    Catching Your Business Up With Who You’ve Become

    In this episode, I’m talking about that strange, in-between season - the one where you’ve grown, but your business hasn’t quite caught up yet. I share what it feels like to be in that identity lag space, the difference between surrender and giving up, and how I’m learning to trust the ground beneath me even when I’m doubting it. If you’ve been feeling stretched between where you are and where you’re heading, this one’s for you. ✨ Mentioned in this episode: If this resonates, you might love The Intensive — a deep-dive day with me (currently half-price at £750) designed to help you catch your business up with who you’ve become. In The Intensive, we strip back the patterns quietly running your business, reconnect you with your next-level identity, and reset how you make money from a place of internal safety and alignment.

    Comparison, Discernment, and Creating Money Your Way

    Ever found yourself stuck in comparison mode? Constantly measuring yourself against what they are doing? And then swinging the other way, determined to prove you’re nothing like them…only to find you’re still not creating the money you want? In this episode I am sharing a sneak peek inside my Plenty private Podcast The Pep Talk - normally only available to members. I’m unpacking the sneaky ways comparison shows up in our businesses, and why the antidote isn’t more proving or pushing. It’s discernment. The ability to pause, zoom out, and choose what’s really yours. Here’s what we'll cover: Why comparison isn’t always the enemy (and how to use it to your advantage).The difference between discernment and judgements.How to stop twisting yourself into knots to be “not like them.”What shifts when you show up as yourself, fully, in your business and money-making. If you’ve ever thought, “I don’t want to be like them” and then found yourself stuck, this episode will help you untangle that pattern and start creating money in a way that actually feels true to you. Want more? This is exactly the kind of money mindset work we do inside Plenty, my membership designed to help you rewire the beliefs holding you back and create money your way. Join us here

  4. I Cancelled My Launch: Not Because It Flopped - Because It Worked!

    I Cancelled My Launch: Not Because It Flopped - Because It Worked!

    I really did cancel my launch. But not because it flopped, or because I wasn’t organised enough. I cancelled it because it sold out before I even got started. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how that happened — and why it’s not just about strategy. Yes, I followed the Bold Money framework. But the truth is, this launch worked because of the mindset and -deconditioning work I’ve been doing (the same work I teach inside Plenty). In this episode I'm talking about: The messy, human way I actually launch (and why it still works).How I sold out Bold Money in 3 emails — without a polished plan or endless content.Why your launches keep stalling if you’re still tying your worth to the outcome.What de-conditioning really looks like when it comes to money and business (and why most mindset work doesn’t go deep enough).How to build a business that works with your rhythms, energy, and quirks instead of constantly trying to “fix” yourself. Want to experience this for yourself? Early Bird for Plenty is open right now! Get all the details here.

    Back from a Break: Rest, Money, and the Fear of Slowing Down

    If you’ve ever sat there thinking, “but if I actually rest, how the hell am I going to make money?” - then this episode is for you. I’m back after a longer break than planned and today I’m chatting about what happened when I actually let myself rest this summer. No surprise that it felt good AND it brought up all kinds of wobbles about worth, productivity, and whether I was doing enough. Inside this episode we get into: Why slowing down makes us feel so bloody uncomfortable.The old hustle–crash–repeat cycle I realised I was still caught in (ugh).How to build your business around the energy you actually have, not the mythical “one day” version of you. And because I know so many of you are in this too I want you to know that Bold Money is open right now. It’s my six-month group where we go deep on this stuff: building those £5k+ months without running on fumes or pretending you’re someone you’re not. Early bird’s on, you can find all the info here. So if you’re wobbling post-summer, feeling guilty for not being “productive enough,” or just fancy hearing me admit that my favourite way to rest involves crisps and terrible American first responder TV dramas… hit play!

    From getting visible to going Viral with Jo Hutton

    Joining me for the fourth episode of the 'Your Guide to Making it Happen in 2025' series is the amazing Jo Hutton! Jo walks us through the transition from being a studio-based yoga instructor to the discoveries that began when she started to offer her services online during the pandemic. As someone whose business was rooted in a physical presence, Jo comes to us with a unique perspective on just how expansive an online presence can be for any business. Starting with the transition itself, we dive into the lessons that Jo learned while embracing visibility, especially when what started out as a TikTok experiment led to her going viral. Tune in for some amazing insights on how to build and maintain your confidence and sense of self when showing up online! QUOTES: " These are not personality traits. They are skills that I can learn or unlearn. And where I focus my energy is where it's going to grow."  "Let me tell myself a better story about Instagram. Let me tell myself that I can learn this, that there's a formula, and that it's not happening to me, I'm happening to it. If both of those stories aren't true, then pick the one that's gonna feel better in your head." " The hardest bit is climbing up cringe mountain. But once you're on the other side of cringe mountain, it doesn't matter which cringe mountain you've climbed. If you see someone else climbing cringe mountain, you will do nothing but cheer."
