Have you ever looked back at an old photo or video and thought "Wow who even was that version of me?"  I’ve been sitting with that a lot lately and wondering can I really pull off this next big reinvention? 

In today’s episode of the podcast I’m pulling back the curtain on what it feels like when self doubt hits hard. Even when you’ve got the runs on the board. Even when you know your stuff.

If you’ve ever thought what if I can’t do this this one’s for you.

Self-Doubt & Reinvention What If I Can’t Do This

In this reflective episode, Nicola takes you on a literal and metaphorical detour straight back to her childhood home, where her biggest audience was a paddock full of waving crops. What started as a simple drive turned into a powerful reminder of how our perceptions shape our reality, how childhood dreams plant the seeds of purpose, and why joy matters more than we sometimes realise.

If you’ve ever looked at your life and thought, “Is this what I signed up for?” this one is for you.

Listen now to explore:

    * How our memories and reality don’t always line up (and why that’s okay)

    * Why joy is a non-negotiable when it comes to doing meaningful work

    * How to reconnect with what you really wanted before the world told you to tone it down

    A full-circle moment that proves those fence-post performances were never wasted

Memory Lane

You know that moment when something hits you like a freight train and you realise for a FACT that "this can’t go on"?

In this episode, I’m sharing a few of those moments. From avoiding an uncomfortable ask to calling out behaviour that crossed the line, and a brutal three-way mirror moment in a London changeroom that left me reeling (and ready to change everything).

These weren’t just bumps in the road. They were wake-up calls. And they became the exact fuel I needed to make bold, powerful decisions that shifted my everything.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign… this might be it.

The Time For Serious Change

Ever had a day where you were smashing through the to-do list, only to look up and realise you've completely skipped the one thing that keeps you grounded? Same. 

In this episode, I’m sharing a personal (and slightly chaotic) story about missing my morning walk, hyper-focusing on tasks, and realising I’d completely lost sight of the bigger picture.

From roller derby lessons to writing my own eulogy (yep, really), this is your invitation to stop staring at your feet and lift your gaze to where you’re actually heading in life and business. Because your feet already know what to do. It’s your vision that needs a check-in.

So... are you walking just to walk, or are you actually heading somewhere that matters?

Your feet know what they're doing

In this episode, Nicola shares the behind-the-scenes of her first big event - Sales & Marketing Spy School - where she thought she’d completely lost the audience. Blank faces, self-doubt, and a $40K roll of the dice had her questioning everything. 

But what came next was a reminder every entreprneuer needs: Just because it FEELS off, doesn’t mean it is. 

You’ll learn why preparation matters, how to bounce back from the inner critic, and why the “boring” stuff you know could be groundbreaking for someone else. 

If you’ve ever walked off stage or out of a meeting wondering if you tanked, this episode is for you.

The world is ready for your brand of awesome. Let’s go.

The 40K Gamble

Ever felt like the universe is messing with you right before you're about to do something epic? Yeah, me too. In this episode, I’m sharing some real and raw stories.. from escaping a violent past, rebuilding from Mean Girls backlash, being sued (yep, really), getting sick, breaking my wrist, to finding my way back to power... again and again.

This episode is part storytime, part success psychology, and full truth bomb. We dive into Gay Hendricks’ The Big Leap, upper limit problems, and the sneaky ways we sabotage our own success. Whether you're chasing a promotion, a new client, a dream launch, or your next level of leadership, this is your invitation to get honest, get clear, and get moving.

You’ll walk away knowing:

    How to spot your own upper limit problem (ULP)

    The sneaky difference between anxiety and self-sabotage

    Why breakdowns often show up before your biggest breakthroughs

    How to say: “I’m ready for this”... and mean it

Let’s flip the script on fear and take that leap together. You in?

Upper Limit Problems

If you’ve ever found yourself lying on the couch thinking, “I should be doing more… but I just can’t,” this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m unpacking what really happens when driven, successful humans hit a dip in motivation—and why it’s often a sign of deeper things like burnout, misalignment, or a shift in purpose. This is something I’ve seen again and again with my clients… and lived myself.

