13. I went M.I.A - this is why
I took an intentional break on the podcast for the last month - and this is why - the thing called LIFE ;)
We had a lot of changes as a family and I am a big believer in NOT burning yourself out! Hence, the step back which you will hear about!
Thanks for your continued support and I am super excited for whats to come!

12. Remember this if you're struggling right now
This is for you if you feel like you are struggling in your life right now. It's easy to perceive your struggles as barriers or failure but I want you to remember this:
1. You are not alone
2. People genuinely care about you
3. You are enough
4. You are resilient
5. There's usually an underlying root cause - get to the bottom of it
Don't let your struggles stop you, see your struggles as a way to push you to where you want to be.

10. 7 lessons for those who've experienced any hardship or adversity
I've recently had a few people reach out asking for tips/advice on how to break through limiting beliefs, overcome negativity and toxic behaviours and what would be my top tips for others. So, I've chosen to share 7 lessons I've learned through going through deep hardship.
This isn't specifically for those who've gone though abuse - yes, it will resonate. However, it is really suited for anyone no matter where you're at in life.
Lessons:
1. Never be in a rush
2. The past is the past
3. Take responsibility for your own actions
4. Always see the positive in every situation
5. Never settle
6. Learnt to love yourself
7. Find purpose/meaning to you and your life
I'd love to know what your take away was and if there's anything you'd add to the list?
