Because here’s the thing: You are not responsible for everyone else’s emotions. Not your team’s, not your kids’, not your partner’s. But if you’re anything like most of the brilliant, big-hearted women I work with, you’re probably firefighting everyone else’s emotional fires—and it’s burning you out. In this e...

If you’re constantly chasing validation from your partner, your boss, your friends, or even your next holiday… this episode is for you. This week, I’m diving into the most important relationship you’ll ever have — the one with yourself. Because here’s the truth: emotional safety, confidence, clarity — they don’t come from the job, the money, or the people around you. They start with how you respond to you. Your emotions. Your inner voice. Your humanness. If your self-talk sounds more like a m...

2025/05/22

Taking time off shouldn’t feel like a panic attack waiting to happen—but for so many working mums, it does. In this episode, I share how my own brain spirals before holidays and how I gently (but firmly) coach myself out of it. If your brain freaks out whenever you try to slow down, this one's for you.

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/05/14

At what age do we become too old for personal transformation? According to Richard Hulley, a retired naval officer who began coaching at 79, that limit simply doesn't exist. Richard's journey begins unexpectedly through an NHS diabetes course that evolved into a profound exploration of his mind. Growing up in what he calls an "Edwardian upbringing" where emotions weren't discussed, Richard initially couldn't even identify his feelings when presented with lists of emotions. "I didn't know I h...

2025/04/23

Feeling confused about whether you need a coach, counsellor, or mentor? You're not alone.

Have you ever considered how powerful the words "I am" can be? Those two simple words, followed by whatever descriptor you've chosen, literally create the blueprint for your personality and behavior.
