Resolutions: Love them or loathe them we talked in this old episode about how best to make ones that stick. Susie's not a fan. I LOVE them, because they have transformed my life. Whichever camp you're in, you're right; do what suits you. Here's my process. 1: Write down what you achieved in 2023 and take time to appreciate it. 2: Create categories that are meaningful to you. Mine: Joy, Learning, Fitness and health. Then write in those categories what you would like to change or tweak. 3: Pick the ONE that feels most important right now then hone it down to a very specific action. eg 'I want to see my friends more' is whittled down to 'I will contact these people every Monday to find out who is free for a dog walk that week. I will set aside x night a week for a one hour drink with these friends and always turn up. 4: Put a reminder post-it note on your bathroom mirror by your toothbrush. 5: Only do this one thing until it's a habit then move to the next. 6: If you 'fail' you then know that it's either something you really didn't care about that much and you can strike it off your list or you weren't specific enough in how to execute it so you can tweak it. 7: Once it's a habit move to the next thing on your list. Treat it like a compass re-set to find your true North, not something to beat yourself up with. The beauty of this system is that it helps you to realise what things genuinely matter to you rather than everyone else. NB: Write your list somewhere that won't get lost or forgotten. I use a simple paperback that is slotted into a beautiful book cover which can hold the pen I use. Be the person you want to be, not the person others think you should be, and take time to appreciate all of your wins. #newyear #resolutions #success #happiness #joy #change #true #lists #parenting #teen #teens #tween #jobhunt https://lnkd.in/e4FGcXmJ

Transforming Workplace Culture & Well-Being | TEDx Speaker | Expert in Psychological Safety, Trauma-Informed Communication, Conflict Navigation, Leadership Development | Supporting ERGs | Training Trauma-Informed Coaches
In life’s most challenging moments, we often find ourselves doing everything we can—giving our all, sacrificing our autonomy, and hoping for the best. Yet, despite our efforts, outcomes can remain uncertain. Here’s where the power of surrender comes into play: 🌟 Surrender isn’t about giving up; it’s about letting go of the outcome while holding space for hope. 🌟 It’s about aligning your energy and intentions, creating a flow that supports possibility without clinging to control. 🌟 True surrender requires safety—a space where vulnerability is met with compassion and understanding. In those moments of waiting, remember: ✨ You are doing your best. ✨ It’s okay to hope. ✨ It’s okay to release the outcome. Find your safe space and lean into the process. Growth and grace often emerge in the spaces where control is released. Get to the root cause of infertility and the emotional resilience needed to face this journey with Dr. Erica Bove and me.

Founder & CEO, and Creator of Breakthrough to Bliss, the signature program to transform trauma into triumph by alchemizing pain into purpose/Alive & Awake Podcast/1:1 Coaching/Somatic Breathwork Facilitator
Change only happens in the present moment. 💥🙌 When you are in an empowered, aware state of mind, sustainable change is possible. When you are in a disempowered, unconscious state of mind, you repeat old outdated habits from your past. As Christine Mathieu, B.Msc. emphasizes archetypes always have a positive and negative side to them. What she has taught me, and thousands of students on her journey is: "Which part of you is making this decision?" "Are you calm, clear, and neutral?" Or... "Are you stressed, rushed, and fearful?" Because money takes on the energy you give it, you are either magnetizing what you desire, Or... Attracting more of what you don't. There is no other way around it. YOU are that powerful! YOU are the energetic! YOU are either the conscious creator of your life. Or... YOU are the unconscious victim of your life. Which would you rather be? Knowing your shadows (+) and (-) aspects of your money management is KEY to creating a secure financial future. Tune into this Episode 8 on the Alive & Awake Podcast to dive deeper into this discussion, and open your consciousness to what your ego doesn't want you to understand. 😉 Apple: https://lnkd.in/eMUcWbBr Spotify: https://lnkd.in/etJRnBQ3 YouTube: https://lnkd.in/eWbnxFVa Thank you Christine for an amazing interview and helping me get out of my victim story! #limitingbelief #unlimitedpotential #authenticallyyou #takechargeofyourlife #journeytoself #soulaligned #shadowworker #timetoheal #beyourtrueself #selfdiscoveryjourney #becomeyourbestself #ownyourpower #soulalignment #soulpath #createyourownreality #findingyourself #traumabonding #lovingyourself #livethelifeyouwant #youhavethepower #limitingbeliefs #moneyqueen #showupforyourself #radicalselflove #makingchanges #youreworthit #moneymakingmachine #traumahealing #innerwork #personalgrowth

“It’s the Hap-Happiest Season of All” Simultaneously, our Episode 6 guest floats the concept of "Happiness" as a belief system that he has opted out of. Sold to Americans as a sustainable state of being that we are broken in the absence of, and always one purchase away from achieving. The pursuit of Happiness is a cyclical setup. And as newer generations leap off the capitalism merry-go-round, isn’t it time to re-examine this endgame? If Happiness is not sustainable, what is the day-to-day norm we should be chasing? One thought is to replace the motivator of Happiness with more productive goals, allowing Happiness to arrive of its own accord as a result of these efforts. Or can we simply replace ideas of Happiness and its sugary dopamine rush with concepts like joy and serenity that embody less chaotic traits of impermanence? If the effects of Happiness are inherently transient... Do you want them fast and sweet or soft and lingering? I’m a sugar girl myself!! Listen to these queries and more in Episode 6 of Advice From Strangers! 🎧 Listen Now: https://lnkd.in/eNtxSk83 -📸 Follow Us: https://lnkd.in/eqPeiBQx

Productivity & Personal Development Coach| Helping Moms Set a Guilt-free Path to Me-Time, Self-Care, Productivity and Personal Growth.
This month, I’m dedicating my journey to my father, whose wisdom and love for surprises transformed my life. ❤️ His knack for teaching through unexpected moments added magic to both my personal and professional life. Even though he’s no longer with me, his lessons remind me every day that small surprises have the power to uplift and motivate us. Tune in to my podcast at 8 PM tonight. 🌟 In our busy lives, especially in families, we often get caught up in routines that can drain our energy. Surprises bring a refreshing change. 🌈✨ Imagine this: when someone unexpectedly makes your favorite dish or plans a family outing, the excitement boosts our mood instantly! It’s those little, joyful moments that break the monotony, making us feel valued and more connected to each other. Surprises in work have a similar effect—they can help us break out of the mundane, sparking creativity and increasing focus. This approach doesn’t just bring happiness but also makes us more productive. 🎉💪🏽 Tune in to my podcast at 8 PM tonight as I share more about how we can embrace small surprises to refresh our lives and increase productivity, just as my father taught me.
