In today's episode, I'm sharing a powerful technique that can help you break free from the doubts, fears, and worries that might be holding you back. It's something I've used myself and with clients to overcome those moments when you feel stuck, like you're not making progress toward your goals. You know those times when you're just not gaining momentum, no matter how hard you try? Or when the same negative thoughts keep looping in your mind? It's frustrating, right? Well, the good news is, there's a simple yet effective way to start untangling those thoughts and finding clarity. And the best part? You don't need a coach or therapist to get started—although, of course, it helps to have someone guide you through the process. In this episode, I'll explain how journaling can help you release the clutter in your mind and uncover the deeper issues that might be blocking your path. I'll share tips on how to get started with prewriting, gratitude journaling, and other techniques that can help you explore your thoughts and feelings. You'll discover how this simple act of putting pen to paper can give you a fresh perspective and help you see things more clearly. I'll also dive into the importance of acknowledging and shifting your identity—those deep-rooted beliefs about who you are and what you're capable of. When you start seeing yourself in a different light, it can have a ripple effect on every aspect of your life. Plus, I'll guide you through a powerful exercise that I use with clients to uncover the root thoughts that drive your actions and emotions. By the end of this episode, you'll have the tools to start your own journey of self-discovery and learn how to work through those moments when you feel stuck. Whether you're feeling anxious, frustrated, or just in need of a new perspective, this episode has something for you.

In this week's podcast episode, I delve into the concept of people-pleasing, a behaviour that's often overlooked but can have a significant impact on our lives. Drawing from my personal experiences and client sessions, I explore the subtle ways people-pleasing shows up and how it ties closely to our sense of identity. I discuss the spectrum of people-pleasing, ranging from occasional tendencies to a lifestyle where we constantly put others' needs ahead of our own. I examine the complex relationship between people-pleasing and being highly sensitive. If you're highly sensitive, you often empathise deeply with others' emotions, which can make you feel compelled to support and please them. This connection can lead to patterns of behaviour that are hard to break, especially if they're rooted in childhood experiences or societal pressures that encourage external validation. I also talk about avoiding conflict, a common trait among people-pleasers, and how it can lead to deeper issues like resentment and frustration. To illustrate these points, I share personal stories and insights, emphasising the importance of building internal validation and acknowledging our own needs. During this episode, I encourage you to consider where you fall on the people-pleasing scale and think about the impact it has on your life. My goal is to give you actionable insights and empower you to reclaim your own desires and priorities while still maintaining your compassionate and kind nature. Join me as I explore people-pleasing, its underlying causes, and how you can take steps to move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. I hope that by sharing my experiences and insights, you'll gain a deeper understanding of this behaviour and find ways to prioritise your own well-being.

Join me in this week's episode as I talk more about what I've been seeing in my sessions recently regarding anxiety. To protect my clients, I talk about this through my own experience with anxiety. I delve into the realisation that the anxiety and panic attacks I experienced for over 20 years were not originally mine but based on my sensitivities and my deep empathy for others. It took me years to unravel the tangled threads of anxiety and embrace a different path. And now, I'm here to offer a guiding hand to those who walk a similar path - to show you a different perspective that you may not have been introduced to before. So, if you're yearning to release the grip of anxiety and step into the light of empowerment, I invite you to join me on this journey. Tune in to listen as I share what was so true for myself and also for so many of my clients and how you can use this knowledge to permanently reduce anxiety in your life.

Come join me in today's episode as we dive into a topic that's close to my heart: mindfulness. I truly believe it's a game-changer, especially for us sensitive leaders navigating the complexities of life. Mindfulness is about being fully present in the moment, tuning into our senses, and approaching life with an open mind and curiosity. I've seen firsthand how mindfulness can work wonders, from reducing stress and anxiety to enhancing focus and clarity. As sensitive leaders, we face unique challenges. We're often more attuned to our environment, which can lead to feeling overwhelmed by the subtle cues around us. And let's not forget the emotional intensity and tendency towards perfectionism that comes with the territory. But here's the thing—our sensitivity is also our superpower. We're more empathic, intuitive, creative, and authentic. And mindfulness? It's like our secret weapon, helping us navigate challenges with grace and resilience. In today's episode, I'll share some personal stories and practical techniques to help you integrate mindfulness into your daily life. From simple grounding exercises to guided meditations, there's something for everyone. So, if you're ready to embark on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, join me in today's episode.
