In this episode, we explore the often underestimated power of consistency—how showing up for ourselves in small, daily ways can become the foundation of lasting self-esteem and unshakable self-confidence. Whether you're working toward personal goals, healing, or trying to break old patterns, consistent action sends a powerful message to your nervous system and your inner self: I am worthy of showing up for. Check out the blog, here. We also dive into the role parents play as role models. When children see us follow through—on promises, on routines, on our dreams—they internalize the message that consistency is safe, empowering, and achievable. This episode is an invitation to consider how our habits speak louder than our words, and how consistency can become a radical act of self-trust and leadership in both our lives and our parenting.Tune in for a grounded, encouraging, and real conversation on how to build the life—and the self-worth—you've been reaching for, one small step at a time.Bria Wannamaker, RP.@therapywithbria_www.briawannamakerpsychotherapy.com As always, please remember that these podcast episodes are for educational purposes only and are not a substitute for medical healthcare or mental healthcare.

Ever felt powerless in front of the pantry, like you're watching someone else control the snacks? That creeping shame after a binge is rough. In this candid talk, Lyndsay Soprano sits down with Amber Abila—a woman who's been there, who's been through it, and who found herself on the other side.Amber opens up about her binge-eating journey, peeling back the layers to reveal how dieting, stress, and outdated habits rewired her brain into a food-fueled panic button. She takes us into the real work she did to reset her relationship with food—mindset shifts, self-talk work, mindful bites, and small victories that don't come in bite-sized packaging.Together, they break it down: the difference between real hunger and emotional hunger, the power of speaking kindly to yourself, and how rewriting your food story means seeing your body as an ally—not an adversary.

It's about curiosity, reclaiming trust in your body, and learning that food doesn't have to be the boss of you.Let this episode be the reminder that recovery is possible—even if it feels messy, slow, and confusing.

On this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, I'm joined by a brilliant coach and nervous system educator Sarah Hall, whose compassionate approach to stress and productivity has helped so many women feel more calm, clear, and in control. I am proud to say she is also a former client of mine and so delighted to share her wisdom with you!  In this episode Sarah shares some of her favorite takeaways from our private life coaching together. And we talk about the transformative power of life coaching, particularly in managing stress and integrating personal and professional lives.  Sarah introduces the concept of an intentional stress mindset—a way of working with your nervous system, instead of against it. We explore how our stress responses are often shaped by patterns we don't even realize we're in, and how simple shifts in awareness and preparation can dramatically change our experience. You'll hear us talk about the three core nervous system states—mobilized, shut down, and safe—and how to recognize which one you're in. Sarah also shares how to access what she calls “glimmers,” or moments of calm and connection that help support your body and mind even in high-pressure seasons. This conversation is full of insight, but also deeply grounding. It offers a new lens for understanding your stress—not as something to avoid, but something to understand, and eventually, support. Listen in to learn more about: The three nervous system states: safety, mobilization, and shutdown Four intentional stress mindsets and how they reframe your relationship with pressure How preparation supports your nervous system before overwhelm sets in What “glimmers” are and how to identify them in everyday life Why regulating stress starts with tuning in, not powering through The difference between avoiding stress and integrating it Highlights -   00:00 Introduction to Life Coaching and Stress Management 02:01 Integration of Personal and Professional Life 06:50 The Power of Guided Meditations 10:41 Building Confidence and Following Nudges 12:41 Navigating Life's Challenges 18:36 The Importance of Resilience 22:52 Exploring Time Hacking and Productivity 23:51 Understanding the Role of the Mind in Time Management 34:15 Recognizing Gains in Relationships 35:12 Intentional Stress Mindset 36:12 Understanding Stress Cycles 38:35 Mindset for Managing Stress 40:46 Normalizing Dysregulation 42:19 Identifying Nervous System States 47:19 Supporting and Regulating Yourself 49:56 Proactive Nervous System Support 54:09 Glimmers and Micro Moments 57:42 Following Your Nudges

When we are not being treated well at work its important that we have our own back and cover ourselves, getting things in writing allows us to have in writing different arrangements, agreements and directions. This is important if we are in a situation when someone is trying to twist our words or to make us be seen in a bad light with no evidence. In this episode, I go through different scenarios when this would be useful and how to go about it.  If you would like help or support with this process, you can join my free Facebook community, tradeswomen owning their power, or if you would like 1:1 support or you are a business wanting to make the workplace better for tradeswomen and minorities, you can inquire through my website, louiseazzopardi.com This episode is proudly sponsored by midies.

This week on the Anxious Creative Podcast, I'm getting real about the messy intersection of anxiety and imposter syndrome. I'm sharing my own hilarious (in hindsight) and cringe-worthy experience of quitting my dream job because my anxiety convinced me I was a fraud. We'll dive into the oh-so-familiar feelings of panic, the urge to please everyone, and that deep-seated belief that you're just not good enough. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom! I'm also dropping some hard-won wisdom and actionable tips on how to actually move through these feelings without resorting to hiding, quitting, or those tearful bathroom floor moments.If you've ever felt like anxiety is running your life or that little voice of self-doubt is screaming louder than your ambition, this episode is for you. We'll explore:why taking imperfect action is crucial, how to feel your way through anxiety instead of overthinking it, and why sometimes, the most rebellious thing you can do is disappoint others to step into your own power. Plus, I'm sharing a book recommendation that's been a game-changer for me. If you're ready to ditch the overwhelm and build a business with genuine confidence and integrity, stick around – and maybe check out my free masterclass!Links & Resources:Join Rock Your Business to align your decisions with your goals.Get instant access tp my FREE Masterclass on From   Overwhelmed to ProfitableFollow me: Instagram: www.instagram.com/dawnbradleyYoutube: www.youtube.com/dawnbradley  For more info on RYB, Retreats etc: www.dawnbradley.com
