Grab your Keys and Go

There’s something truly special about having that one person you can talk to every single day—someone who just gets you. In this episode, we’re diving into the beauty of deep, nourishing friendships. The ones where conversations never run dry, where you can go from laughing about the small things to diving straight into the deep stuff without hesitation. Friendships like these aren’t just about ha...

You can find Jenni here :  https://www.thefembodimentinstitute.com/ Why is receiving so uncomfortable for so many women?  We’re raised to give—to care, to nurture, to show up for everyone else. But when it comes to accepting support, tenderness, or even a simple act of kindness, we hesitate. In this episode, we sit down with Jenni from the Fembodiment Institute to explore how this conditioning run...

Time—it's something we all wish we had more of , yet it often feels like it slips through our fingers. In this episode, we’re playing with the illusion of time, exploring the balance between looking ahead and staying present in the moment. Some moments call for planning and forward thinking, but if we’re always in the future, we miss out on what’s happening right now. Other moments ask us to...

We’re back with Season 4 of Grab Your Keys and Go! And what better way to start than by diving into new year rituals —the ones that actually stick. In this episode, we chat about choosing a word for the year —a simple yet powerful ritual my family uses to bring intention into everything we do. It’s not just about picking a word and forgetting it by February; we weave it into our decisions and acti...

FINAL EPISODE FOR SEASON 3 xx In this episode, we’re diving into the art of chasing joy and creating moments of celebration in our lives. Inspired by my parents’ incredible birthday celebrations, we reflect on how joy can be found everywhere—if we’re present enough to notice it. Mel and I share how reflecting on the past year helps us uncover moments of joy and gratitude we might have otherwise ov...

Have you ever felt like you’re falling behind? That overwhelming sense of urgency can creep in, making it seem like everything on your list needs to be done right now. It’s easy to get caught in the trap of urgency shaming, where unrealistic expectations and perceived judgments leave us feeling squeezed and panicked. But what if it doesn’t have to be that way? In this episode, we explore the conce...

Did you know that "No" is a full sentence?  Just "No, thank you," without the need for a long-winded explanation. Sounds simple, right?  Yet so many of us struggle to say it with confidence. In this episode, Mel and I dive into the power of saying no—and why it’s such an essential part of self-care.  It all starts with knowing yourself and what’s truly important to you. After a...

So how did we come up with the idea to start a podcast? And is it something that you could do? This flows on nicely from episode 62 last week: Embracing your Zones of Genius as Mel and I naturally loooooove chatting with each other and chatting with other people so it was really a no brainer for us. We fell into podcasting because we love having a good conversation, our hubbies laugh because we wo...

This week, we're diving into the power of working within your zone of genius —the unique space where you feel energized, confident, and impactful.  Here’s the key: not every task in your business needs to be about learning something new or constantly upgrading.  Sometimes, the best move is doubling down on your strengths and creating room for the magic you bring. We explore the importance of...

Have you seen the funny insta reels out there on this topic! I cracked up the first time I heard about Backwards Maths. For some of us backwards maths is no joke! And it can really hurt your head trying to figure out how to make time for all the things to come together, especially when you have to do it backwards! This week, Mel and I dive into the art of backwards planning and why it’s a game-cha...

One man down in our house (yes he is improving) and the painting for the reno's is nearly finished (Phew) When you set up your life as a two person household and one goes down, it's time to get serious with your priorities. And you guessed it, boundaries! So the first thing that I did, was set up my week in a way that would not overload me, but I could still get the essentials done, alon...

I took a leap and decided to book my holidays outside of the school holidays. In the past I have worked one week and taken one week off, but it’s never really a holiday and I knew I needed a bit of down time to myself.  I hear what you are saying, but what about the kids, what did they do all day??? Well I work a few jobs part time, so I had some flexibility already in the holidays, and they are a...

We are super excited to have Lou as a guest on our podcast. She is highly motivated and passionate about her work in the world and in this episode we get to understand how she stays focused on her dream. Lou had been a teacher for 20 years before she dived head first into her vision.  She had tried to bring her vision to life in the school space, but unfortunately they were not ready for her innov...

Let’s talk about that universal challenge we all face—sticking with something consistently. Whether it's exercise, writing, or keeping your kitchen counters clear, consistency can feel like climbing Everest. So why do we struggle? Because it comes down to the why . Why are you doing the thing you’re doing? If your reason doesn't fire you up, it’s tough to keep going. You need that spark...

Yep we are talking about TIME aaaagain! You know why? Because as a mother it can feel like it’s always against us. Even late last night my daughter tells me that she needs to be at school at 8.15am the next day! And so the time manipulation begins. Has anyone seen that reel on instagram where the Mum is doing backwards math? This is my life. Having the activity time in my head, then counting back...

Episode 55.  How the Dishes Keep Teaching Us Life Lessons  Yep, the bloody dishes conversation has reared its head again!! I feel like the dishes conversation is a metaphor for so many things in life! Most noted, is how we deal with things we need to do consistently in life and how to love that we get to do these things daily! I remember doing the dishes at home when I was growing up, and we would...

EPISODE 54.  REORGANISE - Uncover hidden moments of JOY in your day, even when life feels too full. How can I fit the things I love into my life?

But it could also be the way we think about time. Often...

Episode 53.  From Blah to Beyoncé: How Passion Turns Mundane into Magic   How can we get excited about our life!! We do the things we love of course. You know those times when you are feeling flat, tired, bored, lethargic and just can’t seem to get yourself through the day, well that is often a tell tale sign that there is not enough good stuff in your world right now. We gain so much energy from...

Episode 52. Reclaiming your VOICE SOOOOOO passionate about this one! Thinking back on my journey to getting more of the things I love back into my life after having children, I remember it starting with some inner work. I first had to make time to get quiet.  To get the body quiet, to get the mind quiet so I could really listen in to what it was I needed. And part of it was remembering what was im...

Episode 51. REIGNITING Mel and I with our matching T-Shirts (slightly different colours) are reigniting our passion this week for our bodies and starting to invite in what we need to keep them healthy. It’s been a wild ride over the years, since having my children, keeping consistent in the area of my physical body health.   I’ve done the 5am club, I’ve been running, I’ve engaged PT trainers a few...

EPISODE 50.  Reconnecting to Your Values Have you ever thought about why you do what you do?   Why you are drawn to some things in life and not others? Why you can always find the time and money for the things that light you up? It’s because you are living your values.  Values are the deeply held beliefs that guide your actions, decisions, and behaviors. They are the principles that you consider i...

I just loooooove watching people who are committed to their passion. And not just committed, but actually enjoying their passion. Their passion is what gives them energy, whether paid or unpaid. It’s a beautiful thing to witness, and I think it’s what makes the world a better place. As I explain in the podcast, I recently watched the Celine Dion documentary and I could just feel the joy in her bod...
