I left you to your own devices for a month. Did you miss me? 

There are times in life when you need to put everything you have into building something that matters to you. That's what I've been doing, and everything else has needed to take a back seat while I've done it. 

I've been building you a magazine and a membership site. I've been integrating and editing. I've been putting in place training for your mind, resonance for your soul, creativity for your heart, and an engine room to help pad out your wallet. It has been a HUGE task, but once it's done I won't have to do it again. 

During the time I've been doing this, I've had an accident that left me with a dangerous infection and a four-inch scar on my leg.

I kept going.

Then I caught a virus.

I kept going.

Then I got an infection in my eye and couldn't shut it properly.

I kept going.

I've had tech breakdowns.

I kept going.

I've had emotional breakdowns.

I kept going. 

I lost many weeks worth of work.

I...

Thoughts and prayers alone aren't helping with the pandemic of violent attacks we've been seeing in the news lately. 

If only there was something we could all do to help shift the planet a little closer to peace.

I believe there is, and it starts with a conversation. That conversation could be with a friend or it could even be with yourself. 

Here's your free audio training about how YOU can help the world become a more peaceful place today. 

Feel free to comment inside the product, but please also copy and paste your comments here so we can keep the conversation going on the blog.

I appreciate you.

Rebecca. 

Wow. Sometimes, the timing on things just blows my mind. This'll be a woo-woo post, so if that's not your thang, skip it. However, if you're open-minded to other people's experiences, suspend disbelief for a few mins and let's chat. 

Bill and Ted Are Back!

First things first... OMG! Bill and Ted are coming back!!! Having a Gen X moment. We don't have many of them, so expect caps and exclamation graffiti. You have been warned!

Bill and Ted may seem a daft little Gen X film to many, but it's so freaking deep. Trust me on this. Philosophy, religion, visions of peace, and time travel. What's not to love?

Bodacious!

Second things second... this is FREAKY. At the time of writing, this news was literally just announced a few minutes ago. Bill and Ted did their bit in the 1989 (Second Summer of Love if you were in Britain. It. Was. AWE---SOME!) Anyway, I randomly thought about the word 'bodacious' the other day. I've heard maybe one or two people say it in the last decade. "That's it"....

If you're here on the day I posted this, you're entitled to access the course I've made on this FOR FREE!

If you got here late, entry to the party is on a sliding scale. Check here to see where the pricing is today.

Here's how Freedom Friday works:

• On the first Friday of each month (and sometimes other Fridays too, if I'm feeling super-generous) I will release a mini-course on this blog to thank the loyal members of the Indiepreneur Academy Community (A.K.A. Kickass 'Clockerflies'). 
• For the first Friday the course is FREE
• For the next Saturday the course is $7
• For the next Sunday the course is $27
• Then it goes up to $37-$497 ongoing

Loyalty PAYS

Loyalty matters to me, so I incentivise the heck out of...

I'm scurrying away, getting all of this sorted at the moment, and you should be too. The deadline to get your online space legally compliant with the new rules is 25 May 2018.

Here's the dry info. If you're very left brain dominant, it might make sense. Have fun! 

Most of us don't have the time to filter through the 350 articles the site lists about GDPR, so I thought I'd give you a blog post as a resource you can skip through in an afternoon instead of needing to turn back time so you have enough time to go through all of this. Sound fair enough?

This is super-complicated legal stuff, so I'm not even going to attempt to explain it. Instead, watch these videos by my epic planning chum Sophie Jewry and GDPR genius Neil Penny and get your ducks in a row or unicorns in formation or whatever...

Good luck!

Are you a cat person or a dog person? Pet preference aside, whether you act more like a dog or cat is at least partially down to when you were born. 

Understanding this won't just help you to squeeze more value out of your marketing budget, and make more sales, it could also save you from brain damage. 

Seriously.

This training is so powerful that I couldn't just throw it on my blog, so I've turned it into a mini course for you, and I'm giving it to you absolutely free! Yep. Grab a pen and some paper, it's go time! A couple of things first:

1. I'm giving away prizes to my best blog commenters. There is a space for comments inside the course and I'd love to see your comments there, but copy and paste them here too. The course will open in a separate window so you can pop back here easily and paste them in to be in with a chance to win.
2. Share this around! If you get value from it, I'd love it if you'd use it to help us grow this community. The more of you commenting...

 How I'm not charging for access to this is beyond me. This is basically a webinar, so grab some snacks and ban your kids/pups/clowns/unicorns from the room for an hour and take a bunch of notes. This is one of the best bits of training I've ever made available for free. I may not leave it free for long, so share it around, because it's PURE FREAKING GOLD!

In it, you'll learn:

• How to bring your higher self into your business
• What to do about privacy concerns online
• How to create peace on the planet (seriously. Stay on until the end for this.)
• The nature of coaching, and how to be a kickass coach
• Things you must ask yourself when choosing a coach
• How to be able to coach both beginners and celebrities (it is HARD. You have to be committed to taking MASSIVE action on self-development to pull this one off)
• And much, much more

Put a comment under this post with your big a-ha moments from this video. 

Please share this around on social media. There are easy buttons to do that....

Hey. So. How's it going? Relationship good? Nice. Well done. Feeling healthy too? Awesomesauce! Now... how's your wallet? Open it up. Any dust fall out? Ah. Yeah. Could be that you have a money mindset ish. No probs. Start from where you are and move forward, right? So today I'm going to give you a couple of resources to help you.

Thing one is that I'm going to give you a super-cool review of an awesome audiobook that will help you with this (and you may even be able to get it for free if you go through my link, so give it a bash.)

The second thing is an interview I did with a former client of mine back in the day, which you'll find under this post (Ray Higdon. Very successful Dude in the Network Marketing world) about this very subject. 

Enjoy. Share if you like. Leave comments with your lightbulb moments. I give away prizes to the best commenters, and the next prize I'm giving away is a ridiculous offer on a course I'm making featuring Brendon Burchard (I know,...

“I am not what I think I am, and I am not what you think I am. I am what I think you think I am.”

Charles Horton Cooley

When you find someone who inspires you, you need to observe them. Listen to them. Shadow them. Learn about the process. Experience the wisdom of someone who's already walked the path. If you feel that I'm your mentor, it's time to start watching this blog and my social media. See if you can get to the point where you can predict my responses to news events or market shifts. See where you stand related to that. Humble yourself and follow. Most won't. Some will. Those who will find someone to follow intentionally (not 'stalk' which is just weird, but study) experience wisdom at a level that those who skip about never do. 

I pick specific mentors and immerse in their mindset for months or years at a time until I have sucked the marrow from the inspiration in the bones of their manifestations. I buy all their stuff. I hire them as a coach - or hire...

So, gender's a big issue right now, huh? Amirite? Yep, hold onto your hats. I'm going there.

First, the stuff I remember from sociology class back in the day.

• Sex is the biological stuff you were born with. It's the physical definition that decides things like how you pee and your tolerance for different medications. This stuff is important by the way. However you self-identify, you still need to have somewhere on your record that you were born a particular sex so that meds don't kill you. Anti-depressants and anti-psychotic meds are an example. Also, alcohol is metabolised differently depending on the sex you were born. Women have less alcohol dehydrogenase - the enzyme responsible for the breakdown of alcohol. So if you transition from female to male, you're still likely to get liver damage if you drink the same volumes as someone who was born male. Sex is usually, but not always, a binary arrangement. You're male or female. When this is not the case (about one time in every...
