In this episode I want to share with you a story about my Auntie Nellie. Her life’s path may have been chosen for her but she lived it with positivity and sunshine.
I want to tell you about how she went from being a Convent Nun to driving a pimped up Ford Escort!
She certainly sowed the seeds of greatness for me, and even today her legacy lives on in the younger generations of our family.
You’ll soon hear how having trust in the universe/faith/belief can mean that “life is happening for you, not against you” as the wonderful Oprah says. Enjoy!
And I hope Auntie Nellie helps you to find a parking space or two :)

In this episode, I talk about a time when I was scared. I'm not talking about being afraid of heights or being terrified by a horror movie. I’m referring to how a new and exciting business opportunity led to knots in my stomach. How my loud inner chatter was there knocking my confidence and making me feel apprehensive about stepping out of my comfort zone. I want to tell you how I turned this limiting feeling around and kept my courage through it. Maybe it will inspire you to do the same when faced with new opportunities in life.

Join me and Maria Frances Marinay, Co Founder of beige. social, a social media agency helping conscious brands build strong, engaged communities online. Born in the Philippines, Maria's entrepreneurial spirit started young when she created a chocolate business with her hard working mum. Not a fan of being in the limelight selling, Maria's introverted nature led her to a love of social media. Hear all about her journey, how she overcame the hardships of visa challenges, burnout and anxiety but always had her mums voice in the background encouraging her. It really demonstrates the legacy thinking of resilience and courage that she inherited from her hard working Filipino mum. A wonderful, touching story I think you'll agree.

Join me and Sera Murphy, known as The ReOutfitter, a personal fashion stylist with sustainability at the heart of her business. Listen to how she went from fun fashion swaps with friends to starting a business that impacts positively on people and the planet - a powerful combination. Sera is truly inspiring with her passion for slow fashion. We talk about her journey into entrepreneurship as well as the challenges she faced during motherhood and how this experience has given her strength to run her own business.
I love how we both work with helping people be their most authentic self - I focus on the inside, Sera the outside. By understanding yourself more, and your style, you'll be able to make much more sustainable choices.

Join me and Dee Khanduja Allan who authentically shares her experience of divorce and how, during her darkest days she lifted and raised other women who were experiencing the same. Dee supported expat and low income women to realise their worth and move forward with their lives by sharing her experience and intel on recruitment, CVs and interviews.
I loved hearing about Dee's inner grit and her determination to change her narrative, her 'whispers' plus asking herself empowering questions only, which in turn helped her "grow new wings" and change her life.
If you are experiencing challenges in your relationship, or perhaps you have faced/are facing trauma right now, you will gain such inspiration from Dee's words. Healing really does start from the inside.Thank you so much for listening!

Join me and Skye Wellington, Co-Founder & Chief Enjoyment Officer of Wisecracks Drinks, a lo/no alcohol-free beverage company.
We have the most interesting conversation about why people drink alcohol, how we've been socially conditioned to use it, the targeting of women in alcohol campaigns and why she co-founded Wisecrack. I love how her business is giving people choice. Not just with their large selection of delicious drinks (and I can testify to that as a customer!) Skye is providing people the alternatives to sinking some booze. If you've been considering joining the sobriety movement or even just want to cut back on your alcohol consumption, you'll enjoy hearing how Skye (and myself!) have embraced sobriety on a daily basis.Thank you so much for listening!

Join me for a conversation with Alex Mearns who when working in the financial industry faced a ‘wake up’ call due to his own ill health and how this led him to find his ‘true calling’. This journey to improved health sparked a passion for helping others too and a move out of the financial business to become the Founder of Levitise and Holistic Health Practitioner here in Singapore. Alex talks about how he did his own self-help research to improve his own mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing without the need of medication. After considering a few new and varied career options including organic coffee, Alex came up with Levitise – a multi-specialist service for senior executives who are stressed and lacking energy. A state of being that he can 100% relate too.
We discuss the impact of Covid and the hamster wheel that so many people are on, how the 6 human needs are so key right now, in particular connection and variety.
It is inspiring to hear how changing his mindset whilst building Levitise has given him more awareness and improved empathy that is now allowing him to feel content and in his words a ‘better’ human being .

Join me for a conversation with new entrepreneur, Elly Both, who started Bright Green just over 12 months ago.. Elly’s mission of “doing something good for the World” is really coming into fruition with her new company where she supports businesses to become more sustainably aware. Elly came from the corporate world, but something just didn’t feel right. All the puzzle pieces started to come together… doing a sort out at home and the unsettling feeling of where waste ends up, seeing lack of sustainability in the office, wanting to be more responsible at home with less single use items… it was a passion that moved into the workplace and had an impact that she didn’t expect. The ‘green team’ in the office was born and soon enough Elly was leaving that behind to create Bright Green. Listen to Elly talk openly about why she decided to leave the safety net of the Corporate World to step into her power and mission to help people and businesses live a more sustainable life. A pure success story of marrying her Project Management skills with her passion to change the world. If you are a business looking for consultancy to be more earth-friendly do get in touch with Elly and help her smash her BHAG!

In this episode join me for a fascinating conversation with Sonia Osborne, an expert Nutritionist based in Singapore. What an incredible story of moving from the ‘dark side’ of food marketing to healing gut health and nutrition. Sonia felt that her ethical values were being challenged so she walked away to follow her true passion. It is so inspiring to hear how she is now supporting children and adults to heal themselves through nutrition. As a mum of teenage twins it was also great to hear how she is motivating them to live with gut health in mind and how her husband has felt the positive results of Sonia’s knowledge and love for good food. Let’s hope for a Sonia to write a cookbook in the future! Enjoy listening!

Join me for a conversation with Singapore Kiss92FM DJ and Music Director, Shan Wee, where we talk about his upbringing in Northern Ireland, his career path into radio and how writing became part of his boy’s bedtime routine!
Shan is the author of two books, one non-fiction (99 Rules for New Dads) and one fiction (The Short Life of Raven Munro). I loved how Shan wanted to write to leave a legacy, for his books and name to be public and on bookshelves forever. Yet naturally the other legacy he has for his boys comes from the power of self-confidence and self-esteem which he got from his stable family unit.
I love hearing people’s stories of childhood to where they are now, and Shan’s story just highlights that people make the world go round 😊 Enjoy!

Join me for a conversation with Visha Nelson, Award Winning Founder of The Cinnamon Room where we talk about how she followed her instinct and left the corporate world where she was an unhappy, successful lawyer to finding her freedom and joy in life by becoming a happy and successful entrepreneur. We discuss the negative impact of doing a job just "because you can" to having the courage and resilience to change to a career where you follow your passions, and where working hard feels effortless and fun. Visha's passion for interiors is so apparent, you really can sense that she really has found her purpose. When an interior designer says how they help clients create a beautiful home where it isn't all about looks, it's about how it feels, you can sense the true love she has for her work. I'm so pleased she followed her 'inner calling'. You'll really enjoy listening to Visha, she really has bags of courage, is living her truth and creating her own story.
