This is a special in-between episode from me, Kate, and it’s about copy. Writing copy is one of the thing things I like to do most in my business, but I almost never talk about it. The two people I have learned the most from about copywriting are Marie Forleo and Laura Belgray, and they’ve put together a free class called 5 Writing Mistakes That Are Killing Your Sales and How to Fix Them. In this class you’ll learn how to be yourself in your writing, overcome writer’s block and organize your thoughts. You’re going to learn how to write words that drive your sales 24/7, how to write faster and with more joy and ease, and save yourself years of trial and error and thousands of dollars on expensive copywriters and lost sales! Learning how to write copy dramatically increased the revenue generated in my business, and it’s the single most important skill that I have ever learned in business. You can reserve your seat for this free class at http://katenorthrup.com/copy, take action and start seeing dramatic results!

Today’s episode is one of the most important we’ve ever recorded, and you’re going to hear about the email Kate got from our guest that got it all started (and led to some tears). Patricia Moreno is our guest, and in this episode she peels back the curtain on the illusion that our culture sells us about being thin, and how “fatphobic” we truly are. This conversation created so much awareness for both of us, and it will really change the way we look at ourselves and the world around us. Patricia Moreno has been training, mentoring and educating people all over the world for over 30 years. In an effort to end her own struggles with her weight, eating disorders and body image issues, she created the intenSati Method, which combines her expertise in fitness, dance, martial arts, yoga, nutrition, mediation and spiritual practices. Encouraged by her own transformation and the life-changing stories of her students, she has gone on to create several other workouts, courses and workshops. Patricia is committed to being a powerful force of change in the world and she continues to find revolutionary ways to uplift her students and help them change – both inside and out.

One of our company’s core values is gratitude, so today we thought we’d share the importance of it and how we put gratitude into practice on a daily basis.
