Is fear blocking you?
Overcoming your fears
When I look at my children all I can see is limitless potential. I can see everything they are going to be. But the thing that’s going to stop them, the one thing that’s going to stop them “becoming” who they’re meant to be and what they’re here for, is really simple…it’s fear. Fear. All fear is, when we break it down, it’s just a thought! Where does fear come from, what causes fear? It’s a thought that we’re not good enough. It’s a thought that I’m not worthy, it’s a thought that it’ll ever happen for me, it's a thought that it can happen for her but it’s not for me. All of these fears and judgements are things from our childhood and trapped emotions, from thought processes that we have had from childhood. Is this the mindset that you want for yourself and for your children?
If we always think the same thing, we’re creating a...
Stop minimising yourself to make others feel better
Dance like nobody's watching!
You are the role model for your children. Think about that for a minute. Are you minimising yourself to make others feel better? Are you hiding your light? Are you being authentic and true to yourself, and honest with yourself about what you want? You get to inspire your child by being true to yourself and living to your fullest expression, every day, and I’m here to help you make the most of it. You have one shot to raise a child, you don’t get a second chance. This is it. Before age 7 your children are developing a lens of how they see the world that they’ll use to run the rest of their lives on a 95% unconscious basis.
Be honest with yourself about what you want
Therefore, because 95% of your behaviour right now is happening on that unconscious basis, the majority of your parenting is just somebody else’s story that you have chosen to accept as fact, and that is now just playing...
The courage to change your life
In this space we talk about mental health and emotional health, we talk about raising wholehearted children, we talk about the courage to change your life. I want to talk about the opportunity and the responsibility that you have as an adult, and as a parent, to shape your child’s mind, and to show them by your actions how to get courage and confidence. If any of you know any about the work that I do, I'm on a mission to impact a generation of children to live to their full potential, to become wholehearted, to help them have a childhood that perhaps they don't have to recover from as so many of us have to do as adults.
How to change your life
The way I do that is a unique approach, so most of the work that I do is on the personal transformation and the undoing of the adult’s thought processes because when we change the way we think, we change the way we feel and that changes the way we behave. Then what I do is use increased attachment and...
Confidence is knowing mistakes are part of the learning process
Do you have low self esteem based on fear of failure?
Want to know how to boost your child’s confidence? Show them that failure and making mistakes are just a part of the learning process, and you will build their self esteem. In my programs for building confidence in children through music, I talk a lot about building confidence through being the model not the mirror. The aim is not to reflect back but to stand in our values and model the example to our children. See this as a challenge in your life and your parenting, you can and you will rise to it!
Building confidence
When Freddie Mercury sang ‘We Are The Champions’ he was saying in front of the whole world what he wanted. And nothing anyone ever created or achieved was gained without failure, perseverance, self-belief and by getting up each time you fall, and going again. Will you make mistakes? Yes. Will you fail big time? Yes.
The key is to find the gold in your...
Installing the belief that you are worthy
Our belief systems (which drive our thoughts, which trigger emotions, that drive behaviour) are pretty much fully formed by the time of age seven.
What if we flip the transformation and healing model around and start from birth?
What if we were being hugely intentional in order to create a lens that will create a positive self-image, and make sure that positive self-worth, positive self-belief is already installed?
That's why I work with parents of under-sevens, because this is where we have the most impact.

Is fear stopping you?
Fear of failure is what stops us every time; fear of stepping into your genius, fear that you won't be enough, and that's what it usually comes down to each and every time.
What would you do if you weren't afraid, or if you felt the fear and did it anyway? What would you do differently if you were living in your fullest expression, and how different would your life look like if you were?

Were you brought up to be 'a good girl'?
Were you brought up to be 'a good girl', to inhibit your feelings, repress your self expression and constantly minimise yourself in order to get people to like you or not feel threatened by your confidence? This sets such a destructive precedent for our children. In order to break the chain of this conditioning it's vital that we're the model, not the mirror. We can show our children how to live to their fullest expression, and shine.

Confidence for our kids starts with us
Confidence is key to living our dreams - so what is it, how do we get it, and how do we instil it in our kids? Watch and deep dive into the need to stop minimising ourselves, to acknowledge our true feelings, and to wear that red lipstick or feathery earrings on the school run...because confidence starts with us (and you never know who you'll inspire just by being yourself)!

Focus On Your Child's Strengths to Build Their Self-Esteem
Self esteem and self confidence in children are strengthened so much by telling them what they've done well, and all the good things about them, on a regular basis. Focus on the good and watch it grow.

Perfection is a cage
We're constantly bombarded with images of perfection, but does telling ourselves we need to be perfect help us develop...or just keep us stuck in our heads?
