It's a fact that people in business don't want to talk publicly about being scared. Instead, they usually want to talk about success and confidence and 'look at all the people queuing down the street to buy my stuff.'  

Unsurprisingly, I'm not one to...

PSA - No one is going to buy from you if they don't know you exist.

Sounds obvious, right?

Well, apparently, not so much. You see, I talk to people every day who are terrified of becoming visible in their businesses and, in some cases, their lives because the truth is, once...

Here's something that made me laugh last week: I saw a post on Instagram that went like this: Running a business is a walk in the park... Jurassic Park

We've been friends for a little while now, so you know I'm all about a great business message and good energy, but let's...

Here's something that has been keeping up lately (and as a girl who loves her sleep, this is not usual): 

Why do we keep doing things we don't like or that don't improve our lives in the name of our business? 

I see it all the time; somehow, somewhere down the...

How often do you find yourself holding back?

Perhaps you've been invited to speak from the stage, had a chance to raise your hand in a meeting and offer an opposing view, speak up about injustice or advocate for yourself in the home, and you turned it down, sitting...

I've been off on my travels again! This time, taking in the sights and sounds of London. I love our nation's capital with all of its vibrancy and noise; everywhere you go, there's something new to see or experience, and I always want to drink it all in before the next thing...

Last weekend was a bank holiday in the UK, and I was in bed with a head cold... The audacity! 

I had plans for the weekend, which included getting ahead on various projects and taking a walk or two, but there I was in my PJs, coffee on the nightstand, and a...

Here's something I've been asking myself since I heard it on a call with a bunch of amazing business people last week: How much can this moment deliver to me? 

As it always goes, this message arrived at a time when each moment was little more than a colourful furry...

Here's something I've noticed recently: the women I work with and speak to tend to fall into one of two camps.

Camp 1 - I don't know what's coming next, and it terrifies me. 

and

Camp 2 - I don't know what's coming next, and it thrills me.

I imagine camp...

As I continue to navigate this year's waters, I find myself often stopping to catch my breath—sometimes in a WTAF way and, more increasingly, in a 'wow, the universe is working some big magic this year' kind of way. I notice that the doors I once raced to stop closing...

Do you ever find yourself making commitments for things you don't want to or don't have the energy to do when the time comes around? Do you ever make a bunch of plans on Monday and then end up bailing on Thursday?

You are not alone. It could be that your inner...

Do you ever sit down at the end of the week and think, woah! That was intense!

That's pretty much how I felt as I sat down to write my list last week.

On Monday, we moved into a new office space. It's close to the river, has HUGE windows, a lovely breakout area with fresh coffee...

Can we talk about routines for a minute? I have been on both sides of this spiky little fence and, in both cases, made pretty good arguments for both. 

When I first became self-employed, I SHUNNED my routine. I went full Braveheart, charging around declaring frrrreeedddoommm...

Last week was my birthday, and it marked the beginning of my 44th trip around the sun. I drank cocktails and a lot of water (I've learned that hydration and balance are key for me to avoid feeling sluggish and hungover), I enjoyed a 360 immersive experience in the stunning...

I don't know about you, but this last week or two has been heccttiiccc. By the time last weekend came around, it was all I could do to get into clean pj's under my heated blanket (game changer), switch on a movie and take in a few hours in blissful comedies and more...

Last week, I was asked to give a talk to creative media students at a local college (which was all kinds of fabulous). While preparing a slide deck for the event, I reflected on my journey to becoming The Female CEO and what worked and didn't. I was surprised by some of the...
