In today's Pep-Talk I decided to dive into the juicy topic of identity and the roles we wear in life - at home, work, in our relationships, in community. Sometimes these roles serve us - allowing us to interact with the world in ways that make us come alive. But sometimes they don't. And when we find ourselves going through transitions in our lives, often what you'll find is that at the core of it we are shedding old identities that no longer serve us and stepping into new identities that make us feel more aligned, connected and alive. And so today I wanted to invite you to take a deep dive with me into the roles we play in life and how to start consciously choosing the roles we wish to play more - and the roles we don't.

Oh my goodness, what a gorgeous few days it’s been since launching the tenth Goodbye, Hello journal! Thank you for all the love and support - it has meant so much to me.
This Thursday is a momentous occasion in my world {{ subscriber.first_name }} because it's when the 10th edition of the Goodbye, Hello journal, Goodbye 2026, Hello 2027, will be released into the world! 🥳 TEN editions! I honestly can’t quite believe it.
Two weeks ago I emailed confessing to being in a September tailspin. I wasn't so much embracing that back-to-school energy as I was being dragged 100mph by this year's fire horse! 😂 And despite offering up seven steps to help us all step into September with a little more intention and a little less panic, it turns out one attempt at reigning myself back in wasn’t quite enough! And before long I was having another word with myself: This way of working was not sustainable. I needed to find another way. So in this week’s pep-talk I'm sharing what I've been doing to hit the reset button, slow this fire horse down and get back control - of my energy...and my sanity! And finally it IS working. So, if you're finding yourself sucked into the urgent rush of life with your own inner sergeant major shouting out you to 'not stop' and 'go faster', then hit play on today's Pep-talk and let's get you hitting that reset button too!

This week we arrive at the midway point of the year. For those of you with a Goodbye 2025, Hello 2026 journal it is time to open it up and do your Quarterly Check-in - and if you want to add an extra layer of depth and inspiration to the experience, come and join me and other Goodbye, Hello fans in the Project You Club, as we do it together tomorrow evening (UK time) here. But before we get into the dreaming and planning - that this halfway point of the year is so perfect for - I want to invite you to sit in the messy middle with me. Sit with the aspects of your life that don't feel so great at the moment. The areas where you might feel lost, upset, confused, untethered. And instead of rushing to fix any of it, simply sit with it. Sit with the uncertainty, the discomfort, the unanswered questions. Let it be messy. Because sometimes, it's only when we stop trying to escape the messy middle - and instead simply sit with what is - that the path we're supposed to be on can finally emerge. 🎧 Hit play on today's episode and explore why things need to unravel in the middle of any journey and why trying to fix it too fast can be the very thing holding us back
