The day it all came together…

I did it. I fucking did it.

A handful of weeks earlier, I had the idea for a 12-month mastermind for women entrepreneurs.
I’d already proven to myself that I could sell and deliver high-ticket in the Martial Arts space the year before with my 5-month success accelerator. But this time, I wanted to pivot into the female entrepreneur market.

My plan was simple:
Fill 8 spots in my mastermind by running two in-person “Let’s Do Lunch” events at an iconic seaside hotel. A workshop built straight from my mastermind framework, paired with a three-course meal and a glass of wine to break up the day.

Fast forward.

I’m standing on the rooftop of that same hotel, about to record a YouTube video on day one of the mastermind.

Seven women had enrolled.

I had good, better and best goals and landed at one off that “best” target. More than enough to prove the strategy had worked.

And as I stood there looking out over the water, with the camera rolling… the tears came.

This was a $200K launch. More money than I had ever made in my life at that point. My biggest launch before this? $30K.

The tears weren’t about the money but about what it took to stand there.

The strategy part had been easy; I have a knack for understanding the market and for creating environments where sales occur.

The hard part? The voices in my head.

“Who the fuck am I to charge this?”

“What if I can’t deliver?”

From the outside, people look at me and think I’m fearless. That this all comes naturally to me…that it’s easy.

It’s not.

I feel the same fear and doubt as everyone else. The only difference? I refuse to let those fears stop me.

I lean on perspective because life has given me plenty:

Childhood sexual abuse, I overcame.

Domestic violence that taught me how to read the room.

A fighting career that challenged me to face my fears.

A 5th-degree black belt that allowed me to lead powerfully.

Divorces (more than once) that proved to me that I was a woman who valued herself and refused to settle.

Running TKD schools as a female head instructor, as a single mum (my choice), hitting the mat to teach classes one week after giving birth to my daughter. This taught me that even under the most trying of circumstances, I could back myself to show up for my commitments.

Being dragged through the family court as my ex tried to take my children from me and watching debt climb as I fought showed me strength I never knew I had.

You know…the USUAL…the stuff that most women go through in their lifetimes. My perspective has always been…what have I got to lose?

Compared to those moments, a launch was never going to break me.

That rooftop wasn’t about celebrating $200K. The money was just the validation of an idea I trusted in.

The real win was this: I trusted myself when it would’ve been easier to shrink because what I had been doing was working ok.

That mastermind and the ones to come didn’t just shift my income.

That first mastermind changed my identity and shaped me into the mentor I am today, one with an abundance of lived experience.

What I want you to hear today is this: you can start from ANYWHERE and create rapid success.

That mastermind didn’t just make me $200K. It made me resilient, resourceful, and unstoppable. It taught me how to fix broken strategies, how to regroup when things fall apart, and how to climb back stronger every single time.

And now, I mentor women like YOU to do the same inside my mastermind.

If I can do it with all my doubts, scars, and messy chapters, so can you.

S.H.E. Mastermind isn’t just another program; it’s an apprenticeship in how to become a resilient, resourceful and wealthy coach with a legacy brand that stands the test of time.

Entrepreneurship can be very lonely and soul-destroying on your own, inside a group like S.H.E Mastermind…your challenges feel like a rite of passage….another badge earned on your way to success beyond your wildest imagination.

And your successes? Celebrated. Those women standing shoulder to shoulder with you inside the mastermind? Those ladies will celebrate you wholeheartedly because they get it.
So…S.H.E Mastermind….it WILL change your life.
