199. The struggles of job hunting in our 20s

Our mother wounds represent the unprocessed trauma and insecurities we pick up from the dynamic we each have with the women who raise us and shape us. In today's episode we break down the psychology of our mother wounds including their origin, their impact and their manifestation, from our body confidence to our competition with other women, our ability to trust and connect, our fear of disapproval and chronic people pleasing. 
We also explore ways to heal this wound, both in collaboration with our mother and on our own. Listen now for more!

198. The psychology of ‘mommy issues’ and mother wounds

We often think the secret to not being passive in our lives is to fill up our days, set countless goals, always be striving for progress and productivity. What if we told you the secret was slowing down? In today's episode I am joined by Caroline and Ann Catherine from Girls with Goals as we discuss: 

What it beens to be passive vs. active vs. intentional
How to create momentum 
Why big, long term goals aren't the secret to success 
How to develop a healthier relationship with yourself and your spare time

197. Stop being PASSIVE in your life ft. Girls with Goals

In today's episode we're going old school, back to a good old fashioned chatty sit down episode and life update. I have been recovering from a pretty terrible bout of tonsilitis and it's made me realise...I have a toxic relationship with productivity. Even when I'm sick I can't slow down, and I don't think I'm alone. 
We also discuss how I'm finding living alone, a little relationship update and how it feels to have finished my book! All that and more, listen now!
