#464 - Dreaming Bigger, Working Less, with Lulu Wren

Your Dream Life with Kristina Karlsson

Show Notes

Today’s podcast episode is such a special one for me because I’m chatting with someone from our Dream Life Coaching community, the beautiful Lulu Wren. And honestly, after hearing her share her dreams inside one of our coaching sessions, I knew immediately that more people needed to hear her story. What I love so much about this conversation is that Lulu reminds us that creating your dream life doesn’t always mean building something huge or dramatic. Sometimes your dream life is simply creating more space, more freedom, more joy and more time for the things that truly matter. One of my favourite parts of this conversation is hearing how Lulu created her now-famous “Fabulous Fridays” and how those intentional days became the catalyst for an even bigger dream: working just three days a week while still running a successful business she loves. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why your dream life does not need to look impressive to anyone else How small changes can completely transform the way you feel about your life How accountability, routines and community can help you stay connected to your dreams This conversation is calm, honest, inspiring and deeply relatable. If you’ve been craving more freedom, more balance, or simply permission to create life differently, I know you’re going to love this episode. So grab a tea, head out for a walk, or pop this episode on during your morning ritual. I hope it inspires you to start creating more space for the life you truly want. Take this opportunity to learn how to stop replaying the past and start creating momentum again. ...and try my new free Mid-Year Off-Track Check, designed to help you uncover what’s really getting in the way and what your most important next step might be.

Hi there! Five hundred episodes. I can't quite believe it. When “podcast” first came up on my dream list, I straight away thought, I can't do that. English is my second language, I'm not a journalist, and I had never interviewed anyone. I wrote it down anyway, and I started. In this episode, it's just you and me. I share the 12 lessons that have turned my dreams into reality, grouped into what I call the Dream Life Momentum Formula: clarity and belief, courageous and consistent action, and an experienced mentor and a supportive community. As you listen, ask yourself: which of these is strong for me, and which one needs a little love? As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonated most with you - so please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here. Have a wonderful week ...and remember, it all starts with a dream. Enjoy!

Hi there! What would you build if a hard season showed you exactly what was missing? In this episode, I sit down with Jess Armstrong, founder of the skincare brand FUCA. Jess was diagnosed with breast cancer at 35, with a five-year-old and a three-year-old at home, and she started creating FUCA while she was still in treatment. She shares why she couldn't find skincare she felt safe using, or a beauty industry she could see herself in, how many rounds it took to get her first moisturiser right, and how MECCA came on board before she had sold a single product. We also talk about what helped her through the hardest days: time by the ocean, stepping away from social media, and one simple morning ritual. What's the thing you've been waiting to feel ready for?

Hi there! Have you ever finished a podcast episode feeling inspired and ready to change, only to realise a few weeks later that your life looks much the same? In this episode, I'm speaking especially to those of you who have been listening for a long time. I explore why understanding something can feel so much like progress, why the promises we make to ourselves are the first to go in a hard week, and why support isn't a sign you've failed. It's the structure that helps change last. I also share a decision about the future of my Monday Motivation episodes, and why I'm moving that work into a space where inspiration can turn into action. What have you known for years, but never had anyone beside you to act on? As always, I’d LOVE to hear what resonated most with you - so please share and let’s keep the conversation going in the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here.

Welcome to another short but empowering episode of Monday Motivation, giving you a dose of inspiration as you head into your week. Today, I share six words Seneca wrote to his friend Lucilius about two thousand years ago: while we are postponing, life speeds by. Three key takeaways: Why postponing rarely feels like postponing - from the inside it looks like good judgement How time "speeds by" - not while we wait, but when we look back One tiny action for this week - the smallest possible piece of the thing you keep putting off You don’t need the whole plan today. Just do one small piece of the thing you’ve been postponing, and notice which side of the line you’re standing on. I also share details of my free online workshop, Start Before You're Ready, on Tuesday 29 September at 7pm AEST. You can register here.

Hi there! What is the dream, project or change you keep telling yourself you will begin when you feel ready? In this episode, I explore the quiet cost of waiting. It can feel sensible to research, prepare and promise ourselves we will start when life settles down, but readiness rarely arrives before action. Clarity comes from moving. Inspired by Oliver Burkeman's book Four Thousand Weeks, I share why the number of weeks in an average life is less frightening than it sounds and far more clarifying, and why having support around you matters so much when motivation fades. I also share details of my free online workshop, Start Before You're Ready, on Tuesday 29 September at 7pm AEST. You can register here. What could you start before you feel ready?
