✨ Abundance. Alignment. Action.
It’s time to live more and earn more - with ease.
I used to wake up with this pit in
my stomach and I'd check my phone,
I'd be worrying about money, and I'd
wonder why everything was so hard,
why my business wasn't flowing when
I was working like crazy hours.
But something changed and it wasn't the
algorithm, it wasn't a new sales funnel.
It was me and the way that I showed
up and my power and my presence.
I rewired my mindset and I created
everything from a place of flow
and abundance rather than fear.
Today I'm sharing how I shifted everything
from scarcity to abundance and how when
I started to unlock that belief in me,
then everything became more possible.
Just before the pandemic, if we go
back to 2019, I was doing lots of
joint ventures with other businesses
and I was helping them and really
working inside their business to,
um, to build courses and funnels and
create a whole new revenue stream.
And I was doing this
for big magazine brands.
Um, whether it was, you know, psychologies
or men's health, I was also, um,
doing this with big influencers.
And so these kind of different
organizations, brands
were much bigger than me.
And so I was like a little
minnow doing my thing.
Um, and, but I was, I was making waves
and creating this revenue for them.
But it meant that I was
putting all my energy into
them and I forgot about myself.
Um, not only my own
brand, but my own energy.
And I started to feel
more and more depleted.
And when the pandemic hit, I got COVID
really early on and I was then having
to homeschool my son and try and juggle
all the, all of these other brands and.
Also my own brand, and I just felt pulled
in so many directions and completely
depleted, like I didn't wanna be, I
felt like I was on this sort of hamster
wheel of creation and doing all these
things for other people, and I wasn't
really taking control of my life and
my own energy and what I really wanted.
And it was only when I got sick that it
forced me to press pause and stop and
reflect about what I actually wanted.
And I realized that I was chasing somebody
else's dreams and I was chasing somebody
else's desires rather than my own.
And so it was at that point that I
really re-evaluate everything in my life.
And I basically blew up my life.
I left my marriage, I left, um,
you know, a, a really sort of.
Very profitable property business.
Um, and I walked away from
everything and that was really hard.
And I have to say that was 20, 20 and five
years later, I'm still rebuilding my life.
So it's not been easy.
But what I can say is that.
I have been on this amazing journey,
and if I look back then to now,
I feel so much stronger and more
powerful than I ever did then.
And one of the key things for me was I
realized that I was in chasing somebody
else's dreams and somebody else's desires
that I wasn't listening to my soul.
And when you stop.
And you start listening to what
your soul wants, what you really
want, and it's about quieting
the noise and just going within.
When you step into your flow, you
step into your abundance and it's
so much easier to take on that flow
and that abundance than when you are
pushing and striving and hustling and.
Before I was, I was, you know, things
were good, I was successful, I was, I
had all the trappings of a nice life, you
know, uh, um, million dollar, not million
dollar, million pound life in London.
And, um, things were great, but,
and there's a big, but I was
living somebody else's life and.
It was kind of a gilded cage.
And so when you step into your own
flow, listen to what you are meant
to do, and you become more soul
aligned in your business, things flow
and it's a, it's a different flow.
It's a softer, gentler flow.
And I think I stepped out of my sort
of alpha pushing energy and into flow.
But when you embrace the
flow, life becomes better.
It's so much better.
And you know, if you are ready to
stop pushing and stop hustling and
feeling like you are working so
hard, then it's time to press pause.
And when you press pause,
everything can open up for you.
And that's when I made a
decision to stop chasing.
And start aligning.
And when I was much more in my
presence, being who I was meant
to be, the dots started aligning.
Things began to flow and come.
People would come to me,
opportunities would come to me.
And it was in those opportunities that
other opportunities began to snowball.
And so.
If you are feeling right now that
things are about pushing and hustling,
then it's time to quieten the noise
and go within, and you don't need
another coach telling you what to do.
You don't need another guru or expert
or stylist or whatever it may be.
You need to listen to your own voice
and when you start going within.
Yes, all of those things can
really help you on your journey.
But so often we feel like we have to
sort of listen to the experts when
actually our greatest expert is us, that
internal voice, our internal GPS, and
I'm forever grateful to all the coaches
I've worked with along the way, but.
The best piece of wisdom that I've
ever allowed myself to do was by using
reiki and by learning to listen to
my intuition and my internal voices.
And so, you know, whereas before I'd
spend like $50,000 on a mastermind,
I've realized that I am more
productive and more in flow when
I have a weekly reiki session and.
The cost is considerably less, but the
outcome is so much greater because I
am really stepping into my abundance,
the person that I'm meant to be,
rather than trying to be a sort of
cookie cut cutter approach of somebody
else's system that worked for them.
And so before you embrace any kind of
coaching, any kind of like gurus, whatever
they may be, listen to that voice within.
Because if you are stepping into
your flow and you are in your power,
then you absorb their wisdom in
a way that is aligned and means.
It's the right thing for you, rather
than trying to just do everything and
sort of being like a sort of pinball
where you are scattering from one thing
to the next thing without actually
being in flow and listening to what
is right for you and your business and
your dreams and your possibilities.
I remember I, I spent an awful lot of
money to work with a coach who, um.
Let's just say she had a technique of
wanting to launch six times a year.
And while it may have worked for
her, and that's great, it worked
for her, but actually it was the
totally wrong thing to do for me.
I had a young child, um, he's
autistic and I. Needed to just step
back and focus on him and find a
softer, quieter way of launching.
And so it was only when I pulled back
and went within, I realized I still
wanna launch, but I don't wanna do
it like everyone else is doing it.
