If it wasn’t for my chiropractor, Dr. Nick McGregor, I’d be walking on all fours. Seriously. I can’t imagine the pain and discomfort I’d be in if it weren’t for the adjustments I’ve received from Nick over the years.
There are times when I have minor aches — the kind I can resolve with stretching, yoga, or sleep. When I won’t be able to heal myself, I know it: I feel a lack of strength in the affected area; I sleep poorly; I’m not able to perform simple daily tasks; getting dressed is a challenge. At times like those, I don’t hesitate to schedule a chiropractic appointment because I know my condition is not going to get better on its own.

DISC is a behavioral model based on the work of Dr. William Moulton Marston (1893–1947) to examine the behavior of individuals in their environment or within a specific situation.
I was introduced to this system recently. I haven’t studied it in great depth yet, but I plan to because I think it gives us as solopreneurs a framework for understanding ourselves, our clients, and our collaborators.
DISC also can help us:
• Identify our weaknesses
• Identify growth areas
• Identify our fears
• Explain our motivations

Last week I went in search of an online scheduling application. I thought I would find the perfect scheduling app for my business within an hour or two. Sigh. That was not nearly the case.
The Backstory
I needed a more efficient method for my solopreneur coaching clients to book appointments, because I didn’t think my “system” of setting up appointments via e-mail was adequate anymore. Plus, I wanted to give clients the ability to book online without leaving my Web site.

My greatest thrill with The Solopreneur Life comes in helping those of you who are aspiring and new solopreneurs. I enjoy working with you newbies (and I use that term affectionately!) through my Web site and my coaching because I can have the greatest positive impact with you. The learning curve as a new solopreneur is very steep, and this is when coaching services are needed the most.
I have two other reasons (both are selfish) for wanting to work with new solopreneurs: your tremendous enthusiasm energizes me and makes my days a BLAST!
