This week's episode is a deep dive into self-worth. Obviously as a self-worth coach, I have a lot of thoughts on this topic! I've also experienced first hand the incredible impact being aware of your worthiness can have on your wellbeing. I start with an explanation of what self-worth actually is, how it impacts us … Continue reading Seedling Ep 2. Understanding self-worth and its impact
Every now and then, I’ll ask myself why I’m bothering with all this blogging and coaching malarky. There’s usually a trigger for this feeling. Maybe an instagram post will bomb, a newsletter triggers more unsubscribes than normal or I’ll just go through a period of time when it feels like I’m just shouting into a … Continue reading Are you making an impact?
Well, this is a bit of an ominous title isn’t it? It’s an idea that’s been niggling at the back of my mind for a while now. It started when I listened to an episode of Sara Tasker’s podcast Hashtag Authentic where she interviewed Farrah Storr, editor of Cosmopolitan magazine and author of the book … Continue reading The discomfort of success
Most of the time, I like to think I’m pretty good at recognising what makes me happy and joyful in life. I have certain activities that I know make me smile, but recently a sense of absolute pure joy crept up on me and caught me a little off-guard. In my day job I help … Continue reading Recognising (and following) joy
Recently I launched a new hashtag on Instagram, #worthyhumansunite with the aim of bringing people together to celebrate our worthiness. From this idea however, grew another one. I decided I wanted to take this community idea and put it somewhere I go to for connection and community these days - Facebook. So (drumroll please) I’ve … Continue reading Worthy Humans Unite
I added “so much” to the title of this because I’m always wary of making grand claims on this little blog of mine. I’m not going to sit here and say, “GUYS. Guys, I’ve figured it out. I know how you can stop people pleasing. And thankfully, it’s concise enough for me to explain in … Continue reading How to stop people pleasing (… so much)
Hands up if you’ve ever answered “I’m fine” or even “I’m good thanks” to the question “how are you?” and not meant it? I’m visualising lots of you raising your hands right now. It’s human nature. Small talk is just that - small. It can feel very difficult to take a deep breath and admit, … Continue reading Dropping the mask
There’s something about compliments isn’t there? Something uncomfortable. Something that makes many of us squirm a little and respond with a knee jerk reaction. We might reject the compliment outright, change the subject quickly or immediately return the compliment (something I do a lot). A couple of months ago I went to a talk by … Continue reading How to take a compliment
I mentioned this here recently, but there is such a back to school vibe this September. I don’t know if it’s always like this and I’ve never noticed before, or if it’s because I launched something new myself, but wow - there is some energy in this month. I think that energy is change… it’s calling … Continue reading Compassionate goal setting
A bit of a different post from me today as today is the day I launch my self-worth coaching services *happy dance*. While I’ve been physically working towards this goal for about a year, emotionally and mentally I’ve been working towards it for much longer. When I started blogging in 2008, I had no real … Continue reading Self-worth coaching launch
