About the show

We all have Wanky thoughts... you know what I mean, those thoughts that pop into your head making you believe you're not capable of building a business and life you love. Who's gonna pay me that, I'm not a speaker, I need more experience, I'm crap at sales.... all Wanky thoughts that keep your income and success capped. Well no more, because removing those Wanky thoughts is easy and this podcast will tell you exactly how to do that. Expect honest, frank and upfront conversations about what it really takes to create a successful business that doesn't have you chained to your phone 24/7, because let's face it, we all want a life outside of our business.... and free, completely uninterrupted time on our own.

16. Why Your Clients Want Less (And You Keep Giving Them More)

"I need to add more to justify my price." Sound familiar? 🙋‍♀️ In this episode, we're talking about the one thing that's making your offer worse... and it's probably something you're doing with the best intentions. What we cover: When that Wanky Thought whispers "you're not good enough, nobody will pay that much, you don't know enough" , what do we do? We pile it on. More videos. More calls. More workbooks. More modules. More, more, more. But here's the thing. Your clients don't want more. They want the result. And in a world where everyone is overwhelmed, overstimulated, and already drowning in tabs they haven't opened since 2023... less is genuinely what sells. We dig into: Why bulking out your offer is a fear response, not a value add How to audit your course, programme or 1-2-1 offer and strip it back Why doing less often gets better results for you AND your clients Stop adding content to justify your price. Start delivering the result in the simplest, clearest way possible. That's what people pay for. That's what gets them results. And that's what gets you the testimonials that actually sell.

13. It ain't your fault you hate videos

In an AI age, being visible ain't an option... unless you wanna end up broke working in Greggs. If you want paying clients, you have to build trust, which means showing up, showing your face and talking on camera. Now whilst that might send shivers down your spine, you are forgiven for having this fear. Your dislike of videos or any sort of public speaking for that matter isn't your fault. Society's done a real number on you. You've been charged a "don't-be-too-much" tax your whole life. School, magazines, parents, society... all drip-feeding the same message: shrink, stay quiet, don't show off. No wonder showing up on camera feels terrifying. It's not weakness. It's decades of conditioning. And once you see it for what it is, you can start undoing it. In this episode, I'm joined by brand photographer and visibility strategist Abi Moore, and we are getting into it. We're talking about why so many brilliant women are hiding online, why selling feels icky when it really doesn't have to, and why the thing standing between you and your next client probably isn't your skills... it's your silence. Here's what we cover: 🧠 Why your fear of showing up isn't a personality flaw... it's a billing error You didn't arrive at this fear on your own. It was built into you. And understanding that is the first step to undoing it. 🎯 Why trying to appeal to everyone is killing your chances You are not a beige wall. Niche down, speak directly, and the right people will find you already half sold before they've even said hello. 📹 Why done beats perfect... every single time Accept it'll go wrong. Expect to forget your words. Do it anyway. Imperfect visibility beats perfect silence. Nobody didn't hire you because your hair was a bit flat. If you've been telling yourself you'll start showing up properly once everything's a bit more polished, a bit more ready, a bit more whatever ... this episode is your sign to stop waiting.

12. The Algorithm Hates Me! How To Create Content That Gets Clients

Stop Blaming the Algorithm Is the algorithm really the problem… or is it just the perfect excuse to stay invisible? Welcome to another episode of The Wanky Thoughts Podcast! Today I'm getting stuck into something I've been hearing so much lately everyone moaning about the algorithm. LinkedIn hates me. Instagram's got it in for me. Nobody's seeing my posts. Sound familiar? I'll be honest, the glory days where you put a post out and the whole world saw it are over and I get why. But if you're scaling your business and you're terrified to be visible, you don't know what to say, or you're convinced that selling makes you sound pushy and salesy… the algorithm isn't actually your problem. I'm calling it out in this one. Tune in if you're ready to stop hiding behind the algorithm excuse and finally show up.

11. Why You're Not Showing Up (And It's Not Your Fault) with Tim Buckle

You know what you need to do. Get on camera. Pitch your offer. Put yourself out there. And yet… you don't. In this episode, I sit down with Tim Buckle from Chimp Management to talk about the voice that's louder than logic and what to actually do about it. We cover • Why fear of visibility isn't weakness - it's your brain doing exactly what it's designed to do •The old stories quietly running your business (and how to rewrite them) •The 1 in 5 rule that will stop you losing sleep over people who don't buy •Why selling feels pushy and how to make it feel natural instead My lightbulb moment: I used to think the version of me dancing round the kitchen to Miley Cyrus before a sales call was some kind of performance. Tim told me I was wrong. That is you -before your chimp gets in the way. That alone is worth the listen.
