The session that made no sense… at first
Back in 2011 in the early stages of building my coaching business. I remember feeling stuck. So I invested in and booked a coaching session. For 90 minutes I sat there. It went over the allocated time, I was checking my watch wondering if it would ever end. As I […]
Your path to self‑actualisation starts here
Have you ever felt at the edge of a big transformation, you sense it but not sure what it will be? But you know it’s big. That moment, the crossroads of fear and courage, is where true self-actualisation and transformation begins. For years, I believed growth was about doing more, achieving more, […]
Before You Find It, Find You
People want purpose. They want to have a meaningful reason to be here. One of the challenges people face in their journey to purpose is a lack of identity. Not knowing who you are, what you need, and therefore, where you want to go? Losing your identity, or not knowing it, […]
Are you depriving yourself?
Deprivation comes in different forms. Maybe it’s not focusing on what you do have, instead, a constant focus on what you don’t have. Maybe it’s not allowing yourself to feel “positive” emotions (because God forbid you were to be above equilibrium and come crashing down). Or maybe it’s putting yourself in a dynamic […]
What 10 Sessions Can Shift When You Are Ready To Do the Inner Work
I often hear people say, “I feel depressed, anxious, frustrated, or I cannot stop the grief… and I just want these feelings to go away.” Back in 2016, I worked with a woman who described herself as a domestic violence survivor. She reached out because she did not want to live in fear […]

For a long time, I thought healing was something to work on. Unpack it. Understand it. Process it. Fix it. But there was a moment in my life that showed me something different. When I walked the Camino in 2016, I met a man named Philippe. We were walking together, and […]
The Slow Disconnection From Your Own Light
Ever felt like a fraud? That you are not quite who people think you are? That you are making it up as you go? In 62 studies with over 14,161 participants, the prevalence rates of impostor syndrome varied widely from 9% to 82%, largely depending on the screening tool and cutoff used to […]
Last year, I hit a wall
Last year, I hit a wall. After hours and hours of coaching sessions each week on Zoom, sitting in one place, barely blinking, eyes burning, body stiff and sore, I knew something had to change. Coaching has always moved something deep inside me. It’s been like a river of energy flowing through […]
I Want It All (Still)
Bonnie is now six. Six years of cheeky smiles, cuddles, chaos, and love. And five years since I started Maximum Growth. I still remember wondering how I could possibly run a business, continue private consulting, and be a Mum to this little one. Not to mention looking after myself, being in a relationship, seeing […]
The universe in me, sees the universe in you.
In the intricate dance of life, we find ourselves connected to the very essence of the universe. The same atoms that make up our bodies—hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen—are the same elements that make up the vast expanse of the cosmos. We live in the universe, and the universe lives within us. As […]
