Self Maid

In this episode, I dive into one of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in running a cleaning business: success doesn’t come from doing more, it comes from doing less, better.

I’ll talk about simplifying your services, streamlining the booking process, and making your customer journey easy and stress-free. I’ll also share how cutting down the noise in your systems not only improves quality but actually makes it easier to scale.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by trying to do too much in your business, this episode is your reminder: simplify, refine, and focus on what really matters.

In this episode of Self Maid, I break down how cleaning business owners can use time blocking to take control of their schedules, boost productivity, and create more space for growth.

In this episode of Self Maid, I share my raw, unfiltered experience of setting up an offshore virtual call centre, something I know absolutely nothing about. It takes me right back to my early days in business, when every problem felt bigger than me and every decision was a step into the unknown.

Six years in, running a multi-location cleaning business, you’d think I’d have it all figured out. But the truth is, there are still challenges that make me feel completely out of my depth. I talk about the anxiety of not knowing what’s around the corner, the excitement of tackling new problems head-on, and why having a clear north star keeps me relentlessly moving forward, even when I have no idea what I’m doing.

 Right now it feels chaotic, uncertain, and maybe even overwhelming, but one day, you’ll look back on this moment as the “good old days.” In this episode, I break down the highlight bias; why the past always feels better than it really was, and how to shift your mindset when today feels like a mess. If you’re in the thick of growing your business, this is your reminder: you’re not off track, you’re just in the part of the story you’ll one day be proud of.

 In this episode of Self Maid, we're talking about why being your own biggest fan isn’t just mindset fluff, it’s a real growth strategy. If you're not hyped about your business, why would anyone else be? I’ll break down how to confidently talk about what you do, create momentum through energy and storytelling, and build a brand people want to be part of. Whether you're running a cleaning business, selling a service, or just starting out, this is your reminder to stop playing small. You don’t need to fake it, you just need to own it. Because the louder you back yourself, the more the world listens.

In this episode, we unpack how to choose the right business coach, not just the one shouting the loudest online. I’ll walk you through the importance of value alignment, personal connection, and setting clear goals before you invest in any mentorship. Because here’s the truth: if you don’t know what you want, you’ll end up attracted to whoever’s best at selling it. We’ll talk about why coaches can’t give you answers to questions you haven’t asked yourself yet, and how finding the right fit can unlock real progress, not just more noise.

 I recently hopped on a plane from Perth all the way to Brisbane for an intensive four-day certification course in Applied Microbial Remediation through the IICRC. Guided by the S500 and S520 professional standards, I dove deep into the science of mould, water damage, and microbial growth, learning how to properly remediate issues most homeowners don’t even realise exist. In this episode, I break down what I learned, debunk common mould myths, and share practical tips you can apply right now to prevent mould in your home or business. If you think bleach solves your mould problem or painting over mould is enough, think again. Join me to find out what the experts actually recommend!

In this episode, I dive into one of the biggest silent killers of cleaning businesses: cash flow problems. You’re paying your team every week, but your clients are taking 60 to 90 days to pay you. That gap? It can crush your growth if you don’t have a plan.

I break down the real numbers behind this cash flow squeeze and share three powerful ways to fix it — including how to use overdrafts, invoice financing, and even my credit card to bridge the gap and keep payroll running smoothly.

If you've ever felt the stress of being profitable on paper but broke in your bank account, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Self Maid, I dive into one of the most underrated but insanely effective ways to grow your residential cleaning business: door knocking. Yep; just you, some flyers, and the courage to show up.

I break down why this strategy works so well in male-dominated niches like pressure washing and window cleaning, and why most residential cleaners are leaving money on the table by ignoring it. We’ll explore some of the mindset blocks that stop people (especially women) from giving it a go, and how to overcome them.

You’ll also get example scripts, practical tips, and a fresh way of looking at direct sales that could unlock a whole new stream of clients.

If you’ve ever felt stuck on how to get more leads without spending big, this episode is your sign to knock on the next door, and open a whole new level of opportunity.

In this episode, I break down how to turn your clients into loyal, selfless salespeople, without begging for referrals or bribing them with lame discounts.

We’re talking about building a referral system based on reciprocity—where both the referrer and the referred person benefit. It’s simple, smart, and it works because it taps into how people actually behave.

I also share one of my favourite stories; how George Clooney gave $1 million to his 14 best mates, with one condition that created the perfect mix of generosity and social pressure. There’s a huge business lesson in that, and I’ll show you how to apply it directly to your cleaning biz.

If you want more referrals without being awkward or pushy, this is the episode for you.
