Do the heart work first

Do the heart work first

Do you resist what you most long to do? The work of your heart. That creative dream. The yearning to shift your business in a new direction, to let go of the old and invite your clients into the new. Maybe your dream is to make a film, write a book, create your own jewellery […]

How to run with your big idea

Sharing your big idea to the world

Are you struggling to show up online, create valuable content, or figure out how to get your message to those who need it most, in a way that feels good to you?

There’s a pattern I see when entrepreneurs try to write their own sites. You start out by looking at others in your field. You find someone who has a great website, and you decide to use it as inspiration. You want to create a website that is similar to your competitor’s, but you still want […]

Are you saying what you really want to say?

Lately I’ve been meeting and working with a lot of women who are struggling with the same issue. And it’s driving me crazy. So today I am calling you out. (Given the subject of this blog, I don’t really have a choice). Are you saying what you really want to say? Before I begin, I […]
