Join me for a very casual check-in as we chat about Easter and balancing work and home life during school holidays. We also discuss how to recalibrate our goals - both financially and personally - as we transition from Q1 into Q2. As you reflect on Q1, what do you need to Start - Stop - or Continue doing as we step into the next 90 days, and the last quarter before the end of the financial year? It's a candid conversation about what's working, what to tweak (and not burn down), and how to step into the coming months with clarity and purpose.

Sam Dhu is a Psychotherapist & Facilitator of Permission, a Mum to two young girls, and passionate advocate for being radically kind and compassionate to yourself. As a highly sensitive person Sam believes it is possible to be deeply ambitious and successful, AND soft and sensitive at the same time. In fact, she identifies as holding both identities herself. Terms like ‘self-compassion’ and ‘self-acceptance’ get used a lot these days. But through her degree in social work, post-graduate qualifications, training in cognitive behavioural therapy, family therapy, gestalt therapy, and decades as a practising therapist and coach, Sam knows these inner resources are the difference between women being stuck in survival mode and confidently thriving. In this conversation, Sam and I discussed: You can find Sam over on Instagram, and running the Slow Mastermind with business coach Jess Miller. Sam also runs an annual program called Permission Granted, and you can listen to her Permission To podcast.

Are you a chronic overthinker when it comes to making decisions? If so, you're not alone. I wanted to share some insights into some conversations we've been having at home lately, as well as with my clients. In this short solo episode, I chat about the common struggle of overthinking decisions and making the same decision repetitively and the toll it takes on our mental energy. From addressing open loops in our minds to reframing decisions as experiments, I offer practical advice to reclaim mental clarity and make intentional choices.

For Estee Lee, not being resilient has never been an option. Since her family was in a devastating motor vehicle accident when she was five, Tae has had to overcome life changing setbacks and obstacles which have become pieces of the puzzle and made her life what it is today.

Welcome to episode 111 of The Light Seekers Lounge podcast! Today, we're kicking off season six with a deep dive into choosing a word of the year.

Money can hold so much shame, discomfort and embarrassment for many of us. Which is interesting. At the end of the day, money is simply an object like a coin or a dollar bill or numbers on a screen. It’s information. But the meaning that we attribute to that money can be SO loaded, can’t it? We all think about money in different ways, have different beliefs, attitudes and feelings towards money, we have different narratives around money and this is often referred to as our ‘money stories.’ Our money stories can be playing out from our subconscious mind and influencing our decisions without us even realising what they are. How are your money stories playing out in your life? Have a listen to this episode where I share examples of where your money stories might be driving your financial decisions.

Welcome to Episode #100! 🥳 It's been a while since my husband, Ben Love, was on the podcast, so I invited him back to celebrate our 100th episode of The Light Seekers' Lounge. A lot has changed for us as a family (and the world!) since we last recorded an episode together (episode #4, back in May 2020). We have celebrated a number of milestones this year, but celebrating the exciting, shiny moments doesn't mean there isn't also hard stuff that happens alongside it - so we had a real, raw and honest conversation around how we hold that duality of life and the lessons we've learned over the past few years. In this conversation, Ben and I discuss: Episode #4“If I love us, I have to want us to evolve more than I want us to stay comfortable.” - Chani app Also mentioned in this episode: The Untethered Soul, by Michael A Singer I'd love you to join The Light Seekers' Lounge Facebook group and continue the conversation!

I'm a big believer in the power of having beautiful brand photos created, especially as a business owner.

Do you know what your core values are? Understanding our core values, and living in alignment with them, can be so powerful. When we know what's truly important to us, it can help us make decisions, give us more self-trust and confidence, mean that it's easier to plan for the future, as well as giving us a sense of peace and wellbeing. Where do our core values come from? What are the benefits of knowing our own values? Are they permanent? Find out the answers to all these questions and more in Episode 98. “Values are like fingerprints.
