    Do you ever feel you're different from other women, because you just don't enjoy big parties or events? Wondering why you're not excited when invited to a party or BBQ? Fed up with freaking out and missing the event when others are excited to have a good time? If you feel lonely because you're staying home rather than going out, you may think it's because there's something wrong with you. The time comes for the party and you just want to stay home and watch your favourite show. But if you keep staying at home and not socialising, you'll stay lonely and isolated I've been coaching women over the last 5 years, and one thing I love is to help women like you to overcome the social isolation. Join me as I tell you about a client who struggled with going out. ANNOUNCING TODAY: I'm opening up 4 spaces in my Shy to Shining program in November, and 4 spaces in December.

    Do you feel the tension? When you pause, do you feel it? Like you're always busy? Always on the move? Like you're in a race, rushing towards an unseen goal, and you don't even know where you're going? You feel that life is whizzing by. That there are so many expectations and demands from all angles. That you're expected to be a successful career woman, a caring and supportive Mum, a sexy and attentive partner, a helpful daughter, a fabulous friend, and a social media star – all the while running the household smoothly (shopping, cooking, paying bills, washing, cleaning, tidying) ... Woah! And yet, I deeply believe that your one precious life is not meant to lived running on a treadmill, feeling exhausted but pushing on regardless. I believe that it is possible to live with joy and ease, with humour rather than frustration, with flow rather than stress, with lightly held structure rather than overwhelm.

    When someone invites you to go out , how do you feel? Are you excited to be going out? Or did you actually enjoy the pandemic as an excuse to say no to certain invitations? Nowadays, most people seem to have stopped worrying about covid. And so the social invitations have started flowing again. And that will only increase as we get closer to the festive season. So I wonder – how are you reacting to that? If you're struggling to re-engage socially, I have great news for you. You're not alone. In fact, it's so common that there are many psychologists around the world researching this very phenomenon. Join me today, to get some clarity and then to wind down to the weekend with compassion.

According to the research, many people are not connecting to family and friends the way they used to, and this sense of disconnection can cause you to feel lonely or flat.

    Welcome to the Weekend Wind Down, a time to slow down, let go of stress and frustration, embrace compassion and calm, and get ready for the weekend. But first, our hot tip for the week: How are you feeling right now? So many people I speak to are feeling exhausted! Some are struggling with a lack of motivation. Some are feeling anxious. Many are ready for a holiday or any sort of break. I can't give you a holiday in a podcast, but what I can share is a morning routine which is really helping me to keep going, despite the tiredness. And that's my Miracle Morning routine. Here's the link if you want to look into this yourself: https://miraclemorning.com/ Imagine starting each day with positive thoughts about yourself and your life. Wouldn't that help you start the day with a smile? Listen to find out more. Wishing you a wonderful week! Carolyn
