Real & Raw

This #BridgingTheGap mini series is designed to help you BRIDGE THE GAP between where you are at currently to where you want to be. I truly believe that one of the fundamental parts of us achieving our goals is understanding the steps we need to take along the way. It can be extremely overwhelming thinking about our end goal whilst we’re not even on the starting blocks yet. Allow me to walk you through an episode all about MEDITATION, so that you can introduce this wonderfully soul nourishing ritual into your daily routine. 

In this episode you will find out;

• What meditation is
• How to do it and the different methods
• Why it’s important
• My top tricks for consistency with meditation

Did you start the year feeling inspired and motivated and now you’re feeling perhaps the opposite, maybe you achieved some of your goals but not all of them and you’re feeling a bit flat, deflated or frustrated. Maybe you’re even beating yourself up over it? But fear not because in this episode I walk you through the very strategy I use and the one I teach my life coaching clients to ensure you remain on track with your goals whilst reflecting on them honestly to understand perhaps why you didn’t achieve certain goals and how you can ensure that you make the most out of the rest of 2022. 

In this episode you will learn;

• How to reflect on your goals WITH COMPASSION
• Motivation vs consistency and the role they play in your goals
• How goal setting correlates with self love

You've most likely heard or seen the term SELF LOVE before and perhaps wondered why you don't have it,  how on earth you obtain it,  or what it even means?

• What is self love really  (and what it isn't)
• How to find + work on your self love
• What is self acceptance
• How do you start with self acceptance + why is it important

Officially two years into my motherhood journey I thought it was important to do a round up of the things I've learnt since becoming a mother, not about how to raise a child (which is a WHOLE other ball game) but how to mentally cope and navigate through this whirlwind that is known as parenting! Personally I feel like there isn't enough long format conversations discussing the challenges we face as mothers (and the anxiety!) that draw on the mental challenges we face as women and mothers. Whether you're a mother, soon-to-be mother, or not a mother at all, you will find value in this episode that you can transfer in to your own life / journey.

In this episode you'll hear about;

• The mental strain motherhood can put on you (& how to cope)
• The importance self development has within my motherhood journey
• The questions to ask yourself + your partner before thinking of having another child
• How I run multiple businesses and manage motherhood (& the challenges that come with this)

Are you tired of getting in your own way? Time after time you set a goal and then struggle to follow through with it because you've acquired a set of limiting behaviours that conflict with achieving the desired outcome of your goals.  I want you to know that SO many people do this, and there is a deep-rooted reason as to why, it's not because you're "lazy or un-motivated" it's because there is a part of you that needs some TLC, nurturing and healing.

It's not just our goals that we sabotage, we can do this within relationships / friendships  and our careers.

In this episode you'll find out;

• What self sabotage is
• Why we do it
• Most importantly - how to stop it!

As always, touching on first hand authentic experiences so that you can feel related to, heard and seen. Remember, we are in this together, and I am here to help you in bridging the gap from where you are at currently to where you want to be.

In this episode I talk to you about mindful dating rather than mindless! Whether you believe in marriage or not, the point of this episode is to shine a light on whether you are repeating your dating habits or not. 

Within this episode you will find out how to ask yourself the right questions to establish whether the guys/girls you’re dating are just hot vs long term relationship appropriate.

Incase you didn’t realise, our time on this planet isn’t unlimited so let’s not waste our time dating the wrong types of people.
