Each of us have our own light that needs to be shared in every corner, in every arena, in every department, field, and sector. Our light can look like hope to others, compassion, kindness, encouragement, support. It could be a gift, an offering, a service or just a hand to hold. Whatever your light looks like, it's needed now! Join me in this episode as I share with you what stopped me from sharing my light and why it's time that we ALL need to step into and fully own our own beautiful light. The world is full of darkness, and your light is needed now more than ever.

In this episode I cover:
+ What got in the way of me sharing and fully owning my beautiful light.
+ Why all of our light is needed now more than ever.
+ Encouragement and a permission slip for you to fully shine your light NOW. 

So stop dimming and start shining.

I'm really conscious right now about adding to the noise of everything that's going on around us. I don't want to tell you about all the things you could be getting done or should be ticking off your list because to be honest, I don't think that's very helpful at all. So in today's episode, I share a bit of a different perspective. Could this time be used as a re-set instead?

In this episode I cover:
+ Why feeling stuck could be an invitation to re-assess and re-calibrate.
+ What I believe is being asked of us right now. 
+ How feeling intense heaviness, overwhelm and feeling stuck and unmotivated could be a signal you're holding onto things that you need to let go of before you can move forward. 

This is just an intuitive perspective, take what you like and leave the rest XO

We are currently facing a very different version of what life normally looks like like for us right now. Things are uncertain and unclear and often that can bring a lot of fear and overwhelm. In this week's episode I walk you through 4 ways that I move through this overwhelm during times of uncertainty. As a highly sensitive soul, I have to protect myself, protect my energy and be really mindful and conscious about what I'm giving my attention too. I needed to share this episode with you today because I know many of you will need to hear it.

In this episode I cover:
+ The physical response your body has when it experiences times of stress and anxiety and how being aware of this allows you to move through the overwhelm.
+ 4 ways to effectively manage the overwhelm you are currently feeling during these times. 
+ The importance of coming together as a collective and supporting each other during these times. 
+ An incredible opportunity to go deeper into this with support and guidance from a community who are just like you.

In today's episode I cover:
+ My 2020 vision and how I'm approaching this year completely differently to 2019.
+ How I began The Essential Home Collective 2 years ago and why my anxiety completely changed the course of my business.

Welcome back for episode number 4! I really hope you are getting something out of these messages and love them as much as I love creating them for you. Thank you again for joining me, beautiful!

In today's episode I share some beginning practices for mum's with anxiety and how they can begin to create some beautiful changes. But before we can begin to create any change, we have to WANT to create change. Often what I see happen is mum's are struggling with anxiety but they don't realise that there's another way of living. They almost become resigned to the fact that this is just their life and they have to live with it. 

But I'm here to tell you that there IS another way of living! A way of living that can feel good as you move through your day, no matter how your anxiety shows up for you. And you certainly don't have to "put up with it" or "deal with it" either.  

IN THIS EPISODE I COVER:

+ The first thing we must do before we can begin to create any change in our life. 
+ 6 practices that I have implemented in my life as I began my healing journey with anxiety, and most of them I still do today.
+ How to begin creating a deep awareness around your anxiety so you know how you can move forward.
+ Some prompts you can ask yourself to get really clear on your triggers so you can put systems in place to support you next time. 
+ A key element in your healing journey with anxiety that might not be what you expect

I would love to know which practices you will try and how they support you. Remember to tag me on Instagram so I can join you!

Anxiety in motherhood can look different to each of us but in this episode I share with you how some women have shared with me, what anxiety is like for them as a mum. I also share my own journey with anxiety and how, although I didn't recognise it at the time, it's been a struggle since I was a little girl.

IN THIS EPISODE I COVER:

+ The different ways we see how anxiety impacts us in motherhood.
+ My anxiety journey and how it's something I've struggled with since I was a little girl.
+ What the catalyst was for me when I became determined to change my life.
+ How I manage now with 3 kids, a husband, a business and a home to run.

You are not alone.

Welcome back to another episode on the Heart of the Home podcast. I'm so honoured you're here!

In today's episode I share one powerful tool that has supported me and really been a crucial part of my healing journey with anxiety over the last 12 to 18 months. And that's......WRITING.

I never considered myself to be a writer so this concept was completely new to me. I had tried journaling many times in the past but I really struggled to see the benefits of it or how it was supportive. So I would stop. But these last 12 to 18 months my writing practice has really unlevelled and now I do. more writing than ever. My body FEELS it when I haven't written or journaled for some time. 

IN THIS EPISODE I COVER:

+ How I use writing as an incredibly powerful tool to process some of the big and heavy stuff that us mum's feel.
+ Why I believe us mum's struggle to use writing as a tool to support ourselves.
+ How to recognise within your body when you need to process some of the heaviness you experience.
+ How I use writing being a HSP and over-thinker. 
+ A simple yet effective starting practice for you to begin your writing journey.
+ A beautiful opportunity to join a FREE community of women to being your supportive writing journey straight away.
