Manifestbossbabe - Lead Yourself Loud

 When you miss a turn, your GPS doesn’t panic. It says “recalculating” and finds a new way. Life doesn’t always ask before it reroutes you, and sometimes the new route looks nothing like the destination you set. 

In this episode, I share the season when my divorce and losing my job hit at the same time. I tell you about the blank canvas my coach asked me to paint, why I couldn’t see my future, and what it felt like to pack my life into a storage unit, terrified of being homeless. I also share how asking for help got me approved for the townhouse I’d always wanted, and what I felt the day I got my keys. 

In this episode, I talk about: 

• The blank canvas exercise and why I couldn’t see my future while wearing a mask
• How the divorce and job loss rerouted me toward the very thing I wanted
• What kept me going when I was terrified: my girls, my grit, and my faith
• Why asking for help was the turning point, and how the job I lost put the right person in my path
• Why fear either keeps you frozen or you run right into it

Your challenge this week:
Face the fear. If you need to, ask for help. There’s no shame in it, and people who’ve been through it want to help because they learned the hard way. This too shall pass, so live with complete faith, because doubt will take over if you let it.

Let’s work on it together:
 

• Going through your own reroute and need support? Reach out to me @manifestbossbabe on Instagram or Facebook
• Ready to get clear on what you truly want? Book a clarity call with me!

When you type an address into your GPS, it never asks if you know every turn first. It just needs the destination. So why do we wait to chase our dreams until we can see the whole route?

In this episode, I share how I became a personal trainer without looking the part or feeling ready. A friend told me to be a walking billboard for what I do, so I got certified and started running boot camps for women.

In this episode, I talk about:

• Why your destination matters more than having the whole route mapped out
• How imposter syndrome showed up before my first boot camp, and why I showed up anyway
• How my destination stayed the same while my route went from fitness to mindset coaching
• Why you have to change your mind before you change your life

Your challenge this week:

Be honest with yourself about what you really want. You already know what it is, you're just scared to say it out loud. Write it down, create a vision board, and claim it. It was placed on your heart for a reason, and God wants you to have it.

Let's work on it together:

• Want ideas for creating your vision board? Reach out to me on Instagram or Facebook and I'll help you get started.
• Ready to get clear on what you truly want? Ask to book a call with me!

In this episode, I sit down with my Hyrox training partner, John Clark, for a raw and honest conversation about his journey — from years of struggling with addiction, to finding sobriety and rebuilding his life through fitness. John opens up about becoming a certified personal trainer, getting selected for the 2027 Saskatchewan Firefighters Calendar, and the body image and mental health challenges that come with putting yourself out there physically. We also talk training for Hyrox, our shared connection to Supplement King, and why John wants his story to prove that no matter what you're facing, you can do hard things.

What We Talk About

• How John and I met and became Hyrox training partners
• John's transformation story — the beginning of his fitness journey
• Becoming a certified personal trainer and nutritionist
• Being a firefighter, selection night, and getting picked for the 2027 Saskatchewan Firefighters Calendar
• Body image and the mental side of physical transformation
• Finding sobriety and what that process actually looked like
• Training for Hyrox and prepping for our first race together (Toronto, October 3rd)
• Being Supplement King ambassadors — John repping the Yorkton store, me repping Swift Current
• Personal growth, resilience, and John's mission to inspire others as an amputee
• The message John wants people to walk away with: you can do hard things — you just have to put your mind to it

John wants to thank his sponsors, Chris Cederstrand, Supplement King, Anytime Fitness & Sask Pro.

What happens when a woman looks in the mirror every day for 30 days and tells herself she's a sexy bitch — even on the days she doesn't believe it?

In this episode I break down the psychology of mirror talk, why confidence is a decision you repeat (not a feeling you wait for), and why showing up for yourself — hair, makeup, how you treat your body — isn't vanity, it's evidence.

Plus: how to run your own 30-day version starting tomorrow.

Hey babe — I've been MIA since February, and not because I disappeared on purpose. I went into a full-on funk, stopped doing the things that keep me grounded, and didn't even realize it until I sat down with my journal and asked myself what the hell was going on. 

Turns out? While I was busy feeling behind, I was actually out here living my manifestation list. I found stage speaking and brand-building written down in my manifestation journal — stuff I'd completely forgotten I wanted. And it happened anyway. 

In this episode I'm getting real about: 

• The 100-day Higher Up Wellness speaking challenge that taught me showing up matters more than being perfect (even when my face was swollen from an allergic reaction 😅)
• What it actually felt like walking on stage for the first time at the Women's empowerment event — terrified, but I did it anyway
• How Manifestbossbabe and FITFO (yep, that's a brand I've created that also was in my manifestation list) are expanding, and what's coming next
• How I manifested my Hyrox partner John — literally asked the universe to send someone to kick my ass in my health, and he slid into my DMs asking to be my Hyrox partner.
• The realization that when you're in the thick of it, you can't see how far you've come — and why you need to give yourself credit

This episode is your reminder to listen to those little voices inside you, write that sh*t down, stay aware of the opportunities around you, and actually take action. Manifestation only works if you do the work.

