People always say they're "just surviving" parenthood. But think about it, how sad is that? Do you really want to "just survive" 10-20% of your life? Surviving is about getting the basics: food, water, love, connection etc., but thriving is about being present enough to enjoy it.
This podcast is more of a rant and a battle cry than a "how-to", because your how-to will be different to mine. I share how I'm preparing for the birth of our second child and what I'm doing differently after my first-time parent experience of postpartum rage and depression. There are 3 things I'm certain of:

You're never going to see the success you imagine until you're aware of this one success-limiting concept: upper limits. Do you ever achieve something great, then something goes wrong in another area of your life? Or do you hit a certain level and feel like you can't push any further even though you really want to?
Today's episode dives right into this phenomenon and the concept behind it that makes a world of sense! If you can understand this concept (which you will in 10 minutes time!), you can take the ceiling off the level of success, happiness and contentment you're capable of experiencing in your life.

Today's episode explores the divide between the "be yourself" mentality that millennials and gen Z have been raised with, and the behaviours / personality types expected to exist within older businesses and generations.
Your personal brand is how you want people to see you, and although it can be intentionally curated, it needs to line up with your natural skills and traits so you don't end up "faking it" (which will lead to burn out and exhaustion).

The world seems to favour those who shout about themselves. BUT, what if you're simply not one of those people? How can you get noticed if you're a quiet achiever?
Your relationship with how you share your achievements and wins started in childhood and probably still affects you today. Were you encouraged to share your wins, or hide them from fear of being judged or ridiculed? I share how being called "Little Miss Perfect" in primary school has stuck with me for life. The more you step into your power, the more you trigger other people.
In this episode I walk you through 3 practical ways you can share your brilliance that can still feel authentic to you. It doesn't have to feel braggy or gross, the goal is to feel good about what you've achieved.
You don't need to be a loud achiever, you need to be a strategic achiever, and this episode will show you how.
