Diet culture is STILL pervasive and we're desperately in need of an alternative. More about Amanda... Amanda is a dietitian, who's revolutionising PCOS care with weight inclusive, non-diet and holistic approach. Her own journey of breaking free from diet culture thr...
Calling all perfectionists, and those who are perfectionists but don't even realise! So everone, really. Perfectionism is rife in our culture, with a particular potency and flavour among women. And somtimes it's just below the surface, holding us back in ways we're not even aware of. Today's episode poses the question, 'when did you promise perfect, and who did you promise it to?' We look at signs you might be unconsciously 'promising perfect' to yourself or others, why this is re...
Do you consider yourself to be an activist? What does it mean to you? In today's episode, I'm sharing how I've grappled with the title 'activist' and landed in identifying as a 'crap activist'. If you don't necessarily see yourself as a 'real activist' but you do care about the world, other people, and us as a whole, you just might like to join me. There's a place for a huge range of expressions of activism, each one playing its part. This episode might help you find yours. ...
I'm chatting with remarkable human, Integrative Sexologist, and my dear friend, Vanessa Muradian. Vanessa thinks and feels wide and deep and we cover a bit in this episode, from experiencing grief during the ovulation phase to cultivating intimacy with and without sex, to the most common reasons people come to see Vanessa as a Sexologist, to my perception of Vanessa as someone with big feelings and why that seems ironic to them. Grab a cuppa for this one and enjoy. xx Vanessa (she/they...
Do you find yourself stuck somewhere between focused work and quality rest? Spending too much time in 'work-ish' or 'rest-ish' can leave you feeling unproductive, unrested and unsatisfied. In this episode I share my experience in reducing the 'ish' in my life, and offer some tips if you want to do the same. I offer practical ways to set boundaries for focused work and ideas for ensuring your rest and recreation time is truly satisfying. Join me as I invite you to reflect on your o...
Join me as I reflect on a decade of tracking my cycle and the changes I’ve experienced along the way. This is (of course) not a linear journey, and there's no 'mastery' of the practice of cycle alignment. That's part of its beauty. As I approach the transition into perimenopause, I discuss the lessons learned and how this journey has prepared me for what lies ahead. Whether you're new to the idea of menstrual cycle awareness or are a seasoned tracker, this episode offers reflections and enco...

Gratitude is more than an airy-fairy buzz word. There are loads of studies that show the positive effects of practising gratitude. Apart from anything else - it makes you feel good! Join me in this episode as I share three real-life benefits that all of us can tap into. This is the last episode for Season 2 of Yes You.

In this meditation, I will guide you through a process of creating a sense of space and easy throughout your body, before asking your body to speak to you. In a state of deep relaxation, it's a beautiful opportunity to listen to the deep knowing within your body. This session follow on from last week's episode on remembering you have a body. If you haven't already, have a listen to that as well. The Orchard Business Mentoring for Women APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN! Join me for a ...
Patriarchal culture espouses the devaluing and domination of the body - especially women's bodies. They're controlled, shrunk, groomed, objectified and judged. Even in spiritual or religious traditions, the body is often considered a distraction or temptation - something to be transcended. With all this going on, it's understandable that we've learned to ignore our bodies, how they feel, what they need, and what they have to say. In today's episode, I share three ways you can explore honou...
We all want to be successful, right? But have you considered what that really means for you? There's no definitive example of a successful person, life, or business. It means something different for each of us, and is ours to define for ourselves. What does it mean for you? Success is not so much a finish line to cross, but a north star guiding us on our way. It's away of being, regardless of any finite goals we may set and whether or not we achieve them. Consider your own idea of success ...
I've been through burnout twice, and I learned a lot each time. And last time, I made a promise to myself that I'd never let it happen again. In this episode we're taking a look at what burnout is and what we can do to help prevent it. I share my experiences of being burnt out and lessons I've learned along the way, as well as tips for how to recognise it and what to do if you're burned out or on the way there. From this episode: Check out the First Nations Film Festival this NAIDOC...
Have you ever thought about tracking the seasons in your business? I don't mean just tracking sales. I mean paying attention to the ebb and flow unique to your business. As you build a picture of this over time, you can begin to anticipate what's ahead and make plans to use each season in the best way for you. A quiet patch in business can be stressful if it's unexpected and you don't know how long it's going to last! But if you can see it coming, you can plan ahead and use it for rest ...
Naturopath (and my sister🥰) Louisa Carter shares what she sees in her practice supporting women through perimenopause. Often people have recently ramped up anxiety, sleep issues, and PMS with seemingly no explanation, not realising the hormonal fluctuations of this life season could be responsible. We chat about how to best support yourself during this time, and Louisa shares her own approach, personally, to this life transition. From today's episode: Connect with Louisa at: louisac...
In today's episode we're looking at the thoughts and actions that you're practising over and over, maybe even without realising it.... and where these might be taking you. If you practice playing guitar every day, you'll get into the habit of practising AND you'll probably get good at the guitar. That's obvious. But what about the thoughts you're practising? And the words, and the behaviours? Are they leading you in the direction you want to go? As you illuminate an...
Do you tend to tell other people about goals you have for yourself? Who do you tell? How has that worked out for you? Today we're chatting about whether sharing your goals with others makes a difference in actually achieving the goal. It turns out, the real question might not be whether you share your goals, but who you share them with. I'm chatting from my own experience and looking at what different research suggests. * * * * * If you're interested in my upcoming group mentoring program,...
Do you love what you do? I'm really grateful that I can genuinely say I do. My business, Eve Studio, just passed the 10 year mileston, and after all these years, I am still loving it.

You know those moments when you find yourself feeling frazzled? Overstimulated? Pulled in a million directions? I had one of those moments just the other day. It crept up on me. I was feeling fine and then, seemingly suddenly (though not actually suddenly) It all just felt like a bit much. In today's episode I'm sharing about those moments and offering 5 things you can try when they happen to you. You probably have a toolkit for how you handle stress. Consider this episode a 5-pack set...
Ok, so despite the fact that I've been sharing about living according to seasons and cycles for years now, it turns out I had a blind spot. It hadn't occurred to me to take a seasonal approach to this podcast. 🤦🏼‍♀️ It turns out, just a simple shift of mindset and bringing in a seasonal approach made a big difference, renewing my motivation and inspiring some fresh ideas. So as we launch into what is now officially Season 2, I'm sharing more on that, and asking you (yes you!) if a sim...
