For my husband’s 40th, I planned an entire surprise weekend, in this episode I share the itinerary, links to every spot we visited, and why intentional experiences matter so much in this season of life.

This year has stretched me in ways I didn’t expect.

With Jackson starting school and stepping into a new role selling and designing new homes, our routines have shifted. There’s been friction. Highs and lows. Moments of gratitude and moments of “what am I doing?”

In this episode, I share what this season is teaching me about grounding myself daily, about finding gratitude in the chaos, and about what so many driven mums in business are actually missing.

Through this transition, I’ve uncovered a gap I feel deeply called to fill and I talk about what that means and where it’s leading.

I also share:

• My current morning routine
• Why meditation is my non-negotiable right now
• How I’m choosing to embody the next version of me before she fully arrives
• How to act as if without knowing the how or the when

This conversation is about becoming.
About rising into the woman you’re meant to be before the results show up.

If you’re in a season of change, friction, or expansion this one will resonate.

Off the cuff episode. Jackson and Nickson are so close in age, yet this season has shown me just how differently time can feel for each of them.

One has started school, stepping into independence, new routines, and a whole new world. And I didn’t expect how emotional that transition would be. There’s something about watching your child walk into their next chapter that stretches your heart in ways you can’t prepare for.

But surprisingly, leaving preschool felt even more harder.

Nick is still so small… yet somehow so big at the same time. It’s that bittersweet space where you realise they don’t need you in quite the same way anymore.

This episode is about growth, identity shifts (for them and for us), and the quiet emotional layers of motherhood that no one really talks about.

If you’re navigating transitions with your kids, this one will feel close to home.

I’m sharing a update on what life has looked like lately, including stepping into a brand-new homes consultant sales role and how that opportunity came onto my radar.

I talk through the bigger picture behind this decision, referencing my long-term vision and goals (including what I shared back in Episode 27), and why having a clear vision, both individually and with your partner, is so important when making big life and career moves.

I take you behind the scenes of what this new role actually involves, the flexibility and contract structure, how my first week went, the challenges I’m navigating, and what I’m genuinely enjoying so far. I also reflect on what I know I’m good at, being a friendly first point of contact, working with people around their biggest assets, listening deeply, understanding their needs, and putting thoughtful plans together.

I also address the question some of you might be asking around Shaklee. That business isn’t going anywhere, if anything, I’m going all in even more this year. I share how I’m intentionally planning my weeks (referencing Episode 2), saying no to a lot, and being extremely deliberate with my time and energy. This year is about showing what’s possible when you build something meaningful alongside your existing work and life commitments, without burning out.

This is my quantum leap year. It’s not flashy or glamorous, it’s focused, disciplined, and requires me to go hard for a short season so I can create long-term freedom, flexibility, and impact. I’m so grateful you’re here for the journey.

And lastly… a small but honest life update, I’m drinking less too 😉

Thank you for being here and supporting the season I’m in.

Welcome back to another episode.

This season, I’m getting radically focused on just two things: scaling my income and business + getting hot AF, lean, strong, and in the best shape of my life.

With my firstborn starting school, life has officially shifted. I now have one child in and one out, which has forced a new level of structure, boundaries, and intentionality with my time. I’m balancing a growing online business alongside selling new homes, and the only way to do both well is to narrow my focus and raise my standards.

In this episode, I break down what it actually looks like to level up in real life, refining my calendar, cutting distractions, committing to disciplined routines, and investing in the right support. I’ve hired a business mentor and a personal trainer because I’m no longer interested in doing things the hard way or staying at the same level.

This is about alignment, execution, and becoming the version of me who can hold more success, more energy, more confidence, and more freedom.

If you’re in a season where you know it’s time to simplify, commit, and elevate… this one’s for you.

I’m opening up a little more over the next few months with some fun, “get to know me” episodes and today’s one is such a good place to start.

In this episode, I’m sharing the story behind the three joint accounts I’m part of with friends and family, and how they’ve helped us create fun holidays, weekends away, and the little adventures that make life feel richer.

These accounts have paid for so many fun experiences over the years, and I think they’ll inspire you to look at your own relationships, money habits, and traditions in a whole new way.

This episode is a deep dive into the exact steps that helped me drop 7kg this year most of it since September, without obsession, restriction, or burnout. I share the honest habits and health routines that helped me finally feel strong, energised, and in control again.

I talk through the three pillars that made the biggest difference for me:
✔ Consistent movement — Pilates for strength + mobility, weights for muscle tone and metabolism, and the StairMaster for that low-impact, high-burn cardio.
✔ Clean, intentional nutrition — not dieting, just fuelling my body with what it truly needed.
✔ Smart supplementation — specifically the Modere/Shaklee Shape and Burn products that supported my body’s natural fat-loss processes.

You’ll hear exactly how Shape and Burn work, in simple, real-world language:

• Shape helps support fat metabolism, lean muscle maintenance, and appetite control. It works alongside a healthy diet by helping your body use stored fat as energy more efficiently, making your workouts and good choices go further.
• Burn helps boost thermogenesis (your body’s natural calorie-burning process), supports energy, and assists with fat breakdown. It doesn’t replace movement or mindful eating — it amplifies them. Think of it as giving your metabolism a gentle nudge in the right direction while you’re doing your part with exercise, hydration, and nutrition.

This isn’t a magic-pill but when your habits, mindset, nutrition, supplementation, and movement finally work together, results can compound quickly.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, craving a fresh start, or wanting a simple breakdown of what actually works in a busy season of life… this episode will give you clarity, encouragement, and a realistic roadmap to getting momentum again.
