  • It is an honour to have Nicky on today’s show, she is my first returning guest on the Not Perfect Podcast. For those that are yet to listen to the previous episode with Nicky, I can’t wait to introduce you to her. She is a maturation facilitator, teacher and coach, integrative holistic counsellor, breath-work facilitator and author. It is with great pleasure I welcome her back today to talk about her new book, Surrender. 


    The idea of surrendering and letting go can be really challenging at times. Perhaps you're feeling a bit stuck in an area of your life and looking to take a step forward. Surrendering isn't easy and while it can be scary...wow is it liberating! I couldn't wait to have this conversation with Nicky and explore this powerful tool which is available to all of us as we move through life. We discuss what surrender means, how to do it and why it's so important.

  • I am joined today by a long term friend of mine, Genelle Aldred. Genelle is a former ITV and BBC journalist and the founder of communications consultancy GA\C. She is now a published author and has written a book we all need to read. It’s called Communicate for Change: Creating justice in a world of bias and it explores the missing nuisance to our conversation in the public arena at this moment in time. It’s a thought provoking book that unpacks the tribalism we see in our culture and presents a new way forward, a far more harmonious way, a way that appreciates all individuals and is a guide book to how we get there.


    If we want to make a positive difference, we have to know how to recognise our own biases and blind spots - only then can we understand how to be part of the solution and start having meaningful conversations. Genelle offers suggestions to help us be better listeners, readers, watchers and talkers. She breaks down the barriers to effective conversation so that we can disagree in a more nuanced and thoughtful way and stop singular narratives driving our conversation.


    This was such a fascinating conversation and I'm thrilled she's shone a light on a topic that is so relevant. I can't wait for you all to hear it!

  • This week my guest is someone who is totally extraordinary and her energy fills an entire space with such positivity and empowerment. Tai Beauchamp is a motivational speaker, media personality, meditation leader, writer, entrepreneur, philanthropist and soon to be author. In the past year she set up morning mindset with Tai and has thousands tuning in several times a week to upgrade their minds in the mornings and it is honestly so refreshing. 


    Today we dive into her wisdom and Tai explains why a morning routine is so important. She discusses the tools you need to create a great morning and what thoughts to consciously bring into your mind. She explains that so many of us are jumping up into our day and not preparing our heart and spirit to expect, desire and design great things. She believes that the way you start and the way you begin is half the win. It's all about being in the right headspace to get what we want and clear as to what actions we want to take.


    I also wanted to let you all know that I'm taking a short summer break from the podcast but I will be back with some more fantastic guests in September!
