In today's episode, I chat with Juliet Goodwin, a nutritional therapist who brings a unique perspective to health and wellbeing, combining her background as an NHS nurse with her expertise in holistic nutrition and emotional healing techniques.

Juliet shares her inspiring journey of transitioning from nursing into nutritional therapy, all while juggling the demands of working and bringing up a young family. What sets Juliet apart is her 'whole person' approach to identifying the causes of illness and stress - describing herself as 'a health detective,' looking at aspects such as her clients' life timeline, the body's systems and the kinds of psychological elements that can impact wellbeing.

One of the fascinating aspects of Juliet's practice is her integration of EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping into her offerings. She explains what it is, how it works, and why it's so effective as a means of de-stressing – and even how it helped her pass her driving test!

We explore the concept of 'midlife awakening'—a particularly relevant topic for women who have often spent years putting everyone else first by default. This was particularly interesting in the context of menopause and perimenopause, and how these transitions can be conveyed as wholly negative experiences; yet she presents them as powerful opportunities—a perspective that feels both refreshing and empowering.

So whether you're navigating midlife transitions, looking to take a more holistic approach to your health, or simply ready to make yourself more of a priority, Juliet's compassionate insights and practical wisdom offer a roadmap to reclaiming your identity and wellbeing.

Enjoy the show!

In today's episode, I chat with the wonderful Feola McCandlish, who shares her inspiring journey as a Daisy First Aid franchisee. Feola opens up about her transition from a demanding career in graphic design and marketing to finding a business model that allowed her to balance work with family life.

In our conversation, Feola explains how she struggled to return to a traditional workplace after having her first child, feeling torn between her career and desire to be present for her children; an all too familiar dilemma for so many of us! After investigating various options, she discovered Daisy First Aid—a franchise teaching life-saving first aid skills to parents, schools, and businesses—which and this proved to be a perfect fit for her circumstances.

Perhaps what struck me most in our conversation, was Feola's profound personal transformation. She reveals how stepping far outside her comfort zone—particularly in overcoming her fear of public speaking—has built her confidence in ways she could never have imagined.

We also explore the benefits of the franchise model, and how it can provide autonomy of business ownership alongside the support of an established community, as well as the flexibility that allows being fully present as a mother.

So whether you're considering a career change, looking for flexible work options, or simply interested in the franchising model, Feola's journey story offers valuable insights about finding fulfilment through purposeful work that truly accommodates your personal priorities too.

In today's episode, I’m thrilled to present my conversation with psychotherapist, author and speaker Anna Mathur. I’ve had the pleasure to know Anna since I wrote a poem for her book The Uncomfortable Truth and she asked me to read it at her book signing event, so I’m overjoyed to welcome her to the podcast to discuss her journey, her learnings, and that wonderful book ‘The Uncomfortable Truth.’

Over the course of this episode, we cover everything from her uni days, to her journey into psychotherapy, her refreshingly fluid approach to career planning, as well as exploring how we can apply the notion that what really matters is living in alignment with the things that set our hearts on fire. I’m SO on board!

I was truly honoured that Anna reflected with incredible honesty about her experience of motherhood, and amongst other things, how making a difference to others became a source of positivity at a time when she was otherwise struggling, giving her a sense of identity and purpose that was all too elusive at the time.

In discussing ‘The Uncomfortable Truth,’ I particularly enjoy her take on failure, and the premise that it is so vital a process for all of us, making it so important that we learn to embrace it; we explore why failure feels so personal, and how much the fear of failure is actually about what other people think, yet we also discuss techniques and mindsets to help channel and overcome it.

If you’re looking for something to inspire you this week, I urge you to pop this episode on, and immersed yourself in Anna’s wisdom. You’ll be so greatful that you did!

Enjoy the show!
