    Episode 54: Finding Light After Loss with Esther Marshall

    *Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of suicide and grief* In this deeply moving episode of Do Your Thing, I’m joined by Esther Marshall, founder of Sophie Says - a children’s wellbeing brand helping children build confidence, resilience, and emotional understanding from an early age. Inspired by the tragic loss of her sister Rebecca, who died by suicide after working as a junior doctor during COVID, Esther left her corporate role to bring their shared dream to life. What began during night feeds on maternity leave - writing children’s books about emotions and mental health - has grown into a movement that has now reached over 200,000 children across the UK. In this episode, we explore what it means to find light after loss, and how grief has profoundly reshaped Esther's sense of purpose and relentless drive to 'Do Her Thing' - especially in motherhood. In this moving episode, we talked about: Finding purpose and meaning after lossCarrying grief alongside raising kidsWhy emotional literacy matters for children and adultsCreating emotional safety at homeLetting go of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the pressure to be likedTurning pain into impact and legacy Esther shares honestly about grief, resilience, and how Sophie Says has become both a source of healing and a way to equip the next generation with the tools so many of us never received. A tender, hopeful conversation about loss, love, and raising emotionally resilient children AND parents.

    Episode 52: Movement as Medecine in Motherhood (with Emma Deery)

    What if the key to healing, balance, and joy in motherhood wasn’t about doing more - but about coming back home to your body? In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Emma Deery - a Movement Medicine and Empowerment Coach for Mothers whose work helps women reconnect with their bodies, release what’s been held, and rediscover their true, authentic selves. Before stepping into this work, Emma spent over a decade as a professional actress, singer, and dancer. But it was her initiation into motherhood, marked by birth trauma and postnatal depression, that cracked her open and led her to explore movement as a form of deep healing and transformation. During our conversation, we explore: Why movement is medicine - and how it can help mothers process emotions, regulate the nervous system, and find freedom againHow motherhood is a sacred portal of transformation one that invites us to shed old stories and re-learn who we really areWhat it means to listen to your body and use it as a guide, not just a vesselHow movement and embodiment can help you release guilt, shame, and perfectionism - and come back to self-love Emma’s story and wisdom are a beautiful reminder that the body holds the map - and when we make space to listen, move, and feel, we can find our way home to ourselves again.

    Episode 51: Tarot & The Art of Self-Trust with Victoria Smith-Murphy

    During this episode I’m joined by the brilliant Victoria Smith-Murphy - an executive coach, tarot educator, and leadership mentor who weaves together the corporate and the sacred. At the heart of Victoria’s work lies helping people reconnect with their intuition - that deep inner knowing so many of us override, second-guess, or forget how to hear. During this conversation we explore what intuition really is, why it matters & how learning to trust it can expand your life in the most unexpected ways. Victoria shares her deeply personal journey - from navigating early menopause to becoming a mum through her sister’s egg donation - and how each step has taught her to surrender, trust, and listen inward. We also dive into the world of Tarot - exploring how it can be used as a tool for reflection, perspective-shifting, and guidance. Victoria even does a live Tarot reading with me, which offered some pretty powerful insights! This conversation is full of wisdom, grounded spirituality, and gentle reminders that you already have the answers you’re seeking inside you - if only you create the space to listen.

  5. Episode 50: The Courage to Create… & Keep Moving!

    Episode 50: The Courage to Create… & Keep Moving!

    Let's celebrate 50 episodes of the pod! 🎉 In this milestone solo episode, I reflect on what it really takes to create something that matters...and keep going, even when it feels messy, imperfect or unclear. When I pressed record on episode 1 of this podcast back in December 2023, I had no idea where this journey would take me. What I did know was that I wanted to create a space for honest, inspiring conversations with women who are living life on their terms - and in turn, empower YOU to believe that your dreams, ideas and voice matter deeply, even alongside raising kids. So now I'm using this solo milestone episode to reflect on what these 50 episodes have taught me, and how they have shaped me as a whole person including: >> The courage it takes to begin (and why fear isn’t a stop sign) >> Why alignment + integrity matter more than perfection >> How small, imperfect steps build momentum and confidence If you’ve been sitting on an idea, dream or spark, this is your reminder: you don’t need the full plan, you just need the courage to begin and grant yourself the permission to believe it’s possible for you. And if you’re ready to start doing your thing with clarity, courage and conviction, I’d love to support you inside The Gateway - my signature 1:1 coaching and mentorship programme for mums ready to step into their next chapter while raising their kids. Enrolment is now open - details below! Here’s to the first 50 - and the next 50 still to come!

