    #37 When Things Go 'Wrong' In Life: Lessons From My Auntie Nellie

    #37 When Things Go 'Wrong' In Life: Lessons From My Auntie Nellie

    In this episode I want to share with you a story about my Auntie Nellie. Her life’s path may have been chosen for her but she lived it with positivity and sunshine.
    I want to tell you about how she went from being a Convent Nun to driving a pimped up Ford Escort!
    She certainly sowed the seeds of greatness for me, and even today her legacy lives on in the younger generations of our family.
    You’ll soon hear how having trust in the universe/faith/belief can mean that “life is happening for you, not against you” as the wonderful Oprah says. Enjoy!
    And I hope Auntie Nellie helps you to find a parking space or two :)

    #36 From Scared to Empowered With One Simple Tool

    #36 From Scared to Empowered With One Simple Tool

    In this episode, I talk about a time when I was scared. I'm not talking about being afraid of heights or being terrified by a horror movie. I’m referring to how a new and exciting business opportunity led to knots in my stomach. How my loud inner chatter was there knocking my confidence and making me feel apprehensive about stepping out of my comfort zone. I want to tell you how I turned this limiting feeling around and kept my courage through it. Maybe it will inspire you to do the same when faced with new opportunities in life.

Mary extracts life lessons from everyone she chats to

I love listening to Mary’s interviews. She has a knack for hearing what a guest is saying, getting to the intention behind it, and re-framing what they’ve said as a positive and useful nugget that the audience can take away. I guess that’s her NLP expertise at work! Well worth a listen.

You learn something from everyone

Mary brings out the best in people and then share them through these conversations. I have taken up so many advices from the podcast. These conversations help me make better choices in my life and introduce me to a deeper understanding to my own self discovery journey.
