Podcast: The Career + Life Catch Up
Ep #71: Filling your life vs. Life filling you
It's 2023 and it's time to fill your life with the right things. And that is, what you love. After the pandemic it is easy to us to sit back and wait for life to fills us. We have kind of lost the habit of driving how our lives get filled, isn't it right? Not...
Ep #70: Lessons from 2022 + Outlook for 2023
Welcome to 2023! Can you feel the new, fresh energy that this new year brings? We have been through a lot personally over the last 3 years. 2022 was still a hard and exhaustingly long year. But it brought us different lessons again, which you will hear in this...
Ep #69: Having boundaries
Boundaries are like healthy food - we know we need them, but we find it so hard to stick to. But if you change your mindset around boundaries, you can experience a different level of harmony in your life. I'm quite passionate about having boundaries, and guiding...
Ep #68: Career journeys and redirections
If you look back on your career journey to date, you will see how it has not been linear. Far from it probably. Yes - careers are dynamic and follow a flow that can seem unusual or frustrating at times. But that is until you get to understand that flow and accept it. ...
Ep #67: Being the best working parent you can be
If you are a working parent, I don't need to tell you how hard it is. It's a constant juggle, a game of push-pull across both directions at all times. We often don't feel like we aren't doing well at either. Whilst in fact we are, given the circumstances and the roles...
Ep #66: The post-pandemic hangover
So now that we are in 2022 life is back to normal... is it really? I think we collectively suffer from some kind of hangover. The last 2 years have deeply changed our mind, nervous and immune systems and personal situations. Plus they have exhausted us. It's not as...
Ep #65: Your zone of genius
If you want to improve your overall quality of life, then find your zone of genius. It's that simple, but not that straightforward. But I'm giving you all the essential tools you need on this quest. When we are in our 'zone' where our unique talent expresses itself,...
Ep #63: Letting go vs. holding on
At times in our career or life we really don't know if we should hold on, or let it go. We replay those 2 options over and over again, and quite frankly agonise over the decision. Sometimes neither outcomes feel good. So we stay stuck in that place in the middle, with...
Ep #62: Reconnect with yourself
How often do you connect or reconnect with yourself? Do you even think about it? Most of us don't. We go through life driven by our calendars, other people's agendas, the news and other external factors. The time left to reflect on ourselves, and feeling what we want...
Ep #61: Overcome Your Fears
How do you spot your own fears? This is something I've got really good at as a coach. So many of us operate under the sneaky spell of our fears without being fully conscious of it. But they don't have to be avoided at all costs, or hidden. In fact I want to show you...
Ep #60: 5 career + life lessons in 5 years
I do love looking back and getting lessons from my career + life. 5 years ago I was exiting my corporate job after burning out, with a weak health and no savings. But with a strong desire to become a coach and change women's lives. After doing it for 5 years across...
Ep #59: The shift in workplaces + what it means for you
There is a deep shift happening in workplaces following the pandemic. You may not have noticed it as such where you are, but this is a macro trend and it will unfold over the next few years. In this podcast episode I first paint a picture of the 'old way' in...
Ep #58: Lessons from Dr Shefali
It is not everyday I come across a book that resonates that much with my life experience, and the feelings of my clients. So I had share it with you. Dr. Shefali wrote this book to describe the journey of awakening she went through herself - from feeling powerless...
Ep #57: Staying calm
Calm is the new luxury in our lives, the holy grail. Because our existences are filled with technology that keeps us wired and connected, people who reach us around the clock, and a not-so-ideal work-life blend. So often we are in stress response mode. When was the...
Ep #56: How to Handle Toxic People
Don't we all have experienced interactions with toxic people? Unfortunately they are everywhere. In our workplaces, in our networks, sometimes even within our homes. Being on the receiving end is tough. Our self-confidence falters in the face of those people who are...
