This podcast is filled with strategy, the teachings of flow state and proven tactics to help you think about entrepreneurship as a way of being, not just a way of doing. Infused with teaching from my 8 signature phases to get to six figures in flow, we’ll dive deep into an alchemy of topics including mindset, online business strategy, wealth creation and so much more!

The solo episodes will leave you feeling ready to take inspired action, create your own flow state in business and become even more empowered to live your most authentic and abundant life. A little more about me…A few years ago I decided that I had to scratch the entrepreneurial itch. I quit my job as a tech start-up recruiter and went all in as an online coach. Along with my hubby, we created a global coaching brand, travelled the world as digital nomads with our two kids and in 3 years, grew a multi-million dollar business. It took a lot of trial and error, trying out new strategies and of course daily discipline to get this far so quickly. But after some time, the hustle got tiring. I was frustrated with my lack of progress, feeling caged by my own limiting beliefs. I didn’t want to just create another J-O-B, I desired to experience freedom.
In search of freedom, I turned to the inner work and found modalities like astrology, hypnotherapy, meditation and journaling to find ME again. I discovered ways to re-shape my reality and unlock my hidden strengths - as I became my true, unapologetic self, I rapidly grew my business to 7 figures with ease. Now I incorporate these teachings into my coaching philosophy. I blend energetics with proven business principles to create massive growth for my clients. I’m a top-rated Forbes business coach and LOVE every single day in my business and life. Ready to dive in? Then start bingeing!

Hello. Hello, my loves welcome back to a new episode. I'm feeling so refreshed. I've just gone for a lovely beach walk. Now it's still winter here in Australia, but I do live in a part of Australia where the coldest it gets during winter is like 20 degrees. So I, and that's Celsius. So. I really can't complain, but I have a bit of frosty feelings, you know, like on my legs and on my skin, and it's just revitalizing.
Kind of like I've been in a cold shower or something. So I feel so good to be here. And I want to talk about something that I really don't hear enough people in the business space talk about, and that is what to do when your money feels jammed. Now, I'm not talking about a slow month here and there, or a slow, like a dip in sales here and there.
I mean, those seasons where you are doing all of the work, you are showing up completely. You are delivering on your own promises. You are, you know, doing all the things with social media. You are reaching out to clients, you are emailing your list, you are getting to networking events, and yet money just isn't moving the way it usually does Now.
It's not just that nothing's coming in. Sometimes it's that everything that does come in seems to also just go straight back out. You know, there's expenses and. You've been in a season that you know, it's not just about the money itself, but it's about how you feel about the safety of your money. And maybe you've had a nest egg, you've built up some savings, you've got things in your retirement accounts, et cetera, and now those amounts are either dipping below your comfort zone or your standard.
Your expectations around it just has not been met, and that also contributes to you feeling as though money is jammed. So. This is the part that I really wanna talk about with the business owner lens. And I wanna say upfront, I've definitely been here. I'm gonna share some of my personal stories. A lot of my clients are feeling this, and it's really like when I hear what others are going through, I really empathize like I really, really do.
And I know what it's like to be in that position. I've had a really abundant year, but I do wanna take this conversation into a place where it's almost like what I would do if I felt like money was being jammed. Being in an abundance state. Do you know what I mean? Like I often try and reach to a version of me who is doing really well, who's just kicking goals.
Like what would she say? What would she do? So let this podcast episode be that version of you if you can't get yourself out of the funk. Okay, so let's start here. About 10 months ago, I actually had a season like this. It's crazy to think like that was less than a year ago. But everything in my world just really felt off.
It felt really off in my business. I didn't have the right team on board. I could feel it in my gut. Like every project felt like I was literally pushing shit uphill. And I just, when I thought I had the shit organized, it was like bam, straight back on me. Like such a gross analogy. But that's how it felt.
And in my personal life, you know, I was living in a house that I had bought off the plan. We had built it. We'd lived there for a year and a half, and then. Over the last like few months of being there. I had completely felt like I had outgrown the space. I didn't really enjoy living on the street we were on.
