    Dream Makers - Trust Yourself: The Real Reason Most Women Stay Stuck (Ft. Karla Maree)

    What if the thing holding you back isn't a lack of strategy, another course, a better business plan, Human Design, AI, Astrology, or even more information... What if it's a lack of self-trust? In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Karla Maree to talk about self-trust, visibility, Human Design, AI, building a seven-figure business, single motherhood, freedom, and what it really takes to back yourself when life gets messy. Three years after her last appearance on the Dream Makers Podcast, Karla returns to share the journey from divorce and rebuilding her life to creating a thriving seven-figure business built around freedom, alignment and doing things her way. Together, we explore: Why self-trust is the foundation of everythingThe real reason so many women stay stuckBuilding a business after divorceSingle motherhood, freedom and financial independenceHuman Design, Astrology and understanding yourself more deeplyAI as a tool for business and creativityVisibility, criticism and learning to be seenPeople-pleasing, codependency and backing yourselfCreating safety, structure and nervous system support in businessWhy action creates confidence more than information ever willWhat it takes to build a business that actually works for your lifeThis conversation is full of truth bombs, practical wisdom and reminders that the version of you you're becoming is built one brave decision at a time. Connect with Karla: Instagram: @iam.karlamaree Website: karlamaree.co And remember... You can listen to all the podcasts, read all the books, study all the frameworks and collect all the insights in the world. But at some point, you have to create a container of time to make it real. To build the thing. To make the offer. To take the next brave step.

    Dream Makers - TAP OUT or LEAN IN? Identity, Manifestation & Building Self-Trust as a Dream Maker (Ft. Karli Whitwell)

    📘 Get your copy of Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t If you’ve got a dream or idea you want to bring to life but keep getting stuck in fear, overthinking, or bullsh*t - this book is for you. Today on the Dream Makers Podcast I’m sitting down with Karli Whitwell - and we are going deep into identity, manifestation, self-trust and what actually happens when you hit the edge of your comfort zone. Because here’s the truth - most people don’t fail... they just tap out the moment it gets uncomfortable. In this conversation we talk about: - Identity stabilisation and why you keep snapping back to the old version of you - Manifestation beyond the fluffy stuff — becoming the person who can actually hold the result - The tap out vs lean in moment (this is EVERYTHING) - Nervous system regulation for entrepreneurs and creatives - Self-trust in business and how you slowly erode it without realising - Money mindset, money identity and the relationship you truly have with income - Why discomfort doesn’t mean you’re unsafe - it means you’re expanding This episode is for women, creatives, entrepreneurs - Dream Makers building something real. The coach. The artist. The business owner. The mama with a vision in her chest. The creative who knows they’re meant for more. We talk about staying. Staying when it’s quiet. Staying when it’s wobbly. Staying when it would be easier to pivot, quit or make it mean something about you. Because your vision isn’t a cute idea. It’s a commitment. And the micro-moment where you choose not to tap out? That’s the quantum leap. We also speak about my upcoming book Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t (at the time of recording we’re just days away from celebrating the launch 😭), and I pull a quote live from Chapter 16 - There Will Always Be D*ckheads. If you’re ready to: Build self-trust Stabilise your next-level identity Shift your money story Stop waiting for perfect And lean in like action is the love language to your dream Hit play. Lean in. And decide who you’re being from here. xx CB Find Karli here: Instagram https://www.instagram.com/manifestationmentorkarli/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@manifestationmentorkarli 📘 Get your copy of Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t If you’ve got a dream or idea you want to bring to life but keep getting stuck in fear, overthinking, or bullsh*t - this book is for you.

    Dream Makers - Your 2026 Vision: CLARITY, momentum & owning what you actually want.

    📘 Get your copy of Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t If you’ve got a dream or idea you want to bring to life but keep getting stuck in fear, overthinking, or bullsh*t - this book is for you. Welcome to the Dream Makers Podcast. This episode is the replay from my live Visioning Party — and it is a powerful reset for anyone who is ready to stop circling, stop stalling, and finally get clear about what they want this year. Inside this episode, we move through a grounded, practical visioning process to help you: • Reflect on the year that was and extract the real lessons  • Get honest about what you’re done with  • Name the bullsh*t that’s been keeping you small  • Craft a clear, compelling vision for 2026  • Choose your top priorities (not 27 goals, just what’s essential)  • Take the next aligned step toward your dream This is not fluffy “manifest it and hope” energy.  This is ownership.  This is leadership.  This is deciding what you want and moving. We talk about perfectionism, procrastination, self-doubt, fear, nervous system regulation, momentum, and what it actually takes to turn a vision into reality. If you’ve been thinking about:  – starting the business  – writing the book  – launching the offer  – prioritising your health  – making more money  – showing up more boldly  – or simply living a more intentional year … this episode will meet you exactly where you are. Because momentum doesn’t come from thinking about the thing.  It comes from leading the thing. And when you decide, the energy reorganises. Let this be the episode that helps you:  Get clear.  Get honest.  And move. If this lands and you want support turning your clarity into conviction, I’m opening a small number of 1:1 clarity sessions this quarter. Podcast listeners can email me the word CLARITY for a $100 voucher off. Let’s make this the year you don’t abandon your vision. 📘 Get your copy of Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t If you’ve got a dream or idea you want to bring to life but keep getting stuck in fear, overthinking, or bullsh*t - this book is for you.

    📘 Get your copy of Let Your Vision Be Bigger Than Your Bullsh*t If you’ve got a dream or idea you want to bring to life but keep getting stuck in fear, overthinking, or bullsh*t - this book is for you. May anything that feels like resistance… just fall away. Because this episode is a permission slip for anyone navigating burnout, redundancy, career identity loss, anxiety, nervous system overload, or a major life reset. I’m sharing heart space with Sonia Bavistock - writer, speaker, coach, host of The Creatress Tapes podcast, and creator of Spark, Project Radiance, and the Blooming Season Substack - and this is one of those conversations that helps you come back to yourself. Sonia shares the real story behind a year that tested everything: being made redundant, applying for 70+ jobs with zero interviews, moving to a regional town, experiencing chronic stress and insomnia, and hitting a breaking point that forced radical honesty. This is a conversation about self-worth beyond your job title, rebuilding identity, and creating safety in the unknown - the “hallway season” between not this and what’s next. We talk about: Redundancy, job loss, and career identityMental health, stress, insomnia, and nervous system regulationThe power of radical honesty and radical responsibilityHow to stop performing “fine” and start asking for supportPresence as a practice (yes, even unstacking the dishwasher)Why doors stay closed until the right one opensSelf-love, boundaries, and saying no without guiltTending your spark: confidence, energy, radiance, and personal powerWhat it means to be a Dream Maker (not just a dreamer)Sonia’s word for 2026 is glow up - and this episode is a masterclass in how glow ups actually happen: one brave truth, one clean decision, one boundary, one moment of self-trust at a time. If you’re in a season of surviving… If you’re questioning who you are… If you’re rebuilding after a hard year… This episode will meet you right where you are - and help you move forward. Just some of the key takeaways in this banger ep:  ✨ Speak the truth to one safe person - it takes the charge out of it  ✨ Create space, or you can’t receive what you’re asking for  ✨ Manage your calendar like your energy depends on it (because it does)  ✨ Fear can come along for the ride - it just doesn’t drive  ✨ Your faith only needs to be 1% bigger than your fear  ✨ Love yourself like you love your best friend - and let that change everything We also talk about what it means to let your vision be bigger than your bullsh*t - and why the world needs what you’re here to create.
