I don’t know about you but I am feeling decidedly more chipper these last few weeks. Being able to see friends and loved ones (albeit from a social distance) hang out in the sun and get in the car to go somewhere has given me a huge boost in well being.

Business is really picking up too. I have really enjoyed hearing from biz colleagues who are seeing an upturn in client bookings and corporate work. I’ve got some very exciting projects on at the moment and am looking forward to some great things that are coming up.

But what if you aren’t experiencing the ‘new normal’ quite just yet? You may still be feeling in the thick of it, not sure what to do next what to focus on or how to take steps forward. 

If that’s you I hear you. 

I was on my friend and business mentor Jessica Lorimer’s podcast recently and was talking about the one thing that can help you really move forward and see the results you are really wanting to see. You can listen to the podcast episode here https://smartleaderssell.com/sls280-helen-packham-six-figure-success-series-with-jessica-lorimer/

It’s all about showing up.

I talk about this a lot but it’s the catalyst you need to be able to confidently get out there, share your story, connect and grow your audience and win more business.

I’m very passionate about it because I see so many of you struggling with it. 

Ultimately it can come down to:

  1. Clarity
  2. Energy
  3. Confidence


The thing that gets me the most is these blockers are preventing you from getting your voice and story out there, making an impact and causing the double ripple. Where your own personal journey of growth and transformation can help others!

I want to give you a loving shove in the right direction, so here are a few tips to help you clear those blockers and start showing up with ease, energy, clarity and confidence. 

If your blocker is clarity
Take a few steps back and ask yourself: 

  • Has your story evolved?
  • Are you getting stuck with your ideal client audience because they may have changed?
  • Are you honing in on your exact area of expertise and strength? Retracing your steps back through the foundational work on  who you are, what you do, what your story is and who you help can really remove those blockers. 

If your blocker is energy
T​ake some time to pause and ask yourself:

  • Am I getting the sleep I need to perform at my best?
  • Is my morning and evening routine still strong?
  • Is there anyone in my life that is draining my energy?
  • Is there a situation that is draining my energy?
  • How can I do more of the things that give me energy?
  • How can I reconnect with the energy of my big why?
  • What am I doing this all for?

If your blocker is confidence
Take some time to reflect and ask yourself:

  • What is the one thing I need to know in order to feel more confident?
  • What beliefs do I have about myself that are affecting my confidence?
  • What healthy behaviours will help me stay in my own lane and focus on myself?
  • What small step can I take today to tap into my confidence?
  • Why do I do what I do?
  • What has led me here?
  • What evidence do I have that I know what I’m talking about?
  • What beliefs do I have about myself that are affecting my confidence?
  • What healthy behaviours will help me stay in my own lane and focus on myself?
  • What small step can I take today to tap into my confidence?
  • Why do I do what I do?
  • What has led me here?
  • What evidence do I have that I know what I’m talking about?



It might be just one area. It might be all three. Hopefully these questions can help you shift those blockers and get yourself out there.

Need help?

Part of my 121 work with clients explores this deep work. For me it all starts with your story. If you need help writing (or rewriting) your story, you may benefit from my mini story intensive. 

I’ve been running a few of these lately and absolutely love the clarity, confidence and energy that comes from it. If you live near the Brighton area or are happy to travel we can also have it in my garden (socially distanced of course.)

The story intensive is £547 for pre work, a two hour mini intensive complete with a strategy to share your story and 2 weeks follow up support. Off the back of the success of last month’s offer, I am also offering Virtual Speaking Pro for just £57 if you sign up before 30th June. You can find out about VSP here. https://helenpackham.com/virtual-speaking-pro/

If you’d like to book this offer I have one place left in June and two in July. Just hit reply if you have questions or would like to grab one.

It’s time to show up!

Much love
