Start your week right! Every Sunday I post my favorite links from around the web and share my goals for the upcoming week.
Links
On Work/Life Balance:
Why We Abolished Our Vacation Policy: Social Media Explorer CEO Nichole Kelly details why her company got rid of their vacation policy and instead lets employees take as much time as they need to come to work refreshed and inspired. I LOVE this type of forward-thinking!
On Getting Gutsy:
Getting Out Of Your Comfort Zone- Why It’s Hard and Why You Should: You better believe when I saw this blog post, I immediately got excited! I mean…just look at my blog’s tagline! This smart piece is a must-read by Belle Beth Cooper.
I Got Gutsy!: I absolutely love when my Get Gutsy message inspires others! I was so excited to see that Courtney pushed herself out of her comfort zone and opened up about her struggles with infertility on her blog to help other women. She’s also now pregnant! Congrats!
On Business:
30 Ways To Support Women Entrepreneurs: Heather Whaling details 30 awesome ways women can support and lift up other female entrepreneurs. If you haven’t already, be sure to check out Heather’s side project The EM.co, dedicated to supporting women entrepreneurs.

This Week on JessicaLawlor.com:
Praise for Get Gutsy: I’ve been making some small tweaks to the site and one of those is a brand new page: Praise for Get Gutsy. On this page, you’ll find testimonials from those in the community about the blog and Get Gutsy e-newsletter.
Do You Need To Go To Grad School?: Do you need to go to grad school to advance your career and salary? For creatives and entrepreneurs, the answer is no. Here’s why.
Goals
- Continue the process of updating pages on my site. This week, I added a brand new Praise page and in the week ahead, I hope to really hone in on my About page (a daunting task!)
- Get ahead on work and freelancing…I’m heading down the shore for a couple of days next week and want to be able to completely relax and disconnect from work.
