Mindset Coach Efia Sulter joins me this week to talk about her work helping others with deep transformation in their lives. Her unique approach teaches you how to release deep seated beliefs around worthiness and shed the layers of shame so you can embody your higher self.

I loved the idea of believing you are extraordinary and giving yourself permission to trust in your own superpowers. Efia also has some interesting thoughts on what success looks like for women and how it could symbolise failure in competing areas.

I hope you take away something from this episode, and if you want to know more, you can download The Bad B*tch Blueprint from Efia – a free 5-day workbook designed to help you release the past, reignite your spark and rediscover your power.

I was so nervous for today's chat because I grew up watching Carolyn Taylor on What Now! We talk about how that experience changed her, and how it helped her frame the rest of her working life.

We also talk slowing it down, and the tips and tricks she uses to ground herself. She, like me, believes in the seasons of life. We can't have it all! However, we can enjoy what we've got, when we have it. Carolyn also had some good tips of keeping your body moving and how that can quiet the mind. I hope you enjoy this episode!

Mikki Fisher is a force of nature! As a podcast host, reiki practitioner and psychic medium, she embodies a busy life. She's trying to slow it down just like all of us though. Mikki opens up about how long it took for her to trust that the intuition she was receiving was a psychic ability, and what that looks like living day to day.

It also resonated with me when she spoke about trusting your own intuition with what your body might need to be more present and healthier, how the small parts of life are the most important and how kids can help us slow down. I hope you take something from this episode, and I'd love to know what you think! Get in touch on Instagram.

Today's guest goes by many names including Amanda and Nonna, but we settled on Mandy for majority of the chat. Mandy and I worked together in radio a few years back and she has gone on to host her own podcast "Setting The Brow Low". I was honestly quite surprised when discovering a different side to Mandy and found it really resonated with the theme of the podcast.

I really enjoyed Mandy’s analogy about rewiring your brain, how she's committed to being kind to herself and just starting self-care and meditation without the expectation of completion which takes the pressure off. I also loved her honesty around the fears of motherhood and hearing her own positive experience through committing to practises.

Kaylee Bell is incredibly ambitious but also SO grounded. She's gone from Waimate to Nashville, and it's been a long journey that is starting to really bear fruit for her and her music career. Touring life isn't easy though, and although it's not as rock and roll as it used to be, it's still important to look after yourself.

Kaylee spoke about the role manifestation has played in her success, and her connection to the universe. Kaylee has been on a health journey for a while now and found out this year that she's expecting her first child with her partner Nick.

I'm so excited to have entrepreneur, influencer, and podcaster Steph Claire Smith join me this week. Steph is such a busy person and things are about to get busier with a second child on the way so we dive into how her second pregnancy has been and what maternity leave will roughly look like for her.

Steph speaks about how running a business, being a mum and having so many people rely on her takes its toll. We talk about the role of therapy and what techniques she uses to help with her self-confidence. The most powerful thing I took away was the role of assumptions in our mental health, how they fuel anxiety and how we're so much better off without them!
