What does the word Faith mean to you?
Does religion spring to mind? The name of an annoying girl in your class at primary school?

To me, FAITH, is hope with backbone.

Faith is a feeling of certainty, determination and knowing beyond logic.

Our minds can make slaves of us, and see us narrow our contribution to life life, when we allow our inner monologue to contain commentary like:

'Not for the likes of me.'
'Play it safe, that sounds risky.'
'Really??!!'

But Faith runs along themes of:

'Where there is a will, there is a way.'
'Impossible is written I'm Possible.'
'It's going to happen.'

When we live in times of great and ever-increasing uncertainty as the rate of change accelerates through AI, robotics, and nanotech, faith becomes a necessity as a leader, not a nice-to-have, or only 'on a good day'.

As women, we have greater access to our intuition and have traditionally focused more on our status through relationships than through work. I am curious to see how these skills may give us the leadership edge in the age of AI and how we are best served to lead ourselves and others in this period in history.

If you are curious to hear what others have to say, and want to add your own thoughts and feelings to the mix, I'd love to have you in the room.

Something I am noticing in conversations with women right now.

The faster technology accelerates, the more important something else becomes.

Inner authority.

Not confidence in the performative sense.
The quieter kind that comes from faith, emotional intelligence and deep self trust.

For years leadership was framed around strategy, optimisation and scale.

But in a world where machines can analyse faster than we ever will, the real question becomes something different.

Who are we being when we lead?

Next week I am hosting a small private conversation for women exploring this question.

Faith and leadership in the age of AI.

It is not a webinar.

It is simply a thoughtful room for women building businesses, leading teams or creating work in a rapidly changing world.

If it feels like a conversation you would enjoy being part of, the details are in the link in my bio.

I have been having some fascinating conversations with women recently.

The faster artificial intelligence and technology accelerate, the more important something else becomes.

Inner authority.

Not the loud kind of confidence we are often told to perform in leadership.

The quieter kind that comes from faith, emotional intelligence and self trust.

For many years leadership was framed around strategy, scale and productivity.

But in a world where machines can analyse faster than we ever will, the question becomes something deeper.

Who are we being when we lead?

Next week I am hosting a small private conversation for women who are exploring that question.

Faith and leadership in the age of AI.

It will be a thoughtful discussion rather than a presentation.

If you are a founder, executive, entrepreneur or creative woman navigating leadership in this moment of enormous change, you would be very welcome.

You can find the details in the comments.

Motherhood isn’t just about children.
It’s about how we speak to ourselves.

How we guide ourselves through fear.

How we soothe the parts of us that still feel small.

At some point in life, we all become the parent we needed.

And in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, optimisation and speed, something quietly radical is happening.

The qualities that actually move humanity forward

compassion

intuition

emotional intelligence

presence

are the very things machines cannot replicate.

They are human territory.
They are heart territory.
This is the work I care about most.

And it is the work we do inside my Year of Plenty mastermind, where leaders, entrepreneurs and creatives learn how to lead themselves and their lives from a deeper place of self-trust and courage.
A few final spaces remain.

If this stirred something in you, write PLENTY in the comments or send me a message and I’ll share the details.
I’m curious about one thing:

Where in your life are you being asked to mother yourself more right now?

Something extraordinary is coming and I'll be there.

We are living in uncertain times. The world feels loud, fractured, exhausting. And in the middle of all of it, one question keeps surfacing:

*Where do I find my ground?*

That's exactly what I'll be speaking about at Soul Revolution Festival this May.

My talk is about FAITH. Not the kind that requires a particular religion or doctrine, but the kind that lives in your bones. The kind that roots you to the earth, cracks your heart wide open, and reconnects you to something far greater than whatever chaos is unfolding around you.

No matter where you are on your spiritual path, or if you don't have one at all, this talk is for you. It's about becoming unshakeable. Anchored. Alive.

Soul Revolution Festival, 22–26 May 2026, is one of the most extraordinary gatherings I've ever been part of. 200+ faith leaders, facilitators and speakers. Live music from Lubiana, Hannah Wants, Curawaka and so many more. Sacred ceremony. Movement. Fire. And thousands of people choosing to show up fully for life.

