  • In the ninth episode of The Wholesome Vibes podcast, I talk about the things that a friendship breakup can teach you.

    Over the last few episodes of this podcast, I’ve spoken at length about toxic friendships —what to do when you have one and how to get yourself out of a rut— as well as narcissistic friends —specifically, recognizing the signs of a subtle narcissist, which is a lot harder to do.

    This week I want to extend my conversation of friendships by talking about friendship breakups with people who weren’t good for you, and what you can learn from them.

    This podcast is fairly new, so each week I’m trying out new methods of communicating with you, as well as editing, which allows the episode to run smoothly and flow like a conversation. So —please excuse all the errors, the monotone voice or anything else. We’re working on making this podcast the best possible experience for you, and I promise you that we will get there soon.

  • This is a short poetic piece from my book, My Hope for Tomorrow, which has sold over 15,000 copies worldwide. This is one of my absolute favourite books of all time —it holds a special place in my heart. Perhaps because it’s the first book I wrote while dating my now-husband. Perhaps it’s because I was going experiencing and learning a lot in my personal life as I wrote the pieces in this one. Or because this is my first lyrical piece of prose book.

    Regardless of the reason, this book has touched the hearts of thousands of people worldwide, and I really hope that this piece resonates with you too.

    I also want to update you all that my book, ‘The Path to Self-Love’ published by PRH is officially out —in most places— in the world!!! How exciting!! Currently it’s 20% off in the UK, under $20 in the USA and 35% off in India! Brilliant deals!

  • In the eighth episode of the Wholesome Vibes podcast, I talk about narcissistic people.

    Have you ever felt like you never truly knew how someone was until you stopped being friends with them? Then you saw the gaslighting, the manipulation, the attention-seeking behaviour and the sheer narcissism that was right before your eyes —but you were blind to it when they were in your life. Yah. Same. That’s where this episode comes from. It’s not about the arrogant, show-off narcissists that we can easily recognise, no. It’s about the subtle narcissists. The narcissists who hide behind fabricated compliments and light-hearted jealous remarks. The narcissists who present themselves as saint-like-friends who are always there for you and want the best. The narcissists who hide their true personality behind the drama and chaos that they cause in your life because if you’re so busy trying to fix your life —you won’t realize that they are the ones who have created the mess.

    This episode is for you. For all of you. For every person who has falsely believed that someone is their true friend until that hiding-subtle-narcissist stabs them in the back.

    Before you go into this episode —I want to apologise for how robotic my voice sounds in this one. I recorded the whole thing but for some reason the recording app wasn’t working and so much of what I said had been cut off. I then re-recorded it and the second time round I think I just got tired. Nevertheless —this topic is an important one, which is why I’ve decided to go ahead and post the robotic recording and embarrass myself, because that’s how much I’m committed to serving the public good (ha!).

  • This is a short little poetic recording from a page in my book ‘Dear Self’ which had sold nearly 30,000 copies worldwide. This book is my most loved and read book —one that is very different to other books that I’ve written because of the narrative, alongside the lyrical pieces of prose.

    This book will teach you so much about your feelings and emotions, and if you’d like to learn even more —book into my self-love workshop which is being hosted at Olympia London on Sunday 26th May at 10:30am.

  • This is a short poetic piece from my book, Between Us, which is the last book of prose that I wrote before turning to personal development and releasing The Path to Self-Love —published by Penguin Random House.

    This piece is all about trusting the process and learning to let go of the things that didn’t work out. Sometimes the laws of nature are working in our favour and are doing everything they can in the background to make sure that plan that is meant for us —the plan that is for us— takes place.

    I believe a lot in the laws of nature and trusting a higher power. Whenever something doesn’t work out —it’s for the best. I hope you enjoy listening to this piece and please share this piece, as well as all your favourite episodes, with your friends and loved ones.

  • In the sixth episode of the Wholesome Vibes podcast, I talk about how to make the most of the remainder of the year —and what actions we need to slow down to truly enjoy the last 7 months of this year.

    We live in such a busy, fast-paced world where the success of your day is measured by how much you can get done, and for this reason —we forget to be still. To be slow. We forget to appreciate the blessing of taking it one day at a time and truly living in the moment to the make the most of the present. The present is a gift. Literally. And if you’re intrigued —listen to this episode to learn how you can enjoy the present and make the most of the rest of your year.

  • In the fifth episode of the ‘Wholesome Vibes’ podcast, I talk about the many signs that you may have ignored —signs that indicate that you are in a toxic friendship, and my advice on how to leave!

    I write about toxic friendships/toxic people quite a lot. I’ve recorded YouTube videos on them, written blog posts about them, and I’ve even written a whole chapter on relationships, boundaries and toxic people in my book ‘The Path to Self-Love’ which is currently available to pre-order. And just when I think that I’m done, that I’ve learnt everything there is to know about toxic people and I can pick the signs out —I meet new people who teach me that the learning is not yet complete.

    So, I’ve re-evaluated my previous work on toxic people and recorded a brand new —and updated— podcast episode on the many signs of being in a toxic friendship. If you’d like a step-by-step on just what having toxic people means to your self-love journey and your happiness, please pre-order ‘The Path to Self-Love’ and start healing from these toxic relationships.

  • In the fourth episode of the Wholesome Vibes Podcast, I talk about how to prioritise yourself, and do what’s best for your heart, mind and soul.

    Everything that I talk about, all the tips and tools that I give, all the advice that I give, is all based on my personal experiences. I wasted years of my adolescence and early 20s making excuses for prioritising what other people wanted, wished for, what they needed and what would make them happy over what I wanted, wished for, needed and what would make me happy.

    This led to so much mental and emotional suffering on my part that I can't even stress it enough, and it also caused the eventual collapse of those friendships/relationships anyway because they were based on a one-sided prioritising that didn’t take into consideration my wellbeing and my needs.

    For this reason —I wanted to record this week’s episode on how to prioritise yourself so that you don’t make the mistakes that I did. I really hope this episode equips you with the various tools that will help improve your life, and it encourages you to manifest happiness. You’ve got this.

  • In the second episode of the ‘Wholesome Vibes’ podcast, I wanted to talk about how I deal with the bad days. The days that can take you down and under. The days that change your positive mood to a negative one. The days that really take a lot out of you.

    I recorded this podcast after having one of those days —where I woke up feeling fine and ready to conquer my tasks, only to find my energy completely depleted. I felt sad. I felt low. I felt like everything was wrong. And I didn’t know why. So, I did what I usually do on a day like this and I wanted to share it with you.

    If you’re someone who struggles with days like this —this episode is for you! Listen on and hopefully you find some great tips on how to overcome the low days and make room for the high ones.

    P.s. I’m so sorry about the roughness of my voice. I was trying out a new mic and it just didn’t do the bits for me. Next week, I’ll return to my original method of recording. I hope you enjoy this episode!