    Episode 49: Breaking Free in Motherhood with Annie Breen

    What does it really mean to feel free in motherhood? In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by the brilliant Annie Breen - Speaker, Transformational Life Coach, Holistic Therapist, and co-founder of The Galloping Gut Hut. Annie is passionate about helping people break free from mediocrity and the “shoulds” of society so they can live a liberated life aligned with who they truly are. Motherhood was the catalyst for Annie’s own breaking free. After navigating overwhelm, an ADHD diagnosis, and the pressures of doing life in a way that didn’t fit her, Annie and her family chose a different path - one rooted in freedom, authenticity, and alignment with their values. In this episode, Annie shares her journey and wisdom around: The courage it takes to break the rules and choose your own values insteadBuilding a life web that’s interconnected, evolving, and rooted in what matters mostCreating anchor points in daily life to stay grounded amidst the juggleWhy authenticity and energy are at the heart of true liberationCycle breaking, legacy, and modelling new possibilities for our childrenHow freedom in motherhood doesn’t mean detaching from family - but finding safe harbours that allow you to thrive We also explore the messy, human parts of this process: learning to trust the unknown, finding the right people to support you, and redefining what it means to be a mother beyond society’s narrow mould. If you’ve ever felt like motherhood has shrunk your world, Annie’s story is a reminder that it can also be the gateway to expansion, freedom, and living life on your own terms.

    Episode 48: Crafting A 'Home Ed' Life with Fiona Sim

    What if raising your kids didn’t mean following the rules - but rewriting them altogether? In this episode of Do Your Thing, I’m joined by the brilliantly honest and refreshingly down-to-earth Fiona Sim: a home-educating mum, Certified Business Strategist and freedom-seeker who’s created a life and career shaped by values and instincts, not expectations. Fiona lives in the Scottish Borders with her husband and two daughters. After spending 15 years trying on different jobs and directions, it wasn’t until motherhood that she truly found her path - which included the decision to Home Educate her kids. Fiona shares her inspiring story of consciously stepping away from the conventional path, from years of trying to “figure it all out” to building a lifestyle that blends parenting, learning, travel and self-trust. During this conversation we explore: Why Fiona chose to home educate her children - and what that actually looks like in real lifeHow home education has become a natural, blended part of their everyday lifeThe role of freedom in her parenting journey - and how her perspective shifted after becoming a mumThe balance between supporting her children’s autonomy and making space for herselfThe reality of trial and error, learning to get it wrong, and offering yourself compassion in the process Fiona also shares some invaluable widsom around what to consider if you’re curious about home education, and how to start exploring what might work for your family.

    Episode 47: Ease Into Summer, Burnout-Free

    The end of term can feel like a full-body sprint to the finish line - school events, packed calendars, exhausted kids (and parents!) and your own mental load bubbling away in the background. It’s no wonder so many of us arrive at summer already feeling wrung out, craving rest but unsure how to actually get it with kids at home. But you don’t have to start the summer exhausted, burnt out, and desperate for a break you may not fully get. And in this short and supportive solo episode, I’m here to offer you a different way into the Summer stretch. An approach rooted in gentleness, nervous system care, and permission to tend to your own needs as well as your family’s. In this episode we'll explore: - Why the end-of-term intensity can feel like such a spiral - How to soften the transition into summer without collapsing into it - Tiny but powerful ways to honour your energy, needs and capacity - How to make this summer feel less like survival and more like spaciousness - Why looking beyond the summer might bring surprising relief If you’re feeling the frazzle, this episode is your exhale. And a reminder that it’s safe to unrush yourself and allow yourself to matter in the middle of it all. >> And if you know you’re ready for something to shift come September - whether it’s more support, space, or a reimagining of how you want to do life, work or motherhood - my signature 1:1 coaching and mentorship programme for Mum, The Gateway - is now open for enrolment. A grounding way to welcome in more ease, peace of mind and excitement into the summer knowing your September self will be taken care of on the other side.
