Living In A Rural Town vs On The Farm 23:29

6d ago23:29

23:29

This episode is inspired by our family's significant move from our beloved farm near Moonie to the lively border town of Goondiwindi, and my reflections on living in a rural town compared to life on the farm. After spending decades mainly on the land and out of town, this transition brought its share of revelations, and I'm eager to share the highs…

Your Label, Your Role: In Or Out of Family Farming 18:48

21d ago18:48

18:48

In this episode I’m talking about a topic that I know many of my rural and regional listeners who are involved in farming businesses will resonate with. That said, I think there's a good message in here for everyone as we discuss the labels we put on ourselves and finding our place in the stage of life we’re in. In this conversation, I’ll explore t…

Knowing Your Mental Health Red Flags 20:47

1M ago20:47

20:47

We talk a lot about mental health these days which I’m so grateful for. It’s brilliant that we as a society are more aware of this topic and it’s no longer taboo to talk openly about things like anxiety and depression. While I believe these conversations are extremely valuable, we often place the focus on mental illness as opposed to mental health …

Your Level Of Uncomfortable Matters 18:00

2M ago18:00

18:00

Moving away from the familiar is generally very uncomfortable. As someone who has experienced a lifetime of perfectionism and people pleasing, I know just how hard it is to let go of control and branch out into something beyond my comfort zone. But what if discomfort is actually the best thing for us? At the time of recording this, I found myself r…

Let's Talk About The Midlife Unraveling 20:20

2M ago20:20

20:20

I’ve been feeling different in the past few years. There has been one internal shift, big question and hard decision after another to contend with. I’m thinking more deeply about what I want to do with my life, and who I want to surround myself with. I’m referring to the midlife unravelling. Notice how I specifically didn’t use the term 'midlife cr…

Letting Go: Tips to Release What Holds You Back 15:45

3M ago15:45

15:45

Sometimes, we prefer to stay in our suffering. The pain we’re familiar with can be a lot less scary than the unknown - which potentially comes with rejection, failure or even success (yes, that can be scary too!) This could be relationships, habits, friendships, old beliefs… and sometimes they’re paralysing to let go of, even when we know in our he…

How to Make Time for Creativity 23:50

3M ago23:50

23:50

A lot of us would never call ourselves creative. We think that if we can’t paint, write or draw, then we’re definitely not creative. That was me for many years. At a young age, I decided that because I was the academic one in the family and not good at art like my sister, I wasn’t and never would be creative. Thankfully, I no longer believe this li…

My Experience With Antidepressants 21:25

4M ago21:25

21:25

Life comes with its fair share of ups and downs, but there are moments when the downs can feel overwhelming - insurmountable even.

However, in 2022, I got to my lowest point with it, even experiencing symptoms…

Daring To Set Boundaries 25:15

25:15

Do you ever feel like a doormat? You spend all day pouring out love, time and energy into meeting everyone else’s needs and by the end of the day, you feel like you’ve been walked all over. Your needs go unnoticed. Your needs don’t matter. It’s no wonder so many of us struggle with feelings of resentment and anger. A lot of the time, it all comes d…

How And Why I Gave Up Wine O'Clock 20:04

4M ago20:04

20:04

I’m tackling a bit of a sensitive topic today and if you’re currently relying on that nightly glass (or two) of wine to unwind after a long, stressful day, it may even hit a raw nerve to hear me talk about why, and how, I gave up wine o’clock. In Australia, we have such an alcohol fueled culture, which makes it harder to recognise the dangers of wi…

Motherhood and Identity 17:52

5M ago17:52

17:52

Motherhood is a profound experience that brings about countless changes. For many women, it comes with a huge identity shift, sometimes even an identity crisis. Before having children, you might have felt like a confident, capable individual with a strong sense of self - but the transition into motherhood can come as quite a shock. A lot of women f…

Why Your Words Matter + Motherhood Affirmations 17:42

17:42

Words are not just sounds; they are vibrations that shape our entire world. Believe it or not, the stories you tell yourself are ruling your life and these stories can either empower you or hold you back. The choice is completely up to you. We all have those repetitive stories - the ones embedded in our minds from past experiences, conditioning, an…

Your Two Most Powerful Words 12:49

12:49

“I am” Have you ever thought about the power and potency of these words? What we impress on our subconscious mind is what comes to reality for us. The power that words hold for us can easily be overlooked or thrown to the side, and in the last 18 months I have become aware that since I was a teenager I have been managing a tendency towards anxiety …

The Art of Trying. In this context, trying is the colloquial term used to describe the process of deliberately timing intercourse to coincide with ovulation for the purpose of creating an embryo.
