Seeking Simplicity is a podcast for women navigating the seasons and cycles of life, liminal spaces and personal transformation and reinvention. Through soulful conversations, and thought-provoking insights, we explore how to release the pressure to constantly do or be more. This is your space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and embrace the power of simplicity. Because sometimes, the answers we seek come when we stop searching.

Episodes

Overwhelm, Excuses, and What to Do When You Want to Quit 08.07.2026

In this episode, I dive into the exhausting and damaging effects of the start-stop cycle in business, especially for women entrepreneurs. The conversation focused on why we keep getting stuck in this loop, how it impacts our self-concept, and what it really takes to break free from it. One concept discussed was how commitment doesn’t happen in the decision itself, but in the consistent action that...

Hitting Neutral: The Skill Every Business Owner Needs 30.06.2026

Welcome back to Be More Lobster! In this episode, I dive deep into an emotion that doesn’t get nearly the credit it deserves in business: neutral . I believe that the ability to access a neutral state—on command—is an absolute game-changer for entrepreneurs, especially when it comes to taking action and moving forward (even when your emotions are all over the place). Here’s what you’ll learn in th...

STOP settling. Ask for what you actually want 23.06.2026

In this episode, I dive into the topic of asking for what you truly want—without limitations or shame. I share a powerful exercise I recently took my one-to-one clients through at a retreat, exploring why so many people find it difficult to confidently declare their desires. I reflect on how, despite my invitation for clients to share what they wanted from the retreat, not one person responded—and...

Why tough times can actually help you WIN! 15.06.2026

In this episode, I dive straight into the topic of challenge —not just talking around it, but meeting it head-on. The conversation focused on how challenges and obstacles aren’t just hurdles or roadblocks; they can be reframed as the very fuel that ignites our ambition and growth. One concept discussed was the idea of "the pinch"—those moments of pressure and discomfort where real change...

Slow down to speed up 08.06.2026

In this episode, I explored the topic of pressure and how it shows up for entrepreneurs and business owners. I explained why I named this podcast Be More Lobster —because lobsters know that the pain of outgrowing their shell is simply a sign it’s time to grow, and not something to fear. The conversation focused on: The different ways pressure manifests in business—whether it feels like the need to...

The shell got tight - why Seeking Simplicity became #BeMoreLobster 31.05.2026

Episode Highlights From Seeking Simplicity to Be More Lobster: I reflect on the podcast’s o...

The reason you don't take the action you need to 31.05.2026

Welcome back to the Be More Lobster podcast! In this episode, I dive into the concept of why sometimes having no result can actually feel safer than putting yourself out there and risking possible failure. I open up with a client story and ask you to reflect: Have you ever had one of those mornings where you know exactly what needs to happen, but you end up feeling too tired or "off" to...

When You Lose Direction: Harnessing Liminal Spaces 31.05.2026

Welcome back, listeners! In this episode of Be More Lobster, I dive deep into the season of life when you just don’t know what’s next—and maybe don’t even care about finding out. I explore what it means to lose momentum, vision, or direction, and how for action-takers and growth-driven women, that uncertainty can feel incredibly uncomfortable and even wrong. You’ll hear me share my personal journe...

You sabotage because success doesn't feel safe 31.05.2026

back from true growth and satisfaction, both in business and life. Here’s what you’ll hear about in today’s conversation: Topics Covered Upper Limit Problems: I explore how we unconsciously sabotage our own progress by creating chaos or letting go in other areas when things start going well. Emotional & Somatic Capacity: Discover why it often feels unsafe to expand and why our minds and bodies...

Who You Are Drives What You Create 31.05.2026

Welcome back to the Be More Lobster podcast! In this episode, I dive deep into the real starting point for creating change—not by doing something different, but by being someone different. I share my personal 5S Formula for personal transformation, which is foundational for achieving results more quickly, with more fun, and less stress. What You’ll Hear in This Episode Why "be someone differe...

Rewilding Yourself Between Who You Were and Who You’re Becoming 19.11.2025

"You’re Not Unmotivated — You’re In Between Identities" If you’ve been feeling like you can't or don't want to take action (on things you used to do without thinking about it), unmotivated, or just not yourself — this episode is for you. Not in a "fixy" kind of way.. instead i'm here to offer you a way to reframe it all. What if your low energy isn’t a problem......

Becoming Someone New: The Art of Conscious Identity Change 12.11.2025

In today’s heartfelt solo episode, I invite you to reflect on the stories you’ve been living by—the ones that shape how you see yourself, what you believe you’re capable of, and ultimately, the results you create in your life. We dig into the idea that your story isn’t really about who you truly are, but rather who you’ve been up until now. These stories are often inherited from family, society, c...

