You don't have to wait for your circumstances to change in order to feel good. In fact, if you are doing that you are keeping yourself in a perpetual state of disempowerment, with no idea how to truly create a life that feels good.I get that this is a confronting concept. I am a recovering co-dependent. I existed to make other people's lives better. I thought my actions had an impact on the behaviour of people around me. I took responsibility for them, for me - all of it.I thought my life would ...

I'm not sure how long ago it was but some time in the not too distant past, there were a few nutritionists and experts who started REALLY caring about what we fed our kids.To be clear, we've always cared about what we feed our kids but these experts went to the next level. They researched additives, salt, sugar, eating behaviours and the effect of poor nutrition on the development of our kids.One of those people, one of those original pioneers was Francine Bell, the Managing Director of Additive...

If you've been hanging around these parts for a while, you'll know I'm obsessed with stories.The stories we tell ourselves.They're right there under the surface.

Bringing this episode to life is Elton John's I'm Still Standing. It's obviously a timeless classic, but the meaning for me has changed over the years. I used to sing along and think "But how?? How am I still standing with all of this going on?" I relied on my high-functioning tendencies and my ability to 'push through' and thought that I was doing okay. Ummm... thanks, shingles, for letting me know that I definitely wasn't okay! So pushing through is not the message of this episode.These days, ...
