Listen "I'm Rebuilding my Business, My Life and my Vision"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to burn down a business and rebuild it from the inside out. After three years of working with teachers and leaders, running workshops, consulting, memberships, and courses, I realised something big — the life and business I had built no longer aligned with who I was becoming as a woman, a mother, and a leader. This episode is a raw and honest reflection on alignment, motherhood, identity, and change. I share why I'm shifting direction, what's next for my brand, and how I'm learning to prioritise myself and my family without guilt. If you've ever felt like you've outgrown what you built, or that your success started to feel misaligned — this one's for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why I decided to pause Lead with EQ and parts of my education work How motherhood changed everything — my priorities, pace, and purpose What alignment actually looks and feels like in real life (not just online) The fears and discomfort that come with burning things down to rebuild How I'm creating space for The Modern Day Mum and what's next Why emotional intelligence and nervous system regulation still sit at the core of my work What it means to choose yourself and how it transforms your family If you're a mum, educator, or business owner who feels pulled to create a life that actually feels good — this episode will remind you that it's safe to change direction. Change doesn't mean failure. It means growth, evolution, and choosing to live in alignment with your values and the season you're in. Work With Me I currently have two 1:1 coaching spaces open for the rest of the year. These sessions are for modern-day mums who are ready to regulate, realign, and rebuild their lives and businesses with emotional intelligence and nervous system awareness.
