Warrior Women Finding the Courage to Change the Status-Quo

By Michelle Leech As women and girls, it’s our lot in life to be fearful all the time. Or is it?

After all, we’re used to searching dark alleys, staying in groups, and mentally preparing to use our car keys as defensive weapons. This vigilance is good when it teaches us to be aware of our surroundings, but if we aren’t really sure how to stay safe, it can hold us back from getting out and doing the things we love.

Naomi Wilson Buggar Off I'm a Warrior Woman

On a farm tucked to risky situations.

Naomi has led a diverse and challenging life. With experiences in the army as an Unarmed Combat Soldier as well as in various jobs (as a Carpenter, Truck Driver, Property Manager, and Ambulance Officer, just to name a few) she has immersed herself in historically male-dominated industries and learnt how to deal with the challenges of being the only female in the room. She also experienced intense and violent domestic violence during pregnancy that drove her to learn how she could protect her child and herself.

On her Facebook page, I’m a Warrior Woman, she talks about her experiences throughout life. She shares how even as a child, she watched smart, capable women like her mother feel stuck and helpless. She explains that she noticed this playing out in some ways in the Army too, where women have some incredible advantages but don’t always realise this or feel confident enough to fully step into them.

Away in rural Australia lives an incredible woman on a mission to change that.

Naomi Wilson, the founder of I’m a Warrior Woman, wants to change the way women and girls respond.

Cover Fempreneur Let's be Warrior Women Naomi’s experiences have helped her develop a series of tools and strategies we can all use to keep ourselves safe. Her business, I’m a Warrior Woman, is all about sharing these lessons so that women can feel more confident doing the things they’d like to do, from living alone to going for that solo walk. She wants to teach women how to handle themselves and embrace our unique strengths and abilities.

Naomi believes that women are incredibly capable and can cope with any situation life throws their way. She says her business is not about belittling her audience, but rather giving them the tools and know-how to thrive. What she offers is training in how to make small adjustments to how we’ve set up our lives and respond to situations, to put us back in control.

Not a self-defence course, I’m a Warrior Woman aims to provide inclusive strategies anyone, at any age, can use to deal with a threatening situation. While Naomi acknowledges the importance of traditional self-defence classes, she says they offer one piece of the puzzle and can be challenging for older, pregnant or more reserved women to benefit from fully. By developing other skills, she hopes more women can avoid finding themselves in situations that put them in danger in the first place.

With the happy sounds of her farm animals clucking, pecking, mooing and yapping in the background, Naomi shares tips on everything from the captivating power of fear, to strategic handbag packing.

With a lifetime of experience behind her, Naomi is in control and writing this new chapter of life herself. Here’s to the Warrior Women – may we be them, know them and love them!

Laura Bland First, love yourself

By Michelle Leech

Challenging times change us – they can break us or force us to rise up in ways we never thought possible. For Laura Bland, the co-founder of Love thy Body project, they called on her to provide tremendous support for her partner, who was suffering from depression, anxiety and a lower leg amputation.

lovethybodyproject.com @laurabempoweredwords

As time went on, she realised that she’d lost herself along the way. It took courage to make space in her life for self-love and personal growth, but as she began committing to her own physical and mental wellbeing, she found a strength inside herself that she hadn’t realised was there. She learnt that she loves to help people, and most of all, she wanted to inspire her daughter to always believe she was worthy of all her desires. She wanted to show her, and other women, that they are absolutely incredible and nothing need hold them back.

Enter Laura B Fitness Coach and Mentor – founded on the principles of health and embracing self-love as an example to our children. When asked about her Zone of Genius, Laura said “Being completely open, honest and real. I love to share exactly who am I am and how being me is the best way I can help you.

This authenticity paved the way for the creation of the Love thy Body project, co-founded with friends Serena Novelli and Ana Bonasera, both inspirations in their own right. The Love thy Body project is all about helping women overcome trauma, feelings of guilt and limiting beliefs about themselves, to inspire and bring hope. It aims to help women find the path of self-love, body confidence and sexual empowerment so that they can step fully into the beautiful beings that they are, taking ownership of their power.

Imagine what a world it would be!

Love Thy Body Real Life Stories (Volume 1)

It is through sharing our stories of tragedy and triumph that we help other women see a way though hardship. By opening up about the days we didn’t think we’d get though, and how we managed to rise, we share hope and inspiration with others who may still be lost. Not because we’ve never been there, but because we HAVE, we reach a hand into the darkness to guide the way back to healing, self-love and confidence.

Love thy Body: Real Life Stories (Volume 1) sets out to do just that. It shares the stories of 23 incredible women, each with her own unique story of pain, loss and heartache, providing inspiration on how to move forward through difficult situations using the shared wisdom of others. Covering diverse topics ranging from childhood abuse to IVF treatment to cancer, the book is sure to offer each reader something much needed.

