We get into out heads and we plan and stress a future that hasn’t happened yet. This stops us from the action taking, from the doing. You wont know every single step of the path until you start walking it. Get out of your head and get moving sister! LINKS: Join the Waitlist to BUY MY BOOK !

If you're struggling right now, I want you to really sit with this and take it all in. It's okay if you're not doing well - 2020 is hard work y'all. But don't expect anything to change, don't expect to start to feel better if you're avoiding your issues. If you're running away from your problems, trying to sweep them under the rug and hope that they'll go away - I'm sorry but they won't go away. You're not meant to do this on your own. Who do you have in your life that you can lean on? Who can h...

The other night my husband and I watched a show on Netflix called "The Social Dilemma". If you haven't watched it yet, I highly recommend checking it out. There was a lot of negativity portrayed in here around the use of social media and how it has turned into a bigger marketing machine than anyone could have anticipated. It got my husband and I thinking and chatting about how we use social media, and how it can be used for good but how important boundaries are when using it. If you have childre...

You might think that being confident means that you don’t get scared, you don’t feel anxious and you don’t 💩your pants. But my love, confidence is uncomfortable. You’re scared, you’re sweaty, your pooing your pants but you’re doing the damn thing. Confidence comes from action.

One of my beautiful Instagram followers messaged me recently letting me know she was struggling with making decisions. She was in a relationship with a narcissist, there was gaslighting going on and she was really struggling to make her own decisions as a result. So how do you stop being indecisive? It's not something that just happens. You need to practice making decisions all the day. Stop asking for outside input and go within yourself. The more decisions you make, even if they start out real...

I have been in some terrible relationships y'all. If you've been following me for awhile, you'll know the kind of men I used to date and the way I allowed them to treat me. I was jealous of other women, jealous of what they had and I felt like I could never have that. But after years of working on myself and marrying the most wonderful, respectful man, I thought I was past all of that jealous bullshit. But something came up for me recently that was unexpected.I was on Hamish's phone on the explo...

I'm writing my first book right now and the journey I am on with this is incredible. I am going deep into my childhood to try and understand the timelines of so many things that I can't really remember.

I don't know timelines, I don't know ages and I...

If you've been following me for awhile and know my story, you'll know that my childhood was hectic and through this time I really rejected spirituality and religion for many reasons that I go into during this episode. I didn't believe in anything. I thought religion was terrible. I wasn't spiritual and life was just full on all of the time. I was always fighting, always angry and always cautious of anything spiritual.Then I met Hamish. Now anyone who knows my husband or follows him on social med...

I need you to take a minute with me here to delve into this topic. How other people act, react, think, feel and speak is out of your control. What they believe, their life circumstances, what they've seen is completely unique to them and as a result of their experiences, people will behave according to what they believe to be true. You may not agree with them, but you don't have to be an asshole. You don't have to sit there judging them or assuming who they are based on something completely surf...

Y'all know there's a lot going on right now. Whether you're in lockdown or not. It doesn't matter where you are, we all know that 2020 is a lot. It's heavy and we all recognise it. But I'm not here to tell you that it's heavy. You already know that because we're getting blasted with images, stories, videos all over our social media platforms. And if you let all that in, if you let yourself go down a rabbit hole of all the bad shit that's happening right now, you'll start to feel really heavy.So ...

There is a lot to unpack on today's episode y'all. I had the pleasure of being interviewed on Leigh Mathew's podcast "The Good Problem" a couple of months ago, and she was asking me questions that I'd never really been asked before around doing good, and what that really meant. It was a really interesting conversation, and the more I've learned about Leigh, the more my eyes have been opened to the incredible work that she is doing in the world. This is a woman on fire with a purpose and I'm so p...

I've been battling with myself a bit lately because I want to do all the things. I want to serve all the people. I want to reply to every message, every email, every DM on Instagram and I want to be there for y'all. But the thing is, I'm tired. I've got a husband. I've got kids. I've got other things to do in my business and I realised that I was setting these unrealistic expectations for myself as to how much I could achieve. In the beginning of building my business I was able to reply to every...

We're so hard on ourselves, and especially right now with all the craziness that's going on, we really need to give ourselves a break. Look y'all, being a human is hard work. We've got so many things going on all the time and there are so many opportunities to fuck things up, and we will. That's a guarantee. You've got to have patience and respect the process. You've got to work on cutting yourself some slack and just chill out. Stop trying to swim up stream and just go with the flow sometimes. ...

I get a lot of messages from women saying things like, "No one is speaking up for the beauty industry, the LGBTQ community, single mothers..." etc, it could be any niche. They're wanting more to be done but for some reason don't think it should be them that uses their voice. They wish something more was said or done for a certain community, but they don't do anything themselves. Consider that perhaps that's your purpose calling you to action. If you are passionate about something, then use your ...

Today's episode is an IGTV from my Q&A Tuesday show. The question was:"How do I tune into my intuition? I feel like I'm blocked. I feel like I don't get messages. How do I know if I'm have intuition or not and why do I feel like it's not coming through for me?" We often hear the word "download" used when people are talking about listening to their intuition, and that might not be a word that resonates with you. Maybe you think that because you're not getting "downloads" that you don't have i...

My love, I want you to really listen to me here. If you're wondering why you're not getting what you want, most of the time the answer is simple. You're not doing the work. I've said it before and I'll say it again and again, but if you aren't willing to go into the depths of yourself and really look at who you are - the shadow self, the mean girl that lives inside of you, then you'll never be able to get the results you desire.I know that if you listened to what I'm saying and did the work, you...

As you may know, I'm writing a book about confidence. It's something that I have wanted to do for awhile and y'all know I've got a lot to say on the topic. So I've been trying to figure out how to actually write this thing. I googled it, I got transcripts from my podcast episodes, I wrote things out on sticky notes, I was doing my head in over it. I felt stressed and I wasn't getting anywhere. So I started thinking about something that I learned from Dean Graziosi when he said that he doesn't fo...