Doing It Differently: Ambition That Honors Your True Self 05.11.2025

 In this gentle and honest solo episode, I'm exploring what it really means when old versions of ambition stop fitting and something deeper starts calling. I open up about the quiet unraveling many women experience when the non-stop chase, hustle, and performance-based success lose their appeal. We sit with the truth that perhaps our ambition hasn’t disappeared—it’s simply evolved. Let’s reth...

New Season, New Standards: The Real Path to Self-Trust 29.10.2025

You are NOT failing You are EVOLVING The promises you made in a different season of life may no longer fit the woman you are now. This episode explores what it really means to rebuild self-trust—not by tightening your grip, but by listening more deeply to what’s true for you now. This micro episode is full of mic drops - like  how to move from guilt and frustration into ownership, how to recognise...

Busy Life, Big Joy: Simple Ways to Feel Good Today 22.10.2025

During this cosy micro episode, I dive into why so many of us have been conditioned to believe that joy is something we have to earn—a reward for completing the never-ending to-do list, or something we only allow ourselves to feel once everything (and everyone) else is taken care of. I open up about my own journey, from building my self-worth through endless productivity, to finally realising that...

Rewild Your Routine: Easy Ways to Follow Nature (and Yourself) 09.10.2025

  During this soulful solo episode of Seeking Simplicity, I invite you to reflect on the power of living in tune with your own natural cycles and the deeper rhythms of nature. Together, we explore the idea that we are not designed to be in constant “go mode”—that embracing our seasons (both internal and external) is an act of self-honouring, not failure. I open up about a recent personal loss and...

Closing The Loops That Drain Your Energy 24.09.2025

  Do you ever feel mentally cluttered—like part of your brain is always running in the background, nagging you about what’s unfinished? Those are open loops : incomplete thoughts, undone tasks, or unresolved emotions that keep pulling at your attention. In this episode, I explain the MindBody impact of those open loops, why they make it hard to focus, and how to close them so you can feel clearer,...

Cause and Effect: The Game-Changer You’re Probably Overlooking 17.09.2025

  What if you could anchor your entire life around three guiding principles that change how you think, feel, and choose—every single day? In this episode, I share the transformative impact of Cause & Effect , Perception is Projection , and Every Word, Thought & Deed . These aren’t just great sounding concepts—they’re daily practices that create radical self-leadership and long-term change...

Why fighting reality only makes life harder 10.09.2025

  It's easy to feel like you're "fighting life". Especially when you are in hard times. But when we fight, we resist and "what resist, persists" right? PLUS.. when we are putting the focus outside of ourselves, we're now not in the power to change anything. I get it. In this episode I share part of my own journey of moving from resistance and wishing things were...

Not all progress is loud 03.09.2025

  On today’s episode I invite you to journey with me into the realm of invisible work—the quiet, often unseen inner shifts that shape the most profound change in our lives. I explore why not all progress is loud, and how the subtle transformations we make behind the scenes are, in fact, some of the most powerful. I share from my own practice as a certified High Performance coach, blending Somatics...

Why the words you use REALLY matter 20.08.2025

The words you use are SO much more than language, they create spells. Spells that determine what your life looks and feels like. In this short and potent episode, I ask you to see what happens when you become more conscious of the impact and effect of your language - especially when it comes to the words we use with ourselves. And it begins with this question. Is it sacrifice or investment? You se...

How to Secretly Rest Your Nervous System 13.08.2025

    In today's episode, I open up about my own journey with nervous system dysregulation—how it showed up as a constant, underlying sense of unsafety in my body, confusion, emotional overwhelm, and feeling utterly lost.  I share how I thought that it was a symptom of grief and the associated PTSD and how shocked I was to learn that perimenopause, which I had initially dismissed as “just hormo...

Self Judgement Truth Bombs 06.08.2025

  In this honest episode, I invite you to explore the often-painful topic of self judgment—the kind that seeps into our skin, weighs us down, and keeps us locked out of our own innate wisdom. I share from my own journey—years spent in deep self criticism, the endless comparison, and how I finally stepped off that exhausting podium. Together, we look at self judgment through a gentler lens. Why do...

You Can Only be Triggered if You're Holding The Ammunition 30.07.2025

Listening to Triggers: Your Hidden Pathway to Transformation Welcome back to Seeking Simplicity! In this episode, I'm sharing a deeply transformative experience with you. I've been on a seven-day intensive training that revealed powerful truths about personal triggers and the beliefs I was holding on to that created them.
