How the f**k did I get so lucky with the people I get to work with?

Seriously.

Working with someone like isn't just "another job" for me.

Rosie is a powerhouse doing deeply meaningful work with the Psychology Business School, and getting to sit down with her, dig into the core of why she does what she does, and translate that real-world genius into a brand strategy was an absolute dream.

When clients trust me enough to drop the mask, look at their work deeply, and let me capture who they really are... that’s a dream come true for me.

Reading words like this from someone I respect so much brings nothing but gratitude:

"𝘼𝙙𝙖𝙨 𝙙𝙞𝙙 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣 𝙢𝙮 𝙥𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙤𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚. 𝙎𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙢𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙡𝙮 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙮 𝙄 𝙙𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙄 𝙙𝙤 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙘𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙜𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙧𝙚𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙢𝙮 𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙮... 𝙄 𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝘽𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘿𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙡𝙤𝙥𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙙𝙤𝙘𝙪𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙨𝙝𝙚 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙢𝙚 𝙖𝙡𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙚."

Rosie, working with you was a total privilege. Thank you for trusting me with your brand story! ❤

If you're ready to stop just taking up space online and actually build a brand that feels 100% true to you, my door is always open... Well, it will be open from mid Oct onwards, so now's a great time to get booked in ☀

Ever wonder how many "5 steps to 10k months" posts you have to scroll past before you lose the will to live? 🙃

Because honestly, I'm exhausted just looking at them.

Here's the no bull talk: you are brilliant at what you do.
You deliver incredible results in the real world, yet online, people scroll right past you to hire competitors who have half your talent, a fraction of your experience, but make twice the f**king noise.

You’re tired of it. And frankly, it pi**es me off on your behalf too.

The problem isn't your expertise.
It’s the massive disconnect between who you are in person and how you show up online.

The real shift happens when you move away from just "showing up" to tick a box and start being Visibly Authentic.

When your brand online finally reflects your real-world brilliance, you stop chasing. People stop guessing, they start trusting you, and suddenly you're impossible to ignore.

(Also, a huge shoutout to the one & only Duncan Adams here. As a fellow brand specialist he knows the power of matching your visual presence to your actual authority. Looking sharp, Duncan!😍)

If you’re ready to call time on the nonsense and start looking like the expert you actually are, let's sort it.

Drop me a DM with the word AUDIT (Or here in the comments) and I’ll send over my "Authority Audit": 4 quick brain teasers to align your real-world genius with your brand story.
Zero excuses to NOT get it right! 😎

Back to my 'gratitude Friday' to end any week on a high..

Working with Nicky McCrudden (feel free to go find her on LinkedIn) was one of those privileges I keep experiencing.. I am sorry if I use this word a lot, but honestly! Come spend a day in my shoes, seeing these epic women through my eyes (and lens) is something else!!!!

I don't think I'd be able to wake up every day & do what I do if it wasn't for the inspirational humans I get to hang out with, even if just for a day or so..

Thank you Nicky for these kind words and for giving me your trust & cookies 🍪 (Even if mine were more impressive 😄)

"It's about who you are, not what you do.."
Ok, maybe it is a little about what you do as well, otherwise why are we all hanging around Social media like we have nothing better to do?!

There are many ways for you to show up online:
🖤 You can use your one & only headshot your friend took when you were in your 20's 🤭

🖤 You can use that epic shot of you looking so stiff & uncomfortable, your smile looks like a reaction to a very bad story.

🖤 Or you can bring out that personality that makes your clients choose you over & over again... It tells all your other followers what it feels like to be working with you (Hint - It's got nothing to do with your logo or your prices).

Just going to leave some visuals here to speak way better than my words 🖤

Oh, and if you fancy some yourself - My books are closing till end of Sep, so either get in touch for Oct onwards or grab that one last spot for a shoot this month ☀️

I am not the right fit for everyone, and that is exactly as it should be!

When you work with a brand and marketing strategist, alignment is everything.

If you are looking for superficial tactics, quick shortcuts, or a hiding place, I will absolutely disappoint you.

Swipe through the slides to see exactly why you should NOT hire me.