 
I got you, babe. Let's get into it.

In this episode I get real about the silent burnout that almost broke me and the exact 7 habits that brought me back to life.

We talk protecting rest like it’s your highest-paying client, saying no without the apology essay, moving gently, body check-ins, deleting energy leaks, celebrating tiny wins out loud, and the daily reflection that changed everything.

I also share vulnerable stories from my own rock-bottom moments and invite you to share yours too.

In this kickoff to the new year and my podcast revamp, I’m getting real AF about something we’ve all felt since COVID fucked everything up: we’re lonely as hell, even when we’re “connected” online. We crave deep, in-person human connection because that’s how we thrive—smashing limiting beliefs, owning our failures, tapping untapped potential, and just handling day-to-day life like the badass humans we are.

I break down why screens stole our real talk, how isolation amps up our struggles and self-sabotage, and why leading yourself means actively building supportive tribes. No fluff—just blunt truth and practical fire.

Key Takeaways:

• Human connection isn’t optional; it’s your superpower for self-leadership.
• Post-COVID, we lost the art of real bonds—time to take it back.
• Your struggles, failures, and wins deserve to be shared in safe, like-minded spaces.

The Fix I’m Bringing:
I’m hosting weekly in-person coffee chats right here in my area—mini mastermind vibes where we get raw about what’s holding us back, celebrate wins, make new friends, and support each other like a real crew. If you’re ready to stop scrolling and start connecting, hit the link in bio to join the waitlist or grab details.

Action Step for You Right Now:
This week, lead yourself to one real, in-person connection. Text a friend, host a coffee, show up somewhere. Watch how it unlocks shit you didn’t even know was stuck.

If this hit home, subscribe, drop a review (tell me your biggest disconnection struggle), and share this with someone who needs the reminder we’re better together.

Let’s rebuild connection, one real conversation at a time. You in? 🔥

Catch you next time—stay magnetic.

Welcome to the episode that finally gave me permission to say it out loud: I lost myself trying to keep everyone else happy… and I’m done with that chapter. 

In this raw, real, and super uplifting episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on how people-pleasing slowly erases the person you used to be, why we abandon everything we love just to feel “needed,” and how that spiral of unworthiness, guilt, and quiet resentment shows up—especially in dating and relationships. 

Here’s what we dive into: 

• Why being single is actually the most powerful time to rebuild your authentic self (and why the right person will find you when you’re busy being YOU)
• The painful truth about molding yourself to fit someone else’s life—and how that’s the fastest way to kill the connection
• Why the person who fell in love with you wants the real you back—not the over-giving, mask-wearing version
• The exact 5 steps I’m using right now to come home to myself (and how you can start today)
• How filling your own cup first turns you into a magnet for healthy, aligned love and friendships
• Letting go of “chasing the next thing” and choosing gratitude, peace, and joy instead

If you’ve ever felt guilty for wanting your own hobbies back, cried because you don’t recognize yourself anymore, or stayed in a relationship that dimmed your spark—this one’s for you.

In this episode I finally spill the framework that completely changed my life (and the lives of almost every client I’ve worked with).

Here’s what I unpacked:

• Why I fell hard for the “Have-Do-Be” lie for years: fancy titles, big paychecks, the works… and still felt empty and burned out.
• The exact moment I realized I was faking confidence at the top — and how flipping to Be-Do-Have pulled me out of burnout for good.
• Deep dive into Be: How to audit and rewrite your “I am” statements.
• Deep dive into Do: The 3-step filter for aligned (not frantic) action + why identity-aligned micro-habits give you 300% better follow-through.
• Deep dive into Have: Why the money, body, relationships, and impact finally stick when they become the byproduct instead of the goal.

Bottom line: When you start with who you’re becoming, the doing gets easier and the having takes care of itself.

Your homework this week

1. Write 10 “I am ___” statements as the version of you who already has it all.
2. Pick ONE tiny action that proves that identity to your brain.
3. Watch what starts showing up.

Want to fast-track this?

If you’re tired of grinding for the next “have” only to feel like it’s never enough, let’s work together 1:1. In my private coaching we lock in your new identity, build the exact aligned actions, and watch the results pour in — without the burnout. Spots are limited, but if this episode hit home, send me a DM or head to https://stan.store/manifestbossbabe/p/book-the-call-that-ends-the-apologising and let’s talk about getting you living in full Be-Do-Have mode in the next 90 days.

Drop your biggest “aha” from this episode below — I read every single one.

See you in the next one — now go Be the person.
