Join us on 12th December for Dubai’s newest even

Join us on 12th December for Dubai’s newest event, Meaningful Connections, taking place on Sunday 12th December @meaningfulconnections.ae

We get it. In a city that’s moving so fast where there’s an event happening every day of the week, it can be difficult to just slow things down and really connect with the people that you meet on a deeper level and to find your tribe of people who truly get you and what you’re all about.

Where do you find these people and then once you do find them, how do you create a relationship that has depth?

That’s our aim of Meaningful Connections, an event for professionals and entrepreneurs from all different backgrounds who want to break down barriers and create friendships with people that are more than just for Friday brunch dates.

The event will begin with a panel talk with our special guests @samir.jezzini and @r.qam to open up the discussion of:
🌟 What exactly is a meaningful connection and how do we go about finding them in a fast-paced city?
🌟 How do we overcome the barriers that continuously get in the way of us connecting more deeply with others?
🌟 How to connect with yourself on a deeper level in order to create genuine and more meaningful relationships with others.
🌟 How to overcome the fear of judgement and build the confidence to connect with others more easily wherever you go.

Click on the link in my bio for full details and to sign-up. As we're celebrating the 50th UAE National Day this week, tickets are 50% off until the end of Thursday!

P.S. Unlike my workshops which are women only, this is a mixed event (21+ only). Looking forward to seeing you there😍

‘I thought that once I got into a relationship I

‘I thought that once I got into a relationship I would finally feel whole, so why do I still feel like something’s missing in my life?’

‘I thought that by losing weight I would finally feel beautiful so why is it that I don’t feel attractive?’

‘I thought once I earned x amount I would finally feel successful so why doesn’t it feel like I am?’

This is the trap. We’re so conditioned to believe that by ticking these boxes we will finally have the fulfilment and satisfaction that we’ve been looking for all these years. But then when you eventually get there you realise wow what an anticlimax that was! Which is the hugest disappointment of them all. Placing so many expectations on something or someone to give you the happiness you’re searching for.

Yes! Have big goals! Have wonderful relationships! Have huge amounts of success in your life! But unless alongside your ‘life checklist’ make sure you’re also dedicating yourself to knowing who you are, learning what you truly want, and the nurturing the relationship you have with yourself (which is an ongoing process as you are continuously evolving), otherwise you will only just up feeling empty and disconnected, no matter how many boxes you tick which look impressive to other people.

By delving inwards inside of yourself, you get to make life decisions that are aligned with who you are and what you truly want. You realise that all that you were looking for is within YOU and that everything else is a bonus. Instead of coming from a place of need, it all comes from a place of WANT, which is so much more fulfilling end enjoyable❤️

Do you ever find it difficult to truly connect wit

Do you ever find it difficult to truly connect with people? You meet someone, feel like you have a great connection but then it doesn’t end up going anywhere, or they don’t turn out to be who you thought they were.

Nowadays we are connected more than ever but our connections are so much more about quantity rather than quality. It’s very easy to blame other people or your environment for a lack of meaningful and genuine connections, however we as individuals need to take responsibility because whatever is going on for us internally will be reflected on the outside, especially when it comes to our relationships.

In this episode, I am joined by the special @missabeerk where we have a raw conversation about the difficulties of forming authentic connections and what to do if you feel like you’re struggling in this area.

You can find the Women who Flourish Podcast on Spotify, iTunes and Google Podcasts by clicking on the link in my bio to tune into the episode. This is definitely one you’re going to want to listen to! ❤️

“Confidence isn’t walking into a room thinking

“Confidence isn’t walking into a room thinking you’re better than everyone else. It’s walking in not having to compare yourself to anyone at all.”

At my workshop last night I talked about the difference between confidence and arrogance. Why? Because one of the most common reasons I see as to why women hold back from working on building their self-confidence is because they don’t want to come across as arrogant.
‘Who does she think she is.’
‘She thinks she’s better than everyone else.’
But hey, here’s the thing. When you’re confident in yourself you have nothing to prove. Confidence is calm, it’s quiet, it’s an inner power that you feel and you breathe. Confidence comes with humility. You accept that you have weaknesses and that you will make mistakes along the way (because you’re human in case you forgot).
Arrogance on the other hand is loud. It needs to prove and be in your face. Arrogance is feeling that you’re better than others and enjoying the feeling of making others small. It rejects any type of feedback that doesn’t make them sound great.

So unless you’re doing the latter it’s very unlikely that you’re coming across as arrogant. But if people still choose to say that about you, who cares? Your life is way too short to dim your light and squish yourself into a box when you have so much greatness to bring to the world. But you won’t be able to do that if you spend most of your time obsessing over what everyone else is thinking of you.

Much love to the wonderful women last night and for bringing your beautiful, supportive and loving energy to the event. I can’t wait to witness you turning your dreams into a reality.

For those of you in Abu Dhabi, I will be running the same event there this Saturday. If you’d like to join us click on the link in my bio to register your spot 🌟

Did you know you can be CONFIDENT but have LOW SEL

Did you know you can be CONFIDENT but have LOW SELF-ESTEEM?

And in the same way you can have pretty good self-esteem but lack confidence in certain areas of your life.

The question I get asked the most is ‘how do I become more confident?’ Well first of all, you need to identify all the things you’re doing & believing that are getting in the way of you feeling more confident in yourself, as well as look at the environment you’re in.

You can’t keep doing the same thing over and over again and then get disappointed when you keep having the same outcomes. If you want things in your life externally to change then you need to ask yourself the question ‘what must I start doing differently in order to get more positive results?’ But of course that’s the harder option, with the much easier and more appealing option to just make everything look shiny on the outside😆, but you’ll only continue to feel the same way on the inside.

Whenever I work with my clients we begin by doing a declutter. Identifying all the STUFF as I like to call it (limiting beliefs, poor habits, environment) that’s weighing them down and removing them in order to create the space to get really clear on what they want to do and who they need to be in order to get there. And that’s when the magic starts to happen 🌟

If you’d like to work with a life coach to help you in building your confidence and self-esteem, send me a message and let’s discuss how my 90 day 1:1 coaching programme can support you in doing exactly that❤️

Confidence in 1 minute: Mirror Talk. Your thought

Confidence in 1 minute: Mirror Talk.

Your thoughts become your reality, and what you choose to focus on grows so choose your words wisely.

What is your natural instinct whenever you look in the mirror? Is it somewhere along the lines of ‘ugh’ 😫. If so, YOU are knocking down your confidence every time you choose to speak to yourself in this way.

Start to shift the narrative. I dare yourself to look at yourself deeply in the eyes next time you look in the mirror and smile at yourself. Yeah it will feel really crazy and uncomfortable, but building confidence doesn’t happen from staying in your comfort zone. And hey, no one’s watching you so who cares. Then I challenge you to take it one step further and give yourself a powerful pep talk and say to yourself the words you know you need to hear right now. Commit to doing it for a week and notice the changes. ❤️

DM me and let me know what it did for you🌟
