Last night, I was sitting on the couch, laptop open, looking at my calendar when I heard the thunk.

A toy had just sailed over the upstairs banister and landed directly on my screen.

Cue the crack. The kind of crack where the screen doesn’t just have a line—it looks like modern art.

I couldn’t see a single thing, First name / my friend.

Thank GOD for Geek Squad. (And for the fact that I actually get protection plans on my computers.)

 

But here’s the real lifesaver: I didn’t lose anything.

Not one document, not one password, not one draft.

 

Because everything is backed up.

✔ All my files are in Google Drive.
✔ And every single password—client logins, tools, subscriptions, you name it—is saved in LastPass.

 

So yeah… I’m back on my old laptop, which runs slower than molasses in January. But you know what? I can still access every client file, every tool, every workflow with a click.

 

And that, my friend, is the difference between panic mode and business-as-usual when life throws a (literal) toy at your screen.

 

Tools like Google Drive and LastPass aren’t “nice-to-haves.”
They’re business insurance.

 

Because let’s be real: it’s not if tech will fail, it’s when. And when it does, the question is:

➡️ Do you go into meltdown mode…
➡️ Or do you just log in from another device and keep moving?

Here’s a 3-step system check you can do this week:

 

Pick Your Password Vault
If you don’t have one, get LastPass. It stores all your logins, generates secure passwords, and autofills them across devices. Translation: no more digging through notebooks or reset emails when something breaks.

 

Sync Your Storage
Stop leaving files scattered across random desktops. Move everything into Google Drive (or your cloud of choice) so it’s accessible anywhere, anytime.

 

Test the Backup Plan
Pretend you lost your computer today. Could you log in and work from another device in under 10 minutes? If not, tweak until the answer is yes.

 

Do this once, and you’ll never panic over a cracked screen, lost laptop, or even a spilled coffee.

I’m brewing up something spooky-good this October — the Hallo-WIN Business Bundle — and I’m inviting YOU to be a contributor!

 

This collab is all about showcasing high-value freebies + low-ticket offers (turned free) that help entrepreneurs work smarter, not harder. 

As a contributor, you’ll:
✨ Grow your email list with engaged leads
✨ Earn 20% affiliate commission on VIP After Party sales
✨ Get extra visibility + the chance to sell your offers

 

Requirements are simple: have at least 100 subscribers, promote the bundle with 2 emails + 2 socials, and contribute something truly impactful (no boring freebies allowed 😉).

Spots are limited — don’t miss your chance to make this the most spooktacular collab of the season! 🎃🦇🕸️

Business doesn’t have to be built on chaos.

 

Take a second to:

 

Choose what actually matters today

Hit pause on the busywork

Ignore the guilt when you step away

Let go of perfection

Lean on systems + support so you’re not carrying it all alone

 

Even if your laptop screen cracks (literally 🙋‍♀️), your business won’t. 

 

You’ve got this — and I’ve got the systems to make sure of it.
