    The Business of Beliefs

    The Business of Beliefs

    Monday Momentum: In this episode I explain the importance and power of changing your beliefs. This conversation came off the back of an event I was a guest speaker at yesterday called REST REVOLUTION by Dr. Fiona Barry & Clare McKenna.

    If you are not doing work that you love then its time to make space for more fulfillment to come in. A good place to start is in your beliefs.

    In this episode I mentioned that I am hosting a FREE Training called "Confidence Overhaul" on Thurs 2nd May at noon on zoom. Link to sign up HERE

    Are you chasing highs?

    Are you chasing highs?

    Mindset has become mainstream, that's for sure. For
    today's Monday Momentum I am talking about chasing highs, particularly among women, as they seek external validation and emotional validation.

    I discuss the psychological toll of award culture and the impact it has on peoples sense of self worth, and fear of failure and how it activates the comparison trap.

    I used to live from the outside in - always (unknowingly) needing  external validation and approval instead of from the inside out - deciding what In want and going for it without worrying what people think of me.

    I outline 3 steps in this episode that you can take to see if you are falling down the rabbit hole of chasing highs and the importance of emotional regulation - as well as the importance of letting your emotions fully peak!

    Its a really useful chat that I know will help you to immediately shift your mindset. So get it into your ears, while on your coffee break, out for a walk or on your drive home, Thank me later :)