I didn't really enjoy our neighbors, you know, I just felt like that was off. And then also on the personal life front, I was definitely feeling as though I was shedding friendships that I thought would be there forever. I've actually recorded a whole episode on friendships that you guys loved and just the whole like vibe of the last six months of 2024.
Was meh, you know, financially. I will also say this, I've always really operated from a place of like a high baseline. I've held a high standard for myself ever since I was 23. I purchased my first property. I've been really all about building wealth, making sure that I have a good nest egg, so I'm not that gal that's living paycheck to paycheck.
I'm not that gal that is literally at zero in my bank account. I have. A very high baseline. I have managed funds. I come from a finance background. I love a good strong property portfolio, so I've built a really strong standard for myself over the years. And then when I met my husband, I thought I was good with all of that stuff and he was like 10 x better.
So then obviously once we joined our finances. We are really grateful for that. But in a season where things feel like they're jammed or going backwards, it doesn't matter really what you already have. You could still be feeling very tested with how safe your baseline feels like. Especially as we age, as we get older, we're like, Hey, maybe we should be having like a bigger nest egg.
Maybe we should be more careful with our budgeting and our finances. Maybe we should be more aware around what we're spending on and what we value. And you know, there was a season there where I was like going to Louis Vuitton every other month and buying Gucci bags and you know, buying the Mercedes, buying the BMW and loving that season of extravagance.
But then, you know, like five years on, I'm just like, I dunno if I really value a lot of those things anymore. Don't get me wrong, still love my cars. Definitely. But you know, there's just, I don't have a desire to buy anything designer anymore and that's just kind of maybe a season that I'm going through and instead I really felt this desire to top up all of my accounts and really nest egging and building this place where it felt like I was really good in a cash position and really good in terms of long-term wealth and savings.
Right. But then there was this moment that really, really drove it home, like a family member actually needed some help financially. And normally I would sit down with them and I'd ask them like a whole bunch of questions for myself. And they always say like, if you're lending money to family, it's not a loan.
You're giving it to them. So maybe that's something that I was ingrained with when I was younger, but you know, something that I'd normally really say yes to and. Honestly, just send the money without even thinking twice. For the first time last year, I paused and I thought, and this was purely from a fear-based place, if I were to give them this money, and it was multiple five figures, I'll have.
Quotes, nothing left in my safety net, like this was my personal account, not me and Michael's, not the family accounts. This was my personal savings accounts. And that just hit me really hard because this isn't why I wanted to build the financial abundance that I have today. Like I wanted to create this so I could give freely that I could give back.
I could feel safe doing it. I dunno if many of you can relate to this, but do you know how a lot of business owners will say. You know, build a business, get to the point where you feel financially safe, then you can give back, you can give back to the world, you can give back to charities. I'm sorry if this sounds maybe a little bit, I don't know what's the word, like trite or, I, I don't know what the word is.
I can't think of it right now, but I just don't believe in charities. I, I've not found one that. I feel like I can fully give to and believe in. But how I connect to that notion is giving back to family, giving back to even a local community I can get behind that I can get behind giving back to the local, you know, sports clubs that I am a part of or that my family are a part of.
But you know, regardless of all of that, it really made me think, and in that moment I didn't feel safe at all giving to anything to anyone. I felt like I was gripping so tightly onto my own finances, and it was all of a sudden back to me, me, me, like I had to hold onto things tightly because not as much cash flow was coming in.
You know, the economy was doing funny things and that was really my big wake up call. It wasn't to push harder and not to hustle my way out of it in one sense, although the way that my business was set up was definitely set up for a lot of hard work, and that was demoralizing because also all the hard work that I was doing for the business, I was literally paying out to my team.
So I wasn't retaining anything. Everything was going out too. All different members of the team. It was going out to community management, it was going out to Facebook group management. It was going out to ads. It was going out to systems that I didn't even think we needed. Oh my gosh. It was a lot. But I sat down with myself and I realized everything felt like a gem, whatever corner I was turning to, like earning more money.
Well that was just going out and saving more and that just wasn't happening. And. Thinking to myself, okay, like, how can I rise up from this? 'cause I don't like this space. I realize that I cannot earn from a place of feeling like nothing. I cannot earn from a place of feeling like I am literally in a traffic jam.
