Here is my story & perhaps is yours too....

For over a decade, I have lived and breathed the highs and lows of entrepreneurship. I know what it’s like to pour yourself into your work, yet still feel like you’re treading water, waiting for permission, or wondering if you’re truly enough.

I spent years performing instead of fully expressing, fearing rejection, battling perfectionism, and comparing myself to others—all while trying to build something impactful.

I struggled with self-doubt, burnout, and the constant pull between what I truly wanted to create and what I thought I should be doing. I let myself be influenced by what seemed to work for others, waiting to feel ready, holding back from doing the work I loved out of fear of getting it wrong.

And that lack of trust in myself? It led to lack of action, lack of clarity, and a business that never quite felt like mine.

At its core, I lacked the confidence to own, trust and express who I truly was.

Here’s what I know for sure: confidence isn’t the end goal—it’s the byproduct.

It’s built in the doing—in showing up before you feel ready, in getting it wrong, adapting, learning, and trying again. It’s cultivated in the quiet moments when you choose to walk with fear, honour your imperfections, and keep going anyway.

Confidence grows when you stay anchored to what you’re really here to do in the world. Not through perfection, not through certainty—but through courageous action in the direction of what matters.

I didn’t wake up one day feeling confident. I built it—moment by moment—by choosing to trust myself in the mess, the magic, and everything in between.

And that’s how you’ll build it too.

A bit about me that you don’t always see, but I want you to know.

I’m not your typical coach—I bring my full, vibrant, ever-evolving self into everything I do. I’m a chai-drinking, rock music-blasting, tattoo-collecting, oracle card-slinging, nap-seeking, chocolate ice cream connoisseur (seriously, it’s a talent).

I’m also a proud Neuro-Spicy Ambivert Scorpio (yes, we’re as complex as it sounds) with a bushranger lineage, a feminist/anti-establishment upbringing, and German/Scottish/Irish heritage. I’ve spent decades learning and growing through my past challenges with anxiety, depression and PND.

These days, I’m “SLIVING” (slay-living, thank you Paris Hilton) with a tattoo to prove it, soaking up the sunshine by the beach with my spirited family who keeps me grounded and real.

After over a decade of living and breathing this work, I’m deeply grateful to now guide others—not just to heal, but to own their voice, trust their path, and step boldly into who they’re here to be.
