Hard times don’t have to break you.

They can build you.

And boy have the last few weeks been reminding me of this truth.

I'm also reminded of how invaluable it is to have the right support around you.

Your lover. Friends. Family. A trusted coach/or therapist.

Life isn't meant to be done alone.

We are relational beings.

Maybe there is something in what I’ve shared that speaks to a part of you.

Or maybe not (that’s OK too).

But, if there is.

If at this time, you too are *Growing Through It* - I invite you to reflect:

What life lesson/s can I take from the challenging experience I’m going through/just gone through?

Who am I becoming/have I become as a result of this challenge?

Feel free to share in the comments, or slide into my DMs with your reflections — they’re always open.

Self-trust is vital in entrepreneurship.

You don’t need to be spoon feed solutions.

You don’t need to follow someone else’s blueprint.

You can become your own.

You can create the capacity to feel safe enough to move even when the path ahead seems unclear.

Real talk...

Don’t hire me as your coach if you want to be prescribed answers.

But, if you want to deepen your self-trust, and reorient to the answers that already within you...

Then, this is the kind of work we get to do in my 1:1 spaces.

You hold the vision.

Together, we co-create a space where you feel held, and seen so that you can continue walking toward your vision without second-guessing or backsliding into a ditch of doubt every time the path feels like it’s disappearing in front of you.

If you can feel yourself on the cusp of change, and you know that the threshold between who you are now and who you’re becoming is slowly dissolving


Then, I’m calling you in.

THE CROSSOVER đŸȘ¶ is an intimate 1:1 space for the creative leader that's shedding their old identity and slowly embodying a new one — turning their dreams and desires into reality.

In this space, you don’t have to become someone completely new.

You get deepen into who you already are.

If you’re ready to deepen the self trust that is already there + something in this has drawn you closer to find out about what might be possible if we work together...

DM me CROSSOVER to continue the conversation.

A coach doesn't give you answers.

They help you reorient to the answers that are already within you.

So why do we see so many online "coaches" positioning themselves as the ones that hold the “secret” solutions to your struggles?

For too long, coaching has been confused with advice giving.

The idea of following someone else’s roadmap to achieve your own version of success has been normalised.

Because of this, as you scroll the feed, seeking the right support to build your brand + business, you question whether to hire a coach of some kind, a mentor, or keep going back + forth in conversation with Claude hoping to get more clarity on your current challenge.

In this live we will open up the conversation around what coaching is (and isn't).

And, how we see it helps creative leaders just like you to cultivate the necessary self trust to continue building the business (and life) you’ve been craving.

Without these systems, I'd be a hot mess!

They support me in my current season.

And, because they’re flexible, I trust that they’ll be able to support me in the seasons ahead (when I’m not working 9-5).

They’re part of a larger evergreen eco-system: The Core OS.

When you join Create From The Core, you gain access to this full system.

See it as your semi-furnished home that you can customise once you’ve moved in.

I give you the keys. You furnish it with your ideas. The words that won’t leave you alone + the projects you want to share with the world.

Because as a coach or creative service provider building an online brand, you don’t want to feel mentally scattered everyday.

You want to open your laptop and know what tasks are to be focused on for that week or day.

You want to feel deeply supported so that you can deliver/facilitate your work well.

And you want a central place to keep all of your brand building elements in a home you can safely to return to daily.

This is why I created Create From The Core.

A 12 week communal + self-paced incubator for skilled heart-led coaches + creatives who are ready to reclaim their voice, stop outsourcing their answers to social media growth gurus + build an impactful, relational brand – one that doesn’t ask you to constantly contort yourself into a box to be seen.

Entrepreneurship isn't just a path to create a life where you can live more on your own terms.

It's a portal that invites you time & time again to do the inner work.

The not always so sexy stuff.

Over the years, I've read many personal development books.

But, building an online relational brand.

Creating content.

Showing up online.

Coaching others while I also navigate life experiences has been one of the most challenging, humbling, yet rewarding journeys for my personal growth.

The idea that you only need a solid mindset to succeed in business is only one part of the whole.

At some point you'll have to confront the things you tell yourself in your head that are holding you back, and also be in relationship with the truths that sit at the throne of your heart.

Mind & body.

Or otherwise known as: bodymind.

The stories you hold that no longer serve you.

The beliefs you picked up over the years that you're already quietly challenging.

Inner work is part of personal development.

