Top mistakes female entrepreneurs make when it comes to money
Are you not where you thought you’d be when it comes to money
Are you not earning enough and it’s sometimes really scary
Are you struggling with rollercoaster months, and a lack of consistency
Can you not seem to have a breakthrough despite how hard you work
Are you starting to wonder if it’s you that’s the problem, that maybe you’re not cut out to run a business
OR maybe you’re doing really well – on paper – but struggling to enjoy your success, it’s not what you thought it’d be?
If recognise yourself in any of these, this is for you. Because there are some really common mistakes women make when it comes to being an entrepreneur and money, and it’s time we talk about them.
Buckle up for this conversation, it’s going to be a big one.
How to show up when you really really really don't want to
Sometimes you can't muster the energy to show up for your business, even though you know you should.
Even if you love your work, love your clients, even if there is no real reason you shouldn't show up and have fun doing it...
... your mojo seems to have left the building.
This conversation is directly for these times.
Here are my top tips of how to show up regardless - properly - not just phoning it in.
Lipstick all over my teeth
Lipstick all over my teeth - a tale of Imposter Syndrome when networking, and a case of self-sabotage.
If you've ever felt like you don't fit in when networking, or like a total Imposter in the room.
If you're sick of talking yourself out of opportunities and want to be braver.
If you want to connect to your tribe but feel like a weirdo.
Today's conversation is for you.
And enjoy the very first live talk from the Shedquarters - what do you think of this set up?

The secret to elevating yourself
So often we get caught up in the day to day when we’re running a business.
It’s so easy to caught in the reality trap, to lower our expectations to what we believe is possible. But this is a huge mistake.
As entrepreneurs, we’ve got to be visionaries. To not allow the nay sayers and doom mongers dampen our dreams.
One sure fire way to elevate yourself and your vision is to follow the ‘glimmers’.
The signs, specks and synchronicities that you’re on the right path.
Here’s how..
Bailing is not failing - what really happened in the bothy
I can't wait to share this story with you, the real story behind my first experience of wild camping.
Spoiler alert: we didn't make it through the night, but what actually happened is GOLD in terms of wisdom and lessons learned I can apply to my business.
Grab a cuppa and tune in, this is quite the tale...
The Biskery Interview
In this conversation I’m talking to Saskia Roskam and Lisa Shepherd, co-founders of The Biskery as they share their story of spreading love in biscuit form.
This journey has seen them go from colleagues to award-winning entrepreneurs, and their star is only on the rise.
In this extremely candid conversation we’re talking about:
🎙 What turned a germ of an idea into an award-winning business model
🎙How apple pie helped them know their audience
🎙How parenthood has helped them keep the business values-led
🎙Why The Biskery attracts an all-female team
This is a truly inspiring story, and Lisa and Saskia are true models – living proof that you CAN grow a business your way.
The bothy adventure - do something every day that scares you
Are you healed, or are you just hiding from your triggers?
This is a question that coming up a lot in my coaching conversations at the moment.
So often we can be going along, thinking we're doing really well, but really we're avoiding the scary stuff.
It's like a game of Floor Is Lava, we're hopping from safe spot to safe spot, desperately avoiding anything that will upset our carefully curated equilibrium.
This is such a shame, and such a wasted opportunity.
Because the greatest gold lies in peering into the dark corners, in confronting your fears and in neutralising your triggers.
In this video, I’m sharing a story of The Bothy Adventure, and how I'm confronting my fears.
The Origin Story Paradigm & Lessons from the Mountain
If you’re in need of some inspiration today, this one is for you.
If you’d like to be braver in your business, this one is for you.
If you’re sick of going around and around in circles, and you’re feeling frustrated and stuck, this one is for you.
I’ve just come back from the Rewilding retreat in the Lake District with the most incredible group of women.
All of them have both experienced and busted through their Origin Story Paradigm, and I want to capture it for you while it’s still fresh – because there’s a lesson in there for you too.
Enjoy the conversation, and don’t forget to give me a follow so you never miss an episode.

7 ways to make sure changes stick permanently
Are you struggling to make your new habits stick?
Or doubting your ability to make your positive changes permanent?
If you are, it’s no surprise because the odds are stacked against you. The very way society is set up is designed to set you up to fail.

This is why the Troubleshoot & Transform model I teach is so impactful – it just blows my clients’ minds wide open, and put them in the driving seat of positive changes they want to make.

Reflections on November – how am I still sane?
This has probably been one of the busiest months of my life, and I’d love to share some reflections with you.
• Living my values with my kids and husband
• Beating my Imposter and winning an award
• Finally achieving the no.1 reason I set up in business in the first place

Winning an award vs Imposter Syndrome ➡️ A hot off-the-press case study
Have you ever been nominated for an award? If you have Imposter Syndrome as well, this is the ultimate stress test for IS.
I’ve helped so many clients over the years get over the Imposter Syndrome about being nominated for awards, and be able to properly celebrate and bask when they win, or deal with the upcoming stuff when they lose.
Well, last night it was my turn and this is the perfect case study for what I want to talk to you about today.
During this conversation I make an invitation to join for the Imposter Epiphany, a free coaching series I'm running next week (20th-24th)

Wondering when all this graft, and faith and patience and grit will come good, and you'll reap the rewards.
I want to you to hear today, you CAN change your circumstances, you can have your dream life and you absolutely should not give up and settle for 'good enough'.
In this conversation I discuss 3 ways you can work with me in November:

It's World Values Day and anybody who knows me knows I bang on about values at every opportunity.
Let’s talk about values, and why you these need to be your no. 1 focus if you are a business owner.
This conversation is for you if:
• You are feeling overwhelmed
• You can’t see the wood for the trees – no clarity
• Struggling with Imposter Syndrome
• You’re procrastinating – know what you need to do, can’t seem to make yourself do it
• You’re wondering ‘am I a proper director’
• You want to build a company with integrity
In this conversation I want to share some case studies, and I also want to share a personal story – what happens when you don’t live your values, and a hopefully inspiring tale of what happens when you do.

