Workshop Testimonial
Jasmine Wilson,
Business Consultant
Unleash Your Vibe, Melbourne.

In June 2024, Caroline lead a developmental workshop"Who Do You Think You Are?"at the Aspire Leadership Summit in Bali. Set against the lush,
soul-stirring backdrop of the island,
we explored the power of self-awareness
and authentic expression as catalysts
for personal and professional growth.
The feedback from participants was profoundly moving many described it as a turning point in how they see themselves and how they choose to lead in the world.

✨ Happy Friday Ladies ✨
✨ I have Exciting NEWS! ✨

Back by popular demand!

I’m running my Pop-Up Workshop - Colour Me Beautiful!

Wednesday Feb 25 | Virtual Online Pop Up Workshop
8:00-9:00pm GMT
3:00-4:00pm US EST
7:00-8:00am AEDT (next day Feb 26)

Girls have you ever wondered…
Who are you in colour?

The truth is, your personal identity is more than a perfectly polished photos, or the latest social media trend.

It’s the energy you carry.

The presence you bring into a room and the essence that lingers long after you leave.

In this fun pop-up experience, you’ll discover the three colours that reflect your unique personality, amplify your presence, and align your outer image with your inner truth.

It’s about your inner identity.

It’s about building TRUE confidence.

It’s about showing up as the TRUEST version of you — in full colour.

Whether you are:

🌸Preparing for your first job interview after years
🌸Stepping back into the dating world
🌸Feeling lost in a sea of comparison on social media
🌸Or simply ready to reconnect with your sense of SELF
This workshop is designed especially for you.

Life ebbs and flows and we are constantly evolving as women. The good news is we can redesign ourselves at any time.

The most powerful transformation is learning how to be Confidently You from the inside out!

It’s not about external validation it’s about being True to You:

To reconnect with your essence identity.
To understand what that feels like.
To see what that looks like — in colour.

This is one of my most loved workshops because I witness the glow that comes women the moment they discover who they are in colour.

Come along. Recreate a new chapter.

Step fully into your inner beauty.

Spots are limited register below €33 per seat on first come bases.
https://www.flourishbydesign.co/event-details/colour-me-beautiful

It’s especially fun to do this workshop with a friend, as you can help each other discover and celebrate your inner beauty.

Super excited to see you there!

Have a wonderful weekend.

Much love
Caroline

WOW this year of the horse already has me whipped into shape!

Apologies for those who have met me at networking events and asked from my card!

It’s a bit like the runny joke about builders never working on their own homes. Designers are notorious for not having their own business cards designed 😂.

Feeling great having gotten that sorted eventually and updated which my new credentials of who I am now.

When I see you in person next I’ll have a nice printed version for you too.

Much love
Caroline

✨ Silence Revolution ✨
Your Pocket of Peace in a noisy world

I’m genuinely delighted and more than a little surprised by the feedback about this little book, especially because I thought it would have a very small audience. It’s a deep spiritual dive, revealing my inner experiences, yet people are saying it transmits a powerful sense of calm and inner peace.

I’m particularly amazed by how the younger generation has responded! Even my teens were taken aback they didn’t see this book coming from me…

My 18-year-old said, “Did you write this, Mam? It’s sick!” (which means cool), and my 20-year-old art college student, usually my harshest critic, said, “It’s really good, Mam!” and seemed completely absorbed in it.

This little book popped up out of nowhere, almost like magic but in truth, it has taken a lifetime of living to distill. It seems the younger generation found exactly what they didn’t know they needed a break from endless phones, a little private time… a pocket of peace.

I’m thinking if we take the phones away, what are they left with? Silence. Silence Revolution offers a sense of wonder in the nothingness of life.

My son even said:
“Mam, honestly I could see myself putting this in my pocket and heading to the park…”

Wow, I was more than surprised!

It goes to show the most magical things in life are never planned they just happen out of the blue, appearing suddenly and unexpected but making the biggest impact.

Whether you’re at home, at work, or out in the city, this book is designed to help you carry calm wherever you go.

Available now internationally on Amazon borrow or buy your copy today and find your own pocket of peace. 🕊️

The printed version will be available next week on Amazon, and I’ll have my own author copies for the launch… just sharing a little bit of magic. ✨

Love
Caroline

February 17th marks the start of the Year of the Horse! 🐎 A day of energy, freedom, and forward motion, the perfect moment to step into new possibilities. My new book ‘The Silence Revolution’ is my ode to humankind, a love letter, and a call out! to what is beautiful within you. It’s a journey inward, to the oasis within each of us, where clarity and solutions quietly await. My silent retreat asked: Can we innovate ourselves as a species in time? The answer I found was: Yes. Absolutely, we can and we will! because the power of love is far greater the love of power.

