Today's episode is all about the importance of allowing ourselves to experience every emotion - even the negative ones.

When we ignore our anxiety, stress or sadness we don't allow the emotions to be fully processed and instead we hold onto them.  Over time this compounds until eventually the emotions HAVE To be released.  More often than not, this is NOT pretty!

I've learned that it's far better to acknowledge when we are feeling low so that we can deal with the issue fully and then move on.

The Confident Mummy Diaries is a weekly series as part of The Confidence Academy Podcast.

Each week I will share what I've been through that week as a new Mum of two week old Sophia Grace.

The aim of this series is to talk openly about the ups and downs of being a new Mum and to highlight exactly how I navigate my own anxiety issues on a day to day basis.

One of my biggest issues when I was diagnosed with GAD 5 years ago, was I thought I was the only one who was struggling and that made me feel like a failure.

I now know that so many of us have these challenges and it has been my experience that the more I talk about them, the easier they are to overcome.

I hope this inspires you and helps you to see that you're not on your own and there IS a way to thrive in spite of the anxiety!

In this episode I chatted to Harriette Hale - Leading Money Mindset Expert & Coach in the UK and Priestess of Light!

But rather than focusing on money mindset, this episode was all about the power of forgiveness.  

Harriette shared her own personal story of how she learned this lesson and then shared how we can harness the power for ourselves.

This is a really important topic because often people misunderstand what the term 'forgiveness' really means.  They think it means letting people walk all over them or turning a blind eye...

But it's so much deeper than that...of course!

Enjoy!

In this episode I shared a story that I posted on my blog earlier this week that got MASSIVE attention!

It seems like so many people resonated with what I was talking about which was our tendency to believe that we are not enough on our own.  That somehow we need to find other people, things, experiences to fulfil and validate us.

So check it out and I'd love to know what you think about the subject.  Do get in touch with me with your comments and questions...especially now as I am SOO pregnant!  It will be nice to have some messages to read!
