Do you know what you actually enjoy doing?

After having just spent four months in lockdown today I chat about what reflections I have had during this time and what I don’t want to go back to doing since ‘Freedom Day.’

Todays episode is a reflection on how we make ourselves ‘busy’ without truly reflecting if we’re happy with what we are busy doing.

I touch deeply on work and work life balance as well as the power of ‘do it, dump it, delegate it’

Today I chat with the amazing Nikki Shah. 

Nikki is the founder of MyMuse. She has had quite the journey, which has led her to set up a social impact business that bridges the gap for employers and employees going through cancer, a life altering illness or a carer journey. 

Nikki has a team of psychologists, oncologists, palliative care, legal, HR and policy writers who develop co-designed programs, training and workshops for the likes of Lend Lease and EML to name a few. Providing them with proactive solutions for when this happens in their workforce and how to support the individual as well as the rest of the team or even company. 

MyMuse has been the finalist to the Blackmores Women + Wellness awards 2020, University of Sydney Genesis Program Finalist 2020 and 2021 and winner of The Hub Flexi Impact Program 2021.

With 1 in 2 Australians being diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85, everyone in a workforce will be a􀀁ected in one way or another. What are we currently doing to assist this?

Nikki is unstoppable, some people would see her life being full of tragedy, but she has turned every chapter of her life so far into something that has become a truly amazing story. She has an energy and presence that stops anyone in their tracks.

I feel so lucky to be able to bring her, and her amazing story and what she has done with her life to you my beautiful not broken listeners. She is a true example of what this community is about.

How sometimes the things that impact our lives the most also help us create the change we so need.

Let’s chat that annoying thing of trusting the timing of your life.

A year ago, it was a huge struggle for me to let go of the dream of how I thought my life would be.

So, over the past year I have really had to learn to let go of certain thoughts I had about life and embrace and make the most of the way my life was actually turning out.

Trigger warning. 

 Today I want to take you through my personal experience with anxiety and depression.

 I talk you through how I felt, and hopefully help you feel less alone in the way that you feel.

 I chat through how you might feel going through the grief cycle, especially considering so many of us might be facing this for the first time during lockdown

Today I talk all things how to set healthy boundaries with your devices.

I run you through my personal bedtime routine.

We deep dive into journaling, and how journaling has helped on my journey in the past 12 months.

How not to let social media rule your life, and questioning why you're mindlessly scrolling (or even doom scrolling)

Are you holding onto a narrative because it's just always been that way? And you've always told people this truth about yourself.

I always told people I can't ride a bike, it was my catch cry.
And it would always get the conversation flowing.

But as I sat down last year and decided what I wanted to set my mind to learning I added 'learn to ride a bike' to the list.

And within a few months the narrative that I had always had, was suddenly gone.

I am no longer the woman who believes bikes defy gravity.

We are never too old, never to set in our ways to change what is no longer working in our life.

Trigger Warning

This episode delves deep into my struggles around talking about my mental illness.

Whether it be my own worries about how I would be judged, or the comments that have actually been made by others.

Every single one of us has a brain (some use theirs more than others haha) but seriously we all have mental health....

So why is there STILL shame around having a mental health illness? When really ALL of us, with how much information, stress and the daily grind still believe we aren't going to at some point be subject to some form of a mental health illness.

Stats say 1 in 3 Aussie's will experience a form of mental health illness in their life, well that is those who come forward and admit it right? I say 1 in 1 Aussie's will at some point experience a day when their mental health isn't so great.

So we have come so far in changing the conversation and concerns around this.... let's continue that, let's educate EVERYONE that our brains and our mental health should be treated like ALL other health.

The thing with change is, most people resist it as much as humanly possible.

So when you are someone that embraces change, and shock horror even SEEKs it out. 

You are going to start making a lot of people around you uncomfortable.

But the most important thing to remember is, their discomfort is about them, not you.

They're going to try and convince you to 'stay small' to not do the incredibly scary thing, because as humans naturally we want to avoid uncertaintly.

You may even notice your closest circles start to change.. this my dear, is progress, this is you growing, and there is nothing to apologise for, if you're kind, compassionate and empathetic yet on your journey of living in your values and aligning yourself with your own purpose... let the journey take you where it needs to, and stop listening to the outside voices