As you laugh or cry with these women, you’ll realise our shared beauty, value and strength, and hopefully rediscover your own.

This is the second book released by Love thy Body project. It is a joint effort by Laura Bland, Serena Novelli, Ana Bonasera and 23 incredible authors who were brave enough to share their stories. It follows the very successful Love thy Body: Unleash your Power, which was released in August 2020 and has already taken the Number 1 spot on Amazon.

In 2014 my marriage ended and I move in with my Parents in a two-bedroom unit with my two kids! Another defining moment was when I resigned from the family business in 2017. The divorce was already a test of my identity (slipping into crisis), and this decision was nearly as huge. I stepped into a world of my own design…

Editor's tip

Reverse engineering your goals Have you sat down and worked out how to achieve your goals? Like really sat down and got stuck into the plan and strategy to get you moving in the right direction?

On a separate piece of paper start at the bottom of the page writing down where you are now, and what are the current goals you have in place in your Biz. Map it out. This time you are working upwards.

Here’s my tip for a fab action plan:

Next grab a blank piece of paper and attach it to the top of your Current Plan.

Grab your Dream Life Plan and attach it the top of the blank piece of paper. Fill in the blanks. Branch up from your Current Plan to form the pathways from your Biz to your Ultimate Dream Life.

Start BIG! What is your ultimate goal?

What is your ultimate dream?

What does living your ultimate dream life look like?

If you find yourself struggling starting big then ease into it and start with a dream day. What would you be doing in this 'dream day'? Where are you? Who are you with?

Now think about your dream week…

What, Where, Who?

Have fun reverse engineering your goals and crafting your Action Plan to get you from where you are right now to your Ultimate Dream Life!

Be BRAVE Be BOLD Dream BIG

How about your ultimate year?

Are you going big yet?

If you could actually design every aspect of your dream life right now, what does it look like?

Map this out. Grab a big piece of paper, map out your ultimate dream life, and work backwards from there. I love to hand write this to get the creative juices flowing.

Work back step by step from your ultimate dream life, through to your ultimate career/business, through to your desired relationships, family, friends, pets, home, car, holidays, team....

How to have fun with Instagram First rule of Instagram is DO NOT compare yourself to anyone!

Let’s go through a Step-by-Step Guide so you can feel more confident and have more fun with Instagram.

Choose a Username that reflects who you are.

Select a clear Profile Picture of YOU; Unless you have an immediately recognisable brand, using your brand logo won’t mean anything to your audience.

Chose a searchable Name - That’s the bit under the profile that is searchable and says what you do.

Create a profile that tells people what you can do for them and how you can help them - This is where you actually imagine who your ideal client is and talk directly to them.

Honor Davis Maison dela Roche www.maisondelaroche.com/how -to-have-fun-with-instagram/

Leave a desirable Call to Action How do they contact you and why do they want to.

@maisondelaroche

Create engaging content. It is all about the value that is in it for your audience. Content that is either educational, inspirational, adds value, entertaining, or behind the scenes sneak peeks are a great place to start.

Business How to have fun with Instagram Did you know you can tag people in your post (using @plususername), and you can do it hidden in the actual photo or in the content! By doing this you are not only getting their attention, but you are bringing your audience’s attention to them too. Share the love!

Use all 30 hashtag’s that you are allowed. Make them relevant to your post and content but also to your business. If you offer a local service then think about adding the location to the hashtag to narrow it down so people looking for a holiday in your area can find you more easily.

BE CAREFUL not use the hashtag’s that have too high numbers as that means they are overused and you will be lost in the haystack.

A GOOD TIP is to go and look at others who are doing well in your industry and see what hashtag’s they are using and collate them into paragraphs in your notes on your phone so you can cut and paste rather than write them out fresh all the time! This will save you so much time and make posting so much easier.

DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE A LOT OF FUN IN STORIES? You can add stickers, GIF’s, music… go and have a play!

INSTAGRAM STORIES ARE YOUR SUPERPOWER! Some people only look at stories so if you don’t post here you are potentially missing 50% of your followers/target audience. Stories enable you to tell your story, share ideas, promote your products, take people behind the scenes and to get visible. Just get out there with short video clips and tell people about you or take them on a tour of your workplace or maybe a time lapse video of you making your craft.

KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE. Spend time getting to know who they are and give give give. Don’t be worried about finding new followers - Look after the ones you have and nurture them.

MOST IMPORTANTLY HAVE FUN. Yes, it’s business and yes, it can be a lot of work but it’s not rocket science. Try things out, if that doesn’t work, try it another way. No one will think less of you if you make mistakes, and if someone doesn’t like what you do then they are not your audience anyway, so we don’t care!

Instagram is like a great big virtual cocktail party, go mix, hang out with your followers/audience/clients, join in conversations, and have fun!

How to pick a font for your new business How to pick the perfect font that tells your brand story best

What is a font?

A font is the style of text that you pick to use in all your branded collateral. It is important to keep this consistent to ensure your brand is instantly recognisable.

