The Hidden Trap of Being Great at Content 09.07.2026 25:52
If your content is flying, your audience is growing and people already trust you, you might assume the hard part is done. But visibility alone can leave your business feeling surprisingly fragile, especially when sales depend on constant posting, launches or your energy being at full capacity. In this episode, I’m exploring what brilliant content creators often need next: strategy, structure and a...
How to Stop Your Revenue Dictating Your Mood 02.07.2026 20:02
What happens when your business income dips and your nervous system immediately decides everything is falling apart? In this episode, I’m talking about how to stay emotionally resilient when your bank balance is not behaving the way you want it to. I share how to zoom out, look at revenue patterns, identify where safety already exists, and focus on the fastest routes back to cash flow. We also loo...
The Business Advice I Ignored That Made Me More Money 25.06.2026 20:35
There is always another platform, trend, funnel or shiny strategy promising to transform your business. In this episode, I’m sharing the advice I ignored, and why doing less, with more intention, helped me make more money without diluting my brand. I talk about choosing one platform, nurturing a smaller audience, keeping your tech simple and resisting the pressure to chase every new idea. Because...
The Truth About Building A Personal Brand When You're Introverted AF 18.06.2026 22:07
In this episode, I’m talking about personal branding when you’re introverted, visibility feels wildly uncomfortable, and the internet is getting noisier by the second. With AI-generated content, bots, misinformation, and a whole lot of online doom, it’s becoming even more important to build a brand that actually feels human. I share my own journey with visibility, why confidence comes after showin...
Behind the Scenes of a Brand-New Funnel 11.06.2026 26:11
In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of a brand new mini offer funnel that became profitable straight out of the gate. Yes, the data is early, and yes, that is exactly why I wanted to talk about it now, because this is the bit most people skip over when they share their shiny “look what worked” stories. I’m sharing what I’m tracking, what I’m not touching yet, and why testing is such...
The Truth About Mini Offers: What Made Me Money (And What Didn't) 04.06.2026 27:00
In this episode, I’m breaking down the good, the bad and the slightly chaotic reality of the mini offers I’ve run since 2021. Mini offers can absolutely work, but only when they’re built at the right time, for the right reason, and with a clear path into the rest of your business. Otherwise, they can quickly become a very pretty distraction. I’m sharing the lessons behind More Bang Less Buck, 10 D...
Is Your Identity Holding You Hostage In Your Business? 28.05.2026 18:54
In this episode, I’m talking about the sneaky ways our identity can quietly keep our business stuck, even when we know exactly what would move the needle. From funnels to speaking gigs to ads, the thing we resist is often the thing that could create the most freedom. I also share a client conversation that properly blew my mind, why “I’ll do it when…” is usually a very expensive sentence, and why...
You Don't Need A 5AM Start, Do This Instead 21.05.2026 20:38
In this episode, I’m talking about how to better leverage the time you already have, without forcing yourself into a 5am routine, adding more hours to your day or pretending that burnout is a badge of honour. Because the most profitable, sustainable businesses are not built by doing everything. They are built by being intentional about what actually matters. I share the time audit exercise I use w...

We talk about how to turn a retreat vision into a...
How to Set Yourself Up for an Ease-Filled, Profitable Summer 07.05.2026 18:59
In this episode, I’m picking up from last week’s conversation about taking August off and getting into the practical bit: how your business can keep making sales without you being glued to your phone, filming reels from a sun lounger or hunting for flattering angles in full daylight. Honestly, no one needs that kind of pressure. I’m talking about mini offers, simple ads, smart positioning and why...
How I Take August Off Without My Clients Or Cashflow Suffering 30.04.2026 29:19
In this episode, I’m talking about how I take the whole of August off, and no, it is not because I have magically become a zen goddess with a colour-coded calendar and zero inbox drama. It is because I have built my business to support the life I actually want. I share the real reasons this matters to me, from burnout and long Covid to grief, parenting and finally deciding that rest is not a rewar...

