Hey Reader,

A few weeks ago, I had a metaphorical punch in the chops.

Nothing earth-shattering, just a small thing. But it showed me two things in glorious technicolour:

  1. If I put out an apologetic vibe and keep shrinking myself, I will get sidelined and treated as lesser than I am because I’m “no trouble.”
  2. What I do for and with my clients isn’t just cool, it’s crucial. It’s important. It’s what I’m here for. And I am very, very good at it.

So I stood up and got serious about all sorts of things including but not limited to my core message (I help you turn your voice and mission into a movement via the medium of books), my offers, my website, a whole host of gubbins behind the scenes, and putting myself on stages and platforms where I can shift people’s perceptions about who they are and what they’re here to do.

I barely have words to express how exciting this feels and how different the conversations I’m already having are. The books that are coming out of the work I do with people are remarkable. Really, truly remarkable.

And Sophie Lee’s Beyond Palatable is one of them.

Sophie’s book officially launches in March with a big bash in London but a few days before that she’s running an online marathon called Unapologetic Voices.

Monday, March 2, 2026.

It’s free to attend, there are 35+ incredible speakers — I’m one of them — and I thoroughly recommend you sign up and bookmark the speakers you want to hear.

My talk closes out the day at 7pm and I’ll be speaking on how you can turn your mission into a movement, why books create a kind of magic digital marketing cannot touch, and how to start using your voice to create real change in the world and in your business.

Get your free ticket here and make sure you save 7-8pm and come and see me!

TTFN,

And, “Jeepers how are they not dead!?” at the luge. And the skeleton. And the high-speed downhill skiing shenanigans. I’ve been fully obsessed with the ice dancing and figure skating (always am because it’s in the same universe as aerial arts) and one of my favourite things is to watch people who...

Today, though, I’m talking to a woman whose book is coming out in May. Samantha Harman is hosting The Gathering and she’s making the topic of her book, Just Get Dressed, the star of the show. She and I are taking to the stage to talk about it and it got me thinking about the tears I’ve shed this week. Some of...

Hey Reader, Sitting on the sofa, heaving great sobs from my chest, I am ugly-crying as I watch something on screen that I’ve never seen before. Season 1, episode 1, of The Good Doctor. We’re only a few minutes in and the main character is in an airport. He wrings his hands compulsively as everything around him pushes in at him: sounds, lights, smells, peoplepeoplepeople and there’s somewhere he has to be. The cacophony is...
