Tell us a little about your coaching business to help female entrepreneurs grow their confidence, business, and income.
Sure, well I help female entrepreneurs, specifically highly sensitive people, scale their business with confidence, alignment & freedom without the grind, second-guessing & uncertainty. I teach mental strategies to help my clients reach their goals with a fearless mindset which allows them to be confident while making aligned decisions that enhance their lives not only their business.
Some of the main themes that I guide my clients through are overcome limiting beliefs, perfectionism, procrastination, self-sabotage, overthinking, imposter syndrome, feeling overwhelmed, and to expand their comfort zone not to “step of out” it in order to succeed.
I understand that every action starts with a thought. And I believe that behind every action is a positive intention. It’s amazing that our unconscious mind makes 16,000 decisions for us a day, this is great but we can only change that which is in our conscious mind. So shining a light onto our unconscious is where true transformation is at.
Not many know but we all have our internal maps of reality, and this is made up of everything we consume, through personal vicarious experiences, social persuasion, and societal standards. So, this is projected externally and these are the perceptual filters we see our world through. If it’s no longer serving you then you have the opportunity to change these filters, and the way you view the world and this will create the experience you want to live in. You know by having your mindset aligned it actually projects into the world and this is what grows my clients' businesses and scales their income as they feel confident internally and in complete harmony within. Mindset is key to everything including wealth, happiness, and confidence.
How did you originally get into your coaching business, and what made you inspired to leave your corporate job for the entrepreneur life?
Well, I was working up the corporate ladder as a Project Manager in Australia, but it wasn’t completely satisfied. I mean I loved my job and felt so lucky to have that position at such a young age, that was until I questioned my life's purpose. I was actually on a holiday in Egypt when I realized that there had to be more to life than a 9-5 job and waiting until the weekend to truly live. Also, I’d always been interested in psychology and why we do what we do, my curious nature kept me always searching for answers.
So, in 2012 when I returned to Australia, I sold everything I owned and set off for a nomadic lifestyle traveling around the world searching for answers and a place to call home, which I finally found in Valencia, Spain. Since then, I’ve been studying all things mindset, neuroscience, behaviors, and the links to thoughts. Actually, my search and transformation took me to over 40+ countries. Through all these incredible life experiences and my own personal growth journey, this guided me to help others live their dream life with confidence, abundance, and mindfulness. Not thinking they have to conform the societal standards and live life unsatisfied. I’ve always had a calling to help and serve others, people have always opened up to me and asked for advice, so it was a natural fit to start my coaching business.
I’ve always wanted to be my own boss, live by my own values, and not compromise for another. I wanted freedom, travel, limitless income, to decide who I work with, you know I’ve always been motivated but working for a company I had my ideas held back, now I get to play and be creative, I have the full responsibility for each step and so many amazing lessons learnt along the way.
Did you initially go it alone or did you receive the support of a coach?
I knew it was important to have support from the start, and from different sides of the entrepreneurial life; from a business coach, NLP mentors, group programs for like-minded people in a community, to my own personal healing and growth through therapy. Being a highly sensitive person (HSP) myself I understand the importance of support and guidance especially the responsibility of being your own boss.
Of course, you can get there on your own but why not get there faster with guidance and a cheerleader cheering you on, celebrating your successes, the small ones not only big ones. And especially when it comes to mindset work, understanding and learning about the way the mind works is crucial for awareness as this is where true change happens. When you pair that with learning mental strategy techniques to truly transform and stop unproductive and unresourceful patterns from continuing. Breaking those cycles from the root cause is key. But using your intuition is so important as a feminine entrepreneur. It’s also important to “stay in your lane” to not follow how others gained their success as they too had their own limiting beliefs, so you could be holding yourself back by following them.
For those who are still in their 9-5 job explain to our readers how it felt to land your first client?
Absolutely, I understand the fear and concern when you have that secure monthly income and thinking about taking that leap of faith into your dream job. But when you are in alignment with your purpose, the thing that you are most passionate about, and what gives you energy, your life takes on a new meaning. Honestly, my first client felt like coming home, like I’d finally reached the place I was searching for. And I landed her by talking authentically and connecting in a real and non-salesy way.
When you are passionate about your programs, they sell themselves, as people feel your energy and the confidence you have in them. For example, my high-ticket programs are an investment not only in the program but within yourself, you’re telling yourself you are worthy, ready, and dedicated to your evolution. For this reason, I offer a complimentary NLP session to discover if we are a right fit, as I’m very particular with who I work with and for this reason, we both have to feel that connection, trust, and authentic soul to soul understanding. I’m so excited for all the growth and self-realizations my clients are about to discover to live the life they so desired and deserved.
That’s why I created my signature FEARLESS FEMALE. program because we all deserve to live a life that is filled with joy, purpose, abundance, love (of self and of others), and the unlimited possibilities to try new things, to view failure not as something negative but as a tool for growth and expansion. I also specifically work with Highly Sensitive People (HSP) as this has been a part of my journey and I believe that our sensitivity is a gift.
