Not everything we try lands. And that’s okay.

I’ve been coaching leaders and professionals for over two decades now and something I witness again and again is the sheer effort that goes unseen.

The job applications that go nowhere.

The proposals that get a polite no.

The ideas that don’t gain traction.

The promotions that are promised… then postponed.

The business dreams that feel so close and still don’t land.

What we don’t always talk about is how exhausting it can be to keep showing up, with confidence, with effort, with hope, especially when it feels like nothing is shifting.

And then, something clicks. The right opportunity finally lands.

But to the outside world, it looks like things just fell into place.

This is your reminder:

Most people you admire or perceive as “doing well” haven’t just been lucky.

They’ve been consistent.

They’ve kept trying, pivoting, falling forward.

They’ve stayed in the arena, even when it was lonely, frustrating, or disheartening.

And this doesn’t just happen to my clients.

It’s happened to me too. Many times.

I had to learn (the hard way) that I’m not going to win every gig, every time and that’s why it’s so important to have multiple proposals, conversations, invitations and opportunities in play.

Sometimes the no just means not this one.

Sometimes it means not right now.

But it never means you’re not good enough!

So if you’re in a season of ‘not yet’, I see you.

Please don’t confuse the silence for failure.

You’re not behind. You are building the best version of you.

And if you’re starting to reach your goals, I hope you take a moment to feel super proud.

Not just of the win, but of the grit it took to get there.

Here’s a question to sit with:

What’s one effort you’ve made, even if no one saw it, that you’re proud of?

PS. If you are fed up of feeling stuck, I have three personalised one-to-one coaching spots left this quarter, feel free to DM me.

My Morning Shout-Out Goes Out to my dear friend .

I haven’t just watched John grow from strength to strength over the last 15 years, I’ve had the absolute privilege of walking alongside him during various parts of his journey, as he’s elevated his mindset, energy and focus from the inside out.

He’s done the deep inner work that most shy away from.

And it shows.

In how he leads.

In how he shows up.

In the clarity he holds around his purpose and the legacy he’s building.

John is a brilliant blend of heart and head.

A fabulous people leader, a commercially sharp business mind and someone who genuinely and deeply cares.

About people.

About impact.

About doing the right thing, even when it’s hard.

His gorgeous family, his presence, his success, I assure you it’s not luck!

It’s the result of grit, intention and this unshakeable commitment to becoming the kind of leader and human others rise around and bring their best.

Proud of you, John!

The ripple effect is real!

Loved how you spotted Productivity Joy at the airport and snapped a pic straightaway to share with me.

Yay, it’s in the Guaranteed Good Reads!

Your business thrives because of you, but who’s making sure you thrive?

Running a business was meant to give you freedom, but instead, it’s left you juggling endless demands, racing against time and feeling like there’s never a moment to breathe.

The stress and overwhelm aren’t just exhausting, you know they’re holding you back from the success and joy you envisioned.

What if you could reclaim control, work smarter (not harder) and finally feel energised instead of drained?

I share how you can achieve more effectiveness and feel energised through the 5Q’s Formula, a science-backed, proven system to prime your mindset, emotions, thoughts, focus and behaviours for greater impact and joy each day.

Wonderful to feature in Business Builders online publication.

International Women’s Day – A Personal Reflection

I never thought I’d be a boy mum. I’ve always been such a girly girl, sharing a deep and special bond with my mother, filled with fun, love and wisdom.

I used to wonder: Who will I pass down my cherished jewellery too? The exquisite outfits my incredibly talented mum designed and tailored for me? (i know, quite fickle hey?!)

But over the years, I’ve come to understand that what truly matters isn’t what we leave behind in things, but in the values we pass on, especially to the next generation of men.

My role as a mother isn’t just about helping my boys see their own worth and strengths; it’s about shaping how they see and value the women in their lives. And that doesn’t happen through words alone—it’s in the actions we take every single day.

As many of you will know, I recently returned from a four-week overseas trip, my longest time away from my immediate family—travelling solo for my book launches, client work and speaking engagements.

And while I missed them, I had an absolute blast, without an ounce of mum guilt!! Can you believe it?!

Because my husband and our boys were fully on board, knowing this wasn’t just my journey, but our journey as a family.

These moments matter.

They send a message to our children, especially our sons, that women’s dreams, ambitions and contributions are important. That we can lead, create and achieve while being deeply connected to those we love.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have grown up in a home where my parents treated my brother and me as equals, investing in our education, supporting our dreams and never placing limitations on what we could become.

I now realise how much of a privilege that was, not in terms of wealth, but in being raised with love, respect and the foundational belief that gender should never define our potential.

This is why sharing our personal stories is so powerful.

They remind us that the future is shaped by the beliefs we pass down, the behaviours we model and the narratives we choose to create.

On this International Women’s Day, I’m reminded of something simple but profound: A bird cannot fly with one wing alone. It takes both wings—strong and balanced to soar.

The same is true for humanity!

Men and women are not in competition; just like the wings of a bird, we are meant to rise together, lifting each other up, honouring each other’s strengths and creating a world where both can thrive.

Because when we do, everyone wins.

This is to all the amazing women, boy mums, partners, husbands and incredible humans I know - who treasure the value of all human beings!

A special afternoon at .

Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to be invited to LinkedIn offices in Sydney and spend the afternoon with the fabulous Brendan Wong.

We dived into insightful conversations about my book, ‘Productivity Joy’ and explored how it equips professionals to build sustainable careers rooted in joy and impact.

From strategies and tools to combat burnout to actionable steps for thriving in work and life, the discussions and video filming were fun, thought-provoking and energising.

