EP68: The Impact of Taking One Small Step Every Day

Hello there lovely! 

Apologies for the delay in releasing this episode, I haven’t been feeling well during the last couple of days and didn’t want to push myself too hard at this stage (heavily pregnant!). So you know - practice what you preach and all that 😅

But I’m coming to you today with a very key message that was inspired by a conversation with my coach. It’s all about taking one small step every day towards your goals and how much this can impact your progress. Let me know what your small step today will be 🥰

EP67:  Building Confidence with a Creative Outlet

Newsflash!!!

You already have the confidence. It just hasn't been tapped into yet or channeled through the best method for you.

How do you do this? By finding a creative passion that is aligned with you - something that lights you up and allows you to express yourself fully.

(Imagine me in a busy shopping centre on the mic pretending to be '03 Avril Lavigne)

👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Listen to this episode to find out how creativity has helped to boost my confidence at times when:

If you already have something you love doing - do more of it!  The confidence it will give you is worth its weight in gold.

And if you don't know what your creative passion is... I can help you with my Creative Clarity Sessions --- see the link at the end to find out more!

EP. 63:   3 Things You Need to Know About Limiting Beliefs

📣 >>>> TODAY'S EPISODE <<<< 📣

This week I'm talking about a topic that interests me a lot, especially as I've recently qualified as an NLP Practitioner. 

That topic is Limiting Beliefs, my friend - and we all have 'em.

One of my key aims in Creative Goddess Club is to help you to release negative or limiting beliefs that have been holding you back, stopping you from living the life you desire. Aka - the life you DESERVE.

So in this podcast episode I'd like to start with helping you to become aware of any limiting beliefs you might have, by sharing 3 things you need to know about them.  Tune in to find out!

EP. 62:  Let Go of the Shoulds and Hustle: Choose to create your own version of balance

📣 >>>> TODAY'S EPISODE <<<< 📣

This week I felt the need to talk about the topic of creating balance in your life. It's hugely important that everyone allows themselves to be HUMAN and understand that we need connections, relationships, joy... basically a life outside our creative businesses.

It really frustrates me when I see these posts online saying "if you want to be successful you can't watch Netflix" or shaming people for wanting to see their friends, saying they "don't want it enough" if they're not constantly working around the clock. 

I believe in working hard to achieve your goals, but this can look different for everyone and it's not a "one size fits all". 

We are not ROBOTS!! 🤖

So, be sure to tune in to hear about how I believe you can create balance and make working "work" for you 💁🏼‍♀️

EP.61.  5 Cliché Pieces of Advice That Have Helped Me Stay on Track

Hello! I thought it would be fun to do things a little differently this week, with a reflective episode sharing the greatest pieces of advice I've received on my creative business journey. Of course, it was tricky to narrow them down into a condensed few - so I will be doing more of these!

📣 >>>> TODAY'S EPISODE <<<< 📣

I'm sharing with you 5 pieces of advice that have helped me so so much on my creative business journey. Although they are a liiiittle cliché - they are still pure gold and will never get old (rhyming is my jam).

So, make sure you tune in to hear what they are and how such a simple group of words can help you really put things back in perspective 👁

And don't forget to write these down on some post-it notes and stick them at your desk / bathroom mirror to remind you. Maybe even have fun with it and put them in a jar, taking one out every week to focus on?

EP. 60:  There is more than one path available to you

Hey there!  I'm back after my trip to Italy and feeling super inspired by my surroundings.

I am however sooo ready to continue sharing my words of wisdom with you in this wonderful space we have here.

📣 >>>> TODAY'S EPISODE <<<< 📣

Today I wanted to share a message inspired by my recent travels - where we decided to take a step back from the "travel blogger" + "bucketlist" mentality and:

On reflection I felt that parallels can be drawn between the above and building a creative business ⚡️

Maybe we can learn some lessons from this as we navigate our paths and remain strong in our efforts to dodge the "hype" recommendations?
