Who it is for

If any of these sound like you, start here.

  • “Why don’t I just stop doing it?”Find out how your emotions are formed, and why knowing is not the same as changing.
  • “I have many great ideas and act on almost none of them.”You find which area of your life the block sits in, and where you feel it.
  • “I’m putting in a lot of work, and not improving.”This goes past understanding, to what is still holding on.
  • “I did not know where to start.”Three short steps give you one clear place to begin.

I hear you

I have tried it all, and it is just not shifting.

The books, the courses, the talking it through, more than once. You understood it, and something still holds.

The block is held by parts of you that learned it to keep you safe. Thinking is not what set it, so thinking alone cannot set it down. It starts with finding where you hold it.

After the mini course

It is time to stop feeling stuck, and evolve forward.

Once the mini course has shown you what is holding you back, you can try a session for yourself. This is what people said after theirs.

“It’s actually transformative.” Full clip: I’m going to shout out my friend James, who runs a platform and coaching brand. It’s called Expansion Works, and it’s really to help creative people unblock the things that are holding them back. He’s booked and busy and doing absolutely brilliant things. And he’s a really lovely person. It’s not like traditional talking therapy. It’s, you know, go in, neutralise a moment or an issue that’s holding you back. And yeah, it’s actually transformative. Check out Expansion Works.

From nerves to a 30-minute keynote

Lydia's Instagram story from her keynote, the stage and her captions: While I've done lots of panels, this was my first 30 min keynote on building a sustainable brand and issues within the current fashion model. And as a slight worrier, this was really making me nervous. I talk pretty fast, often run out of breath and sometimes have no words in my brain. But it went sooo well!!! 3 things that really helped! 1. Lots of practice to know it all off by heart. From Lydia's newsletter: Expansion Works helped me move past some mental roadblocks in relation to my public speaking and confidence.
