In episode 87 I shared the importance of stepping in to your future self to achieve your big goals, desires and vision. I had so many DMs about that episode and more specifically the guided visualisation exercise, so I've decided to pull it out and share it separately here as a bonus episode so you can come back to it over and over. Enjoy.

There is a lot of content out there right now about what to do to have your most successful year yet, but it's just as important to know what not to do. In this episode, I take you through the five things you need to avoid to achieve your goals and have your best year yet. Firstly, stop listening to all the people. It may seem like the more people you listen to, the more you learn, but the op...

These are not necessarily trends for 2023, but 7 key pillars to help you build your business in the current landscape.  In previous years, there has been so much emphasis on sales, marketing tactics and bringing in certain dollar amounts.

Are you trying to set your goals and you’re struggling to figure out what they should look like? You know you want your life or business to feel different, but you’re not entirely sure in what way. Or perhaps you have big, scary goals, but you’re really unsure how you’re going to get there. This is all so common and I have a bit of a different style episode for you this week to give you the inspir...

The way we run a business has changed. The blending of home and work is more important than ever before. How we live in this world has changed, and what’s available to us has changed. And it’s for this reason you need to be more intentional about designing a business that works for you. What does that actually mean? I’m not talking about an idealistic vision that won’t apply to real people. What I...

Hello Boss, welcome back and a fabulous Happy New Year for you for 2023! I am super excited about today's conversation.

This is the final rebroadcast episode of the year. Boss, you get to choose your version and metrics for success (despite what the internet, friends, family and peers tell you). This episode is as relevant today as the day I released it. Even if you have listened to this conversation upon first release, I encourage you to dive back in again to keep it fresh and front of mind as you round out the ye...

Our summer series continues with this replay episode. Too often we over complicate our businesses and so if you are looking to create more ease and flow in the coming year, this conversation is for you! There are many reasons why we overcomplicate our work and create so much busy work in our business. Often we’re trying to validate our prices, have let it pile on over time or are just too busy to...

Are you tired and feeling a little weary? You're not alone. Running a business can be incredibly exhausting. Physically and mentally. And it can be difficult to switch off.

Well boss, in this *replay* episode I share with you my proven metho...

It’s been a big year and I think a lot of us are wondering where the months have gone! I thought it would be great to share a little behind the scenes today with an overview of what’s been happening for me this year both on a business and personal level.  One of the biggest shifts on the business front has been the introduction of my small group coaching program. I talk about how I had to overcome...

We all know the importance of having a ‘why’. Your ‘why’ is your purpose and your reason for doing what you do. But what happens if you struggle to stay connected to your ‘why’, or you’re unsure how to uncover it? Well, Boss in today's episode I share a new way to approach your ‘why’, breaking it down into three parts, with each component being just as important as the other. First of all, I...

When we feel that things are wrong in our business, we can quickly jump into a reactive state of tinkering. We’ll make changes like changing pricing, altering messaging or shifting our audience focus. Often, we think that making these adjustments will improve our overall results. The problem with tinkering is that when you make lots of little changes, the result is often the opposite of what you w...

I am currently doing a renovation and I love a good analogy, so for this episode, I thought I’d do something a little bit fun and do an episode of lessons learned in building and renovating that also apply to business! I suspect that hidden inside this episode, you're gonna find plenty of golden nuggets. The key lessons we explore:  1. Vision. In building, when we first started planning our h...

One of the most powerful tools we can have in our toolkit as a business owner is to learn how to trust ourselves. You are the expert of yourself and the expert of your business. Yet we still innately look outward for answers. We often think that others know more than us, and that is simply not the case. This episode will help you learn how to cultivate your own self-trust, your own knowing and rem...

You get to choose your version of success. This is a topic I’ve spoken about a number of times on the podcast and today I want to share a practical application of what this looks like in your business.  Something I always say is that your values are what govern your actions. This is true in both a personal and professional sense, and aligning your goals to those values is what helps you achieve su...

This is not necessarily an easy conversation to have, but I do think it’...