I’m walking you through:

* The real reason motivation disappears after early success

 * How to reignite momentum without relying on adrenaline or burnout

 * Why movement (literal and energetic) is the secret to motivation

 * The clarity-action loop: why waiting to feel “ready” is holding you back

  * The hidden link between burnout, boredom, and emotional exhaustion (especially for high-capacity people)

Whether you’re in a season of scaling, shifting, or rebuilding your business, this episode will help you understand your patterns, reset your energy, and reconnect with the reason you started in the first place.

Because this isn’t just about pushing harder, it’s about aligning smarter, acting with purpose, and building a business that energises you instead of draining you.

What to Do When the Drive Disappears: Momentum, Motivation & Burnout

If you’ve ever made a big decision.. maybe started a new offer, launched a bold idea, pivoted your brand, or gone for that next level, and then suddenly noticed weird energy from the people around you… you are not imagining it.

In this episode, I’m talking about what actually happens when you’re on the edge of an uplevel. From personal experience and years of coaching high-performing humans, here’s what I know: the moment your frequency rises, your world reacts. And sometimes, that reaction looks like resistance, sabotage, and people coming out of the woodwork trying to pull you back down.

I unpack:

    * What’s really going on when the people around you start getting weird or unsupportive

    * Why building your internal armour is non-negotiable as you grow

    * The energetic truth behind visibility and why some people can’t handle your rise

    * The “crabs in a bucket” dynamic that shows up when you’re stepping into more influence, more income, or more impact

    How to hold your ground, protect your energy, and lead anyway

This one’s for the experts, coaches, and creators doing visibility on purpose... not for fame, not just for cash, but because you’re here to help people, to create change, and to lead with integrity.

Here's your reminder that when the crabs start clawing, you’re probably on the right track.

Crabs, Energy & Uplevelling: What Really Happens When You’re About to Rise

So many of us hold ourselves back, not because we don’t have the skills, the smarts, or the strategy, but because we’re afraid of what people might think.

In this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes to one of my most uncomfortable “visibility” moments...getting completely humiliated in a training room and battling the inner voice that told me I wasn’t stylish, bold, or “enough” to wear the damn boots I’d packed. Spoiler alert: I wore the boots anyway.

Here’s what we’re talking about:

    * Why it's completely normal to link new concepts to familiar ideas—and how that actually supports learning and confidence

    * The wild stories we make up about how we’ll be judged (and how to rewrite them)

    * The real reason people hesitate to show up, speak up, and step out—and how to overcome it

    * A mantra that changed everything for me: “It’s not my business what anyone else thinks of me.”

    * How to move through fear, stay curious, and keep showing up—even when you feel like a human pretzel

Whether you’re holding back on launching something bold, booking that photoshoot, applying for the role, or simply showing up more visibly in your brand, this episode is your permission slip to stop playing small.

Because let’s be honest… you can’t be unforgettable if you’re trying to blend in.

It’s Not Your Business What They Think of You

Let’s be honest… most people don’t need more information. What they need is the guts to implement it.

In this episode, I’m pulling apart one of the biggest roadblocks I see in high-level entrepreneurs and experts: the “I know this already” mindset. It shows up everywhere... from business trainings to personal development events to team meetings and strategy calls and it’s costing people growth, income, and impact.

I talk about:

    * What actually happens when you think you know something, but still aren’t doing it

    * Why “I know this” is often code for fear, burnout, or lack of commitment

    * How to reset your mindset and show up to every opportunity with a powerful blank-slate energy

    * The truth about personalisation and why strategy only works when you tailor it to YOU

    * My personal lessons from roller derby, keynote speaker school, and Unleash the Power Within

If you’ve been wondering why you’re not seeing the results you say you want, this is your gut-check moment. Because learning isn’t enough. Insight isn’t action. And you don’t get to claim “expert” status if you’re not walking the talk.

Come into this one with a mindset of curiosity and let’s find the thing that will actually move the needle for you.
