If you’ve been holding back coz you don’t feel confident enough yet…
I get it.
I used to think that too.

Back when I launched my first course, I told myself I’d start once I felt ready.
Once I had more time.
Once I sounded more polished.

Butttt here’s the thing I learned —
Confidence doesn’t come before the action.
It comes because of it.

I was hella messy, but I started anyway —
that’s where the confidence started to build.

It wasn’t overnight.
It was a slow stack of small wins.

Sooooo if you’ve been wait’n for confidence before you move — don’t. Start with the tiniest step you can.
Let that action be your evidence.

Feeling unmotivated lately? Read this 👇🏽

Discipline beats motivation every time.

The same consistency you use in sport, in health, or even parenting —
that’s the same energy that’ll build your course a.k.a your own biz 💪🏼

Motivation is cute when it shows up.
Butttt discipline? That’s like the real vibe.

If you’ve ever trained your body, you already know what it takes…

Show up. Even when you don’t feel like it.
Push through. Even when it’s not flashy.
Repeat. Until it becomes second nature.

If you can train your body,
You can def’ create your own thing.
You’ve already proven you can do hard things.

Now it’s time to channel that same energy into your next level 💪🏽

Drop a 💛 if you feel that shift.

When I first thought about building a course, my to-do list was my biggest enemy.
Every day: 20+ things written down.
Every night: 3 half-done🙄

Then I learned this:
The list wasn’t the problem.
The way I used it was.

I started filtering my list like this:
👉🏽 Which 3 things move me forward the fastest?
👉🏽 Which 3 can I delegate?
👉🏽 Which 3 don’t even matter?

The result?
Well ….I wasn’t drowning in 20 tasks.
I had 3 that mattered.
And the leftover time?
That’s what I used to start building my course.

Turns out, finding time isn’t more hours… it’s less clutter.

Feelin’ a lil called out lately?
That’s readiness knockin’.

You’ve been sittin’ on your gems —
Your story. Your skills. Your lived-as life.

When I built my first course, I didn’t have it all figured out.
But I had one idea + a messy Google Doc — and that was enough to get goin’.

You don’t need perfect.
You just need a place to start.

I made a free guide to help you lock that first idea in — 30 mins flat. Drop HIGH and I’ll send it your way.

Your story is your strategy
Not the polished version—
the messy one, the real one.

Most people downplay their story because:
- They think it has to be perfect.
- They think no one will care.
- They think they need “more proof.”

Here’s the thing 👇
-Perfect isn’t relatable. Real is.

- Your story won’t connect with everyone. It’s not supposed to.

- Proof doesn’t come before you share. Proof comes because you share.

The thing you’ve lived through?
That’s the exact thing someone else is still fighting through right now.

Let’s start pulling your story into something powerful — comment ‘STORY’ and I’ll send you my guide.

We’ve all heard it:
“Make money in your sleep!”
“Passive income while you chill on the beach!”

Ahhh Hey, this is the dream we’ve all been sold — but here’s the reaaaal tea:
Online course income isn’t just passive.
It’s powerful.

When I built my first course, I wasn’t dreaming of cocktails and palm trees.
I was visioning of something waaaayyy more hella valuable:

✅ Time with my babies
✅ Flexibility to choose my schedule
✅ No more asking for permission for the basics like can I go on holidy

And yup—when that first payment hit while I was dropping the kids to school. I felt the shift.

I’d built something once that could serve over and over again. That’s not passive. That’s powerful.

Rewind to 2018 - juggling three kids, a corporate job, and more Zoom calls than I care to count.
There was
- no perfect schedule.
- perfect set-up.
Annnd there was definitely no “free time.” Like what is that, right 🤷🏽‍♀️

Butttt there was a vision.
Annnd there was one single hour a week that I stopped giving away.

I was like…
“Even if it’s messy… even if I don’t know everything… I’m still gonna show up .”

That one messy hour became my first course.
Annnnd that course became my first course income.
And that income gave me the online know how (and flexibility) I didn’t even know I was searching for.

