Chill & Prosper with Denise Duffield-Thomas

Today’s podcast episode is a personal one. I’m talking about ADHD and entrepreneurship - and sharing a bit about my own journey being diagnosed later in life. For years I thought I was just disorganised. I forgot my keys constantly. I always felt behind. And I often felt like everyone else had things figured out except me. Then I was diagnosed with ADHD in my 40s. And suddenly… things made sense....

Let’s shift focus. Today we’re not talking about your money personality, but your customers.  It’s time to look at the type of customers you are and should be attracting and how this might affect your business.  Once you understand more about your customer’s Money Archetypes you can create more impactful marketing and more valuable support and products.  Why do you need to know this? Well, marketi...

Let’s talk about something a little uncomfortable - but incredibly common. Copying other people. Not intentionally. Not maliciously. Just… unconsciously doing things the way your mentors, peers, or industry say you should. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m unpacking where copycatting shows up most often - and how to gently break free from it without shame or embarrassment.

Today’s episode of Chill & Prosper is about something we’ve all experienced at some point. Bad business advice. Or at least… advice that didn’t work for us. Because here’s the truth: there isn’t really such a thing as universally bad advice. What works brilliantly for one person might be completely wrong for someone else. Your personality, your energy, your lifestyle and your season of life al...

Today I’m talking about masterminds, support, and community - what they actually are, when they’re useful, and when they’re not.

One of the hardest parts of running your own business? The decisions. So many decisions.  When you work for yourself, the buck stops with you. There’s no boss to ask, no one else to blame, and sometimes it feels like every decision lands on your desk. No wonder so many entrepreneurs get stuck in analysis paralysis. And this month we’ve been talking a lot about money sabotage, because second-guessi...

One of the biggest reasons people start a business is freedom - and yet so many of us feel less free than ever. Guilty about resting. Scared to step away. Convinced everything will fall apart if we’re not there. And here’s something that might be uncomfortable to hear: when we refuse to take time off, avoid delegating, or feel like everything depends on us, it can actually become a form of self-sa...

Let’s talk about money sabotage. Not in a harsh, “what’s wrong with you?” way - but in a compassionate, this actually makes sense way. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m unpacking the sneaky ways we sabotage ourselves in business and money - often without even realising we’re doing it.

Today’s episode is a little different, but so important. I’m talking about money, business, perimenopause, menopause - and what happens when your body, energy, confidence, and capacity start to change. This isn’t a medical episode. It’s a real life one.

All month we’ve been talking about money mindset habits and creating supportive routines to attract more and grow your business.  But, if you’ve fallen off the wagon with your money habits… don’t worry, welcome to being human. This happens to everyone - especially around this time of year, when January motivation has worn off and life has well and truly kicked in. So in this week’s Chill & Pro...

We’re continuing with our monthly theme of money habits and today I’m sharing some of my monthly habits with money.  I know this might disappoint you a little - but most success doesn’t come from one big moment, one viral post, or one lucky break. It comes from small, consistent habits that quietly compound over time.  In this week’s podcast episode I’m talking about monthly money habits - the one...

Spoiler alert; I’m not in the 5am club, I don’t meditate and I hate cold water! You don’t need a rigid morning routine or constant zen to succeed. Let’s be real - I’ve got 3 kids, a business to run, ADHD and peri-menopause.  So in this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m sharing the real daily mindset tricks I use - the ones that are layered into my life, not forced or performative. 

Let me say this upfront: Your business can be consistent even if you aren’t. That’s not a contradiction - it’s actually the whole point of this week’s Chill & Prosper episode. Today I’m breaking down exactly how I’ve created consistency in my business without working all the time, being “on” every day, or turning my life into content.

So much of how we relate to money today was shaped long before we ever earned a dollar. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m diving into childhood money stories - the subtle, often unspoken experiences that quietly influence how safe, worthy, and capable we feel around money as adults. This is our final topic in Love and Money month and looks closely at how childhood and family relationships sh...

Continuing this month’s theme of Love and Money, in this week’s podcast I’m answering your biggest questions about how money impacts love, partnership, and power dynamics.

Today’s episode might feel a little different - but in a really good way. I’m talking about becoming more magnetic to money… and yes, I know that phrase can sound a bit wanky. Stay with me. This isn’t about pretending money doesn’t matter, manifesting from the couch, or forcing yourself to “love” money. It’s about something much more practical: 👉 your relationship with money.

February is Love and Money month, so this week on Chill & Prosper, we’re talking about something that so many of us wrestle with: how money impacts our relationships.

If you’ve been feeling a quiet nudge that your prices need to change - I’ve got a juicy bonus episode for you to dive into. Honestly, there’s never a perfect time to raise your prices, but there are plenty of good reasons. And if you’re feeling that inner “this isn’t sustainable anymore” feeling… it’s worth listening to. In this new Chill & Prosper ep, I’m talking about pricing - not just from...

January can come with a lot of pressure to feel motivated, inspired, and ready to conquer the year. And sometimes… that energy just isn’t there. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m talking about how to keep the New Year energy going all year - because your motivation will dip, and that’s completely normal.

If you started your business (or life) for freedom, but somehow ended up doing everything yourself… this episode is for you. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m talking about support - not just in business, but across your whole life.

This month we’re talking about upgrades and goal setting and I know this makes some people freeze, procrastinate, or secretly worry you’ll disappoint yourself. So, in this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m talking about incremental upgrades - small, symbolic changes that help you grow without burning out or psyching yourself out.

January can come with a lot of noise. Big goals. New planners. Hustle energy. And a sneaky feeling that if you don’t get it right now, you’re already behind. Let’s opt out of that. In this week’s episode of Chill & Prosper, I’m sharing a much more realistic way to think about goal setting - one that actually works with your life, not against it.

Here’s Our New Plan for 2026. You Need to Hear This. This year, I’m introducing something brand new for our community: a full year of monthly money mindset themes to help you upgrade your money mindset, stay confident, and create more abundance in your life and business. If the past couple of years have felt overwhelming, inconsistent, or energetically draining, you are not alone. That’s exactly w...

As the year wraps up, there’s a lot of pressure to reflect perfectly, plan brilliantly, and magically reinvent yourself by January 1. Let’s opt out of that. In this week’s Chill & Prosper, I’m sharing a very real end-of-year reset - not about hustle or goals, but about permission.

In this week’s episode of Chill & Prosper, I’m sharing what happened last week when I pushed myself too hard, ignored my body, and had to make the heartbreaking (but powerful) decision to cancel plans to see Oprah.
