Thrive By Design: Business and Marketing Strategy for Fashion, Jewelry and Creative Brands

I’m your host, Tracy Matthews, Chief Visionary Officer of Flourish & Thrive Academy. After 20+ years in the jewelry industry, I believe you deserve to make money doing what you love, without spending every waking minute doing it. I’ve built two jewelry businesses: one that totally flopped after years of stress and burnout, and then one that I built around MY desired lifestyle, which is still thriving to this day. Both were fueled by equal passion and dedication. The only difference is that I realized your business should be built around your lifestyle, not the other way around. I founded Flourish & Thrive Academy because it’s my mission to help independent jewelry designers and handmade product makers like you build a business that THRIVES in today’s market and aligns with what YOU want. Every week, I’m dedicated to demystifying the secrets of the jewelry industry and teaching you tips and strategies that are working now, so you don’t have to learn the hard way, like I did. My Desired Brand Effect Methodology has helped thousands of jewelry designers and makers build and scale businesses that create financial freedom in their lives. Building a business is a marathon, not a sprint, and you don’t have to do it alone. I’m so happy to be on this journey with you.

Happy New Year #ThriveTribe…

Last week, I wrote about 5 words to live by (and tools to set the precedent for your New Year) because, well, it’s the New Year! Time for some massive change!

Which leads me to a kinda personal question…because it’s time to Sage that S#!zz and clear space for an awesome year ahead.
Ready?

Have you ever felt completely paralyzed about achieving your business or life goals? Or creating what you REALLY want in life?

So logically you make excuses about why now is NOT the time. Or I’m not ready for XYZ. Or better yet, I don’t deserve to have what I want. Or my fave, Artists don’t make money.

Even though you need to make changes, you hold your face in your hands and cry out loud saying “Why Me!”

(Hey, this is a judgment-free zone here – I get stuck in the same BS all the time.)

Without going deep into the reasons why this happens to all of us, the root of the problem starts with the “F” word.
FEAR!

Fear is the thing that derails you when you self-sabotage, fall short of your goals, don’t go after what you REALLY want or stay stuck feeling overwhelmed.

I know what it feels like to fall short and let fear RULE you instead of letting fear FUEL you…and that’s why today’s episode is so important.

I asked my friend, Rhonda Britten to come onto the show today to talk about her stretch, risk or die framework to use FEAR as FUEL to reach your goals and grow your business fast this year.

Listen in now to EP182: How to Face Fear to Grow Your Business FAST This Year!
