What if you’re not tired because you can’t handle “it” (whatever “it” is for you) - you’re tired because your nervous system has been stuck in overdrive. In this episode, I’m sharing the simple science behind Parasympathetic System Activation, and why learning to switch your nervous system out of constant survival mode is the most realistic, life-changing way to recover from burnout.

PSA: a must listen 

My word for 2026 surprised me. Not because it sounded inspiring, but because it made me uncomfortable.

Every woman knows the feeling of over functioning, micro managing and the push and pull of being responsible for far too much. We carry things we shouldn't have to, and sometimes we carry things far too long- to the where it becomes unhelpful.

In this episode, I’m unpacking what it really looks like to get out of your own way when responsibility has gone too far. Not in a “do better” way  but in a way that actually gives you your power back.
The quiet link between resentment and over-responsibility
How control and micromanaging can be nervous system responses, not personality traits
 The difference between being responsible and being over-responsible
What I realised I was taking responsibility for that was never mine
Why insight alone wasn’t enough 
What actually created change
How letting go of certain responsibilities (especially as a parent) can be for the best
What it means to be responsible for your reactions without blaming yourself

This isn’t about fixing yourself.I t’s about noticing where you’ve been carrying too much – and what happens when you stop.If you’ve ever thought “why do I feel resentful when I’m doing everything right?”  This episode might land closer than you expect.

Getting out of my own way: Resentment, Triggers & Control

In this episode, I’m joined by Amy- the founder of The Hosted Home Collective, Airbnb Community Leader, property educator, and the mind behind design-led and a brand new tech-forward start up. Amy shares the mindset shifts that have shaped her success, the business lessons learned from scaling across hospitality, education, and tech, and how intentional design plays a role not just in homes, but in life itself. We talk manifesting, motherhood, creating work that supports the life you actually want, and what it really takes to level up without burning out. This conversation is part strategy, part mindset, and part permission slip for designing a life that feels as good as it looks.
