What happens when you turn your own struggle into a solution for thousands?
In this powerful episode, I sit with Alejandra “Ale” Angeles, the inspiring founder of Gals in Australia, about building a values-led community, navigating professional barriers as a migrant woman, and launching a sold-out summit with 500 attendees—all while holding down a full-time job.

This conversation is a masterclass in doing it scared, building with heart, and redefining success on your terms.

Have you ever looked at a confident woman and thought...
“How does she do it?”
“Why does it come so easily for her — and not for me?”

Here’s what no one tells you:
Confidence isn’t something you start with.
It’s something you build — one act of self-trust at a time. 

And I had to learn that the hard way.

For years, I tied my confidence to things outside of me — relationships, job titles, other people’s opinions. But the truth? I didn’t need to be more confident.
I needed to start trusting myself.

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of how I stopped outsourcing my safety — first in love, and now in business. I share the moment that cracked something open for me, how I rebuilt trust from the inside out, and the five steps I still come back to whenever self-doubt creeps in.

Chapters:

00:00     Why confidence doesn’t come first — and what we were never told about building it.

02:28     Self-Trust Over Confidence and Stop Outsourcing Your Safety

11:30     The Conversation That Changed My Life

13:51     Becoming the Woman You Keep Dreaming About

16:20     5 Steps to Rebuild Self-Trust (and Grow Your Confidence)

25:52     How to Plan With Real-Life in Mind (Not Hustle Culture)

33:04     Navigating Friendship Breakdowns as You Grow

37:28     How to Handle the “You’ve Changed” Comments

If you’ve been waiting to feel ready — to launch, to speak up, to show up — let this episode be your reminder:

You’re already her. You just need to start acting like it.

💌 DM me after the episode — I’d love to hear the one promise you’re making to yourself this week.

Feeling like your voice has gone quiet?
Not because you don’t have anything to say…
But because somewhere along the way, you were told you had to be perfect to be seen.

This guided meditation is for the woman who’s ready to release that pressure.

🌿 Whether you're building a business, raising a family, or finding your voice again after a season of silence — this is your sacred pause.
 Not to perform.
 Not to prove.
 But to simply return to yourself.

💛 Why I created this
As I grew my business through motherhood, I realised that visibility isn’t about doing more — it’s about being more of who you truly are.
And yet, so many of us still hold back.
Because we were once told we were too loud.
Too much.
Too emotional.

This meditation is a counter to that narrative.

🎧 Listen with this intention:
To pause.
To feel.
To return to the voice that’s always been there — just waiting for your trust.

Save this for the days when your voice feels shaky.
 And share it with a friend who’s ready to stop hiding.

What if the very thing you were told to keep quiet about… is the story that sets someone else free? In this episode of the Legacy Building Mamas Podcast, I sit down with Cat Dunn — award-winning OBM, mentor, speaker, and host of Life After I Left. Cat shares how starting her business while in an abusive relationship became the lifeline that reconnected her to the world — and ultimately, to herself.

Now a powerful voice for women reclaiming their worth, Cat helps others rise from silence — whether it's domestic violence, generational conditioning, or outdated business expectations. This conversation goes beyond business — it’s about truth, liberation, and remembering who you are beneath everything you were told to be. If you’ve ever felt stuck, unseen, or unsure of your next step — this one’s for you.

What if hitting rock bottom was the moment you finally found clarity?
That’s what happened to Sophia Salmon — after a mental health crisis forced her to walk away from a high-level corporate career, she rebuilt her life and business from the ground up.

But this isn’t just a comeback story. It’s a call to every woman who’s ever thought:
✨ “I can’t do this anymore.”
✨ “Something has to change.”
✨ “There must be a better way to live and work.”

In this episode, Sophia shares the raw truth behind burnout, the toxic hustle culture in corporate life, and how she chose freedom, alignment, and mental sustainability instead.

If you’ve ever felt like you're suffocating in a life that looks successful on the outside but feels anything but — this conversation will land.

💔 Why This Episode Matters:

So many women leave corporate not because they’re not ambitious — but because the system wasn’t built with us in mind. From being sidelined after maternity leave, to navigating mental health alone, to constantly proving our worth… it’s exhausting.

Sophia’s story is one of reclaiming her voice, redefining her values, and saying: “There has to be another way.” And she’s built it.

⏱ Episode Chapters:
00:00How Sophia and I met, and why her story needed to be told.

03:00The moment everything changed: Sophia’s mental health turning point.

08:00 Using corporate experience to build a purpose-led business.

10:30Helping women see their worth and potential

13:00 The true ROI: Why confidence matters more than KPIs

18:00 Redefining your ideal client and giving yourself permission to pivot

22:00 Connection over perfection: How Sophia finds aligned clients

30:00 How she protects her energy, prioritizes recovery, and defines sustainable success

Feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure where you're headed? This meditation is for you—the busy mum who’s giving her all but craving space to reconnect, slow down, and visualise a life that feels more aligned and less rushed.

Whether you’re juggling motherhood, building a business, or simply feeling the pressure of always being “on,” this calming visualisation meditation will help you pause, breathe, and see the woman you’re becoming.

When I left my corporate job and started building my own path, I realised how powerful it is to stop and visualise the life I actually want—not the one others expect.

This practice of connecting with my calm, future self helped me stay grounded while growing two businesses during motherhood. I hope this meditation does the same for you: gives you clarity, confidence, and space to remember who you are.

✨ What You’ll Experience:

• A peaceful visualisation to help you reset and reimagine your future
• A guided journey to calm your nervous system and clear mental clutter
• Affirmations that ground self-trust, confidence, and self-worth
• A moment to reconnect with the version of you you’re growing into
