Habit Nerd

This week’s episode is short and sweet, but oh-so-powerful.

I’m sharing one mindset shift that’s been quietly changing everything the way I work, the way I parent, how I show up in friendships, even how I look after my health.

It’s this: Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

As a recovering all-or-nothing thinker (🙋‍♀️), I’ve spent years giving up on things because they didn’t go exactly to plan. If I didn’t have the full hour, full attention, or full team available, I’d throw in the towel. Sound familiar?

Hey Habit Nerds 👋

What comes to mind when you hear the word manifestation? Vision boards? Journaling? Hoping the universe just delivers?

Well... what if I told you there’s actually science behind it?

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Mel Crane — an evidence-based manifestation mentor (yes, that’s a thing!), and we dive into what manifestation really looks like when you strip away the fluff and ground it in real habits, real science, and real action.

Mel shares her personal journey with manifestation, and how one small habit, practicing gratitude, completely changed her life.

Connect with Mel and dive deeper into her work!

We’re officially halfway through the year. Can you believe it?
Whether the past six months felt like a blur or a breakthrough, now is the perfect time to pause and check in with yourself.

In this episode, I’m walking you through a simple Start, Stop, Continue reflection to help you realign your habits with the life you actually want, not just the one you’re managing to survive.

This isn’t about overhauling everything.
It’s about noticing what’s working, letting go of what’s not, and giving yourself permission to shift gears.

grab a notebook, take a deep breath, and let’s check in. You’ve done more than you think and there’s still plenty of time to finish the year strong (without burning out).

And if you’re a working mum who wants to build energy, boost productivity, and create sustainable systems at home and work, I’m creating something just for you. Join the waitlist for my coaching program, launching this September.

Being healthy doesn’t have to mean being hungry or hard on yourself.

In this episode, I’m joined by clinical nutritionist and personal trainer Rachelle Doss, and we’re unpacking what it really takes to build sustainable, identity-aligned health habits.

We talk about:

• Why small, consistent actions matter more than intense overhauls

• The link between self-worth and wellness

• How to fuel your body without sacrificing joy

• Realistic ways to include nutrition and movement in a full schedule

  
  

Rachelle brings so much warmth, practicality, and evidence-based advice to this conversation. I can’t wait for you to hear it.

Let’s talk about something a lot of us brush off as “just being tired” burnout.

In this episode, I open up about my own experience with burnout and how I initially ignored the signs. We dive into what truly differentiates burnout from everyday exhaustion, how it shows up in your body and mind, and what the research says about why it’s becoming more common, especially among high-achievers and working parents.

We’ll also explore the role of perfectionism, toxic work environments, and why even meaningful work can become draining without the right systems in place. Most importantly, I’ll walk you through practical strategies and habits that have helped me (and many of my clients) find energy again. Things like boundary-setting, prioritising deep work, and building recovery into your day, not just on weekends.

If you’ve been feeling flat, disconnected, or simply worn out, this episode is a chance to pause and reassess. Burnout is serious but it’s also preventable, and you’re not alone.

And if you’re a working mum who wants to build energy, boost productivity, and create sustainable systems at home and work, I’m creating something just for you. Join the waitlist for my coaching program, launching this September.

Habits for Financial Abundance with Carla Townsend

Let’s talk about money, the kind that flows with ease and intention. In this episode, I’m joined by money mindset and success coach Carla Townsend from Money Mindset Hub. We go deep on the habits behind the abundance, not just the practical stuff, but the internal dialogue and identity shifts that truly shape your financial life.

We chat about:

• How to shift from scarcity to abundance
• The role of embodiment when it comes to wealth
• Why your habits, not your income, are the key to financial peace
• And how being “delusionally optimistic” (yes, really!) can actually work in your favor

Carla reminds us that money habits are an extension of our personal power and when we take ownership of our story, we unlock new levels of freedom.

Tune in and get ready to feel empowered around money.

Tag me with your favorite takeaway — I’d love to hear what lands for you.

A Simple Blueprint for Creating Good Habits (and Breaking the Bad Ones)

Ever wondered why some habits stick like glue and others fall off after a week? In this episode, I’m breaking it all down the science, the psychology, and the sneaky systems that either help or sabotage our habits.

We’ll talk about how nearly half of what you do every day runs on autopilot (yes, really!), and how you can finally start using that to your advantage. I’ll walk you through how to make good habits easier and more rewarding—and the bad ones harder to maintain.

Feeling Anxious? Simple Habits to Reset with Anna Ferguson

This week, I’m so excited to welcome Anna Ferguson, counsellor, author, and anxiety coach, to the show! We’re diving deep into the world of anxiety and, more importantly, the small but powerful habits that can help you reset when it all feels too much.

Anna and I chat about why hydration is more than just a glass of water—hello, electrolytes!—and how multitasking might be sneaking extra stress into your day without you even realizing it. We also unpack the difference between feeling anxious and living with chronic anxiety (hint: it’s more common than you think).

Anna shares her favorite ways to regulate the nervous system, from movement and dance to spending time in nature and finding those green spaces that can bring so much calm. We talk about how to listen to your body, the magic of repetition for creating a sense of safety, and the power of self-compassion on the hard days.

Plus, we get real about why community support can make all the difference when you’re trying to build healthier habits because let’s be honest, no one should have to do this alone.

Tune in for a warm, honest conversation that’ll leave you feeling empowered to take small, meaningful steps toward a calmer, more resilient you.

Let’s be real, procrastination isn’t about laziness. Most of the time, it’s about overwhelm. The pressure. The perfectionism. The endless to-do list. 🙃

In this episode, I share the exact moment I was yelling at a podcast (true story) and what it revealed about how we talk about and deal with procrastination.

If you’ve been stuck, spinning, or self-sabotaging... this is your permission slip to try something different. No shame. No guilt. Just tools that work — especially for women who are holding a lot. 💛

In this powerful episode, I’m joined by Martin Stark—author, advocate, and the self-declared “Courage Champion.” And honestly? You’ll understand exactly why after hearing this conversation.

Martin opens up about living with Addison’s disease and the daily choices he makes to maintain his physical and mental well-being. We dive into what it really looks like to practice courage—not in a once-off, big dramatic way, but as a habit. Something you build into your everyday life.

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt stuck, scared, or unsure of the next step. Martin’s lived experience and practical wisdom are such a gift, and I’m so excited to share them with you.
