There’s a big world out there. Go get it!

July 11, 2018

In this blog, we dispense advice on the importance of not pigeon-holing yourself before you step out into that great big world. Our Go-Getter talks a bit about what she learned moving through college into a career, and why it’s important to keep an open mind when choosing your life’s path. Things will likely never go quite as you expect! Side note: It’s never too late to start listening to dad’s wisdom. … More There’s a big world out there. Go get it!

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you stop 
to look fear in the face.

Luck is a Tennessee Three Step

June 27, 2018

People who know our friend and Tennessee native Nick Potts will invariably use the word “lucky” to describe him, well before they mention any other of his unique characteristics, (including his infectious laugh). So, when he shared that there really isn’t anything magical about his good fortune at all, but only three simple steps, the dancer in me was intrigued. I wondered if his steps were easy enough for a beginner to master, or would they only apply to someone who already knows the basic moves? I asked Nick if he could explain his steps in more detail, and he masterfully obliged with a how-to manual! And although he refers to the steps as a formula, to me it could just as easily be described as a dance…one which I call the Tennessee Three Step. So without further delay, here’s Nick, in 5-6-7-8. … More Luck is a Tennessee Three Step

Saying Yes When the World Says No

June 20, 2018

Go Get the World is your community, because we know encouragement and support is important to women. Sometimes you are the one getting in your own head that you can’t do something, while other times it’s people telling you you can’t. In this post, I share a story of when I was faced with someone telling me I couldn’t do something, and the lessons I learned from that day. If you have a story when someone didn’t believe in you please write to us and share! You may get a gift from the GGTW team!

Enjoy, and Go Get the World! … More Saying Yes When the World Says No

Thanks, Mom!

March 21, 2018

One of my proudest accomplishments was being part of a company that sold for more than one billion dollars in 2017. My Mom had supported the ups and downs, and didn’t even put the kibosh on my interviewing with this company, which had very little information available online and had posted the job on Craigslist. I think she was as stunned as I was when my hard work paid off and I was a part of making Columbus a “start-up destination.” She always knew how important the phrase “Go get the world” was to me, so the day of the sale, she sent me a congratulations card saying, “I am so proud of you. There is more of the world to get. Always stay humble and grateful.” I knew I needed to figure out a way to give back to the community because I was–I am–so grateful, and I had always wanted to create opportunities and guidance for women to Go Get the World, too. Now, a little more than a year later, we are finally launching the vision! … More Thanks, Mom!
