Quite often our fears are in the way, stopping us from becoming who we want. When we learn to conquer our fears, master our mind, our body, our ability to accomplish things, and our ability to influence others, our impact and our success will be amplified in all areas of our life.
Being a lifelong introvert, I spent many years afraid of being criticized, judged, and scared of not being good enough, I chose to be ”invisible” as a way to protect myself. I had lost confidence in myself, I was full of fears and self-doubt and I was absolutely petrified by the idea of speaking in public.
I did not realize back then that it stopped me from tapping into my own power and becoming the person I wanted to become, and it also stopped me from being able to empower others through my own story.
A few years ago, I promised myself “Enough is enough!”, and embarked on an exhilarating journey to let go of my fears. My speaker reel is a snapshot of the progress and transformation I lived through, and shows how my work allows me to use the knowledge and experience I have accumulated over the years to spread my message and empower others.

Is anyone really fearless? Every time we start something new – a new career, a new relationship, a new city to live in – fear will show up.
Fear is just part of life. Fear exists to keep us safe. It is not inherently bad or good but a tool we can use to make better decisions. Fear isn’t designed to keep us inactive, but to help us act in ways that generate the results we need and want.
While we must learn to let go of the fears that have been imprinted on us and that are not ours, it is a learning opportunity to discover what we are made of.
So it’s not about being fearless, it is about being brave learning to take the actions to face our fears so they do not have power on us anymore!
As women, we tend to look after everyone else, and way too often, the last person on our mind, is ourselves. Finding “ME” time is not selfish, it is critical to our overall well-being – physical and emotional.
Get a real understanding of the five reasons why you feel guilty taking care of yourself. Learn how to overcome them and how to shift your thinking and behaviors.
To live our life to the fullest and be around the people we love and care about, taking care of ourselves is not a luxury, it is an essential.
Let’s teach our daughters and sons, they all equally deserve to be well taken care of.

How we lead ourselves will shape our life, our career, our family and will determine our impact. It will greatly influence how we lead others. So taking
Self-Leadership very personally is a must and requires understanding the power of the five steps that lead to Self-Mastery.
When we learn to master our mind, our body, our ability to accomplish things, and our ability to influence others, our impact and our success will be amplified in all areas of our life.
When we fully embrace Self-Leadership, we can motivate and inspire excellent performance, create an atmosphere of trust and openness and remove barriers and obstacles to the success of the team and the organization.
Too many people believe that to achieve great work, they must focus single-mindedly on their goals, at the expense of the things that matter in their personal lives, such as their family, their health, or their engagement with their communities.
What I have found is when we harness the passion and power from the various parts of our lives and bring them together, it creates a life of harmony, wholeness and fulfillment, bringing more happiness, love and success in every area of our life.
Avoiding burn-out requires the adoption of an on-going self-care strategy, that is the intentional care of our mental, physical, and emotional health, through everyday practices and activities.
When we fail to manifest abundance, the most common reason is that we’re unknowingly sabotaging our own intentions.
This is usually caused by an underlying belief or fear about money, we may not even be aware of it.
Four questions we want to ask ourselves:
How do we know if we have money blocks and where do they come from?
What is our money mindset and what beliefs do we have about money?
How do we break down our old beliefs that are in our way?
Why would we want to have Financial Abundance?
