You don’t have a marketing problem—you have a messaging problem.

Why brilliant women are getting crickets (and how to fix it fast)

You’re showing up.
You’re posting consistently.
You’re doing all the right things—at least that’s what the gurus told you to do.

So why are your posts getting nothing but crickets?
Why does it feel like your audience isn’t listening, your dream clients aren’t converting, and your marketing feels like shouting into the void?

Let me lovingly say this:
You don’t have a marketing problem.

You have a messaging problem.

And the good news?
Messaging is the easiest (and fastest!) thing to fix—when you know how.

💥 What Is Messaging, Really?

Your messaging is the bridge between your brilliance and your buyer.
It’s not just what you do—it’s how you communicate your value in a way that makes your dream clients say:

👉 “OMG. She’s talking to me.”
👉 “That’s exactly what I need.”
👉 “Where do I sign up?”

Marketing gets attention.
Messaging converts.

🚨 Here’s ...

From sunrise journaling to coaching by the creek—here’s what it really looks like to run a 6-figure business from paradise.

Running a business from paradise isn’t just a dream—it’s my reality.
But let’s be real: it’s not all ocean breezes and hammock time (though yes, there’s a lot of that too).

I’m a CEO, coach, creator, and mentor living life on my terms—from my treehouse nestled in the Whitsundays, with my three cheeky cavoodles and a whole lotta Mermagical energy.

Here’s a peek inside a typical day in my world as a Treehouse CEO—and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

☀️ 5:00 AM – Morning Magic & Mermaids

I’m up early—always. Not because I have to, but because it’s when I’m most alive. I take my cavoodles Ziggy, Harley, and Blazey on a sunrise walk to hit my 10K steps and soak in the golden glow of the Whitsundays.

There’s something powerful about starting the day in nature, barefoot on the earth, breathing in fresh mountain air while the ocean sparkles in the distance.

If your to-do list is growing and your results are shrinking, it might not be your mindset—it might be your tech stack.

Running a business today means wearing a lot of hats—especially when it comes to technology. From content to client management, the right tools can streamline your systems, automate the busywork, and help you grow faster.

But here’s the truth no one talks about…

Most entrepreneurs are sabotaging their own success by using the wrong tech.

Let’s talk about the 3 most common tech mistakes that are secretly killing your momentum—and how to fix them.

Mistake #1: Too Many Tools, Not Enough Systems

We’ve all done it. Signed up for free trials. Bought lifetime deals. Got shiny object syndrome every time a new app hit the market.

But more tools = more chaos.

Using 7 different platforms to do what 1 streamlined system could do is draining your time, energy, and bank account. Every extra login, every manual step, every tech hiccup… adds friction and stress.

What to do...

Running a business that scales with simplicity, flow, and freedom isn’t just about mindset—it’s about having the right tools in your back pocket.

After trying everything (and wasting time and money on tools that just didn’t fit), I’ve finally found my power trio:

✨ Kajabi – for marketing, emails, websites, landing pages, digital products and automation 🧠 Trello – for client management, content planning, and running my weekly rhythm 🚀 White Label Suite – for lead generation and done-for-you prospecting that brings in fresh connections daily

Here’s how these 3 tools work together—and why I recommend them to all my 10X clients.

1. Kajabi – My Digital Command Center 🧭

Kajabi is my all-in-one marketing platform. I use it to:

• Host my entire website and blog

• Run my email marketing (newsletters, automation sequences, and launches)

• Build and deliver my programs (like the 10X Club and 10X Reset)

• Create landing pages and opt-in funnels for freebies, lead magnets, and p...

The tech, tools & systems I use to simplify success, save time & scale with soul.

Let’s be real… building a business today without the right tech stack is like trying to build a sandcastle in a storm. 🌪️
You end up drenched, exhausted—and your castle? Gone with the tide.

After 20+ years in business (and more than a few tech meltdowns), I’ve finally found my dream team of tools that let me ditch the chaos, automate the hard stuff, and focus on what I do best—coaching, connecting, and creating impact.

