Hey lovely Reader I've been thinking a lot recently about the distinctions between lack and abundant mindsets. And some of the challenges we can face when we seek to shift from one to the other. It's sparked the latest blog post, where I explore the powerful feelings behind these mindsets... Mindfully moving from lack to abundance When you hear words like 'lack' and 'scarcity', what do they prompt within you? Or how does the idea of 'abundance' feel? When we move beyond the words and sink a...

Hey lovely Reader This week’s episode wasn’t the one I’d planned. In fact I recorded something else first - and then realised it really wasn’t what I wanted to say, today. So I started again. What came through was a message I’ve been feeling in my bones lately. A reminder that inner work doesn’t have to feel heavy. That even the deep stuff - the tender, transformative work - can be held with a lighter touch. The Work Can Be Light (S17E2) Listen to the episode I share something I wrote that...

Hey lovely Reader You might have heard me hint at something new forming behind the scenes... and in this week’s podcast, the first in a brand new season, I’m opening the door a little wider. But! Before diving into that... I just want to acknowledge we've now published 173 episodes. Blimey! And I say 'we' even though it's strictly speaking 'me', because this feels like such a joint effort. There's no podcast without listeners, and all that. When I began the podcast nearly five-years ago, I...

Hey lovely Reader This week’s podcast touches on something many of us are grappling with right now - the discomfort and power of not knowing. It's a bonus episode as somehow we've whipped through Season 16 already. And rather than sharing it on a Sunday (as I would ordinarily do), this has become an exercise in uncertainty... art imitating life etc. Anyway. You'll hear me explore the idea of uncertainty as a fertile space, one where creativity, change and - perhaps surprisingly - healing can...

Hey lovely Reader I’ve been reflecting recently on how change shows up in our lives - not just the big, dramatic changes, but the quieter ones too. The shifts we don’t always name. The seasons that pass and leave us a little different. Sometimes change comes from the outside - loss, menopause, a move, a child growing up, a job ending. Sometimes it stirs from within - a feeling that something doesn’t quite fit anymore. That we’re ready to live a little more truthfully, a little more kindly, a...

Hey lovely Reader This week’s episode is a conversation with my friend Adam Lind - author, coach, speaker and wonderful human - and we dive deep into vulnerability. Not as a buzzword, but as a lived experience. Adam lives on a narrowboat and recently published a book that’s part life story, part invitation to pause and reflect. He speaks about loss - his father died when he was 17 - and how that catapulted him into a very different way of living and thinking. After meeting his wife at...

Hey lovely Reader This week’s podcast episode is a bit of a love letter to mornings. Not the leap-out-of-bed, power-hour, tick-it-all-off kind of morning. And definitely not the version where we hand ourselves over to everyone else before we've even opened our eyes. No. This is a paean to that liminal space between sleep and wakefulness. The drifting. The space that can feel a little like being held in a warm bath. It's a celebration of the moments before anything is asked of us - when the...

Hey lovely Reader This week’s episode is one of those conversations that I’ll be thinking about for a long time. I’m joined by Moe Carrick - TEDx speaker, author, and workplace culture expert - and we dive into some of the deep, often hidden stories we carry about what it means to be a ‘good’ parent, partner, worker… person. The Mothering Myth and the Courage to Be Enough – with Mo Carrick (S16E8) Listen to the episode Moe shares a beautiful, poignant story about a gingerbread house she made...

Hey lovely Reader So, we're diving straight into this one... Mother’s Day can feel complicated. While the world is full of cards and flowers, many of us are carrying something else - grief, distance, mixed emotions, or tender memories. In this week’s podcast episode, I’m exploring what's often left unsaid - and sharing a practice that can bring comfort when things feel challenging: writing an unsent letter of love. Whether your relationship with your mother is full of warmth, woven with...
