  • Episode 32 - Doing Your Best

    It's been over a year since I recorded an episode.

    I felt I was running out of inspiration and I didn't want to continue to produce something if my heart wasn't in it.

    I am feeling reinvigorated, inspired and, more importantly, passionate about producing a podcast that adds value, entertains and hopefully makes a difference to at least one person.

    With that in mind, here's the new episode of the Choosing Happy Podcast.

    Thanks for listening,

    Heather.

    Doing Your Best.

    My dad always said that if I did my best I would be okay.

    I didn't believe that looks or schmoozing was me or would get me anywhere. It felt more authentic to accept the premise that doing my best would always get me good results. So, I embraced this as a fundamental belief that would shape my work ethic and my measure of myself.

    It has been traumatic for me to discover that this belief just isn't true.

    I explore this and more in this weeks Choosing Happy Podcast.

    I do hope you find this episode useful. Please share if you think this can help someone you know.

  • Day 13 - Choosing Your Support Plan

    Welcome to 100 days of Happy - 100 ways to include Happy practices in your life and business.

    And HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Wishing you all good things for 2022!

    These are short podcast episodes - aiming for between 7 - 10 minutes where I explore was to build positivity and energy into your day, and relieve stress and tension.

    With the fear and discord that is present and building in the world, I invite you to help me lift the energy of planet by starting with you and Choosing Happy for a few minutes each day.

    Day 13 - Choosing Your Support Plan

    Today's episode is the first in a series of six episodes about choosing your support plan. It's specific to the times we're living in. It's about how we get through the uncertainty and chaos of what lies before us.

    As we come out of the pandemic, how do we do that in a way that's resilient, resourceful, and positive? That supports, not only ourselves, but others around us? How do we create the community and the vision for the way forwards that helps the planet, and humanity?

    Here is the disclaimer. Nothing I share in this week's series of podcasts is meant to be taken as health or financial advice. These are things that I have tried and practiced for myself. They are for educational purposes only. You try them at your own risk.

    Community and Connection

    My belief is that we win when we are compassionate, connecting and communicating unconditionally. When we are building a community of like-minded souls supporting each other through the dark days.

    Be kind to those around you. They are living their own version of reality. If you want to be in conflict ensure it's aimed in the right direction. Be the example, by rejecting separation and embracing all, no matter where they are on their journey. Be the light, the example others want to follow.

    I have created a community and resource pages on the Choosing Happy website at www.choosinghappy.co.uk - all will be available on day 6 - This was an intuitive urge to do this, to step up in my own way.

  • Episode 31- Choosing Your New Story

    Have you chosen your story for 2022? Are you playing the leading role as the hero or are you playing a bit part, an extra going through the motions and not truly showing up?

    Last week. I attended Sue night's workshop, 'You unique story for success' . It was a fascinating journey of exploring 'true self' and the story we each want to create for ourselves.

    I learned a few things that added weight and put 'meat on the bones' of previous experiences and lessons. I share some of those key lessons in this episode with the hope to assist you in creating and choosing your new story.

    I share three ways of exploring your story and three lessons I learned that may be of value to you on your journey.

    I do hope you find this episode useful. Please share if you think this can help someone you know.