I would LOVE to see you there.

Tickets are selling fast and prices rise at end of March. Grab yours now at the link below while the price holds:

Curious how many ADHD entrepreneurs are out here?

As someone who wasn't diagnosed until their thirties, I'm always amazed to see how many other entrepreneurs in my network have ADHD.

I believe the ability to recognise patterns, higher risk tolerance, and hunger for activity, excitement, and stimulation mean that we generally have a lot of energy, a strong work ethic, and creativity in high doses. As long as we learn to regulate ourselves emotionally and deepen our emotional intelligence and fitness, we can avoid the self-sabotage, impulsivity, and burnout that can also come with the gift of having a brain wired this way.

I've just finished wrapping up a podcast with Sean Weisbrot's 7-figure business owner series, talking about being an entrepreneur with ADHD,
out soon.

Follow to hear when.

Without self-trust, success feels brittle.

My relationship with intuition has never been abstract or philosophical. It has been survival. And if I’m honest, a treasure I didn’t always recognise the value of.

Long before it was fashionable to speak about instinct in boardrooms, I was quietly building my life around it.

Nearly always going against the grain.

As an award-winning actor who refused to get a “proper job”, and at the same time somehow finding myself coaching extraordinary people in the City financial district and beyond, I learned very quickly that the mind can justify almost anything.

But the body knows first.

Some of the most important decisions of my life were not logical on paper. If I look back, most of my life hasn’t been.

Backing out of situations that looked perfect from the outside.
Saying yes to opportunities that stretched me financially and emotionally.
Writing to people I admired with no real plan other than a quiet inner pull.
Choosing rooms that felt bigger than me.
Walking away when something felt wrong, even when I couldn’t fully explain why.

Those moments shaped everything.

And so this week, listening to Stephen Bartlett interview Gavin de Becker, I found myself unexpectedly delighted.

Not because intuition was being wrapped up in disclaimers about “not wanting to sound woo”.

But because two very mainstream, commercially successful men were speaking about it as something completely normal.

Intelligent.
Credible.
Essential.

There was a moment where he said something that made me sit up straight.

He said corporate boards would rather you use logic and be wrong than use intuition and be right.

WOW.

Because I see this pattern all the time.

So many highly intelligent, sensitive, visionary men and women have been trained to justify everything.

Trained in corporate systems.
Trained through funding applications and business cases.
Trained not to take risks without evidence.
Trained to defend every decision with logic and explanation.

Even trained to create in ways that can be explained and validated.

And quietly, over time, something begins to happen.

They override their first instinct.

“I don’t like this.”
“This is the right person.”
“I want to walk away.”
“I feel I should do this.”

Instead of listening, they interrogate the thought.

They prosecute it.

They search for proof.
They gather opinions.
They try to construct a rational case.

And inside the mind prison they talk themselves out of the very thing that would have expanded them.

They tell themselves:

I’m not ready.
I don’t have enough money.
It’s not the right time.
I need more certainty.
More validation.
More proof.

Does that resonate with you?

Because here is the deeper reality.

In the age of AI, where information is endless and analysis is instant, the premium skill is not more logic.

It is discernment.

It is self-trust.

It is the ability to feel the difference between ego fear and true fear.

AI can give you information.

It cannot give you wisdom.

And what concerns me is not that technology is advancing.

It’s that we are quietly training people out of trusting themselves.

Without self-trust, success feels brittle.

You can have the title.
The revenue.
The audience.
The external validation.

But if you are constantly second guessing yourself, constantly needing proof before you move, constantly overriding what your body is telling you in order to appear rational…

Life becomes fragile.

Decisions become heavy.

You find yourself waiting for permission that never arrives.

How many business decisions are made like that?

How many life decisions?

This is not about being impulsive.

It is not about confusing anxiety with intuition.

True intuition sharpens with experience.
It sharpens with repetition.
It sharpens when your body is regulated and your emotional world is not running the show.

Over time something beautiful happens.

You begin to trust yourself again.

You live with clarity.
You act from faith.
And you trust that whatever the outcome is, it is working for you.

This is the deeper layer of the work we do inside The Plenty Mastermind.

