In this episode, we're exploring something I never expected to feel after leaving my business: a sense of numbness when it came to setting goals. For years, so much of my identity was wrapped up in building, striving and chasing the next milestone. Then, almost overnight, I found myself in a place that felt calmer, safer and... strangely unfamiliar. We talk about why that can happen after a b...

The questions we ask ourselves shape the way we think, the choices we make and ultimately the lives we create. But what if we've become so focused on finding answers that we've stopped asking the questions that really matter? In this episode, we're exploring the difference between problem-solving questions and what my coach recently described as living questions – the questions that...

What if we're spending too much of our lives waiting? Waiting for the holiday, the promotion, the weekend, the house move, the next milestone... all while overlooking the life that's happening right in front of us. In this episode, we're talking about why most of our lives are made up of ordinary days, and why learning to appreciate them might be one of the biggest shifts we can mak...

In this episode, we're pressing pause and taking the opportunity to reflect on the first half of the year before rushing into the second. It's so easy to keep moving from one goal to the next without stopping to acknowledge how far we've come, what we've learnt or whether we're even still heading in the direction we want to go. We explore why regular check-ins with ourselv...

In this episode, we're exploring what happens when we spend so much time in our heads that we lose touch with what's happening in our bodies and in turn ourselves.  It's easy to live on autopilot, constantly thinking, planning and analysing, without ever stopping to check in with ourselves. But the more disconnected we become from our bodies, the harder it can be to understand what...

In this episode, we're getting personal. We explore some of the conversations that have been going on in my head as I've navigated the decision to step away from running my business full-time and move into a permanent role. A decision that has brought up excitement, relief, fear, doubt and more than a few opinions from my ego along the way. We talk about identity, attachment to plans, wh...

In this episode, we’re exploring why trying to solve a problem from the same mindset, habits and way of thinking that created it usually just keeps us going round in circles. Whether it’s overthinking, repeating patterns, struggling to move forward or constantly searching for the “right” answer, sometimes the issue isn’t a lack of effort, it’s the lens we’re looking through. This is a conversation...

In this episode, we’re exploring why change can feel so uncomfortable, even when it’s something we say we want. So often, we reach new levels in life, relationships, business or personal growth… only to find ourselves slipping back into old habits, old ways of thinking or familiar patterns that no longer serve us. We get into why our minds and nervous systems are wired towards what feels familiar,...

In this episode, we are talking about whether we’re always actually procrastinating… or whether sometimes things are just still processing beneath the surface. We get into the pressure to constantly be productive, why forcing action doesn’t always lead to the best outcomes and how to tell the difference between avoidance and genuine percolation. There are also a few personal story times (when aren...

In this episode, we are talking about the mental load that builds up day to day and how during stressful or busy periods, even small everyday decisions can start to feel exhausting when your brain is already carrying too much. I share some of the things that have genuinely helped me reduce stress and decision fatigue during busier seasons of life and removing unnecessary choices where possible. Wh...

In this episode, we are talking about vulnerability, authenticity and why so many of us hold parts of ourselves back around other people. I think most people are performing a little bit more than they realise. Filtering what they say, trying to come across a certain way, avoiding being fully honest or keeping parts of themselves hidden because it feels safer - me included. We get into why being vu...

In this episode, we are talking about self acceptance and how easy it is to feel like there’s something about you that needs fixing. Whether it’s how you react to things, your personality, your energy or just the way you are day to day, it’s so common to think you’d feel better or do better if you were a bit different. I’ve definitely been there, trying to change parts of myself instead of actuall...

In this episode, we’re talking about one of the most uncomfortable but powerful truths when it comes to personal growth: if you’re not changing something, you’re choosing it. It’s easy to feel stuck in situations, habits or patterns and tell ourselves we don’t have a choice. But often, what’s really happening is avoidance, fear or waiting for the “right” time to act. We explore how this shows up i...

You don’t feel stressed… so why does your body feel like it is? In this episode, I talk about nervous system dysregulation and what it can look like in real life, from low energy and headaches to poor sleep and that general “off” feeling. Even when your mind feels calm, your body can still be processing stress. I share what was going on for me, the signs to look out for, and the simple things that...

In this episode, we’re exploring how we argue for our own limitations and, without even realising it, keep ourselves stuck. So often, the stories we tell ourselves feel like facts. “I’m not ready.” “I’m not that kind of person.” “That wouldn’t work for me.” But in reality, these are often limiting beliefs that protect us from discomfort, risk and change. We talk about how this shows up in everyday...

In this episode, we’re exploring the idea of increasing your surface area for opportunity and why the most “lucky” people are often the ones taking the most action. Opportunities rarely just appear out of nowhere. They tend to come as a result of visibility, conversations, trying new things and putting yourself in the right environments. The more you show up, the more chances you create for someth...

In this episode we are talking about 'finding your purpose' or in fact not, as the case may be.  Prompted by several recent conversations, there seems to be an overwhelming sense of needing to know your one life purpose and a definite answer to whether or not you should be pursuing and exploring certain paths.  Quite frankly it's BS and I will tell you why I believe that.  If you fe...

In this episode we are exploring observing your own patterns and behaviours and becoming a bit of an analyst of your own life.  It's easy to want to jump to make changes but without observing what needs changing and why we can sometimes feel a bit stuck in a loop.  This isn't about making grand changes... yet, but about just understanding your self talk, habits and behavioural patterns t...

We are finally back! I didn't meant to drop off the face of the earth for so long but life happens.  In this short episode I explain where I have been and talk through the rebrand and repositioning of the podcast and new business. I am always so happy to hear from you with any feedback or requests for future episodes. You can contact me using the below links: Instagram: @nikkki_thrive_co TikT...

In this episode we talk about the power of focusing on what you do want instead of what you don’t. Sounds so obvious but the amount of times we will talk about what we are trying to move away from instead of what we are moving towards and trying to manifest, it’s a completely different energy. How often are you saying what you don’t want instead of really using all your energy to focus on the magi...

In this episode we are talking about the law of assumption, the 'believe' part of manifesting and how really it is the only factor that matters when trying to bring something into our reality and create the life that we want.  This has been so relevant lately as we are going through a house move which shouldn't have been on the cards this early and given all of the 'logistics&a...

Welcome back! It’s been a hot minute. I will disclose where I have been and why I took such a long break. In this episode we discuss what does success look like to you? It’s a question we should all ponder. There is so much pressure these days to have it all or create a life that looks like you do, but in reality, what success looks like to you, won’t be the same as what it is to me.  Changes in m...

In this week's episode we are talking about energy and how yours can be affected by and affect those around you.  It's based on the law of sympathetic resonance, which has been studied at length and states that the power of vibrational frequencies in shapes our reality and can have a ripple affect.  I've witnessed this first hand lately and it has really made me reflect on how I am...

In this episode we are talking about how setting yourself up for success and hitting smaller goals can be so good for your mindset and ability to stick to something consistently and create huge change or learn a new skill. This is actually a lesson I learned from our recent dog training experiences which is weirdly applicable to human psychology and something I realised I hadn’t been so good at la...

In this episode we are talking about something that sounds easy to do but that most of us are pretty sh*t at, asking for help.  How often do we struggle through situations or challenging times, only to come out the other side and realise that we didn't ask for the support we needed. I always thought I was pretty good at this but it turns out I'm not! I bet you aren't too when you li...
