Over the weekend something happened that put me in a total spin. Well, for about fifteen minutes...You see, I'd planned a weekend away. A weekend without children, without agenda. Just for me.As a solo-parent I don't get a lot of that. Though let's face it, even parenting with someone, these moments of solitude are often few and far between for many.But I had a plan. My parents were taking the kids for two nights and I was giddy with excitement.In fact, I don't think I even realised how giddy I was until Mum called the day before with the news that she and Dad were really unwell and they wouldn't be able to look after the kids. The poor things were heartbroken not to be able to help and of course see their beloved grandkids.Tears started silently falling down my face as I felt my precious weekend escape slip away. And then I spiralled into all the stories that are so easy to spiral into....... I never get any time for me..... No one understands how much I needed this..... The school holidays feel unbearable without a break..... POOR ME!.... 2020 WHAT THE ACTUAL F*&K ARE YOU!?I gave myself the chance to feel all the feels. And then I did what has become common practice for me and for those that learn from me inside Ready for Change.I decided to take responsibility for the plans changing and seek solutions. Just because my PARENTS were unwell didn't mean that there weren't other options.You'll learn all about the big mindset shift you can make when the chips are down. And how it can move you from victim of your circumstances to powerful creator of the life you want.Links:Ready for Change WaitlistBack to You programFind me on Facebook and Instagram

We're still knee-deep in shutdown mode, so the kids and I have been shaking things up to inject some fun into our evenings... and absolutely loving the switch-up.Which got me thinking:... Why have we all bought into the idea that bath / dinner / bed is the "right" way to do night times (especially if it's not working for you and your family)?... Who wrote the rules about what our lives are "supposed" to look like?... And what other areas of our lives are we subconsciously following these "rules" when there might be a better (and more fun) alternative?This episode is a short one, but it's a biggie. When the shutdown ends, we'll have a one-of-a-kind opportunity to draw a line in the sand and choose which routines and habits we want to take forward with us, and which ones we want to leave behind. So NOW's the time to start getting intentional, and thinking about what you want your "new normal" to be...So what's this conversation REALLY about? •How we've shaken up our night time routine (and why the kids are having a ball) •The big question I'm asking myself, for when this shutdown is all over •What happens to your brain when you really want to create change •The truth about self sabotage (and why it keeps happening) •Are you attached to what 2020 was *supposed* to be like? Here's one way to loosen your grip •How to write your own rules for what your life looks like •Getting intentional about creating your "new normal"So if you want to learn how to inject more joy into your day to day life, shed the stuff that's not serving you, and start creating a new normal... this episode is for you.Links:Ep24: Caring For Your Brain During Times Of Crisis With Allison DaviesThe Conversations With Lisa playlistContinue the conversation with Lisa:Instagram | FacebookYou can quote me on that:"I don't want 2020 to be one of those years that just gets written off." - Lisa CorduffWant to help me out?Leave a review (um, and a hefty handful of stars!) here.

Do you hold yourself back from being visible? Do you stop yourself from speaking up? And do you sometimes feel like you're a 'bit player' in your own life?If you're nodding your head right now, you are not alone - so many women struggle with these exact same blocks. That's why this conversation with today's podcast guest, Sam Nolan-Smith, is so important. Sam's here to help us unpack the hidden beliefs and systems that are keeping us silent and unseen, so that we can step up as leaders and show up in the world as our full, true selves.Sam Nolan-Smith is a business alignment coach, speaker, and founder of The School Of Visibility - an online hub for women who want to speak up, share their wisdom, and change people's lives for good.In this very special episode, I chat with Sam about why visibility is a "women's issue", how to harness the power of habits to change your patterns, why it feels so scary to share your truth, and the uncomfortable moment when I had to check my privilege. As always, it's a no-holds-barred discussion - I hope you enjoy!So what's this conversation REALLY about? •How Sam found herself on this journey to make the invisible visible •The importance of finding your purpose first, then following through with the hustle •The truth about why you feel scared to be seen or speak up (and no, it's not all in your head!) •Why is visibility harder for women than men? •We've all heard the saying "boys will be boys" - why is there no equivalent for girls? •How do ethnicity, culture and race play a part in the visibility of women (and why is it so hard to see our own privilege?) •Strategies for staying on track when you're creating new habits •Clearing your blocks around feminism and visibility •That time Sam accidentally wrote a viral Facebook post that got read by one million people (not a typo!) •How to deal with nerves and lack of confidence •The divine power in using your voice •Plus so much moreIf you want to know more about clearing your visibility fears, embodying a new form of leadership, and finding the confidence to speak your truth, this episode is for you.Links: •Sam's Website •Sam's Instagram •Sam's School Continue the conversation with Lisa:Instagram | Facebook

Conversations with Lisa - CwL Ep 3: Reframing Separation - A conversation with Alisa Latto
play

