In this episode, I recount my experience speaking at the Manifest Her event, where I participated in a wealth panel. This opportunity sparked a significant realization about the disconnect between our lofty goals and our self-belief. I emphasize the necessity of raising our "floor"—the foundation of our self-worth and belief in our capabilities—before we can effectively reach higher goals. I discuss how failing to address this gap can lead to a cycle of self-sabotage, where unmet goals diminish our self-esteem even further. I encourage listeners to define their success and assess whether...

On this Valentine's Day episode, which emphasizes love and connection, I share a personal journey of self-discovery and the importance of leading with love.

I share the concept of vulnerability, discussing how many of us have been conditioned to be strong and stoic, often at the expense of our emotional well-being. I recount my struggles with this armour,...

In this episode, I dive into the concept of our daily thoughts and how they shape the narrative of our lives. I start by sharing a striking statistic: we have between 60,000 and 80,000 thoughts daily, with 80% to 90% being repetitive and predominantly negative. This realization led me to a powerful metaphor: if we write a book in our minds daily, what kind of book are we writing? What is your "daily book" revealing about you? Are the thoughts uplifting and empowering, or do they serve to tear you down? What would someone learn about you if they read the book of their thoughts from that...
