For many years in my hair dressing chair, I have been told people wish they could have me in their pocket when they need to have a hard conversation.

  • How word dumping is shaped in childhood and can play out as an adult
  • Fear and shaming conversations can push people apart
  • Thinking about the timing of when you have conversations
  • Reading body language to check in with timing
  • When to choose growth
  • How reflection is a curious way to observe ourselves
  • Giving yourself permission to be yourself
  • Choosing when to bring out your inner warrior
  • Where your values are at will determine what you need to defend
  • Taking out blame and judgment in your conversations.

There are three women inside of me: the powerhouse go-getter who has no time for BS, there’s the gypsy dreamer who wants to take her family in a caravan around the country and cut hair along the way, to the mother who is content being settled with simple family life. Who the f**k do they think they all are?

Today we look at balancing different versions within yourself, or hats you need to wear, to allow all parts of you to feel satisfied.

In this episode we cover:

  • Balancing different versions of you
  • Feeling the pull between the different versions of yourself
  • Growth is in the challenge and the failures of life
  • Learning how to appease all sides of yourself
  • Working out what your values are so you can stay true to your personal values
  • Personal values can align between all sides of you, due to those common values
  • Finding ways to make sure you are always living your values to their full extent, and questioning any inconsistencies.

This episode is all about intuition: from the disconnection of our knowing to how to better trust our intuition.

Everyone is born with a knowing, or intuition, but sometimes it can be hard to tap into it.

We dive into the spirit world as I share my experiences of being able to connect with a greater power.

In this episode we cover:

· How intuition can serve you

· Everything carries energy from animals to humans to technology

· Signs to look for that show you are connected to your knowing

· Creating boundaries in the spirit world

· Allowing your superpowers in and abundance to follow.