How to pick your font 1.

Write down 5 key words that describe your brand.

2.

Choose the word that resonates most with you most such as “creative".

3.

Bryony Brand Brand by Bryony brandbybryony.com @brandbybryony_

Go to www.1001freefonts.com and select “fancy” or one of the many options that resonates with you. The “fancy” font you choose will be your accent font which may be used in pull out quotes, headings etc.

4.

Go to www.1001freefonts.com and select “sans serif” (simple fonts with no feet) or choose one you already have on your computer. This will be a simple, clean, easy to read font such as the one you are currently reading, that you can use for all your big sections of copy and the headings that you want to communicate clearly to your audience.

I would recommend that you limit your fonts to two, this will keep your design looking professional and ensure it is easy to read.

Remember by adding these font choices to your brand board or brand guidelines you will ensure that your brand is instantly recognisable.

Spicy or sweet: a brand story that’s so YOU! 'The most important thing is to be AUTHENTIC.’ When you’re starting out or growing your business, it can be difficult to figure out ‘who’ your business is supposed to be. Should you go with an ‘all business, no play’ persona? A sweet, whimsical one? Or is your brand just a little bit spicy?

The answer to this is partly guided by your industry – spicy lawyers might be fun at the Christmas party, but might not your first choice when you’re in a jam… Once you’ve figured out the constraints of your industry, the most important thing is to be AUTHENTIC.

Here’s how:

Michelle Leech The Paperbark Diaries @thepaperbarkdiaries

1. Tell stories. We all love a story. Stories create feelings and they build connections. In other words, they build TRUST. 2. Share your brand personality. When you create a personality-driven story, you give your audience a ‘person’ to trust. You can design a personality that reflects you, your staff, and your inspirations.

3. Keep it simple! Don’t tell such convoluted stories that your message gets lost in the fluff.

4. Make sure your story connects with your audience. People connect to what they understand, can relate to, or like.

5. Make sure you share WHY you exist. And please don’t say $$$... Your potential customers want to be part of something bigger.

6. Invite your audience to become part of your story by enjoying your products. The best brands leave customers feeling great each time they use the product, because they feel connected to your greater purpose.

Are you ready to get started? Remember, authenticity and connection make your brand shine!

Mumpreneur Feature

Giving up the good girl Back in 2011 my whole world fell apart. I found out that my high-school sweetheart was having an affair. However, I stayed, I blamed myself, and I made excuses for him; he was a big piece in my ‘fairy tale’, he was my whole identity. I spent two more years in that relationship until I finally had enough.

In 2014, 10 months after our separation, I suffered domestic violence at the hands of my ex and I had to find the strength to be a prosecution witness. When a Domestic Violence Advisor came to see me, it dawned on me that I had been in an emotionally abusive relationship for an awfully long time. My ex was found guilty of assault and criminal damage in court but appealed the decision. So, a year later, I had to find the strength all over again.

I survived and felt stronger. I ploughed myself into my teaching job, it was my soul passion and became my entire identity.

However, with a change in management I faced workplace bullying. It plummeted me right back into victim mode. I fell back into how I felt with my ex for all those years. It was then I realised I hadn’t quite healed, and my confidence and self-esteem were still heavily affected. To make it all worse, I lost the only bit of my identity I had left, being a great teacher, and it had been undermined by yet another bully in my life.

In 2017, I realised something had to change, I found the hope and courage I needed through a Network Marketing company.

Here I found my biggest saviour, personal development. I devoured books and audios, I was inspired by the stories of positivity and success, I learnt about myself, I started to rebuild my self-esteem, replacing old beliefs for new ones, and taking time to recover physically and mentally. I went on the biggest journey of my life, exploring what lit me up, discovering my purpose, and set about living it!

Mumpreneur Feature Giving up the good girl I found ‘On Broadway’ ® Dance Fitness First. This incredible company was not only created to help women feel fabulous in their bodies, but also to celebrate women and encourage them to fill their own cup, and to increase self-esteem and confidence. Katy, the founder, builds positive female communities and uses dance to help women’s mental wellness.

Katy inspired me and with the help of a Business Coach, I soon discovered that I wanted to pass on my love of personal development to women, I want to go deeper with women about finding their ‘whole woman’, and I want them to be empowered to find their passion and live it!

So, I launched my Coaching Business, ‘Giving up the Good Girl’ with Joanne Wu. I help women tap into the ‘whole woman’ inside of them; I had gone from an unknowingly-defeated girl to an empowered woman on my journey so now I help women get to the holy grail of womanhood, loving yourself, warts and all, embracing your passions and desires, and living in your power, rather than giving it up to others.

My trauma led to growth and happiness in all areas of my life. I am a role model for my two young daughters, doing what I love to do and making a difference.

Every day I do something I am passionate about. I have fun and grow along with the women I serve. I love the community I have created.