12/16/19 • 50 min

Welcome to a new conversation.This is my maiden interview for the show and I think you're going to love it. If you don't already know my friend, Alisa Latto, you're in for a treat! She's a wise and powerful woman, and quite simply, I just like listening to her talk! Such a thrill to have her with me on the show as we get right into what a relationship separation is really like. So much of this is about our personal power so even if you're in a happy, stable relationship, there is wisdom here for you.It was an Instagram post by Alisa that got me fired up about this conversation. She shared the fiery words of Rachel Martin (@finding_joy) that called BS on the term 'a product of divorce.' It got me thinking about all of the meanings we give to separation and divorce. Meanings for us, for our ex-partners, for our children, for our extended families. And usually, we slap these meanings on before a separation has even been discussed! Often, those preconceived ideas about what separation will mean keep us stuck; too afraid to pursue what it is we need to be happy. That could be leaving a relationship or it could just be a brave and vulnerable conversation. This conversation is both about walking the road of separation and our power to choose what it will mean for ourselves and for our children.Key takeaways: •When you get to the point of leaving a marriage, it's actually incredibly uncomfortable for everybody else. Those close to you may want you to be more okay or less okay to fit in with their own ideas about the grieving process. Your pain may make them aware of the pain they are avoiding. They may not be capable of holding space for your grief as time goes on. •When you leave a marriage or long term relationship, you grieve equally over the loss the person you're separating from and the dream you had for your life together. •Over the lifetime of a marriage, there are a million micro-decisions that are made taking someone else's opinion into consideration. When that marriage falls away, you have a new opportunity to recreate yourself. It can be unsettling to not know who you are without your marriage but it's an opportunity to get clear on what actually brings you joy. •You can bring your energy back to yourself at any time. You don't need to wait for your marriage or relationship to be ending to ask yourself where you are most centred and where you don't want to bend and sway so much anymore. •Divorce never has to define our children. We can use our language, communication and empathy to provide whatever meaning we choose. You don't have to accept the idea that these defining moments need to define our kids.About AlisaAlisa Latto is the co-founder of 123 Nourish Me and is a writer and nutrition warrior who has avidly studied nutritional medicine, herbal medicine and health sciences for the past decade.

Conversations with Lisa - CWL Ep30: The 'Story' That Nearly Stopped Me Living My Purpose
play

05/12/20 • 17 min

Do you ever tell yourself stories about why you can't do something?... "It's too late for me to go back to uni."... "I'm not cut out for the business world."... "I can never seem to lose weight."... "I can't be a good mum if I'm working 40 hours a week."In this short, punchy episode, I'm sharing a story that I used to tell myself about running a business while being a mother. (Spoiler alert: it involves me ugly crying in front of a room full of colleagues. Fun.)I'm sharing this personal anecdote because it's SO easy to sabotage ourselves. We so often cut ourselves off from the things we truly long for, and build a whole identity about why we can't do things...... and enough is enough.So what's this conversation REALLY about? •"Is it too late for me to do X?" ← What to do if you're asking yourself this question •The real reason we cut ourselves off from the stuff that we want •What I made "being a good mum" mean (and how I nearly sabotaged my entire life purpose) •The weird belief I picked up from childhood about "earning money as a mother" •What happens when we place our self worth outside of our own self •Why your worth is innate (and not tied to your job, income, or anything else) •How to wake yourself up and shine a light on your 'stuff'If you want a loving reminder (or maybe even a kick up the butt!) that your excuses do not need to stop you from creating the life you dream of, you're in the right place.Links:The Conversations With Lisa playlistContinue the conversation with Lisa:Instagram | FacebookYou can quote me on that:"Your worth never has to be questioned.

It was back in 2013 when I first discovered Denise Duffield-Thomas. Back then, I had absolutely no purpose and I didn't really know what I was doing and I stumbled upon Lucky Bitch (Denise's original brand). I absolutely loved it. I thought, this woman has it got it together. I promptly devoured everything she's done since then and I am so excited to have her as a guest on the podcast this week.In this episode we talk about how Denise became one of the most successful business women in the country by using and teaching her techniques around mindset and money. From a newlywed in London, hating her job and feeling down in the dumps about life, she made a massive change by tweaking her thought patterns.It all started with her winning a travel competition and everything took off from there. She got luckier and luckier (using her mindset techniques) and everything just kept falling into place.So what is the episode REALLY about?Key takeaways •The importance of positive thinking and how it truly has an effect on what you get out of life. •How having children can be the fast track to personal development rather than a life stopper as most people assume - Denise's mantra is babies bring abundance! •The importance of boundary setting in your work. •How more success doesn't necessarily mean more work - in fact it's usually the opposite. •Getting over money blocks like earning more than your partner or being too afraid to hustle. •Getting over the mentality that you have to work yourself into the ground in order to earn the type of money you want - it doesn't have to be like that! •Getting over the fear of charging for your services and charging what you're worth.If you're looking to change your life, mix up your career or do something huge with your life, this is the episode for you.
