Episode 51
In this episode, I wanted to share a little of my own personal journey and choice to give up alcohol. It's been two years of living alcohol-free now, and it feels a little vulnerable to share, but I hope by doing so, something might resonate, support you, or encourage you to think about your own relationship with alcohol. Or perhaps it's just a personal story you might enjoy listening to! But most importantly, I want to share the benefits I have found, and why I enjoy living my life now, alcohol-free. I hope you enjoy listening in, and I'd love to hear and know.

Episode 50
In this episode, I share a little of my own personal journey with mindfulness, and meditation, and the profound healing that has come into my own heart and life.  I share this, to connect and support, and to encourage you with your own ritual and practice, especially if you are someone just like me who once thought meditation would be impossible.  I used to be that person through anxiety, pain and so much change and uncertainty in my own life, and today, I am so grateful for the ease and calm I feel, through meditation as such a beautiful and healing modality. Surrender has and continues to be the most  profound healing journey of my life, and perhaps it is or may be, for you too.  I hope you enjoy listening in and perhaps you know someone who would benefit from hearing this, too.

Episode 48 
​I've been thinking about positivity and optimism and their differences.  I wonder if these terms and 'hashtags' we use - #minsdetiseverything and #positivemindset  - are truly, everything. Or are they terms we use, so often, in this coaching/self improvement and self development space, that can feel supportive to some degree - also, depending on our life circumstances. Or can they, at times, actually create the opposite of positivity, and instill feelings of lack or failure, if we can't truly live up to this. Is the answer - yes, mindset is everything, but perhaps not without our heart connection too. Or perhaps it's not a positive mindset, but an optimistic outlook, that's far more valuable, supportive and brings all the feelings I believe in so much - calm, ease, connection and confidence within - from this optimistic place.  I know there are so many various schools of thought on this, and I want to share, in this episode, just a little of what I mean and feel.  Why I personally choose and favour optimism over positivity.  And I encourage you to reflect on what feels most true and supportive for you.  You might agree, or disagree - and I invite you to share your thoughts, as I'd love to hear and know.     ​

What a delight to share this conversation today. Kim is a writer, singer & coach and she has a fierce passion and devotion to support and liberate artists, to speak up and be a warrior for the gifts they have to share, to know their worth, to help them remember who they are, and to feel alive.  Beautiful themes for so many of us, as creatives, and self expression being a huge part of wellbeing.  
In this conversation, we talk about so many nourishing and beautiful things - Kim's work as a voice coach; the impact of covid for artists and musicians; that we are all artists and creatives in our own lives and claiming this within ourselves; a sense of worthiness and feeling enough that many of us struggle with; music and artistry as a homecoming to self; devotion over discipline; how to handle criticism and see failure as empowering growth; and more!

It's a delight to share this conversation with Christina, about her two businesses, Hair Romance & Mr and Mrs Romance. Christina started blogging 11 years ago, from her own relationship and journey with her hair, and she's now a best selling author and blogger, and shares incredible hair styling resources, tutorials and so much support for other women. It's inspiring and insightful talking to her about the relationship we all have with our hair and how we see and feel about ourselves, our hair as a huge part of health and wellbeing, hair grief and ways women with hair loss can feel more empowered and confident,  and so much more.  If you're new to blogging and writing, or would love some inspiration, Christina also shares some really helpful tips to get started and for the words to flow. Mr and Mrs Romance is a travel and lifestyle blog and website,  Christina has with her husband, Jim. It's a very special story as to how this business came to life, and these two 'romances' that connect in so many ways.  Mr and Mrs Romance shares adventures and travel tips, with their love and passion for eating, drinking, traveling, photography and more.  It's lovely to find out more about how they created this business, and inspiring for all of us to find new adventures in our lives, and a love for travel and exploring places closer to home, in these times, too.  I loved sharing this conversation with Christina - she's so engaging, open, and a delight to talk to, with so much to share. Enjoy listening in, as much as I enjoyed sharing this conversation.
