IT'S TIME TO FIND THE "ONE" Heartbreak can be the most powerful teacher. But if we aren't aware of the lesson that beneath the pain, we will repeat the same lessons just described differently. Think about it, what grade do you think you're at when it comes to relationships? how many lessons have you passed? If you find yourself repeating the same lessons, or you keep seeing the same patterns in your relationships, chances are you haven't discovered the "one". The "one" has been within you all along The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself, you are the "one" you've been looking for.

Are you someone who struggles to share your authentic truth? Do you have a hard time opening up and being vulnerable? This inner block is due to the fear of other people judging, criticizing, or rejecting your opinion/voice In other words, you care too much about what people think. This fear of being judged results in a "play it safe" mentality in life. The world misses out on seeing the real you. Your greatness is hidden behind an identity that's trying to keep you safe.  In my latest podcast, I show you the process for breaking free of the fear of judgement so you can express the real you. For all aspiring leaders, artists, creators, and influencers this one is for you. If you're ready to go deep and identify and remove the inner blocks that are holding you back from your greatness - I have 6 places available in my group coaching program, Purpose By Design.

Josh and I have both returned to our home town of Perth, Western Australia after both spending the past 2 years away in big cities (Sydney & Toronto). In this episode, we discuss what we have noticed since spending time living in big cities and the effect they have on our mental & emotional well being. Key points: - What's underneath the noise and the distraction of our minds - Where the lack of self-love comes from - The power of self-talk - How to make the right decisions - How to process our emotions - The power of vulnerability for both men and women      

Sometimes it can be easy for self-love practices to be disguised as self-indulgence. Learning to create powerful intentions around your practices transforms these rituals into deep inner work. This creates the space to let go of emotional blocks and access deeper states of self-love. This podcast is a solo episode where I share my views on how to develop practices to let go of emotional blocks and connect with deeper parts of yourself. You can watch the video on my youtube channel below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcK-e2guyJA&t=2s
