What you'll receive in this episode Struggle as a Catalyst for Growth:Learn how the challenges you face can refine, rather than define, you—and why reframing struggle can change your entire perspective. Failures Aren't the End:Hear how a $40,000 business mistake became the foundation for greater emotional resilience and clarity on what truly matters in business.

    ✨ “Fear isn't the problem—it's the meaning we attach to it.” This episode is an invitation to get real about the fears holding you back in your business. Have you ever delayed putting yourself out there, raising your prices, or pitching to dream clients because the “what if” thoughts got too loud? You're not alone. But here's the truth: The fear is rarely about the surface-level worry—it runs deeper than that. This is a special episode where we go beyond fear and dive into the beliefs, emotions, and stories that keep you stuck. We'll explore how to unpack fear, process it, and ultimately move forward—even when it feels uncomfortable. In this episode, I guide you through five transformational takeaways: 1️⃣ Uncover the Real Fear Behind the Fear: The fear of rejection, failure, or success is rarely about what it seems. We'll help you uncover what you're truly afraid of—so it no longer holds you back. 2️⃣ Challenge the Worst-Case Scenario: Often, our minds amplify fears into worst-case outcomes that are unlikely to happen. But when you shine a light on those scenarios, they lose their power. 3️⃣ Move Through Fear Instead of Avoiding It: Fear is a signal from your nervous system—not a stop sign. Learn how to regulate your nervous system so you can take aligned action even when fear is present. 4️⃣ Separate Fear from Identity: Fear-based thoughts don't define who you are. I'll show you how to reframe your relationship with fear so it becomes an ally instead of an enemy. 5️⃣ Unlock Freedom with Self-Trust: When you release the need to control or predict every outcome, you create space for your business to evolve. Building self-trust allows you to move forward with confidence, even without guarantees. This episode will empower you to stop avoiding fear, start acknowledging it, and move forward with courage. Fear doesn't have to hold you back—and once you learn to navigate it, the possibilities become endless. Your Journalling Prompts: What's the thing I'm most afraid of right now? What story am I telling myself about this fear? Is this fear logical—or just familiar? If I release this fear, what's possible for me on the other side? What's one small action I can take today, even if the fear is still present?

    ✨ “It's not the challenges themselves that hold you back—it's the meaning you attach to them.” This is not your average episode of Alive and Thriving. Today, I'm sharing an exclusive training I recently ran because the message is just too important to keep under wraps. If you've ever felt like you're doing everything in your business but still getting stuck, overwhelmed, or held back by imposter syndrome, this episode will be a game-changer. Self-sabotage often creeps in when we least expect it, disguised as overworking, undercharging, or procrastinating. But here's the truth: the key to moving forward lies in mastering your inner world. In this episode, I dive into five powerful takeaways that will help you unlock new levels of success: 1️⃣ Recognise Self-Sabotage Patterns: Self-sabotage isn't always obvious. Whether it shows up as fear of failure, perfectionism, or procrastination, recognising these patterns is the first step to breaking free—so you can stop holding yourself back and step into your potential. 2️⃣ Shift Your Perspective on Challenges: When you attach the belief "I'm failing" to your struggles, it keeps you stuck. But shifting your narrative to "I'm learning" creates emotional resilience, making it easier to grow through challenges and come out stronger on the other side. 3️⃣ Align Your Actions with Belief: Business strategies alone won't move you forward if your inner world isn't aligned. Learn how to integrate mindset, emotional resilience, and energy alignment so that every step you take moves you closer to your vision, instead of creating more resistance. 4️⃣ Build Emotional Capacity to Hold Success: Scaling isn't just about doing more—it's about becoming the person who can hold more. This means creating a business that feels sustainable and expansive, where your nervous system is regulated, and your energy is protected. 5️⃣ Tap Into Self-Trust: True success comes when you trust yourself to lead with clarity and authenticity. When you embody self-trust, it becomes easier to attract aligned clients, make empowered decisions, and create a thriving business without constant second-guessing. This episode is all about shifting your inner narrative, embracing challenges, and becoming the version of yourself who can hold the success you desire—emotionally, mentally, and energetically.

    I'm going to introduce to you one of my favourite manifestation techniques that has formed part of my practice for years and had the most incredible impact on my life. It's hard to see the future clearly sometimes, isn't it? We get caught up in the day-to-day and lose sight of our long-term goals and future self. That's where future pacing comes in. In this episode, we'll explore what future pacing is, how it works, and my step-by-step guide to help you master this technique. Never Heard of Future Pacing?Future pacing (also known as mental rehearsal) is a powerful technique that involves mentally stepping into a future scenario and experiencing it as if it's already happening. From an energetic perspective, this process allows you to align your vibrational frequency with the desired outcome, attracting it into your reality. By visualising your success and feeling the emotions associated with it, you're essentially creating a blueprint for the universe to follow.

    In today's episode, I share the incredible journey of women who have embraced their healing path, discovered their authentic selves, and realised that their true passions no longer align with their previous way of living. They've transformed their pain into purpose, stepping into impactful roles because they understand the profound tools at their disposal shouldn't be kept to themselves. However, amidst this powerful transformation, these women face self-doubt and limiting thoughts: "Who am I to help others?" "Am I qualified enough?" "Will anyone want to work with me?" "Can I generate more than just a hobby income?" "What if I fail?" "Is running a business something people like me do?" Despite these internal challenges, they begin on the next phase of their healing journey, breaking through self-imposed limitations and aspiring to embody a new identity as successful entrepreneurs. Listen to their courageous stories and insights on navigating and overcoming these common struggles that you might be able to relate to.

    Today's conversation is all about shedding the beliefs that no longer serve you, and becoming the version of yourself that embraces success in a way that feels authentic and aligned. As I reflect on my own entrepreneurial journey, I am challenging the "normal" way of thinking and doing business. From traditional job mentalities to redefining success, productivity, and the celebration of values, sharing my own experiences that led me to the brink of burnout in the early phases of my business – even before her books were filled. I encourage you to break free from the familiar, challenge the status quo, and redefine your journey. Yes, it might feel uncomfortable at first – your nervous system might even signal a threat. But remember, what's familiar is no longer serving you, and sitting in discomfort is the pathway to a new normal. Join me today in unbecoming the old identity and embracing a mindset where time and money are abundant, spaciousness and well-being are key metrics, and you truly become limitless.