This book is a deep dive. Each page is a stepping stone along a pathway into silence and contemplation. I invite you to take it slowly, one page at a time, letting the words unearth your uniqueness, beauty, and power.

The eBook of ‘Silence Revolution’, offered off-grid through FlourishByDesign especially for those who prefer not to purchase through Amazon.

I see ‘Silence Revolution’ as a silent retreat in book form. Its like a distilled version of my retreat, like a shot of Poitín a high-proof 100% spirit🤣.

Follow my inner realisations, page by page, through technicolour images of Ireland, designed to nourish your soul and spark a sense of wonder and possibility, as you walk your own path toward the new you, and the beautiful new world we can create together.

Silence Revolution my last book arrived early to surprise me!

My lovely ladies just gentle reminder...

Woohoo 🎉 Silence Revolution is officially gone for publication!

I don’t see this as a personal achievement. To me, it’s a collective expression, a reflection of how we are as an evolving community, each of us striving to develop beyond who we think we are.

In the face of climate change, wars, and political unrest, we are living through a pivotal moment in human history. This is a time to deconstruct our individual and collective identities and to reimagine a consciousness capable of sustaining itself into the future.

Silence Revolution is both an invitation to stillness and a spark for transformation, a calm sea and a fire starter within your soul. ✨

I’m deeply grateful 🙏🏻 to Ravenport Curracloe for holding me in the perfect creative space overlooking Curracloe beach, offering calm and sanctuary as this work to be born.

Even with Wexford’s floods, it seems the pattern continues… I create storm ⛈️ before calm. So sorry!!

I even tried my first ice bath 🧊 a wild reminder of courage it takes to go beyond your control zone!

A special thanks to my brother Barry and Renata for this super generous Christmas voucher. 🎁

It’s officially
📖 Launch date international on Amazon: March 3
💻 eBook preorder: available in the next few days (I’ll keep you posted here!)

Deep breath. Deep gratitude. Massive Love.

Up and Onward making waves.
🌊🔥 ❤️

It’s time for…

A Silence Revolution

Not a rising up, but a turning inward.

Like a baby my third book is due to born on March 3, 2026.

It’s simply an invitation to...

Step into stillness and let life speak.

In a world growing louder by the day, this book invites you to pause, breathe, and reconnect with the true intelligence that flows within. Through silence, reflection, and mystical insight, it offers clarity, guidance, and a path to inner peace, personal transformation, and spiritual awakening.

Sit.

Breathe.

Listen…

Rediscover simplicity, presence, and the gentle wisdom of life itself. Whether you are seeking mystical insight, spiritual growth, or a deeper connection with yourself, this book is a companion for moving through life with clarity, grace, and awareness.

This book has been waiting patiently for its moment for the world to grow loud enough to make silence precious. Now its time has come.

Dedicated to my Grandfather Richard Whelan and Uncle Captain Sean Whelan RIP.

Thank you for showing me the way.

Embrace the wisdom of silence, and join me as this long-awaited book finally enters the world.

With love
Caroline

Reading ‘Intimacy Lives Between’ at the 55 Faces Melbourne launch with @michelle_gardiner_au This time last year. X

Last night’s FlourishByDesign Mid-Month Mixer was a beautiful reminder of the power of laughter.

Deep gratitude to the incredible women who showed up with openness, curiosity, and generosity of spirit. Gathering over my non-alcoholic virtual cocktail game, we stirred up a little magic playful moments, rich conversation, and gentle heart-openings along the way.

What stood out most was the quality of connection. Bonds were formed, conversations deepened, and a sense of collective possibility emerged. These moments matter. They are where confidence grows, collaboration begins, and purpose takes shape.

I truly cherish the community that is emerging through FlourishByDesign Women - choosing to connect consciously and design their lives with intention from the inside out!

✨ If you’re a woman who values meaningful connection, creativity, and growth, I invite you to join us at our next FlourishByDesign Global Gathering. Reach out, follow along, or message me to stay connected. ✨

Sending you all so much love, always

What aspect of you are you hiding to make other people feel comfortable?

It’s interesting how the concept of owning your brilliance can be seen an a negative within women’s minds.

This has been a topic we discussed at depth in one of my recent workshops with the Distilled.ie women’s group.

How women feel anxious and uncomfortable about sharing their strengths and prepare to downplay themselves. It a cultural norm that we challenge.

By definition brilliance means: intense brightness of light.
It about bringing the bright spark you hide within yourself out to the World to make it a brightest place.

Surely this is a good thing?

Don’t get me wrong I’m not talking about arrogance and falsehoods but it’s about simply owning you and seeing the value you bring to the World.

It’s about recognising your unique contribution you make to the people around you by just being you.

Shining brightly from the inside out is a reflection of your self value and self worth. It signals to others self leadership and an inner confidence.

