  • S3 Ep26: The Inner Critic: Interview w/ Steve Chapman

    Send us Fan Mail

    The inner critic. The inner bully. Whatever the name - it's the voice inside our mind that often sabotages the life we dream of - and deserve. It tells us we're not good enough, smart enough, brave enough (and any other 'enough-ness' you'd like to add). It can be debilitating - always pulling us back to playing small.

    In this episode we interview TEDx speaker Steve Chapman - who back in 2017 gave a groundbreaking talk about the inner critic. We came across his work recently and knew you would relate to his journey and wisdom - as we did.

    From personal experience these are important conversations to have - so we feel comfortable bringing awareness and compassion to our own inner critic.

  • S3 Ep22: I've Stopped Trusting Myself

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode, we explore why, at midlife, it's incredibly common to no longer trust ourselves, the decisions we make, or our ability to follow through on goals.

    We have experienced many 'failures' by this point in our lives and therefore, have become full of self doubt.

    We reveal in more detail what's really going on and how to move past the lack of self trust, so you can truly live the extraordinary life you so deserve.

    We hope you enjoy it.

  • S3 Ep19: Is Your Diet making You Fat?

    Send us Fan Mail

    In this episode we explore why diets truly can be making you fat. 

    Although we understand how addictive the yo yo diet trap can be, at midlife you're doing your body and mind more harm than good. 

    You can no longer get away with treating yourself this way if you wish to live a long and happy life.

    So - it's time to reinvent healthy eating and create a better relationship with food. For good.

    And here we'll explain the how and the why....

    We hope you enjoy it.
