Today’s episode of the podcast is all about whether you can really have it all!
For those of you who have been listening for a while, you’ll know that I’m fed up with the lies being spun by the online world to get you to spend money with them; and it’s got me thinking about whether you really can have it all.
Tune in now to hear me share my thoughts on whether having it all is a marketing lie, an unrealistic goal, or something that we should all aspire to achieve.

Hello and welcome to this week's episode of the podcast. How are you doing? So, a couple of weeks ago I had little rants on my Instagram stories. Because I got, I got distracted with some things online as we do, and in fact, I hadn't looked at it. Someone had pointed it to my attention, which is sometimes a little bit frustrating because of the fact of, I purposely mute things so I don't get distracted.
Anyway, and basically it was someone making out like their life is perfect and their business is perfect and they've got it all sussed and everything is wonderful and you can have what I have if you pay me money type thing. You've seen it before. We know this world very, very well. And it's got me thinking about the kind of can you really have it all?
Like, is this a unrealistic goal we are setting for ourselves? Is it something that people lie about or is it something that we can actually have? And I guess the first thing that I have to think about in answering this is what does that really have it all mean? And the truth is it means something different to everybody.
My version of having it all, whatever that sentence means, could be completely different to your version. And this is something that I am like championing again and again and again. That it is very hard for people in the online space offering a program or a service that's a one size fits all to justify, justify is not the right word to well, in my mind how they can promote that it'll work for everybody. Cuz it can't because you are different. I'm different. We learn different ways. We have different things that, you know, change our lens on life and what's important or how we see things.
So I am becoming more and more passionate about doing smaller group stuff. Now, I won't lie. When I first started in this online world, I believed that having it all meant having a humongous audience and a humongous membership, and this dream of recurring income, which meant that I could sit on a beach and work, which as we all know, is not as easy as people make out.
And I dreamed and, and imagined that that's what I wanted. And I tried really hard in the early days to get out there, build my audience, do all that stuff. And as time's gone on, I've come to realize two things, three things, many things. First, I've realized that it's not as easy as everybody makes out. Fact.
You know that, you know that I happily promote this. Two, it doesn't necessarily work like doing things on mass, mass thing...
