**Trigger warning: I talk about the death of my pet**

This episode is named with all the loving kindness there is because these are MY excuses!

I've been meditating FOR YEARS and have recently taken extra training so I can teach it even better.

AND YET, we all have the same excuses as to why we don't do these things.

Even though Meditating is one of the easiest, cheapest and most incredible mental health tools there are.

Here to get us all out of our own ways I give you 5 excuses that just really don't wash.

In the episode I talk about:

Hot off the back of a super, grown up and mature birthday party for my youngest, where both parents AND our new partners were present, co-parenting has been very much on my mind, so for what it's worth, here are my thoughts on the matter!

I talk about why I don't like the term narcissist.

And share my boundaries that helped me keep communication alive during a high conflict divorce and why it was so important to me.

I also share the exact words I was using every morning to manifest the best outcome of the divorce for my children. It kept me focused during the court battles on what was important and helped me keep check of my motivations for everything (i.e. for them and not for spite!).

you can read all my boundaries and survival tools for divorce in my new book How to Divorce Sober, available in audio, ebook and print here. If you'd like a signed copy, head here!

Katie and I are talking about the fact we bought our own houses for the first time after our relationship break ups. We talk about the positives and negatives of this huge, grown up step and share our 3 essential tips for doing it successfully - 1 of which is very unlike me!!

Show notes...

I refer to a Brene Brown book which I completely forgot the name of... it was DARING GREATLY. Lol, as if I forgot.

We also discuss moon cups at great length and would love your feedback on how you get on with them and any suggestions for Katie!

The house discussion starts around 14 mins in as we have a lot to catch up :)
