Smash your own Ceiling
the success of your business depends on your leadership team
Let me ask you a question…
Do you:
If so, this is what Smash Your Own Ceiling is all about!
It’s time to take your foot off the brake pedal, that’s what you’re here for
What Smash Your Own Ceiling is really about
Smash Your Own Ceiling isn’t about pushing harder or becoming someone else.
It’s about removing the internal resistance that’s been quietly limiting how you show up.
This work is for ambitious, success-driven business owners and people who are already successful, but know they’re not playing full out. Not because they can’t… but because something internal keeps pulling them back.
Over eight weeks, we work directly on the mindset, thinking patterns, habits, and beliefs that keep you playing smaller than you intend, so your ambition and your actions finally align.
Why this keeps happening (even when you know better)
Most people assume that holding themselves back is about confidence, or capability…
It isn’t. It’s about:
- learned patterns that once kept you safe but now limit you
- internal rules you’ve outgrown
- fear dressed up as logic
- overthinking that masquerades as being responsible
- self-protection that quietly blocks progress
Smash Your Own Ceiling helps you see those patterns clearly, interrupt them, and replace them with ways of thinking and acting that support who you’re becoming not who you used to be.
Smash Your Own Ceiling is about stepping into the next iteration of you!
What you’ll learn
Pre-Work
7 Days of pre-work to get you off to an amazing start
Week 1 – Leaning into your vision
Week one is all about getting up close and personal with what you want (even if you haven’t admitted it to yourself yet)
Week 2 – The New You
Week one is where you start to step into the ‘new you’. We take a close look at what you say to yourself, your daily habits and the small steps that all add up to getting you to where you want to be.
Week 3 – What’s holding you back
Now that you’ve stepped into ‘the new you’ it’s time to look at what’s going on behind the scenes, and to identify the limiting beliefs and habits that have been holding you back. This is where we learn to turn the volume right down on your inner critic.
Week 4 – Your Future Self
Week four is all about getting up close and personal with your future self. You get to know your values, and how they can really help you achieve your success and grow your abundance, and you learn to tap into your own personal super power.
Week 5 – Implementation and Coaching Week
Implementation week gives you a chance to reflect, go a bit slower and practice everything that we’ve covered so far, or take some action. I’ll also be supporting you on this week’s live call.
Week 6 – Stepping Past Fear
Week six is all about stepping past fear and stretching your comfort zone so you really start to grow your self belief and confidence. Get ready for some shifts to take place, to take some amazing action.
Week 7 – Upgrading Your Thinking
You’ve met your inner critic, but have you met your inner coach? Week 7 is all about understanding how to dial up your own internal coach and how to say YES to the things that you might have previously resisted or avoided. Playing BIG and Shining Your Light is the theme for this week.
Week 8 – Future Proof
Week twelve is all about future proofing everything that we’ve achieved, so you can go and share your magically confidently with the world.
BONUS (ONE MONTH LATER) Post Work – Making it Happen
You’ve heard of pre-work, but have you heard of Post-work? A live call one month later to make sure everything’s going great, celebrate wins and give you A’s to any of your Q’s.
Throughout it all you’ll be taking action in your business or career so you start to see the momentum you’ve been looking for and the results you really want.
