Are you settling without even realising it? 💭

So many of us hold back from asking for what we truly want - in life, love, and business, and end up living smaller than we deserve. This episode will open your eyes to the hidden reasons why you never get what you want … and the mindset shifts you need to finally change that.

✨ Inside this conversation, we unpack:

* How to build the confidence to create life on your own terms

* Breaking free from tying your worth to your output

* What it means if you’re living someone else’s life

* How to ask for what you want without guilt

* The truth about standards, money, and relationships (yes, we talk about the “if he was broke, I wouldn’t choose him” moment 👀)

* Why success isn’t about working harder and how to create financial freedom

* Becoming your own backup plan (so you never feel trapped again)

This episode is for anyone who feels stuck, “fine where they are,” or afraid to ask for more - consider this the sign you’ve been waiting for.

🔑 You deserve more. You deserve a life that feels yours. And it all starts here.
