In this episode, we’re talking about why joy isn’t optional, especially when you’re building goals, chasing growth, and navigating money pressure.

I share why hustle mode quietly disconnects us from joy, how constant striving impacts the subconscious and nervous system, and why success without felt safety often leads to burnout, procrastination, or self-sabotage.

We explore the idea of joy anchors and why having intentional experiences to look forward to creates emotional regulation, motivation, and sustainability.

You’ll be guided to choose four joy anchors for 2026, including:

• A proper break or holiday
• A solo joy experience
• A connection-based experience with friends
• A pleasure or relationship anchor

This episode is an invitation to stop postponing joy and start building a life where success and enjoyment coexist, because life isn’t just about paying the bills, it’s about living.

We all have those times when we're working hard on ourselves but don't feel any shifts.

So what do we do? We give up! BUT this is the time to push through the resistance and keep going.

In this episode, I explain why we give up on working on ourselves and it's not because we can't be bothered... our subconscious mind is telling us to!

In this episode, we dive into the truth about failure, setbacks and resilience in business, and why these moments are not proof that you’re incapable but essential catalysts for growth.

I share how your subconscious and nervous system respond when things don’t go to plan, why you take failure so personally, and how shifting your identity into “the woman who gets back up” changes everything.

You’ll learn how to separate the outcome from your worth, regulate your nervous system during challenges and build the confidence to take bigger risks, show up fully, and trust yourself again.

If you’re ready to stop letting setbacks define you and start seeing them as fuel for your next level, this episode will empower you deeply.

In this episode, we dive into the real reason so many women hold themselves back in life and business:
the fear of judgment but not from strangers, but from the people closest to us.

I break down:

• What judgment actually is and why it hits us so hard
• How early experiences shape our fear of being seen
• Why business owners play small to avoid opinions
• The emotional and physical response our body has to perceived judgment
• How worrying about others’ opinions impacts growth, confidence and visibility
• Practical steps to overcome the fear of “what will they think?”

A must listen if you’re ready to stop playing small, silence your inner critic and show up as the woman you're meant to be.

We’ve reached the final day of the Glowtober Challenge and what a transformational month it’s been!

In this episode, I reflect on my incredible growth, mindset shifts and nervous system upgrades that have taken place over the past 31 days. From gaining confidence as a speaker and coach, this month has been proof of how much can change when you commit to your growth.

In today’s Glow-tober✨ challenge, I guide you through one of my favourite annual practices: writing a letter to my future self.

You’ll reflect on:

• What you’re proud of yourself for achieving

This practice helps you anchor into your next level identity while creating safety in your body as you imagine your future growth.