So I just, I really sort of
rather reined it in, in a kind
of pushing alpha way I just said.
Right.
What feels good, and I do automatic
writing, which is kind of where you,
so I'll do a meditation every morning
and then I write in my journal.
And in doing that, I sort of
get these downloads of guidance.
It's so powerful and.
In that I sometimes have like,
you know, whatever going on within
my personal life, but also in
my business it really helps me.
I get this sort of massive downloads
of inspiration for new ideas,
new courses, new opportunities.
And so from that developed a
different way of, of launching,
which is just so much simpler and.
That only came about because I stepped
into my flow rather than pushing and
hustling and trying to make things work.
Even when the, the red flags and
the voices were screaming at me to
stop and get off the hamster wheel.
And if that's you right now, I am giving
you permission to press pause, press
pause on your life and figure out.
What works for you, what is right
for you and what feels good for you.
And when you embrace that moment
of what feels good, everything
else will flow from that.
And it becomes so, so much easier.
And I definitely have felt like.
Exhausted and drained.
But when I am in this place of flow,
it's so much easier and it means
that I am not working crazy hours.
I'm not do trying to do all the things.
I'm doing what's right for
me and my body and my son.
And in doing this,
opportunities flowed to me.
Clients flowed to me
and the world opened up.
So it became just a, a nicer experience.
So if you are feeling like you are
just pushing and hustling right now,
allow yourself the space to press pause
and listen to that voice within
and.
Allow yourself the time to reconnect
with you and your intuition.
Rather than being busy for busy's
sake, you are instead being more
aligned with your intuition.
So you are not just spinning your wheels,
you are thinking that you are like,
yes, I'm doing it and I'm going for it
in that kind of alpha energy instead.
You are making slower, more conscious
decisions, which are more deliberate,
more aligned, and it's less effort, and
it's as much, much nicer place to be,
but it's also infinitely more successful.
So I find now.
I have a much better return on investment
of the things that I do because I
stop and I pause and I figure out, is
this really what I want to do, rather
than rushing off into something.
And I also find in being
more deliberate, more
just in being, allowing myself that space
that I'm not trying to do everything.
And I sort of stepped out of the
game, stepped out of the sort of
alpha energy, and it means that
my business is more profitable.
Because I'm not trying to do
all the things I'm looking
at like, is this working?
And I'll back it up.
I'll use my intuition, I'll back it up
with some data of like, is this working?
What's working?
What's not working?
And so I will look at that, but
it's definitely led by intuition
rather than feeling like I
need to do 10 million things.
So it's flow rather than
obligation, and it is quieter.
It is that just softer, gentler flow.
So three things that I
want you to remember.
Number one is about rewiring your story.
You don't have to be on it and hustling
and doing and shifting and pushing.
You can take a step back and
it's okay to take a step back.
Secondly, allow yourself the space
for meditation, for journaling,
for going for a walk or a run.
I often will, I'll go for a run every
morning, and in that time I will be
doing meditations also on my runs.
I will stop.
I usually stop.
I live in the countryside,
and I will stop on a like.
Stone wall.
I'll sit on a stone wall
and I will do a meditation.
I also practice my gratitude practice,
so I do 10 things I'm grateful for
every day, and I'll say those out loud,
loud into my phone while I'm running.
So I'm seeing, you know,
beautiful fields and flowers.
I'm hearing the bird song,
and I'm feeling such gratitude
for those things as well as.
The wonderful clean air that I breathe,
or, um, my son or my boyfriend,
or the life that I've created.
And so I'm enjoying the
small things of life.
And when you stop to enjoy the
small things of life, that that
moment of gratitude, then actually
abundance comes to you because you
are appreciating everything in your
life rather than pushing and hustling.
Trust and surrender is such
a big part of this process.
When you trust that the universe is
gonna open up for you and possibilities
and abundance are gonna flow your way.
When you stop feeling like you need
to push and worry and strive, and you
just surrender to it and allow and
know that good things are coming your
way, opportunities open up for you.
And I found that what, the more that
I sort of take my foot off the gas
and I step back and I just trust, the
better that things open up for me.
And when I'm worrying and I'm spiraling,
which sometimes I do, that's when
things get more and more, you know,
spiraled and worried and fretful.
But when I step back and
I allow, and I think.
Amazing things are coming my way.
I know that the universe has these
amazing opportunities for me.
That's when everything opens up, and so
if you are feeling worried and anxious
right now, allow that space so that you
can trust that good things and amazing
opportunities are coming your way.
Just imagine if in a year's time.
What would be possible for you if
you started looking at your life and
having that vision of this is what
I want to create in the next year.
I've been doing, I love, it's
a Paul McKenna, um, uh, it's,
um, abundance meditation.
It's his book, um, power Manifest.
And it's a three minute meditation, so
it's not long, but it basically, you,
you have this vision of your life on
the big screen of how you want to be.
And so you have this vision of what
your life is gonna look like in a year's
time, and then you count it back in.
Chunks of three months.
So three months, then
another three months.
Three months.
And so for me, I've got so much
going on in my life with, um,
I'm going through a divorce.
I'm, um, you know, wanting to move house.
I, um, I'm trying to get my son
into, um, an a. A school for his,
you know, next stage of life.
And all of those things are,
they're all happening right now,
and so there's so much going on.
But when I visualize him and his school
uniform, us in our new house and the kind
of life that I want to create, the kind
of business that I want to have suddenly.
If you then have that vision, but
you then also create those markers of
like, oh, this is what I'm doing to get
there in th in nine months time, in six
months time, in three months time, it
suddenly becomes more possible and it
really, really has helped me so much.
