In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Lisa McFarland — a relationship coach whose honesty, warmth, and deep wisdom will stay with you long after the conversation ends.Lisa shares her personal journey of navigating challenges in her marriage — a relationship that began when she and her husband were teenagers. As life got busier and their connection frayed, they chose to seek help rather than walk away. That decision not only transformed their relationship, but it also sparked Lisa's mission: to remove the shame around relationship struggles and help others build stronger, more conscious partnerships.Together, we explored so many powerful themes, including:Why the quality of your relationships impacts the quality of your lifeThe invisible mental load women carry — and how it's affecting our connectionHow understanding your love languages can shift everything (with partners and kids)The quiet build-up of resentment — and what to do about itHow to reignite intimacy when spontaneous desire isn't there anymoreWhat self-care really means How to know if a relationship is repairable — or notWhy self-awareness is one of the most underrated tools in any relationshipLisa's approach is practical, compassionate, and totally free of judgment — just the kind of perspective I wish we were all taught earlier.If you're in a relationship, questioning one, or simply curious about how to deepen your sense of connection and self-trust, I know this episode will speak to you.

What if the parts of you you've spent a lifetime hiding, the quietness, the sensitivity, the urge to shrink, were never weaknesses at all?In this episode, I share my personal story of how I've navigated shyness over 51 years. From childhood moments that wired me to retreat, to Instagram Lives that stretched every edge of my nervous system.This is the journey of reclaiming a new kind of power, one that doesn't require performance, volume, or perfection.For years, I believed my shyness was something to overcome. Something that made me less than. Something that held me back from speaking, leading, and being seen.But what if the quietness was never the problem?What if the real issue was how the world responded to it?

The Spiel welcomes Anthony Breznican, Vespe's Kingcast co-host and entertainment reporter extraordinaire at Vanity Fair, to talk about Amblin's Innerspace. This weird-ass movie was directed by Joe Dante and produced by Spielberg and is all about a shrunk down Dennis Quaid getting injected into Martin Short's butt and that's just the start of this crazy '80s flick. Bond-esque villains, mini-Kevin McCarthy, a pissed off screenwriter and a who's who of very famous people that almost made this movie. Innerspace is a trip and a hell of a lot of fun to revisit.

This week on Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about the importance of the people we surround ourselves with.As Jim Rohn famously said, “We are the average of the five people we spend the most time with.” If you want to feel good, stay inspired, and move toward your goals, it's essential to be intentional about who you spend your time with.Seek out mentors, supportive friends, and growth-minded people who elevate and encourage you. At the same time, be mindful of those who drain your energy or leave you feeling negative about yourself and the world.We hope there's something useful in here for you.Love, Polly & Lucy xxxTo find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to: https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at: info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/

Whether it be making excuses for why we CAN'T do something, or making excuses for why we CAN do something we know we shouldn't be doing.In this conversation, Polly and I talk about where we make excuses in our own lives - how we can both be professional procrastinators, and also how we're brilliant at reasoning why that chocolate eclair or second glass of wine is, actually, a brilliant idea.

Movies included are D.A.R.Y.L, Inner Space, Clifford, Camp Nowhere, The Indian in the Cupboard, Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead, Star Kid, Strange Brew, Remote and many more.

The presence of Spirit. The presence of Peace.

On this week's Thursday's Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about the stories we tell ourselves - the ones that shape our beliefs, actions, and ultimately, our lives.Many of these narratives stem from childhood experiences, societal expectations, or past failures. While some empower us, others hold us back.But when we take a step back and challenge these stories, we often realise they're not absolute truths—just perspectives we've adopted along the way.The good news? We have the power to rewrite our own stories and create a future that truly aligns with who we are.We hope you find something useful in here.Love,Polly & Lucy xxTo find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to: https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at: info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/

On today's Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about a quote by Howard Thurman which says: “Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive and go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”It may feel like the world is going to hell in a handbasket, but rather than focusing on all the negativity, we can help the world far more by focusing on feeling good within ourselves.Watching the news 24/7, or talking incessantly about the cost of living and the state of politics might make us feel like we're doing something, but actually all this does is reinforce all of the bad stuff, and spread even more negativity.So if you want to help make the world a better place, start by making your own mind a better place to be; because it's happy, joyful, creative people spreading their light who are truly making a difference.We hope you'll find something useful or interesting in here!Love,Polly & Lucy xTo find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to: https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at: info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/

On this week's Thursday's Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about intentionally creating our lives.We have more agency over our lives than we realise, but most of us our unconsciously creating our realities, rather than consciously creating them.So…we need to make a decision to get intentional about what we want our life to look like, and we need to get conscious about how we're thinking and how we're feeling.In the unified, quantum field in which we are all swimming, all eventualities are possible. The question is, which one are we choosing to align with? Which version of our future do we want to manifest? The choice is ours.We need to get clear on our vision for the future, embody the emotions of that future right now, and start taking small steps towards it. When we mentally rehearse our future every day in meditation and through visualisation, we are literally training our brains to find the opportunities, people, and circumstances that will help us get there.Ask yourselves every, single day: what am I going to tune into today? What frequency am I going to align with? And choose wisely…because it matters.We hope you'll find something useful in here!Love,Polly & Lucy xTo find out more about my membership The Inner Space go to: https://www.pollywarren.com/theinnerspaceEmail me at: info@pollywarren.comhttps://www.pollywarren.com/https://www.instagram.com/pollywarrencoaching/
