ＴＯＤＡＹ ＩＳ Ａ ＧＲＥＡＴ ＤＡＹ ＴＯ ＳＨＯＷ ＵＰ It feels heavy out there. World politics. Wild weather. Uncertainty everywhere. Anger. Grief. Helplessness. Psychologically… all of it activates the nervous system. And when that happens, the instinct is to shrink. To stay quiet. To retreat. (or get angry and not give 2 feks how that impacts anyone else) But we cannot let that win the day. Because deep inside you… there is still a wellspring of impact. influence. meaning. And it wants OUT. Today I'm hosting our signature monthly Root Voice Lab inside the Good Girl Gone Bold community. Think of it as a practice gym for your empowered voice. A place where you bring the thing that’s been sitting on your chest lately… A conversation A decision A message An offer The one your mind keeps spiraling about… The one that makes your body tighten. The one you keep delaying… avoiding… second-guessing. Bring it to the Lab. Every month I think: “I don’t really have anything pressing.” And every month… something reveals itself. TODAY it's a conversation I want to have with someone. But I can’t. It’s not mine to have. And yet… my voice still needs space to be expressed so I can find the peace I don’t yet have. Left unspoken, it becomes a simmering pot capable of sabotaging a relationship I care about. So that’s what I’m bringing to the Lab today. My voice. My truth. My peace. If you're coming, I HIGHLY recommend: Take the Root Voice Quiz inside the group first. Find your sabotaging voice. Bring that voice — and your situation — to the Lab. Bring a journal. Bring honesty. Bring courage. I’ll guide you through the rest. We’ll slow down. Reconnect with the body. Access your Root Voice. Unstick what’s been stuck. Just ONE HOUR.⏱️ And if you’ve been holding something in… Today is a powerful day to show up. Who feels that pull right now?🙋‍♀️

I used to think I needed to be super outgoing to run a great group. Always posting. Always talking. Always on camera. Over time for someone like me that gets exhausting. I’m more of an introvert, but really a mix of both. And I think that’s helped me. Instead of reacting quickly, I tend to think deeply about things. I’ll quietly mull ideas over, look at problems from different angles, and try to come up with better systems or solutions for my group members. Its my reflective side has helped me build tools, frameworks, and ideas that can help others grow their groups. Extroverts bring amazing energy to communities. Introverts often bring thoughtful structure and insight. Both styles can build great groups — just in different ways. 💬 Curious: Are you more introvert or extrovert? And how do you feel that personality has helped you grow your community?

Last week I sat on my sofa and looked at my life and genuinely believed none of it was working. My business felt pointless. My house felt like a mess. My kids were doing my head in. I was tired but I couldn't sleep properly. I woke up groggy and it took me two or three hours before my brain even switched on. I felt heavy. Sluggish. Hungry all the time. Irritable at everything. And the thoughts just kept coming. You're not good enough. You can't do this. You're a failure. You're a useless mum. Nothing you're building is going anywhere. It felt so real. Like I was finally seeing the truth about my life that I'd been avoiding. Then a few days passed. I had a really full on day. Worked hard, got loads done, went to bed tired, slept for seven hours straight. Woke up and felt... good. Clear. Calm. Like a completely different person. And I looked at the same life. Same business. Same house. Same kids. Nothing had changed. Except me. That's when it properly clicked. Those low days, where everything looks wrong and I spiral into thinking I'm broken and I can't cope and I should probably just give up on everything. Those days aren't telling me the truth. They're telling me where I am in my cycle. Because when my hormones are balanced, I'm actually quite a calm, measured person. I'm on top of things. I can work and work and work and I've got energy to spare. That version of me isn't the exception. She's the baseline. The other version, the one who wakes up groggy and can't get moving and catastrophises about literally everything. She's not the real me either. She's me with my hormones running the show. And when you add ADHD into the mix, it amplifies the whole thing. The fog gets foggier. The spiral gets faster. The low days feel lower. I'd been carrying those days around like evidence that something was fundamentally wrong with me. Turns out it was just my body doing what bodies do. And I'd lost track of the pattern because when you're in it, you genuinely believe you're like that all the time.

There's this thing called Beginner's Mind, and it's one of those concepts that sounds nice in theory but actually changes the way your body responds to everything. When you're a beginner, everything is open. You're curious, you're a sponge, you're ready to learn. But when you become the "expert"? You stop listening. You've already decided you know it. And that's where it gets interesting, because what looks like confidence is often just rigidity. I first really got this when I was teaching yoga. Every time you step onto the mat, your body is different. What I could do yesterday, I might not be able to do today. And if I go in thinking I already know what my body can do, I'm not being confident. I'm being inaccurate. I might even push myself into an injury because my mind made a decision my body didn't agree with. And it's not just a yoga thing. I see the same pattern in nervous system work. People come in having already read everything, already decided how it should work, how quickly it should work. And then if it doesn't match their expectations? They drop out after a week. It looks like giving up, but it's actually expert mind in disguise. You've already decided the ending before you've started. The bit people miss is that Beginner's Mind isn't just a nice attitude. It's a physiological state. When you approach something with curiosity and openness, you're more likely to be in that calm, connected, ventral vagal state. Your nervous system is regulated enough to actually take in new information. But when you're bracing for failure or assuming the worst? That's sympathetic activation. Your body is in protection mode before you've even begun. You can't pour water into a clenched fist. I had to sit with this myself recently. Someone I trust told me I should be charging more, and my gut said no. But I had to ask myself, is this intuition or is it fear dressed up as knowing? Because expert mind and intuition can feel really similar on the surface. Both show up as "I know the right way."
