    Ep 626: Making Time To Do Nothing + See No One

    13/09/2026 | 42 mins.
    If you constantly rebel against your plans or just wish you could finally get a proper break from the demands of your life, this episode is for you.
    I'm sharing the concept of Do Nothing See No One Time including why I created it, the value of regular pressure-free time during your waking hours and how it will help you to follow through with your business plans. 
    I also share lots of ways this can look, including if you're in a very demanding season of your life where it's incredibly hard to get any time to yourself. And I give you a bunch of different ideas for how to get some Do Nothing See No One time in your calendar - and actually follow through on it.

    Ep 625: Shifting From Perfectionist Thinking To Powerful Thinking

    06/09/2026 | 52 mins.
    If you know what to do to build your business but you can't get yourself to follow through on it, you've got to shift from Perfectionist Thinking to Powerful Thinking. When you think powerfully, you are able to complete what matters most for your business without procrastinating, overcomplicating or overthinking.
    In this episode I'm sharing examples of Powerful Thinking that have helped me and my clients build successful and fulfilling businesses. I also share why you don't need to think 'positively' in order to think powerfully, why Power Planning makes it easier to shift your thinking and what to do when your brain offers you a perfectionist thought instead of a powerful one.
