    Episode 73: Go And Make Hummus : The Thought Trap

    Sometimes the more we try to work something out, the further away the answer seems to get. In this episode, I’m exploring that familiar pull to keep pushing when we’re getting nowhere, and what can become available when we stop forcing clarity and allow ourselves some fresh eyes. Featuring some complicated business work, some bookkeeping… and a bowl of homemade hummus (that the kids declined in the end) 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com 👉Mailing List https://www.beccagardner.com/ 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 supported space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

    A hard summer. A short temper. A few moments you wish you’d handled differently. But when did that become evidence that you’re a bad mum?

    Episode 71 : When Thinking Isn't Helping : The Thought Trap

    What if thinking something through isn’t always the best way to find an answer? Inspired by a simple story shared by Mavis Karn in her book It’s That Simple, this episode explores our tendency to think, rethink, analyse and figure things out — and the assumption that if we just think hard enough, clarity will eventually come. But some of our clearest answers seem to arrive when we stop looking for them. Maybe there’s another kind of intelligence available to us. One that doesn’t require quite so much thinking. 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com 👉Mailing List https://www.beccagardner.com/ 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 supported space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

    Episode 70 : The “What Will They Think?” Trap

    How much of your life is being shaped by what other people might think of you? We can hold back, change what we do or even make ourselves smaller because of it. But what if there’s something we’ve completely missed about the whole thing? In this episode, I’m looking at “What will they think?” in a way that might just change how seriously you take that question. 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com 👉Mailing List https://www.beccagardner.com/ 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 supported space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

    Episode 68 : Why Doing Nothing Feels So Wrong : Trap Talk

    Why does doing nothing feel so wrong? Ever sat down to rest, only for your mind to tell you that you should be doing something else? In this monthly segment, Trap Talk, we're exploring one of the mind's most powerful habits: comparison. It's an innocent mechanism. Our minds constantly compare, measure and evaluate. Once essential for survival, it now has us comparing ourselves to everyone else's lives, achievements and productivity. No wonder doing nothing can feel so wrong. But what if there's nothing wrong with you? What if it's simply the mind doing what minds do? Understanding that changes everything. 👉Join my mailing list 👉https://www.beccagardner.com/free-audio 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

    Episode 67 : Understanding Self Harm : A Conversation With Clare Assante

    Self-harm can be one of the most frightening and confusing experiences for a parent, family member, or anyone supporting someone they love. In this episode, I'm joined by teen coach Clare Assante, founder of Blindsided by Thoughts. Clare and I completed our Change Coach training together, and together we explore self-harm through a compassionate and understanding lens. Rather than focusing solely on the behaviour, we look at what's happening beneath the surface and why understanding can change the way we respond. Our hope is that this conversation helps you feel calmer, clearer, and more confident in supporting someone who is struggling. Please note: If you or someone you know is at immediate risk, or you're concerned about their safety, this episode should sit alongside appropriate professional support, not replace it. Please contact your GP, your local mental health crisis team, or your emergency services, depending on the urgency of the situation 👉 Course:-Understanding What's Behind Self Harm https://blindsided-by-thought.thinkific.com/courses/Understanding-self-harm 👉 Check Out Clare's Website https://blindsidedbythought.com/ 👉 Follow Clare on Instagram ://www.instagram.com/clare.assante?utm_source=qr 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com 👉 Mailing List https://www.beccagardner.com/ 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 supported space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.

    Episode 66 : The Thought Train : The Thought Trap

    One broken cat flap. One very suspicious cat. And somehow, my mind had me cancelling our summer holiday. In this episode, I share how one small moment sent my thinking miles ahead of what was actually happening—and straight into the Thought Trap. Because the thought train is how we get there. The trap is believing the destination is reality. 👉Ask me a Question becca@beccagardner.com 👉Mailing List https://www.beccagardner.com/ 👉 Find out about HOME, my 1:1 supported space https://www.beccagardner.com/new-page-2 👉Follow me on instagram https://www.instagram.com/beccagardnercoach/ "The Thought Trap — a space for quieting the busy brain, turning down the noisy chatter, and stepping more fully into life" Disclaimer: As a Certified Change Coach trained by Dr. Amy Johnson, PhD, and a member of the Association of Coaching, I approach wellbeing from a holistic perspective.
