This is the second episode I've done with Amy Luttrell on the Messy Action Podcast.

Amy has just completed 12 months in the Members Club and her results are unfathomable. I am SO PROUD.

In this episode we did some deep dives into letting go in order to call in what you actually want, going from a $14k biz year in 2022 to making over $17k in May this year, spending $20k to move to Rarotonga with her young family, increasing prices, self worth, self love, self sabotage and the most IMPORTANT part... how she was able to make the kind of money she now makes and it's not what you've been led to believe, it starts with e and ends with s.

In this episode I speak into giving yourself permission to have what you want.

What you want really is safe guidance. You have desires and dreams and curiosities for a reason, to move you in the direction you were always meant to go in.

You will never be as young as you are now, you will continue to get wiser; use those gifts, monetise them and create the life you have always wanted. Permission GRANTED!
