Building Up Women In Property

International Women's Day is coming up just around the corner and every year it reignites a conversation around women's roles in society. If you've been listening for a while, you’ll know how passionate I am about seeing more women in leadership positions within male dominated industries and recognised fairly for their contributions across society.  There is a tremendous opportunity...

I often talk about the patriarchy that exists within the property industry with the boys clubs, mansplaining, and frequent assumptions but the amazing truth is, we currently have the highest levels of female participation than ever before. More and more women are beginning their career journey or progressing into higher roles and it is an incredible time to be involved. So, to honour all of the re...

Or you may have been feeling like you’ve been under earning for a while and don’t know where to start. Firstly, under earning has nothing to do with how much money you earn in isolation. You could be...

Women in the construction and property industry have been the minority for such a long time and often have to face so many obstacles that occur from working in a male dominated industry. In fact as of 2023, only 13% of the construction industry are women and only 36% of the property sector are women. Two of the most important obstacles are the very limited number of women in leadership roles and t...

We often put so much pressure on the new year as the moment for everything to change. But the truth is, everything changes when we make the decision for that to happen.  Instead of new years resolutions that ultimately fade and lead to discouragement, I want to talk to you today about creating long lasting habits to set yourself up for success in a sustainable way.  You get to create a new possibi...

We are well and truly on the home straight to Christmas - truly my favourite time of the year. I love that everyone is in a festive mood, people are starting to relax and think about the new year and the goals they have for themselves. This time of year is also a time connection. But this time of year also comes with obligations and often, it involves us spending time with people we don't nec...

The people who are really killing it in life, the people who are truly happy, doing well and making a big impact on the world aren’t that way because they played it safe. Those people live life on purpose. They strive for something much bigger themselves, they choose how they want to live and take action to make it happen. If you’re like me and you want your life and career to be everything you co...

Is your career thriving? If not, this is your opportunity and your message from the universe to do something about it. In the episode today, I discuss why we need to stop waiting for tomorrow. We can all relate to this feeling on some level. We commonly give ourselves a date in the future when we think we will have the energy, resources and courage to go for our goals. The reality is, we get to th...

Have you hit a brick wall and are not quite sure where to go next? This is a common feeling at some point in our careers. I see it the most for women at the mid-career point. It’s here you are proficient and highly competent in what you do, but taking the next step in your career isn’t as easy as it once was. I want to let you know this is perfectly normal. Not only that, it’s the perfect time to...

If you’re an ambitious woman, you’ve probably been told at some point that you’re too ambitious. Maybe it was your boss who said it, or a well-meaning family member. We’re here to tell you that it’s not true! It is not selfish to put yourself first and pursue the career you really want.  First and foremost, it is important to remember that you are worthy of pursuing your goals. You are not defined...

There is a lot of discussion currently around the topic of women in the workforce. In particular, how we as women can break through the barriers and female stereotypes that exist within the patriarchal society we all live in.  If you’re a woman in a male-dominated industry, you’ll understand the challenges of being boxed into a stereotype. You’re either the nice girl who is polite, accommodating,...

Today I want to talk about something a little bit different. I woke this morning to the news of Queens Elizabeth II’s passing. I thought this would be a valuable opportunity to reflect on the life of a truly remarkable woman, and what she teaches us about who we are, and how we show up in our lives. I know for most of us, Queen Elizabeth II has been the only monarch we’ve had. Having such a steadf...

Today we are talking about how to get recognised at work. There is nothing worse than showing up to work, doing a great job, creating outstanding results, and then not being recognised for it.

In this episode, I’ll take you through seven tips to get recognised and...
