#38 Self Mastery First Business Second and Why You Are The Bottleneck In Your Business

#42 FROM “YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW BAD FINANCIALLY I AM” TO $19K IN 7 DAYS : WHAT SHIFTED ?

In this episode of Spill the Tea, Nicky shared how she shifted from feeling stuck, overthinking, and undercharging to reclaiming her value, with a major breakthrough around money, self-worth, and being visible as a coach. After a vulnerable group call and follow-up mindset and shadow work, she changed her approach, attracted better opportunities, and made $19,096 within a week. ================================================================= In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share : 00:01:09 – 00:11:19 | Nicky’s identity, evolution, and coaching style Nicky explains that she has spent much of her life carrying high energy without fully understanding its impact, and that her business focuses on helping people move from a “warrior” state of overthinking and stress into a more empowered way of being.]Kirsty reflects on Nicky’s rapid personal changes over time, noting that she tends to shed old versions of herself quickly because she is highly coachable and willing to act on feedback. 00:11:19 – 00:20:06 | Energy shift, money, and rapid results We describe how a significant energetic shift led directly to tangible business results, including Nicky earning $19,096 within a week.Before that total, Nicky had already posted publicly that she was drawing a line in the sand, no longer willing to undercharge or operate from a place of enabling.We emphasizes that the shift happened quickly: Nicky made about $3,000 first, then $6,000 by that night, and then the total jumped to around $20,000 the next day, demonstrating the momentum that followed the internal change. 00:20:06 – 00:32:43 | Money patterns and inherited beliefs The conversation turns to family money stories, where Nicky identifies a formative message from her father: her brother was portrayed as someone who held onto money, while Nicky was framed as generous, giving, and self-sacrificing.Nicky connects this to a deeper unconscious belief that being “good” meant giving her services away cheaply and giving away money, which made having money feel uncomfortable or even morally questionable.Kirsty points out that Nicky’s instinct is to give money away, and that this is less about logic and more about an ingrained identity pattern that has to be rewritten. 00:32:43 – 00:42:31 | Bali, healing, and next phase of growth Nicky explains that her current trip to Bali is about going deep into healing and allowing her body and heart to catch up with the conscious changes she has already made.Her planned practices include a massage, sound/light healing, a cellular regeneration session, and a death meditation, which she says she needs in order to grieve the version of herself that was always trying to be loved and approved of. 00:42:31 – 00:46:40 | Future goals and closing reflections Nicky states that her vision for the end of the year is to be a millionaire, to be on stage speaking to thousands of people, and to have around 100 people in her container.The episode closes with mutual appreciation: Kirsty praises Nicky’s authenticity and coaching ability, and Nicky says the container with Kirsty and Beau has been game changing because she feels loved even when she is “naughty” or messy. 👇 Your Turn: What mindset shift has had the biggest impact on your business or personal growth?

#41 WHAT HAPPENED IN JAPAN CHANGED EVERYTHING

In this episode of Spill the Tea, We discussed on our recent Japan trip, including a mastermind retreat in Niseko, family time in Hakuba, and memorable experiences like snow, Disneyland, and a sumo wrestling challenge. We shared that the trip sparked a new business direction: launching a certification program to train breathwork facilitators and transformational leaders with a stronger focus on confidence, leadership, business, and practical client acquisition. ================================================================= In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share : 00:01:14 – 00:05:44 | Japan Retreat and Travel Experiences The episode opens with a recap of the WeBeSuccess mastermind retreat in Niseko, Japan, describing it as an amazing snow experience and framing retreats as a way to combine travel with personal and business growth.The hosts explain that the retreat focused on marketing, storytelling, and repositioning businesses, including creative work to rebuild and clarify brand direction. 00:05:44 – 00:10:39 | New Business Vision: Breathwork Certification While the family was at Disneyland, Kirsty says she developed a new business idea and wrote the full plan for certifying breathwork facilitators in their own modality.She connects this decision to the difficult industry backlash they experienced in 2022 and says she made a personal commitment to become a stronger leader and to help others do the same.The goal of the new program is to produce more confident, self-assured breathwork facilitators and transformational specialists. 00:10:39 – 00:18:30 | Program Launch and Structure The certification is announced as launching on June 22, with the first intake already close to sold out.The program will teach breathwork coaching, shadow work, leadership, meditation, manifestation, and business-building skills.It is structured as seven weeks online plus one week in Bali, and participants are expected to build their brand and client base during the program so they can finish with paying clients ready. 👇 Your Turn: What mindset shift has had the biggest impact on your business or personal growth?

