Do you pride yourself on being ‘good under pressure'?What if I told you that what feels like a strength might actually be a repetitive stress response in disguise?In this eye-opening episode, I'm diving deep into why so many of us have built our identities around thriving in high-pressure situations – and what's really happening in our bodies when we do.In this episode I'm sharing:The biochemical reason why we become ‘addicted' to pressure (and the hormonal cocktail that keeps us coming back for more)Why your ability to handle anything thrown at you might have deeper roots than you realiseThe subtle ways this pattern shows up in daily lifeThe hidden cost of constantly operating in the ‘red zone'Why the goal is not to be calm all the time (& what is instead)JOIN THE REAL-TIME REGULATION WAITLISTComing this March: A completely new approach to stress management that works in real time, real life.'Real Time Regulation' isn't another wellness program asking you to find more time in your already full schedule.

Let's be honest. Trying to combat stress by scheduling more self-care just doesn't work for your real life.Most generic stress advice tells you to schedule more 'me-time', do more yoga, or start a meditation practice (like you have the time). But what if the secret to managing stress isn't about finding more time (because let's be real, where would that even come from?) but by about learning how to listen and respond to your body in the moment? In this powerful episode, we're busting the self-care myth and diving into what your body needs from you instead.I'm sharing:Why most of us have been conditioned to ignore our body's unique stress signals (and how this now shows up in our lives in sneaky ways)The real reason generic stress advice keeps falling flat and you can't seem to get your stress levels under controlHow to start recognising your personal stress patterns, including some surprising signals you might be missingWhy being physically active or into wellness doesn't automatically mean you're connected to your body and know how to listen to itThe real reason you're disconnected from your body's wisdom (it started way before adulthood)What some of my own unique stress signals look like and how they differ from my husband's JOIN THE REAL-TIME REGULATION WAITLISTComing this March: A completely new approach to stress management that works in real time, real life.'Real Time Regulation' isn't another wellness program asking you to find more time in your already full schedule.

In this episode, I am joined by special guest, Krysle O'Neil, who is a healer and empowerment coach, to chat all things mindset, manifestation inner healing. She shares her experiences with burnout, self-neglect and negative body image... but what we really sink our teeth into is her experience manifesting winning her first professional boxing fight this year. She gives us the honest BTS of her entire manifestation process behind winning that fight and the mindset that was required for her to get there. As someone with zero experience and no professional training, she was the underdog who surprised everyone when she came out victorious!It's an incredible story and really speaks to the power of deciding, of self-belief, and of embodying the identity of the winner before she'd even stepped foot in the ring.Krystle empowers ambitious women to really own their greatness and unapologetically step into a life that's illuminated by their passions and purpose. She is a 1/3 Projector in HD, a Cancer Sun and Capricorn Rising, which gives her the perfect mix of modern day medicine woman and badass biz babe. She currently lives in Queenstown, NZ.We explore:How she went from burnout, a pattern of self-neglect and negative body image to manifesting winning her first professional boxing fight last year (with zero professional training!)Why boxing was such a powerful source of inner healing for Krystle The mindset that was required to overcome self-doubt as the underdog pitted against a conditioned fighterThe specific manifestation tools she used in the months leading up to the fight and during the fight itself, including detachment and visualisationThe power of intention, self-trust and being a winner in her mind firstHow she reframed the negative thoughts as a mindset coach to prove to herself what she was capable ofThe level of abundance Krystle has unlocked (in all aspects of her life) as a result of transcending her limiting beliefs and arriving into an elevated level of personal powerIt's an incredible conversation and I hope you enjoy it!

There's a big misconception that feeling resistance is a sign you're out of alignment when it comes to business. Because being in alignment should feel natural and flowy, right?Not necessarily...In this episode, I'm breaking down:Why feeling resistance is normal even when you're moving in alignment Why the advice of "follow the path of least resistance" trains you to avoid discomfort and keeps you stuck in your comfort zoneThe reason you SHOULD be feeling resistance when it comes to your business and why it's a sign of expanding into your edge Why switching out of autopilot and forming new habits is so difficult and why it's something you must consciously work onHolding the duality – on choosing our authenticity WHILE ALSO feeling resistant to change (and why we're capable of holding multiple truths)Hope you enjoy this episode!

“I'm ready to make some shifts to bring my business into more alignment… but where the hell do I even begin?!” Start with your ENVIRONMENT. From the content you're consuming to the people you are surrounding yourself with, your environment is influencing you more than you would believe.In this episode, I'm sharing one intentional shift I made when it came to cultivating an environment that was supportive of the direction I wanted to head.We explore:The reason your environment is one of the key shapers of identity, both from an energetic and neuroscientific perspectiveWhy consciously monitoring what energy you allow into your field is *crucial* when it comes to your businessThe impact an open or undefined head centre in Human Design can have on business, specifically in relation to how you can be influenced by other coaches' strategies or business models (even if they're out of alignment for you)How mirror neurons in your brain work to remember and mimic what you expose yourself to (and how this can be both a positive and negative thing depending on the environment you are intentionally or unintentionally cultivating)Hope you enjoy this episode!

Inviting you deep inside my hermit cave where I've been hiding out for the past 6 weeks.

Despite what you might believe, working fewer hours in your business does NOT equate to less revenue.In this episode we're talking about something that is really important to me, something that I've worked very intentionally on over the past little while: how you can integrate more white space into your week.I guide you through 5 things I look at in my clients' businesses to help them find more white space WITHOUT compromising their income. Because this is the fear right? More white space equals doing less. And ‘doing' less equals less money... which is so not the case! This is a really interesting belief to explore and is why identity work is a key component in my work with my clients.The 5 questions we will deep dive into are:What does the week currently look like? What days/hours are you working in your business?What can be outsourced?What can be automated and systemised?How can your natural energy be better optimised?What strategies, offers or processes can be tweaked or optimised to create more space?Hope you enjoy the episode!

A BTS peek into my fearless commitment to bring my business into alignment and my ruthless release of everything that didn't fit... including 90% of my offers.In this episode I open up about the shocking discovery that the business I'd constructed was significantly misaligned with my authentic self (despite my perceptions). I discuss the process of accepting this truth, the steps I took to dismantle almost everything I'd built, and how this led to the reformation of my business into a genuine reflection of my true expression.

Why your business should NOT be a personal extension of you, the dangers of being enmeshed, and how to disentangle yourself so your business can have greater impact and you, individually, can have greater peace. In this episode, I share how important it is to hold duality in entrepreneurship: to be able to hold two truths simultaneously – that you are BOTH an emotional being AND the CEO of your business, and for those truths to be able to coexist separately so that what's happening in one area doesn't influence the other and create limitations or undue stress. We explore how to handle emotions in biz, how to come into greater self-awareness with your thoughts, and how to transcend unconscious patterning so you can ground into the fact that your business is supremely more powerful than you realise.

'Niche yourself!' – the business advice we all get shoved down our throats when we start out.
