Ep 62: How To Stop Negative Self-Talk + Beating Yourself Up Nov 04, 2018

Show notes

Until very recently I was scared to be kind to myself. I was worried that if I didn't constantly talk down to myself and beat myself up, I'd achieve less and therefore be less. Even though being cruel to myself sucked, I thought it at least served a purpose. How wrong I was.

One of the most misunderstood things about negative self-talk is that it helps us achieve more. In fact, it's the opposite that's true. And in this episode, I'm sharing how to develop self-compassion AND achieve all your goals (and then some).

In this episode, I'm not just telling you to be kind to yourself because I know you *know* that. In this episode, I'm getting deep into the practical things that you can do to be a little bit kinder to yourself and what I do when I find myself wanting to beat myself up.

I hope you find this episode helpful!

Show notes

Interesting and unexpected things happen when you achieve your goals, and it makes for an interesting month.

I also share the things that have been making me happy and keeping me motivated, as well as what I've been working on behind the scenes. I hope you enjoy the episode!

Show notes

I haven't shared any law of attraction advice for a while so I thought I'd answer a few questions about how to use LOA to create results in your life.

In this episode, I'm sharing how I've been using LOA over the last few months to create success in my business as well as my advice on the most powerful thing you can do to manifest results and whether you can use an affirmation at the last minute to achieve a result.

Ep 59: Daring Greatly by Brené Brown: Lessons + Takeaways Oct 24, 2018

Show notes

If you've spent any time in the personal development world I'd be surprised if you hadn't heard of Brené Brown. She's a shame and vulnerability researcher known for her powerful Ted Talks (particularly this one), her best-selling books (like the one I talk about in this episode) and being adored by Oprah Winfrey (there's no better qualification than that).

I first read Daring Greatly by Brené Brown a couple of years ago and learned A LOT from it then, but when I found myself recommending the book to one of my readers I decided I'd read it too. And I'm so glad I did!

In this episode, I'm sharing the biggest lessons I learned from Daring Greatly and how I'm applying them to my life. If you're struggling with perfectionism, fear of failure or holding yourself back - this episode is for you! I hope you enjoy this episode and it inspires you to pick up a copy of the book.

If you've spent a little time in the self-help world, you've probably already heard of this one. But Brené Brown is a queen when it comes to shedding some much-needed light on shame – a feeling that most of us spend a lot of time carrying around but never talk about.

Ep 58: 5 Signs You're Scared Of Success Oct 17, 2018

Show notes

Fearing success is actually way more common than you'd think. And that's kinda crazy, right? Even though we're consciously working towards it, we unconsciously stop ourselves from getting it. It's no wonder we can feel so stuck.

In this podcast episode, I share why we experience fear of success and my personal struggles with it. I also talk about 5 of the signs that you're scared of success and what to do about it if you do!

Ep 57: 7 Differences Between High Achievers + Perfectionists Oct 14, 2018

Show notes

I often get asked whether overcoming perfectionism will make a person less successful. When I first started out on my personal development journey, I thought it was my perfectionistic traits that had created my success. I remember feeling worried that if I was kinder to myself and I didn't have crazy expectations, I wouldn't get as much done.

What I know for sure is that it was my perfectionism that was actually stopping my success, rather than helping it. Although I could perform well under pressure, it was super stressful, I burned myself out all the time and I needed a deadline to get anything done. Not to mention I was constantly in all-or-nothing mode, terrified of judgement and always holding myself back.

In this episode, I share 7 differences between perfectionists and high achievers so you'll feel willing to let go of perfectionism for good. I also give practical advice to help move you away from perfectionism and into being a high achiever. I hope you find it helpful!

Ep 56: How To Handle Uncertainty Oct 10, 2018

Show notes

No matter what you're trying to achieve in life, there will be an element of uncertainty. And even if you're not trying to achieve anything, there will still be uncertainty. It's completely unavoidable!

In this episode, I'm sharing practical advice and tips on how to handle uncertainty as well as the things that I personally do so that I can embrace uncertainty and make sure that I keep growing. I hope you find it helpful!

In this episode, I'm talking career changes, getting older and answering that good old question - when is it too late? I hope you find it helpful!
