A video going over my top 8 integrations and my favorite 7 extensions for Squarespace.

That's why The Capable Collective was created.

Because I have a vision for a space - where women run business in the integrative way that comes so naturally for us.

And we all thrive while doing it. Because there is a desperate need for us to push away from the hustle culture. That exists in digital business.

Because there needs to be an informational hub where the curtain is pulled back on the mechanical side of business. We are in this together.

Every so often it’s important to go through your website to make sure it is working for you in the best way possible! That it’s communicating your brand values, SEO friendly and showcasing your most important products and services.

So here’s a quick list of 12 things you can update on your website:

Here's how to create a custom 404 page for your Squarespace site, giving your users a better experience.

We all know I love Squarespace because it’s just so damn user-friendly! That said, there are a few settings that need shifted for nearly everyone I work with. The reasons I make these changes range from usability to design to search engine optimization, but ultimately they each help take your site up a notch.

“I’m not ‘techy’.” I hear this all the time from the women I work with.⁠⁠

The thing is that it’s almost never true. Once my clients have been walked through the basic steps of using a new software, website platform, or email marketing tool they realise that it’s easier than they ever thought it would be! ⁠

You are more than capable of handing the tech in your life and business.

I’ve grown so much and have a much healthier relationship with money and how I can use it for good in my life and to invest in the relationships and small businesses I love.

However, I really wanted to make the money stuff in my business really easy. I didn’t want to be bogged down by spreadsheets or those awkward “hey, you haven’t paid me yet’ conversations.

So I made sure I was using great tools! I filed my self-assessment tax return a few days ago and it took no math. Because my system had all the answers for me!

The more I talk about websites and how important they are, I get a lot of questions from women looking to learn more about how to create a beautiful website that helps them serve their clients or customers!

Here are 6 of my most frequently asked questions and the answers.

The first three things I do when I begin a new Squarespace website is adjust the colors, fonts and upload a logo.

When everything is set to match the brand of the business from the start, it makes envisioning where you’ll place the content and how things will all look together way easier.

I know it sounds cliche, but growing up in a small town in Eastern Oregon (upper left USA), I never would have imagined that I would one day live on the other side of the world and have a fantastic business that allows me to help women grow and scale their own businesses by simplifying their customer experience with bespoke websites and streamlined systems.

I’m a firm believer that creating a system can be easy AND that doing so will save you hours of time and sanity. It can stop you from missing steps or dropping the ball and means you don’t have to keep everything swirling around in your head.

There’s been some big and exciting changes with the update, but there’s also some frustrating drawbacks. If you don’t have a website yet and are looking at Squarespace, I would still highly recommend it. Or if you already host your website and are thinking about rebuilding it on 7.1 - here’s a list to help you make sure it’s a good fit for you!

Being able to show up in the inboxes of people who love and want to hear about your business is an incredible opportunity. You can share your business journey, best tips, and offers with a community of people who want to hear from you - this is invaluable to your business!

It’s a brand new decade and I’ve been reflecting on how to start out on the right foot! I’ve listed the top 10 things to stop doing in 2020 as well as the top 10 things to ensure you find fulfilment and enjoyment in the new year!

Time, money, and energy are all essentially the same thing.

Let that soak in for a minute.

We must be mindful of what we spend in each category and each person’s version of an “ideal” balance to strive for is different. Some people (like me!) love to craft and find that spending their time and energy creating something they could buy is absolutely worth it. However, this isn’t the case for everyone.

It took a few things happening all in a fairly short time frame before I felt like I could AND should take Calibrated Concepts on as my only form of income….

Do these and you’ll be on track to have a fantastic and stress free month because you’re awesome and opted to delegate, automate and systematise right at the very beginning. Doesn’t it feel freaking awesome?

This summer, I’m taking two trips to the US to visit my friends and family! One is a few days in NYC for a gals weekend and the other trip is a full 3 weeks back in Oregon to visit my other home. This has really gotten me thinking about how prepared we, as entrepreneurs, need to be to actually get the most out of a vacation. So here is my foolproof formula for finally getting away from it all for a bit.

Solopreneurship offers the incredible opportunity to call your own shots and answer to no one (except maybe your clients). However it does create a unique set of struggles that other types of entrepreneurs don’t always have to face (or at least have to take on alone). I’ve been speaking with other solopreneurs to discuss some of the biggest pet-peeves, struggles and challenges they face. Are you running the same sticking points in your solo business?
