Are You Gaslighting Yourself?

You might have heard the term gaslighting used to describe manipulation in relationships. But what if I told you that many women in leadership unknowingly gaslight themselves every single day?

It looks like this:

👉🏽 Downplaying your achievements by telling yourself, “Anyone could have done this.”
👉🏽 Judging yourself for asking for help, thinking, “She’s doing it all effortlessly—why can’t I?"
👉🏽 Blaming yourself for feeling exhausted, believing, “I’m just not strong enough.”

This inner narrative chips away at your confidence, leaves you questioning your worth, and keeps you stuck in a cycle of anxiety and self-doubt.

But here’s the truth:
🤬 That voice in your head? It’s not telling you the truth. It’s a conditioned habit—one you can change.

You are a powerful creator, and it’s time to create a new reality - one where you value yourself ❤️

Christmas can be a mixed bag of emotions so here's a reminder that no matter what's going on in your corner of the world, the one thing you have power over is your inner world.

The conditioned habitual mind has developed patterns of thought, many of which don't serve you and keep you feeling lonely, separate, angry, frustrated or isolated. By practising changing your inner world of thoughts and feelings, you can change your outer world ❤️

You have to learn to think greater than your current reality and it's likely the ego is going to get involved because it feeds off fear and separation. To see what's possible, you have to remove the limitation of what you're seeing.

The more you master the inner landscape, and remain regulated, the better you feel. And the better you feel, the more doors will open to lead you out of your current reality. ⁠

How to master your inner world...

1. Start journaling - habits of thinking sound like old news! Get good at recognising when you're entertaining an old habitual thought that tells you nothing about reality!
2. Ask yourself - what experience do you want to create? Focus on what you do want to experience feeling versus what you don't want to feel
3. Use EFT Tapping daily to regulate your autonomic nervous system which is your control centre
4. Challenge your thoughts - what makes you believe a thought? Who would you be without that thought?

Sending ❤️ to you this Christmas.

Why Energy Psychology is the Secret Weapon High-Achieving Women Are Turning To

Traditional methods of leadership development focus heavily on external skills such as managing teams, strategic planning, or time management. But let’s be honest - those are just surface-level skills.

The real challenge for women in leadership lies deeper—within their inner world where self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and hidden limiting beliefs reside. Here’s where energy psychology comes in, and why it’s a game-changer:

🌌 What is Energy Psychology? Energy psychology is based on the understanding that our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions are energetically charged patterns in our nervous system. These patterns, formed from early experiences, condition us to react, doubt, or hold back in specific ways—even if we consciously know better.

🧘 How it Transforms the Inner World: Through techniques like EFT tapping, breathwork, and quantum flow, energy psychology works to disrupt these ingrained patterns at a cellular level. When you apply these methods, you’re not just learning “to manage stress”—you’re rewiring the way your mind and body react to stress in the first place.

✨ Imagine This: You step into a high-stakes meeting. Rather than the usual spike in anxiety, you feel calm, centred, and clear-headed. That’s not just training—it’s transformation 💥

This is what high-achieving women are discovering: that true leadership mastery comes when you shift your energy from survival mode into a state of grounded confidence and empowerment. Imagine the freedom of showing up fully as you are, without old doubts creeping in.

If you’re ready to explore the techniques that bring this level of transformation, DM me ACCESS to receive my free training where I’ll introduce you to these powerful tools and guide you through the science and practice of energy psychology. Unlock the true potential waiting within you. 💫

🌟 What Stories Have You Created That Aren't Serving You?🌟

Your thoughts create powerful frequencies that influence your emotions and experiences. What you place your focus of attention on is where your energy goes - and that creates stories! Stories that don't serve you! It's time to create a new story! ✨

💥 ALL struggle is the ego

On one hand, your ego craves comfort—it wants everything to stay the same, and the moment you step out of your comfort zone or get close to achieving your goals, it throws a fit. It loves the familiar, the predictable.

But on the other hand, it’s never truly satisfied. Ever found yourself comparing your life to others and thinking, "I want what they have"? Yep, that’s your ego talking.

We all have an ego but you don't have to let it run the show!

You are not broken. Let that sink in. ❤️

For too long, women in leadership have been told that they need to fix themselves—to be more confident, more capable, more of everything. But here's the truth: You are already whole, already enough, just as you are.

The doubt, insecurity, and fear you feel? That’s not who you are. It’s simply a filter—a set of outdated beliefs and old stories from past experiences that have shaped the way you see yourself. These thought patterns have been running the show for years, creating an illusion that you’re not enough. But none of this reflects your true self.

When I work with women, it’s never about fixing them. Instead, it’s a journey of healing and self-discovery, where they begin to uncover the treasure that’s always been there:

✨ You are confident.
✨ You are amazing.
✨ You are worthy of everything you’ve achieved and more.

You’ve had this strength inside you all along. My work is about helping you see it, so you can stop trying to prove yourself and start embracing the incredible leader you already are.

This is your time. Not to fix, but to remember who you truly are.

Are you willing for your present and future to be unlike your past?

So many of us think we are—but the truth is, we’re often held back by our old ways of thinking, responding, and doing. If you really want your leadership—and life—to be different, you have to be willing to let go of the past.

✨ This means:

- Letting go of old emotional responses rooted in insecurity.
- Letting go of the ego’s need to prove itself.
- Shifting your focus from fear-based reactions to conscious, empowered decisions.
- When you stop letting the past control your present, you open the door to a whole new way of leading.

Ready to make that shift? DM me to learn how I help women leaders step into their true potential.

🔥 STOP being a slave to your emotions

As women in leadership, we often find ourselves reacting emotionally to the pressure and challenges around us—whether it's insecurity, frustration, or self-doubt. But here's the thing: When you're constantly reacting to these emotions, you're letting them control you. You're not leading—you’re being led by your past beliefs and experiences.

What if you could take back control? 💪

I teach women in leadership how to step out of that emotional slavery and reclaim their power. It’s not about never having these emotions. It's about not getting stuck in them.

Your ego thrives on keeping you in fear and separation, but you can learn to see beyond its tricks. You’re not here to prove yourself—you’re here to lead with self-worth and clarity.

✨ Ready to take back control and stop letting old beliefs run the show? Let's connect and dive into how you can lead from a place of calm empowerment.

Stop Giving Your Power Away to an Old Story!

Stories. We’re full of them, aren’t we?

So, what’s your story? Is it one where you’re Wonder Woman, confidently creating your own reality? Or is it more of a “poor me” narrative, full of self-doubt, anxiety, and “not good enough” vibes?

Here’s the thing about our stories: they might seem innocent enough, but the more we tell them, the more we reinforce them. As a therapist with over 10 years of experience, I’ve seen it time and time again—people love to share their stories. It’s like, “Let me tell you every piece of crap that’s ever happened to me” 🙄

And trust me, my clients are often surprised when I tell them, I don’t need your story.

Yep, you heard me right. I don’t need to do an archaeological dig through your past to help you create the future you actually want.

I work with women who have been through therapy before—counselling, CBT, the works—and they’re usually puzzled at first when I say, “Nope, we don’t need to go there.” Here’s why: when you understand the human psyche and how powerful creation is, you realise that it’s so much easier to overcome those old stories of “I’m not good enough” or “I’m not smart enough” by focusing on the story you want to create.

So stop giving your power away to those tired, old stories that no longer serve you. Start creating a new one—one where you’re in control, feeling confident, and owning your power. 💥

You’re the author of your life. What’s your next chapter going to be?
