Welcome to episode 21 of the Confidently Visible podcast!

In this final episode of 2025, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my business and personal life to reflect on the year that was, including some of the wins as well as the hard parts - and to share what I’m intentionally calling in for 2026.

In 2025, self-care was my word and it became my anchor through some major transitions over the past few years. In this ep, I share what my word for 2026 is, and why I've chosen it.

This episode is both a reflection of the year that was, and an invitation for you to celebrate and reflect as well. Your efforts around visibility should honour the season you’re in, and in this episode I share how I’ve created that in the past – and how you can do it too in 2026.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• What self-care looked like in a year of healing and growth
• Some major business and personal milestones in 2025
• My 2026 word of the year, and why I’m choosing this
• The practices I’m using to reconnect with my inner wisdom
• What to expect from me and the podcast in 2026
• Journalling prompts to support your own end-of-year reflection

Welcome to episode 20 of the Confidently Visible podcast!

If you’re feeling stuck in overthinking or trying to create the “perfect” post, video, or email, this episode of the Confidently Visible podcast is for you.

Consider this your permission slip to loosen the grip and let your voice lead. I’m sharing how letting your content flow through you (rather than scripting every word) creates more magnetic, aligned, and soulful visibility. You’ll learn why over-prepared content can feel disconnected, and how to shift into natural, grounded expression that truly resonates with your audience.

Whether you're navigating content paralysis, fear of being judged, or just want to feel more “you” in what you share, this episode is here to help you reclaim your voice and speak from the heart.

What you'll learn in this episode:

• Why over-scripting can disconnect you from your true message
• The energetic difference between forced vs. flow-based content
• How to shift from performance to presence when creating
• Simple mindset shifts to stop second-guessing your voice
• Practical tools to create with more ease and alignment
• Why speaking to one person is the key to deep connection
• How to ground yourself with a powerful content mantra
• A visibility action to help you practice unscripted sharing