You have to get yourself back to a place. Where you feel something, even just a little bit of financial freedom and abundance, a little bit of room because you can work with that. If you can get a little bit of thread going around that, I promise you, you can go a long, long way. Neville Goddard actually talks about assuming the state of the wish fulfilled.
This is also being popularized by saying something along the lines of living as if. So living as if the thing you want is already done, but when your money feels jammed, you are assuming the state of feeling financially jammed and it can feel wildly impossible to just jump into, I am now a millionaire energy.
I am now financially free energy. I can now give my family members all the money that they need to get out of their pickle. Your body just doesn't believe it. You are rejecting it in every single cell of your body, and your nervous system is also rejecting it. You don't feel safe around it. You feel as though it's even going to cause more anxiety by saying, I'm a millionaire.
So instead, what I did was I chose to strip it right back to the basics. This is your reminder. The smallest, most believable basic beliefs can change. Everything. And I started looking for evidence and I started churning them into I am statements, the most basic, believable I am now, statements that I could possibly back my energy with.
The ones where I knew that my body could actually get on board with it because it was no duh, like kind of. Yeah, absolutely true. I couldn't find any ounce of cynicism to add to these statements, so I'll share what they are. 'cause I've got my journal in front of me and I've got the very page that I. Had when I felt literally at my worst money jam moment.
So this is what it looks like. I am now breathing deeply and I can feel my lungs expand. Hmm. And this feels good because with every breath I take, I know it is a miracle, and I'm grateful for that miracle. Like, isn't that a miracle That. Our heartbeats automatically, our lungs breathe automatically. We don't need to think about blinking like this is what I mean about the basics of the basics.
I am now sipping my favorite cup of coffee from my favorite coffee shop on my sunli balcony, and this tastes incredible. This feels incredible, and I am in an absolute moment of peace and fulfillment. I'm now sitting in my office. I can create something really valuable just by typing words into a Google Doc, and I think that's amazing to be living in a time, a space, and a day where my earning is directly linked to my creativity and that creativity can earn exactly what I'm choosing to feel good with.
And at the time I was calling in. A $10,000 day, just like, oh, that feels really easy. Like I could score a client at 10 K is when I was selling high ticket. Now, don't base that number off my number. Yours could be a lot higher. Yours could be like 10 bucks. It doesn't matter. Like nowadays, I'm so happy with a $7 sale.
Woke up to a $7 sale. Actually, that was so nice. Went to bed to a $5 sale. That was actually also really nice. So it doesn't matter. Money's money, doesn't matter what the amount is. Okay. Yesterday I also had a $300 refund from my health fund, so that was also really nice. I didn't earn it. It was just unexpected money just dropping into my lap.
Another I am statement that I said was, I am now feeling so nice because I have put on my favorite lipstick and this makes me feel confident. This makes me feel pretty. This makes me feel like I can be on camera today, you know? So I want you to think about. Writing down some of these statements. The basics.
I am now statements for when you are feeling jammed. So go for it. Like think about. I am now opening up my laptop and I'm connecting with my audience. I am now listening to this podcast and it's rearranging my energy for the greatest good. I'm now able to write one email that could literally bring some money in.
I'm now grateful for the network that I have. I could reach out to one or two people today and ask them, do you know anybody who might need help? That's so amazing. I'm now the kind of person who keeps showing up. I'm gonna show up today, not just, even though I'm not feeling a hundred percent at my best, but I'm showing up for the future me.
They seem really simple, right? But that's the point. You start at a level where your mind and body can't actually argue with them, and from there, you can stack up some bigger truths. So that's just your baseline. The next step is to actually go into, and by the way, I'll say this is where most people go wrong.
You can go into a higher level of truth which edges you out to a place where it feels uncomfortable, and maybe even just like a teeny, tiny element of doubt. But you're not going all the way to, I'm now a millionaire, right? Like you are wanting to say something that you could get behind. There's been evidence that it's worked before.
