About Free To Be
One cold Wednesday, the last of my natural confidence vanished. Although successful professionally, a shocking personal twist of fate left me doubting my abilities and my identity. I was broken. At 16 I was identified at gifted, at 21 I was a board director, by 35 flourishing in HR with clients like Coca Cola, Deakin Uni and government. But by 45 I’d added DV and homelessness. Cue the cold Wednesday. Coaching thousands of exceptional, busy humans to peak performance has taught me that while our stories and talents are spectacularly unique, the hurdles that stop us are shockingly common. And surmountable. So how is it that some seem FREE TO BE while others long to be? FREE TO BE is an indulgent opportunity to ask my extraordinary guests how they’ve managed it. And to share the best of what I’ve learned, with you. I'm grateful to have you with me. Because your life is yours to live. Don’t we all deserve to be FREE TO BE?

One Mum's ADHD Diagnosis & New Career
In this episode of Free to Be, I sit down with ADHD Coach Caroline Beresford to explore the reality of growing up with ADHD—and the impact it can have on self-belief and identity. 🌱 What surprised me most? The encouragement deficit many young people with ADHD face, compared to their peers. This lack of positive reinforcement, often starting in childhood, can feed into a lifetime of self-doubt, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. Caroline opens up about her own journey with ADHD, sharing how she’s turned her lived experience into a powerful career path, helping others break free from the limitations imposed by outdated narratives. If you’re looking for real, relatable insight into how ADHD affects not just focus, but confidence, this episode is for you. Tune in for an eye-opening conversation that might just change the way you view ADHD—and yourself. 🔥 Much love, Cath 🎧 Follow the FREE TO BE Podcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/freetobe.thepodcast/ Follow ME On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nolancatherine/ On Insta: https://www.instagram.com/ms.catherine.nolan Website: https://cathnolan.com/ My book, The Did Great Habit is out now: https://www.amazon.com.au/Great-Did-Habit-Confidence-Strength/dp/1716493773 Take the conversation deeper in the Corporate Goddess Facebook Group www.facebook.com/groups/corporategoddess/ Have you left a review for our new podcast?

Get a 10% Pay Rise in 10 Days
What if I told you, you could increase your hourly rate without even talking to your boss? 💡 In this episode, we’re diving into the reality that working women often carry a greater workload at home AND at work, than men do. Here’s the kicker: Women are already earning less per hour compared to men. But when you factor in the widespread additional unpaid labour, our hourly rate drops even further. So how do we change that? I’ll be sharing three powerful strategies to pull back on those unpaid hours (especially the wasted ones!) and immediately boost your effective hourly rate – without ever walking into a salary negotiation. 🏆 This episode is your guide to: Identifying where your unpaid hours are slipping away. Cutting down on unnecessary work. Getting strategic about your time to increase your hourly rate by 10% in just 10 days. It’s time to claim back your time and get paid what you’re worth, starting today. Join me for this practical, action-packed episode and see how quickly your effective hourly rate can rise! 💪 Take the conversation deeper in the Corporate Goddess Facebook Group www.facebook.com/groups/corporategoddess/ (http://www.facebook.com/groups/corporategoddess/) Follow the FREE TO BE Podcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/freetobe.thepodcast/ (https://www.instagram.com/freetobe.thepodcast/) Follow ME On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nolancatherine/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/nolancatherine/) On Insta: https://www.instagram.com/ms.catherine.nolan (https://www.instagram.com/ms.catherine.nolan) Website: https://cathnolan.com/ (https://cathnolan.com/) My book, The Did Great Habit is out now: https://www.amazon.com.au/Great-Did-Habit-Confidence-Strength/dp/1716493773 Have you left a review for our podcast yet?

How to Attract Advocates
“Mentors give you advice; advocates give you access” – but HOW do you get these advocates? I’ve worked with countless brilliant leaders who THINK that they’ve attracted advocates like magnets by sheer luck… but it’s not luck. It’s completely decodable and repeatable and you can do it too. I’ll show you how in this episode. But why would you want to? Because women with ADVOCATES are FIFTY PERCENT more likely to reach stellar heights than those who don’t have advocates. And because ADVOCACY opens up a world of career freedoms that flow into life freedoms. Listen in, I think you’ll be sold. ***************** Join the conversation in the Corporate Goddess Facebook Group www.facebook.com/groups/corporategoddess/ Follow the FREE TO BE Podcast on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/freetobe.thepodcast/ Follow ME on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/ms.catherine.nolan Website: https://cathnolan.com/ (https://cathnolan.com/) My book, The Did Great Habit is out now: https://www.amazon.com.au/Great-Did-Habit-Confidence-Strength/dp/1716493773

Skills V. Strengths
Could you tell me your greatest, unique talents? For most working women, this question is met with immense discomfort and a feint shrug. For the confident few, the strengths they list are usually a carbon copy of the ones they THINK they’re supposed to have. Those are skills they’ve cultivated. But what are the strengths that make you unique? The ones that really sit in ‘superpower’ category? Getting closer to unpacking THOSE strengths is a game changer. Buckle in my friend, we’re getting tactical. Let’s change the game. ***************** Take the conversation deeper in the Corporate Goddess Facebook Group www.facebook.com/groups/corporategoddess/ Have you left a review for our new podcast?
