Brooke Saxon-Spencer, is the Founder + Editor of Belong Magazine. Introvert, Starbucks addict, M&M fiend, wife to her college sweetheart, mother of three, work-from-homer, midwestern girl at heart living in SoCal, dabbler in all things crafty and pursuer of Christ. As a creative introvert, Brooke began blogging a few years back looking for “her people” and “her place”.  Blogging didn’t bring her instant friends and the cozy comfort of community just by having an existence on the internet. In fact, it made Brooke feel even more lost and alone. Brooke has a desire for people to use the screen in front of them to connect beyond that screen. To discover “their place” and find “their people". This is the soul of Belong Magazine. To create a space to highlight some of the amazing resources--networks, conferences, other bloggers, etc... The world wide web is exactly that - a gigantic, messy mass of roads through which it is incredibly hard to find any destination, especially if you don't know what exactly you're

Trends for business, clothing etc.  She wanted to know when we say, "what the hell, that looks fun" and when you deliberately say "no!" to a trend.

Hey gals, Danielle here. Maybe you can relate to this feeling: complete cluelessness. Yes? I believe we have all been there. I consider myself a pretty determined and inquisitive person, but there is only so much you can find when you have no clue what you are looking for, you know? YOU KNOW?! Back in 2011, my first FULL year in business, I was really good at one single thing: observing. I made a habit of watching, listening and paying very close attention to what the other businesses I saw online doing. It wasn’t creepy, I swear. One name kept coming up over and cover: Marie. Who was this mythical Marie of whom I heard so many speak? Ms. Marie Forleo, I came to realize, is like —  the Beyonce of online business and she opened my eyes to something very important: everything is figureoutable. HELL YES, it is! That’s what I was doing – I was figuring it out. That’s actually what I believe we are all always doing: just figuring it out.  However, UNLIKE everybody, some of the people I observed were lightyears ahe

Success for Dana is: Getting excited about waking up in the morning... when you want to jump out of bed because you've created a life where the day is full of t

Our Friday Coffee Talk episodes are a time for Danielle and me to chat about anything and everything. We are so happy this community enjoys hearing us talk about things that often get discussed at a coffee shop, the things you tell your girlfriends. Today we are sipping coffee and talking about failure. Why it is okay to fail. How failing at something can help you learn new things about yourself. Danielle and I list a ton of things we failed at over the years. It was actually a lot of fun to look back on the things we didn't do so well at.  We learned we both started projects while our husbands were at OCS, both of our projects failed!

She does this by speaking, writing, coaching, and hosting workshops about branding, strategy and personal development. When she’s not helping her clients build a digital empire, she can be found watching Netflix and eating pizza. Maya's version of success: Living a life that makes you feel full and complete. I realized somebody else's definition of success didn't necessarily match mine. I had to create my own idea of success for myself in order for me to be happy and fulfilled. Things we chat about with Maya: leaving her comfort zone, which included dropping out of college, which her parents did not approve of why she would walk away from a business that is doing well financially if it isn't doing it for her anymore she talks about having discipline to keep going even with she has no motivation being scared to launch each new course/product why she
