Is the weight of the world on your shoulders?
Do you ever feel like you've got the weight of the world on your shoulders?
Feel like you are always the strong one holding it together for all around you?
I see this most days in my coaching practice. Talented business owners, putting themselves under huge pressure and just barely holding it together.
Fake It No More: A Deep Dive into Imposter Thoughts
The most successful leaders aren't just skilled at business strategy or operations. They skillfully manage their inner landscape - mastering emotions, managing mindsets and energising attitudes.
Make no mistake - this inner work is hard. But it unlocks exponential impact when done with courage and commitment.
Have you heard of “somatic therapy”?
As leaders, our judgment and ability to take action in pivotal moments shapes the trajectory of our companies. A hair-trigger stress response can lead to impulsive decisions we later question or even regret.
Are you a self-sabotager?
"I don't deserve to be highly successful. If I achieve big goals and dreams, something bad will happen."
Can you relate even a little bit? This fear manifesting as procrastination was robbing Lucy of happiness and potential rewards for her talents.
Do you sometimes question if you really deserve success in your business?
Do you sometimes question if you really deserve success in your business? When you accomplish something great, does that little inner voice say it was just luck or timing?
Many entrepreneurs and small business owners struggle with low self-worth and not feeling "good enough" despite working incredibly hard. The problem is this:
Do you struggle with managing difficult business conversations?
Many successful entrepreneurs and business leaders have brilliant ideas and make outstanding contributions - but have difficulty articulating their value during tense discussions. They may also dwell on negative feedback while struggling to internally recognise their own strengths.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.

3 Signs It’s Time To Regain Control Of Your Business
If you feel chronically behind, dread Mondays, or can’t even remember the last time you took a holiday without working, those are big red flags.
Here are 3 other key signs it’s time to regain control of your business before it fully hijacks your life:
Do You Feel Like Your Business Controls You?
When you first started your business, you likely had a vision of being your own boss. No more long hours pleasing a relentless corporate overseer. Hello freedom and flexibility to work when and how you want!
But somewhere along the way, things changed.
What started as a passion project you couldn't wait to work on has turned into a taskmaster.
Uncovering Hidden Gems Through 1:1 Coaching
“I’m happy for about 5% of the time. I dread my endless to-do list every time I open my laptop now. I snap at my kids when they interrupt client calls. I pour so much energy solving other people’s’ problems that I collapse at the end of every day, too depleted to enjoy the rewards of my work. I took on debt and killed myself striving for this dream business. Now that I’m here - I realise the daily realities I created are crushing my soul.”
‘Just Get On With It …’
We’ve all gotten well-meaning advice at times that boil down to “just get on with it.” Just overcome your doubts and put yourself out there. Just stop procrastinating and sitting on the couch. Just ignore that inner voice telling you that you’re an imposter and push forward anyway.
While the intent behind this kind of advice may be good, the problem is it can trivialise very real barriers that hold many people back. Telling someone to force themselves to do something despite paralysing self-doubt or intense anxiety often has the opposite effect - it reinforces those feelings of shame and worthlessness.
Set Boundaries Before Reaching Breaking Point
It took reaching my own breaking point to realise I still bought into toxic hustle culture lies: needing to say yes to everything to prove my worth and value.It wasn’t a skill problem but a mindset problem rooted in my fear of disappointing others and sending the (false) signal that I don’t care enough about my business by – gasp – having a life.
Is Imposter Syndrome Driving Your Burnout?
Burnout has become an epidemic problem in workplaces across all industries. In fact I would say that probably most of my clients last week alone said they were feeling burnt out.
If you're one of the countless professionals battling chronic exhaustion and diminished engagement, it's important to examine the roots behind your relentless work habits.
The Value In Identifying Your Personal Values
Taking time to identify your personal values, and assessing whether your current priorities reflect them, is hugely impactful. Your values are those core principles and beliefs that serve as an internal compass guiding your decisions and behaviors. They speak to the very heart of who you are and what gives your life meaning.
Here are a few examples of personal values:
Integrity - Connection with others - Growth- Autonomy- Creativity
Why I Love Working With Business Owners & Successful Leaders
Despite decades of building an incredibly profitable company, my client was convinced "I don't deserve this...I'm not smart or creative enough to have achieved all this." She was plagued by the overwhelmingly stressful belief that her success could crumble at any moment.
Business Owners: It’s Time We Got Real
Ripping off the fake entrepreneur masks portraying polish is long overdue. Getting real and asking for help is where the magic awaits.
As a coach who’s lived many entrepreneurial lives myself, and worked with hundreds of small business owners, I know there's always a way forward, no matter how stuck you feel.
My mission is guiding business leaders to embrace and learn from challenges so they can unlock sustainable success that is true and authentic to themselves.
