Do you ever feel like the success you’ve worked so hard for is beginning to get you down? 

You love your business, (and if you’re like me!) it feels like your first child. You honestly couldn’t be prouder of it. Still, between the endless to-do lists, constant plate spinning, and the never ending responsibility of holding it all together, you barely have time to breathe—let alone enjoy the life you’ve created. 

And, yet, you still want MORE. 

You have big ambitions to grow your business even further. But right now, you just can’t find the time or the headspace to do the fun stuff like strategic thinking and experimenting with new offers and services as you are too busy wading through treacle in wellie boots filled with rocks. 

Look, I know you know how to succeed. You’ve already proven you can build a successful business, but how do you succeed in a way that lets you really enjoy your...

“As a leader I struggle being strong for everyone and feel lonely and isolated in having to make all the big decisions myself.”

Sound familiar? Running a business while juggling the demands of family life can make it feel like an impossible balancing act with burnout lurking around every corner.

The Weight of Leadership

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders, making every decision yourself, and struggling to delegate because no one else can do it quite the way you can—you’re not alone. The constant overwhelm can leave you feeling exhausted and disconnected, both from your business and the people who matter most. 

But what if there was a way to grow your business with ease, reclaim your time, and confidently step into a leadership role without the constant stress?

In this blog, we’ll explore the four key business growth levers—positioning, profit, process, and...

Do you feel it?

The pressure—from others, or even from yourself—to constantly perform at your best? 

The overwhelming sense that you always need to be ‘on,’ never showing weakness, and certainly never admitting that sometimes it’s impossible to do it all?

It’s exhausting. Yet, you keep pushing through. After all, you’re at the top of your game as a business owner, or an executive leader. And, often the expectation is that you’ll never slow down. But inside, it feels like you're teetering on a precipice just waiting for it all to come crashing down.

Underneath the surface, feelings of resentment can creep in. You struggle to focus. At times, the work that once brought you joy now feels like an obligation. You find yourself spinning on a hamster wheel, with no clear way out, resigned to riding this roller coaster as long as you can.

As someone who has experienced burnout more than once, which...

You deserve a business that provides for you financially, fulfils your purpose, realises your ambitions and feels simple and fun to run. Agree?

On a scale of 1-10, how well does your business currently hit those measures?

Perhaps, you’ve lost faith in this even being possible? 

So often, the realities of running a business are filled with confusion, overwhelm and a roller coaster of highs and lows as you navigate fluctuating cash flow and constant change in the world of sales and marketing. 

Many of us aim to hit 6-figures in revenue as it feels like a significant milestone that will not only give you the financial reward you worked so hard for but also validation you are doing it right.

And isn’t that what we need on the days when it feels like we are pushing treacle up a hill!

It can be easy to get swept up in the idea of having a successful, 6-figure business and channelling all your energies into what seem to be...

How do you feel about money? 

Does the thought of it make you feel icky? 

What about asking for it?

Do you feel relaxed when you ask for a sale or does it give you the squirmy feeling in your tummy just thinking about it? 

Money has the ability to make us a little uncomfortable, even though we handle it every day.

I don’t think a day goes by when we aren’t making some kind of monetary transaction. After all, it’s what pays the bills and keeps a roof over our heads. But equally, it’s a topic that many of us find tricky to navigate.

The same can be said for business - perhaps even more so!

You don’t have to look very far on LinkedIn to see posts discussing the pros and cons of transparent pricing or discussions around whether you should work for free or not.

I imagine that many of you, myself included, have sat on calls with clients, dreading having to discuss your rates,...

You might have seen me mention it once or twice on social media recently, but I and 9 other amazing women wrote a book!

Awakened Leaders finally landed last month and with it, the opportunity and belief that it is possible to turn the tide on traditional approaches to doing business.

As a business coach and strategist, I have always been passionate about working with and encouraging women to embrace their femininity and letting it guide them on their journey to run their business in a way that works for them, rather than clinging onto strategies and tactics that go against their gut feeling.

But I also believe that we shouldn’t gate-keep the transformations that we as leaders go through - with success comes an opportunity to lift up others and Awakened Leaders - How To Become The Leader The World Needs Now is the perfect platform to do just that.

My Personal Journey: From Burnout to Business Coach

I am incredibly open about my own journey. Why?...

Rewind 9 years... I remember the feeling of deciding to take the plunge and start my own business.

I think the best way to describe it is excited and absolutely terrified in equal measure!

As I recovered from my breakdown and burnout, I knew my next chapter had to involve me making a bigger, more tangible difference. I was utterly driven by impact, meaning and contribution. And I felt the corporate environment was just too constraining for me to do the work that I loved with the freedom to dance to the beat of my own drum, have great balance in my life and the create impact I dreamt of. 

So, like so many others who have taken big risks to make a bigger contribution, I decided to launch myself into the world of entrepreneurship and go it alone.  

I  knew I was really good at my thing, which at the time was primarily Executive and Performance Coaching, but I had no idea how to market either myself or my business or how to position my services.

I had...

Ever wondered what separates the businesses that succeed no matter what is happening in the economy? 

Does all the talk of downturns and the cost of living crisis keep you awake at night? 

It can be a real area of legitimate concern for business owners and entrepreneurs who are continually riding the rollercoaster of highs and lows that so often accompany entrepreneurship.

The good news is, there is a solution to this inner turmoil and it might be simpler than you think.

Why Your Business Needs A Strategy

In the current economic climate, it’s more important than ever to have a solid business strategy. 

I don’t just mean having a plan or tactics - those are the methods to help you deliver your strategy. 

What sets businesses apart is developing a clear strategy for growth that uses both external and internal measures and research.

Time and again we see those that thrive in challenging economic conditions...

Reaching the coveted 6-figure milestone is a significant achievement for entrepreneurs, reflecting their commitment, dedication and tenacity to grow their business by adding value to others.

As a coach and business strategist who has worked with many entrepreneurs to help them create, grow and scale their businesses to 6 figures, I’ve seen that while no business owner is the same, there are certainly common themes that occur. 

In this blog, I’ll break down the strategies you can adopt to achieve your 6-figure business goal, but it’s key to note that two things underpin my philosophy and approach:

Your business, your way - I don’t believe in a ‘cookie-cutter’ approach.

Embrace your unique approach to business; it's not about following a template but crafting a strategy that resonates with you and your values. Once you identify the perfect blend of profitable offer/s with a marketing eco-system that you enjoy, you can easily scale to 6...

The Journey Towards Conscious Business Coaching

From the outside, you might think that I have cracked being a business owner and entrepreneur - it’s an easy assumption to make given that I am a business strategist making a career out of demonstrating to other female business owners how they can achieve success. 

But it hasn’t always been this way! 

I was always a high performer and climbed the corporate ladder. I was the definition of ‘traditional success.’

But one day everything fell apart and I burnt out. Tired of trying to keep up with someone else’s idea of success and my own high standards, I walked away from my life as I knew it and my corporate career to take a career break. 

I had no idea what my future would look like.

But one thing that felt utterly essential was that in my next professional chapter, I needed to make a meaningful contribution and a positive impact.

With the right conditions, that seed evolved and grew...
