Should I hire a coach or join the Elegant Excellence Mastermind?
First, if you can afford to hire a coach, do it!
My first business coach was 30k for the year... The Elegant Excellence Mastermind is less than 300 a month.
I created what I wanted years ago when I couldn’t afford the 10k, 20k, 30k I was being asked for masterminds or a coach.
(The experts inside our mastermind charge a minimum of 1,000/hour for coaching, and you’re getting a minimum of three hours a month with us.)
Second, as valuable as hiring my first coach was, they alone would never have gotten me to where I am today.
Furthermore, being an entrepreneur is so vulnerable and overwhelming, I see now I put far too much expectation on my coach when they were all I had.
If the person you’re dating or married to is your only friend, it puts so much pressure on them! I’ve realized the same in my business.
More people means more safety, more diverse insights and wisdom, more support.
It also creates a healthy balance of your confidence not coming all from one person.
I passionately believe the Elegant Excellence Mastermind is the most affordable and healthiest community available to you.
http://elegantexcellencemastermind.com/
I want us to be emotionally healthy, financially healthy, work/life balance healthy.
Tune into my workshop to hear what I mean, get a taste of the teaching style, and tons of free teaching that will bless your business immediately.
I’m committed to growing your confidence in YOU, not in me or us, as you are the heartbeat of your business and we’re here to support you.
Your confidence in making decisions for your business, is what the tools in this masterclass are all about -- save your seat today!

I have a confession... I’ve been thrown off course many years in a row by spending way too much time on projects that were good, but weren’t my PURPOSE.
A big keynote speech. Planning multiple weddings. A beautiful new product…
But after doing this exercise, I've never been more clear about my vision for the next year.
That's the power of slowing down and asking the right questions. Of leading your business with intention, versus letting the weeks fly by as you chase fires.
I believe in doing less but better, in focusing on what matters most, on making choices in business that really support my personal life and my professional dreams... I've come to call it Elegant Excellence.
And that's what this is about.
My 2020 Vision: Design Your Business Masterclass is back {by popular demand} with a big twist, to help you have the best year yet! 😍
Honestly, I find exercises and journaling like this so fun!
But it's also the lifeblood of our business to have clarity, wisdom, and intention. To tune out the noisy world and find what's RIGHT for us, our life, family and business.
The exercises in this workshop will help bring clarity and get you ready to lead your business with intention now, for 2020, and beyond. And the two signature principles I'll share will help you approach business decisions like you've never been taught before.
Registration is free but closing soon...
Squeeze in while you can! 💋
Creative Planning Workshop Join Hilary Rushford on a free planning workshop for creative entrepreneurs
Hey love, I owe you a sincere apology.
I wasn’t planning on sharing this with you, till I realized it’s affected you.
I recently discovered something that was happening in my business. The sort of behind-the-scenes I wouldn’t normally bring you into, or at least not until much later.
But there was a straw that broke the camel's back, so to speak, when I realized this is affecting you and you’re deserving of an apology.
The scenario is complicated, so I recorded a special bonus episode as today’s podcast. (I didn’t give it a number as we may remove it at some point.)
Not only do I share the behind the scenes of my company and team, but what I’ve learned the hard way about how we trust in relationships, both personal and business.
This was hard to record, but I trust it’ll be worth it when you listen.
Have you ever felt underwater? Like you’re drowning in overwhelm or self-doubt?
Have you ever cried in the shower, finding that water begets water? Felt like you’re just treading water, trying to stay afloat?
Have you ever struggled to overcome anxiety and depression? Me too.
A year and a half ago I filmed a raw, vulnerable video about the challenges of being an entrepreneur, the challenges of being a woman feeling beautiful in her body, the challenges of overcoming anxiety.
I’ve never shared it before, but in celebrating my 7 year business anniversary, it felt like a perfect gift to share.
It was filmed by an incredible crew from London and New York, and commissioned by a church, so you’ll notice there is some light spiritual language but I trust you can put your own beliefs around every insight I share.
If you’re a woman, I trust you can share in my feelings around beauty and my body.
If you’re an entrepreneur, I’m sure you can empathize with my experience growing a business.
If you’ve ever struggled with anxiety or depression, and/or if you’re a person of faith who believes in God, I hope this provides some encouragement.
(I saw this for the first time in a theatre of 400 women and it gave me chills to hear them exclaim “Wow…” so many times as in “Wow that’s true, I didn’t realize it but yes…”)
In the 18 months since this was filmed, I can say that I got from 80% to 100%.
Watch the video to see what I mean.
And also that 100% doesn’t mean you’ll never be swept back into the waves to feel underwater again.
What it does mean is that you know you healed once, you survived, and you thrived, so you can do it again...
PS A bit of an awkward direct question, but are you a Christian? Some of our audience is, and so I’m starting a small “faith list” for those who want to hear more about that topic from time to time. It’s not what I teach on here at Dean Street Society, but is a part of my personal life behind the scenes, so click here only if you’re interested:http://dss.pages.ontraport.net/faith

We have a new website! 🍾 I first asked my team to start working on this 2 years ago with the idea it would take 2 months.
•
Yet life takes longer than we want it to. In conversations with my friends lately whether it’s walking thru grief, waiting to meet your husband, losing weight, a creative or business dream come to life... we want things in 3 months we can’t bear to know will take 3 years.
•
Back in NY recently Beau + I walked past “the place where dreams go to die” (aka the miserable office job I had when I started Dean St). He said, “If you then could see you now!” And he’s right. I never dreamed or desired things as wonderful as my life is right now.
•
Yet I replied, “If you’d told her how long it would take she would have said she’d die!” And I’m right. If I knew how much longer it would be before my business was sustainable + a myriad of other things, I would have felt devastated not believing I could survive for so long.
•
And yet we do. We think 3 years is an eternity, until we look back + see the way it all unfolded in the right timing.
•
So if you see someone else having what seems like fast progress in their life, remember it may have taken a lot longer behind the scenes than what you see.
•
So if you’re feeling impatient, discouraged, defeated, stuck, take heart that everyone has this experience + it’s no marker of whether it will happen, or of your ability/worth to make it happen.
•
Oh + the website is at like, 80%? (For anyone behind me in the journey, almost 8 years in business + still don’t have the perfect website.) We’ll keep tweaking it, but the world doesn’t need your vision to be perfect to start enjoying it.
•
Now pop over to our new site (link in bio) + explore all the loveliness we’ve created for you! 🍾
•
PS Any entrepreneurs who can relate or are encouraged by this reality of timelines??
