This podcast was inspired by Edith Eger work. If you haven't read her books - The Choice and The Gift, we highly recommend them. 
One of our first fears is of abandonment. We learn from an early age to get the 3 As - Attention, Affection and Approval from others. We figure out what to do, or whom to become in order to get our needs met. Edith discusses that the problem isn't about doing these things in the first place but that we KEEP doing them because we think we must in order to be loved. 
It is dangerous to put our whole life into someone else's  hands. We must become the source of our own 3As.
Tune in as we discuss some personal stories of how our 3As were met by others and the tips we go about in order to be our own source of love and power. 
As Edith puts so beautifully - "You are the only one you're going to have for a lifetime. So how can you be the best loving, unconditional, no-nonsense caregiver to yourself?

Happy 2022!!! 
2022 hasn't exactly started the way I wanted, nor has it for many people I know. But 2022 has already given me some gold that I must share with you all. 
If you're someone who experiences anxiety from time to time or you're someone who is going through a rough patch, this episode is for you. Tune in as I share a recent anxiety filled story and what I did to help me 'go through it.'
I share 5 tips on how you can manage your own anxiety
1. label how you're feeling in the moment. Accept that is how you feel. In other words, don't run from it. "Right now, I'm having a fear thought...' etc 
2. Redirect your anxious or fear thoughts by responding to them with... "I'm not going to think about that right now..." Or if you're having visual images, say..."Change the channel...." Redirect as many times as you need too but know that you're in control of how you respond to those thoughts. 
3. Calm your Vagus nerve from giving yourself a high five to the heart (thanks Mel Robbins). Repeat, chant, sing the following words - "NAME, it's okay, you're safe, you're loved. 4.
4. Change your environment. Go outside. Connect in with your senses... "What's 5 things you can see, 4 things you can hear, 3 things you can touch, 2 things you can smell, 1 thing you can taste...." Move your body. Pace. Walk. Jump up and down. Create movement in your body to help regulate your emotions. 
5. Turn to gratitude. Think about the outcome you want to see. Speak out loud what you want to see happen. Give thanks for the things you DO have in your life.

#80 2021 Life Updates with Meah

Are you a chronic over-thinker? Or do you analyse things to death? 
If you're one of the above I'm pretty certain you'll struggle with making decisions. 
In today's episode I share the top 5 things that get in your way from making a decision and give you helpful tips to get you back on track. 
Here the the top 5 blockages people have when it comes to making decisions - in my opinion anyway.
1. You've forgotten the bigger picture or you may not know what the end goal is
2. Your trying to please too many people and don't listen to your own voice
3. Self Doubt and Insecurity rule you
4. You have the desire to be perfect / struggle with perfectionism 
5. Or have the lack of Mentality or I'm not enough mentality

Have a beautiful 2 weeks and see you back on the 30th November 2021 :)

#79 What's stopping you from making decisions?

It's been a minute since we've released an episode and there's been a lot going on. Pour yourself a coffee and get yourself comfortable as we (Hannah) shares all.  

#78 Alpha Babes Update - What the hell is going on?

Do you suffer from mental load?
What is mental load?
The mental load is all the mental work, the organising, list-making and planning, that you do to manage your life, and that of those dependent on you. Most of us carry some form of mental load, about our work, household responsibilities, financial obligations and personal life; but what makes up that burden and how it's distributed within households is not always equal (www.abc.net.au).
Tune in as we discuss our mental load and how to decrease it in order to be more connected to life.
