No BS Barbie
No BS Barbie

When I first started business I was told, don’t tell people what they need tell people what they want to hear. Only problem is I think life is full of that bullsh*t. I see it in the coaching industry a lot. Relationship coaches suggesting that you’ll find your husband or wife in 12 weeks. Business coaches who promise you 6 figures before you’ve signed up for their program or had an onboarding call. You get the gist. Now don’t get me wrong I love a transformation but usually when someone comes to me they are sick of the BS in their head and or their life, they don’t want any more BS.

10 Tips to Becoming Charismatic
10 Tips to Becoming Charismatic

You’ve seen it in the movies, at a social event, even at high school all those years ago- that person who is very charismatic, to the point where you feel a pull to want to be around them. Charismatic people excel at attracting, influencing and inspiring people (Collins Dictionary) but it is because they do it with total awareness about who they are that it’s impact is so great. You very rarely encounter a charismatic person who lacks self awareness, its the vulnerability, honesty and their ability to make you feel like you is enough that makes them addictive people to be around.

Self esteem, self worth & self confidence- what's the difference?
Self esteem, self worth & self confidence- what's the difference?

Self worth, self esteem, and self confidence are three concepts that are often used interchangeably, but they are actually distinct and important aspects of our mental and emotional health. Understanding the difference between these three concepts can help you build a healthier, more fulfilling life and confident life.

When an individual exudes self-confidence it is clear that they know their worth. In action, they do what matters to them most and they leave those things that aren’t behind; they have time because they know where their effort is best spent and they no longer people please or entertain other’s vision for their life before their own. Self-worth is the foundation of confidence.

1% shifts
1% shifts

The concept of 1% shifts is phenomenal. It makes achieving goals incredibly easy to breakdown. However most people still don’t make the 1% simple enough. I approach the 1% method of goal planning to that of Biomechanics- because I’m a nerd and I love the science behind it. In Biomechanics every tiny little action has to happen in order for you to have one fluid movement that creates the greatest performance. Every single action is connected. It is exactly the same for every goal you have.

I'm afraid of being lonely...send for help!

‘I cannot believe that you can go to the movies, that you can take yourself out to a restaurant, attend an event will be seen solo on such a big scale how do you do it?’

Loneliness is something that nobody wants to feel as human beings we are designed to be social beings. We are designed to need other people.