#40 Cancelled Flights, Lost Luggage & Travelling with Kids: Everything Went Wrong Fast

In this episode of Spill the Tea, We discussed our recent stressful travel to Bali with delayed/cancelled flights and lost luggage, emotional and nervous-system experiences during time away, the importance of self-care and regulation for high achievers, and strategies (breathwork, hypnotherapy, mindset, life audits) to prevent burnout and improve resilience. ================================================================= In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share : 00:01:54 – 00:08:54 | Travel disruptions and logistics Flight disruptions: Multiple delays, a long wait on the tarmac(s), a cancellation late at night, and overnight waiting at the gate. The family experienced airport sleep on the floor and app confusion about rebooked flights.Baggage lost then flown ahead: At Taipei, checked luggage was unloaded and later discovered to have been sent on the airline’s next flight—leaving the family without clothes for ~48 hours until bags were reunited. 00:08:54 – 00:23:16 | Emotional Impact & Safety Immediate relief in Bali: Upon arriving at their villa, Kirsty reports a substantial drop in nervous-system activation—10.5 hours of restorative sleep and a sudden sense of safety.Houston experience: Kirsty described feeling unsafe and on edge while in Houston (an incident at 2 a.m.; preference for hotels over Airbnbs in the U.S.), which amplified protective maternal vigilance. 00:23:16 – 00:39:28 | Mindset, Habits & Leadership Themes Workaholism as avoidance: Both hosts framed chronic busyness as a primary avoidance strategy for unresolved trauma—“keeping busy” functions as a coping mechanism for high achievers.Strategy for happiness: Happiness and dysfunction are both described as having “recipes” or strategies—specific, learnable steps that compound into outcomes (e.g., mindset + breathwork + nervous-system regulation = resilient functioning).Mindset training: Kirsty emphasizes mindset as a muscle that must be trained continuously, combining cognitive/behavioral strategies with somatic tools to shift state rapidly.Concept of “recipes” or strategies for outcomes: happiness, wealth, or depression each have repeatable patterns to follow/change. 👇 Your Turn: What mindset shift has had the biggest impact on your business or personal growth?

#39 Making $300k In A Side Business Was The Worst Thing We Could Of Done

In this episode of Spill the Tea, We discussed the recent travel experiences (Dubai, USA,Bali), reflections on identity and environment influencing growth, the challenges and lessons from launching a Done For You digital agency (including hiring issues, team failures, and closing the business after generating $300,000), and personal insights on leadership, delegation, and prioritising health and wealth for the year. ================================================================== In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share : 00:01:23 – 00:16:52 |TRAVEL, FAMILY, AND PERSONAL PRIORITIES Dubai mastermind retreat: transformative experience for many attendees; attendees who previously felt they couldn’t travel (or didn’t feel they’d belong) experienced rapid change and confidence shifts.

#38 Self Mastery First Business Second and Why You Are The Bottleneck In Your Business

In this episode of Spill the Tea, We discussed love and connection, emphasizing reassurance, emotional intelligence, and the importance of listening to create healthy relationships.We share personal examples of overcoming insecurity and how reassurance and consistent support strengthened their partnership. We highlight client and community wins (Kelly, Mick, Amy) to illustrate how commitment, clarity, and action lead to rapid business growth. ================================================================== In this episode of Spill the Tea, we share : 00:01:50 – 00:19:59 | WHAT IS LOVE / RELATIONSHIP DYNAMICS Love described as an indescribable connection and deep understanding where two people don’t need to over-explain.Emphasis on listening, emotional intelligence, and creating safe conversational space to avoid miscommunication and recurring conflict.Reassurance viewed as a “superpower” — both commit to offering it to each other. 00:19:59 – 00:32:04 | COMMUNITY & CLIENT WINS Kellie: Joined We Breathe Success, implemented “Coach The Calendar,” had her biggest cash month and began paying off her investment within two weeks.Mick : Took risks, attended events, persisted; re-signed nine people to his mentorship; credited community and accountability.Ami and other clients: Examples of members who joined after hesitation and experienced transformation (firing draining clients, gaining aligned clients, increased happiness).Importance of being in the right room — surrounding yourself with people taking action leads to faster growth. 00:32:04 – 00:41:20 | MINDSET, IDENTITY, AND FAILURE AS GROWTH Mindset barriers identified: fear of judgment, fear of failure, fear of success; reframing failure as growth opportunity (encourage partial failure to learn).Repetition and consistent action build confidence; early naivety can drive initial growth, but systems and leadership identity must evolve for higher revenue levels. 00:41:20 – 00:46:17 | SELF-MASTERY AND ENERGY MANAGEMENT Two controllable things: mindset and nervous system regulation.
