What if that sneaky voice in your head whispering "you don't belong here" isn't your enemy, but your secret weapon? We've all been taught to see imposter syndrome as something to overcome, but today we're exploring a complete reframe. That imposter feeling isn't a red flag—it's a green light urging you forward. I share why the "itus" family (not-good-enough itus, comparison itus, procrastination-fueled-by-fear itus) might actually be your competitive edge.

In this episode, we’ll explore the concept of confident humility—that sweet spot where self-belief meets openness to growth. We talk about how your quirks aren't flaws to fix but features to amplify, and I walk you through a practical exercise to transform your perceived negatives into superpowers.

The liberation of not being perfect is where the magic happens. When you feel like an imposter, you've got everything to gain and nothing to protect—no perfect image to maintain, no reputation to uphold. This spurs innovation, encourages deeper preparation and fuels relentless learning. That feeling isn't evidence you don't belong; it's evidence you're growing. Imposter syndrome isn't the problem—it's the rocket fuel you never knew you needed. And the question isn't how to eliminate it, but how to harness it.

This week has been a masterclass in frustration—conversation after conversation with brilliant women who are nailing their craft and changing lives, yet still charging like they're apologising for existing. I think it’s time to address the uncomfortable truth about pricing that's been lurking in every business strategy session. If you’re undercharging, don’t address it tomorrow or next quarter. It has to stop today.

In this episode, I share my own pricing wake-up call and the mindset traps keeping you broke—fear of rejection, good girl conditioning and imposter syndrome. We explore the reframe that changes everything: you're not selling time; you're selling transformation. I walk you through finding your "Goldilocks pricing" and how to raise your prices without apology.

The reality? Undercharging isn't modesty—it's self-sabotage. Every time you discount your rates, you're teaching clients how to value you. Your pricing becomes your positioning. The question is: are you pricing based on fear, or based on your brilliance? Your worth isn't negotiable, and your pricing shouldn't be either.

Have you ever listened to someone on a stage, in a meeting, on a podcast, or even one of those feisty little Instagram reels and thought, "Damn, I wish I could speak like that"? I've lost track of how many times I've stepped off stage and someone has whispered to me, "I wish I could do what you do." My answer every single time? You can. But it's not by trying to be like me or anyone else—it's by sounding like you.

In this episode, we explore why being a copycat makes you invisible in a world already full of same-sounding noise. I share why audiences crave authenticity and can spot a knock-off from miles away, and how embracing your imperfections and quirks is what makes you relatable and engaging. We discuss how your unique voice—whether it's cheeky puns, candour, or playful grit—is actually your superpower in creating an unmistakable personal brand.

The digital world doesn't need another clone of someone else—it needs the vibrant aura that's unmistakably you. When you're true to yourself, you're not just delivering content; you're inviting people into a world that only you can create. I challenge you to ask yourself: Do you want to blend in, or do you want to be a glaring point of awesomeness in a dull landscape? Because nobody forgets the one and only original—you're the main act, not a supporting impression.
