Reclaiming the power of choice - with Anita McKenna In this episode, Anita and I chat about how making simple choices can change your outlook and fortunes in life and business. Anita shares her journey into discovering the power of choosing differently and I also share some of my personal journey through this too.   Anita McKenna works mainly with women who are brilliant at life - but exhausted by it.

Most people aren't stuck — they're just repeating choices they've never questioned.” We tend to think our lives are shaped by big moments, major decisions, or dramatic turning points. But more often, the truth is quieter than that. In this episode of The Becoming You Show, we explore the quiet power of choice — how the small, repeated decisions you make every day quietly shape your identity, direction, and results. This conversation brings the arc full circle: Culture sets the system you're operating within Relationships reinforce familiar identities Internal ROI determines your capacity And choice is the lever that changes everything We'll unpack: Why feeling “stuck” is often a pattern of unexamined choices How identity is built through repetition, not intention The difference between conscious choice and default behavior And how to begin choosing in alignment — without force, urgency, or burning your life down This episode is an invitation to stop waiting for clarity… and start creating it through the choices you're already making.

What drives you? What narrative are you playing out over and over again? Do you know your patterns and how they play out?Knowing your driving force helps you to identify who you best serve and how to show up in your life and business, but knowing that you can always choose to change this narrative is the ultimate result driver.Which begs the question… What happens if we choose to change? What is possible for us on the other side of willingness to evolve beyond the current timeline?

Ever notice how the biggest breakthroughs don't come when you're grinding—but when you finally pause long enough to hear that whisper of inspiration? That's exactly how Patrick Francey, CEO, investor, and host of the global Top 100 podcast The Everyday Millionaire, birthed his show—on a beach in Saint Lucia with nothing but a notebook, a vision, and the courage to execute fast. In this episode of Communication Queens, Patrick pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a thriving culture, scale businesses, and lead with values that don't just look good on paper—but pulse through every decision, every hire, and every courageous conversation. We dive into: Why “high performance comes from low tolerances” (and what to do when a top performer is an energy vampire). The sneaky ways entrepreneurs tolerate themselves out of alignment with their own values—and how to stop. How culture creation applies whether you're leading 50 employees or running a one-woman empire. Why success loves speed—and how to trust divine downloads without bulldozing data. Patrick also shares the single most powerful fork-in-the-road moment that changed his entire entrepreneurial trajectory, plus his belief that the key to success is not just strategy, but the ability to choose who you're being. This isn't just another “how to” business chat—it's a transformational invitation to stop tolerating, start choosing, and build your empire on values that actually light you up.

Peter Baines joined the NSW Police Force at 19 and worked first as a uniformed officer before he transferred across to join the Forensic Services Group and become a real-life crime scene investigator (long before it was cool).Little did he know that decision would change the trajectory of his life.He is now an author, speaker, consultant and the co-founder of an amazing charity called ‘Hands Across The Water'.Peter's work as a forensic investigator took him first to Bali to identify victims following the 2002 Bali bombing that killed 202 people, including 88 Australians.Then 2 years later in 2004 he made his first trip to Thailand to assist with the identification of victims following the Boxing Day tsunami that killed between 250,000 and 300,000 people.In a strange yet beautiful twist of fate, during his third rotation in Thailand, he agreed to raise money to fund a home for a group of children he had met who had been orphaned by the tsunami.And so ‘Hands Across The Water' was born; a charity that now owns and operates 7 homes across Thailand and cares for hundreds of at-risk children.In his conversation, we discuss:- why action leads to clarity and that if you wait long enough you'll find reasons not to do the thing,- the ‘postevent' blues and the struggle with adjusting to ‘normal' life after an experience that shifts your view of yourself and/or the world,- the importance of understanding your measures of ‘success' and making sure they align with your ‘why',- where the idea for the charity rides originated from, and- the impact that bushfires and COVID-19 have had on their fundraising efforts in 2020.

