The 9 phases of exponential growth - Listen to this if you think you've hit a plateau

When you’re working towards your big life goals and it feels like you’re not really getting anywhere or moving as fast as you’d like to and you’ve hit a plateau, it’s natural to start questioning if you’re even meant to achieve this at all. Everyone around you may be telling you to go down the safe path because they care about you and don’t understand the journey you’ve embarked on. You’re feeling impatient with your growth but ultimately, deep down, you know it’s not about how much time it take...

42 reverse-punches - destroy the drama of the goal

Do you feel yourself stuck on a plateau so you start setting goals to try and break through? It can often feel like setting a goal is shooting a paper aeroplane off a cliff and hoping it lands where it's supposed to go. It's full of wishing, hoping and visualisation and not being certain. Or we can become so fixated and we work ourselves so extremely hard that we end up feeling completely empty and not enjoying the process. In today’s episode, I’m going to help you stop fixating over the outcome...

Harvest the gold from your past to help you thrive in unknown territory

Have you begun a new path into unknown territory and feel a bit lost, a bit unsure, and like you’re a complete newbie again? It’s both very exciting and very scary at the same time. I work with a lot of creative entrepreneurs, coaches, people who are building businesses, and people who want to create an alternative life for themselves from the traditional job roles and so often I'm helping people transition from one space into another. What I’ve noticed is we start to believe we’re at the very b...

How and where I find my clients, and how you can too - without getting your boobs out on socials.

I get asked this question all of the time in my group training programs so I thought it would be really fun and helpful to share it today with you. I know that often people think that the perfect marketing strategy or shiny new website will get you a whole heap of new clients but it’s just one piece in a pie. You can have the most amazing marketing, but if you provide a terrible customer experience, your clients feel incredibly stressed working with you, all the payments are clunky, and your cli...

Planners are cute but they won't make you more organised. This will.

We all love planners. They’re cute, funky and bought with the best intentions to organise and revolutionise our lives so we get the most out of every day. I’m no different, I have the cutest little planner in the world and I love tracking everything BUT if we don’t have a practice and system for using them, they’re just going to be a fancy notebook sitting on our desk full of our hopes, dreams and lists. In today’s episode, I’m taking you through the system that has changed my life - the weekly ...

The Energy Audit: How I designed my life and business

Today I have something special for you if you want to become more productive, more energized, more joyful, and want to live a meaningful life that is specifically designed for you. As creatives and high performers we tend to take on a lot of extra responsibilities and obligations because we don’t want to let anyone down and often they’re stressing us out and leaving us with no time to create. So how do we gain clarity around how we spend our time - by conducting an energy audit. I invite you to ...

Listen to this if you never see the results in your physical world

What happens when we feel we’ve achieved an amazing transformation internally but just don’t feel like the external world has changed that much? It can even often feel worse than it did before because you’ve made such incredible internal shifts while work, relationships or your finances feel stuck. In today’s episode I’m going to teach you one of my favourite Superfreak high performance habits where we look at the extraordinary and bring the ordinary back. I use this tool every day to help my cl...

Calm Your Farm

On today’s episode I’m checking in on how you’re implementing the advice I gave in my previous episode about ridding ourselves of New Year’s resolutions. Did you slip up and get absorbed scrolling endlessly through Instagram looking at the constant posts about setting resolutions? Don’t worry I’m here to help you unclench and start breathing again. This episode is for you if you want to start 2023 differently from every other year but don’t know how to. You’re probably already feeling stressed, ...

The Four reasons why someone says no to you or your work

As a coach, I have a lot of conversations with my clients about the offerings that they’re putting out into the world. It is so exciting launching something new, running another round of a program or opening up a new way for someone to work with you, but how do you handle the inevitable rejection? You can feel like you’re doing all the right things and It can be a real hit to the ego when your offer or service is met with a “no”. I want to remind you that there are a number of reasons why someon...

Let me ruin new years resolutions and plans forever

What’s the thing you hear most about at the beginning of the year? New years resolutions right? As someone who is passionate about the topic of goal attainment, I’m telling you right now, don’t bother. If you’ve made new years goals and resolutions, I’m telling you today why you need to throw them out the window and what you should do instead. Statistically speaking, only a tiny fraction of people actually reach their new years' goals. Most people plan according to their current reality and base...

A year of this word? My '22 Review

My martial arts training taught me to take 24 hours to celebrate, commiserate and move on, no matter what happened. This is my final episode for the year, so I wanted to take this opportunity to do a little review, letting you in on the thoughts, feelings, challenges, and the highs and lows of my year. If one word could sum up 2022, it’s contraction. As much as I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions, I love a good personal review and do this on a very regular basis. I talk about staying focused...

The Business of a home

A topic that comes up a lot in my coaching circles is making our spaces more beautiful and organised, to flow with our lives and express our personalities. A lot of us carry the mental load of the home, even while working, raising kids and all the other life things. So today, I’m talking about running your home like a business and 4 steps to domestic adulting freedom.

