    The Three E's: Bringing the JOY to how I look after my body, my mind and my future self

    This week I am letting you in on a very real, very honest moment. I went to the doctors for an HRT check this week and the scales told me I had put on three kilos. Once upon a time, that would have sent me into a flat spin. This time? I sat with it, got curious, and decided it was exactly what I wanted to talk about on the podcast. My health,  your health does not have to be complicated. And the women I work with, the ones running businesses and homes and families and ageing parents, do not need another twelve step protocol. They need it simple. They need it doable. They need it to fit into a life that is already full. So I am walking you through my Three E's. The framework I come back to again and again, for health now and longevity long term. Eat for fuel. What you are actually doing in your day decides what you need on your plate. Whole foods, good protein, plenty of water. Not fancy. Not complicated. Just real. Exercise. Walk daily. Move daily. Add weight bearing work for your bones, your strength, your future self. It does not have to be hours in a gym or running a marathon (unless that brings you joy!) Easy does it. The hardest one for me. Stillness, sleep, joy moments, the breath work, the meditation, the protected pockets of quiet to ensure your cortisol drops, your digestion turns back on, and your brain does its night time clearing out, which I learned through my research into Alzheimer's is so much more important than most of us realise. This episode is part personal share, part practical framework, part gentle nudge to put yourself back near the top of your own list.

    Joy: Cracking your Confidence Code

    Want to follow along with your own chart? This episode is about cracking your confidence code with joy — and along the way I talk about your fears, how you're wired, and how you lead yourself. If you'd like to know your own Human Design before you press play, get your free chart here → [FREE HUMAN DESIGN CHART LINK] You'll need your date, time, and place of birth. No chart to hand? No problem — listen anyway. Everything in this episode applies to you, whether you know your design or not. About this episode This week's episode is my keynote speach recorded as a dress rehearsal before I delivered it live at Grantley Hall, for the brilliant charity SmartWorks, who help women back into the workplace after a loss of confidence. Ten years ago, I had no confidence at all. I'd separated from James, lost my mum, left my corporate career, and I had two small boys and no idea who I was without all the things that used to define me. No title. No team. No map. No salary. No mum to call. I had to build my confidence back from nothing. This episode is the recipe I found. The five ingredients — and the one thing that binds them all together. In this episode I walk you through my five ingredients of confidence: inner strength, self-leadership, courage, truth, and power and the one binding ingredient: JOY. Just On You. My favourite line of the whole episode: joy isn't the reward for getting confident. Joy is the practice that makes confidence inevitable. Mentioned in this episode This week on Substack — Be the Peach, Not the Egg. The values work behind ingredient one and ingredient four. Why your core values are your morning activators, your anchors in a storm, and your antidote to poison arrows. → [SUBSTACK LINK]  SmartWorks — the charity behind the Grantley Hall event, helping women across the country back into the workplace and into their confidence.

    The JOY of turning your 'Imposter' in to a Friend.

    This week's episode talks about your Fear Gates in Human Design, the specific places fear shows up in your body, your mind, and your decisions, based on your unique design. If you'd like to know yours before you press play, get your free Human Design chart here → FREE HUMAN DESIGN CHART LINK You'll need your date, time, and place of birth. If you don't have it to hand, no problem at all, listen anyway. Everything in this episode applies to you, whether you know your design or not. About this episode I have a real bee in my bonnet about the phrase "imposter syndrome." I want it banished. In 1978, two psychologists coined a term that gave generations of brilliant, boundary-pushing, ambitious women the worst possible name for the voice inside them. They called her an imposter. They told us to distrust her. Silence her. Override her. She isn't an imposter. She is fear. And fear, when you understand her, is one of the most important voices in the room. In this episode I walk you through: – Why "imposter syndrome" is the most dangerous label we've handed to high-achieving women – The only two fears you were actually born with (and what that means for every other fear running your life) – Your Fear Gates in Human Design — what they are, where they live, and why knowing yours changes everything – How to invite your fear friends in for coffee instead of trying to kick them out – Why fear is evidence that what you're doing actually matters If you've ever called yourself an imposter, or had that voice tell you you're not enough, not ready, not allowed, please listen to this one. And then share it with a woman who needs to hear it. Mentioned in this episode 📖 This week on Substack — Dear Boo, you were right. Vulnerability is the bloody stone. A letter to my 40-year-old self about the wheel I drew on a scrap of paper in 2016 and how it became the whole thesis of my life's work. → SUBSTACK LINK 🌹 Mindfulness Mondays — my new paid Substack series. 100 mindfulness practices to bring you peace, calm in the chaos, and a quiet mind in a busy life.

