    #139 - The Power of Love, Finding her Spark after Pain & Healing Through Purpose with Maureen Lemalu

    In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with Maureen Lemalu. Wife, mother of three, and the heart behind I'm Every Woman, to unpack the journey that changed everything. After the birth of her eldest son Caleb, who was born with complex medical needs, Maureen's world shifted overnight. What followed were years of hospital stays, impossible decisions, silent grief, and losing herself in the fight to keep her child alive. But this isn’t just a story about hardship. It’s about identity.It’s about resilience, and rediscovering your spark. From crying every Sunday night before her husband returned to work… to founding a charity that now delivers 50 care bags a month to families in special care - Maureen turned pain into purpose. We talk about: Motherhood in survival mode Navigating epilepsy and life-threatening seizures The quiet strength of her husband, Vince Raising compassionate siblings Grief, faith, and rebuilding identity How one International Women’s Day dinner sparked a six year movement This conversation is raw. Honest. Powerful.

    # 138 - How to Build Authority in Your Niche as a Female Entrepreneur

    If you’ve been doing the work, building the thing, showing up consistently…but still hesitating to fully own your voice, your title, or your authority, this episode is for you. In this episode I’m calling out one of the biggest blocks I see in women in business when it comes to owning your voice and your authority: waiting for permission. Permission to be confident.Permission to be seen as the expert.Permission to take up space. Authority isn’t about being louder, more polished, or more “strategic”, it’s about ownership. Ownership of who you are, what you know, and the woman you’re becoming. We talk identity.We talk imposter syndrome.We talk the quiet self-doubt that shows up even when you’re doing everything “right”. And I’ll walk you through simple reflection prompts to help you start showing up differently - not "one day", but now. Why authority has nothing to do with ego or dominance How waiting for external validation keeps you stuck The identity shifts required to grow your business Why imposter syndrome is often a sign you’re expandingHow old beliefs quietly cap your confidenceWhat it actually means to own your titleHow to start positioning yourself as the go-to... without forcing itHere are your journal prompts to sit with & be real... What would help me feel more like the [insert title] I envision myself to be?What makes me feel like I'm not that version of myself? Be specificWhat evidence do I have to prove otherwise? The type that proves your capable.Who am I becoming in this next chapter of my business?

    #134 - Mindset Reset for Women in Business

    Hello my Queen, This is my final Ignite episode for 2025… and honestly, I’m feeling everything. Gratitude. Emotion. Reflection. Fire in my belly. And so much love for you being here with me at the end of another year. In this episode, I slow things down. I speak from the heart. And I share 10 powerful reflections that I want you to take with you; not just into 2026, but into your life and business, whenever you need them. Some of these reflections are for end of year energy. Some are for the messy middle. Some are for the days when the bullets bounce off you… and some are for the days when they hit hard. All of them are rooted in self leadership, identity, mindset, seasons, and honouring the fire inside you. This is a sit with yourself, real talk, Jess fire kind of conversation. Why change doesn’t need January 1st — it needs a decisionHow your thoughts shape your emotions (and your entire life)Why identity is not fixed — and which parts may need sheddingThe truth about why a new year doesn’t magically change anythingReframing “failure” into learning and growthUnderstanding and honoring your current seasonThe power of spaciousness (and why hustle isn’t always the answer)Choosing your rhythm instead of dancing to everyone else’sGetting honest about your downfalls — and addressing them with supportAnd the deepest one of all: honoring your gifts and fighting for your fireI also share personal stories, real client moments, and why I’m taking a short podcast break (with some juicy replays coming your way). Most of all, I want you to remembe this: You are not here to let your fire dwindle. You are here to let it shine.

    #133 - Feeling Flat at Year's End? This One's For You

    As the year wraps up, for some the pressure starts creeping in... the comparison, the “everyone’s killing it but me”, the “WTF happened this year?” spiral. Sound familiar, babe? In this episode, I'm cracking open the REAL conversation women in business need right now. No highlight reels. No toxic positivity. No pretending everything is perfect. Just truth. Heart. And a powerful mindset shift to pull you out of the end of year emotional quicksand. I'm breaking down: Why we MUST normalise the seasons of business - the bloom and the burnoutThe sneaky way your thoughts → trigger your emotions → dictate your actions (or lack of them)Why feeling “behind” is more about your mindset wiring than your actual resultsThe negativity bias your brain uses against you, and how to outsmart itA simple but potent reframe that shifts you from “I failed” → to “I actually DID way more than I realised”A practical reflection method that shows you EXACTLY where you grew, even when the numbers don’t show itHow a 1% shift can turn into massive transformationLet's talk about powerful reframes, and examples you can apply instantly - whether you’re reflecting on business or your personal life. This episode is your permission slip to stop dragging your spirit through the mud and to step into the new year (or new season) with clarity, intention, compassion… and your head held high. IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN: How to shift out of scarcity + self-doubtThe mindset pattern sabotaging your successA journaling framework to reflect without spirallingHow to adopt a growth mindset (even when it feels impossible)The ONE action step that will move you forward immediatelyTHIS EPISODE IS FOR YOU IF YOU’RE SAYING: “I didn’t do enough.”“I thought I’d be further ahead by now.”“I don’t feel good at business.”“I’m tired of feeling like I’m failing.”“Why is this so hard?” WANT SUPPORT? If you’re stuck in the loop of wanting → procrastinating → doubting… I invite you into a powerful 90 minute deep dive session to uncover the REAL blocks, rewire your mindset, and map out your personalised action plan.
