Dear Coach DQ,

“Summertime seems to be a slow period. What could I be doing to keep myself in the game?”

DQ says:

Slow season? Not on our watch. Summer’s your secret weapon—not your setback. This is the perfect time to reconnect with your network, try something new, and lay the groundwork for 2026.

Take yourself out for a “coffee catch-up” (yes, iced counts). Attend that workshop you bookmarked months ago. Dust off your goals and give them a summer glow-up.

Pro tip: Track your progress. One of my small business clients increased their annual revenue by 13.7% just by checking in monthly. Numbers don’t lie—how’s your progress looking?

Ready to make this your most strategic summer yet? DM me “SUMMER STRATEGY” and let’s map it out!