    Know your JOY Values: Your 'secret' antidote & daily mandatory supplement

    After listening to this episode and you know you want to do this work properly? The I Know Me, I Love Me Life Lab is the workshop that walks you through finding your core values, so you can love yourself, and the woman you are, by actually living them. It's free in Monday 11th May 2026 edition of The Joy Brief, or it lives permanently inside The Joy Rebellion membership. Links at the bottom. ↓ About this episode This might be one of the most important conversations Ali has ever brought to The Joy Broadcast. It's the work she returns to with every Brilliance client. It's the work she returns to with herself, every morning, before her feet hit the floor. Your values. Not the easy answer of "integrity and honesty". The real ones. The ones you can rattle off when someone asks who you are. The ones that become your path, your conviction, your courage, your antidote. Because as Ali says: when you know who you are, you can stand tall when the poison arrows come. You don't need to zip yourself up in an energetic sleeping bag. You don't need to be the eggshell, terrified of cracking. You get to be the peach, soft on the outside, with a kernel so strong the world can't break it. What's inside this episode A genuine, behind-the-scenes share, Ali reading from her own journal, walking you through: Why values matter more than your job title, your achievements, or your CVThe peach vs. the egg: how values become inner strength rather than outer armourWhy values are the better, freer alternative to boundariesHow values become the antidote when someone tries to define you, attack you, or shrink youThe exercise: blank sheet, brain dump, cluster, distil. Finding the one word that carries it allAli's own six core values and what each one really means to her: Genuine, Generosity, Gratitude, Grit, Growth, GraceWhy she added Grace as a sixth value at the end of 2024: softening, surrender, dignified strengthHow to use your values as a lens on your big goals. The journal exercise Ali did when she declared she wanted to make a lot of money, have a lot of fun, and help a lot of people, and had to clean up every place that desire collided with who she is A line worth holding onto "My values are the path I walk every day. I don't need boundaries, because I know who I am, and I know the path I'm walking." Your invitation If something in this stirred you, triggered you, activated you, that's the friction worth listening to. Go and do the work. Get the blank sheet. Write everything down. Cluster. Distil. Define. And then live them.

    Joy in the Sh*t, Diamonds, & Russian dolls

    Welcome back after the Easter break. This week I'm sharing two tools I've been using personally and walking my Brilliance clients through over recent weeks — because when I find myself saying the same thing on repeat in private sessions, I know it's time to broadcast it. The first is what I've started calling the shit and the diamonds — the recognition that life rarely hands you triumph in every area at once. Your career might be hitting milestones while your home life is heavy. Your relationship might be thriving while work is falling apart. The trick isn't to pretend the hard stuff isn't there. It's to stop letting it smother the good stuff. The woman in you holds the emotional work. The CEO in you leads the diamonds. Two hands. Don't clap them together. The second tool is one I've been teaching for years and had a fresh personal breakthrough with this week — the Russian Doll effect. I don't believe in finding yourself or becoming her. I believe every version of you you've ever been is still valid, still wise, still part of who you are now. But sometimes, after a betrayal or a trauma, we leave a doll behind. We abandon a version of ourselves we decided wasn't safe to be anymore. This week I went back for two of mine, the trusting woman I left in 2016, and the financially independent corporate professional I left in 2014, and the relief of putting them back inside me is what this episode is really about. This is deeper work than usual. Take it as an invitation. Favourite Quote: "It's like you've got a pile of shit in one hand and a bag of diamonds in the other. Don't clap your hands together.""I don't believe in finding yourself. I believe in remembering yourself.""Every version of you is valid." Work with me The Joy Rebellion: my membership where we lock in your joy every single week. Coaching, mentoring, celebration, community. Doors are always open.

  6. Dressing for Joy (and Why Well-Dressed Is a State of Mind) with Dahlia Stroud

    Dressing for Joy (and Why Well-Dressed Is a State of Mind) with Dahlia Stroud

    What do you wear on the day you've been made redundant? The day your confidence is on the floor? The day you're trying to remember who the hell you are without the job title? This week on The Joy Broadcast, I'm joined by the wonderful Dahlia Stroud, someone I haven't seen for the best part of 15 years, since our Asda House days in Leeds. Dahlia went from Head of Commercial with a full diary and a ringing phone to "here one day, gone the next" overnight. And out of that lost-purpose, all-dressed-up-with-nowhere-to-go season, she built Stressed But Well Dressed, a podcast (and a philosophy) about the link between clothes, confidence, and mindset. This one is for every woman who has ever asked herself, who am I now?  and every woman who already knows that what she puts on in the morning is never really just about the outfit. Favourite moments "I was all dressed up with nowhere to go." — Dahlia, on the season that birthed the podcast"Joy isn't fluff, it's f*****g physics.""The opposite of happiness isn't sadness — it's hopelessness.""Dress for the best-case opportunity that could absolutely happen." — Dahlia"Well-dressed is a state of mind, not a fashion statement." — Dahlia Find Dahlia Podcast: Stressed But Well Dressed , out every Friday, wherever you get your podcastsInstagram: @stressedbutwelldressed_podcastLinkedIn: Dahlia StroudContinue your journey with JOY If this one stirred something, the question of who am I now, or the quiet wondering about whether you're dressing for the day you're actually hoping for — come and stay close.