Even though the entrepreneur industry claims you need to be strong and resilient, I know that by being sensitive you can connect on a deeper level with your clients. It’s all about managing your energy level and boundaries. As HSP can become more overwhelmed than others due to our abilities to notice everything, all the subtleties. This means we can pick up on more things and this is an asset when you can embrace and harness this skill. You know it’s possible to take that leap of faith confidently and fearlessly knowing that you have the skills to learn everything you need in order to reach your goals and desires.
Why do you feel that mindset coaching is so crucial to people who want to live the entrepreneurial life?
Well specifically with mindset coaching it is the only thing holding you back from truly living the life of your dreams. You can learn all the business strategies and blueprints and still not have the success you see others having using the same strategies. Why is that? Mindset is the key. We all do the best with what we currently have but saying “either you have it or you don’t” come from a fixed mindset. Working with a mindset coach can help you retrain your mental strategies, you can learn how you make choices unconsciously, how to overcome fear, and what’s holding you back. This mindfulness allows you to step into your growth mindset, which is filled with abundance, confidence, a beginner’s mind that is open to all possibilities fearlessly. Every action starts with a thought, and I have noticed an increase in other coaches adding in mindset modules in their programs as they see the worth and need for mindset work, to have an empire that is sustainable and enjoyable.
How would you describe the life of an entrepreneur to our readers?
Well, it depends on what path you take. You could take the usual path, following blueprints, courses, and copying others that came before you, and by consuming social media and focusing on what others are doing. Or you could choose to follow your own unique path and really uncover your harmony within. Allowing your intuition to guide you and ensuring your both your values and actions are in alignment.
For example, my clients' lives after working with me are filled with the heart and mind connection, this attracts abundance and wealth, but it’s more than just the expansion of income, which is a by-product of the deep inner work. It’s actually priceless how their mindset has opened them up to a world filled with fun, and pleasure without the need to grind or feeling they have to struggle their way to the top. They are confident within themselves, they have a clear understanding of how their emotions manifest in their bodily response and being able to read their feeling indicators and use the NLP tools they’ve learnt to consciously course correct. They have aligned their unconscious goals with their new conscious goals to there is no longer internal conflict. And they have freedom of time for family, friends, travel, and creating special moments with loved ones, which is a huge reason why my clients want to be their own CEO along with wanting to make a positive impact on the world and sharing their unique gifts because they know it is united with their life’s purpose. They have freedom in all aspects of their lives. But most importantly they are no longer held back from limiting beliefs and fear. This is how I would describe the life of being a fearless female entrepreneur.
What has been the most invaluable life lessons you've learnt from building your own business?
Trust yourself! It sounds so simple but listen to your intuition. I know most associate our intuitions with our guts, that spiritual knowing, however from a neuroscience and NLP perspective this is a collection of experiences, data, knowledge in our unconscious that makes risk assessment decisions faster than you could ever process consciously. It’s because of this we don’t know why we feel something we just “know” it feels right because our mind is so powerful and our unconscious mind will always win against our conscious mind. And getting to know how your mind works and the strategies it uses to behaviour and take action is life-changing. I’ve also learnt to lean into “failure” which I don’t like to use this word, I prefer to say “moments of learning”.
I believe that rejection is the universes protection, and this allows me to reflect and realign with my goals and come back to my fundamental motivation and values. It’s so easy to get swept up in the masculine energy of strategies, struggle, hustle, grind but that is a form of pushing and you could be pushing away soul clients. It’s true that I’ve been conditioned by the corporate world that the only way to succeed is by acting from the masculine energy – I disagree wholeheartedly! I’ve learnt to lean into my feminine energy, go with the flow of my 4 phases in each month and use them to my advantage. I no longer fit into my schedule but I create my schedule around my natural energy phases.
Being an HSP it’s imperative to honour your energy boundaries and to go slow to prevent the burnout and overwhelm associated with the hustle and grind mentality. I also have learnt to not consume things that doesn’t align with where I am going, and including who you surround yourself with, as this has a direct influence on how you show up in the world and use your perceptual filters we spoke about earlier.
So, when you’re not building your female empire where do you like to spend most of your time?
It’s so important for that work/life balance, actually no, it’s more life than work! Of course, in the beginning, most entrepreneurs get caught in the trap of spending every waking moment in that grind getting their business off the ground, but usually, they are focused on the wrong aspects. I fell into that trap also because I was following the strategies that say you need a website and all the backend stuff that none of your clients really care about. They just want results. But isn’t that why we all wanted this entrepreneurial life, to really live it?! So, you can usually find me in nature with my husband and dog hiking mountains, or at the beach. Luckily, we live in Spain, so we have the best of both worlds! I love breathwork and yoga to manage my energy levels and ensure I stay grounded and do not get overwhelmed, and I love running by the lake, playing tennis, and working out. We are a very active family! I love to flex my mind and body to see the limits they have, it is incredible what our bodies will do with the right mindset. We also are motorcycle lovers, so we are often on the open road having adventures or traveling to see new places, cultures, people, and food. We love trying new cuisines!
