My Story

Meet Sian

I didn’t always have this business or this life. In fact, a few years ago you could have found me working myself into the ground becoming a computer addicted coffee chugging fierce, fearful intensely driven person. Someone who was a people pleaser and had forgotten how to have fun and how to switch off from work.

Neglecting my relationships, my fitness and my well-being and putting clients’ needs before my own 24/7.  I would represent people that had no idea of boundaries or how to maintain healthy relationships with those that they work with. We are all mirrors and as a recovering workaholic and people pleaser, my game changer has been all about boundaries and learning to love the word no.

I care a lot it’s my thing! (It always has been). Now I focus on how I can protect my clients whilst promoting them. Supporting them to maintain success with real balance, systems and the best team around them.

When we work in a service industry serving people with energy, time, expertise, experience, wisdom, teaching, coaching, guidance … often boundary issues are predominant.

We all need to be taught and re-taught routinely that boundaries make us brilliant!

The most truly successful people I know are the happiest ones. They know what balance means to them and maintain this with boundaries. Plus every pilot needs an epic flight crew around them to let them know if their one plane wing is dipping a little too much in the water.

My reputable clients have longevity in business, and career success and have invested wisely in both relationships and wealth management. These are the individuals who love people and use things. They understand that time is the most valuable thing and in order to protect that their boundaries must be robust.

You cannot show up 24/7 brilliantly, you are human we all need rest and recovery to maintain wellbeing and balance. How you choose to show up magnetises what shows up for you. Energy transference matters and we need to be responsible for the energy, we bring to others.

Without boundaries, you can stay on a merry-go-round of bad habits and health.

To support you with setting boundaries alongside your goal and intention setting, here are some things to remember

 

  • Choose discomfort over resentment, no is gold
  • What you say no to in business is just if not more important than what you say yes to
  • If it’s not good for me, it’s not good for them
  • If it’s not a hell yeah, it’s a no thanks
  • If in doubt cross it out
  • Every choice you make should nourish you
  • When you say no to others, you are saying yes to you
  • Clutter removes clarity
  • Busy blocks productivity
  • High emotion impacts design making
  • Burnout blocks stamina and longevity of success
  • Fresh thinking creates virtuoso masterpieces
  • Bandwidth is needed to innovate
  • Don’t get distracted by things that have nothing to do with your goals
  • The most successful people say no often and limit distractions to their creative flow

Now you can probably find me doing one of my favourite things: Mostly making moves, be that running in the morning whilst listening to audible, The school of greatness podcast or Mindvalley. Or doing a Tracy Anderson class, t25 or Yoga with Adrienne!

Talking about big new business plans and future goals with my epic husband Ash (AJ) who grounds me and is the king of essentialism, frugality and investment and financial planning.

Or out exploring with our two gorgeous chihuahuas who I love dearly Coco (a little angel) and Rio (who needs an ASBO)

I love healthy hangouts with my bestie Cat and close tiny treasured circle of friends, breath-work and meditation or sipping a great coffee roaster’s black coffee or oat milk cap.

I will get ridiculously excited about my clients’ successes if they got awarded a CBE, Got accepted on Dragons Den, quadrupled their income or landed a Netflix show. Pulling off a multi-million-pound sponsorship deal or helping nurture a client pipeline via clever tactics and it comes to fruition faster than planned.

Want to know what lights me up? What makes me stay? What makes me keep doing what I do after over 15 + years in business?…. it’s that. The buzz I get off helping other people WIN!

It’s a two-way street though there must always be more pleasure than pain in a professional relationship. Otherwise creators like me, well we walk away.

It’s being part of the change… changing people’s outlook on their future happiness.

Via habits, connections, placement, tactics, campaigns and visibility.

It’s seeing clients light up with self-belief and celebration.

You see ideas are a dime a dozen. I’ve heard thousands of great ideas, that never happen.

It’s the execution that matters and that big bit everyone forgets in-between strategy and execution it’s integration, it’s conducting the work plan like an orchestra and keeping everyone playing so that what’s delivered is unforgettable.

It’s how you keep moving forward and stay motivated and on track to get the goals.

I create and can support you all the way on this journey with a bespoke strategy and 1.1 success coaching and strategy implementation … should I have space on my books and should you need it.

Simple but proven action steps, that’s how we are going to make this happen for you and your business!

A favourite quote of mine is below!

“Listen to the mustn’ts, child. Listen to the don’ts. Listen to the shouldn’ts, the impossibles, the won’ts. Listen to the never haves, then listen close to me… Anything can happen, child. Anything can be.”

― Shel Silverstein

I’d love a bespoke plan.

Who cares wins the long race, when it comes to building a brand that continually sells.

There will always be challenges and changes but it’s how you react to these and how you adapt and how you treat others and maintain relationships that matter most of all.

Business is all about people, all about relationships and depth of connection and honest, meaningful communication.

When you get that, you get business and you keep business.

What lights you up?

Tell me here, I’d love to know!
