Forgive and Thrive

In today’s episode, we talk with Erin Harrigan, a coach, speaker, and author, to talk about the hustle culture and how we can escape it, or better we can redefine hustle. With Erin, we explore the harmful effects of overworking, and the benefits of prioritising rest and self-care, and embracing a new approach to achieving success, one that emphasises balance, mindfulness, and self-compassion. We discover how we can redefine hustle in our own lives and find a more sustainable and fulfilling path to our goals.

In today’s episode, we talk about with Dr Gary Lawrence (aka Dr G), a coach and author, about navigating rejections and the psychological rollercoaster they can put us on. Dealing with rejection is a difficult, and yet it’s an inevitable part of life. Whether it's a job opportunity, a romantic relationship, or any other type of endeavour, facing rejection can be emotionally challenging and can take a toll on one's self-esteem. In this episode, we explore different aspects of navigating rejections, including what rejection is, how to cope with it in a healthy way, the importance of self-esteem in handling rejection, the benefits of learning from rejection, and how to balance optimism and realism. We also discuss strategies that can be used to manage the emotional impact of rejection and turn it into an opportunity for growth and self-improvement.

In today’s episode, we talk with Christina Woods, a licensed Rapid Transformational Therapist®, Clinical Hypnotherapist, Empowerment Coach, and Reiki Master. With Christina, we talk about traditional hypnosis, and a specific type of hypnotherapy called Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT). Hypnosis is often used to overcome self-doubt, break through limiting beliefs, and achieve our goals. In particular, we want to understand what we can achieve that, what the effectiveness of hypnosis is, its benefits, and drawbacks, if any, and more generally what people can expect from it.

From distorted, perfection-driven standards to excessive and unhealthy beauty practices, we examine the ways in which the pursuit of beauty can become a dangerous obsession. We reflect on the role of social media in perpetuating these harmful beauty ideals but it's not all doom and gloom - we also discuss some positive exceptions and explore strategies for redefining beauty standards and promoting a more inclusive, empowering vision of beauty that prioritises self-care and self-love over appearance. Join us as we delve into the dark side of beauty and uncover the truth about what it really means to be beautiful in today's world.

In today’s episode, we talk with Tamara Zoner, a speaker, coach, and fellow podcaster, about living a life by design. We often think – and perhaps say – of how tired, unsatisfied, and unfulfilled we are of our life. We might look back on our lives and wonder where all the time went, and why we didn't make the most of it. We might feel like we're not living up to our potential, or that we're not making a meaningful impact on the world around us. If this sounds familiar, then the good news is that it doesn't have to be this way. By intentionally designing our lives, we can create a future that aligns with our values, passions, and goals. With Tamara, we explore the concept of living a life by design, why it's important, and how you can start taking steps towards designing the life of your dreams.

In today’s episode, we talk with Te’ Youngblood, a Trauma Release Guide, Practical Reiki Master, Author, Speaker, Podcaster, and Blogger, on how to raise healthy boundaries. Raising healthy boundaries is a critical aspect for everyone, but even more so after a sexual trauma. There are strong connections between having traumatic experiences, especially of sexual nature, and our ability to raise healthy boundaries. We become more vulnerable to traumatic experiences if we have poor boundaries or worse, we lack them, but also every traumatic experience knocks down the boundaries we have.
