🍰 Quote from the Episode
“True confidence isn’t the clapback , it’s the calm”.
Ever feel like you’re losing your spark? one day you love your work, and the next you feel drained or ready to quit? Whether in business, a 9–5, or even your relationships, these cycles can make you question your path. But here’s the truth: you’re not failing just because it feels hard right now.
In this episode of A Peace of Cake, we explore the Rule of Thirds; a mindset shift that shows why you won’t love it all the time and why that’s okay. You’ll learn how to navigate the natural cycles of success: the highs that inspire you, the neutral days where you just get it done, and the lows that test your patience.
This perspective will transform how you see your business, career, personal growth, and relationships. By the end, you’ll know how to stay grounded during the hard third and keep moving forward with confidence. Success isn’t about avoiding the struggle , it’s about riding the cycle without losing yourself. Tune in 🍰
Do you ever find yourself wishing you were more confident? in conversations, in your work, or in chasing your dreams? Too often, we believe confidence is something you’re either born with or not. But the truth is, self-confidence isn’t a gift, it’s a skill, and you can train it.
In this episode of A Peace of Cake, we dive into three practical, life-changing ways to build unshakable confidence: persistence, positive self-talk, and the power of teaching confidence to others. You’ll learn why repetition beats perfection, how your inner dialogue can make or break you, and how empowering someone else is one of the fastest ways to strengthen your own belief.
By the end, you’ll see that confidence isn’t about pretending, it’s about practicing. You’ll walk away with actionable tools to stop negative self-talk, embrace persistence, and carry yourself with a belief so strong that others can’t help but believe in you too. Tune in 🍰
Have you ever felt guilty about wanting to change directions? Maybe you chased a dream for years, only to wake up one day and wonder if it still belongs to you. Or maybe you’ve been pushing through difficulty, not sure if it’s just a temporary test or a sign that this path is fundamentally out of alignment.
In this episode of A Peace of Cake, we explore the fine line between quitting and staying. You’ll learn why you don’t owe your younger self a life you no longer want, how to recognize when you’ve walked through the wrong door, and the powerful difference between difficulty that grows you and misalignment that drains you. This is the perspective shift that will help you stop feeling stuck and start walking in freedom.
By the end, you’ll see that pivoting isn’t failure it’s wisdom. And staying isn’t weakness it’s alignment. The key is knowing which one is right for you, right now. Tune in, reflect deeply, and give yourself permission to choose the path that truly fits. 🍰

In this episode of A Peace of Cake, we’re diving deep into the Law of Cause and Effect, one of the most powerful universal principles. I’ll show you how to recognize the causes you’re unconsciously setting in motion, and more importantly, how to use this law to consciously create results that align with your highest good.
