When I last spoke about completing the 75 Hard, I had just finished it under a week prior. Now that over three months have passed since then, I feel I can talk more about the lasting effects of completing the challenge, positive and negative. The short answer to the episode title is a resounding ‘yes’, but I definitely have a more measured perspective on how and why now that some time has passed. Hope you enjoy! Hosted on Acast.

We have so many ways to connect with people. I feel like I’m always seeing people, being seen, talking to people, being talked to - yet I can so easily feel like I haven’t been checking on people, or like people haven’t been checking on me. I’m trying to be mindful of this and show up for my people in ways that are truly felt and really matter to the people I love. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode comes out on October 9th, which is the day before World Mental Health Day. On a visit to Meta (Instagram), I was given the opportunity to use their studios to record and film, and I thought there was no better time and place to talk about mental health: my own, our progress, my and our collective responsibility to those around us and the things I continue to learn about myself every day. Your mental health matters! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Life is a lot! In adult life, there is always a task. Always. How to cope with always feeling like you should be doing something else, like you should be doing more? Realism and acceptance - I’m trying. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Everyone feels insecure at some time about something. I felt a real wave of insecurity last week about something I’m never usually insecure about anymore. This was really uncomfortable to think about and to record, but it felt right to interrogate that feeling and talk about it rather than pretend it didn’t happen. I’m glad I chose to. Hosted on Acast.

It’s been exactly two years since content creation became my full-time job. I’ve learned a lot in that time, about this industry and about myself, so it felt appropriate to reflect about how I feel about my work, two years into a job I love. These are quite unpolished and personal reflections, but I hope they’re hopeful and interesting nonetheless. Have a wonderful week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Anger, in my experience, is one of the most overwhelming emotions. It startles and scares me sometimes how much anger can distort, but its force isn’t always a negative presence either. I wouldn’t describe myself as an angry person but I do work a lot on how I deal with and process my anger when it arises. It’s one of many journeys that I continue on. Hosted on Acast.

Giving people grace is something I'm really trying to do more of. My problem in the past has been giving too much grace and failing to protect myself in the process but I know there's a way to balance the two. Ultimately, I wouldn't be who I am were it not for the grace given to me by the people around me, and I always want to give my fellow human being a chance. Hosted on Acast.

Ten questions for ten episodes! To celebrate the mini-milestone of reaching episode 10, I’ve chosen ten questions from listeners to answer in today’s episode - I think I picked well, I hope you do too! NB: In the answer to question 8, I say I lived in Paris when I was 22 and graduated when I was 24 - I actually lived in Paris when I was 20 and graduated when I was 22, the pandemic years ruined my mental timeline!

For something we have to do, sleep can be really hard to come by. I decided I wanted to fix my sleeping habits years ago; it’s taken a very long time to feel like I’ve become a good sleeper but wow, is it worth it when I have a good night. This year I’ve been on a crusade, a mission to clock up as many 8-hour nights as possible! I still find It difficult sometimes but a bad nights’ sleep is the exception now, not the rule and I’m grateful for that. Whatever helps you sleep at night, am I...

This episode is for my hard-working people who never feel like they’re working hard enough. I struggle to feel as though I’m as disciplined as I am, because I always feel that there’s more I could be doing. Working on understanding what discipline is, applying my own definition of the idea to my life and seeing discipline as a tool rather than a punishment have been essential to me becoming a more disciplined person, for the right reasons. Hope you enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See...

Recently, I've been asked a lot of questions about my positive nature. Truthfully, I don't think I have a lot of the answers myself. I know I'm a lot ore positive than I used to be, I know it's something I've consciously worked towards and it's probably a combination of many things that have worked and helped me progress. This isn't the last time I'll talk about this, I feel I only scratched the surface, but I hope this will be of some help nonetheless. Have a great week! Hosted on Acast....

I love reading. I LOVE reading! I lost that love a few years ago, but I'm finally back in the habit of reading and enjoying it as much as I used to. These are the reasons why, and what helped me recapture the love for one of my favourite habits. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I just completed the 75 Hard - and I kept it a secret the whole time. As you can imagine, two and a half months have given me a LOT to say. Stick around to hear it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

How we talk to ourselves and the things we speak over ourselves is so very important. Life is hard enough without being my own enemy! I'm trying to make sure I always talk to myself as I would a friend, because me & myself are going to be together for life. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I have a lot of time to think right now, and I'm wondering if it's too much. Working through emotions is a lot. but it's honest work. It doesn't always make me happy, but it does leave me content - and sometimes, that's more important. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Patience is a virtue but this is one area where I struggle to be virtuous. Waiting for my time is its own specific kind of hard work and though I'm struggling to improve, improve I slowly and surely am. I guess I just need to be patient. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
