A big warm and loving welcome to you!! I was a little lost for words as I began episode 1 because I am so thrilled to be able to share this new platform with you all. 

My vision behind this podcast is to create a platform where we can deeply connect and share beautiful, loving and supportive conversations as well as the conversations that are difficult to have. I was craving a more intimate connection with other mum's who struggle with anxiety, like the women I support in my private coaching practice, so I hope that you get something out of these beautiful messages that I just can't wait to share with you. 

Join me as we discuss just how beautiful your role as Heart of the Home is - whether you’re a stay at home mum, working mum, mum of 1 or 5, or you’re just trying to conceive to call a little person your own - no matter what it looks like for you, you are the heart of the home, friend. 

IN THIS EPISODE I COVER:

+ The beautiful role you have as the heart of the home.
+ How your role as a mother is so incredibly powerful even when you feel powerless. 
+ The shifts you can make to create a new atmosphere in your home. 
+ Why taking care of yourself needs to be the very first thing you achieve before taking care of your family.
+ Plus, a big welcome to each of you!

I have another beautiful guest on the show for you today and we're going to be chatting all about making magic in motherhood. Our guest today, Emily Greaves, is a mama and a coach to mama's who is passionate about empowering and supporting women to change their narrative around motherhood, allowing them to soften, slow down, and create a whole new way of being that aligns with who they are and how they want to live their life. Emily loves to help her fellow mums find the confidence and space to be themselves, to rewrite the rules and share their gifts with the world in whatever capacity that looks like. She is passionate about helping them to clear the roadblocks getting in the way of them thriving so that they can make magic in motherhood.

Today we chat about:
+ What it means to make magic in motherhood and how each of us can have our own unique journey.

+ Beautiful tools and practices that you can begin to use if you feel depleted, defeated and burned out in motherhood.

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
