Whilst I've shared snippets of our relationship in past episodes, you'll finally hear from the man himself about how we navigate love, growth, and building a life together.   Together, Harri and I answer:   How long have you been together? Are you similar ages? And both into healthy eating and mindset? How deep in conversation did you go on the first date? Did you have any doubts about each other?

Rushing through each day with the feeling that there's never enough time - it might be the ultimate stressor to our nervous system (resulting in overthinking, fear and chronic illness).     It means that even if a woman “gets there” (to the relationship, motherhood, business etc) she's probably burnt out, second guessing her choices, and is unlikely to be enjoying it as much as she'd imagined she would.   Thank goodness we can change this - regardless of your age!   In this episode:   A powerful question to ask yourself when feeling that time is running out or that you don't have enough   How to audit your time and energy output so that you won't feel you're missing out or being left behind   The psychology of self sabotage, procrastination and why you don't put your goals first   Plus more!   Watch my free and on demand masterclass here: Emotion & Symptom Mastery   Learn more about Reveal & Rise and how you can apply here   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com

For a long time, I believed that uncomfortable emotions and chronic symptoms were the problem… and for a long time, I stayed stuck.

A fixation on being in a ‘high vibrational state' might just be as disempowering as using a victim mentality.   Often, being ‘high vibe' requires a woman to reject past pain that is surfacing so it can be let go of - it wants to come up and out of her body.    When she is taught to actively bypass and “stop” anything other than positive emotions, she continues to store that past pain, keeping it stuck in her body (which in turn, means she rejects her inner child's pleads for love) In this episode I cover:   The unnecessary shame women can feel when they aren't able to “get over” an emotion and instantly feel happy or content   Proactively addressing emotions & symptoms so that they heal and there is no longer something uncomfortable to “stop” or “be positive” about   Thinking you're doing the inner work VS actually getting it done   Plus more!   Watch my free and on demand masterclass here: Emotion & Symptom Mastery   Learn more about Reveal & Rise and how you can apply here Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com

I nearly canceled the first date with my (now) partner. In the end, the only reason I followed through and went on the date was because of a promise I'd made myself. Months earlier I'd realised that I was subconsciously ‘rolling my eyes' at parts of the dating process.. (the parts that felt annoying, disappointing or a waste of my time)   And that so long as I kept up this mindset and attitude, I would actually have one foot in and one foot out when it came to dating.. unrealistically hoping for a “perfect”, “seamless”, and “get it done right first go” experience.     The promise I made to myself was that I would show up to the ENTIRE dating process more fully than ever before. In this week's episode I share candidly about how I got that done:   The exact way perfectionism showed up for me in dating (and the hurdle I had to overcome)   The ‘bullshit free' coaching conversation I had with myself 4 things I had to be crystal clear about before I could attract my partner   Plus more!

I was recently reminded, while experiencing the worst flu of my life, of the very first lesson I had to learn before I could heal chronic fatigue, anxiety and depression (a whole lot more physical symptoms too but those were the headliners) and it's this… In the most challenging moments of our life (both emotionally and physically) there comes a fork in the road, and the path we choose to go down will determine whether we heal subconscious triggers that overstimulate our nervous system OR stay stuck in the same subconscious patterns that feel safe and familiar. At this fork in the road we can choose to give ourselves what we NEED (listen to our body and intuition to then make choices that support our real self) or we can cave into a moment of immediate gratification by choosing an impulse behavior (which is when we maintain a coping mechanism that feels like self sabotage) Sounds simple, but it's not, because the coping mechanism is an automated subconscious pattern that has likely been there since childhood and may even take multiple forms.  It also serves the purpose of distracting away from discomfort.  An enormous part of being able to change this is increasing your emotional intelligence, and that's what we I walk you through in this episode:   Where I've been for the last 4 weeks   The difference between your intuition and moments of immediate gratification   The fastest route to achieving the “big picture” in life we want most   How to stop self sabotaging and make the choice that has you progress forwards   3 journaling questions for increasing your emotional intelligence   Learn more about Reveal & Rise and how you can apply here   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com

The answers to your success are not only found in a positive mindset & visualisation of your goals, they are found from intelligently exploring your resistance, self doubt and emotional/physical discomfort too. I'm seeing a common theme that is keeping women confused & stuck when it comes to their inner work…  Toxic positivity coaching - which forces a woman to only look at half of her reality (the “positive” half which is easy to love, get excited about and celebrate), and reject the other 50% (being the “negative” which includes her vulnerabilities and fears).   Strap in my love, together we cover:   How incessant positivity is harmful & the delusional beliefs we have about emotions    Nervous system stress responses in your body that you're probably not even be noticing    Thinking you're doing the inner work but accidentally abandoning yourself instead   5 journaling questions to get to the bottom of procrastination   Plus more!   Learn more about Reveal & Rise and how you can apply here   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com

Perfectionism runs deep.  It's hard wired into our neurology and nervous system as an automated behavior that gets us love, approval and validation.  When we do things perfectly, things feel more certain, predictable and controlled.  When we let go of this exhausting behavior it feels exposing.. that we could be seen as ‘not good enough', ‘lazy', or letting others down (which ramps up our fears of rejection or being misunderstood).   In this episode, we talk about how you can change it:   Doing a proper honest audit of how perfectionism is showing up for you   A brain retraining conversation   Using perfectionism as a coping mechanism to keep yourself calm and safe   Sneaky ways perfectionism is still ruling your choices and behaviors (in your health, relationships and work)   3 clear non negotiables for progressing forwards beyond perfectionism   A weekly ritual for you to implement so that you can start healing perfectionism and controlling behaviors    Plus more!   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com  

This is a conversation that has completely transformed the trajectory of my life - MULTIPLE times! Here's the thing my love: when we are stuck in procrastination, uncomfortable emotions or confusing symptoms (and we've been unsuccessful in changing it) it's important to acknowledge that we're overlooking something.  It's not that we are purposely ignoring something or sweeping things under the rug - but IT IS happening (at a subconscious level) and it's also keeping you stuck.  So it's absolutely an area we need to take an honest look at.   In this episode we dive into:   4 signs you're accidentally using victim mode   Uncovering your big ‘AHA' moments   How to become more empowered, confident and capable    Different ways that fear will hold you back by keeping you “safe”   What is personal power and how to develop your ‘Queen energy'   Plus more!   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com  

What attitude do you bring to your morning routine? Does it have you jumping for joy and feeling alive in your body? Or is it more of a “have to get this done” vibe with a sprinkle of fear about what will happen if you don't?   Here's a common pattern I'm observing in women (and saw in myself in the past too): the use of the same morning routine regardless of what her mind and body are communicating to her.  A pattern that works against her inner work.   Here's what we'll cover together in this episode:   When a morning routine is actually just a perfectionism and self abandonment pattern dressed up differently   The problem with having every inch of your day organised and planned   Strengthening your feminine qualities of: intuition, emotional intelligence, nurturing, creativity and flow   Dating yourself: how and why you would bother   Healing codependent patterns so that you can increase self worth, confidence and boundary setting skills   3 questions to use for more confidence and self trust (instead of your rigid and predetermined morning routine)   Plus more!   Connect with Gemma here daily on instagram, and for more resources head to gemmahanley.com
