You don’t need more confidence.

You need freedom.

Most women chasing confidence are chasing the wrong thing. What you’re really craving is the freedom to be fully, unapologetically YOU - without filtering, performing, or pretending.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why confidence is a byproduct - not the goal - and how to step into radical self-trust that makes you magnetic.


Here’s what we dive into:

Why I’m not “confident” (and w...

Most women don’t have a confidence problem, they have a victim problem.

You’ve been telling yourself “I’m not good enough,” “I don’t know enough,” or “Who am I to do this?”

Let’s get real - none of that is humble. It’s a distraction. And it’s keeping you broke, invisible, and burnt out. This episode is the loving bitch slap you didn’t know you needed.

I’m breaking down how the victim mindset is silently wrecking your power, your prese...

This is a super raw AF real moment I recorded as I had to pull over as I couldn't contain it anymore. I was having what I call a "gratitude attack"

Like the opposite of a panic attack howver just as full on. I vowed when I started my business that I would take you on the journey, the process of 'becoming' and THIS is one of those HUGE moments for me.

Thank you for being here, supporting and most of all witnessing me. I love and appr...

Here’s the truth: More followers won’t grow your business. A deeper connection with the people already watching you will.

In this episode, I’m sharing how I went from 1,000 followers and $150K in debt… to a 7-figure brand, sold-out book tours, TED Talks, and a fanbase that rides hard. All without going viral.

If you’re tired of chasing likes, views, and algorithms, this one’s for you.

Most women in business think their problem is marketing. Nope. It’s messaging.

Most of us walk through life thinking we have time.

Time to chase that dream, start that business, book that trip, tell that person we love them.

But my friend… time isn’t guaranteed.

Last week, I was the sickest I’ve ever been in my life. Flat on my back, unable to move, wondering if I’d even get better.

And while I was in bed recovering, I found out that my beautiful friend, Rachel Luna, had passed away. She was young, vibrant, full...

Most creative women in business aren’t broke because they’re not talented. They’re broke because they’re scattered.

This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at why powerful, visionary women stay stuck and how to finally fix it.

I brought my husband Hamish on the mic, because let’s be honest: he’s the real reason The Queen of Confidence became what it is today.

Sis, ever feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world?

Like you’re the one holding your house, your business, your family - and your nervous system together?

Same.

In this episode, I’m sharing the real, raw truth about what happens when we—women—slip into “protector mode.”

When we become the man of the house... even when we’re married to one.

They fill every space with noise, distractions, and chatter because sitting with yourself is confronting.

But what if the real magic happens in the stillness?

In this episode, I’m sharing what I’ve learned about silence, presence, and the deep discomfort that comes from simply being. From spa days in Melbourne to five-day silent retreats, I’ve come to understand that quiet isn’t empty, it’s full of tr...

Too many women say they want more, but aren’t moving like it.
