When I first started the Focused & Unstoppable podcast, I launched with the Let’s make it happen series and my goal was to share a message with the world of creative and ambitious women who had many dreams. Who’ve tried it all, but who’s own genius and power got in their way of achieving what they carried in their hearts every single day. Whether it was starting a business or writing a book.The message was this:I struggled for years to make my dreams happen but I finally found a way to bring my projects to the finish line so I’m gonna choose a new project and take you behind the scenes to show you how I do and I’m hoping to inspire you to join along so we could make something happen together!In today’s episode, I update you on my newly launched digital program the Sweet Focus System!And I have a new message for my creative and ambitious dreamers (I couldn’t record this without bawling my eyes out!):I’m just like you.I’ve dreamed of my dreams for a long time.But now, I’ve finally found a way to make them happen.I worked a lot on myself to get there and I thought about you my whole journey.Along the way, I learned that we can still have fun and be fun without the chaos.(You know what I’m talking about. Lol)I learned that our dreams are soo worth fighting for, even if the person we’re confronting is ourself.I learned that it’s safe to put aside 20 dreams to focus on just one.Because those 20, they like family and they ain’t goin’ nowhere.But that one dream we pay attention to and nurture, that dream, it can take us anywhere we want to go. It can even take us back to the other dreams to make those happen too.I also learned that it’s wise to suit up as we carry our dreams to the finish line, to protect ourselves from naysayers, from those words that work against us, those words that make us stumble.You know, on my journey, I thought of you the whole way. You’ve been my motivation to get here, to this moment.Because I know what you’re about and I. See. You.I see your brown eyes, your black eyes,I see your blue eyes, your green eyesI see your coily, curly, wavy and straight hairI see your fair skin and I see your melanated skin.And you know what else I see?I see your dreams and your heart to make a difference in our world.And my heart fills with joy and awe.Me and you.We’re the same.And I just wanted to say that if I can do it, focus on one dream until it happens, bringing what I carried inside my heart out into our world…. You can too.Don’t worry about the “how”. (I got you.)Focus on what you’ll do now.Because your dreams are worth your full attention.With so much love,Olivia

A lot of people are hurting right now. Humans are feeling exhausted and angry that other humans, Black people are STILL losing their lives to state-sanctioned violence and racism.And with the pandemic, families have been torn apart. The news, the images, the posts, it’s a lot, and it’s painful.I felt like this was a good time to share something that feels good to hear, because it’s ok to wanna look around for inspiration and hope especially in a time when we feel like the earth is shaking beneath us.Back in January of 2016, I had interviewed (for my old podcast I’m Enough), a woman by the name of Willie Murphy. At the time, she was 80 years old, today, she’s 83. Willie started power-lifting at the young age of 74! (I just found out that in December of 2019, she beat up a burglar!)She caught my attention because of her powerful life story that I inspired me to believe that it’s NEVER too late.So I thought I’d share this conversation with you as a way to bring a glimmer of hope that:As a society, it’sNever too late to be better.Never too late to do better.Never too late to see better.And in the case of Willie,It’s never too late to get stronger.NOTABLE LINKS:Willie beats up a burglar!

Welcome welcome to the 24th episode of the Focused & Unstoppable Podcast!So happy to have you here today with me and with my special guest Caroline Onyedinma! Caroline helps experts create, market, and sell lucrative offers online and in our interview, she shares some pretty honest tips about the reality of going from a corporate job to making it on your own.She brings her experience to the table and reveals:Mistakes that people ignore when they make the switch from 9-5 to a biz online.And how the very thing you should sell happens to be right under your nose.She also breaks down in a clear of what is a funnel and its importance in driving sales for your business.She gets real about the actions that keep us in “active procrastination” and shares a very simple concept that will help increase your visibility. Hint: It involves consistency.This 43-minute interview is power-packed with so many goodies… you might want to refer to it again and again!LINKS MENTIONED:Idealclientsdaily.comCaroline on LinkedinI can’t wait to meet you back here next Thursday!With gratitude,Olivia :-)

A dream goal I believed would’ve taken me about 12 weeks to reach has taken me 5 months and the clock is still ticking!A brief message of encouragement:Whatever dream you have, whether it’s on the back burner, in the oven or on your plate(I must be hungry!),and no matter how long it takes to feel that you’ve made it...Do. Not. Give. Up. Because your dreams are worth every minute, hour, month or year you spend:Thinking about themPlanning them outTaking action on them andTalking about them,You deserve every second, hour, month or year of happiness and fulfillment your dreams will bring you. With much love,OliviaP.S. Find out more about the Sweet Focus System here!

Welcome to the Focused & Unstoppable Podcast!Today’s episode is a little special and here’s why…Back in 2017, I hosted a Podcast called I’m Enough. (That podcast no longer exists)But I kept the episodes in safekeeping. Now the very first episode of the podcast was an interview I had with Lori Fields.Lori is a licensed clinical social worker, entrepreneur and Mindset & Peak Performance Coach.So, at the beginning of our interview, I opened up to her about a feeling of insecurity I had. And her response to that became what I’ll always hold in my heart as the conversation that changed everything.One of the many life-altering lessons I’ve learned from Lori is how to give myself permission to do whatever it takes to make my dreams come true which in essence is to help you make your own dreams come true.As I’m getting ready for the very first launch of my digital program, the Sweet Focus System (I have a dedicated episode coming up about that), I thought it was fitting to share with you the determining conversation that inspired me to cultivate the respect I have for my dreams today. My hope is that what Lori expresses so passionately in this episode, will inspire you to respect your dreams, love your journey and value yourself more than ever before.I can’t wait to meet you back here next Thursday!With so much gratitude,Olivia

I quickly learned that I had a knack for jewelry design, particularly in my newly defined niche of upcycling vintage costume jewelry and combining uniquely perfect colours and textures in my work. I started bel monili the way most others do: small, single-table craft shows at local churches and schools with the occasional sale to family and friends on the side. Fortunately for me, Pittsburgh, PA is an extremely artist-friendly city, and there was no shortage of opportunities for me to show and sell my work.In 2011, I opened up my first Etsy shop, which proved to be a wonderful success and an eye-opening experience. I learned the ins and outs of product listings, SEO, product photography, and all of the things that go with being a handmade seller in an online world. Over the years, I grew my business by jurying into higher quality shows, cultivating a social media following, and nurturing lasting relationships with my audience. In 2017, bel monili hit the 6 figure sales mark for the first time. I took the leap to move my primary online sales over to my own websi