Yes, there is strategy.

Yes, there is consultancy.

Yes, there is financial literacy and expansion.

Yes, there is community, fun and adventure.

But the real work is identity.

Because if your identity cannot hold the life you say you want, you will either sabotage it… or quietly shrink it to something that feels safer.

We begin Friday.
Doors close when we begin.

And this is not about whether you have the perfect plan.

It is about whether you are ready to strengthen the internal compass that will guide every plan you ever create.

If you are ready to stop talking yourself down…
Stop overworking from lack…
Stop believing there is not enough money, time or love…

And instead lean into intuition, adventure and community…

Then let’s have an honest conversation.

Not to persuade you.

Simply to explore whether this is your room.

The question is not whether you have intuition.

But whether you can listen to it.

Whether you trust it enough to build your life around it.

With love,
Helen

5 things I learned the hard way:
International Women’s Day is this week. It always reminds me of taking my Mum to WOW, Women of the World conference at the Southbank Centre in London for her birthday present. It was our last IWD together before she died and I am so glad I did, for many reasons.

One being that I saw Jenny Sealy speak, OBE, Deaf Woman Powerhouse Theatre Maker, intrinsic in the Olympic Opening Ceremony in the UK, not the dark part of it and trailblazer for what's possible for women to do. I was so inspired by her that I thought out her details and wrote her a letter. She responded with open arms, much to my surprise, and this led to me being on that stage the following year, making a verbatim show about the power of the va**na. It was 48 hours before the UK went into lockdown.

Also, that opportunity allowed me to invite my then 16-year-old goddaughter to be part of the performance and work with a mix of able and non-able-bodied women to create an important message, akin to the va**na monologues that had inspired me so much as a teenager. Now I'm sharing this memory not to see how many times I can use the word va**na in an email, but to show you what's possible when you follow through on contacting, on saying yes to opportunities and reaching out to people whose work means something to you. So much of my journey has been based on these two attributes.

Side note: I was also listening to Davina McCall's interview of Prue Leith, and Davina telling her that the reason that she'd had such an extraordinary life was not because of luck, but because she had the courage to say yes to opportunity and act from a place of faith rather than fear, and so I’ve been thinking about women and power.

Not the social media version.
Not the slogan version.

The quiet, internal decision to stop negotiating with yourself.

As a female founder of three businesses, all rooted in helping people move from head to heart as their compass, I have learned this:

Expansion is rarely about strategy. It is about intuition and action.

So if you are feeling the nudge to grow, to stretch, to step into something larger this year… here are my five truths.

1) Start with what happens if it goes right.
Most people wake up and rehearse catastrophe.
What if it fails.
What if I lose money.
What if I look foolish.

Instead, ask:
What if this works?
What if this opens doors I cannot yet see?
How good can it get?

Your imagination is not a toy. It is a tool. Start there every day.

2) Your intuition supersedes the algorithm, formula or logic.
Use your imagination to focus on what happens if it goes right and start there every day.
Your intuition is your biggest superpower.

3) SAY YES and take opportunities, especially if you don't feel you're ready or resourced enough. Your deepest decisions will not come from spreadsheets or schedules.
They come from that quiet inner knowing.
The whisper.
The pull.
The full-bodied yes that makes no sense but will not leave you alone.
Women who lead well trust that.

I have never felt fully ready for the rooms that changed my life.
Not healed enough.
Not resourced enough.
Not certain enough.
Not rich enough.

And yet, the yes came first.
The capacity followed.
Readiness is built in motion.

4) Women work best when nourished. Regularly depleting yourself and living in a hustle-and-grind culture makes you less effective, not more.

It is often fear wearing a productivity badge.
Fear of stopping.
Fear of not doing enough.
Fear of being overtaken.
But depletion does not create legacy, or an enjoyable life.
Too much doing can be hiding from inspiration.

Once I learned this is changed my entire life.

5) It's not about the result; it's about who you become on the journey of pursuing your dreams, and that will always be your greatest achievement.
Choose to live from love, not fear. Look for the magic in the moments not the monstrous.

It is not about the result.
It is about who you become in pursuit of it.

The money.
The title.
The business.
The visibility.