Don't rise to the occasion - do this instead. (Listen to this especially if you're about to quit your job).

We don’t rise to the occasion, we sink to the level of our training. You might have heard this before, it can be said in many different ways. We can rise to the occasion but I’m asking you not to. Why? Because, as you’ll learn from this episode, too much pressure for too long causes really big problems. Problems like burnout, exhaustion, anxiety, depression, diabetes, and heart disease. All kinds of problems! But there is one thing that can help and that is preparation. So many people go all in ...

When you have Imposter Syndrome, empowerment won't cut the mustard. Here's what you need.

I have a lot of conversations with my high performing clients about imposter syndrome and often these clients don’t even identify as being high performers because of this issue. So today I’m tackling the topic of imposter syndrome and, as usual, I’m doing it in a way that you might not expect. One way to look at imposter syndrome is that you just have an outdated idea of who you are. You’re still thinking about yourself as the way you were before and you need to update that picture of yourself. ...

16 signs you need a holiday, and 5 ways it will make you money

I am just back from a delicious three-week trip to the United Kingdom, to see my gorgeous friend get married and a side trip adventure to Scotland. It was wonderful. My husband and I ate cream tea, drank whiskey in bars, explored castles and did long beautiful drives (as well as picked up some cool new sayings along the way). I am someone who, probably much like you, finds a lot of meaning, new perspectives, inspiration, energy, flow and mindfulness through travel and adventure. Travel makes you...

There are no rules!

In this episode, I encourage you to think about creating authentically - from your own inner desires, wants, values, time, energy and body. I use creating a coaching practice as an example but this can be applicable to anything. I spent a lot of time in the early days of my coaching practice, doing things a certain way because that was how I thought they should be done. But what I have found more than anything, is that when I can tailor an experience for a client that suits me, it’s a hell yes f...

Better sex with NLP

Today we are getting super freaky talking sex and Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP). That’s right folks, it’s not reserved for formal coaching situations - NLP transcends everything we do. If you’ve never heard of NLP before I take you through exactly what it is, specifically the neuro component, the linguistic part and the programming bit. NLP is a way of understanding how we perceive the world, how we take in information, how we mess with it in our minds and how we put it back out in the worl...

The three wheels of a successful coaching practice

I really believe everyone can learn the skills of coaching and that if everyone had these tools, and the ability to practice them, the whole world would benefit. However, having a successful coaching practice is an interplay of factors that go beyond being an incredible coach. The way I perceive it, there are three layers to a successful coaching business - 1) you and your own genius/niche, 2) understanding the way the subconscious mind works and 3) the business of coaching. Understanding these ...

When your hard work isn't paying off

I want to talk with you about a conversation I have with pretty much everyone I’ve ever worked with as a coach - what’s really happening when your hard work isn’t paying off? You can really start to question yourself here. Are you doing it right? Are you nuts for wanting it in the first place? The self-talk comes in at this point, and it can really alter your direction. You can choose to buy into those thoughts or you can keep going. In the world of high-performance (be it business, sport, life)...

Today I’m continuing with my business brand of Superfreak to share three tips for business inner peace. These simple reminders will help to support you in gaining a big picture perspective, making aligned decisions, and importantly, gaining inner peace.

The mistake I made in business that cost me a lot of stress

Business is an incredible personal development journey. I’m so passionate about helping people have the full picture of business, not limiting themselves to classic business knowledge but broadening their awareness to develop the sustainable mindsets, strategies and skills they need to grow. The biggest mistake I made in business was thinking I had the complete picture of business and getting frustrated when I wasn’t seeing growth. Great sales and marketing alone do not create a business owner w...

Maybe you’re in business for yourself and visibility can be an issue for you or you feel awkward having attention on you or you don’t let yourself be seen in your relationships.

Wild, impossible goals are the next SMART goals

Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time bound goals. These are the only obtainable goals, right? Wrong! The SMART method is just ONE way of thinking about goals. And quite frankly, it feels more like a to-do list than a dream that you’re turning into reality. If you have some wild, impossible dreams right now, this episode is for you. You’re moving from highly functional to exceptional and I’m giving you permission to break the mold. When you allow yourself to really dream, you’re br...

In this episode, I continue the theme of understanding your subconscious and break down some NLP techniques to help you foster the art of conversation and have great comebacks. I talk about understanding the ...

How to have more compassion for people you think are stupid, crazy, incapable

That time of year has rolled around again. We’re going to gatherings and festivities and it can be so easy to become triggered by friends and family in emotionally charged situations. Everyone has different filters for how the world works, and these ideas shape our values, interactions and conflict with others. The purpose of this episode is to help educate and guide exploration into how to be more compassionate towards people you think are crazy or stupid. It helps to ground us when we recognis...
