Your Purpose Over Your Fear: Building a Visible Business with Fi Mims

Dr Jodi Richardson is joined by family therapist, educator and author Lisa Taylor for a deeply honest and eye-opening conversation about parenting, anxiety, and the hidden patterns shaping our family lives.

After more than 25 years working with families, Lisa shares one powerful truth: it’s not about learning more parenting strategies… it’s about understanding ourselves first.

Together, Jodi and Lisa explore how parenting can stir our deepest fears, why our reactions often come from our own childhood “heart prints,” and how shifting from control to connection can transform our relationships with our kids.

In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why parenting triggers anxiety and big emotional reactions
What “heart prints” are—and how they shape your responses
The difference between reacting to your child vs responding to them
Why behaviour always equals a need
How curiosity, courage and connection can change everything
The three core emotional needs we all share: to feel seen, heard and loved

PLUS, Lisa shares practical ways to pause in the moment, create more emotional “bandwidth,” and move away from the pressure of perfect parenting.

This is a powerful reminder that we’re not just raising children—we’re growing ourselves too.

The 1 Question That Shifts Everything for Anxious Parents with Lisa Taylor

In this rich and honest Part 2 conversation, Jodi and Dr Kat pick up where they left off, diving even deeper into the tools and strategies that help us recover, recharge, and truly thrive — both at work and at home.

In this episode, you'll learn:
Why connection and community are non-negotiable ingredients for recovery - and how to "stack" activities for an additive effect
How to identify your personal non-negotiables across the week (not just the day) so you can feel like you again
The three components of burnout that go beyond exhaustion - and why so many high-achieving women are quietly experiencing all three
Why women are often carrying a second and even third shift - and what the data says about when people are logging on to work
The gender differences in how we're triggered by our environment and why tidying the Tupperware drawer isn't just procrastination - it's nervous system regulation
A simple two-column exercise to audit your job demands vs. your job resources
How to say no gracefully at work - with Dr Kat's go-to script for managing up without burning bridges
What good work really means, and why Dr Kat believes work can be the solution to the mental health crisis, not just the problem

Dr Kat also shares more about her brand new book, Good Work: Transform Your Work from the Inside Out - a must-read for anyone who works (so, all of us!). Available on Amazon or through your local bookshop.

Your Job Demands vs Your Job Resources: The Exercise That Could Change Everything (Part 2) with Dr Kat Page

Feeling overwhelmed at work? You’re not alone - and it might not be a “you” problem.

In this episode of Well, Hello Anxiety, Dr Jodi Richardson is joined by organisational psychologist Dr Kat Page, author of Good Work, to explore how our workplaces can shape our mental health - for better or worse.

Together they unpack why anxiety and stress at work are often a natural response to demanding environments, not a personal weakness. From constant interruptions and heavy workloads to a lack of control or recovery time, Dr Kat explains how modern work can keep our nervous systems stuck in “stress mode.”

But there is hope.

In Part 1 of this conversation, you’ll learn:
• Why anxiety at work is often a normal biological response, not a failure
• How high demands and low control can lead to burnout and job strain
• The powerful concept of “punctuating your day” with small pauses to reset your nervous system
• Why the way you spend your time after work can make a huge difference to your recovery

If you’ve ever felt stretched between work, family, and life admin - this episode will help you understand what’s really going on and give you practical ways to support your wellbeing.

🎧 Plus: This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation with Dr Kat Page... stay tuned for Part 2 next week.