The world needs more positive, passionate, uplifting women, who support and encourage each other!

Advice

How to tell if your outfit looks good I always encourage my clients to have fun and push boundaries to keep their styles vibrant Do you struggle with not knowing when your outfit looks good? Maybe your body changed and you don’t know how to dress your new shape. Or you never understood how to flatter your body in the first place?

If yes, these style tips will help!

As a personal fashion stylist, I rely on a few questions to determine whether my client’s clothes suit them, or not

1. Does she look comfortable?

Fidgeting is natural when trying something on. But if you’re physically uncomfortable in your clothes, it shows. Your face may tense. Or your posture may shrink. Physical discomfort is obvious. Mental discomfort is when you feel "too fat", "too thin", or inadequate from trying something on. Don’t wear clothes that make you feel bad. You won't feel good and it won't look good.

2. Is anything awkward about the fit?

Are the shoulders of the garment where they should be? Is the bust line right? Sometimes a tailoring job can help, and I always recommend a customized fit.

Because if a garment has weird bunching or isn’t aligned, it doesn’t work.

Elysha Lenkin Personal Fashion Stylist elyshalenkin.com @elysha_nyc Hi - I'm Elysha!

I help women dress better so they show up as superstars in their lives.

In my 20+ year career, I have styled women of all shapes and sizes including Tina Fey, Carrie Underwood and Serena Williams.

3. Do the colors flatter her skin tone?

When a color suits your complexion, it takes your entire outfit to the next level. You look fresh and healthy.

Alternatively, when you wear an unflattering color, it makes you look tired and older than your age.

4. Does it look like you?

This refers to the personality of your outfit. Does it reflect the person you are today? I always encourage my clients to have fun and push boundaries to keep their styles vibrant. But if you push it too far, you may feel like you’re trying too hard. The best outfits are the ones that stay true to you.

Ask yourself these questions when trying something on, and you’ll know if your outfit looks good and if you will feel good in it!

Groundhog Day! Have you been there?

Wasn’t loving the ‘value’ of my time being dictated by someone else Ever feel like you’re living the same day over and over? I know I’ve been there!

It’s easy to get lost in a comfortable routine without questioning it. I mean, you don’t know what you don’t know, right?!

I lost my way. I lost my zest. I felt so guilty and so selfish for not being grateful for all my blessings. I have incredible children, amazing friends, a home, nourishing food, and a regular income, so why was my spark fizzling out?

Tara Jane FEM Global @femglobalofficial

Hi - I'm Tara!

I help Mumpreneurs to filter the chaos, ditch the mum-guilt, and catch their tails!

How? By monetising passions, and crafting passive income, while rediscovering harmony and balance within the home... that's my jam!

It dawned on me that I was living Groundhog Day! Every day was the same. I was comfortable but I wasn’t living in alignment with my heart and soul. I was drowning in mum-guilt, feeling unfulfilled, and wasn’t loving the “value” of my time being dictated by someone else (i.e. 9-5 work-jail).

When I finally realised I’d been forgetting to fill up ALL my buckets, take care of myself, be present in the moment, pay attention to my inner being, and have confidence in my abilities as a Mum and a Woman, it all changed.

I started to live life by my design; I shifted priorities, identified my soul fuel, and chose to live in alignment. I discovered that we control our own everyday existence whether we are designing or defaulting. We are either choosing to stay comfortable and live in default mode OR we are pushing the boundaries, taking control, and designing our lives.

How about you? Are you fuelling your soul each day? Are you choosing to design your life?

If not, start by identifying what lights you up. Then put this soul fuel in your planner. YES, actually schedule time for this! I promise you there are enough hours in the day when you start living life by your design.

Aligning energy to start a business Why do many people start a business?

For many it is about money and time. Maybe it’s not to make millions of dollars, however the idea of having more control over finances and time, and essentially the freedom of both, is most alluring.

Kerri Healy

Of late we have seen a burst of passion-based businesses enter the market, of which I personally love.

What I have learnt over the past 15 years as an entrepreneur is a key element of business success is personally aligning to the energy of your business.

Kerri Healy Coaching @kerri.healy

Hi - I'm Kerri!

You may have heard the term ‘energy is everything’, this is just as true for a business. The energy of your business is paramount to its success and aligning to this energy in every element from your big picture mission and purpose, through to the smaller logistical details, can indeed be the make or break for your business before you even launch.

I am a Gifted Healer & Spiritual Business Coach.

I integrate powerful strategies & energy work to assist my clients to receive greater levels of abundance.

So where do you start with aligning to the energy of your new venture?

To begin, I would recommend taking a deep dive and get detailed clarity on what you are creating in terms of your big vision and your big Why. Try not to get caught up in details about any business without first gaining clarity on what is important to you. Ask yourself deeper questions that really draw out from your soul,

How you feel about your business is always key to the energy you will bring, and the energy you bring to business is ultimately going to assist in expanding or contracting your business.

