What an amazing conversation this is! I absolutely loved talking with Galina about all the ways we are conditioned for Motherhood before we even become a Mother. Our default mode of operation is one that is passed on to us from all of the generations of females that have gone before us. And this is what we will revert to, unless we choose to interrupt that pattern.

What I notice is that when we are busy it's much easier to ignore what is going on in our body. We get into auto pilot mode, where we're just thinking about logistics and the next thing needing done. It's a good way to distract ourselves from those deep down feelings.

One of the important components of balance is being able to accept where we are right now AND also accept that we want to work towards a bigger goal.

When I first start working with clients we begin by figuring out what her goals are. And what I often find is that mums feel stuck where they are, and either don't know at all what they want, or can only access the short term goals - the ones that are a modification of where they already are.

As a working mum I see space, both physical and mental, as an essential need. I notice that when I don't get it I feel grumpy and snappy and irritable and I go into martyr mode. 

This week I am sharing all that I have learnt over the last 6 months of running my own business. I left a corporate job as a geophysicist after 12 years. The job had so many great benefits and ultimately gave me the foundation to do what I am doing now, but I was always looking for a deeper meaning.

I am recording this episode fresh off a one week campervan trip with my family. We had a fabulous week away where we experienced a brilliant selection of all of the highlights of the Scottish outdoors.

In this week's episode I am delighted to be chatting to Sam Bowley about how our fertility journey can really impact balance. Particularly if we face fertility challenges, trying to conceive can infiltrate every aspect of of life from work to relationships.

A super fun conversation with Helen McNutt of Mother of Copy. After a high flying career as a freelance copywriter for many exclusive brands including GQ, Guardian, and Cosmo Helen has embraced motherhood as a superpower and integrated it into her passion for copywriting. She now teaches other mums with small businesses how to write their own copy.

There is so much emphasis put on being productive. And as a working mum it can often feel like a necessity in order to get everything done.  Then when we're not in the flow of productivity, we can feel like we're failing.

I absolutely loved this conversation! Keri and I talk incredibly passionately about things that we both care deeply about: audacity, feminism and motherhood.

This episode is aimed at any fellow people pleasers who find it difficult to say no, or to express your true opinion.

This week I'm talking about the feeling of only knowing what you don't want, without being able to articulate what you do want, or even the way you feel just now.

In this episode I share my experience of being held back in business by juggling it all. Whilst on mat leave with my first son I worked on building up my growing artisan granola company. It started off being really fun with lots of creativity.

We all know that comparison is often very unhelpful and not something to seek out. Buthow often do you find yourself online lost in the instinctive spiral of all the reasons that you're not good enough? Not fun enough, clever enough, pretty enough?

How do feel about changing your mind? Is it something that instinctively feels uncomfortable? If so, you are not alone!

This week I am fresh from a week of holiday and I'm talking about how you know whether you actually need a break or whether you are procrastinating. I'm sure we've all been in the place where there's one or many things hanging around undone on our to do list.

When I first came across the concept of money mindset I didn’t really pay much attention. It didn’t seem relevant to me because I didn’t think that I was motivated by money and I earned a comfortable, stable income.