There's evidence that you've lived that life before. Maybe you're calling in a version of you who was just really peaceful and all good with money and had a lot of money coming in, so you can back that. But where most people go wrong is that they say the words and they don't feel them. So if you want this to actually shift your money energetics, you have to also anchor it into your senses, right?
Like, I know it's easy to be like, oh, it's gotta connect to your subconscious. What does that mean? We can start with senses, engage your senses. So if you say, I am now sipping my favorite cup of coffee, actually take a sip of it and taste it and smell it. I can't tell you what it is about holding a takeaway.
Coffee cup environmentalists don't come for me. I'm just saying there's something about holding my favorite coffee cup takeaway from my favorite cafe and just feeling like yes. This feels so luxurious, and I think I know why. Actually, as I'm saying this, I was never allowed to go out and buy coffees or teas or waters.
Like my parents were like, that is a waste of money. Don't do that. So once I started earning and I could afford literally buying like $2 cup of coffee, a $5 cup of coffee, let's be real now they're like five. No. Now they're like eight to $10. It felt like an abundance move for me. So as I'm taking a taste of it and I'm smelling the aromas of the coffee.
I'm letting my body register the comfort and the enjoyment and the luxury of that. I am now sipping my favorite cup of coffee. Subconsciously represents I am now sipping on abundance. Another way to engage your senses is to move your body. So if you say, I am now healthy enough to work. I am now of the highest mental clarity.
I am now removing anxiety and plucking that out from my DNA and I'm choosing instead to operate from a place of full 100% soul led confidence. I want you to stand tall. If you can stand tall right now, do that. And I want you to roll your shoulders back. I want you to reach up to the sky, both hands. I've got that toy.
I'm doing that right now, and I've got my feet grounded. Bam, bam, on the floor. Power pose. Okay. And I'm just like, yes, I am now of highest mental clarity. I am ready to show up and do the work for the next 90 minute block. I'm ready for that. Okay. And other ways to use touch. So if you say, I am now wearing my favorite item of clothing, sometimes I do that.
I get really dressed up for no one but me. I'm sitting in my home office. But I'll just wear my favorite off the shoulder top and I'm touching it and it's so nice, like it feels silky and I can picture the top that I love, or it's like this mesh top that I love wearing as well. Always makes me feel super sexy.
I will literally be like, oh my gosh, I am in this mood where I feel like I'm about to go out for dinner, or I'm getting dressed up for a date night. There's something about that. So I'm touching this top going, yes, okay. I am about to go and drink some nice wine, eat fine foods, and in that energy I'm showing up in the truth of.
I am ready for really awesome, beautiful things to happen. I'm in a great mood. I am in a social mood. I am ready for indulgence. All right, there's something there. So you wanna see like these little micro proof moments, like, you know, using touch, using the power pose, smelling the aromas of the things that you are calling in, because this becomes the bridge.
Once those basics feel real. You can then stretch into the bigger ones to fully release the money jam. So then from this place, and it might take a couple of days to actually get here, it might take a couple of weeks. It doesn't matter about, the timelines are bullshit. You need to work off your own belief system.
It's just a construct of the world's timing. But you cannot rush a belief system change. You need to be patient with yourself, and you need to be graceful with yourself, but you can decide on the timing to be folded. You can decide for your nervous system to readjust to that of abundance by simply telling it.
Many times a day, I choose to fold the timeline around money being jammed. I choose to unjam myself. I choose to allow. A trickle of money flow to come in today, and then tomorrow it becomes bigger and bigger and bigger. So much so that by the end of the week there is a rush of money flow. And I fully believe that in my system.
And now you can say those big, big, you know, beliefs. I am now a business owner and a coach who consistently makes daily sales. I am now living in a home that I adore. I am now surrounded by the right people in my life and the best business friendships in my life. And again, ground that to a feeling. So every single one of us will have a friendship that we can ground to, that we just love and adore.
And whether you're still friends with 'em or not, I'm sure there are moments of time that you're like, we were really happy as friends then, and that's what I'm calling in. You can think about a time that you lived in a place, whether it was like a hotel or it was your childhood home. Yeah, I love that, that comfort, that element.