So ask yourself, where is your energy and how can you align it more deeply to your business?

• Is this business going to fulfil you?

• Does this business align with your morals and values?

Why travel?

Travel brings power and love back to your life – Rumi Travel grew into a strong passion of mine. Over the years, planning travel and travelling has not only become my profession but a way of life.

When I travel, I become empowered, ready for something new and it simply broadens my horizons. I love to explore new adventures and live each day to the fullest.

Marina Gomberg

Through my 25 years in the travel industry, I had travelled to some amazing places that most people cannot even dream about, and I met some wonderful people.

Purposeful Travel Journeys marinagomberg.com

My motto is to share those experiences by showcasing the most stunning places in Australia & New Zealand while creating unforgettable memories.

Taking time for us to gather our thoughts and to recharge is imperative to our well-being. When we are well, we are better leaders, mothers, wives, husbands and friends.

Purposeful travel has been in my heart for a long time.

I am always asked to share my experiences, so a brand-new way to travel & discover incredible places in Australia & New Zealand was born.

When I travel, I aim for a blend of things we love the most in life, things that make us happy: food, wine, fashion, self-discovery, adventure, laughter, self– nurturing and so much more.

Imagine taking time out and immersing yourself in 3-7-day retreats with hand-picked experiences in magical destinations, inspirational facilitators, ‘my sanctuary time’, inspired learning, reconnection with yourself, and others, opening our eyes, hearts & trying new things.

We know that by travelling, learning and making new friends we open ourselves up to a life filled with endless possibilities.

"There is nothing better than travelling, discovering, connecting, renewing, and growing.

Make sure you take time out for a Purposeful Journey... wherever it takes you!!!".

10 ways to feel creatively inspired Sometimes all it takes is one small action.

1. Go for a walk Sometimes it’s simply a stroll to get a coffee. A change of scene can help boost your mental activity, plus give you a different perspective – invaluable!

2. Create distance from your desk/art studio Step away from your desk to help create psychological distance from the project or painting.

3. Do the hard thing first This is a personal and very helpful tip. Whatever it is that feels like a big challenge, do it first.

4. Read, read some more For me, reading has always been an escape, but it turns out it’s also beneficial to broadening your perspective and opens your mind to new ideas.

5. Listen to music Easy, right? Especially with the apps we have, we never run out of music!

6. Doodle Engaging your hands while you think can improve your levels of concentration and creativity.

Louise Topping Illustrator puddingandpickles.co.za @puddingandpickles

7. Eat (healthy) Yes, your brain also needs food. But only the good stuff.

8. Try a break in your routine Take a break from your comfort zone, try a new café, mix an unexpected colour palette, jog a different route. Whatever it takes to give you a little different perspective. You may make a discovery that leads to inspiration.

9. Spend time with your friends Discuss your projects, they may have some useful ideas and, as I keep coming back to, a different perspective.

10. Don’t be afraid to fail This should be number 1 actually. It’s a life lesson that is so important. To overcome this fear, let all judgement go. Give it a try, do it anyway!

Advice

Making space within your home “It’s about progression not perfection” Getting organised around the home has never been more important than right now, with this year seeing so many of us spending way more time inside than usual. I’m going to share some tips below to help you get started.

Before you begin any kind of organisation, it’s really important to go through the decluttering process first. Take out all of the items that you no longer need, want, or use, because space is a premium!

I know that it can seem overwhelming when you think about decluttering; a never ending job that is daunting to even start. So here are a few top tips: Choose one room and break that down further to one area.

Emma George Declutter with Emma declutterwithemma.com @declutterwithemma

Set a timer for 30 mins as this will help you to stay focused, and you’ll know there is an end to the task should you need it.

Create different piles for keeping, donating, selling, & recycling.

If you find it hard to let go of items, switch that thought around and decide what you want to keep rather than what you want to throw away! It can help to take the pressure off.

It is very tempting to want all of the amazing storage products out there, but my advice to you is to wait until you have decluttered to see what storage items you will really need, as often you may find boxes and baskets that you already have, and can reuse.

If you do decide to purchase storage solutions, don’t forget to measure your areas to ensure the storage choices will fit!

Remember, decluttering is all about progression not perfection. Every time you declutter an area you are one step closer to the end goal; creating more space, better organisation, and turning chaos to calm.

Nutrition with Gabi What I hear most of the time from my clients is that they don’t know what to cook with the ingredients they have, or they have nothing ready in the fridge when they are hungry so they end up ordering take away food - overspending - or eating unhealthy options.

Gabriela Novais

Do you also find it hard to organise your kitchen and create a MEAL plan for your week?

Check out these tips to help you out!

Food Consultant

Plan a MENU for your week.

@with_gabi Check your pantry and make sure you are not buying ingredients to be used only once - when following a recipe sometimes it asks for a specific ingredient that you will only use once, so check what you already have and replace; most flours, spices, and milk can be replaced and you won’t over spend.

