In this season finale of Expressed, I share something deeply personal: the journey of losing my voice — not physically, but emotionally and spiritually — and the process of finding it again.
This conversation is a reflection on the layers that shaped my expression over the last few years, including:
How tying my income to my online presence created pressure to say the “right” things
The impact of criticism and the online climate on my confidence to share freely
The way sharing Human Design knowledge gradually replaced my own creative storytelling
My experience in an emotionally abusive relationship and how it silenced parts of me
How deception and being catfished in dating eroded my sense of safety online
The longing to belong that led me to keep parts of my life hidden
What shifted when I decided to share more of my faith and my baptism publicly
I open up about the fears I held around being judged for my beliefs and how stepping into authenticity created new freedom in my expression.
You’ll hear about:
The evolution of my work and identity from passion and purpose coaching to leadership, brand, and expression mentoring
The realisation that it’s possible to share more than one side of who you are
The moment I knew I was no longer performing for the world but for an audience of One
Why my relationship with God and the love of Jesus has been the greatest catalyst for reclaiming my voice
This is an episode about truth, belonging, and what it means to live expressed.
If you’ve ever felt afraid to say the thing that matters most to you — whether it’s your beliefs, your story, or simply your heart — I hope this encourages you to take your own brave step.

In this powerful episode, I unpack why entrepreneurship is a sport. I share the profound lessons I learned watching elite sprinters train for the Olympics and how their mindset, preparation, and devotion mirror what it takes to build and sustain meaningful work in business.
I also introduce my Create Like an Athlete™ Framework, a fresh approach to planning your creative seasons intentionally so you don’t burn out or back down. You’ll discover why discipline isn’t the enemy of creativity — it’s the training ground that makes lasting impact possible.
If you’re feeling stretched, stuck, or unsure how to pace yourself for the long game, this episode will inspire you to step back, recalibrate, and approach your work with renewed clarity and commitment.
In This Episode, I Cover
Why entrepreneurship requires the same discipline, endurance and devotion as elite sport
The four creative seasons every entrepreneur cycles through, and how to honour each one:
Pre-Season: Preparation and positioning
In-Season: Execution and performance
Transition Season: Reflection and recalibration
Off Season: Recovery and replenishment
How lack of discipline – not too much of it – is often what leads to burnout
Why your creative stamina and character matter more than motivation
How to train for the results you want to hold, rather than just wishing for them
Three reflection questions to help you identify your current season and next steps
Key Quotes
"Potential can spark a vision, but only preparation can sustain it."
"Discipline doesn’t drain you, it trains you."
"We don’t rise to the level of our goals – we rise to the level of our preparation."
"Not everything is meant to be easy, but it is meant to be meaningful."

If you enjoyed this conversation, I’d be so grateful if you’d share it with a friend or leave a review. It helps more women step into their purpose with confidence and resilience.
If you’re feeling like 2025 has already slipped through your fingers — and not quite in the way you pictured — this conversation is for you.
In this honest mid-year reflection, I’m sharing my own journey through unexpected challenges, deep surrender, and the quiet transformation that has marked the first half of the year.
I’ll walk you through the idea of a Winter Arc: a dedicated season to pause, to reckon with what’s no longer serving you, and to lay the foundations that will carry you into the second half of the year with clarity, conviction, and a steadier heart.
From letting go of misaligned visions, to recommitting to the smallest habits that often shape the biggest outcomes, this is an invitation to reset in a way that feels anchored, hopeful, and true to the woman you’re becoming.
✨ In This Episode, I Share:
Why 2025 has been a year of deep surrender and unexpected plot twists
The grief and beauty of turning 40 — and releasing old stories about where I should be by now
What it means to live a Winter Arc and how to use this season as a springboard
Five areas to focus on over the next two months:
Reflect – Review what’s worked, what hasn’t, and what you’re carrying forward
Realign – Remove the habits draining your energy and replace them with intention
Recommit – Choose 3–5 simple daily habits to rebuild your foundations
Rebuild – Reassess your goals and set clear priorities for the rest of the year
Romanticise – Slow down, be present, and infuse your life with small moments of joy
The power of surrendering your plans to God — and trusting in a bigger story unfolding
📝 Episode Highlights
“We can’t rebuild what we haven’t reviewed.”
“Winter teaches us that beautiful things grow underground first.”
“Decide not just what you’re fasting from — but what you’re fasting for.”
“Presence isn’t always easy, but it’s where the miracles happen.”