It felt like me. That's what I'm calling in. You can think about times when you were making like daily sales, or you were making money every day. If you were employed, any one of you that were employed by an employer, you were making daily sales, you were making daily money. So every one of us that's worked in some capacity for someone else.
In your career, in your day jobs, you can link to that. It's like, yeah, you would never show up to work and not get paid. You weren't a volunteer, so why would you be a freaking volunteer in your own business? And then this is where like you can hear it right in my voice. Like I just know those beliefs. So it's such a real way.
I get so fired up, it's so powerful. And then, and then I ground it into a ritual. Now the ritual isn't gonna be some kind of big spiritual ritual. Because when your money feels jammed, the last thing you wanna do is try and force spirituality over the top of it. You know, it, it won't land. It'll just feel like you're too in your head, you're too stressed out, your palms are sweaty.
Mom spaghetti had to go there. Sorry. Oh, anyhow. Um, the ritual is more so something like this, and this is still my exact go-to process, by the way. So I stop at like altogether, I will stop. Looking at the state of the business, and I know this sounds a little bit contradictory, but if you are someone, maybe you're kind of like me, where I'm just looking at the numbers and they feel like they're not moving, they feel like they're going down.
It feels like the numbers of the sales coming in is immediately washed out to, you know, the team costs and the tech costs, et cetera. I just stop checking the numbers for sometimes just 24 hours. I just need to step away from it. I need to get out of the lack loop. I need to just stop looking at everything that's not working.
Now, this isn't gonna be relevant to those of you who actually never check the numbers and you don't realize what your numbers actually are. You might have the opposite problem where you do need to check it, and then you might actually be nicely surprised that's happened to some of my clients before.
And then secondly, go and choose your three basic I am now statements that are undeniably true right now. I am now. Able to access the internet, open up my laptop and post something that can literally go out to thousands of people today. Okay, so use those. I'm now statements. Then I want you to use your body.
I want you to use your senses. I want you to say them out loud. I want you to feel them, and as soon as you feel that you can start stacking them with bigger truths that you feel ready to take on. I'm ready to get out of my money jam. I'm ready to unblock money flow. I am ready to fully believe that my money story gets to change right here.
Right now, and that might be a $5 sale, and I accept that and I receive that. That might be a refund from my health fund provider. I accept that and I receive that. That might be a few extra stamps on my coffee card, which means that in two coffees time I get a free $10 coffee. I accept that and I receive that.
And then I want you to move on with your day Feeling grounded Energy. Now guess what I'm doing right after this podcast episode. I'm gonna go for a reiki. Energy or a cleanse and a massage, and this is just part of my ritual. It's how I ground, it's actually a business expense. It's actually part of how I operate in really clear mental energy so that I can connect to my highest self, making the highest good decisions so that my money, energy is kept unjammed.
You know, like, it's like clearing out the drain and taking out all the hairs is so gross, right? But I've got really, really long hair and we need to do that a lot. So why aren't you doing that with your energy, right? If your money feels jammed right now, it's not because you're being punished, it's because you're being invited to play a bigger energetic game.
To expand your capacity and to feel wealthy and safe. Sometimes we are given these uncomfortable seasons, but I want you to know that this is a season for remembering. You already are somebody. You're someone who makes moves. You're someone who believes in your work so much, not just for you, but the way that it helps others.
You are someone who is a creator. You are someone who is here at this time. Such a miracle that we have life. You're someone who takes up space and you create space for others and their life. Start with what's true today. I really hope that this has helped you. Feel it. Now go and live it because the moment you become certain in your self and you become certain in your money and you become certain in your business and you feel a connection.
Money starts to feel connected to you. Money starts to feel certain about you as well. And when that happens, the jam always breaks. Okay. I love you so much. I hope that this has given you just all the inspiration that you needed. Go and check out the show notes now. I want you to go and have a look at some of the courses and some of the offers that I have, because I know that there'll be something there that you might need that's pulling you today into another state of action.
Thank you so much for being here. You guys, come on over to Instagram. Let me know what hit you the most today and what you're choosing to believe in the most today. Love you heaps and heaps, and I'll catch you in the next episode. Mm.
