Does your blog feel stuck, stagnant or stale?

Hi, I'm Hope
My journey into blogging started years ago, when "Live Journals" became a "big thing".
In the last 15 years, I've worked as an Event Producer for a national charity, running one of the largest conferences for television producers in the world. I was also a renaissance festival performer for about 4 years. But when my husband and I decided to start a family, I focused on my small event photography business. That is when I found blogging for business and discovered what a powerful tool it can be!
Since then, I have personally built 3 businesses through blogs, over 50 blogs for other companies and worked to create a programs that will help others build their businesses. Over the last 2 years, I have taught over 400 bloggers to build their dreams into WordPress reality.