One of the biggest problems women come to me with is overwhelm.
Female entrepreneurs still feel a massive pressure to be Superwoman, to hold all the things, to juggle a million balls and to prove they can have it all.
And the truth us, most of the time they're smashing it.
But just sometimes, this can tip into overwhelm.
Into a to-do list of competing priorities, all urgent.
Into the final straw that breaks the camel's back, and makes them feel like just giving up.
Into procrastination, and wasting time on low-value tasks.
In today's conversation, I'm going to teach you how to take back CONTROL of your day.
And how to let go of the STUFF that's filling your head, so you stop wasting your time, talents and energy.

Overwhelmed and frustrated This coaching model will help
Are you just planning on getting through October? Watch this
"I just want to get through it"
"I'm planning on surviving it"
How do you feel about October?
I've had the above comments a few times this week and so wanted to address them.
Often when we're overwhelmed and getting stuck in the weeds, we lose sight of the big dream and just concentrate on the day to day.
This is a huge problem, because you end of having about 10% of the impact you could be having, and end up feeling rubbish and lost.
OR you might be doing incredible things - they're ALL high value and high stakes - but you're so stretched and desperate to get it right - you're not enjoying and celebrating your success.
So what can you do about it? Today I'm going to share one of my favourite coaching models - the Aligned Impact Pyramid.
It's going to change your life - enjoy.

Fear of 'Derek' is one of the biggest blockers I see to women creating the business they dream of.
It stops them saying what they really want to say, and sharing what they really want to share.
It makes them tone down their voice, apologise for their opinion and find excuses not to press 'post' or do that video.
It’s that fear that Derek is going to show up and troll them.
This makes me so mad, and so let's talk about it.
And in this conversation I make an invitation to come join me for my upcoming coaching series.

Are you letting Derek ruin your business?
The robot dance off & the worst stage fright ever
Last night I had a flashback to this time last year, where I was faced with one of the most panic-inducing, stage fright triggering, all-the-visibility-fears situations.
It was one of those moments you remember forever, and is quite a funny story. If you've got 5 minutes and a brew, let me tell you the tale...

August is a funny month - the perfect storm of wanting to make magical moments with the kids, trying to fit work into too few hours, nobody’s around so things are going slower and not enough time to keep yourself sane.
And so your thoughts turn to September, and looking towards the final quarter of the year:
- How am I going to have a big finish?
- How can I smash my financial and business goals?
- What shall I do to focus my efforts and exceed all expectations?
- Plus lose the half a stone I put on during the holidays?
This conversation is all about the ONE thing you should be focusing on in your business in September.
This one thing is Authentic Visibility.
This is what I know is true. When I focus my attention on getting authentically visible – to showing up, to being brave and finding my voice, to unapologetically be me, to taking big, bold aligned action – then magic happens in my business.
I’m not joking.
Every single time I do this, things unfold, opportunities appear, I have the most wonderful inspired ideas – and I make quantum leaps forward and have the most incredible breakthroughs in my business.
I want to share with you 10 compelling reasons why you need to make authentic visibility your primary focus in September.
In this conversation I invite you to register for my upcoming Visibility Challenge - a free 5 day coaching series for female entrepreneurs.

Can we talk about the wobbles when running a business?
Can we talk about the wobbles?
They're part of the price of doing business, and every entrepreneur has self-doubts and moments where they think they're not cut out for this.
Moments where you feel frustrated that you're not as successful (wealthy) as you'd like to be, and you're so tempted to give up and get a JOB.
Conventional wisdom says to fake it until you make it, and push on through.
I wholeheartedly DISAGREE with this, and in this conversation I'm going to tell you why.
And of course what to do instead.
Enjoy the conversation and don't forget to let me know what you think.

How to figure out your mission and purpose... (and what to do if you don’t feel worthy of that)
I'm fresh back from adventuring in the Lake District in my camper van, and full of renewed vigour for my mission and purpose.
In this conversation I'm going to share with you exactly how I come up with my personal mission for my business - including the exact questioning sequence.

Are you self-sabotaging?
Today I’d like to open up the topic of self-sabotage.
In its most basic terms, it’s when you achieve some measure of success, and do something – either consciously, or more likely unconsciously in order to mess it up.
If you self-sabotage, you might say things like:
Why do I always mess things up?
Of course that wouldn’t last, it wasn’t the right time
I knew they’d made the wrong choice, picking me -
I knew I shouldn’t celebrate that thing, I’ve totally jinxed it
Today’s conversation is all about that self-sabotage – why we do it, what it might look like for you, and some real life case studies from clients.
And most importantly - what you can do about it so it no longer needs to stop you, mess up your achievements or even slow you down.
So you can get that peace you’re after, and be able to relax and celebrate all the cool stuff you’ve done.
Enjoy, and don’t forget to let me know what you think!