The Million Eye Balls Test - Is Your Business Ready? 16.04.2026 24:41
What if loads more people suddenly found you, would your business actually be ready for them? In this episode, I'm getting honest about why visibility is not the magic fix people think it is. More eyes on your work can absolutely create momentum, but only when your foundations are doing their job and making it obvious how you help. I talk about the difference between being interesting and being th...
When Being Gentle With Yourself Has A Limit 09.04.2026 22:20
In this episode, I’m sharing a very honest look at what this winter was really like for me, mentally, physically and emotionally. I talk about the season I was in, the ways I let myself retreat too far, and the moment I realised that being gentle with myself had quietly tipped into something that was no longer serving me. I also get into the wake-up calls that pushed me to make a change, from my d...
Healing the Mother Wound to Build a Healthier Business with Shelly Sharon 02.04.2026 51:57
In this episode, I’m joined by Shelly Sharon for a deeply honest conversation about the mother wound, and the way our earliest relationships can quietly shape how we show up in business.

The Simple Solution To Daily Sales In 2026 26.03.2026 14:51
In this episode, I’m talking about why mini offers matter so much right now, especially if selling has started to feel slower, harder or far less predictable than it used to. I break down why this is not about adding another gimmick to your business, but about giving people an easier, lower risk way to step into your world and start building real trust. I also share why buyer behaviour has changed...

She is brilliant at cutting through the noise and reminding us that copywriting is not reserved...
Why Hiring Marketing Specialists Can Break Your Funnel (And What Actually Works Instead) 12.03.2026 23:38
In this episode, I’m talking about a mistake I see so many experienced entrepreneurs make when they are ready to grow, and honestly, it makes complete sense why it happens. On paper, hiring more specialists, building more assets, and adding more moving parts can look like the next smart step. But in practice, it often creates more confusion, more expense, and way less clarity than you expected. I...
Why Lead Magnets Fail for Wellness Practitioners (And What To Do Instead) 05.03.2026 23:30
If your list is growing but your sales are not, this episode is for you. Today I’m breaking down why most lead magnets fail, especially for established wellness practitioners, and how the wrong freebie could be quietly costing you serious money. This is not a tweak the copy situation. It is a structural issue in how your front door is designed. I share the difference between attracting curious sub...
How To Build A Sustainable, Scalable Online Business In 2026 26.02.2026 35:00
Today’s episode is a little different. I’m reading my newly revised Profitable Practitioner’s Guide, updated for 2026, because so much has shifted and no one seems to have sent the memo. If you’re a coach, therapist or practitioner who feels stuck at the same revenue ceiling despite working incredibly hard, this is for you. I share the three funnel mistakes I see over and over again, the identity...

Personal Brand in 2026: Why It Matters More Than Ever (And Where AI Gets It Wrong) 12.02.2026 29:16
Today I’m getting honest about something that didn’t quite land in my last launch, and how AI played a part in it. I’m sharing the uncomfortable lesson that reminded me why personal brand cannot be outsourced, not even to the smartest tool in the room. We’re talking about where AI is genuinely useful, where it quietly flattens your voice, and why convictions, standards and clear positioning are no...
Behind The Scenes Of My £25K Month 05.02.2026 28:41
I promised a conversation about authority and personal brand in 2026, but instead, I decided to take you behind the scenes of my business. This episode is a transparent look at what a £25k month actually looks like when you’re in the scaling phase, not the beginner stage and not the flashy six figure launch headlines either. I talk through what worked, what surprised me, and what didn’t quite land...

We talk structure without rigidity, decision fatigue, boundaries, nervous system care, an...
Women, Wealth & Why No One Taught Us This with Cleo Nedd 22.01.2026 50:13
I was genuinely excited to record this one because money isn’t just numbers, it’s identity, safety and nervous system stuff we’re rarely taught to look at. In this conversation with Cleo Nedd, we talk about why so many women can make money but feel strangely uncomfortable holding onto it, and how that links back to money trauma, family patterns and being one of the first generations really buildin...
