    Why you should break some rules

    Hey welcome to another episode of the Smash Your Own Ceiling Podcast.
    Today I’m talking all about why you should break some rules…
    Here’s what I mean. So often we can find ourselves bending over backwards trying to fit into other people’s rules of life, or trying to achieve things we think we ‘should’ be doing. Only to get ourselves into a place where we’re overwhelmed, tired, stressed and unhappy.
    So, what’s the answer? It’s time to break some rules…
    Here’s what I share:
     – My view on morning routines when I’m really not a morning person
     – Changing the ‘rule’ to fit me
     – The trap of following the ‘should’s’
     – How I maximise ‘in-between times’ in my day
     – The secret benefit to having boosters throughout my day
     – How instead of a morning routine I focused on a bedtime routine which worked so much better
    I’d love to hear about the rules that you’ve decided to break, let me know by leaving a comment.

    🎙The challenge of consistency – What do you do if you miss a day?

    Hey, welcome to another episode of the Smash Your Own Ceiling Podcast.

    So, at the beginning of January I committed and had every intention of publishing a podcast episode every single weekday.

    Things were going really well, until the inevitable happened…I missed a day.

    This is one of the biggest challenges when it comes to being consistent…and often leads to giving up.

    So, that’s exactly what I’m talking about in this episode…what do you do if you miss a day?

    I talk about…

    The things we say to ourselves

    What it really means, and what it doesn’t mean

    And what to do next

    The power of switching off

    Welcome to another episode of The Smash Your Own Ceiling Podcast.

    Today I’m chatting all about The Power of Switching Off.

    Now, as I’m writing this we’re coming up to a long weekend here in the UK, and switching off has been a topic of conversation for so many of my clients – and I have to say it’s something I see so many people struggling with.

    But there are so many benefits to walking away from the laptop and doing something else.

    So, today I’m sharing:

    – Why you might find switching off a struggle

    – The hidden benefits (yep we’re talking ideas in the shower here)

    – The small things you can do to switch off on a regular basis and acclimatise yourself
