Do you have someone you follow religiously on social media, someone you connect with so much that it’s awkward to think they have literally no idea who you are? Good, me too! There’s a business coach in LA I’ve been following for the past few months and I never...
The biggest mistake I see people making with their website is that they haven’t thought through their conversion strategy. Think of your website as a shopfront. Now imagine you have 5 people outside the shopfront that are all selling different products from your...
What a week. Isn’t it funny how we receive the exact things we need based on what's been on our minds? This week, everything has just felt hard. I think it’s the cumulative effect of so much change and uncertainty that after a while wears you down. And with Ireland...
This year has been a year of rapid growth here at KC and if there’s one thing I’ve learned it’s that if you’re not organised and able to delegate? You’re likely destined to tear all your hair out and if you can resist the urge, whatever's left will be grey. That or...
Hey Name, When I moved to Maroubra 6 months ago, I was set on learning to surf since I live 2 minutes from the beach. So of course I bought a board and a wetsuit and I was ready to go. I did a couple of lessons and picked it up pretty quickly but then the weather...
I recently did a personal development retreat in Byron Bay after hearing Blake Mycoskie of TOMS Shoes rave about it on the Tim Ferris podcast - and it more than lived up to the hype! Do you ever do something that completely shifts your perspective? So much so that...
A couple of months ago my husband and I jumped on the lockdown puppy bandwagon and added the most adorable french bulldog, Iggy, to the family. I may be biased but she is the cutest puppy around - and the cheekiest too. She will run in the opposite direction when...
Ah Covid. If there’s one good thing to have come out of this epidemic, it would have to be the innovation in transitioning your brand to digital. If you were used to selling from a physical store, sending paper invoices or taking all your meetings face to face then...
I hope you're having a wonderful week so far and enjoying autumn. I absolutely love autumnal weather, there's something so cosy yet refreshing about the season that I adore. Maybe it's the fact I can walk about without a. melting or b. having to layer up with a jacket...

Can you believe it's already March? I feel like this year has flown on by already and things have certainly been keeping us on our toes here in the studio. As things get busy in life and in work, it's so easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of day to day...
You know what one of my pet peeves is ? I’m VERY all or nothing. I’m either going to yoga five days a week and juicing or doing nothing at all. Because if I can’t do it all, what’s the point? Of course logically I am aware doing something is better than...
Comparisonitis (n) Comparing all of your flaws to everyone else’s best bits in order to make yourself feel completely and utterly sh*t. Yup, we’ve all had it at one point or another! And it is the worst feeling. Not only does it make us feel crap – it is also a...
A couple of weeks ago, I dug out my trainers and gave City2Surf a red hot crack! I’m not a runner by any means so I found I was relying on the adrenaline and surroundings to keep me on track and distract me from counting down the minutes left to run. Even though...
I was at a networking event the other week and started talking to a really lovely and established business coach that had just started her own podcast. It sounded great and I asked her for her business card so we could stay in touch and as she handed it over to me, I...
In the past few months, Niall and I have entered the big bad world of property as we have been searching for our first home together. Every week, I put together a spreadsheet (OCD, I know!) of all the places on our list and a schedule for the back-to-back viewings we...

“How do you add a background onto IG videos?” “How do I add subtitles over my video file?” “I’m a pretty confident person, but as soon as I see that little black lens, I panic. Help!” These are just a few of the questions I get asked every single week on instagram!...

Trick or treat! Just kidding, it’s always a treat to chat to you—obviously—but in the spirit of Halloween, I wanted to return the favour and sweeten the pot cauldron: I’m handing out KC lollies this week! Okay, so it’s not actual lollies. And it’s...

This week I'm coming to you for a little cafe listening to the rain hammer down outside around me and it kind of makes me nostalgic for home but in a nice way! ☘️ So before I leave you to make a dash as soon as a dry spell appears, I want to leave you with a question...

I looked around at other CEOs and influencers and they all seemed to have this epic life or death moment of quitting their jobs and flying to Bali or having some sort of illness that made them change their life and I just thought.. nothing that epic or dramatic has...
Over the past couple of years in my business, I have tried everything you can imagine to stay creative and in flow. From batching content creation to organising my calendar into different categories to experimenting with meditation at different times of the day. And...

If there's one question I get more than any other it's what to say on social media. More specifically, what to say about your product or service on social media AKA selling (shock, gasp!) People really have a way of winding themselves up over the concept and generally...

A couple of weeks ago, we started a weekly Live video over on instagram called Weekly Wine Down where we answer all your biz and brand questions while - you guessed it - winding down over a glass of vino! And last week a very interesting question came up about the F...

You know that feeling of familiarity when you mess up, but painfully realise you have been here before (more than once)? This was me all of last week. Run down, a bit burnt out and wondering how I’ve managed to end up feeling like this. What’s ironic about the...

A couple of years ago, I was on a huge health kick after reading The Beauty Detox Solution by Kimberly Snyder (if you’re into nutrition, it is a must read!) Anywho, one day I was busy cooking all weekend making dinners and treats to keep me going through the week...
Who would have thought launching a online program could distract you so much you forget to breathe! “Ok now breathe into my hand”, my chiropractor said placing his hand on my stomach. “Hmm nope you’re still not doing it, try again” As it turns out, my body had...
Kate asks, “How do I create a Favicon and add it to my website?” A favicon is an icon that you use in the top left corner of your website. It sits in the left corner of the area your domain is located. It is one of those small details that can really set you...

When I first moved to Sydney 6 years ago, I had no understanding of nutrition whatsoever. I was one of those annoying people growing up with a fast metabolism and so ate all sorts of junk and it never really affected me. Fast forward a few years and a move to...
Using video I know I’ve just done a whole mini masterclass about this but looking back to just 6 months ago, I had never done one single video. In fact, I was absolutely petrified about the idea of it. So if I could go back, I’d probably give myself a loving...
I know you’ve heard this time and time again: you need to have a niche and know who your ICA is (that’s your ideal customer avatar, for anyone new to this game). We’ve all heard about it, but let’s be honest here. Nobody actually WANTS to spend their afternoon...
