In this conversation, we talk about Janel's journey to finding her passion, her experiences working with clients and what she has learnt about the power of language when looking to build relationships with others. I know there are going to be so many great nuggets of insight that you can take away and bring into your everday relationships. whether they be personal or professional.

There's a strong chance that in your life you've had a brush with burnout, but the likelihood is you've put it down to other factors. Burnout is something that creeps up on us and, without better understanding of it, can be something really detrimental to our mental wellbeing. In this episode, I'm joined by Flic Taylor, a subject matter expert in burnout. Not only is Flic a complete bundle of energy, she is a coach, mental health writer and the host of the podcast 'Everyday Burnout Conversations'.

EP 4 - A Singer's journey of self discovery, moving to Colombia with Oli Warren Garcia

Oli Warren Garcia is a singer and brand social media expert living in Colombia. During our conversation, Oli showed extreme bravery through vulnerability when sharing his story about his transition from living in the UK to Colombia and the challenges he faced. Oli shares that during the last 3 years, there have been times that have challenged the very fabric of his being, but this has sent him down a path of self discovery and self work, that has allowed him to uncover parts of himself and life he's never experienced before. I really enjoyed this conversation and feel like it is full of life and realness. I hope you find this conversation insightful.

EP 3 - My ACL injury

This week, I share my experience through my ACL injury. I talk about not only the tough physical toll an ACL injury has, but the emotional and mental one as well. During the time that I was injured, there were so many challenges to overcome and in the podcast I explore with you how I came to recognise these challenges and move through them, more often than not with the love and support of those around me. I really hope you enjoy this different styled podcast and that you can take something away from it! @canibeopen on Instagram For mental coaching and therapy resources I've found helpful @balanceyourbrainltd - Jon Skelton on Instagram @nickedgarcoaching - Nick Edgar on Instagram