Perhaps the most powerful question you can ask yourself is - what do I need?There is no-one better equipped to help us answer that question than Kemi Nekvapil.Kemi is, quite simply, a force of nature.A pioneer in the raw food movement in Australia, Kemi is now an accredited executive and personal coach.She's committed to helping women like you and I change how we feel about ourselves and how we express ourselves, so we can set boundaries and pursue what we want from life, without guilt or apology.She's also a powerful speaker as those who attended Sparta Chicks Unleashed 2018 will attest.Plus she's a trail and ultra marathon runner. Kemi has completed 11 x marathon distances races, plus a 100km race, the Surf Coast Century, in 2016. So she ‘gets' us!Kemi was my ‘secret weapon' during 2018.  She was my coach for 6 months throughout the year and I can hand-on-heart say Sparta Chicks Unleashed would not have happened if not for her support.In this conversation we discuss:- what an underwear shopping trip at 13 with her fifth set of foster parents taught her a powerful lesson about choice,- how she was able to reach a point of having ‘presence' and unshakeable confidence,- the powerful realisation that led her into executive and personal coaching,- how she discovered running and what trail running gives her,- whether our difficulties with asking for help is the reason so many women (myself included) arrive in our 30s and 40s and realise we've lost a bit of ourselves and we don't know who we are or what we like anymore,- how setting boundaries and asking for what you need in a clean and clear way empowers other people to do the same,- what Kemi would like you to do in 2019 in order to thrive (and also why you're also allowed to pivot once you've decided).

Control is an illusion—but intention? That's where your real power lies. In this episode, I'm sharing a vulnerable reflection on how life threw me off course and what it taught me about creative flow, focus, and letting go of the hustle.If you've been juggling multiple projects, feeling scattered, or telling yourself “I just need to do more,” this episode is your permission slip to pause and choose what actually matters.We talk about:The difference between control and intention (and how knowing that changes everything)Why staying busy feels safe—but keeps you stuckThe surprising freedom that comes from choosing one clear path (just for now)What to do when life pulls you off track—and how to come back with graceIf you've been craving creative clarity and direction, I hope this episode feels like a breath of fresh air. It's okay to slow down. It's okay to change your mind. And it's powerful to choose again—with purpose.Stay Connected: The Print Life Community: https://printlife.io Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/printlifeofficial/

God chose to begin mankind's journey on the earth by giving him the gift of choice. From the Garden of Eden until now, mankind has been blessed with the responsibility of stewarding the gift of Free Will. In today's sermon, Pastor Sam Cabra walks us through the power of our choices and how Jesus set the model for how we steward this gift. Everything we do is ultimately a decision between life and death, and the Lord encourages us to choose life!Thank you for partnering with Reunion Hawaii!

This is part 2 of this week's episode. In this week's episode, we dive into chapters 39–43 of Crown of Midnight by Sarah J. Maas, where destiny begins to tighten its grip on Celaena Sardothien. Armed with 13 years of combined academic literary training, we use two literary lenses to analyze the rich symbolism, metaphors, and imagery woven through these pivotal chapters, including mirrors, portals, Wyrdmarks, and fire. Our guiding question: Has Celaena ever had a choice when it comes to Destiny and the path it wants her to take? From Celaena's chilling encounter with Baba Yellowlegs and her first true glimpse into the multiverse of the Maasverse, to Dorian's growing empathy and Chaol's descent into paranoia and betrayal, these chapters mark a turning point in Celaena's character arc. We unpack themes of agency, identity, grief, and transformation, while analyzing how Sarah J. Maas uses gothic horror, fairy tale tropes, romantic foils, and fantasy lore to shape Celaena's slow march toward who she is meant to become. This episode is perfect for people who love: Throne of Glass literary analysis Romantasy with layered female protagonists Fantasy books about fate vs. free will Witchcraft, Wyrdmarks, and multiverse lore Enemies to lovers, friends to enemies, and broken friendships Symbolism, foreshadowing, and character-driven worldbuilding Dissecting Dorian, Chaol, and Celaena's emotional journeys Share your thoughts for a chance to be featured!
