About a year ago, I was in a funny place.. I was coming back from maternity leave and feeling a bit lost.   My business was growing, I was finding my new normal juggling work and family and I had BIG goals I wanted to tackle for TSBC.   Yet I was feeling all kinds of resistance and was struggling to take action.   Then, I was asked to join a mastermind group with six insanely talented women and my life changed.   What's a mastermind? It is a small group of entrepreneurs who are at similar levels in business. The group fosters community, provides accountability and is often led by an expert who provides coaching, guidance and structure to the program.   Serious magic happens when I get together with these ladies.   Ideas take flight. Challenges feel less burdensome. Resources are shared. Action is taken. Progress is made!   My Proof to product podcast is a great example of how influential my mastermind has been in my business.    Recording a podcast is something I've wanted to do for years, but never made it a priority until my mastermind group gave me a nudge. I started recording episodes before I even knew what to call the show or when it would launch!   I struggled for months to name the podcast on my own, yet in 45 minutes with my mastermind group we came up with the name Proof to Product, sketched the cover art and reserved the URL and social media handles. Something I had been agonizing over for way too long was solved in under an hour!   After that, I grew my team, we set up systems for the podcast and we launched the podcast 6 weeks later.   Everything fell into place. Momentum propelled me forward.   It was magical and I had never experienced anything like it. I was hooked.   I strongly encourage all of you to join a mastermind group - whether it’s mine or another one.  Amazing things happen when we put our heads together.   Learn more about our TSBC Group Coaching and Mastermind program at www.tradeshowcamp.com/coaching