A huge thank you to Brendan for hosting me and for sharing his perspectives on the challenges and opportunities facing today’s workforce. Brendan shows up with authenticity, curiosity and always look to add value.

Part of my passion as a solopreneur is to continuously create relevant and engaging content for professionals and business owners looking to elevate their leadership effectiveness, so this was a wonderful opportunity to be where the action and impact is!

I love how LinkedIn and the people behind it, are always look to shape the way professionals connect, grow and thrive in a rapidly evolving world.

3) how to breakthrough the daily grind of survival to thriving in just 5 minutes each day.

Thank you Ticker News - my hope is this segment can inspire and equip many professionals, business owners, working parents etc to be even more effective and energised each day.

The Joy of Work World Tour Kicks Off This Month!

I’m thrilled to announce that our Joy of Work World Tour is launching this month, with our first stop is in Melbourne on October 23rd.

Tickets are selling fast, and we couldn’t be more excited!

The purpose of the Joy of Work Tour is to spread the mission of helping 5 million busy professionals shift from merely surviving the demands of work, home, and everything in between, to truly thriving each day.

We’re here to help professionals find more joy in how they work, connect, and lead others.

This mission is both urgent and critical. According to Mercer’s Global HR Talent Report, a staggering 82% of professionals worldwide are stressed,
overwhelmed, and on the brink of burnout.

This has far-reaching impacts—lowered productivity, reduced engagement, and diminished wellbeing—costing Australian organizations up to $60 billion annually.

When work doesn’t bring joy, it affects not only us but everyone we engage with.

That’s why the Joy of Work Mission is so vital—offering science-backed, proven tools to help you focus on what truly matters and experience more joy in your work, regardless of your role, level, or personal circumstances.

Now, imagine a world where 82% of professionals weren’t just surviving, but thriving.

Imagine the boost in relationships, results, and revenue that would follow.

Are you ready to support the Joy of Work Mission?

Here are three powerful ways you can get involved:

➡️ Attend one of our Joy of Work in-person events, happening in multiple countries.
➡️ Invest in your employees and teams by booking our Productivity Joy workshops.
➡️ Partner with us by becoming a sponsor of the Joy of Work mission, as WeWork has done, to help create thriving workplace cultures filled with joy and productivity.

Let’s make work a place of joy—for ourselves and for others.

You matter we matter and what we all do matters! - there has been no better time than now to take action and support the Joy of Work mission.

I’m stoked to have received incredible endorsements from some of the most wonderful humans I know for my book Productivity Joy.

One of those endorsements in the book is someone I have totally fangirled over for several years now!

You may have come across her, Shade Zahrai? ;-)

I first discovered Shadé Zahrai MBA LLB over 4.5 years ago on TikTok and Clubhouse while living in the UK.

Her ability to simplify complex psychology into relatable insights instantly drew me in. On Clubhouse, her presence would attract hundreds, and I quickly became a fan of her intelligence, charisma, and the way she engaged her audience.

Fast forward 2 years later, when my family and I migrated back to Melbourne, I was out for brunch with a very dear friend Kohyar Kiazad, we both worked together over a decade ago and had built a solid friendship.

He’s an amazing Psychology professor and was sharing with me that he’s supervising a select few of Phd students. He told me about one particular student, talking in awe of her dedication, work ethic and global impact. As I was hearing him speak he said, ‘Simi I think you have to meet her, you will have so much in common and I know you will both hit it off!’.

And then he shared who it was, to my complete amazement he was talking about Shade Zahrai.

He then listened for the next 20mins to my fangirling for Shade! Haha!

Over the last couple of years, I have got to know Shade, and can I attest she is an absolute gem of a person, someone I not only admire but also respect. Despite being over a decade younger than me, I have been greatly inspired by Shade’s work AND even more than that the person she is and how much without her knowing, she has helped me be a better version of myself (Question two of my 5Q’s Formula).

So, it’s been a real honour for me to have her read Productivity Joy, apply the 5Qs Formula, share her view on it, and now share it with the world.

Yay, after 4 years in the making, my book Productivity Joy is available for international release! 🎉

It’s hard to put into words how I feel.

Perhaps the best way is ‘on top of the world.’ 😉

And what better way to celebrate than to take the leap—literally.

I recently did a tandem skydive from 12,000 ft above the stunning snow-capped mountains and bright blue lakes of Queenstown. 🌍✈️

Yes, I was terrified. But also strangely excited. And somehow also calm at the same time.

I kept telling myself “Simi, you’ve got more chance of being struck by lightning than having an issue with the jump. And think how amazing you’ll feel afterwards.”

Sometimes, we have to talk ourselves into doing things we know will be good for us!

You can amuse yourself by watching my short video of my jump in the second comment below.

…

Anyway, I’m meant to be telling you how Productivity Joy is now available for pre-order. 😅

I’d love you to join me in my mission to help 5 million busy professionals move from surviving to thriving.

The key is to master what matters (and leave the rest). We just have to aim for 5% more joyful productivity each day.

The book is available now for pre-order. The link is in the top comments for all Australian orders. Orders for other countries will be available very soon too.

Much love and appreciation.

It’s coming .....

Four years in the making, and now it’s so close to being shared with the world.

Pinch me!!

Actually, just hug me!

Seeing my name on a book cover is something I dreamt of for two decades!

When I finally saw it, I couldn’t describe how I felt - overwhelmed, grateful, and excited all at once.

Back then, I wasn’t clear on what my book was going to be about.

But one thing I knew in my heart was that whatever it was, it needed to do one thing...

Transform lives!

I can’t wait to share my book with you; it’s been described as a ‘game-changer’, and it’s coming your way very soon.

Happy Friday :-)