It is your most precious asset it model self acceptance and in turn puts others around you at ease.

Owning you naturally opens you up to new possibilities and creates an inner Yes to life itself.

It’s unlocks your potential to go beyond who you think you are which makes life exciting and fulfilling.

It shifts your self perception as you see the world with wonder.

So let’s get comfortable where we are uncomfortable in 2026.

In a time when our World is in darkness Own your Brilliance and shine bright like the diamond to create hope in 2026.

It’s what you do best!

Christmas magic!! A special gift from a Turkish Mum to say thank you for looking after her son. I sooo love it!!

💥 HECA Research Conference 2025

Theme: Thriving in the Digital Age: AI, Education & Wellbeing for a Resilient Ireland

Yesterday, I had the joy of presenting alongside two incredible human-centered academics Dr. Andrew Wall and Arturo Vázquez whose talks intertwined so seamlessly it felt as though we 3 had been designed to flow together.

The discussion that followed, led by educational leaders deeply passionate about the future of higher education, was one of those moments where you could feel change in the air.

Here’s to a future of education with empathy at its heart in the face of AI where research, connection, and humanity come together to create not ripples, but waves of change. 🌊

A heartfelt thank you to Griffith College Dublin Robert McKenna, Patricia O’Sullivan, and Mary Doyle for their generous support and encouragement throughout this journey.

It was extra special to have the President of Griffith College Professor Diarmuid Hegarty be there to hear my talk. A Father figure who was watching on who established Griffith the year I was born, he so reminded me of my Dad cheerleading from the sidelines as I scored a goal, a simple witnessing presence means everything to me.

It feels so good to be sharing the findings in public after the solitude it took to produce the 15,000 word paper like a monk in a round tower.🤣

#EmpathyInEducation #HigherEducation #Research #HumanCenteredDesign #GriffithCollege #AcademicLife #EducationWithHeart #FlourishByDesign

Congratulations to my amazing design students graduating from Griffith College.

A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful team at Distilled.ie for their kind words and beautiful feedback.

“It was a great session and refreshing to hear the ladies celebrate their strengths rather than apologise for weaknesses.” – Emma, Distilled.ie

It always fills me with joy to see women shift from self-doubt to self-celebration to recognise that our strengths are something to be owned, not apologised for.

Thank you, Distilled.ie, for welcoming the Own Your Brilliance Program with such openness and heart.

Super Cool Ladies!
While exploring potential venues for my Women’s Leadership Workshops, I came across the one-of-a-kind Innovation Room the very place where the Irish Women’s Rugby Team hold their team-building sessions. 🏉 The creative energy and sense of purpose in the space really resonated with me. It’s certainly sparked my interest! ✨

✨ Super fun morning leading the incredible women’s group at Distilled.ie

This month’s session was called “Own Your Power – Embodying Your True Confidence,” a workshop designed to help women anchor into their worth and express themselves confidently and authentically in both their professional and personal lives.

Through discussion, reflection, and practical exercises, we explored what it really means to show up in your true confidence — not a false sense of bravado, but a grounded confidence rooted in self-knowledge, self-worth, and self-belief.

It’s always inspiring to see women reconnect with their inner confidence — not as something to “put on,” but as something already within them, waiting to be activated. 💎

Huge thanks to the Distilled Women group for your openness, laughter, and energy. On such a dull day outside, you all shone bright like diamonds! 💫
I was especially delighted to welcome so many new faces from Northern Ireland this month.

It’s a joy to be partnering with Aoife McCormack, Distilled’s HR Manager, to lead these amazing women across the bridge to success!

💬 If you’d like to run a similar workshop or program in your workplace or community group to boost engagement, confidence, and innovation, I’d love to connect.

🔑 The Key to Success

I see education and development as a magical key one that unlocks doors to new opportunities and ways of thinking.

Doors that were once closed begin to open, and spaces that felt uncertain become illuminated with clarity and purpose.

As you grow, the identity you once held starts to evolve. You move beyond who you thought you were in your career toward who you’re truly becoming.

In that light, your vision for your work and its impact on others gains new depth and meaning. The dream that once felt distant starts to feel possible. 🌱

Reflection for you:
What’s been your most recent personal or professional identity shift that moment when you realised you’d stepped into a new version of yourself?

