Your life, your creation - break the mold on Average and become Audacious

Creating magic through action

My mission

Is to encourage taking messy action despite having big feelings. If you've ever been described as emotional, overly sensitive or in your head you’ll want to listen up! Because in action you’ll find your magic. And when that happens you create unwavering self-belief and resilience allowing you to:

✨bring your ideas to life with certainty and conviction

✨withstand difficulties and maintain resilience

✨inspire and motivate yourself to pursue and attain your goals 

Culminating in a life that is motivating and satisfying by simply being a part of it.

Engage the power of your mind to empower and unlock the potential hidden below your self-doubt.

My Fear Story

  • For years, I battled self-doubt, striving for perfection while fearing failure. Waiting to feel ready. Waiting for someone to save me. At 37, I had a colossal realisation moment. I was possibly halfway through my life - but I hadn't pursued half my dreams. I knew somewhere inside me, buried by my doubts and fears my potential was still there. It was waiting to be set free yet my limited time was slipping away.

  • If no one was coming to save me then it was up to me. At that moment I had no idea how to save myself. Even though I was clueless of what to do I just knew I had to find a way. I made an audacious choice — I took action before feeling ready and it was scary as hell. Turning away from self-help books and traditional therapies, I signed up to study counselling. My quest was to unravel the understanding behind my doubts, to dig deep into the roots and rewire my own brain. My existing mental patterns weren't serving me and I wanted more from my life. I wanted to unleash my potential before my time was up and I was filled with the pain of regret.

  • My journey was no easy feat. I used courage as my compass and messy action became my daily mantra. I confronted the demons of my self-doubt, peeling away layers to expose the core of my fears. I navigated the maze of my thoughts and feelings becoming acutely aware of their impact on my actions. I accepted my current state and my role in being there. Through my self exploration I discovered the magic that happens by taking action. I realised the power to change my thoughts and feelings lay in my hands, and the more they shifted, the more action I could take.

  • I used this blueprint to cultivate courage and unshakable self-belief. I discovered the strength and resilience that came through recognising my inherent worth. And then I used the power of my imagination to unleash my potential. I am living testament to the transformative power of courage, awareness, acceptance and relentless messy action.

And I have only just begun discovering my unlimited potential.

In 2021 I started Mind Control Counselling because I have to share this Blueprint to upgrade the mind.

My unshakeable Self-belief means I show up for myself the best I can everyday knowing that I am going to be just fine.

I have climbed harder at age 41 then ever before because I am no longer afraid of failing.

I am forging stronger and more fulfilling relationships because I know I am worth some else’s time and love.

I have committed to a further 10 years of study to requalify as a psychologist because it doesn’t matter how long it takes, it is something I want to do.

I am fucking living my life.

That little fire of potential inside me is burning so bright that I am genuinely so excited about what magic I am going to create next.

I hold qualifications in Counselling from the Australian Counselling Association, along with additional certificates in Sport Psychology and Coaching from the Australian Health Association.

And I glow, everyday I get to show up in this business.

This is exactly what I want to help you with - but don’t worry - you don't have to become a counsellor just to learn how. I have done all the hard work by creating the blueprint for you. 

Ultimately, as counsellors, we can’t fix you. Because you don’t need fixing. Instead we create a supportive and collaborative space where we challenge the beliefs you hold about yourself. Allowing you to explore, understand, and embrace your inherent value.

Our unique mix of therapies eliminates that sense you need fixing. And we can attest to their effectiveness because we've tried and tested them on the most useful guinea pigs of all time—ourselves!

Our Beliefs

At Mind Control, we defy average with a unique blend of unfiltered truths and unmatched support in our counselling approach. We firmly believe in facing realities to progress, offering a supportive space until you're ready to recognize your worth and confidently handle challenges.

We believe you can have big feelings and still take action.

Through a blend of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, we assist you in rewiring thought patterns, enabling you to reframe your experiences. This liberation from self-imposed mental constraints unveils a world of boundless power and possibilities.

We use the following concepts to discover the potential that lies below your fears and doubts; 

Awareness

Acknowledging that your personal growth begins with a deep understanding of your actions and taking full responsibility for the role your actions play in the outcome.

Acceptance

Embracing yourself with empathy and understanding is a deep dive into acceptance.  Cultivating self-compassion is a simple process to acknowledge both strengths and areas for growth.

Action

This concept is not about flawless execution but about the courage to take steps, even if they are messy or imperfect. It acknowledges that true readiness often comes through experience and prioritising the journey over the destination.

Imagination

It's not just about creative thinking; it’s a source of strength and resilience. It's a tool for nurturing a positive mindset, involving envisioning possibilities, maintaining optimism in the face of challenges, and cultivating perseverance.

These concepts collectively form a foundation for Unshakeable Self-belief, emphasising self-awareness, self-acceptance, courageous action, and the power of imagination in fostering a mindset conducive to growth and resilience.

I am a climber, reader, runner, sourdough baker and I live in a van in Spain

Right now I am taking on my dreams with my lovely man. We both have audacious climbing goals and in 2022 we took messy action. We moved to Spain, bought a van and now live in the car park below whatever crag is in season. And we don’t regret a thing! 

I am now a doer. A sometimes messy, often imperfect, fucking scary at times action girl. And I have never felt more fulfilled and aglow. From having put my life on hold due to self-doubts, I now derive insane amounts of joy from the process of just getting in the ring and having a go. And while the destination still remains the goal, I have no fear of the journey and I don’t let my imagination run away with possible scary outcomes. 

Some days I still blow my own mind with the audacious shit I get up to or how I can calmly absorb others' doubts without letting them affect me.  But the real game-changer - the one that has really got me living - is my Unshakeable Self-belief. This isn't to say I never grapple with self-doubts or that the negative voice never surfaces. It does, but I've learned to take those thoughts with a rational grain of salt and can now consciously decide whether they are serving me.
