  1. Contemplation- I SAY I want to do things, but I’m not doing them.

  2. Citation of the week - Get on the stage, already!

  3. Conversation consideration - Are you doing the Hokey Pokey?

  4. Check Your Reality - ask yourself hard questions, and tell Jamie what you think!

Now, let’s sweep the brain…

1. Do you SAY you want to do things? Or do you take ACTION and do them?

Sometimes the struggle is COMMITTING to the profitable idea, MAKING the time to execute, or you just do not know where to BEGIN.

Whatever the reason, let’s figure out which one it is, change those habits and start getting it done.

An accountability partner who understands you and your business goals will keep you motivated during challenging times, create an environment of celebrating wins, and provide a partner through difficult decisions.

You DO NOT have to do it alone. (psst, you’ll be more successful if you don’t!)

2. Citation.

He makes stepping on the stage seem easy.

We all know it isn’t. It’s hard, vulnerable, and feels risky.

As entrepreneurs, we don’t always know where to begin. Want to know a secret? Once you START, your brain sees that it is possible.

That you didn’t "-insert a disastrous outcome here or any of those awful visuals your brain constructed to keep you from moving forward.

Once you keep showing your brain what is possible, you start to rewire those neural pathways, and then the sky is the limit!

3. Conversation Consideration.

Do you pause in the course of making a decision?

Hesitation is fear. Fear of making the wrong decision. Fear of failure. Or even the consequences of success. (wait, wha?!)

Here are some ways to be all-in:

  1. Understand which one it is. Wrong decision? Fear of Failure? The Consequence of Success?

  2. Name it. Say it out loud, write it down, and talk to friends or colleagues.

  3. Practice this: think, then act. (it’s OK to start small!)

  4. Give yourself a timeline or deadline. - Again, say it aloud, write it down, tell a friend.

  5. Commit to making a decision - Without intention, it just won’t happen. Because it doesn’t have to.

  6. Try new things. Start with a minor thing that you can control. Prove to yourself that you can.

  7. Try confidence over fear. Even if the first few times you doubt yourself. Do it anyway.

  8. Celebrate. High-Five yourself, a friend, or a colleague, then relish your accomplishments!

4. Check your reality.

When have you felt sure about a decision you made in the past week? What strengths did you notice?

Oh, Hi! I’m Jamie Chapman


Self-proclaimed brain geek, relationship builder, and business consultant who helps heart-centered entrepreneurs and small businesses execute their big ideas.


I have always been a curious person who thrives on helping others succeed.


Finding solutions is what I do.


When my twin boys were diagnosed with ADHD in elementary school, I had to learn how to navigate a school system that wasn’t built for neurodiverse individuals. By helping my boys find ways to succeed in these spaces, I realized the importance of shining a light on the gifts we bring to the world.


In a society that tries to “fit a round peg into a square hole,” I am here to support entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to take a different path to success.


While supporting small businesses in various industries, I have a special place in my heart for neurodiverse entrepreneurs and ADHD business owners.


Relationships and a holistic, human view of your business needs is something I value.


I meet you where you’re at and support you in getting where you want to go.


With a multifaceted approach to problem-solving, and extensive knowledge of executive functioning, habit formation, and the neurodiverse and ADHD entrepreneur’s mind, I support small business owners to thrive and feel proud of what they’re building.


My background is in manufacturing and business operations. I use my decades of experience with developing systems and processes to make your business operations smoother and more efficient.


As a perspective integrator and big-picture thinker, I want to help you execute your vision, spot inefficiencies, and find effective ways to grow your business.


Think of me as your strategic C.O.O. and partner in business success and growth.  


Whether it’s 1:1 Consulting, MindSweep Mapping, or joining our Chickbook Creative community of business owners, I support idea generators in cultivating clarity and taking action to pursue their best ideas.


My purpose is to illuminate the gifts business owners and entrepreneurs bring to the world. I can’t wait to meet you and get started.


Time with me; Priceless.
