The Florescence Podcast

Guys! This is the longest I've gone without recording a podcast!!! It's been way too long and so many happy and sad things have happened in my life in the past 10 months. This episode is just a big old yap of euro summer, navigating the loss of both of my grandparents :(((( and then being pregnant with my first baby! Times are changing and it's so important to me to document on these m...

A short but sweet episode about how I'm navigating my faith and spirituality journey! As a born and raised Catholic it's been interesting to witness the similarities and differences of catholicism and christianity. I moved completely away from the Church in my early 20s and instead found myself interested in nature, crystals, oracle cards, plant medicine, astrology and energy work. And I r...

One of my fave topics of all time, and that's because it is one of the first topics I ever chatted about on the podcast back in 2020!! Listen to episode two of the poddy here . If you've been around for a while, you know I've unfortunately had some pretty bad burnout periods in my life and it's taken years to recover from them, and ultimately led to me quitting my job at the end of...

I broke my hiatus of reading personal development books with one of the most popular books atm - The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins. I had heard about the concept prior to reading and I thought it was a cool idea, and then I had the opportunity to read it in our book club. There has been mixed reviews about this book but I really loved it so much! It has already brought SO MUCH PEACE into my life...

This one is for the guys and the gals!! One of my fave chats is women's hormones and our cycles because it wasn't something we were taught at school or by our parents. We live in a man's world on their 24 hour cycles which is not how a women's body works at all, instead we have a 28-32 day cycle that resets every time we get our periods. There are 4 phases within this cycle where w...

I wasn't a runner until I became a runner! I need to preface this, because anyone can be a runner if they want to be! Used to loathe it, now I love it! I don't touch on too much in the episode of what running means to me - but it really has been my lifeline. The state of flow and calm I get to whilst running is so unmatched. I love pushing my body to new limits and seeing what I can achiev...

It's so funny how a silly little book about dragons, fairies and magic can heal your inner child! I remember reading fiction books as a child but I was never a hardcore bookworm, and then at high school and uni I dropped the habit all together because I was too busy reading textbooks. In the last few years, I've found myself lost in fantasy worlds - what kickstarted it for me was the Colle...

Have you ever thought of buying a business? 75M baby boomers will retire by 2030. This is the generation that owns about 2/3 of all businesses. And many of those business owners won't have a succession plan, and so if they don't sell, the business shuts down. I've had my eye on businesses that are for sale in my local area for a while now and I'd love to make it as part of our wider wealth strateg...

It's fair to say that public speaking is hated by most of the population - you're on display, all eyes on you, your hearts racing, and palms are sweaty. Sounds like a shit time to me. Well those are all normal reactions to pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and getting on stage. My public speaking journey starts when I was just 10 years old as Cinderella at my school production, nex...

Our big fish this year is the fact we are going to Europe!! I'm sorry what????? Literally won't believe it until I get there! Living in little old New Zealand means going over to Europe is a once in a lifetime trip, I know we can go back later in life but the holiday will look very different (with kids, or older and luxury) we're never gonna do boujee on a budget again! In this episode...

Helloooooooo it's meeee! I'm back with another chat woohoo. It's been a hot minute and I have a lot to update you all on. Also how is it season 5? Isn't that insane!!! I've been doing this since 2020 and we've recorded over 111 episodes that's nuts and I am so proud of myself! Hosting a podcast is a lot of hard work, iykyk, and at this stage in my life, my podcast acts...

We are baaaack with another guest episode - I had the pleasure of chatting to Isabella Jansen who is a business advisor and coach. Her entrepreneurial journey started in her early twenties, opening two massage clinics, before eventually selling her client base and launching her coaching business!

If you think back to yourself in 2019, and where you wanted to be in 5 years time, is that your current reality? All going well, if you have dedicated your life to one of growth and alignment, you should essentially be, where you once dreamed of.... I was recently reminded in a podcast about how much can change in 5 years - so I took it as an opportunity to reflect on where I was in 2019 at th you...

This episode was so fun to record! I asked ChatGPT to analyse my birth chart with specific questions around my life purpose and the ideal location of where I should settle down. Now I know ChatGPT answers based on a whole load of information and data but it's still so fun to use it as a tool in this way to help me to think about things differently. It's answers have helped me ponder a lot and they...

It's weird calling it a challenge because it's just my life now - but let's recap on my 8-week challenge to lose some weight and heal my gut. I am so proud of myself for what I achieved, the discipline and new habits I created, and the information I educated myself on to ensure I continue to nourish my body in a happy and healthy way going forward. Food truly is medicine and I've never felt so men...

Are you someone who lacks boundaries? Says yes to everything but doesn't actually sit back and think about whether this is something you want or have the capacity to do? In this episode I chat to you about what having no boundaries has cost me, how I learned that I needed them, and what I started doing to implement them. Then I chat a bit about rejection therapy which is something I have seen doin...

It's very common to let ourselves down first before anyone else, and that's because we often believe we don't deserve the best, we put everyone before ourselves and when something has to give, it usually is the commitments we make to oneself. In this episode, we dive deep into the science behind keeping your word, why we do it, and how it leads to a tarnished self-trust. Then we touch on, identify...

So yeah....it's been 6 weeks! Hey guysss!! August and September are notoriously hibernation months for me, it's the thick of Winter, no public holidays in sight, and I'm hanging on by a thread waiting for warmer days. Well we've almost dug ourselves out of this little trough and I'm ready to feel more alive and thrive as we head into Kiwi Summer! Time flies when you're havi...

Hello, my friends - in this episode, I share my financial journey from saving as a child, putting my scholarship money in term deposits, purchasing our first home, investing in shares, and now looking ahead to the future. We've all grown up believing that speaking about money and wanting to earn money is taboo! But we're slowly learning that this isn't the case - and having a plan in p...

I can't believe that it's been a whole ass year since I left on my escapade to Colombia!!! That just blows my mind. Life is flying by at rapid speed, but you all know there is nothing I love more than stopping to reflect. It is a valuable tool in identifying how far you've come - join me in this episode as we reminisce on some of my social media posts from my time in Colombia and I als...

As requested, I have bought the sissy back for round 2! In this ep we discuss our experiences with solo travel, and how we both did it differently. We touch on where our wanderlust originates, challenges and lessons abroad, and advice for those wanting to solo travel, especially for the girlies out there.

And just like that another quarter bites the duuuuust! I can't believe we are in Quarter 3. We have 6 months left to create 2024 into whatever our heart desires. Now that we're halfway through the year, I can confidently say I've been loving the 12 week year. It's an easy way to structure my goals, and it also forces me to reflect and pivot as necessary. In recent years, when I&#39...

Earlier in the year I created my own little 6-week challenge that was achievable, sustainable and fun. After doing 75 hard last year, I realised I thrive and get shit done when I have structure, however, I wanted to spice things up a bit as 75 hard is not sustainable at all. Join me in this episode as I chat about my 6 week challenge, what I learned, what I achieved in that time, and whether it wo...

We're back with another guest episode, which is with one of my besties this time! Johnelle has been on the poddy quite a few times, and we always love recording a podcast to check in on our lives, give you all an update, and honestly to get #realandraw with you. In this long chat (grab a cuppa) we talk about our career progression, shifting identities, managing one million priorities and burno...
