I know what it feels like to want TO STEP INTO
THE NEXT VERSION OF YOURSELF.
i spent my life 'wishing' 'hoping' 'dreaming'...
I didn't realise all the power
I needed was inside me the whole time...
but it was buried underneath a lot of "junk"
hi there
I’m Emma Krause... I'm a lot of different things to a lot of different people... "twin Mum..." "comedian"... "lady on those Lotto ads"...
but what i love most is helping women reclaim their voice and live boldly + unapologetically as themselves.

Rewrite Your Story
Design and Create Your Best year YET!
An evening of CREATION where you’ll design and build the BLUEPRINT for your best year yet!
I grew up being the "good girl." I remember NEVER stepping over the yellow "out of bounds" lines at school... I followed every rule, pleased others and always did the "right" thing.
so the weird, quirky, creative part of me never had a voice. i was told that part of me was "too much"... "not appropriate for a girl..."
So played the role the world wanted from me.
i spent a LOT of energy trying to be normal...
the world
had a LOT of rules for who I had to be...
and none of them felt anything like ...
me...
A "good woman"
was beautiful, polite,
self-sacrificing, and always
putting others needs
ahead of hers.
I wanted to be a "good person"... so I learned to act like one.
I organised birthday parties, kept a spotless house, obsessed
over my kids milestones, and hosted gatherings where everyone else had a great time.
I was burned out, exhausted, overwhelmed and feeling like
I was never good enough... there was always something else I hadn't done...
Other women could
"keep up"... but I couldn't...
I assumed there was something
fundamentally really WRONG with me.
I looked into the mirror one day...
and said...
"this life isn't making me happy"
Then I found a role model. A real movie star
I could actually relate to..
her name is rosita.
And she changed my life...
then my nan turned 100...
100!
On her birthday, we had this great chat about life
and how to REALLY live it...
My Nan was a woman who lived unapologetically on her own terms.
I thought about how that will be me someday.... chatting to my Grandkids, telling them how I'd lived my life. I wanted to tell them I had the courage to be myself and try the things I wanted to try.
I reflected on a dream
I'd ALWAYS had to try
stand-up comedy,
but I was held back by a fear of public speaking...
(uh... well, it was more like a debilitating terror that left me frozen.
I couldn’t even speak up in simple situations,
like returning the wrong coffee order
or sharing an idea at work.
So... the thought of standing on a stage
with all eyes on me felt IMPOSSIBLE,
but the urge to try it
didn't go away.
then i read
"The Women Who Run with the Wolves."
(Here's just one of the many quotes that inspired me...)
All the "not readies," all the "I need times,"
are understandable, but only for a short while.
The truth is that there is never a
"completely ready," there is NEVER a "right time."
... there comes a time when one simply
hopes for the best, pinches one's nose,
and jumps into the abyss.
If this were not so,
we would not have needed
to create the words heroine, HERO, or courage.
I wanted to say that I loved it and it went well... (but I'm an honest person..)
the truth is i struggled a LOT
With my nerves...
With my fears...
With taking up space...
With speaking out...
With thinking that I was worthy of people listening to me...
comedy was Terrifying and exhilarating,
it forced me to step into
Comedy didn’t just teach me how to be funny—it taught me to be unapologetically me.
can you see that doubt in my eyes on my 3rd gig...?
This journey
became about a LOT more than comedy for me...
it's been about finding my voice, challenging my beliefs and shedding the masks i wore.
I thought about giving up about 1000 times...(I'm so glad I didn't)...
Stand up
didn’t just teach me how to be funny.
It taught me how to be unapologetically me.
Without learning all the lessons that comedy taught me... I wouldn't be the person I am today. For that I'm so grateful...
I'm MOST grateful to all
the women I met in the audiences.
(especially in the early days!)
They'd say things that kept me going...
and made me not want to quit...
"I feel like you just told
my story up there..."
"thank you... i thought i was
alone in feeling this way..."
When I felt like I was
representing other women....
well...
that took ALL the fear away...
I still love comedy,
but I LOVE helping women step into their power more.
