April 18, 2019 Ep 8: Stop cancelling on yourself!
How often do you cancel on a work meeting? Or lunch with a friend? Not that often huh?
So why do we cancel on ourselves all the time?
I know, I know, you’re busy...you had that workout scheduled into your day but then something else came up and now you’re ‘working out tomorrow instead’. Sorry, but that’s not good enough anymore.
You need to start treating yourself as if you are JUST as important as that work meeting or catch up with the girls. I run you through the things that I pre-schedule into my calendar a year in advance and WHY I do not cancel on them.
If you’re dreaming of more me time, more quality time with your partner and more time to workout then this episode is for you!

April 06, 2019 Ep 6: Why ‘I’ll be happy when...’ is a lie and how you can be happy NOW!
Stop saying I’ll be happy when and start being happy right now! What is it that you’re waiting for? To lose that last 5kg? To go on that holiday you’ve been saving up for? To buy that house? To get over that ex partner? Whatever it is...you’re wishing your life away. In this episode we explore the life that’s happening for you RIGHT NOW! We celebrate your wins (big or small). The time to do the things you want to do and feel the way you want to feel is now! Not when you’ve ‘reached that goal’.

March 11, 2019 Episode 3: Get clear on WHY you are unhappy in your relationship
Have you ever had that feeling that you’ve had SUCH a bad day and then realised it was actually only 1 or 2 things that threw you off?
What if you’re doing that with your relationship too?
It can be easy to generalise and feel like your whole relationship isn’t going well...but that may not be the case.
Ask yourself these simple questions to get clear on exactly why you feel frustrated within your relationship and also dive into how you can approach these things from a place of love, rather than reactive frustration
