In this episode of Connected for Iva, I talk about the exhaustion of overthinking everything â relationships, decisions, timing, identity, and the constant pressure to get life 'right.' May left me feeling emotionally unsettled, caught between intuition and anxiety, certainty and doubt, and wondering why trusting myself suddenly felt so difficult.
We live in a world full of endless possibilities and constant comparison, where every choice can begin to feel existential. This conversation is about the paralysis that comes from trying to optimize your entire life, the fear of making the wrong decision, and learning that peace might not come from finding the perfect path, but from finally allowing yourself to live the one youâre already on.

'What if happiness isnât a feeling?'

In this episode, Iâm joined by Jacqui Ponde, the voice behind Instagram account My Incomplete Wardrobe, who shares her life after a life-altering C4/5 spinal cord injury. A former primary school teacher, Jacquiâs life changed in an instant after a fall that left her paralysed from the neck down, forcing her to reimagine everything she thought she knew about identity, motherhood and purpose.
We talk about what it really means to lose the âbeforeâ version of yourself and the often unseen work of building a life again from scratch. Jacqui reflects on the power of community, from the army wife network that carried her family through crisis to the small, human moments of connection that can change a day, or even a life.
This is a conversation about resilience, yes, but also about loneliness, identity, and the unexpected beauty that can exist alongside loss.
Jacqui is committed to supporting charities that help people living with spinal cord injuries. If youâd like to support her work, you can find out more or donate at Spinal Injuries Association and Flying Scholarships for Disabled People, both of which provide vital support, community and opportunities for people rebuilding their lives after injury.

In this 7 minute guided meditation, youâre invited to slow down, breathe, and notice how youâre feeling.
Instead of trying to change or fix your emotions, this mindfulness practice helps you to simply allow them to be present. Emotions naturally rise and fall like waves, and when we give them space, they often begin to subside on their own.
Take a few minutes to relax your body, calm your nervous system, and reconnect with the present moment.
Whatever you're feeling today is welcome here.

There Is Enough for Everyone is a conversation about connection, fear, and what happens when women choose abundance over competition.
Iâm joined by Lori, a jewellery designer I was introduced to by someone we both know â and felt instantly connected to. We talk about her move from America to the UK, how fear shows up when youâre evolving, and why fear doesnât always mean stop â sometimes it means grow.
We explore why women who work for themselves are often the ones opening doors, bringing someoneâs name into the room, and creating space for others. This episode is about trusting that thereâs enough to go around, sitting with discomfort when it comes, and taking risks instead of staying still.
Itâs a reminder that growth is shared, abundance is contagious, and what goes around really does come around.

In this episode of Connected with Iva, Iâm joined by Anja Joy Bont for a conversation about what happens when life takes a turn you didnât plan for â and how to stay with it instead of fighting it.
This conversation was inspired by an Instagram post Anja shared â her 2025 recap â where she openly talked about how things didnât unfold the way she expected. That honesty became the starting point for a deeper discussion about trusting life when it feels uncomfortable, confusing, or simply harder than we imagined.
We talk about how much the way we see things shapes how we experience them, and how our conditioning â everything weâve been told, taught, and absorbed âinfluences how we interpret challenges, success, and even ourselves. We explore the idea that many of our thoughts and reactions arenât really us but learned responses weâve been carrying for years.
We also speak about learning to listen to your deeper self, especially during moments when life feels challenging, uncertain, or out of your control â and what it looks like to allow life to unfold without forcing it to match a plan.
This episode isnât about bypassing hard moments or pretending everything happens for a reason. Itâs about developing a more honest relationship with life as it is, and learning how to meet challenges with awareness, trust, and a little more softness.