Create a shopping list and if you can do online grocery shopping, it’s saves time and money.

Separate a time to clean your fruits and veggies.

Cook and freeze them if you are overstocked.

GO SIMPLE! If you don’t have much time and/or experience in the kitchen, follow easy recipes.

We know that an hour is earned for every minute spent organising.

You are aware that it's easier to eat healthy and well during the week if you prepare the meals on Sundays, instead of cooking every night after work (or eating whatever you find in your fridge). But sometimes you don't really want to spend your weekend preparing for all aspects of the week ahead, and it's ok. Choose your priorities and find smart ways of getting things done and organised.

If you want specialist help to get your food routine organised get in touch with me, I'm a Plant-based Food Consultant and can help you to plan your meals and organise your life around the kitchen.

Getting to the root cause of your adult acne "Antibiotics and birth control are NOT the only options!”

Thought you were going to grow out of your acne? Are you finding yourself in your 40’s and still battling it? You are not alone, hormonal acne is a very real problem for women.

The major triggers for adult acne are poor gut health, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances. These three are completely intertwined, as gut dysbyosis drives inflammation, which in turn influences our delicate hormonal balance.

Sheradyn Dekker

Hormonal acne tends to present itself at certain times of the month, for some it’s at ovulation, some a few days before your period, and for others at the start of menstruation. For women struggling with PCOS and Hypothalamic Amenorrhea (as I did!), you may have terrible acne every day. Hormonal acne occurs first and foremost around the mouth, but can also present on the chin, nose, and in severe cystic acne along the jawline, back and chest.

Hormonal acne is caused by an increase in oil production, which stems from imbalanced hormones. It’s important to understand why your hormones are imbalanced if you want to heal your skin.

Functional Nutritionist sheradyndekker.com Hi - I’m Sheradyn!

I'm a former IBS, PMS and adult-acne sufferer.

I have made it my mission to empower & educate women, to dig beyond their symptoms, beyond pills, & beyond “healthy” diets.

Ladies, its time to go from symptoms to solutions!

Topical products can aid in managing acne, however, they won’t heal the underlying cause.

Typically, women who struggle most with acne either have: 1. High levels of testosterone due to PCOS or insulin resistance 2. Low levels of estrogen due to not ovulating, menopause, or low body fat 3. High levels of DHEA-S (a stress hormone) Rather than bouncing between supplements, diets, and skin care products, the best thing you can do is to get blood work done through a Holistic Health Care Practitioner to figure out precisely what your underlying problem is so you can directly target and treat.

Lastly, antibiotics and birth control are NOT the only options! It is entirely possible to cure adult acne using nutrition, herbs, and stress reduction strategies.

When the darkness is where the light is found

By Michelle Leech

Latoya Jade has been brought to her knees in life. At times it felt as though circumstances were hopeless, as the same cast of characters walked into her life, time and again, wearing different faces and names.

It was only when she really decided to sit with herself and embrace all her parts, including the darkness, that she was able to find healing and light. This became her inspiration as an entrepreneur and author, as she shares her raw, messy journey of selfdiscovery, to inspire others to find their way.

In her authentic, unfiltered and relatable way, Latoya shares the impacts of growing up with a narcissistic mother, abusive relationships and friendships, sexual assault, date rape, pregnancy and birth trauma and the near loss of her fourth son. She opens up about how she finally fell into patterns of self-loathing, self-harm and darkness.

Most importantly, she discovered how to find her way back and is now on a mission to help others do the same.

Once she had reached into her darkness, sat with it and learnt to embrace it as part of her wholeness, she realised she’d created a method for healing. This enabled her to step into her raw, wild power as an Intuitive Healing Coordinator. She offers self-love, shadow work and empowerment retreats, workshops and circles of ritual to help others unlock their own intuitive healing power.

She’s also written a book she describes as a ‘journey of self-led healing’ and ‘a voice for the darker parts of ourselves that all too often are shamed or silenced.’ In it, she shares her journey and teaches us how to embrace the wisdom that already exists within us all.

Mandala How to use this page This colouring page has been thoughtfully designed to help you enter into a deep state of relaxation and meditation.

This original hand-drawn mandala has been paired with an affirmation that should be reflected upon and repeated quietly while colouring.

The repetition of the affirmation will calm your mind and quieten your internal thoughts. If your mind wanders from the affirmation, acknowledge the distraction and refocus on repeating the affirmation.

By doing this you are training your mind to be still.

When you repeat words quietly you are also giving them suggestive strength and energy, that is to say, you will start believing them.

Cass Ravaga Artist

Colouring the mandala will add to this mediation as you keep your body still and your hands busy.

Mandalas are traditionally used as meditation tools in many cultures and will give you enough structure while colouring to keep your attention and be focused yet they're not so complex that you need active thought.

Show me the (Fem)Money!

Female Founders are ready and waiting, but where is the money?