✨ Is the ego a dirty word?
When we hear ego, most people think of arrogance, control, or a loud personality.
But here’s the truth: the shy person is also an ego.
Ego is simply our default identity the mask we wear to feel safe in the world. Sometimes it takes up all the space. Other times, it hides in the background, fearful of being seen.
In leadership, ego shows up in many forms:
The need to control
The need to be liked
The need to avoid conflict
The need to prove our worth
None of these make ego “bad.” It’s not a dirty word it’s part of being human.
But if we want to lead in today’s challenging times, we need to move from control to communication, from rigidity to adaptability.
👉 Together, let’s go from ego-driven to ego-aware.
Why? Because in today’s unpredictable world, leadership isn’t just about making decisions—it’s about making a difference.
When leaders operate from ego-driven habits, they often create:
❌ Miscommunication
❌ Low trust
❌ Stalled innovation
But when leaders step into ego-aware leadership, the outcomes shift:
✅ Stronger relationships built on trust
✅ Agility and adaptability in the face of change
✅ A culture where people feel safe to innovate and contribute
And that’s where the real advantage lies in business today.
Ego-aware leadership doesn’t just feel better—it performs better. 🚀
🎙️ That’s the mission behind the SUITS YOU podcast I co-create with Kim Dunlop: helping you become more aware of your leadership style so you can lead with agility, flexibility, and authenticity.
By listening to our podcast, you can start spotting your own style.
Then, take our online survey to reveal what style you are—and choose the course that SUITS YOU best!

Feeling so proud of this Rebel Ma @sessionswithsaoirse Saoirse Connolly.

With the launch of her 3rd book in the series helping women to share their voices. What an incredible evening with a man sharing lived experiences of what families are going through in Gaza. It really breaks your heart wide open to hear the stories of the families in starvation.

Please support this book if possible all the proceeds are going to a children’s charity in Gaza.

Young ladies take it from me. Your worth isn’t about showing as much skin as possible to impress. It’s about dressing for success in your career and moving with grace in your every action. Let your inner beauty shine through your outer beauty. It’s timeless. #flourishbydesign #fem-leaders

⚡ Wisdom Wednesday ⚡
Do you have a voice that pops up the moment you’re about to step into something exciting… and terrifying?

Mine has a name: La Résistance.

She’s clever.
She’s persuasive.
And she shows up without fail whenever I’m facing a challenge, a new opportunity, or one of those “bright ideas” that could change everything.

La Résistance tells me:
❌ “Play it safe.”
❌ “Wait until you’re more ready.”
❌ “Don’t risk looking foolish.”

Sound familiar?

Here’s the thing:
La Résistance isn’t actually here to ruin us, she’s our brain’s way of trying to keep us in familiar territory. Safe… but small.

If you’ve ever wrestled with Imposter Syndrome, you know this feeling well.

That inner saboteur wants you to believe you’re competing with the world, but in truth…

⚡ You’re only ever competing against yourself.

Every time you take a power step forward despite that voice, you grow.
Every time you speak up, submit the idea, or take the leap of faith you stretch beyond the limits you’ve set for yourself.

So here’s my Wisdom Wednesday challenge:

Today, do one small thing La Résistance doesn’t want you to do.

Make a Power Move:
⚡Send the proposal.
⚡Apply for the role.
⚡Speak your truth in the meeting.

You don’t have to silence that voice you just flip the script.

Your brilliance is worth the risk!

It’s your time to Sparkle💎

🌟 How do you show up when the heat is on?
That’s when your real leadership style surfaces.🔥
In our latest Suits You podcast episode, we explore how leaders react in moments of tension—conflict, pressure, or tough negotiations.
Are you:
👊 Kim the Dominant – taking charge, maybe a little too hard?
🙈 Caroline the Avoider – keeping the peace, but losing your voice?
💛 Or evolving into a more compassionate, conscious leader?
🎧 We break down:
✔️ How to identify your default leadership style
✔️ The pros and cons of each type
✔️ The mindset shift to go from reactive to intentional
Because when you become aware of your patterns, you stop playing the blame game—and start playing the A game. 🎯
✨ That’s what it means to lead by design—to influence, inspire, and elevate others.
So…
👉 Are you a Caroline or a Kim?

🎙️ NEW PODCAST DROP - SUITS YOU: Bridging the Gap to Success

🇺🇸 On this 4th of July a day when America celebrates its Declaration of Independence and the ideals of freedom, democracy, and justice we’re asking a different kind of independence question:

How free are you… in how you communicate at work?
Are you the one firing off aggressive, reactionary emails?
Are you playing it safe with overly polite, AI-generated corporate speak?
Or… is there a more authentic way to build the bridge to success?

✨ In this edgy and insightful episode, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Kim Dunlop think “Clash of the Titans” meets “Creative Heart meets Corporate Head.” Together, we explore how to hold space for two very different perspectives mine, calling for more emotional safety to protect creative innovation, and Kim’s, championing strong corporate communication standards.

Through honest, challenging conversation, wea reach a powerful place of mutual respect. It’s in this space where both heart and head are heard that we find the real path forward: Success doesn’t come from dominance or avoidance it comes from shared understanding.

Let this be your Declaration of Interdependence where authenticity, empathy, and good communication are your keys to success.

Food for thought...
