Entrepreneurs, this is the book

you didn't know you needed.

Good to Grow empowers both new and seasoned entrepreneurs to cultivate the

mindset and habits to thrive and build a successful business and life they love.

Good to Grow is based on my experience of taking the leap from my corporate job to start my own marketing consulting business in 2013. Part memoir, part pocket mentor, the book reads like a chat with a friend who's been through the entrepreneurial journey and sharing the inside scoop.




#1 best-seller in six categories on Amazon including Self-Employment, Entrepreneurship, and Women & Business

Ready to go from feeling lost and overwhelmed to feeling confident and empowered?


Rather than focusing on the nuts and bolts of building a business, Good to Grow focuses on the internal changes you need to make in how you think and operate when shifting from an employee to an entrepreneur.


The book includes a compilation of my insights and actionable advice, heartfelt personal stories, practical exercises, and wisdom from over 30 contributing women business owners.



How Good to Grow Came to Be


A LinkedIn post I shared on the day of my eighth anniversary of starting Good to Grow Marketing became the inspiration for Good to Grow. In the post, I shared a photo I took the day I left my corporate job and reflected on where I was at today.


It was one of my most viewed posts, and I received a flood of personal messages. It led me to think more deeply about what I had accomplished shifting from the corporate world to creating my own consulting business.


It also made me think back to what motivated me to leave my job, the challenging experience of deciding to forgo the safety net of a successful career and to reflect on what I’ve learned over the years. I realized how sharing what I’ve learned could be of value to other women taking the same path.


I'd always felt like I wanted to write a book, but I didn't know what it would be about. As more and more people started asking me about my experiences and the Universe confirmed for me a number of times that this was something I needed to do, I said yes.


After MANY early morning writing sessions and lots of learning about the world of publishing, Good to Grow was birthed into the world in September of 2023.