Here’s the thing ..
- Endless free time is def’ a myth - you don ’t need it anyway
- You just need one messy hour and the courage to start.

So lemme me ask you —
What could one reclaimed hour a week do for you?

If you’ve been sitting on an idea and wait’n for the “right time,” I put together a free 30-minute guide to help you spot your course idea. Comment Idea below and I’ll send it to you.

➡️ 9–5 mama—this one’s for you.

You’re the Queen of holding it together. I see you…
Back-to-back meetings.
KPI pressure.
Team fires to put out before lunch.

Annnd somehow, you still show up vibed with a smile…

But here’s the thing
Burnout doesn’t always come from doing too much.
Sometimes it comes from doing too little of the stuff that vibes you up.

This week—
✨ Stop waiting for permission.
✨ Stop taking advice from people who’ve never done what you’re tryna do.
✨ Annnd get around ppl who are same vibes as you

You’ve already got what it takes. You just need the steps

Comment HIGH below & i’ll send you my guide.

What If This Time… It Works? …

We love to ask, “What if it doesn’t work?”
But… have you ever asked this? ..
What if it DOES? 🤔

When I first started thinking about doing my own thing, I was so good at talking myself out of it
Too risky. Too busy. Too late - YKYK…
I’d go through every reason it might fail — and it felt safer to just stay in my lane.

But deep down? I knew I was already running on fumes. Every day looked the same: long hours, endless KPIs, running from meeting to meeting, trying to be present for my kids in between.
The pay was good, but the cost was high.

One day I thought…
What if this time, it actually works?
What if someone out there needed to hear my story?
What if my skills could create something that’s bankable AND gave me time back?

The second I stopped obsessing over “what if it fails” and started exploring “what if it works,” my whole energy shifted.

I wasn’t tryna have it all figured out — I just took one step.
That one step turned into another… and before I knew it, I’d built something that gave me options I never had before.

If you’ve been stuck in “what if it doesn’t” vibes, ask yourself this instead👇🏼

✅ What if my skills are worth more than I think?
✅ What if the timing is better than I realise?
✅ What if I’m actually more ready than I feel?

Because you might just surprise yourself💛

We love to ask,
“What if it doesn’t work?”

Buttttt have you ever let yourself sit with this instead: “What if it does?”, yah know starting your own thing, that side hustle…

✨ What if starting your own thing actually opens a door you’ve been waiting for?

✨ What if your lived experience—the lessons, the wins, even the messy ones—is the blueprint to make an impact

✨ What if you tapped into it a bit more?

You’re not too late.
You’re not behind.

You’re right on time.

Lesss rewind real quick—
Was your dream at school to sit in traffic every morning…
pull up to a job you lowkey resent by Monday,
and spend the whole week counting down to Friday?

Yeah…😩 been there.

But somewhere between the spreadsheets and the packed lunchboxes,
you got real good at surviving.

Butttt if your at a … “this isn’t it…” stage
That’s not crazy.
That’s clarity.

Sooo here’s a something something you can do today:

💪🏼Block 10 boss mins.
Grab your fav pen n’ write this out:

“What would I rather be doing?”
Don’t censor it.
Don’t shrink it.
Let it out…

Because vision starts with honesty.
And big moves start with tiny scribbles.

💬 “Sometimes all it takes is 3 minutes and a patch of grass.”

Back in my corporate days, I worked in the heart of the concrete jungle—Auckland City.

Phone in one hand. Laptop bag in the other.
Running meetings. Fixing problems. Always on.

But anytime I had a break—even 3 minutes—I was out the door, hunting for a patch of grass.
Didn’t matter if it was next to a busy road or squeezed between buildings.

That tiny moment of fresh air and bare feet?
It reset everything. Energy back. Mind sharp.

And that’s the real win.

It’s not about a full wellness routine or finding an hour you don’t have. It’s about those tiny resets that help you show up again—and again—and again.

If you’re juggling a million tabs in your head…
Take a 3min vibe check and let your feet sink in 💯
