DARE TO BE GREAT!
Do you feel as though there is MORE for you to experience, that you are ready to discover your what your next idea is and to make it your reality?
Then guess what? You are in the right place!
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO LIVE A LIFE OF PURPOSE AND NOT JUST LIVE YOUR LIFE?
It takes a willingness to step into the best version of yourself.
​
I have spent many years now learning to embrace my power.
I give generously, I am on-purpose, and I know how to communicate my boundaries with confident ease however it was when I decided that my life was not going to be just about business success and that I was ready to discover my why.
​
It takes courage. It takes letting go of the struggle that comes with a “I can’t” mentality into "anything is possible" mentality.
​
I get it. You’re a creative, multi-passionate leader who can envision an ideal world and you want to contribute in a meaningful way, but… there’s a misalignment you just can’t get past.
​
That's where I come in, to support you in living your Limitless Self.
I’m going help you, with both the strategy and the inner work… because I’ve been there.
MY MISSION & DISCLAIMER
So why am I known as The Courageous Inspirer.
​
I would say that it’s because I live my life with purpose, not just live a life.. Those that know me would say it’s because I am More Zena Than Princess…
​
Either way you look at it I have a thirst for adventure and unstoppable desire and mission to support you in doing those things in life that will light you up. I care about you becoming the best version of you by leading your life, family., community and business to a reality that includes adventure, fun and awesomeness.
​
I don’t have all the answers but what I do have is determination and belief that anything is possible if you want it enough…
​
I have what it takes to support you in finding your why. I'm here to support you to take the most important thing in life you can take, a breath, a breath of your awesomeness.
The Courageous Inspirer Story
From the age of 11, I had already endured more violence, instability, and uncertainty than most people experience in a lifetime. My mother was an unpredictable victim, and my father was absent. I learned to survive and stay safe by blocking out emotions. I believed that if I didn’t feel love, I couldn’t be hurt by it.
As a result, I grew into a woman who didn’t know love, didn’t trust others, and was always ready to do whatever it took to survive. I transitioned from being a courageous girl to becoming a courageous woman.
At 28, I had a life-changing experience when I lost a kidney inherited from my absent father—turning out to be not so absent after all. Two years later, I drove myself to the hospital, sensing something was wrong, only to be diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes (Insulin Dependent).
In that moment, I felt that perhaps these heartbreaking illnesses were a punishment for all that had happened to me as a young girl. Silently, I decided to hate myself and vowed to do whatever it took to succeed in life, disregarding love and happiness.
So, that's what I did…
​
In my late twenties, I became a 7-8 figure earner. I had it all: nice cars, beautiful houses, and successful businesses. I filled my life with alcohol, work, partying, and the relentless pursuit of being the best at everything. Over the next five years, I built one of the largest training and recruitment companies in Australia and earned over six degrees. Despite my external success and the inspiration I provided to others, I was living a life of internal pain.
​​
At 39, I had a son—completely unplanned. My body was tired, I wasn’t managing my chronic illness, and I was a functional alcoholic. Despite the challenges, I embraced the lesson and welcomed my son. I stopped working in my business four weeks before he was born and returned when he was ten weeks old.
What happened next might seem surprising, but for me, it was time to live truthfully.
I moved my two-year-old son and myself back to the Dandenong Ranges in Melbourne, Australia, in my mid-forties. This place gave me hope and peace as a child. I started a new life, gaining qualifications as a Naturopath, Nutritionist, and Master Fitness Trainer. I walked over 6,000 kilometres in the next 12 months, learning to navigate terrain and creating hundreds of hiking routes. I registered as a Tour Operator and started a hiking and fitness company called Hiked.
In 2016, I began to truly heal my soul. I allowed myself to love by loving my son and my new, chaos-free life.
The Courageous Inspirer was truly born. I had always been courageous, but not when it came to feeling my pain and allowing myself to process it. This is when I embraced personal growth. I knew about it but had avoided it, fearing it might penetrate my soul. It was time—my time. I plunged into the world of personal growth, facing every emotion that triggered me. The more painful it was, the more I leaned in.
I immersed myself in reading, meditation, subconscious programming, mindset practices, neuro-linguistic programming, and much more.
​
In 2020 when the Pandemic hit, I obtained my practitioner qualifications in Life, Business & Mindset Coaching, Timeline Therapy, and Hypnotism, followed by my Masters in NLP.
Today, I am a highly accomplished entrepreneur, a 6-7 figure success, an international best-selling author, and a Certified Life, Business & Mindset Coach, best known as The Courageous Inspirer.
I support women in business to live courageously with purpose by making their next idea their reality. My coaching programs are all about Clarity, Care & Courage.
