EP38 - I Sold My Accounting Business, Got Diagnosed with ADHD and Stopped Pretending

After a long break from the podcast, I'm back. But this time, I'm not coming back polished, perfect or pretending everything has been neat behind the scenes. Because honestly? It hasn't. The last year has been a lot. I lost my voice, my creativity, and at times, myself. I sold my accounting business, stepped back from parts of my education business, grew my dance schools, received my ADHD diagnosis, started looking at possible autism, and realised just how much of my life I had spent running in operational mode. This episode is a very honest reset. I'm talking about burnout, business identity, motherhood, SEN parenting, the pressure to perform online, stepping away from what no longer fits, and asking the bigger question: Am I actually living the life I want, or the life I thought I was supposed to want? In this episode, I'm sharing: 💭 Why I took a break from the podcast and what really held me back 💚 The truth about selling my accounting business and starting a new chapter 🧠 What my ADHD diagnosis has brought up for me 👩‍👧‍👦 The reality of motherhood, SEN parenting, guilt and lack of support 💸 Why wealth is so much more than money in the bank 🔥 How I got caught up in the online business noise ✨ Why I'm stepping back from some things, but stepping up with this podcast 🎙️ What I want this podcast to become moving forward This isn't an episode full of neat answers. It's honest, real and probably a bit messy, but that's the point. Because business, life, money and motherhood are not always perfectly packaged. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do is slow down, strip it back, and ask yourself what you actually want. So plug in, take a breath, and join me for a proper honest catch-up.

EP37 - Let's Talk About Debt (and How to Actually Get Out of It)

Too many entrepreneurs stay quiet about debt. They hide it, carry shame around it, and convince themselves they're the only one struggling — especially when they're earning six figures or more. But here's the truth: debt isn't failure. It's feedback. And understanding it is the first step to financial freedom. This episode is your honest, practical guide to getting out of debt and staying out of it. We're talking about the mindset shifts, the money systems, and the strategic steps that actually work (without the shame or jargon). In this episode, I'm sharing: 💭 Why the psychology of money is the foundation to any debt-free plan 💸 The difference between "good" and "bad" debt and how to tell which you've got ⚖️ The truth about IVAs, consolidation, and what to avoid 📊 How to use the Snowball and Avalanche methods to clear debt strategically 🧠 Why mindset and consistency matter more than perfection 💚 How to rebuild your financial confidence and start creating real wealth If you've ever felt stuck, ashamed, or exhausted trying to get out of debt, this is your reminder, you are not alone, and you are not broken. You just need the right plan, the right mindset, and a bit of patience. 🎧 Plug in, take a deep breath, and let's rebuild your financial power, one step at a time.

EP36 - The Unspoken Abuse: Financial Manipulation and Why It's Keeping You Stuck

I've seen too many people hand over their financial power, quietly, unknowingly, in relationships, in business, and in everyday life. This episode is one I had to make. Because we need to talk about the unspoken abuse that's keeping people stuck, stressed, and silently struggling. We're pulling back the curtain on financial manipulation - how it shows up in relationships, how it's disguised in sales tactics, and how it damages confidence, clarity, and control. In this episode, I'm sharing: 💡 What financial manipulation really looks like (it's not always loud) 💡 How it shows up in marriages, friendships — and business coaching calls 💡 The dangerous overlap between money, control, and coercion 💡 My own experience and how financial education helped me survive 💡 Why ethical sales must replace pressure-based tactics 💡 What real, conscious wealth looks like — and how to protect yourself If you've ever felt stuck, confused, or ashamed around money, this is your wake up call. Because financial empowerment isn't about earning more. It's about reclaiming your power. 🎧 Plug in, breathe deep, and let's talk about what no one else will.

EP35 - The Business You've Built Can't Depend On You Forever — Let's Talk Wealth, Burnout, and Securing Your Future

I've seen too many people build businesses that look good online… But can't survive if they take a week off. This episode is the one I had to make, because it's time we talk about what real wealth looks like when you're neurodivergent, parenting, running a business (or three), and trying to live a life that actually feels good. In this episode, I'm sharing: 💡 Why so many business models are built on burnout 💡 The danger of being the centre of your brand and what I've done to change it 💡 How I've built 3 income streams that work without me constantly performing 💡 Why financial independence matters (yes, even in a relationship) 💡 What conscious wealth really is 💡 How to start building protection, peace, and power - no matter your starting point If you're building a business but can't breathe, this is your wake up call. It's time to build wealth that doesn't crumble when life happens. 🎧 Plug in, breathe deep, and let's rebuild consciously. Ready to build conscious wealth in your business and your life?

EP34 - Wealth Isn't What You've Been Sold And I'm Not Playing Along Anymore

I went quiet. Not because I didn't have anything to say But because I was deep in the work. Rebuilding. Reflecting. Realigning. This episode is raw, honest, and long overdue. In it, I'm sharing: 💡 Why I stopped creating and how perfection nearly silenced me 💡 What I've been building behind the scenes (3 businesses and a whole new definition of success) 💡 The truth about online "wealth" and why so much of it is fake 💡 What real wealth looks like when you're neurodivergent, raising a family, and trying to live well 💡 Why you don't want to be rich, you want to be wealthy 🚨 If you've ever felt like you're behind, burnt out, or building in silence - this one's for you. It's your reminder that conscious wealth is possible. And you're not doing it wrong. 🎧 Plug in and let's reset, together. Ready to build conscious wealth in your business and your life?
