The one thing young people and entrepreneurs have in common

Stop regulating yourself into smallness

Some powerful, high achieving people often regulate themselves into smallness, simply because their nervous system doesn’t feel safe holding the power. I took two weeks off and removed one of my biggest regulators. What came up for me wasn’t weakness. It was power. Here’s the pattern: when you’re about to outgrow your current reality, your nervous system looks for something to bring you back down. Food. Scrolling. Overworking. Drama. Over-explaining. Every time you regulate yourself down, you reinforce the identity of someone who is 'almost ready.'  Almost ready for more visibility. More money. Bigger rooms. But 'almost' is just self-suppression with an approachable smiley face. Full Volume isn’t about being loud. It’s about refusing to regulate yourself into smallness. It’s about building the nervous system capacity to hold clarity. Because once you see where you’ve been playing below your level, you can’t unsee it. Ready to stop regulating yourself into smallness? I work with women and leaders who are done operating below their standard.

Ep 11 - The same pattern at every level

The patterns holding back a senior leader are the SAME patterns keeping a solo entrepreneur stuck at £5k months when she’s built for £30k. The CEO who people pleases her board and the business owner who undercharges to keep clients comfortable?  Same loyalty.  Different context. Organisations are already investing in identity work for their leadership teams. But solo entrepreneurs are left trying to fix an identity problem with another marketing strategy. In this episode, I’m talking about why you can’t out strategy an identity ceiling and what becomes possible when you stop performing confidence and start embodying authority.

The one thing young people and entrepreneurs have in common

I’ve worked with 4,500 young people and now I work with successful entrepreneurs. And I’ve noticed they have the same trait: they experiment. Young people try on different identities without overthinking. Successful entrepreneurs do the exact same thing. But so many people have stopped experimenting. So what happened between being young and starting a business that killed this trait? Here’s the truth: you can’t just do inner work without taking action. And you can’t just take action without shifting your identity. You need BOTH at the same time. That’s the experiment. When was the last time YOU experimented? The version of you that you’re trying to become is waiting in the experiment you’re too scared to run.

Rewriting the rules: A 180 Shift in life and business with JoJo Barbosa

In this episode, I’m joined by Jojo Barbosa, known as the Audacity Queen, for a powerful conversation about what it really takes to create a 180° shift in your life and business. I’ve known Jojo personally for a number of years. We’ve worked together, and at one point she mentored me, so this conversation comes from a place of real insight, trust, and lived experience of who she is behind the brand. We explore how Jojo got into business, what compelled her to start, and the pivotal moments that required her to choose boldness over comfort. Jojo is known for taking actions many people hesitate over... or talk themselves out of entirely. Her audacity is unapologetic and intentional. We also speak openly about life beyond business, including marriage, family, motherhood, money, and the realities of evolving as a woman while building something meaningful. This is an honest, expansive conversation for anyone who knows they’re being called to move differently - and more boldly - in their next chapter.

Where Are You Leaking Authority? (My business retreat reflections)

It's been a week since I got back from Des Dobreva's business retreat where I knew I was going to work on all things business.  What I got was a huge realisation: about my children, and how they relate to my business. I realised that I don’t ask my children for enough help. I overcompensate. I refuse support. If you’re refusing help, overcompensating, trying to do it all yourself - that pattern is everywhere. So where are YOU leaking authority? In your relationships? Your boundaries? Your capacity? Find the leak. Ask for help. Stop overcompensating. Power isn’t just about what you do. It’s about what you allow. If this episode resonated, share it with someone you know is on the edge of their next level too.
