I’m nice to a fault and it’s one of my biggest vices in business. This has certainly made it harder for me to navigate the waters of boss and friend as my businesses grow, but I think it’s important to be both to your employees even past the startup phase. Regardless of the all the […]
I’m pretty active online in a multitude of female entrepreneur circles.

One of my most important goals here at Chip Chick is to create a community where every woman can learn to succeed and start her own business. I’ve been lucky in my lifetime to have a mom who supported owning your own business from a young age, and I realize that not every female millennial […]
To be resilient is to be able to bounce right back from any difficult situation. It’s certainly not easy to be and do this, but it makes all the difference in the long run. Everything I have been able to do and achieve as a female entrepreneur I directly credit to my resilient nature, or […]
A lot of entrepreneurs skip a business plan entirely until they do need outside help, and that’s just doing yourself a disservice. Oh, I’m just too busy right now to make one. What I bring to the table is enough to make my business succeed. Stop with the excuses, sit down, and make the time […]

In a perfect world, everyone would help support you in your path to success, and I hate to tell you it’s far from perfect out there. At the end of the day, you have complete control over your life and this absolutely extends to who you choose let in, or show the door. It took […]

Full disclosure: I am a workaholic. There’s really nothing I love more than working or making money, and no, my family doesn’t count here because people aren’t things.
