Expanding your capacity to "HAVE"
“Having” is not something we are used to. As a result we often self sabotage because we are unfamiliar with the feeling. Especially if you’ve never really “HAD” much to begin with. We have a subconscious belief that the ‘more’ is excess because it is not part of our self concept or current paradigm. If I never expand my capacity to have what I already have, I will not be able to receive MORE. Imagine your life is like a bucket. If you believe you are a small, fragile, rigid, bucket, thats all you will ev...

Ways SCARCITY MINDSET shows up for you that you do not realise
Scarcity. We often hear this term, but do we truly grasp its impact? When scarcity goes unnoticed, it becomes our default lens, making everything feel like a famine. We judge others, resent our own finances, and forget to appreciate opportunities. Fear and worry consume us, leading to overwork and a loss of purpose. It's time to break free! Scarcity mindset thrives on fear and the belief in insufficiency. It messes with our money and emits negative energy, repelling abundance. Let's explore three ways it shows up: hoarding...

Powerful lessons I learnt from my first powerlifting competition, overcoming nerves & creating zen in chaos
I competed in my first ever powerlifting competition and it was one of the BEST. EXPERIENCES. EVER. Nothing went right in the prep yet I surpassed every goal & even placed on the podium. How was this possible? I harnessed the power of my own mind. Doing this showed me the power of my own mind. I connected back to my WHY. I was lifting for the younger version of me who never thought she could ever compete. Who was laughed at and teased for being too fat. Insecure and afraid of any platform. ...

Insecure Coaches
Many coaches think what creates their safety is how much money they've made, the clients they've signed and the amount of engagements they get on their content. Yet these things can never lead to feelings of validation. As a coach, your business needs you to meet your own needs FIRST. Your business is not responsible for validating you or making you feel good enough as a coach. You are responsible for meeting your own needs and creating security in your identity as a coach. In this episode, I share the 4 main ways I have experienced...

Part 2. Making offers your audience can't resist
Many coaches are selling from desperation and it repels your audience. When it comes to sales, you must choose intentional thoughts about your client. If you think thoughts like, “they don’t want to buy” or “they can’t afford it”, it’s easy to get into convincing or defensiveness. You think you need to prove the value of your offer instead of focusing on what matters. In this episode, I talk about the difference between high quality and low quality selling, and how you know you are in either of these positions. This episode teaches you ho...

Creating safety outside of your business results
One of the things I struggled with in the early stages of building my coaching practice was managing my own feelings of scarcity, guilt and shame when things weren’t happening the way I planned them to. I see so many new coaches burn themselves out because of the inability to create their own safety outside of their business results. In entrepreneurship, the most fundamental part to growth is taking care of your own wellbeing. As the CEO and coach, you need to be able to manage your own mind WHILE problem solving and making business decisions....

Do you feel uncomfortable offering people to work with you? This episode is all about making high quality offers and how to do it without sounding “pushy” or “needy.” I teach you how to invite your audience to work with you from a place of integrity. The common experience for most coaches is that you get in your own head when talking about your offers. You feel like an impostor selling something you can’t deliver on… or you feel like you have to convince them so they can see the ‘value’ of what you offer. In order to ma...