If you manage to get to the end and find yourself nodding along instead,
We should definitely talk. 🖤

Can't think of a better compliment than when they come back for more 🥰

I met Rosie 3 years ago for her first brand shoot. It was such a fun one, we got to know each other better, and used 2 different locations for her shoot.

Following each other on Instagram for a few years & keeping in touch with my random occasional emails (For marketing purposes) brought Rosie back to my inbox: 'I need to develop my personal brand, and I think you'll be the perfect person for that' was the reply to one of my emails talking about my new package offering my workshop followed by a photoshoot for zero excuses type build...

We met for the workshop at KINGDOM, and it was one of the best 4 hours I've spent in a while - Rosie's mind is one I so enjoy getting lost in.. One that wants & does create actual change where it really counts!

The shoot followed at the same location (epic hosts!!) and all in time for an upcoming book publishing soon.

I know my own personal brand is doing what it says on the tin, but working with people like Rosie will forever be considered a massive privilege and a pinch me moment, I don't care how many years I've been doing this!

Oh, and if you are a therapist, and need some proper marketing advice & inspiration - Go give her a follow... You can thank me later 😁

Never have I ever ..

met a more supportive human centred, genuinely caring group of people!
And I got to capture them in action, which made my day!!

Christina Ewbank is one heck of a woman, I wish I knew growing up for the right type of insiration!

Jill Benjafield quietly looking after everyone in the Eastbourne business community, making it look so easy.

Sandra Walker is one of those individuals who is so full of love, it is hard not to want to just hug constantly! She's also the one connecting all those businesses to their mentors in the best way possible.

Stephen Holt is amazingly quiet for someone who actually walk the walk & contributes to some real changes where it counts.

Luke & Lewis just have the best smile EVER! They made me laugh so much during the shoot, it made all the difference 😍

This is the 2nd time I get to hang out with this epic team, and despite them not being keen 'models' I think they did pretty well 😁

If you haven't checked out Eastbourne Unltd Chamber of Commerce or EDEAL you're missing out massively as a local business! Just saying...

Got some catching up to do...

But as it is Fri & it's too hot to sit at a desk, so I'll just drop these here and say this:

Working with epic women in biz is, it itself, a dream come true.

Working with those who hate showing up, then leave feeling it is now possible... NO! Scratch that! That it is So easy!! is beyond a privilege.

In a world where humans are so judged by their appearance,
Where real & fake are such blurred lines...

These type of images make me all kinds of happy.

You rocked our session Nic 🫶🏼
Thank you for placing your trust in me! x

Not quite the birthday post I was planning..

Definitely not how I imagined walking into my second half of a century will look like.

Only a couple of months ago, I felt a sense of arrival. That beautiful, calm strength that comes with knowing who you are and what you want your life to look like. Not to brag, but pretty much most aspects of my life were just right.

Then s**t hit the fan in the most unexpected way.

And life just ...well it's kinda s**t.

Saying goodbye to one of my best friends. My rock.

The kindest man I know who always made me laugh...Who I thought I'd be walking this earth with for much longer... makes my heart ache so much it is unbearable.

I kept working, finding that is the one thing that provides the breathing space I need.

But I stepped away from social media. From marketing my business as I always do. How do you show up when authenticity is your main thing & you are kind of a private person? It just didn't feel right.

Today, when I'm supposed to celebrate my big girl birthday, it felt like the right day to just say:

This is tough.

Business isn't as usual but still my happy place. So yeah, I'm still doing my thing, I'm taking on clients & working with my existing ones with more gratitude than ever.

I'm not ill but I'm not ok.

I also know I will be ok again eventually.

My grief goes straight to shifting between 'pissed-off' mode to the calm that comes with numbness (My birthday treat will be at a rage room smashing some s**t up with a baseball bat)

And on the marketing front:

Social media marketing isn't what makes or breaks a business - definitely not established ones.

Stepping away from it for over a month did not stop the enquiries, and my business did not disappear from people's minds. . so if you are not feeling it, don't stress and certainly don't force it on yourself.

You doing what works for you comes first.

Happy f**king birthday to me.
