Looks like my entire team might be on the chopping block soon. One of our agency’s biggest clients just had a major internal shake-up, and the new C-suite is bringing in their own preferred agency—a boutique shop run by the new head’s fiancé (naturally, I did my research). If anyone is looking for a Senior Strategist with brand, creative, and digital experience, I’m open to new opportunities. Appreciate any leads—thanks!

Motivation is key when it comes to bettering yourself, your team and your brand. Without self-motivation, you'll be less likely to inspire your team to work together to better your business. Like a muscle, self-motivation becomes stronger the more you use it. Mastering the art of self-motivation will take some time to become a habit. However, with daily practice, you'll not only better yourself and your business, you'll inspire your team to lead more meaningful personal and professional lives.
