  • Ep 17 - Campfire Sessions - Sue Harper

    I’ve been working on the new podcast :) There’s now the addition of my ‘campfire’ series.


    I’m interviewing some inspirational people, if you would like to be part of it let me know ;)

    In this first episode, I chat with Sue Harper, The first British woman to lead an expedition to the top of Everest!

    We talk about using your intuition, near-death events on the mountain, facing fears and quite a bit more. As always with my podcast, there’s practical stuff at the end for you to try.

    Have a great day, there’s even a new intro - I think it’s quite catchy lol.

  • Ep 14 - Flexible Routines

    Are you part of the 5am club?


    I have been. Getting up early to make sure I could complete my routine nice and early and really kickstart my day. I also know it doesn't work for some people.

    I've been through that too. As I've learned to understand my own needs I developed a more flexible way to think about a consistent routine.

    It makes sure I get done what I need to in a way that suits me.

    I explain how in this week's podcast :)

    Hope you're having a great day x

  • Ep 12 - My Simple Fitness Journey

    When I was 18 I could run a mile in 5.26 minutes... that changed...

    I went to 14 stone... for me that's big. 

    Looking back I didn't realise the shape I had gotten into. I actually felt quite good about myself.

    But when I was told I wouldn't run again... maybe I might be able to jog, if I was lucky. 

    I just decided to try.

    I share my 3 simple exercise and diet tips in this episode.

    You could really take advantage of this lockdown x

  • Ep 9 - Connected Networks
    Fungi...
    How interesting could a conversation around mushrooms be?
    I'm standing in the woods. Quietly appreciating the quiet stillness. The dappled sunlight sparkling on the forrest floor. A beautiful mix of auburn, reds and browns.
    Floating on top. Small spots of white drawing my attention. I bent down to pick one.
    I wondered what type of mushroom it might be...
    I also knew exactly who to ask.
    Later, I had the chance to question my friend.
    We discussed the mushroom... but what emerged in the conversation was fascinating.
    While mushrooms might be the most familiar part of a fungus, most of their bodies are made up of a mass of thin threads, known as a mycelium.
    We now know that these threads act as a kind of underground internet, linking the roots of different plants.
    That tree in your garden is probably hooked up to a bush several metres away, thanks to mycelia.
    They use this network to help each other.
    This got me thinking about the network between people.
    An interconnected network of family, friend's and aquantances all there to potentially help you.
    In my opinion it's this network that support you and it's very much in your interest to know, choose and nurture your network.
    We're all connected to the network in some way.
    The question is are you nurturing or ingnoring yours?
    I go a bit deeper into this experience and my thoughts in this week's podcast.

  • Ep 8 - Simple Communication

    The brain wants to eat a pineapple volcano...


    er... what?

    So, when was the last time you played Chinese whispers?

    It may have been a while and although it's a very simple game it can still be great fun. Old schools style.

    It also illustrates perfectly the importance of specific communication.

    Know what you have to say, how you listen and then how you communicate all contribute to the effectiveness.

    Sadly, many issues we face are due to poor communication.  

    At some point in the relationship, project or even the just watching the news.

    The messages didn't get through clearly or we misunderstood. That's where the problems begin.

    This week's podcasts go deeper into this subject and has little tip you can try too. Link below.

    Can you guess the original Chinese whisper?
