174: The Antidote to Comparison and Celebrating Others



Comparison creeps up on us all and we’ve all experience it in some way but it rarely makes you feel better and it’s often coming from a place of scarcity – believing that there’s not enough success to go around. So as an antidote to comparison, we’re talking about the power of celebrating others and how we can all use this to support others, celebrate successes, raise our own vibrations and also realise that celebrating someone else’s success does not mean you’ve failed or that you’re stopping you from your own successes. We’re chatting about how celebrating others can benefit us all, neutralise jealousy and rewire your brain for success.

173: The Power of Vulnerability and Authenticity



Brene Brown talks about the courage it takes to be vulnerable. This week we’re discussing the power of vulnerability in creating and nurturing connections and how vulnerability can create shared experiences which normalise openness and honesty in relationships at work, romantic relationships, friendships and any human connection. But also that we can’t expect vulnerability or the same level of vulnerability from everyone, however it doesn’t mean you’re wrong to open up and be vulnerable – so how do you recognise and make space for people who choose to be vulnerable to you?

172: Finding Your Passion and Pursuing Fulfilment



It can be easy to get wrapped up in the routine of life and what we “should” be doing, but how often do we actually think about what our passions are? What brings us fulfilment?

In this episode we’re talking about finding your passion, how passions can change and what passions can mean for your wellbeing, free time, relationships and personal development. We also debunk the idea that your job or career has to be your passion, passions can change and develop over time based on what’s fulfilling for you and it doesn’t have to be something that earns you money or becomes a career, passion is more about the pure experience of doing something you enjoy.
