How many times have you said “someday”?

Whether it’s launching a business, writing a book, going on that dream trip, or simply picking up a hobby again, we all have something waiting on the “someday” list.

In this solo episode, host Emma Lovell shares her most powerful piece of business (and life) advice: just start.

Emma opens up about how she began her first business at 22 while recovering from breaking her back, how retreats came to life through action (not perfection), and why booking the ticket, literal or figurative, is the only way to make your dreams real.

Self care to the max!

Because sometimes a bubble bath isn’t enough, here’s how to radically care for yourself when everything hits at once.

Life has a way of throwing everything at us all at once, from family challenges to business curveballs, unexpected travel disruptions, and personal health worries. In this honest episode, I'm sharing what it looks like to practice self-care to the max when life feels overwhelming.

Do you want to live a life of magic?
I know I do.

I'm writing a book - It's called, A Life of Magic.

I always thought my second book would be about retreats. But life had other plans. In this deeply personal episode, I share the story behind A Life of Magic, the memoir I’m writing with (and for) my 102-year-old cousin, Bill Hunter.

Bill’s life is truly extraordinary: a WWII Navy veteran, a professional magician for over 80 years, and a man who’s touched countless lives around the world. From performing at the Indy 500 for 50 years...

I always say expect the unexpected… and then the unexpected happened.

We had to change!

In this episode, I share how, after civil unrest broke out in Nepal, I had to move our retreat …. not just to a new venue

… but to a whole new country!

I talk about what was happening on the ground, my deep ties to Nepal, and the disappointment of shifting a retreat I’ve been dreaming about for years. I also take you behind the scenes of how we made this change — quickly, honestly, and with care for both my clients and my...

Work-life balance? Let’s be honest—it’s a myth that often leaves us feeling like we’re failing. In this episode of The Emma Lovell Show, I share why harmony is a healthier and more sustainable goal, and how I’ve found it through what I call the Bleisure Life: a blend of business, travel, and self-care.

- How travel can be more than a luxury—it’s self-care and inspiration.

Give from the overflow.

This one is a bit personal as I share the powerful philosophy that changed the way I approach business, life, and self-care: give from the overflow.

Inspired by wisdom from my kinesiologist, this episode is about why topping up your energy, finances, and joy beyond the bare minimum is essential before giving to others. This mindset not only prevents burnout, but also fosters a life of generosity, collaboration, and abundance — in both personal and professional spaces.

Whether you’re a business owner, a giver at heart, or someone who’s been running on empty, this episode will...

Is traveling with kids while running a business your worst nightmare—or your biggest dream? In this episode, I share what it's really like to travel the world with my four-year-old son and run a thriving business at the same time.
