126. My Top 5 Takeaways from Start With Yourself by Emma Grede + What My First Book Club Taught Me

Send Candice a text! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2166241/fan_mail/new] Disclaimer: this is NOT a best bits of the book recap. This is MY top 5 takeaways. Which means you're getting the things that made me nod furiously AND the things that made me raise an eyebrow. Because that's what happened at book club and it made for a much better conversation. Emma Grede is incredible. I also don't agree with everything she says. Both things are true. Here's what we're covering in the episode: * 💰 Why women need to talk about money more - and why I charged $140 a session for my first coaching client because nobody told me * 🚫 Setting boundaries without being a d!ck about it - and the school parents chat story that made me go hmm * ⚖️ Creating YOUR version of balance - this one got spicy at book club * 🏢 Do you actually have to work in the office to be successful? Emma thinks absolbloodylutely.  * 🙋‍♀️ Backing yourself before you feel ready - the one every single person listening needs to hear Whether you've read the book and want a one sided book club moment - or you haven't read it and want to know if it's worth your time - either way you're in the right place. 🎧 If this episode made you think, laugh, or question something - send it to someone who needs a little permission to do life differently.  📲 Screenshot, tag me @candiceharvey__, and let me know what hit home.

125. The Cost of a Bigger Life with Lachlan Stuart

Send Candice a text! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2166241/fan_mail/new] So here's what happened... I was mid-session at a Ray White strategy day - talking about how to achieve any goal you set for yourself - when I spotted someone walk into the back of the room. And I completely lost my train of thought. Because I knew exactly who it was. Lachlan Stuart [https://www.instagram.com/lachlanstuart/]. Endurance athlete. High performance coach. Man who ran 58 marathons in 58 days across all 50 US states and 8 Australian territories. And husband of the beautiful Amy Sheppard. And my immediate thought was - what is HE doing here. Turns out he was speaking after me. Cool cool cool. I jumped on my Instagram stories after my session and mentioned that I'd spotted him and had a minor internal meltdown. He saw the story. And then messaged me to say he felt the exact same way watching me speak. Two speakers. Same room. Both thinking how do I follow THAT person. And now he's on The Shake Up Podcast. So. In this episode Lachlan and I get into the real stuff - what it actually costs to build a bigger life, which part of your life quietly collapses first when you're just ticking along, and why most people are surviving well but living far too small . This one is going to sit with you. I promise.

124. Second Half Starts Now. Shall we set you up for success?

Send Candice a text! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2166241/fan_mail/new] We are officially, undeniably, no-getting-around-it at the halfway point of 2026. And before we go any further, I want to ask you one question. How was the first half?  Not the Instagram version. Not the "yeah good, really busy" version you give people when they ask. The real one. The honest one. The one you say to yourself at 6am when nobody's listening. Because here's the thing - you already know the answer. Somewhere in that gut of yours, you already know exactly what the first half looked, felt and sounded like. So today we're not going backwards. This episode is about what happens next. I'm asking you six questions. Real ones. The kind that might make you a little uncomfortable. I'm also answering every single one myself - live, no script, no filter - because if I'm going to ask you to get honest, I should probably go first. 👉🏼And make sure you download my FREE 90 Day Guide [https://www.candiceharvey.com/resources] to help you turn your insight into action!

123. 1300 days Alcohol-Free: The Things Nobody Tells You

Send Candice a text! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2166241/fan_mail/new] It was 1st July 2016. Dry July had just started. I lasted ten hours. Dad offered me a glass of wine after work and honestly - it wasn't even a hard decision. Dry July was done before it really began. Fast forward to 2026 and I haven't had a drink in nearly 1,300 days.  Three and a half years. And I want to talk about it. Not in a preachy way. Not in a "I've seen the light and you haven't" way. In an honest, real, this-is-what-actually-happens way - because there are things nobody tells you about giving up alcohol.  Things that are hard. Things that are weird. Things that will make you laugh.  This episode is for the people who don't drink, the people who are curious about stopping, the people who've dabbled in giving it a break - and yes, even the people who have zero intention of quitting but want to listen anyway so they can say "see, that's exactly why I still drink Candice." All are welcome here. And also... happy 3.5 years of being alcohol-free to me!!! 🎧 If this episode made you think, laugh, or question something - send it to someone who needs a little permission to do life differently.  📲 Screenshot, tag me @candiceharvey__, and let me know what hit home.

122. You Walk the Walk - But Do You Talk the Talk? With Voice & Communication Advisor Sally Prosser

Send Candice a text! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2166241/fan_mail/new] Yesterday I was standing in front of 70 people in Rockhampton and for the first few minutes? Crickets. And I just kept thinking - I know these people are incredible. They work they do is incredible. So, what was holding them back? That moment is exactly why I recorded this episode. This week I'm joined by the brilliant Sally Prosser - voice and public speaking coach, TEDx speaker, author of Voiceprint, and host of That Voice Podcast. Sally spent years as a TV news journalist reporting for Ten, Seven and the ABC before crossing to the other side of the mic - and she has been helping people find and use their voice ever since. Here's the thing - there's a massive difference between speaking a lot and actually being heard. And so many talented, capable people are quietly losing credibility without even realising it. In this episode we get into meetings, negotiations, influence, and what it actually takes to make people listen when it counts. If you've got a big meeting, presentation or tough conversation coming up - this one's for you. 🎧 Press play. Your voice is worth using well.
