Becoming Brave – A conversation with Katie Dean on courage and giving yourself permission

May 16, 2018
Today I want to introduce you to the fabulous Katie Dean, creator of Your Wild Life and recently published author of Becoming Brave.

This inspiring conversation is perfect for anyone who is looking to take a leap in their life and would love a few words of encouragement from someone who knows. Remember, like all the women I interview – Katie is just like you or I. She is a woman who has experienced her fair share of challenges, but by staying true to her north and digging deep, she found the courage to speak on stages, facilitate workshops and work with numerous women individually. I am honoured to have her as a guest as she speaks openly and candidly about this journey.

Here’s what you’ll learn about in this conversation:

+ What it takes to find the confidence to write and share despite past trauma or toxicity

+ Why is “Permission to rise” such an important message for women now?

+ How do we bravely share a change with others, without having the need to gain their permission? 

+ What tools do you use to bring you back to your centre? 

+ For someone who openly speaks about dealing with anxiety, how do you speak on stage?

How to turn a NO into your superpower

May 9, 2018

I’ll admit, saying the word “rejection” still conjures up old stuff for me. 

…That boy that cheated 13 years ago…that job I did’t get when I was 19…that friend that blacklisted me back when I was 14…that time my mum forgot to pick me up from school when I was five

Rejection is too often linked to past experience, and we can make just one case of rejection (as you can see I’ve got just a few in there) mean so much about ourselves. Then we take that meaning into all our future experiences. 

Today, I’d love to flip those feelings of rejection on their head. I want to help you understand that there’s some really rad and positive things that can come from a simple NO.

THIS POST is a must read if you are considering a potential career change, starting or building a side business, start a new hobby, or anyone generally looking to create change and deeper connection in our lives (which is typically all humans).

To help you, I’ve broken this post down into three areas:

What NO means in your business

Using NO to evoke your personal power

How to set yourself up for success + deal with the NO’s

How she made the switch from pharmacist to creating an embodiment school for women

April 30, 2018
Today’s “switch” interview involves someone who had a major impact on the course of my life and business over the past 2 years.

In September of 2016,  I reached out to Jenna Ward to work with her in a one on one capacity.

I was at a place where I needed guidance, a little female nurturing and a new way of thinking about my business (at a foundational level) and my personal life. I knew that both were inextricably linked and could see how one was affecting the growth of the other. And so, I put my money where my mouth is and dived into 3 months of intense discovery. My work with Jenna confirmed two beliefs:

+ That we do not need to do it alone – it’s okay to ask for help (a hard pill for an overachiever like me to swallow)

+ And to be wholehearted in my work, to be of service to others from a place of real compassion, I needed to get out of my head and into my heart.

It brings me joy to see the evolution of Jenna’s business in the last few years and as a student of her work, I am ever grateful for the awareness she helped me see in my own femininity through the practices of embodiment.

Let’s dive right in…

Why nobody talks about this when it comes to daily routines

April 26, 2018
Today I want to let you in on a secret.

Behind the scenes I’ve been creating a FREE mini-course that was designed with you in mind.

Before I dive into the details, I wanted to make sure you had your hands on my free guide “3 tools to creating a routine you love” or also known as your Daily ME. The Daily ME guide is the little sister to the mini-course I created, so it’s important you get your hands on that first.

If you’re not sure what a Daily ME is? read on…

Being your authentic self in the online world

March 30, 2018
This week I teamed up with gorgeous Niki Hennessy to discuss a topic dear to both our hearts:

Navigating the online world with authenticity and grace.

What sparked this collaboration, was the increasing number of questions that were coming from our individual tribes.

In the last few years, the presence of social media has increased dramatically and many women are questioning whether it’s really a medium of true authenticity. We continue to hear things like:

“I’m confident with sharing…I don’t feel like I have anything to say”

“How much do I say about my personal life?”

“How do I know if I’m coming across authentic?”

“What can I do to build a presence and message if I’m considering starting a side-hustle?”
