E370: Your "Fair" Price Might Be Hurting Your Business (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You can be so committed to being fair to everyone else that you accidentally become unfair to yourself. And when you're building a business, a nonprofit, or a legacy, that doesn't just cost you money. It can threaten the very thing you're trying to protect. Are you charging what feels "fair" while quietly leaving yourself out of the equation? In this episode of PivotMe , April challenges leaders, entrepreneurs, and nonprofit executives to look at the way they price, negotiate, and give. Because
E369. REP: Body Doubling: The ADHD Productivity Hack That Makes Starting Easier (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Sometimes the hardest part of a task isn't doing it. It's getting yourself to start. And when your brain has decided that taxes, paperwork, cleaning the garage, or that one annoying admin task is absolutely not happening today, more discipline may not be the answer.

In this episode of PivotMe , April explores the Pygmalion Effect and the enormous influence expectations, environment, and proximity have on performance. We often think peer groups matter because of networking, introductions, or business opportunities. But April argues that the real power runs much deeper: the people around you change wh
E366. REP: Stop Measuring Your Life Against Your Past (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Just because you've survived worse doesn't mean you should settle for this. Your past taught you resilience. It was never meant to become the standard for the rest of your life. How often do you justify staying in a situation simply because it's better than what you've experienced before? A better job. A healthier relationship. A less demanding client. A business that's "good enough." In this episode, April challenges one of the most common mindset traps among high performers: measuring today's
