Enjoy some of my go-to biz resources (and favorite things!) to help you in your journey. Some of the links below are affiliate links, which means I might earn a small commission if you love something as much as I do... but I only recommend what I actually like myself!
fAVORIte THINGS
My #1 pick. These are website templates re-defined & re-imagined. They are strategically laid out, include copy prompts & provide an aesthetic framework that motivates you to work ON your site (not just dream about it!) I can customize your Tonic Templates in my Platform Power Program. Save 15% on all templates with link below.
When you're ready to go PRO, Show It is for you. My #1 pick for a premier platform & website builder for personal brands, leaders & service providers. The layouts are sophisticated, the templates are stunning ($ varies), the blog possibilities are limitless & it's easy to use (even for the novice). All Tonic Shop Templates are exclusively designed for Show It.

Plus, it's not just newsletters, you can do landing pages, forms, funnels & more. Save 50% monthly for your first year with link below.
If you're a course / program creator (or desire to be)... Kajabi is the premier platform to start building / evolving your online empire. Don't second guess it...it has everything ALL-IN-ONE that you'll need as opposed to the other 'cheaper' options. And yes, you'll cut costs with those but you'll need a whole lot more to bridge it together and you'll soon realize that Kajabi already had it ALL.
If you're not in love with Canva yet (or may not have heard about it), you really need to! This is the tool that makes or breaks your social media--from graphics to reels and everything in-between. Canva is like your branding HQ living all in one place and in-real time.
Look no further for the best fonts, design elements, Canva social media templates, pre-sets and more. Creative Market provides both inspiration and actual assets to add to your brand.

M-61 Power Pads
This is when you need to pack a little more punch and power. Still clean yet, has more potent ingredients like hyaluronic acid & glycolic acid for deeper penetration. The Vitamin C, HydraBoost & Power Glow all come as individual pads so easy to use plus, travel with.
Lashify
I love the enhanced 'lash' look, yet after years of lash extensions (and 'many' fills) plus, falsies that seem to never do the trick,
I gave up until I found Lashify! Lashify has re-invented home lashes with a natural (or plush) effect with an easy application.

The secret weapon for your dark cycles. Instant Eye Lift is just that... the boost you need for illumination and brightening around your eyes. Perfect for video or filming and photo-taking or really anytime when you need that 'lift'.
