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 Starting a Biz:
Good Question: How Do I Get My First Client?: Curious about how to get your first client if you’re starting your own biz? Alex Franzen has an awesome strategy- one that I actually used myself when I made my big announcement a few weeks ago!
On Social Media:
An Adult’s Guide to Snapchat: If you’re not on Snapchat, you need to get on board. It’s awesome! This primer from Alex Kantrowitz breaks it all down. (Oh, and follow me on Snap if you’re not already! My username is jessicalawlor. I’ll be giving you a behind-the-scenes look at my first week of self-employment there, starting February 1!)
On Yoga:
Four Reasons Teens Should Practice Yoga: My friend Kelsie wrote this awesome piece for Elephant Journal about why teens should practice yoga, based on the inspiring story of one of the teens (Hi, Mel!) both of us are lucky enough to teach each week.
Mirror, Mirror On The Wall: Love this perspective about practicing yoga in a room with a mirror from my friend and mentor, Jennifer. I’ve only practiced yoga with a mirror a handful of times and find it incredibly distracting, but that’s why Jennifer’s message is all the more important.
On Blogging:
Do You Know How To Be A Great Guest Poster?: If guest posting is part of your blog strategy (if it isn’t, it should be!), this post by Katy Widrick is a must read!
This Week on JessicaLawlor.com:
Becoming CEO: Your Questions, Answered: I’m telling all! Here are the answers to your most pressing questions about me quitting my job and becoming CEO. Have more questions? Ask, please!
Goals
- Ah! Finish my last week of work strong. It’s so crazy to have one week left at a job I’ve loved for four years, but I’m ready for this adventure.
- Continue writing proposals, setting up meetings and prepping for my new journey to start on February 1.