Here’s my 10X-approved tech stack for running a streamlined, soul-aligned, scalable business (without wanting to throw your laptop out the window 💁🏻‍♀️).

📍1. Kajabi – My All-In-One Magic Portal

Use for: Courses, email marketing, website, landing pages, automations
Kajabi is the heart of my business. It houses my programs, sends my emails, automates my funnels, and looks gorgeous doing it. No patchy tech duct-taping here.

🗂 2. Trello – My Brain Outside My Body

The simple system to turn your message into money—and finally get seen, heard, and PAID.

If your content’s not converting, it’s probably NOT your offer.
It’s your message. 🧠⚡

You’re brilliant at what you do.
You’re pouring your heart into posts, reels, Canva carousels, and stories…
But the leads are ice cold, the engagement is flat, and you're wondering:

“WTF am I doing wrong?!”

You’re not alone. And more importantly—you’re not broken.

You just need a marketing system that works.

That’s exactly what we’ll create together inside the 10X Marketing Makeover Workshop on Monday, June 23 at 10AM AEST.

Because let’s be real—life gets chaotic. But these are the soul-led habits that keep me grounded, focused, and flourishing no matter what.

If you’ve ever felt like your world was spinning, your to-do list was screaming, and your brain couldn’t keep up—welcome to entrepreneurship (and womanhood, let’s be honest).

I’ve been there too.

Through heartbreak, burnout, weight struggles, parenting solo, and building multiple businesses—I’ve had to learn how to create structure that supports my soul.

Not just hustle habits.
Not just productivity hacks.
But rituals that reset me. Ground me. And help me rise—even on the messiest days.

These are my go-to 10X Rituals—the non-negotiables I come back to when life feels like a hot mess.

🌅 1. Mermaid Mornings

A soul-led start changes everything.

Before the noise of the day begins, I anchor into peace with my “Mermaid Morning Ritual.”
This includes:

• 10K steps at sunrise with my cavoodles

• Sipping my warm 10X Elixir (lemon, ginger, honey,

  ...

From rock bottom to radiance—the 10X Reset that changed everything.

Five years ago, I was at my heaviest—physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

My 20-year marriage had ended in heartbreak.
I was 55kg overweight.
Living on sugar, coffee by day, and wine—two bottles a night.

Which is wild when you consider I used to own 13 fitness clubs. But I was in full-blown survival mode. My health wasn’t on the back burner—it wasn’t even on the stove. I was cooking quick, heavy meals just to get by. Bloated. Exhausted. Stuck.

The First Spark

In the middle of that mess, something shifted.

I bought a Kangen water machine and did a 5-day water fast—releasing 8kg.
I started walking every day, sometimes 3 or 4 times, just to clear my head and feel sane again.
I wrote down my 5 Power Questions—a ritual that reawakened my clarity, confidence, and calm.

It wasn’t a transformation yet. But it was a spark.

Rebound + Wake-Up Call

Then life happened. Solo parenting. Hustle. Holidays. A sick son. And...

From Burnout to 10X Breakthroughs — One Soul-Led Reset at a Time

If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in the cycle of starting over—weight, mindset, energy, business—you’re not alone.
I know what it feels like to be exhausted, overwhelmed, and buried under your own brilliance.

And this is the story of how I changed it all.

Meet Kylie Thomson: From Fitness CEO to 10X Rebirth Mentor

Hey, I’m Kylie—aka Kick-Ass Kylie, your 10X Biz Bestie and founder of 10Xpreneurs.

I’m not your average business coach. I’m a barefoot, ocean-loving Mermaid Mumma from the Whitsundays with two teens, three cheeky cavoodles, and a big heart for helping brilliant-but-burnt-out women ditch the stress, reset their systems, and do LESS while making more.

But here’s what most people don’t see:
I once owned 13 fitness franchises… and still put on over 55 kilos.

My real transformation didn’t begin in the gym.
It started the moment I stopped starting over—and created my signature 10X Reset.
