My #1 goal is to do my best to help & provide you the info you need to build your sustainable online business. Fair enough? Cool, let’s dive in!
Personal Space.
7-Mins of Meditation
It's no secret that I suffer from Anxiety & burn out is REAL for entrepreneurs so meditation is my jam as part of my daily routine coz #MentalHealthMatters!!
Cost: Free 7 Day Challenge
Workout Anywhere
Truth be told, I'm lazy AF!! However, I do know health is important so this app is perfect for me coz they have variety from 5-min beginners' level to kick-my-butt intense😬
Cost: Membership + Free Vids
Lots of Audio Books
I love books but there's not enough time to read them all! So most of the time, when I'm traveling or not listening to podcasts, I use Audible to catch up on my book selections!
Cost: Free Trial
Project Management.
AirTable
I'm using this tool for my internal projects as it allows me to invite team members & different project views: spreadsheet, workflow, etc.
Cost: Free +
Trello
Perfect for external projects that you share with your clients since they can copy your templates & make their own boards.
Cost: Free +
Miro
This is a very flexible tool that you can use to brainstorm, mind map, create timelines, etc. It also comes with easy-to-use templates.
Cost: Free +
Calendar Scheduler.
Personal Planner
Please tell me I'm not ancient coz I still use a paper planner, but I do. I love the Erin Condren planner (probably coz it has stickers & fun trackers LOL)
Cost: about $15
Book Like a Boss
I compared the price & feature difference of BLAB from Calendly. You definitely get more from BLAB unless you're looking for 100% free
Cost: Free Trial
Kartra Calendar
After comparing dozens of membership-ish tools out there, Kartra comes out on top. They have it all, from scheduling to sales funnels.
Cost: $1 Trial
Design & Branding.
Canva Design Tool
I've come up with a new way to procrastinate - I call it #ProCanvastinate coz their tool keeps getting better & I spend hours on designing sometime.
Cost: Free +
Branded Templates
Not even gonna lie, Canva consumed quite a bit of my time when I first started out. Then I found Amber's templates, which are phenomenal & her FB support alone is worth the $$
Cost: $37+
Snag-It Screen Capture
One of the things I like to do is take screen prints of images / videos to review at a later time. Snag-It is one tool I can NOT live without. Once you try it, it changes your life!
Cost: Free Trial
Social Media.
TailWind App
I've dabbled in pretty much ALL the automation tools. Hootsuite, Later, Buffer, TailWind lets you post to Pinterest, IG & FB seamlessly (even stories) & easily design your post 🙂
Cost: Free +
Response Suite
I've used both JotForm & TypeForm, which have free accounts. But ResponseSuite allows me to have a more 'branded' feel & loving the new features they frequently update!
Cost: $1 Trial
KingSumo
If you want to grow your audience super fast, you can start a Giveaway. KingSumo makes it super easy plus you can get a Lifetime premium deal when you go through their main site

Email Marketing.
MailerLite
Did you know MailChimp ends up in Spam than most email providers? Don't let your nicely written, hard work go to JUNK mail! MailerLite does everything MailChimp can.

SendFox
Some peeps like simple so they check out FloDesk. But again, FD has one of the lowest deliverable % rate. Want simple with lots of features? SendFox has a Lifetime deal on AppSumo.
Cost: Free +
KartraMail
After comparing dozens of membership-ish tools out there, Kartra comes out on top. They have it all, from scheduling to sales funnels. Email automation & more!
Cost: $1 Trial
Website & Landing Pages.
Wix
If you aren't too concerned about SEO searchability & want easy drag & drop, Wix is the simplest tool for you. I personally feel it's a bit limited for functionalities to scale your business.
Cost: Free +
WordPress
Want all the bells & whistles and you're techy enough to manage it? WordPress is the best! But without the right expertise, you may end up with a Franken-website.
Cost: Free +
Site Templates
If you REALLY want to use WordPress, you can save some time & headache by starting with a prebuilt branded-templates. Better than staring at a blank screen.
Cost: $199 +
Membership & Courses.
LeadCart
You can start out with just a Paypal link. However, a payment processor tool gives you more features like upsells, split payments, free trials, etc.
Cost: $49 / m +
Thinkific
I've compared this tool vs Groove, MemberVault, NewZenler, etc. With more features & having been around longer, Thinkific is a good starter tool.
Cost: Free +
Kartra
After comparing dozens of membership-ish tools out there, Kartra comes out on top. They have it all, from scheduling to sales funnels.
Cost: $1 Trial
Podcasting & Audio.
Buzzsprout
My podcast is currently with Anchor.fm but looking at BuzzSprout, they have a free plan plus MORE features. Right now, they're also giving a $20 Amazon gift card for paid plan signups.
Cost: Free +
Headliner
If you want a cool audiogram social media post, this tool makes it super easy! Much better than static images to show off your podcast or any other video training you wanna promote 🙂
Cost: Free +
Otter.ai
Looking for super easy way to transcribe your podcast (or client calls?) You definitely gotta check this one out! Helps you repurpose your audio to written content!
Cost: Free +
Video & Lives.
Be Live
I've tried a bunch of streaming apps, OBS is too complex & FB is still undeveloped, BeLive is easy to use and you can multi-cast to broaden your reach even more!
Cost: Free +
ClipScribe
To get more views & repurpose my videos even more, I sometimes use ClipScribe to automatically add subtitles & change the video size to different social media layout.
Cost: $8 / m +

Hardware & Tools.
BlueYeti Mic
I've tried cheaper mics & using my headphones but these are super nice & the quality is built to last you forever. For a starter mic, the Snowball version works great!
Cost: $39 +
Logitech c922
Yes, you can use the camera on your computer but it never seems to look right. Having a good, reliable HD webcam makes your audience tune in better. While you're at it, get a tripod!
Cost: $70-ish + (depends on sales)
Ring Light
Good lighting is essential to professional looking videos. I recommend the ones that are dimmable coz my skin tone looks harsh on pure white light LOL!
Cost: $70 ish + (depends on sales)
Additional Resources.
Pabbly
Zapier has been a leading tool to stitch a gazillion other tools together. I've found this gem with a lifetime deal & it works for me really well!
* If you go directly on their site, there’s a monthly fee
eSignature
Let's face it. Contracts are no fun to read or send (unless you're a lawyer). eSignature make it easy & it's a $0.49 flat fee for each document.
AppSumo
I love lifetime deal apps. It's affordable & you support another small business! Plus, they are more likely to work with you to deliver exactly what you need!
