What if the key to your next big leap isn’t another strategy but how you see yourself?

In this episode of WTF? Where’s the Fun?, we sit down with mindset and transformation coach Catherine Farquharson for a juicy conversation about identity shifts, self-image, and how to rewrite the internal programming that’s quietly shaping your results.

Catherine reveals how your self-image is the real driver behind your income, impact, and overall success. Too often, entrepreneurs focus on the external– impact, strategy, or business growth– without realizing that in order to expand, your self-image needs to evolve to match the next level. We dive into how rewiring your self-image can help you break through those income ceilings and amplify your impact on the world.

In this episode, we dive into:

✨ Why your identity often lags behind when stepping into new roles—and how to bridge that gap.
✨The surprising connection between self-expression, impact and money (and how to align them in a heart-centred way).
✨ How to rewire subconscious beliefs so your big goals feel exciting and playful, not overwhelming.
✨ The truth about money paradigms and why your earning potential is truly limitless.
✨ The ripple effect of living unapologetically—and inspiring others to do the same.

This conversation will leave you with practical tools and a renewed sense of confidence to evolve your self-image and align your inner being with the success you know you’re capable of—and have fun doing it.

From navigating career transitions to rocking bold colours and driving dream cars, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired to show up as your truest self. Get ready to lead with even more authenticity, fun, and ease.