  7. The Joy of Colour: How Your Home Can Change Your Life with Becky Harrison

    The Joy of Colour: How Your Home Can Change Your Life with Becky Harrison

    There's a reason you walk into some rooms and immediately feel at ease and others that leave you flat without knowing why. This week's guest has built her whole practice around that mystery, and the answer almost always comes back to one thing: colour. Becky Harrison is an interior designer, psychology graduate, and Joy Rebellion member who brings a beautifully grounded, science-meets-soul approach to how we live in our homes. After 16 years in corporate project management — where her love for buildings quietly grew — she made the leap into design. Now she helps families create homes that don't just look good, but feel good. And she's doing it right now from inside her own renovation project, which makes this conversation all the more real. We talk colour, obviously. But we also go much deeper: into fear, judgment, Feng Shui, the psychology of clutter, and why the first question Becky asks a client has nothing to do with their favourite shade. Becky's quick-win tips you can use right now: Create a joy corner — a dedicated spot in your home with the things that bring you joy close at hand: candles, crystals, books, whatever's yours. Having it set up means you can access joy quickly without hunting for it. Build happy views — little vignettes at your desk or at the table. A piece of artwork, some flowers, something that catches your eye and delivers a small shot of dopamine while you work. Bring in pops of colour through nature — daffodils on the windowsill, a yellow vase, an orange throw. Small changes to the colour in a room lift the energy, which lifts your mood. Connect with Becky: Instagram: @beckyharrisondesigns  Website: beckyharrisondesigns.co.uk Becky works primarily across the south west of England but will travel for the right project. If you want to embrace colour in your home, she's your person. Loved this episode? Come and join us inside The Joy Rebellion — the community Becky calls her reset. £22 a month.  And if this conversation sparked something, share it with a friend who's been staring at Farrow & Ball paint cards for six months and still hasn't committed.

  8. The Joy of Reclaiming your Space with Steph McConachy

    The Joy of Reclaiming your Space with Steph McConachy

    As part of our Easter inspiration series, celebrating women who inspire me and whose stories I know will inspire you, I'm joined by the wonderful Steph McConachy, founder of Nine Lemons Feng Shui. We met through the magic of Instagram and our mutual friend Kimberly Gallagher, and I have loved watching Steph's extraordinary journey unfold. In just three months, she grew her audience from 3,000 to 30,000 followers and she credits Feng Shui. This conversation is joyful, practical, and deeply moving. We talk about the power of your home to support your life, your business, and your healing, and how making small, intentional changes to your space can create profound shifts in everything from your visibility to your nervous system. What We Cover 🍋 Why nine lemons? The story behind the name, from the power of the number nine in Feng Shui (we're in Cycle Nine!) and a secret nod to Real Housewives, to the Susan Jeffers "nine grid" and why a full life is the ultimate insurance policy. 🗺️ The Bagua Map explained. The nine areas of your life mapped to your home: knowledge, career, helpful people, family, health, children and creativity, wealth, fame and reputation, and love. Steph walks us through how she reads a floor plan and what she can tell about someone's life just from where the bathrooms are. 📈 How Steph went from 3,000 to 30,000 followers in three months by intentionally activating the fame, visibility and recognition area of her home, cleaning the windows, replacing dull bulbs, placing a plant, and setting clear, specific intentions. 🌿 The power of intention setting. Why Feng Shui is not just putting lemons on a bench. How to speak to your home, talk to your plants, and use the nine areas as a 3D vision board for the life you want to create. 🏠 Your home holds energy. Steph shares her deeply personal story of losing her son, buying a house in grief, and eventually using Feng Shui to reclaim her space and move forward. This led to her brand new programme Reclaim Your Space, for anyone navigating a major life transition. 💼 The command position. Why where you sit at your desk matters more than you think, how cortisol levels drop when your back is against a wall, and why so many brilliant women are running seven-figure businesses from a corner of the spare room, shoved aside for a bed that gets used seven nights a year. 🌍 Finding peace when the world feels uncertain. Why your home is your greatest source of empowerment right now, and the small acts of care that bring you back to safety. Steph's Offers  Let It Go — a 7-day container to release "past self anchors" (not just decluttering, but energetically letting go) Reclaim Your Space — a brand new 4-week programme to shake the energy of your home through transition, grief, change, or a fresh start The Energetic Advantage — a 6-month deep dive (next round opening May)👁️ One-to-one work — private Feng Shui consultations, email me stephanie@ninelemonsfengshui.comFind Steph 📱 Instagram: @ninelemonsfengshui  www.ninelemonsfengshui.com Loved This Episode? If this conversation sparked something in you, share it with a woman who needs to hear it. Joy shared is joy multiplied and that's what The Joy Rebellion is all about. https://www.alimortimer.com/
