You all know me as the no-nonsense business coach, right? Well, in this episode I want to practise what I preach and delve into the rollercoaster that is: confidence.  I'm getting real with you about my own battles with those confidence dips – you know, those times when hormones wreak havoc or when things just don't go as planned in our businesses.

I want to chat with you about why it's crucial to remember that our self-worth is so much more than our business highs and lows. I'll be sharing some personal tips and tricks that have helped me shake off that pesky imposter syndrome. Consistency in sharing our stories and work is key, and I'm a big believer in reaching out for a helping hand – whether that's therapy, coaching, or just a good old heart-to-heart with someone who gets it.

Together, let's rediscover what drives us, realign our business plans with what truly lights a fire in our souls, and support each other along the way. I'm all about that community spirit, so I'd love for you to jump into the conversation.
