Founder. Mentor. Mother. Creative.
Like many of us, I spent the first chapter of my life following a script I didn’t write.
I mastered the role of the "High Achiever." I learned early on that if I worked harder, moved faster, and kept everyone around me comfortable, I would be safe. I would be successful. I would be "good."
And for a long time, the script worked. It built my career. It earned applause. It created a life that looked enviable from the outside.
But eventually, the roles started to feel like a cage.
I reached a point where the strategies that got me there, the over-functioning, the people-pleasing, the constant striving, were the exact things keeping me from going higher.
I realised I was building a legacy with hands that were too tired to hold it.
I didn’t need another business strategy. I didn’t need better time management. I needed to burn the script.
I had to unlearn the habit of abandoning myself to please the room. I had to learn how to lead not for the applause, but for the alignment.