All wonderful.
But the real achievement is the woman you had to grow into to hold them.
That is the part no one sees.
And it is everything.

This Friday, The Plenty Mastermind begins.

It is a room for people, in business, in creation, in becoming. Who are ready for not letting the uncertainty of life prevent them from acting from faith, with community, with inspiration, to create:

More wealth.
More impact.
More truth.
More alignment between who they are and how they live.

This is the founding member cohort.

The investment will not be offered at this level again.

If you are feeling the pull, do not overthink it.

Book a call.
Let’s have an honest conversation about whether this is your room.

No pressure.
No performance.
Just truth.

On International Women’s Day, ask yourself:

Where am I still leading from my head…
When my heart already knows?

Artificial intelligence is accelerating.

But inner intelligence?

That is still optional.

Islamic theology describes seven stages of the Nafs. A progression from reactive ego to purified leadership.

When I first studied this, it reminded me of the Ten Worlds in Nichiren Buddhism. Different traditions. Same truth.

Your inner state determines your outer impact.

No amount of strategy compensates for an unexamined ego.

For the entrepreneurs and women leaders here:

Which stage do you recognise in yourself right now?

A private mastermind begins next week for those ready to refine both their business and their being.

Comment PLENTY or message me if you are curious.

I asked AI to create an image of me based on what it “knows”.
I’m not sure whether to be impressed or mildly offended.
What it got right, what it got wrong.

In a moment of curiosity, I asked AI to create an image of me based on what it ‘knows’. As a leadership coach and business owner working with high-capacity leaders, a consultant and entrepreneur, I was fascinated to see what surfaced…

I'm delighted with the thicker hair and classy appearance.
I think my fashion choices are a little more edgy than this and maybe it's added ten years on me. Who knows? My internal youthful optimism is sometimes in denial with what appears in the mirror.

What it got right: Ceremonial cacao on the table, keep me in my heart through the day

Red roses: my middle name and my mother's lineage. They remind me of her birthdays and her death and my grandfather, who mainly did most of the raising of me. When I sat and prayed with her co**se, the room was filled with flowers, and I took red roses and laid them around her bed.

Apple laptop, nope, I don’t like their sustainability programme, so I'm not an Apple fan, as pretty as they are.

It's been a long time since I had a camera like that, although I did use to develop my own photos in the darkroom at art school, pre-digital.

Whoop, yes, tracking my exercise, which keeps me sane. Exercise, not the tracking.

The jewellery's a little simple for my tastes. Where be my thumb rings?

Two pens, one notebook. Where are the other fifteen notebooks? That's what I want to know. ADHD support hack.

Yes, I have a microphone on my desk. Podcast interviews, client meetings and a hangover from voiceover days, did you ever hear me telling you about M&S chocolate or the importance of giving blood to the NHS, I wonder?

I love the beach. I live opposite one. I'm looking at the sea as I type.
I love a mountain. I have climbed a few.
I love swimming in the sea, especially when its as warm as this looks.

I love the sea, a sunset, and a sunrise. In fact I just love the sun in general, so I'm struggling a bit with the UK right now. Was it only a month ago I was jogging around Miami beach?

A group of people dancing behind me. I imagine I brought them together for a retreat or elite leaders making a transformation outside of their comfort zone.

And a bonfire to sit around and share stories, because stories are how we've survived as a humanity. The power of story is what opens our hearts. It's what fuelled my life as an actor, creating connection through shared experience, and it's also what I'm going to be doing this year on my mastermind. Oops, did I let the cat out of the bag? More of that to follow...

If you’re craving a life and work experience that feels vibrant, intelligent and deeply aligned with who you truly are, not just another year of performing competence under strip lighting, stay close.

This year, I am opening a small, private mastermind for high-capacity women ready for real expansion. Identity expansion. Financial expansion. Spiritual expansion. The kind that changes how you stand in a room and how money moves in your world.
It will not be large. It will not be loud. And it will not be for everyone.

If you feel a quiet yes as you read this, reply to this email with the word EXPAND and tell me where you know you are playing smaller than your capacity.

I will personally respond and, if it feels aligned, invite you into the next step.

With love and a little yey-ha!
