    • The Difference Between Giving Up and Giving In

      Are you a planner?  

      Do you have your day, week, year, life planned out?  

      What happens when those plans go sideways?

      As the saying goes, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans."

      When our life isn't turning out as we planned we get depressed and give up.  But what if, rather than giving up we gave in?

      In this episode I'll share with you how this Type A woman learned that  plans don't always work out but what's supposed to happen does and is truly what leads to our happiness.  I didn't give up on life I chose to give in to Spirit and allow life to unfold as it was meant to.

      If you want to learn more about how you can work with me to get past your fears and obstacles to create a life of joy and abundance go to alison-jacobson.com

    • Starting over at 50 to live your best life

      Siobhan Daniels is living the dream. She's 61 and, in her words, "ageing disgracefully."

      After 50, she began to find her voice and learnt to say “No!” to things in life she did not like and fight for things she supports.

      Around 50 she went backpacking around the world on her own, on a gap year from working at the BBC for 30 years.

      Since hitting the big 50 she has run two marathons, climbed the Three Yorkshire Peaks and Mount Mulanje in Malawi.

      Now, retired and over 60, she's living in her motorhome travelling Great Britain to challenge ageism and ageist stereotypes of what people think older women are doing in life.

      You can follow her adventures on Instagram @ShuvOnShuvOff
