The podcast currently has 39 episodes available.
In this episode, I’m overjoyed to say I am talking to Lodro Rinzler, a meditation teacher who has taught Buddhism for 20 years, starting when he was just 18 years old.
Lodro is the author of six meditation books including the bestseller The Buddha Walks into a Bar; and is the co-founder of the MNDFL meditation studios in New York City.
Lodro’s work has also been featured in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Atlantic, Good Morning America, CBS, and NBC.
Not only that, but it’s difficult for me to overstate how much of an impact Lodro has had on my career and understanding of how to apply the principles of mindfulness, meditation & Buddhism to my life.
He has - I hope he won’t mind me saying - become somewhat of a mentor to me, and has been my teacher on 3 separate training courses over the past few years, including on the principles of Buddhism and Buddhist theory - which was totally fascinating and very important to me as someone who originally came at meditation and mindfulness from a very secular, scientific point of view.
He has also been my teacher on 2 meditation teacher training meditation courses I have completed, including shamatha mindfulness meditation, and metta, loving-kindness meditation.
He is also extremely wise, and has managed to maintain a real sense of humour and approachability, despite being extremely learned in the principles of Buddhism and Buddhist theory.
I am totally honoured to have him on the episode today - and it also includes the most Buddhist definition of “being a badass” that I have ever heard, so you do not want to miss it!

This week, I’m talking to Charlotte Faure Green, a registered nutritional therapist who specialises in anxiety, stress, life burnout and sleep disorders.
Her approach is science and research-lead. It’s science - but with a cuddle.
As a chronic illness and burnout survivor she has walked the path herself, and intimately understands the challenges of staying well in body and mind in our fast-paced world.
She advocates real-world sustainable changes, focussing on getting the right things into your diet rather than stripping away the things that you love.
In this brilliant conversation, we chatted:
We also talked about how none of us are perfect when it comes to food and health, and how Charlotte stays healthy while juggling life as a business owner, mum, partner, night owl, and busy human!

This week, I’m talking to Sofia Latif, founder of Sofia Latif Oils, a “pro-aging”, award-winning vegan skincare and wellbeing company, which gives women the confidence to show off their skin and hair as these change with age.
Sofia’s approach to beauty helps women to build a kinder relationship with themselves, and uses 100% pure plant oils and nothing else that are selected for their nourishing, regenerating, and anti-inflammatory powers.
We also talked about the glorious TV trash that is Selling Sunset, our mutual love of houseplants and obsession with home decoration shows.

This week, I’m talking to Becki Freeman, founder of Lagom Finance. She offers accountancy services for female led businesses who want control, clarity and peace of mind over their finances.
We also chatted about the glories of trashy Netflix show Selling Sunset, and why talking about money is best served with cheese and wine.....
Oh, and FYI, “lagom” is a Swedish word which loosely translates as “just the right amount”. We talk about why this is such a great way to think about your finances later in the episode!
This conversation was honest, practical, and a total must-listen for anyone at any stage of business (even if you think you're "bad" with money and numbers, like me!)
Grab a glass of wine and a plate of cheese, and get number crunching....you will not regret it! ;)

This week, I’m talking to Becky Wong, a remote-working digital nomad, business manager, freelance writer, and the founder of digital nomad blog, Project Anywhere.
Becky started Project Anywhere to champion and support others who are on the road to remote work or running remote businesses.
She encourages you to choose your own “work adventure” and to show the multitude of colourful paths that you could go on – both in your work or in your personal life – that could end up taking you to absolutely anywhere (even in a post-Covid world)!
Plus, the joys of mountain views, rescue dogs, and vegan cooking!
This conversation was wide-ranging, funny, and most importantly, in these difficult times, hopeful! May it inspire you to go on your very own career adventure, whether that involves planning a post-Covid trip or simply working from home however suits you!

