"Do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life." This has always been one of my all time favorite quotes because in my experience, life always felt way more rewarding and way less stressful when I was operating from a place of fun and purpose.

But I've had moments this year when I've experienced the feeling of stress and burnout despite doing work that I love, and despite being surrounded by great people. And with everything that has happened in 2020, my guess is that you have experienced something like this too!

In this episode I discuss a recent experience with burnout and how frustrated I was at not being able to give 100% to my work and passions. It even had me questioning whether I was truly passionate about those things in the first place! But, what I learned was that you can't expect yourself to perform at 100%, 100% of the time. And sometimes it's even ok to be at 50%.

In a time when it's so easy to compare yourself to your friends, your peers or people you follow online, I believe that finding a balance between ambition and grace can be a good starting point to managing the risk of burnout, that has had a negative impact on so many.

Would you believe me if I told you that imposter syndrome delayed the release of this podcast by several months?
Or if I told you that whilst I've had so many great ideas and visions for various things, I've often struggled with how to execute and bring those ideas to life?
How about the fact that even though I have a technical background I sometimes find working in the online space pretty challenging?

By now you might have guessed that I did figure out a way to release the podcast and overcome the obstacles mentioned earlier. In this episode I share 3 tips that have always helped me get out of a rut,  beat overwhelm and forge ahead with my goals and dreams. I am positive that these 3 ideas will help you too!

So let’s talk about a series of unfortunate events which led to me discovering my purpose as a motivational speaker.  

Having worked in the fin-tech industry for a number of years it all came to a head when my mum became ill, my friendship group fell apart and I was left heartbroken after a relationship breakup. Yes that all happened in the space of just a few months. So I took some time off and during this period of reflection, I became intrigued by the world of self-help and personal development. I also reconnected with my faith and my  God given purpose - to use my story to help other people thrive despite their stories.

I believe we all experience events that can be a catalyst for transformation. When this happens, even the jobs, relationships and things we used to care about don't seem to matter anymore. We start to see life through a new lense and get drawn to a  new place that feels more like home.

I promised to keep it real with you - so here it is. Just over a week ago I lost my mum to cancer.

In this episode I share 3 tips that have helped me navigate this season of grief. Not going around it, or side stepping it but going through it. Hopefully these tips will act as a resource for anyone who has ever experienced the pain of losing a loved one. One of the biggest things that helped me was focusing on all the amazing experiences and moments that I got to share with her. I think about the faithfulness of God's timing and I can only feel blessed for the time I had with her.

Dedicated to Cynthia Clements, Rest in Eternal Peace Mum ❤️
