How do you celebrate & reflect

28m 44s

What have you done, experienced, changed or overcome in the past year that deserves to be celebrated?

In this special birthday episode, I’m sharing 39 things I’m celebrating at 39. Some are big, tangible milestones, including publishing A Life of Magic, buying Retreat Me Happy, reaching 80 countries and preparing to move my family to India. Others are quieter achievements, like holding my boundaries, letting go of relationships that no longer serve me, returning to morning walks and becoming more comfortable with who I am.

I also reflect on the passing of the incomparable Dolly Parton and the lessons she...

I bought a business.

Actually, I bought it almost a year ago …and today I can finally tell you about it.

Meet Retreat Me Happy, a global retreat discovery and industry platform bringing together retreat guests, hosts, venues and suppliers.

In this very spontaneous (and very fast!) episode, I'm sharing the story of how Retreat Me Happy came into my world, why I knew almost immediately that I wanted to buy it, and why I then spent nearly a year quietly holding the business before I was ready to bring it properly to life.

I talk about becoming the custodian...

Have you ever wondered why certain things come naturally to you, why you keep repeating the same patterns, or why some seasons of life feel completely out of alignment?

In this episode, I'm joined by soul alignment coach and professional astrologer **Anne Marie Grace** for a fascinating conversation about astrology, Human Design, Gene Keys and the power of understanding your unique blueprint.

Sometimes life can get in the way, even when you're planning a big dream.

In this episode, I'm sharing a real-life update on what has been happening behind the scenes. From battling the Australian winter cold, juggling school holidays and family logistics, to planning our next big move, this is an honest look at what creating a life you love actually looks like.

I also share a concept that completely shifted my perspective: **active joy**. Instead of waiting until you've achieved the goal, earned the money or reached the destination, how can you intentionally create moments of joy today?

LinkedIn doesn't have to feel awkward, salesy or overwhelming.

In this episode, I'm joined by my LinkedIn coach (and friend), Kate Merryweather, to talk about what actually works on LinkedIn in 2026.

Kate shares how she went from freelance copywriter to one of Australia's leading LinkedIn coaches, why generosity is one of the best marketing strategies, and how showing up consistently can completely change your business.

I'm scared - and how I'm working with it

I'm scared - and how I'm working with it

19m 41s

Lately, I've been scared.

Not scared of the world. Not scared of taking risks. Not even scared of hard work.

I've been scared of hearing "no."

After a season of pushing, advocating, creating and putting myself out there, I realised my heart was feeling a little tender. And when we're carrying disappointment, rejection or exhaustion, even simple asks can start to feel overwhelming.

In this episode, I share what I've been noticing in myself, the fear of asking, why I was retreating instead of reaching out, and the mindset shifts helping me move forward.

I also talk about the concept...

Who am I now? And what do I actually want to be known for?

Existential crisis incoming!

Jokes! But I am sharing from a place of processing and letting you in behind the scenes as I'm in transition. And I hope, if you're in the same messy middle - this finds you and you feel very, very seen (or heard, it's a podcast after all!)

I’m sharing the identity shift I’ve been moving through, from calling myself a coach to embracing the word consultant, and why that change feels deeply aligned with the work I’m doing today.