This week, I’m talking to Tamsin Williamson, an accredited Transformational Life Coach and mum-of-two, who goes by the name The Parenthood Coach.
Tamsin is passionate about supporting unfulfilled Mums who are stuck in a professional rut and feel confused about who they are and what they want from life since becoming a parent.
Through 1:1 coaching she helps her clients find more direction, confidence, balance and fulfilment, and empowers them to create a life where career and parenthood work in harmony.
This conversation was warm, open and honest - and I hope that it will offer some real food for thought, whether you’re already a parent, about to become one, thinking about it, or maybe simply have friends who have kids, and want a little insight into their lives and how you might support them better through the struggles and triumphs that come from such a life-changing experience as having children.

This week, I’m talking to Justine Hwang, an advocate for self-care, a social impact calligrapher, founder of It Just Flows, and a multi passionate entrepreneur.
As a burnout survivor with 20 years of experience in leadership development in the non-profit start up world, she is passionate about empowering compassionate doers to build a sustainable life with intention.
After burning out from a life of saying yes to everything, she revisited her childhood love of calligraphy and discovered its therapeutic nature in her recovery. As the founder of It Just Flows, she now hosts creative workshops teaching calligraphy as a tool for mindfulness, where she holds space for people to connect with themselves, and the community.
We also talked about the value of trashy TV, and why even coaches and so-called “experts” still struggle with the stuff they help other people to do (which is extremely relatable, let me tell you!).
This episode was incredibly inspiring - it made me want to go and get all my paints and fancy pens out and start throwing stuff down on paper to see what sticks - and it was such a joy to learn from Justine’s honesty, creativity, and insight.

This week, I’m talking to Glory-Anne Jones, a certified hypnotherapist who helps women through difficult patches in their life.
No matter the transformation they are going through - whether career issues, fear around pregnancy or self-worth crises - Glory-Anne helps women who feel lost, stressed, and alone to walk the path of personal transformation, and claim their true place in their own life.
This episode was honest, insightful and incredibly calming - Glory-Anne has a way of combining difficult mental concepts with practical tips, and is such a warm and open presence that I could not help but feel empowered and encouraged by her work and way with words.
We also began the conversation with a brilliant discussion about ice cream, sorbet, and the difference between UK and US “sherbet” - as Glory-Anne recorded this podcast outside on her deck in beautiful sunshine. Bliss!
And why being a freedom-seeking, female entrepreneur is such a rebellious act!

This week, I’m talking to Chelsea Galicia, a financial coach and author of the book S.A.V.E. Yourself: Develop the Financial Fitness to Spend in Alignment with your Values, not Ego.
Chelsea is really honest about how she doesn’t have an inspiring rags-to-riches story. In her own words, she wasn't just comfortable growing up, she had a front row view to the building of a mini empire. She saw what it took to run profitable multi-million dollar businesses but on the flip side, she saw the darker sides of success, up close and personal.
Today, Chelsea teaches small and solo business owners how to operate profitable companies that honor and align with their values, not with their ego. She's also a lawyer, but her proudest legal-career move was leaving the law firm that the empire was built upon, and doing her own thing.
Chelsea is warm, open, honest and genuinely helped bring clarity, compassion - and real practical advice! - to the topic of money and finances, which I find is so often cloaked in shame and secrecy.
And why mindful women making money has the power to create huge, positive changes for our society, politics, and the planet.

This week, I’m talking to Natasha Tiwari, an award-winning psychologist, entrepreneur and mentor investor, who has trained with some of the greats, including the one and only Brené Brown, and Deepak Chopra.
She is also a licensed psychotherapist and yoga teacher, and she combines her command of strategy with her knowledge of neuroscience, the unconscious mind and ancient wisdom, to propel her own entrepreneurial successes, and the successes of those who she counsels and mentors.
She has been featured by major publications including BBC World, Glamour, GQ, Marie Claire, The Telegraph, The Guardian, The London Evening Standard, and has guest lectured at the University of Oxford and University College London.
This conversation was a real joy, and I am genuinely surprised at how much juicy, honest and important issues we covered in 90 minutes.
We covered:
And what it means to “remember the magnificence of who you really are”...
