“This isn’t me!”

1. Ever felt like a shell of yourself?


2. Looked in the mirror and didn’t recognise the person looking back?


3. Ever been at war with yourself, wanting to progress forward, but fear is holding you back?

When the perfect storm hits we go into survival mode and we are the first to beat ourselves up, but we have a choice on how we treat ourselves, so let’s be brave and start being kind to ourselves. Stop being your own inner judge, stop comparing your backstage to everyone else’s on stage appearance.

Tell fear and self doubt to take a long walk off a short plank and get back in that drivers seat today!

Asking for help is one of the simplest yet “hardest and most important first step to take”

Step away from “comparisionitus” and get inspired with today’s podcast guest Michelle Reeves, Certified life/business coach and author of ‘Happiness Habits Transformation’ as she opens up about her journey with post natal depression, going from running teams and managing budgets to flying half way across the world and not being able to function.

Michelle is a hugely successful and inspiring lady who has used her experience and knowledge of her illness to turn herself around and get back on top!
