A short solo podcast with some thoughts from the therapy room. So often we want to fix things, especially in our relationship, but sometimes just listening and letting it be and giving that person space is the right thing – have a listen as I explain why it’s sometimes ok to just do nothing.

Listen in as I chat all things relationship with this amazing duo. Having met slightly later in life, they are a vibrant partnership. We talk about their relationship and how long-term and chronic illness is tackled in the mix. What a fun couple to get nosey with 😊

I launch Season 4 with a fabulous fun episode filled with me best girls - Aruna Rao, Ellie Foster and Heide Swift. We have been friends for over 10 years and are all in long-term relationships and mums (some nans as well). I get their take on relationships today, how to keep a long-term relationship fresh and what they think about dating 😊

A great way to get us back into the Relationship Arena!

This week I chat with a dear friend and supporter – my very own Business Manager Ann Little – Ann is currently on a journey many are facing now – to discovering she has ADHD. Ann shares her ah ha moments which led her to research into this area. How it then shaped how she approached her work and how she supports others now in their self-relationship.

Such a fun interview to do 😊

Ann is a Certified Online Business Manager® and proud neurodivergent business owner who has built a life and career by working with her brain, not against it. Discovering her neurodivergence was a turning point — one that brought clarity, self-compassion, and a whole new approach to business and life.

She now supports other ambitious, neurodivergent entrepreneurs to find structure, gain momentum, and grow sustainably — without burning out.

Away from the business, she juggles a full and lively home with her husband, two children, a cat with attitude, and a cuddle-obsessed dog.

I talk to Michelle over in the USA about how she found love... but after almost stepping away as she was told no one would want her due to her ‘disabilities'. We talk, love, ignorance and keeping faith!