If you found this episode helpful, it would mean so much if you’d leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Your words help more people discover the show and remind them they’re not alone in their experience.
The value you carry isn’t fixed. It evolves — with every new season of your brand, every layer of clarity you embody, every expansion of your leadership and expression.
But most messaging doesn’t reflect that evolution. It stays tethered to a former version of you — one that may have fit your business last year, but no longer reflects who you are now.
In this episode, I’m sharing the Value Mastery Blueprint™, a five-part framework designed to help you reclaim and articulate your value at this new level — so you can lead, speak and create with conviction, not hesitation.
Whether you're pivoting, refining or rising — this is the structure that brings your evolution into form.
Inside this episode, we explore:
Why your value isn’t up for debate — but it does need to be reclaimed
The five layers of the Value Mastery Blueprint™
What it really means to build a brand rooted in depth, originality and embodied presence
Ready to move from confusion to cohesion?
This is one of the core pillars inside Luminous — my 6-week creative leadership experience designed to help you refine your voice, claim your value and architect your next chapter with clarity.
If doors have closed, we continue this work deeply inside Essence Mentorship — my private mentorship container for the woman ready to lead with clarity, confidence and creative conviction. You can also book a one off Spark Session to work on this aspect alone.
Access the free Value, Vision and Voice training here.
In this episode, we're diving deep into the real meaning of vision — the creative, spiritual and strategic compass behind everything you build.
If you’ve been evolving and the clarity that once fuelled you now doesn't quite fit — this conversation will meet you where you're at. Because the next level of your leadership doesn’t begin with what you do — it begins with what you see. And the courage to design from there.
I’ll also be sharing reflections inspired by two powerful episodes of Chef’s Table: Legends, and how both Jamie Oliver and José Andrés showed me that legacy isn’t built in the splash — it’s created in the quiet conviction of a visionary life.
The difference between a business and a brand — and why vision is the anchor behind both
Why your next chapter requires new clarity, not more content
The power of José Andrés’ quote: “Now is the moment you’re shining. That’s the moment you have to make it count.”
How the Visioneering Framework™ helps you structure your next chapter with soul and strategy
Why vision is less about what’s visible — and more about what’s possible
✨ If this episode spoke to you…
This is the foundation we move through inside Luminous — my 6-week creative leadership experience designed to refine your voice, claim your value and expand your brand with clarity and conviction.
If Luminous is no longer open, this is also the starting point of my 1:1 mentorship, Essence — where we map and embody the next evolution of your work, together. Or we can work on this aspect in a one off Spark Session.

I’m taking you behind the scenes of a season that’s been one of the most challenging — and character-building — I’ve ever walked through.
In it, I’m sharing the real truth about discipline, devotion and creative endurance…not as a strategy, but as a way of being.
Because what I’ve learned is this:
Your vision won’t just require big ideas. It will require inner structure, self-leadership and follow-through — especially when things don’t go to plan.
Inside this episode, I dive into:
✨ Why my 2025 plan had to be scrapped after a single word — discipline — changed everything
✨ The creative and energetic shifts I’ve made (goodbye caffeine, phone mornings and dopamine chasing 👋🏼)
✨ How I’ve produced more in five weeks than I did in the five months before — not by doing more, but by focusing on what actually matters
✨ Why perseverance isn’t about pushing — but about staying connected to your calling, even when things get quiet
✨ What I’ve learned about strength, nervous system regulation and building sustainable momentum (without burning yourself out)
Plus, I’m sharing the story of how Sprint came to life — and why it’s not just a program, but a training ground for the leaders who are ready to move with power, focus and clarity.
This isn’t a motivational episode. It’s an invitation — to build the kind of creative endurance that lasts.
Because success isn’t found in a moment of inspiration. It’s built through repetition, integrity and the decision to keep showing up…even when the results aren’t instant.

Feeling like you’re starting over? You’re not - really. In this episode, we’re breaking down The Reinvention Myth - the idea that no skill, experience or past chapter is ever wasted. Every pivot, passion and detour is actually a building block that’s shaping your next evolution.
I’ll take you through my own journey - from selling handmade bags at 15 to blogging, designing, styling, photography, event management, coaching and creative direction. At every stage, I wasn’t starting from zero - I was starting with the skills I had developed in each chapter.
If you’ve ever wondered whether your past work still holds value, or if your next step feels like a 'reset', this episode will remind you: everything you’ve done is leading somewhere.
In This Episode, We’ll Cover:
✨ How Steve Jobs' Stanford Commencement Speech changed the way I saw my own journey
✨ The early business that first sparked my love for branding and creativity
✨ Why trying on different "hats" helped me refine my purpose - not lose it
✨ How my past in fashion, styling and events still shapes my work today
✨ The full-circle moments that proved no skill goes to waste
✨ A simple reflection to help you recognise your hidden strengths
Reflection:
💡 Think back on a skill you used to love but haven’t used in years. How could you bring a piece of that back into your work today?
💡 What’s one strength you’ve overlooked that has actually been a foundation for your success?

Off the back of my personal journey update in Episode 1, 2023 really took me to the depths of my own metamorphosis and rebirth.
I noticed in this process how similar our own journey with this is to the Caterpillar that becomes the butterfly. When I was exploring this concept, I saw a quote that said:
"How does one become a butterfly?", she asked.
"You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar".
When we're in the thick of change, it can be difficult to want to give up the known, the comfort and the familiar in order to step into the expansion on the other side.
My hope with this podcast is it gives you a structure to lean into as you navigate the seas of inevitable change in your own life that you can return back to again and again and again - and begin to see it instead as a catalyst for growth and new opportunities.
In this episode, i'll be walking you through the three step process to powerfully navigate change:
1. Deliquesce {to become liquid}. In this step, we dissolve the resistance to shedding the old and welcoming the new.
2. Transform {to change in structure}. Now we stabilise your inner world to allow the frame to hold you as you step into the evolution that awaits.
3. Revival {a restoration of spiritual vigour}. In the final phase, we anchor into faith and take a step of courage to strengthen the new wings we've built.
Breathwork Journey to use for Step 2.
If you want to take this a little deeper, you can check out the Metamorphosis 3 Day Training I ran earlier in the year that includes a customised breathwork journey and additional resources for just $47.
Enjoy loves! I hope this supports you to stretch your wings and fly xx
