episode 33: The audacity of being more you - with Libby Duffy artwork

33: The audacity of being more you - with Libby Duffy

Let’s get riskyyyy! Libby Duffy joins me to talk about being audacious and what that really means: taking risks, bold decisions, having the courage to “show off your weird!” We also talk about shadow work, social media overwhelm and how to discover what “being yourself” actually looks like when we’re constantly bombarded by messages on what to be. In this episode, we discuss: * What "audacity" really means and why so many of us struggle to claim it * How to build self-trust without waiting to feel 100% certain * Breaking up (temporarily) with social media * Demystifying shadow work (it’s a lot simpler than we think!) * The trap of trying to become a perfectly healed human * How to "microdose spontaneity" and bring more play into your life * Creating offers that reflect you rather than copying everyone else * Why your weirdness might be your greatest asset It’s time to get a little more audacious, my friends, so that when people talk about how weird you are, you take it as a compliment. This episode will get you started. 🕯️ Connect with Libby: Join Libby’s The Audacity of Her 5-Day Challenge: https://payhip.com/b/Mjk9V [https://payhip.com/b/Mjk9V] On Instagram: @thespellswetellourselves [https://www.instagram.com/thespellswetellourselves/] The Spells We Tell Ourselves [https://open.spotify.com/show/120ZG0Q54KnG9g9vNo103B?si=e6b0d2102c594b8b] podcast 👯‍♀️ Come hang out with me!

episode 32: Are food rules running - and ruining - your life? artwork

32: Are food rules running - and ruining - your life?

We’re all so ready to start breaking those rigid rules around food. Nutritionist Kate Wall unpacks how “healthy eating” can slip into socially acceptable disordered patterns. We explore the patterns of food policing shame and the unhelpfulness of restrictive rules, and what it looks like to eat in a way that actually matches your life. We talk about: * When “healthy eating” becomes socially acceptable disordered eating * The many forms of food policing: external, internal, and invisible * How shame fuels the restrict–crave cycle * Why it feels so exhausting to live by rigid food rules * Moving from food rules to flexible, values-led guidelines * Letting go of morality around food (good vs bad, earned vs burned) * Rebuilding self-trust through small, consistent choices * What it looks like to eat in a way that actually matches your life, not the one you think you should be living * Countering fear-based narratives around ultra-processed foods ❤ If you loved this episode, please Subscribe and leave a 5-star review.

Special Episode: You're not as "bad with accounts" as you think

Let’s do it - let’s demystify the horrors of Taxes... Accounting…. Your bank balance ARGGGG! I’m joined by Clare Marsh who set up an accountancy practice specifically to support women business owners in the UK and to bring proper understanding, support and even a little joy back into our business accounts. Clare brings warmth, clarity and a refreshing dose of practicality to a topic that we often approach with anxiety  and confusion. We talk about why finances feel so emotionally charged, how asking for help (even for what we think are “dumb questions”) is a bloody good thing, and what actually matters when it comes to running the financial side of your business. We get down to brass tacks, and even have a good laugh about: * Clare’s journey from corporate burnout to building a values-led accountancy practice * Taking down the patriarchy by reclaiming control over our business accounts * How we shame ourselves for not knowing everything and why that’s a totally inaccurate, unfair way of doing business * Practical, accessible steps for small business owners who want to feel more in control of their finances * How to start asking for help with your business * Why accountants need support too (and actually don’t know everything) 🎧 When you’re finally ready to take back control of your accounts - and stop letting it feel like such a drudgery - you’ll want to get in on this ep. ❤ If you loved this episode, don’t forget to Subscribe to the podcast and leave a 5-star review.
