2024 Wrap Up & A Big Announcement
Life and Business In Flow
As I sit here, reflecting on seven incredible years in business and this milestone 80th episode of Life and Business in Flow, I can feel the gentle stirring of change coming. It's funny how sometimes the biggest shifts come not from pushing harder, but from finally giving ourselves permission to listen to that quiet voice within. Fresh from beautiful Bali, I've found clarity about my path forward. This year has brought some amazing experiences from a speaking event in Sydney, magazine features, holding space for women at my Spring retreat, being a guest on other podcasts, and connecting...

Why Authenticity in Business Matters Now More Than Ever
Life and Business In Flow
Ever notice how everyone's Instagram feed and their stories are starting to look and sound exactly the same? Scrolling through social media these days, it's hard to tell businesses apart - same poses, same filters, same carefully curated perfection. Why does authenticity in business matter now more than ever? Because we've forgotten something vital - our own stories are what truly connect us with others. It's not about being perfect or copying what works for someone else. It's about being real. I love seeing women let go of all the "shoulds" and find their own way. Moving past...

Courage, Consistency and a Retreat
Life and Business In Flow
The deepest transformations happen when we finally give ourselves permission to pause. In a world where being constantly "on" has become our default, where exhaustion runs deep and that feeling of being needed by everyone leaves us depleted, we've forgotten what it means to truly rest. At my recent women's retreat, I witnessed something magical - eight incredible women found their way back to themselves. In that sacred space, layers of armour fell away, masculine energy softened, and each woman rediscovered what it meant to simply breathe and be. They arrived carrying their...

The Leadership Gap in Small Business with Adrian Addamo
Life and Business In Flow
Did you start your business solo, wearing all the hats and juggling every responsibility? It’s exciting at first - until your business grows, your team expands, and suddenly you find yourself in uncharted territory. You’re not alone. This is a turning point for so many business owners and a challenge that we keep seeing time and time again. Leadership isn’t just about setting targets - it’s about rolling up your sleeves and getting in the trenches with your team, inspiring and guiding them in a way that makes everyone feel seen and valued because this is where real growth...

Overwhelm in Business Starts at Home
Life and Business In Flow
We often underestimate the impact that our home environment and lifestyle have on our business. When your home is chaotic, your mind is cluttered, and that spills into everything else. Many of us are trying to juggle so much - business, family, schedules and health. Without a strong foundation, it can all start to crumble leaving you feeling completely overwhelmed and possibly even resentful towards your business because of it. Over the years, I’ve learned that having an organised life isn’t just about tidying up or making sure the laundry is done. It’s about creating a...

Become the Business Owner Your Business Needs You to Be
Life and Business In Flow
As business owners, we often get caught up in the day-to-day tasks, especially in the early years.

In today’s episode, we're diving into what it truly means to become the business owner your business needs you to be. From having the right support and systems, how to become the leader your team needs, managing a business as a creative, and...

Why Creating a Course and Passive Income Aren’t Always the Answer
Life and Business In Flow
Creating a course and products for passive income might not be the answer you’re looking for. Passive income and “making money while you sleep” are sold to us everywhere online as the ultimate goal in your business and something we should aim for. It’s become a bit of a fad - if you don’t have one, it’s easy to feel like you’re falling behind. I’m here to tell you that it’s not the magic solution, it can actually do more harm than good, and there are other steps you can take in your business before giving into the course creation hype. Creating a...

Why Quick Fixes Don't Work and What to Do Instead
Life and Business In Flow
Business doesn’t have to be hard. Sure, there are highs, lows and times when you need to invest more effort, but with the right systems and processes in place from the start, you can create a more peaceful, sustainable business. Many women find themselves stuck in a cycle of hard, avoiding what could truly help them, and getting caught in the endless noise of online “shoulds”. This leads to saying yes to everything, neglecting boundaries, and hesitation in making necessary changes. Instead, they procrastinate, overthink, and chase quick fixes or small wins,...

The Hidden Costs of Fear and How It's Holding You Back
Life and Business In Flow
I’ve been having a lot of conversations lately with clients around fear. It’s something that is rearing its ugly head more and more whether it's around fear of spending, saving, or investing money, fear of not keeping up with what others are doing, fear of implementing new processes and software, or fear of hiring - these fears can be paralyzing. But have you considered what this fear is costing you? Is it keeping you from building the brand you've always dreamed of? Is it preventing you from getting the mentoring and support you need? Is it robbing you of your health and time with...

Fresh from beautiful Bali, I've found clarity about my path forward. This year has brought some amazing experiences from a speaking event in Sydney, magazine features, holding space for women at my Spring retreat, being a guest on other podcasts, and connecting with incredible women who, just like me, are seeking a more intentional way of being in this world.
As we step into 2025, I'm embracing an exciting evolution in how I serve and support women, one that honours a life that truly flows and brings women back home to themselves. Before we wrap up this year though, I have a heartfelt announcement to share - something that I’ve been sitting with for some time now.
This episode is a reminder to be open to change and to the beauty of allowing ourselves to evolve as needed.
