    In this short but powerful episode, I'm diving into the two key traits I see in every fast-growing client I work with: commitment and leadership.

Spoiler: it involves a lack of water, a toddler on the roof, and still serving clients at a high level. From client coaching and content creation to parenting, farm life, and chaos control, I'm walking you through how I run a multi-six figure business without the calm, quiet workdays most people picture. This one's for the women doing big things in wild circumstances—because your life doesn't have to look perfect to build a powerful business.

    In this episode of the Big Money Strategies Podcast, I'm diving deep into one of the most important mindset shifts I've made in business: letting go of small town thinking and expanding beyond my postcode. I built a multi-six figure business from a tiny Wheatbelt town with just 825 people nearby—and trust me, none of them needed a business coach. What changed everything wasn't moving or working more hours—it was thinking bigger and showing up braver. Here's what you'll learn: Why your location doesn't define your business potential How I shifted from “Wheatbelt only” to serving clients all across regional Australia The 3 key things you actually need to grow a business beyond your town How to build confidence, show up online, and stop caring what the locals think What offer structure, messaging, and mindset helped me grow without perfect conditions If you've been holding back because of where you live—or because you're waiting for local validation—this is your sign to go bigger. Let's stop shrinking our dreams to fit our postcode—and start building businesses that reflect our full potential.

Spoiler: it's not about hustle, it's about being intentional. I break down my 30-day cycle approach and how it's transformed my business from chaotic to calm. I share how I batch content, design my offers, and structure my client experience—all in a way that aligns with my energy, my menstrual cycle, and the reality of mum life. Here's what you'll learn: Why I ditched weekly planning and embraced the 30-day business rhythm How I design offers that create time freedom (without sacrificing results) Why syncing your business with your cycle matters—especially if you have ADHD My systems for staying out of fight-or-flight mode and in full flow How I serve my clients deeply without being at my desk 24/7 I also share a free training that'll help you design a profitable offer that fits your lifestyle—just DM me “income” on Instagram.
