This conversation is like one of my usual chats with Unami - a heart to heart where she does most of the listening to start with then starts dropping pearls of wisdom, without even realising. Fact check and trigger warning: I incorrectly said I was 40 with 4 living Grandparents. I did the maths and they all passed away in my late 30s - anyway, they were amazing people, an absolute gift to know them. We talked about grief and other difficult and interesting things… her upbringing in Botswana, studying in Australia, and insights from her work as a psychologist. And we discussed asking for help! And it's more than ok to call a helpline, talk to a trusted friend, make time to work through the tough stuff. If you're affected by any of our stories and conversation, please search out the support services in your country, and don't stop searching if you don't connect with the first few. There's always someone who cares and wants to help. You matter more than you know. You're loved and cared for more than you know. Cheering you on, Kerrie Here's Unami's beautiful introduction - My name is Unami Magwenzi and I am a wife, mother, clinical psychologist, songwriter and an author. I was born and raised in Botswana, Southern Africa. I live in Australia with my family and enjoy photography, writing, meeting new people and learning about different cultures. I graduated from the University of Wollongong in 2006 and have been practicing as a Psychologist for about 12 years Find Unami here - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/unami-magwenzi-23ab856/ Find Kerrie here - Support me create more podcasts by buying me a coffee - https://bmc.link/kerriephipps Website - https://kerriephipps.com/ LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kerriephipps/ Facebook public page - https://www.facebook.com/KerriePhipps1 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kerriephipps/ Twitter - https://twitter.com/kerriephipps Twitter podcast - https://twitter.com/ConnectingPod --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/kerriephipps/message

OH my word. I LOVE this conversation - and it’s such a personal one to share with you all. Hope you love it and let us know your thoughts, ideas or reflections. Janet Beckers is an extraordinary, award-winning business leader and author, with an amazing history of accomplishments from surf life-saving to speaking on big stages and helping online business owners thrive - but we didn’t cover those things.  I asked Janet to share with us what she and her family do at the end of every year - to celebrate the year and step into the next, with creativity and intention.  We unpacked some of the really important lessons that we can learn from taking a little time for a process like this. It’s so valuable. It's fun, it's creative, but also really important. We explored a few of our favourite questions - for self and others - such as “When was the last time you did something for the first time?” We discussed the value of asking “What are you proud of?” and “What are you looking forward to?”  And some challenging questions for self, such as, “have you ever used gratitude to prevent you from being truly honest with yourself? What else do you need to acknowledge?”  Taking some time at the end of a year, a season of growth or challenge, a birthday - any potential turning point - to purposefully reflect and pull out the learning and acknowledgements, sets you up for a more purposeful, intentional and successful ‘next season’ or next year. Enjoy - and take some time out for you and your future.   Cheering you on, Kerrie PS. Did you love this? Want to cheer me on with a coffee?
