And this episode, I wanted to discuss how being alone can actually lead to loving yourself. Being alone gives you a chance to really reflect on your past experiences as far as learning from them, growing, elevating, evolving, immuring From the experiences that you went through, and also healing from those past negative situations that you went through. Being alone gives you a chance to see what you can do on your own without anybody’s help. Being alone gives you the chance to be one with the higher power in building a relationship with the higher power. It gives you a chance to see things for what they are based upon what you research, and discover about different situations on your own. You’re able to do the things you want to do without no one telling you that you can’t as far as the people who don’t support you. No one else is impacted or affected by what you do As far as the consequences, repercussions, and karma to your actions, behavior based upon the choices and decisions that you make

Ever find yourself stuck in a loop of excuses, wondering why nothing changes? I’ve been there too, and let me tell you, nothing shifts until you take that first step! 💥 I used to get caught up in thinking about what I couldn’t do or why I hadn’t started yet. But here’s the truth: it doesn’t matter where you start, just start somewhere. Even something as simple as cleaning out my messy closet in a way that makes it neat and easy to find everything when I need it. I watched just one episode of Marie Kondo (she’s amazing, have you seen it?) and I started working on it for a week, doing a little bit each time. Every small action you take gets you closer to your goals🌟 Now, opening my closet feels like such a relief! Do it right once, and it saves you so much time later. And I've been so happy ever since! Believe me, excuses like “I don’t know where to start,” “I’m not sure what I want,” or “I don’t have time” are just ways to delay progress. I’ve used them all, but I learned that real change comes from taking action. If you want something badly enough, you’ll find a way to make it happen, even if it’s a bit scary. So, what’s holding you back from starting your journey toward your dreams? Everything you want is within reach if you choose to act. Ready to stop making excuses and start making progress? Drop a comment and let me know how you’re planning to take action! 🥰

Ever pondered how you react when life throws a curveball your way? We had a profound conversation with Michelle Goth on 'How I Escaped Prison' about resilience, emotional intelligence, and navigating life's challenges. Michelle shared a piece of wisdom that might challenge your perspective: 'The willingness to see where you are in that moment without judgment can be tough, but it's transformational. If you desire something, you have to embody that behavior for others. You can't alter someone else's actions. It's not about escaping or running away, because wherever you go, there you are, same issues, just a different scenery. The only one you can genuinely change is yourself. And sometimes, that means taking action, other times, it means sitting down and letting the tears flow.' Her words made us pause and think about the way we handle our emotions and how we react to adversity. It's not about the external factors but our internal response to them. It's about acknowledging our feelings, embracing them, and using them as stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks. Are you willing to see where you are without judgment? Are you ready to take responsibility for your reactions and responses? It's a challenging path but one that promises freedom and ease. Listen to the full episode of 'How I Escaped Prison' and let Michelle Goth's insights guide you towards a life of resilience and emotional intelligence.

We’re always updating the operating systems on our devices, but do we ever think about updating the “operating system” we use to live our lives? The truth is, a lot of people end up living with their “default” setting; doing things not because it’s what they want, but because it’s what they think they’re “supposed” to be doing based on what they’ve seen in their past. That’s why in episode 26, I sit down with Kate Wendell from FamilyOS. Kate and her husband Tanner Wendell work with couples to help them update their “family operating systems” so they can live a more peaceful, successful life. In this conversation, Kate shares: ✅What is a “family operating system” and why is it essential to having healthy relationships with your partner and child? ✅The “CODE” for creating a peaceful, thriving family (that Kate and Tanner teach couples they coach). ✅Why the mindset of “the kids always come first” can do more harm than good; plus the counterintuitive way of thinking that ends up helping kids more in the long run. ✅How your past impacts the way you parent and interact with your partner (plus some personal struggles Kate and Tanner have worked through). ✅Why having a “system” focused on long-term goals can help your family feel safe and secure.

