A new year and a new season of the show!

I could NOT be more excited to kick off our new season with none other than bestselling author, women’s empowerment coach, and host of the hit podcast ‘Cara says it all,’ Cara Alwill. This incredibly inspiring conversation was such a full-circle moment for me after first being introduced to Cara’s work while navigating one of the most challenging times of my life, and being so impacted by her message of self-reinvention that I wound up diving into the personal development world for the first time, and ultimately ended up creating this podcast.

In this episode Cara shares her journey from feeling stuck in an unfulfilling corporate job to building an empire and a movement that empowers women all over the world to choose themselves. She opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped her—including heartbreak, career changes, and personal reinvention—and how she finally learned to trust herself above all else. If you’re feeling ready for a fresh start, this episode is all the reminder you need that YOU get to change the plot of your story - anytime.

“You don’t need to wait for everything to fall apart to change direction.” – Cara Alwill

What we cover in this episode:

* The power of choosing yourself and embracing reinvention - regardless of what life stage you’re at

* How to recognise when it’s time for a pivot (and actually take the action)

* How to recognise and let go of the beliefs that are holding us back

* Navigating resistance - how to know when we’re resisting because of fear, or because it’s genuinely not the right path

* The power of making decisions as ‘the woman you want to be’

* Navigating people pleasing as busy women and how to finally get to a place where we can prioritise ourselves without guilt

* The importance of disconnecting from the online world so that we can learn to hear our own voice

* The mindset shifts that help turn setbacks into comebacks

* Knowing when it’s time to walk away

And SO much more..this episode is truly not to be missed.

Until next time X

PSA: Your toxic traits aren’t that toxic

In this episode I’m getting into why it’s so important that we remember the difference between working on being the best version of ourselves, and trying to CHANGE all of the things that make us, US. If you’re overwhelmed and tired of the personal development and coaching industries making you feel like every single trait that makes up your entire personality is something that needs to be ‘healed’ from - then this is the episode for you!

(There is SO much goodness packed into this episode it was literally impossible to think of a title that does it justice.)

In what’s been one of my favourite episodes to record so far, I’m talking to licensed therapist, couples counselor and relationship coach, Lauren Walsh. Through Lauren’s extensive career in mental health and her own private practice, she helps women heal from past relationship trauma so that they can choose healthier love and become the highest version of themselves.

So whether you’re trying (successfully or unsuccessfully) to navigate the dating world, you’re in a relationship, you’re married, or you just want to build a stronger relationship with yourself - there will be something in this conversation for you!

TOPICS WE COVER:

-Fear of being single - how we can start to shift our mindset around being single so that we can avoid making fear-based decisions that won’t make us happy long term

-Self-love: How to overcome the feeling of being ‘lost’ when we aren’t in a relationship and build a solid foundation in ourselves so that we never feel pressure to settle for a situation that isn’t right

-Getting to know YOU, the first steps of building a relationship with yourself when you have no idea where to start!

-Dating after heartbreak - how to balance self-protection with still allowing ourselves to be vulnerable and open to finding love again after heartbreak

-When to stay and when to go - knowing when you’re ‘settling’ versus making healthy compromises in a relationship

What are you risking by NOT chasing the life you truly want?

Is certain unhappiness, better than uncertainty? We’re conditioned to think that familiar is better, safer, that even if it’s not actually making us happy it’s still better than the unknown, better than uncertainty - but is it? In this episode I’m offering a mindset shift on why the biggest risk in life isn’t taking the bet on yourself and following your dreams… the risk is what happens if you don’t…

What does ‘fulfilment’ look like when we’re not chasing the traditional milestones? When we’re not interested in the timelines and the conventional ‘successes’ that we’ve been so conditioned to believe equal happiness?

In this episode, I’m talking to Lyndsey Jane Gordon, writer, and creator of ‘The Other Way’ blog and podcast series, who, despite having an incredibly successful life ‘on paper’ walked away from a high-flying finance career with a salary and a glamorous expat lifestyle in Singapore to match.

This is Lindsey’s story of trusting the niggle when you KNOW you want more, giving YOURSELF permission to explore and create your own path…and starting over from your childhood bedroom to build a community of thousands who are choosing to live life ‘the other way.’

If you’ve ever wondered if it’s ok to make different choices, to take a different path - you’re not on your own and this is the episode for you.

TOPICS WE COVER:

-Why fear of judgment is still the number one thing that stops us from making changes and how we can start to work through our fears and beliefs to create a life that’s in alignment with what we truly value

-How to tune into your own guidance and hear your own voice in the noise of other people's opinions

-How to deal with the external pressure of the timelines and conventional milestones while creating a life that feels authentic to YOU

-Navigating dating and dealing with stereotypes as a woman who is child-free by choice

-What ‘fulfilment’ and having a full life look like when you’re not chasing the traditional milestones

-Practical steps on how we can start to create change and move in the direction of the life we want to live, even when it feels like we don’t have options

And so much more…

Until next time X
