    2025/04/21

    What would it feel like to fully trust that I can’t ever get it wrong..?

    Morning, Muses…

    Welcome back to the ‘Monday Muse,’ my brand new mini, mini, podcast series!

    I know so many of us have mixed feelings going into a new week - or maybe you just straight up dread it - especially if you’re not where you want to be right now.

    I get it.

    So every Monday morning you’re now going to wake up to a little voice note, just from me to you. Think of it as a mini, mini podcast - or the voice note you get from your best friend that puts a smile on your face even on the shittiest of days.

    A 5-minute reminder, from me to you, of just how powerful you are. How capable you are. Of how much power you have to create change in your life.

    And to remind you that you’re not on your own, whatever this week throws at you.

    These episodes were previously only available as an exclusive for my e-mail subscribers but I loved recording them so much I wanted to publish them on the podcast too - make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss any!

    Thank you so much for being here…

  • 29: BECOMING HER. Identity shifts, surrendering old stories, and why we NEED to be getting uncomfortable
    2025/04/18

    “What do you do when you feel like you’ve outgrown the person you thought you were supposed to be?”

    In this episode I’m reflecting on some of my own experiences around identity shifts, talking about how we can start shedding old versions of ourselves, and what it actually looks like to follow your intuition when it leads you somewhere completely different than you’d planned.

    I’m also sharing the exciting evolution of Muse Yourself, what’s lighting me up right now, and why I’ve been making some big - uncomfortable - moves behind the scenes to fully step into this next phase. If you’ve been feeling ALL the discomfort in the messy middle of your reinvention season, this episode is for you!

    TOPICS WE’RE COVERING:

    * What we do when we outgrow the version of ourselves we thought we wanted to be

    * Navigating discomfort, uncertainty, and massive growth

    * Surrendering old stories so we can hear where we’re being guided next

    * Trusting our OWN intuition

    * How I’m learning to show up differently this year and why we need to INVEST in our future selves

    This episode is really an invitation to get honest with ourselves and ask:

    * What old identities are we still clinging to?

    * What if this is the season that could change everything?

    Come reflect with me—and if it resonates, I’d love to hear what’s coming up for you. You can always find me over on Substack, where I share more behind the scenes, bonus episodes, and musings I don’t post anywhere else.

    Until next time X

  • Resilience, reinvention, and reclaiming your power. Why your past DOESN’T define you…with writer, Megan Lee.
    2025/03/20

    In this incredibly raw and empowering conversation, I’m talking to writer and creator of the Shame Sandwich newsletter Megan Lee. Megan’s resilience is truly on another level and it’s an honour to share her story, which is one of survival, hope, and sheer determination. From surviving an oppressive religious upbringing, an abusive marriage, a cancer diagnosis at 23, and becoming a single mother, to building the courage to leave, rebuild, and re-define her life on her own terms, Megan is an absolute force and this conversation isn’t one to be missed.

    We talk about the nature of shame, how it seeps into our identities in ways we don’t even realise, and how to finally free ourselves from it. If you've ever felt like your circumstances were bigger than you—like you were stuck, silenced, or forced into a version of life that wasn’t your own—this episode is a must-listen.

    TOPICS WE COVER:

    * How Megan broke free from a deeply religious “cult-adjacent” upbringing designed to keep women small

    * The shame and fear that comes with being in an abusive marriage and what finally gave her the courage to leave

    * Navigating single motherhood and battling cancer

    * The pivotal moment after her divorce when she knew this wouldn’t be the end of her story

    * Why shame keeps us stuck and how to begin unlearning it (especially when it’s been ingrained in us since childhood)

    * The unexpected way humour can be a tool for healing

    * The hardest beliefs to let go of when you’ve grown up feeling like you don’t deserve more

    * The power of sharing your story, even when it feels terrifying

    And SO much more…

    Until next time X

    PS: It would mean the absolute world to me if you would share this episode with one other person you think would love it!

  • THE MONDAY MUSE. Stop shrinking your dreams to accommodate someone else's fears...
    2025/03/17

    Morning, Muses…

    Welcome to the first ever ‘Monday Muse,’ my brand new mini, mini, podcast series!

    I know so many of us have mixed feelings going into a new week - or maybe you just straight up dread it - especially if you’re not where you want to be right now.

    I get it.

    So every Monday morning you’re now going to wake up to a little voice note, just from me to you. Think of it as a mini, mini version of the podcast… or the voice note you get from your best friend that puts a smile on your face even on the shittiest of days.

    A 5-minute reminder, from me to you, of just how powerful you are. How capable you are. Of how much power you have to create change in your life.

    And to remind you that you’re not on your own, whatever this week throws at you.

    Thank you so much for being here…

    *Reflection prompts from this week’s note:

    * Where have I been shrinking my dreams to accommodate someone else’s fears?

    * Where have I been making myself smaller to avoid judgement from someone else?

    * If I had an alter-ego who didn’t feel the need to do this, what would she be doing that I’m not currently doing? How does her life look different to mine?

  • Stop FORCING and honour your energy flow...Why pressing pause is the real power move
    2025/03/10

    What if pushing yourself harder wasn’t the answer? What if the moments where we feel like we’re ‘moving backwards’ are actually when we’re making our most powerful moves forward?

    In this episode I’m talking about why hitting pause can be the ultimate power move, how Human Design is quite literally changing my life, and catching you up on everything I’ve been working on behind the scenes - including a brand new weekly podcast series!

    Warning: this episode was fuelled by multiple espressos.

    Thank you so much for being in my world,
