    How I decluttered my life - and made space for calm, focus and productivity

    I don't know about you...but I often feel like I'm constantly behind and racing just to stay still. That changed over the course of this summer, when I did a 7-week social media detox (I intended to do 6 weeks but was enjoying it so much that I've stayed away from being 'out there' for an extra week). In this episode, I share how I've gained a huge boost of clarity, headspace and perspective. You'll hear how I've cut out lots of things from my life that were draining me and overwhelming me. I also share how I cleared out a load of old stuff from my house...and the precious thing that I discovered hidden under all the clutter. I'm grateful to have moved into September feeling lighter, more present and far more in control of my time, my focus and my energy. I hope that listening to this episode inspires you to do some decluttering of your own. I'd love to hear from you if so.

    Why parents need to put their own wellbeing first (re-release)

    With the frenetic, back-to-school period about to kick in, I thought I'd re-share with you some guidance on how to stay grounded in the face of so much stress. This chat with Terri Creeden will make you think differently about what it means to lead your family. She shares how essential it is that we engage in self-care so that we have the capacity to help our family members to fulfill their own potential in life. Terri is a certified executive coach, trainer and facilitator. She believes in embracing slowness in our lives and leading with courage. She co-founded Grounded Parents Group with Sanela Lukanovic as an act of rebellion, after seeing how difficult it is for parents to find a space for their own self-development. Since the original podcast was recorded, Grounded Parents Group has opened up and expanded its personal development to parents and non-parents alike at www.selfdom.life.

    The invisible barriers that are sabotaging you (re-release)

    I'm delighted to re-share this eye-opening conversation on a topic which affects ALL of us. As you'll hear Gwyneth Moss explain, we have all picked up limiting beliefs when we were young children. These limiting beliefs (also known as "false truths") are often what are sabotaging us as adults. In this episode, you'll learn how false truths dictate our thoughts, behaviours and life choices...without us even being aware of them. I've been fortunate to have trained in EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping with Gwyneth. I think you will love her straight-talking wisdom. Gwyneth teaches people how to use tapping to help themselves, to help others, to help children and even to help animals. Find out more about her work at https://efthelps.com.

    How gratitude will make you stronger, happier & healthier (re-release)

    This is a re-release of episode 56 of my podcast. - and one of my favourite conversations. If I could persuade everyone to adopt just one habit, it would be a daily gratitude practice. It's no exaggeration to say that this is a practice that transforms people's lives on every level. This is a deeply uplifting conversation with the inspirational Holly Bertone. Holly discovered the power of gratitude after she was hit by a double whammy of chronic diseases which took her from over-achieving high-performer to bed-ridden and unable to function. Whatever challenges you are currently facing in life, this conversation will empower you to start reaping the remarkable benefits of gratitude. The research is unequivocal: gratitude transforms our emotional health, helps us to recover from past traumas, builds our resilience and improves our physical health too. Holly's approach is gentle and kind: she shows you how to start to build gratitude into your life, no matter how difficult that might seem. Holly is a best-selling author, sought-after speaker and gratitude coach. As a breast cancer and autoimmune survivor, she helps women to unwrap their resilience. She is President and CEO of Pink Fortitude and founder of Fortitude.Academy. She is a Project Management Professional and holds a Masters Degree from Johns Hopkins University. She is also a Certified Natural Health Professional.

    A midlife pivot to fulfilment & happiness

    You might be feeling stuck, frustrated and taken for granted - you might be feeling that life is passing you by, and that it's too late for you to create the life you want. I hope that this episode gives you hope that midlife is a golden period of opportunity to shake up your life and redesign it in a way that fulfils you. This is a very deep, soulful conversation with a wise, inspiring midlifer, Michelle Salon. Michelle is a mum of four who went from feeling depleted, overwhelmed and insecure to landing her dream job and letting go of the people-pleasing that was draining her. We discuss how the perimenopause can make us feel insecure in our career; the challenges of claiming time for ourselves; how the need for validation can hamper us; establishing boundaries around the time we give to others; finding joy in creative activities; and manifesting what we want out of life. It's been a joy to walk this journey with Michelle and watch her begin to blossom and thrive. It's so empowering to hear a real-life story of positive change in midlife: I hope that listening to Michelle will inspire you too to follow your dreams.

    The day I nearly killed people

    In this episode, I share a story from my past which nearly resulted in tragedy - for me and for many others. I'm very aware how fortunate I am to be here, alive and well, to share this with you today. You'll hear why our brains are so deeply vulnerable - and how easily they can malfunction from what we put in our body. I hope that sharing my story prompts you to reflect on your own story. What has happened to you in your past which might be affecting your present? As always, do drop me a note if this resonates with you.

    The menopause - and a new beginning

    Here are my honest reflections on the perimenopause and menopause - and what I wish that all women knew. I share the ways that I'm preparing for this transition - and the many ways that I used to sabotage my body's ability to balance itself. I'm glad I know better now. I hope this episode inspires you to care for yourself, whatever your age or stage of life.

    Why I'm choosing light over darkness

    It's been a long time since I've showed up here....much longer than I'd planned. I've lived through the darkest days - and also the lightest. I'm now a grandmother, which has given me a whole new perspective on life. I hope my thoughts on this prompt you too to relook at your North Star. Do get in touch with me and let me know.
