Being your authentic self in the online world

March 30, 2018
This week I teamed up with gorgeous Niki Hennessy to discuss a topic dear to both our hearts:

Navigating the online world with authenticity and grace.

What sparked this collaboration, was the increasing number of questions that were coming from our individual tribes.

In the last few years, the presence of social media has increased dramatically and many women are questioning whether it’s really a medium of true authenticity. We continue to hear things like:

“I’m confident with sharing…I don’t feel like I have anything to say”

“How much do I say about my personal life?”

“How do I know if I’m coming across authentic?”

“What can I do to build a presence and message if I’m considering starting a side-hustle?”

How these four entrepreneurs guided a dramatic career change

March 13, 2018
With the wealth of books, blogs, trainings and information available to us today, we can inspire the pants off ourselves every moment of the day.

But how many of these people (even if online or in books in my case) actually continue to inspire you five years on?

The very people that tell you exactly that nugget-o-wisdom exactly when you need it.

In the case of doing a 180 in my career, new ways of thinking, direction and encouragement was needed often to break through moments of confusion and fear.

These four people below, shaped my path from practising Architect to Life Coach five years later (while doing a number of other things in between). I still call on their wisdom, their quirkiness and original thinking to support my journey into business.

Because, as I mention in the video, you can’t and you shouldn’t feel like you have to do it alone.

The secret to being truly authentic in your life and work

March 6, 2018

Authenticity is a mega-buzz-word in the spiritual/personal development circles. 

Every day quotes on Instagram about it.

Social media is a perfect avenue for this new found freedom. We can do a no make-up selfie without a care in the world (although thank god some days they created filters!).

Inspiring yes, but at the same time is leaving us quite confused about what authenticity really is. Including myself. To the point where the word kinda started to bug me a little.

Truth be told, authenticity, whether I like the word or not, is sexy. When I meet someone who knows who they truly are and they live through that, it’s magnetic. 

My husband is one of those cool cats. Which is why today I wanted to share a recent conversation we had on the subject. He shared with me what it looks like to live authentically, and how you can know when you’re being truly authentic. Thanks hubs.