It's not just about outward action & being productive 24/7.

This is the kind of work we get to do together when working 1:1.

The inner work that steers the direction for outer strategy in business & life.

We're not fixing, but co-creating space for you to feel what is true.

Then, use the insights that emerge to walk forward with your next truthful step aka — taking aligned action (even if the path ahead isn't fully clear yet).

Because the truth that many try to bypass is that most of the obstacles we face aren't outside of us — they're within us.

What are you being called to confront this month as you build/lead your brand & business?

You’re not delusional. You’re discerning.

Deep within you, you know that you can build your brand as a coach in a different way.

In a way that honours your wholeness, and the wholeness of those that enter your world.

You don’t want to build a brand upon extraction and manipulation.

You want to build a brand that honours genuine connection and collaboration.

On your entrepreneurial journey, you’ve seen approaches to building a brand that seem to work for others online.

When you’ve tried them, they’ve always felt like trying on last years Christmas jumper that no longer fits.

So you continue exploring. Determined to succeed yet already quietly questioning the beliefs that you currently hold about building a brand.

This is something I wish I did sooner.

Many of the approaches you’ve tried don’t just feel uncomfortable. They feel deeply unaligned.

When we enter the online space as coaches we unknowingly adopt the beliefs and approaches on how to build a brand, without challenging where they come from, to see whether they are of true service to us, or whether they’re actually suffocating our growth.

Before we begin 12 weeks of working together in Create From The Core — we start here.

Exploring the beliefs we hold. Challenging them with curiosity, then, creating new ones.

If you’re already quietly questioning how you want to build & lead your brand as a coach & creative leader.

Then CFTC might be for you.

CFTC is a 12 week communal + self-paced incubator for skilled heart-led coaches ready to reclaim their voice, stop outsourcing their answers to social media growth gurus + build an impactful, relational brand – one that doesn’t ask you to constantly contort yourself into a box to be seen.

When you join the waitlist, you receive the Explore The Core workbook + ÂŁ100 off the investment price.

The beta round of Create From The Core was meant to be 5 weeks.

But, by week 3 I could sense we were craving more time.

More space to be in community, receive support, and work through the programme at a slower pace.

So, I offered a 12 week extension to begin when the 5 weeks ended.

4 out of the 9 members extended.

If I focused on trying to create the perfect programme from the beginning, I probably would have given up early on.

Instead, I allowed the mess to be part of the process.

I was extremely transparent in my messaging with letting people know this is a beta programme.

People knew I was still figuring things out.

But, I held a vision that I was (and still am) convicted with.

My stance was:

*This is where I am now. This is where I believe we can go. If you feel the call. Let’s walk together in figuring this out.*

I thought this stance would scare people away.

Because our feeds are filled with *guru experts* preaching that we need to position ourselves as the ones that know it all in order to lead with authority.

But, I don’t subscribe to that BS anymore.

My transparency didn’t scare people away.

It invited the right ones in.

Great leaders don’t always have it all figured out.

They’re the ones willing to go ahead. Daring to figure it out on the way.

I didn’t overpromise, or give crazy guarantees.

I just shared truthfully. And learned to trust myself more as I walked into the unknown.

This is what beta offers allow you to do.

If you want to experiment with building a beta offer — I’m considering hosting a free workshop/challenge for heart-led skilled coaches & creative service providers at the end of March.

Maybe that wall isn't trying to stop you.

Maybe it has something to say to you.

In a recent coaching session, I was reminded of the power + beauty of bringing the problems we're facing into our physical environment.

To be in relationship with "the wall" rather than run away from it in the hopes that it'll move.

Most of the time it doesn't move.

At least not until we do.

Lately, I’ve been noticing a quiet shift.

An orienting towards truer relationships.

Aligned communities.

A deeper desire for connection with self.

We’re sidestepping from seeking only experts: those who have done the thing already for support as we build our businesses + life.

Now, we’re also seeking trusted exploration partners.

Guides we can walk alongside as we figure out our next truthful step.

Relational depth has + always will be necessary pillar in my work.

And, I feel like I’m finally finding the language to express what I’ve felt was missing from much of the support I sought at the beginning of my online personal branding journey.

Often, we're called to step forward before we truly feel "ready."

To build the thing while simultaneously figuring out.

So receiving feedback from folks that are experiencing that which you are creating/have created is truly heart warming đŸ«¶đŸż
