Windy Lawson
Business Coach Windy Lawson offers practical business advice and guidance for the female microbusiness owner.
Microbusiness owners have unique struggles and needs. You don’t need to know how to create a 60-page business plan, get your first $100K in financing, or build a fourteen-point funnel. You need realistic ways to set goals, build collaborations, develop a marketing plan, manage your time, and get stuff done.
I get it. And I speak your language. Goal-setting is my love language. And my mission is to help you achieve your mission.
Forget the tired, boring and unrelated business advice. Practical, actionable, and occasionally hilarious, the tips and tricks Windy offers cover a wide variety of business issues.

Guest post by Johanna Bodenhamer, a two-time Mastermind attendee, on her mastermind experience. The term Mastermind for me always had a high-level, exclusive air that made me feel like I was not quite ready for, or wasn’t necessarily worthy to participate in them. I am glad that I got over that with the first one …
As female microbusiness owners, most of us don’t give much thought to maximizing productivity; we’re just trying to get through the days, amirite? We are so busy busting our butts that we don’t believe we have the luxury of creating some complicated system to be more productive. Productivity sounds like some fancy, schmancy corporate manufacturing …
When it comes to getting the most done as possible in a given day, it’s vital to think carefully about the sequence in which you tackle your tasks. Doing the right job first and the appropriate job last can potentially save you hours – even more so if they rely on other external factors and …
So you finally started digging into your To-Do List and were crushing it for approximately 7 minutes when the doorbell rang, the dog barked, your cell phone dinged 18 times with private messages, tweets, and notifications that your high school bestie’s mom’s trip posted 186 photos from her trip to Aruba, and suddenly it’s two …