Think back to 1996 and Tom Cruise is on the big screen, screaming down the phone to his client…

“SHOW. ME. THE MONEY!” The line is legendary. We’ve all said it a million times. Yet here we are in 2020, and female founders are not seeing the money. On average, businesses led by women are receiving approximately 2% of global VC money.

I know right!

Lisa Erhart funding4growth.io @funding4growth

Hi - I'm Lisa!

I am the Founder of Funding4Growth, a global

Even with evidence that female founders establish, and grow businesses that are significantly better financial investments, all we get is 2%.

The Boston Consulting Group, in collaboration with Mass Challenge, determined that women-owned start-ups generate more revenue for every dollar received than their male counterparts. They calculated, if investors had put the same amount of capital into the start-ups that were founded or cofounded by women as they had into those founded by men, an additional $85 million would have been generated over the five-year period of the study.

Like. WOW. So how do female founders bridge the gap and access the funding they deserve?

accelerator program designed for purpose-driven Female Founders actively seeking funding to accelerate growth and significantly increase their impact.

These are my Top 5 suggestions: 1. ‘Lean In’ and build networks with female VC’s (Venture Capatalist’s).

2. Get robust valuations done and then, Pitch for Investment!

3. Structure the business so that it is ‘investment friendly’.

4. Get clear on your long-term vision. Articulate where you are, where you are going, and what funds are needed to get there.

5. Be Bold! Tap into your inner CEO driving change and deserving to be funded.

When women believe they can, the most amazing things happen.

Accounting through the ages Accounting is more than just the recording of transactions in a series of debits and credits, it is the language of business and, by extension, the language of all things financial. Accountants translate the complexities of finance into information that any person can understand.

In ancient times there were no computers, bank feeds or even pre-defined charts of accounts, or even a currency to record the transactions. Transactions would have been accounted as a bartering transaction, for e.g. In exchange for three chickens provided today, a satchel of seed when the harvest is completed.

Tascha Breytenbach Brighten Accountants brightenaccountants.com.au

Can you imagine how complex this must have been….how does one account a value for a cabinet maker making a table from scratch as opposed to a baker baking a cake? This difficulty eventually led to the establishment of a currency in which products and services were valued in terms thereof. The currency itself also had to have some value or else no one would be willing to part with their services or goods. So low and behold gold and silver was used for the coins.

Then, as now, business sense and ability with numbers were not always found in one person, so math-phobic merchants would employ bookkeepers to maintain a record of what they owed and who owed debts to them.

So the next time you upload a bank feed to your accounting system with transactions automatically allocated, trial balances and financial statements only the touch of a button away….. just sit back and reflect how far accounting has come from its origins.

However, just like in ancient times you still need that accountant and tax agent to ensure that you get the optimal benefit and information from your accounts.

Upscale your brand!

Stand out - be chosen

Lauren Biggs

Having a personal brand photoshoot is so important for your Business! You want to convey professionalism and have the right image representing your business across all platforms. It's all about consistency and quality content, and your images are an excellent way to make that happen in this digital world.

Lauren Biggs Photographer Brand images allow you to stand out and capture the attention of your audience. People can relate more to you and your business with authentic imagery that shows your personality and your brand/product well.

Here’s a guide to help you feel prepared and have a successful branding shoot:

• Have a completed brand board Have a clear picture of your brand. Think inspirational images that gives your photographer an idea of the look you want to achieve. Start with Pinterest or Google and collate your images. If you’re not sure, don’t stress - Let’s chat!

• Be clear on your top descriptive words for your brand Pick a few. These can be emotional words. A good brand photographer will match your outfits, location, and feel of the shoot to what you are trying to achieve.

@laurenbiggslbph

• Pick a location that speaks to you and your client/audience Choose a location that is in line with your style. This could be a studio for natural light and studio shots, a coffee shop, home office, garden, high-rise, Airbnb, park, or beach.

• Don’t forget to relax and have fun!

It is SUPER normal to be nervous, but I assure you that there isn’t anything to be nervous about! You don’t have to know a thing about posing, leave that to your photographer. A good photographer will help you to feel comfortable and will direct you the whole way. You will have so much fun! You are amazing and you will feel it after your shoot!

Mindset

The importance of knowing who we are "Your greatest love and your deepest peace can be found in the contentment of being comfortable in your own skin" If I were to ask you, "Tell me WHO you are?" How are you likely to respond? Would you go into detail about being a mum, a partner, the job you have, where you fit in your family? Of course you would!!

Because for the most part, these things are what form your identity.

The trouble with feeling like you know who you are based on the roles you play within society, is that anything external from you can be taken away. The marriage can end, the child can move away, people can die, jobs can be lost, family fractures can happen. Nothing, no matter how hard we try, will be guaranteed to stay the same.

We, however, have the ability to stay the same within our heart. Knowing who you are irrespective of your external circumstances is your truest power.

