  • Minisode Ep.70 - Do You Want To Be Right, Or Do You Want To Be Happy?

    Send us Fan Mail

    Support the show

    On today's minisode I talk about the choice we have between being right, and being happy.

    So often our ego selves are just dying to be right. Even when it's something insignificant, something that really doesn't matter, our ego is always itching to prove its point.

    But more often than not,  needing to be right or prove our point leads to stress, conflict and discomfort which, quite frankly, we could do without. 

    Our higher self, on the other hand, just wants to be at peace and really couldn't care less about winning the argument. 

    So what might happen if we chose peace and happiness over being 'right'? What if we chose kindness over getting the upper hand?

    On this week's episode, I'm talking about the day I met up with an ex-boyfriend about a year ago. 

    This is probably my most vulnerable episode yet, and it was actually recorded at the end of the day we spent together. However I sounded so emotional when I listened back to it that I decided not to put it out at the time. But here we are, just over a year later, and I thought "Screw it". 

    So brace yourselves. It ain't pretty!

    You may well have heard me talk about Joe Dispenza on the podcast before, but his conversation on Steven Bartlett's Diary of a CEO is really worth checking out, not least because it could potentially change your life.  Just saying.

    On today's minisode, I'm talking about 10 things I think we should have been taught in school.

    It's all very well teaching kids maths, science and history, but what about the more intangible things that can really move the needle when it comes to actual LIFE?

    From aiming to fail and embracing fear, to taking messy action and being authentic, these are some of the things I share my thoughts on. I hope you enjoy it!

    On this week's Thursday Thoughts, Polly & I are talking about alignment - what it is, what it means for our lives, why it can be hard, and how to go about 'getting into' it.

    Ultimately, being in alignment means living a life that feels true to who we are. It means feeling that 'flow' state, and it means feeling good. And how doesn't want that?!

    We hope you'll find something useful in here.
