Ep #78 - Summer mini-series - Stop the Scroll

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/08/19

Let’s get one thing straight: it’s not that you “don’t have time.” It’s that you're stuck in a cycle of over-scrolling, over-avoiding, and under-feeling. In this punchy, loving-but-direct episode, I’m calling it out and showing you exactly what’s really going on when you say you “don’t have time” for the stuff that actually matters to you. Because here’s the truth: your phone is not the boss of you. And scrolling isn’t a time filler—it’s an escape from feelings you’re avoiding. But you know w...

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/07/29

One of the tiniest words in the English language… and yet saying no feels bloody impossible sometimes. In this bite-sized episode of the summer mini-series, I’m inviting you to take on a life-changing challenge: Say no. Once a day. Every day. Just one small, deliberate, loving no.

In this episode, I’m inviting you to stop being such a bitch to yourself. Yep, I said it.

Ep #74 - Summer mini-series - Name Your Brain

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/07/16

In this first bite-sized episode of the Summer Mini-Series, I’m sharing one simple but powerful practice that can help you feel calmer, clearer, and more in control — even when your mind feels like it’s running the show. We’re talking about that loud, negative voice in your head — the one that spirals into worst-case scenarios, talks you out of trying new things, and tells you to eat the biscuits and do nothing. That’s your primal brain. And when you name it, everything starts to shift. In th...

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/07/08

You’d tell your best mate to slow down. You’d reassure her she’s not lazy, not selfish, and that taking a break is absolutely the right thing to do. But when it comes to giving yourself that same permission? Suddenly it feels like you’re failing. In this episode, I’m inviting you to flip the script. I’m sharing my own experience of taking a summer pause, why it matters more than ever now that my boys are teenagers, and how I’ve learned to make peace with imperfect breaks (yes, even the ones w...

The Working Womens Podcast ·

2025/06/17

In this beautiful and honest conversation, I sit down with psychotherapist Bonnie Grotjahn to explore the many shapes that grief and loss can take — far beyond bereavement.

2025/06/11

Welcome, welcome, welcome to this week’s episode, where I’m doing things a little differently… and giving you three loving truths to help you let go of what isn’t yours to carry. 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. You’ll learn how to listen to your thoughts without believing them and how to redirect your mind with compassion—not control. A powerful listen for anyone who's ever said, “I just c...

EP #66 - What Happens When You Choose to Heal at 79?

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...

Have you ever noticed how difficult it is to truly switch off, even when you finally have a moment to yourself? That constant whirring of your mind, the guilt that creeps in, the sudden urge to just check one more thing off your list? What I've discovered after years of coaching many people now is that this isn't simply a time management issue—it's actually neurobiological. Your brain and body have become addicted to the state of overwhelm. Drawing from fascinating research by Dr. Joe Dispen...

Feeling confused about whether you need a coach, counsellor, or mentor? You're not alone. The boundaries between these support systems often blur, leaving many wondering which path might best serve their growth journey. Counselling and therapy shine when addressing past events or current traumas. They operate on the premise that the event itself is the problem—a powerful framework when you're struggling with unprocessed experiences. In contrast, coaching approaches difficulties differently, ...

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. Most of us walk around with limiting "I am" statements like "I'm an overthinker" or "I'm always hotheaded," never questioning whether these are actually true or merely stories we've accepted. The fascinating revelation is that while we can't control the initial thoughts our conditioned brain pro...