Your greatest love and your deepest peace can be found in the contentment of being comfortable in your own skin.

Andrea Powles-Gullick Transformational Courage Coach soulfullivingwithandrea.com.au @soulfullivingwithandrea

Our truth resides within ourselves, our KNOWING has the power to lead us to exactly where we want to go. It does not force, hurry, or rush us. It simply whispers to us if we create the time and space to hear it. Plus, when we learn to trust in the gentle nudges, the serendipity that appears, it becomes VERY apparent when we are not in alignment with our truth.

Alignment Knowing what your value allows you to prioritise people, experiences and events that are most important to you.

The power of networking "If you have ever been in a room full of likeminded women willing to give more than they take, then you will know exactly what I mean" If you are not Networking, then OH MY GOSH you are missing out! There is so much growth both personally and professionally with Networking, you just need to find ‘your tribe’.

There are many incredible groups out there and I am sure there could be some not-so-great ones too. All depends on who you are and what you are wanting to get out of it. Keep showing up, try all the groups in your area until you find one you like. You might even find a few!

Have you been wondering how to scale your Business Nationally or even Internationally?

NETWORKING IS THE KEY! Since the world has been turned upside down by COVID-19 most Businesses and Community Support Groups had to make a huge shift in the way they operate, many had no choice but to pivot to an online structure. Before COVID-19 there were more reservations in regard to Networking online, however, with a worldwide lockdown and the growing need for community support and connection with others, Online Networking has become very popular. You can literally scale your Business Internationally from Online Networking!

I don’t know about you, but before I knew any better I thought Networking was a bunch of suited-up extremeverts shoving Business Cards in your face, sliding you tacky sales lines, and big noting themselves. Judgmental much?

Hi - I'm Tara!

I help Mumpreneurs to filter the chaos, ditch the mum-guilt, and catch their tails!

How? By monetising passions, and crafting passive income, while rediscovering harmony and balance within the home.

That's my jam!

I was pleasantly surprised by the support, empowerment, connections, and collaborations forming from one single event! I was hooked!!! I left buzzing, full of ideas for my Business and other Businesses.

I found myself listening to what others were doing purely to find out how I can help them or how they can help someone else in the room.

networking Not to sell to them or for them to buy from me, purely to help, to refer, to recommend, to support…

Gosh it was incredible, such an inspiration. I felt fulfilled discovering a full community of inspiring local Mum’s in Business who were there to support each other and grow Businesses together. If you have ever been in a room full of likeminded people willing to give more than they take, then you will know exactly what I mean.

I loved it so much that I have now been a Networking Leader for ‘Moms/Mums in Business International – The Empowerment Network’ for over a year! www.facebook.com/groups/mibinternational/ I have been Networking both Online and Offline across the globe with thousands of amazing Mums in Business.

I have seen the most wonderful connections and collaborations form before my very eyes between complete strangers. These Women enter an Event not knowing a soul and they walk out of the Event with a whole new support system and cheer squad.

We all know how lonely running your own Business can be especially if you are a Solopreneur or Mumpreneur running a household and juggling a Business. How many times do you feel like giving up? How many times do you doubt your abilities or doubt if you are doing the right thing?

Oh, self-limiting beliefs and imposter syndrome are VERY REAL. You are not alone. Imagine having a group of super lovely Business Ladies right there by your side or on the other end of the phone ready to lend an ear, offer their advice, support, and understanding. Priceless right? The right Networking Group can offer you just that!

Get out there. Put yourself outside your comfort zone. Show up. Get yourself known. Expand your Business reach. Build a support network, and grow your Businesses together!

Incredible things happen when Women get together to support and inspire. See for yourself ;)

Gratitude

Grateful hearts Gratitude is the best attitude #gratitude

Sasha Lester SML Coaching

1.

Appreciate something in your natural surrounds. The flower that has recently bloomed in your garden. The resilience of trees that flourished during drought and the pure awesomeness of the mountain in front of you.

2.

"Gratitude can transform any situation. It can pull us from the vortex of fear and negativity that is sucking the life out of us and give us a renewed sense of hope, faith, and joy.

Practicing gratitude is not just about writing the same thing over and over and over again; day in day out.

There is an art to it. You have to be writing your gratitude from the heart, not just "bashing them out" so you can get on with your daily life.

If you haven’t noticed a positive shift in your life from writing down what you’re grateful for, here are three simple tips to supercharge you on your way."

Think of three wonderful teachers you’ve had throughout your life. And I'm not talking school teachers (although there might be some great ones you can remember), I'm talking about the individuals that you cross paths with and leave you with just just one piece of wisdom.

3.

Remember three of the best days of your life. Most people immediately think of big milestone events, such as the days' their children were born or the day they got married. Go beyond the obvious days to the “ordinary” days that were quite extraordinary: days spent with family and friends, doing enjoyable, yet average things, or a day you launched a business, or got a new job or even a puppy.