“Maybe I don’t understand what you are, but you have a soul. And I believe in your love for our family.” No, this isn’t a political statement. It’s a line from the latest Outlander episode, my ultimate guilty pleasure and a much-needed disconnect. It struck a deep chord with me. It touched me because it reflects exactly what I wish to see more of in our world, starting with the closest relationships—family, friends—and expanding to wider circles and society as a whole. Connection beyond differences of opinion. The power to believe in and support different things while seeing that, at our core, we are driven by the same motivations. It made me think about my ideal world: 🌍 In my ideal world, people can sit together without jumping at each other’s throats if they see things differently. 🌍 In my ideal world, I can say, “I’m scared,” instead of reacting with attacks or insults at the effect of that fear. 🌍 In my ideal world, I can say, “I’m angry,” without accusing, criticizing, losing my temper, or blaming others. 🌍 In my ideal world, I can turn my anger into fuel to act in alignment with my values and do what’s necessary—where I can, and where it’s up to me to make a difference. 🌍 In my ideal world, I can listen to someone fully, and they can do the same for me. We listen to understand, not to combat each other. 🌍 In my ideal world, I have the courage to acknowledge my blind spots and ignorance, and I’m willing to do the work to grow a little more aware. 🌍 In my ideal world, I don’t feel threatened when someone thinks differently than I do. Today, I’m grateful that, in my small bubble, I get to live fragments of this ideal world. But I’m also sad because it’s the very act of staying in my little bubble that contributes to how things are today. Let’s bring a bit of clarity and awareness into our lives—one step at a time. 💭✨

Please take a seat. My Mindfield is here to have the conversations that no one really wants to have in person, but has them about 1000 times a day in their own head, which seems to be more common than what we actually all like to admit, that’s right we’re all doing it. We’re here doing this because all too often we feel we either couldn’t or wouldn’t have them. I’ve realised the importance to myself and those around me that whilst they can be uncomfortable they actually lead to a much more comfortable place in my own skin.    From our initial relationships with our parents and siblings through to the relationships we have with our friends and our partners and even those in the work place. Looking at how we operate in todays society and importantly how fundamentally we actual all want a similar outcome yet we allow our emotions, feelings and ego to sabotage those very simple aspects, that actually make life worth living, or the life we want to live. I’m keen to explore everything relationship based and want to delve into a belief I have, in that life doesn’t have to be hard as it currently is. By that I mean that if we actually focused on living rather than allowing our expectations to occasionally limit our actual expercience, we may accept things as they are, rather than how we perceive how we’d like them to be. In the first two seasons I’ll be looking at the relationships we have as adults and how that landscape is changing, and how it changed dramatically for both myself and my guests. The first full episode will be released next week. https://lnkd.in/gM5b9x-n https://lnkd.in/gbhMJQDy https://lnkd.in/ghKYUCh3 https://lnkd.in/gsiQyRA9

Most people ignore these 3 questions when making a decision. Listening to the The Diary Of A CEO episode that had Dr. Layne Norton as Steven Bartlett guest, I was struck by a phrase that was used multiple times. “There are no solutions. Only trade-offs.” This was repeated by Dr. Norton a few times in the episode. I knew intuitively that it made sense but I didn’t know why or exactly what it meant. Until I read an article where the person who first used the phrase explained its meaning. Thomas Sowell is one of those few people who has made a mark in more than one field. In addition to being an economist, he is the author of “Late-Talking Children”. The book was born of his experience as a father whose son didn’t start talking until the age of four. Thomas Sowell disagrees with the idea of perfect solutions & presents they exist as utopian fantasies If a perfect solution seems to exist, it is only because these 3 questions have not been asked. 1️⃣ Compared to what? 2️⃣ At what cost? 3️⃣ What hard evidence do you have? I don’t have to be pursuing a perfect solution to be able to use this in my daily life. Even decisions that appear so obvious that they seem to make themselves contain these 3 questions. It’s just that we have answered them subconsciously & understood the trade-offs to be acceptable. Here’s the bit that struck me the hardest. We answer these questions daily & most of the times we don’t even realise it. What would we do differently if we were more mindful of these questions on just some of those occasions.

Ever feel like Monica Geller? Last weekend, a client told me she was stressing over every dish in her meal plan—so much she couldn’t get herself to start prepping. Remember the Thanksgiving Flashback episode, with Monica's giant turkey? That scene popped into my head immediately. This is classic 𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀: When we trick ourselves into feeling productive, but really making zero progress. We do it at work, at home, with friends... honestly, the more we think about it, the harder it gets to move on. Do these situations sound familiar? ▪️ Feeling stuck over endless options, unable to make a final call. ▪️ Worrying about the million ways things could go wrong. ▪️ Exhausted by decisions that should be very simple. Let's stop these what ifs. Try these 3 habits to break this cycle: ⇢ Set a hard deadline for making the call. When the time’s up, trust your gut and just go for it. ⇢ Ask, “What would my best friend do?” If it’s good enough for her, it’s probably good enough for you. ⇢ Limit your research. 5 trusted sources beat 5 hours of random scrolling online. No worries isn't just a phrase—it's good advice. Save your thinking for things that matter.
