“We’re pulled from here to there and always have an endless to-do list...this creates a numbness in our body...”

If you are a seriously busy, working mum who feels overworked, overwhelmed and overscheduled, then you may relate to this sentence.

And if you do, then get excited about this two podcast series featuring Brooke Maggs from She Desires.

She Desires is a business that delivers coaching and workshops to help very busy women (usually mothers) regain their sense of self and their vitality.

Hold. The. Phone!

Our interview with Brooke reveals a candid conversation about how the state of busy women's lives leads us with a complete lack of focus on our own sensual needs and desires.

Let's be honest, the need to connect with our desires is often easily pushed to the bottom of our list. In our efforts to drive our careers, to love and nurture our children, to be good wives / partners and friends, to contribute to our communities and to pretend that our hair is not greying and our tummies are not plumping - we can sometimes forget the benefits that spontaneity, excitement, risk and passion can add to our own vitality and our relationships.

This is a different kind of wellness and vitality to prioritise, for our own sake and for the sake of our relationships. 

These two episodes are well worth the listen. After interviewing Brooke, Stace and I left the recording studio with a whole new perspective on life. These are the conversations we need to have more of. 

Enjoy.
