2017 was no joke. I learned a lot, laughed a lot, moved a lot, and grew A LOT. Today I'm sharing 10 things I learned throughout what I'd call one of the toughest years I have had to date professionally. So many great things happened, but a lot of really big changes came with the growth too I wasn't quite ready for in so many words so I'm hoping my ten things can inspire you to have a conversation with yourself about what you learned this year too and what you're going to take into next year. We, as a team, are sharing our ten things so it's been really fun to hear where everyone's been and is headed as we dive (read run like hell) into 2018.

Competition is real in whatever you're doing. Whether you're a mom, small business owner, at your first job, you-name-it there's always seems to be someone trying to compete with you, canigetanamen!? In this episode I deep dive into channeling annoying competition into competing with yourself and how to deal. When I started Packed Party I let the "copy cats" bother me so much and four years later I can warn anyone at what a time suck this is giving energy to these types of things. Here my quick steps for turning the anger into a positive experience and pushing yourself or your business to the next level - it sounds corny but it totally worked for me and here I am today having expanded from packages to a full fledge lifestyle gift brand. If I can do it anyone can - I promise you this! Now let's kick the annoying competitors aside and focus on making ourselves the absolute best we can so there's no room for any distractions.

Work life balance is an on-going battle...and you guessed it, a major balancing act. On this podcast I'm talking about the ways I best balance my life outside of Packed Party, how to "turn off" and even measure your phone usage with apps like this one. I'm just as guilty as the next person for overworking myself or letting my work bleed into my personal life, but it's finding whatever that center point is for yourself and how to manage it with these tips and points I make here. I hope this episode helps you find some balance in your own life and turn off a little bit. People will remember how we made them feel when we were truly present, they won't remember us answering an email on a Sunday, so grab some perspective and a cup of coffee for this one.
