Most of us are used to working our life around our work, right? But lifestyle entrepreneurs flip the script. They plan their life and work their work around them. 🏖️ It's all about prioritizing what truly matters!

Join me as I walk along the beautiful beach in Cancun, Mexico, and share my experiences as a lifestyle entrepreneur. From leaving our home and traveling full-time to finding the balance between work and personal life, we'll delve into the world of working on our business instead of just in it. 

Get ready for an insightful and inspiring episode as we explore the ups and downs of this unique entrepreneurial journey. 

Most of us are used to working our life around our work, right? But lifestyle entrepreneurs like Deanna Cooper Gillingham and her hubby decided to flip the script. They plan their life and work their work around them. 🏖️ It's all about prioritizing what truly matters!

So, here's the deal: Deanna and her hubby have been traveling full-time for over three months! 🌍 They left their home in Mexico and embarked on a journey filled with conferences, coaching, and workshops. How's that for some serious hustle while exploring the world? 🌟

Last year was their trial run, and this year they went all-in! First stop: Scottsdale, Arizona. They had a beautiful home and managed to balance work and play effortlessly. Plus, Deanna found time for early morning hikes and walks on the beach. Talk about living the dream! 🌅

The next leg of their adventure took them to Las Vegas for a conference. It was all about networking and collaborating. But it was in Sedona, Arizona where Deanna found the perfect blend of lifestyle and entrepreneurship. Morning hikes, meditation, and quality work hours. 🌿

Deanna discovered that taking care of herself first actually increased her productivity and energy levels. By prioritizing self-care and establishing routines, she was able to work smart and enjoy life to the fullest. It's all about that work-life balance, folks! ⚖️

Of course, being a lifestyle entrepreneur isn't all sunshine and rainbows. After intense coaching sessions, Deanna often felt emotionally drained. But the rewards of helping others achieve their goals outweighed the exhaustion. It's a labor of love, my friends. ❤️

Family time also played a significant role in their journey. Deanna and her husband spent quality time with loved ones in Pennsylvania and even had a mastermind session with entrepreneur friends. The power of collaboration and bouncing ideas off each other is truly invaluable! 👫

As they wrapped up their time in Western Pennsylvania and returned to Mexico, Deanna couldn't help but appreciate the balanced lifestyle they have created. Mornings for work and afternoons for family time. Structure and flexibility, all in one package. 🌻

If you've ever dreamed of combining work and adventure, lifestyle entrepreneurship might just be your calling. It's all about making conscious choices, prioritizing self-care, and finding a balance that works for you? 🌈

Ever caught yourself complaining about a situation without taking action?🤔 It's time to shift your mindset and determine whether you're looking for excuses or ways to achieve your goals!💪

1️⃣ Obstacles vs. Excuses:

🔹 Obstacles can be overcome, they're the real reasons why something isn't happening.

🔹 Excuses are fear-based and hold you back from taking action.

Remember, just about everything can be overcome if you truly desire it and are willing to work toward it.💡

2️⃣ Surround Yourself:

🔹 Connect with people who have similar goals or are reaching for their own.

🔹 Join masterminds where ideas are shared, excuses are tossed and support is given.

Empower yourself by surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals who uplift and motivate you!🙌

3️⃣ Seek Guidance:

🔹 Consider a coach or consultant who can help you navigate your goals and assess if you truly want them.

🔹 Take advice from someone who has achieved some success and understands your goals.

Remember, learning from others' experiences can steer you in the right direction.🚀

4️⃣ Embrace Mistakes:

🔹 As healthcare professionals, we're trained to avoid mistakes at all costs.

🔹 However, in business, mistakes are learning opportunities, stepping stones to the right decision.

Shift your mindset and become excited about making mistakes because they bring you closer to your goals!📈

5️⃣ Action Trumps Perfection:

🔹 Waiting for the perfect moment to take action rarely happens.

🔹 Start taking small steps towards your goals, no matter how imperfect they may seem.

Remember, small actions compound over time and lead you to success. Don't wait for the perfect moment, create it!⏳

6️⃣ The Baby Effect:

🔹 Many successful entrepreneurs have felt the "baby effect" - a newfound urgency to change their lives when starting a family.

🔹 Use life's time limits as motivation to pursue your dreams and make them successful.

Don't wait for life to happen, make it happen!🌟

So ask yourself, are you looking for excuses or ways to achieve your goals?💭 Challenge your mindset, take action, and empower yourself to reach new heights!✨ Remember, you've got this!💪
