The Confidence Chronicles

This is a lesson that I'm in the middle of right now. As ya'll know, I recently had surgery and it's been full on. I've been pushing myself too hard, running around still doing all the things without truly acknowledging how I'm feeling. I'm sore. I'm tired. I've got a million thoughts happening with all the things I want to do. I'm so passionate about a...

It’s been a big year.  A BIG year!  As most of you know, I recently had surgery to have my breast implants removed after 13 years and then a breast lift.  Ya’ll it really knocked me out and I really didn’t think it was going to be such a big deal.  It took a lot of time to heal and now I’ve hit the ground running with live events starting back up and so many things happening, including my birthday...

I'm back y'all. I can't begin to describe how incredible I feel. I still have some swelling and some pain, but nothing too bad at all. I'm feeling like my normal self again and it feels amazing to have a clear head and energetic body. What this space y'all - we've got all the things to plan! This is the third episode in my breast implant removal series. Make sure to l...

It has been a weird few days post implant removal surgery. The pain medication has caused some really tough side effects that caused me to feel like I've been in a daze for the last few days. I couldn't focus, my headaches were intense and my expectations as to how quickly I'd be able to bounce back from this were way off. This has been quite an intense experience and has required a...

Ya'll know I like to keep it real, so over the next few episodes on the podcast, I'm going to share with you my journey through my breast reduction surgery. When I was 23 years old I had a breast lift done because I was really self-conscious with the way they looked at the time. They were big still, but they were saggy and I really didn't feel good about them. So I had a lift and in...

Y'all know there's a lot going on right now and there are a lot of people that are not speaking out, because they feel like they don't know what to say, or they're going to get it wrong, or they don't know enough. I'm here to tell you that's not good enough. It's not good enough to stay silent because you're not confident to speak up because you don&apo...

My love, I have a very special guest for you on the podcast today, Madhavi Shankar. I found her when I was looking through Ted Talks and came across a really interesting talk that she gave around gender bias and women's empowerment. Y'all know I'm all about the women's empowerment and I felt called to have Madhavi on the podcast to share her story. Madhavi is the real deal. She...

With everything that's going on right now in the USA around the murder of George Floyd, I have been feeling really heavy. So I decided to record an IGTV to address a lot of the comments, posts and conversations I was witnessing online. If you'd like to go and watch the IGTV, head to my Instagram.  Listen stop feeling guilty for being privileged and start taking action to make some much n...

We're giving each other advice that we probably don't even realise is literally some of the worst advice that we can give each other. When you say, "Just be yourself", what does that actually mean? It means staying within the boundaries of who you currently are. Or maybe it freaks you out because you don't really know who you are. You think that you need to act a certain w...

Recently it was the anniversary of my first husband, Jeo's death and I received some messages on Instagram from people that got me thinking about this idea of feeling "sad" when someone has passed away. Today on the podcast, Hamish and I chat about how we celebrate Jeo and why we don't like this "death guilt" mentality. Why is it that for the one day a year that we tr...

I've been getting messages lately from people who are concerned that they've been copping flack for expressing their opinions on social media. Whatever the topic is, it doesn't matter but certainly right now in the time of COVID it's really being highlighted how different our views can be. My love, I need you to understand that's okay. We're not all supposed to agree....

Today I have a very special guest. She is not only a dear friend but is a boss woman with so many skills it is ridiculous, Lina Escamilla. Lina lives in South America and is a business coach with an incredible story of resilience and tapping into her authentic power. We met on a business summit that Lina was hosting and there was an instant connection. Lina pours her heart and soul into everything...

Can you consume too much personal development information? The answer is basically no, but it's more involved than that. The issue is whether you take ACTION on what you're consuming. If you're not taking action on what you're consuming, you're not really doing anything. You're just taking in a bunch of info that you don't do anything with. That's what I&apo...

As you may know, my husband and I used to be in a cult. The guy who ran it was a business coach and we were in his program for two years. It was full on and as much as we learned a lot and it was incredible in hindsight, the values of this man and the narcissistic behaviour were huge red flags that we didn't see at the time. We were allowing his values to take over us and when we finally got...

Y'all it's almost Mother's Day, and I wanted to share with you a really special conversation that I had with my mum at the end of last year. This was just after my father had flown back to Peurto Rico after being in Australia with us for Christmas. I had not seen him in 20 years and I flew him out for the first time ever. My mum had not seen him in 25 years. It was a big fucking dea...

I received a great question via my website for our Q&A today ladies! The question was this: How to not let your own insecurities about your body interfere with your sex life with your partner when they have a better physique than you do. How do you not let your feelings of low self-esteem or low self-worth cock-block you from having the intimate relationship that you want to have? I did a podc...

My friends, I am extremely excited to present my guest for today, Marlee Liss. This has been one of my most favourite episodes I've done as an interview so far. I cried many times and I feel the message that Marlee has to share is such an important one. Marlee has an absolutely extraordinary story. She was sexually assaulted when she was 21 years old and the court proceedings that followed ac...

During this weird ass time I've been getting a lot of questions from y'all about how to stop yourself from feeling all the anxious thoughts due to all the uncertainty. The answer is fairly simple, don't go future. All you need to do right now is to stay here and acknowledge that in this moment, you have everything you need. Look at how many of your thoughts are in a future that hasn...

My love, you don't need to hold everything together all the time. You're telling yourself that you need to hold it together for your partner, your kids, your work, your health but there's nothing healthy about "holding it together". You need to let some of the pressure out or you're going to explode like a fucking shaken up champagne bottle. If you don't relieve...

After so many episodes of the Confidence Chronicles podcast, I've realised that I've barely spoken about death and the grieving process. As you may know, my husband Jeo died in 2007 and I had never had anyone close to me die before. I had no idea how to handle it, process it and work through it at the time so I suppressed the emotions. It wasn't until I discovered the work of Byron...

If you're looking to start your business right now, or maybe you've been at it for awhile and you're not gaining the traction that you think you should be, this podcast episode is for you. Stop waiting until you've got all your shit together. Stop waiting for the website to be finished, the perfect logo, the mailing list subscribers....all the things. Stop making excuses for no...

Look, I know you're sick of hearing about COVID19 and I know you're probably getting a million emails from businesses talking about it too. I don't want to add to it and I know we all just want to get on with our lives, but the fact of the matter is right now things are different. Life is different and how are you handling it? Like really, deep down, how are you handling your curren...
