Practicing the skill of COMMITMENT will change your life! When's the last time you showed up fully committed to making something happen in your life? Closing the escape routes. Betting on yourself. All, in on all in? Stopping at nothing until you get there? Did you get there?We have gotten so used to wishy washy "maybe" "if I feel like it" "that sounds nice" "we will see what happens" energy. But that is not the way to create our grand vision.Sure, commitment takes practice, discipline, focus, integrity, worthiness. Knowing when to take action and exert effort and when to ease up and surrender.And when we finally show up, create and receive what we truly want, isn't it always worth not giving up? Serve the commitment, and then the commitment serves you. The best way to predict the future is to create it. This episode is all about DIGGING DEEP - for determination, perseverance and GRIT. Featuring 3 previous podcast guests: Lynne McTaggart Giovanni DienstmannAnthony TrucksTimestamps:00:00 The #1 mindset shift that will lead you to success02:27 How committed are you?07:19 The INCREDIBLE Science Behind the Law of Attraction11:34 The #1 thing to need to achieve your goals!15:16 Drown out the self-doubting inner voice with THIS17:21 From Foster Child to NFL Player: Finding Self-Worth and Confidence18:51 PS: Do it UGLY.

New Year is the time when we often get reflective about CHANGE. Setting new goals. Shifting our behaviors. Taking new actions. But do you know what is even more important than that? Shifting your identity. Our expert guest on the show is identity shift coach, podcaster and best-selling author Anthony Trucks.  Prior to being a successful business owner, Anthony had to undergo his own identity shift. Growing up in foster care, Anthony lived with six different families by the time he was six years old. Statistically, he was more likely to end up homeless or in prison than in the NFL — and certainly, no one expected him to be a published author inspiring thousands on stages around the world. The lesson? You can't overcome your circumstances until you change your identity. So what identity shift do you need to make in 2024?In this episode we discuss: 00:00 Changing Your Habits Starts With This 01:36 This Is Why You Self-Sabotage 06:08 Consistent Action To Challenge Your Identity 10:35 From Foster Child to NFL Player: Finding Self-Worth and Confidence13:39 What Underlying Beliefs Are Stopping You From Leveling Up?15:37 Why You Need to Separating Emotions and Actions 19:41 The Secret to Getting What You Want25:30 Finding The Courage To Do Things Differently27:48 The Reason Why You Should Do HARD Things   31:46 Developing GRIT, Self-Discipline & Becoming An ACTION Taker34:55 How To Handle Failure to Succeed Better! 45:44 3 Steps To Shifting Your Identity If you've been a long standing listener of the show and would like to express your gratitude and support the continuation of high-quality weekly content, please pledge your support on Patreon. Lastly, come and say hello on socials!

What if you could reshape your future to get exactly what you want out of life? While it may appear idealistic, the influence of our thoughts, beliefs, and experiences on our future is profound. By consciously pursuing our goals, shifting our mindset, and nurturing a deep understanding of the realm of possibilities, we can initiate the process of manifesting the life we truly desire.This is hands down one of my FAVORITE episodes to date with the brilliant Lynne McTaggart who proves that the law of attraction is REAL and that you can shift your thoughts to shift your reality. Lynne McTaggart is an award-winning journalist and the author of seven books, including the worldwide international bestsellers The Power of Eight, The Field, The Intention Experiment and The Bond.

This is an episode for blokes, most especially for blokes who are close to perimenopausal mayhem. I had a chat with my old friend Kenny Mammarella D'Cruz, aka  The Man Whisperer, who has instigated hundreds of men's groups across the country. Daily Express described me as a "coach, consultant, and guru of all things men" Kenny and I talked about: How men deal with loneliness and painMen allowing vulnerabilityMen allowing connectionHow to communicate with their perimenopausal partnersThe possibility of both partners in a heterosexual relationship are transforming at the same time About legacy and elderhood and death Plus my all-time favourite quote ever from a man about postmenopausal women, I won't spoil the surprise but it's very, very good. The course Kenny mentions in this episode is an online training on how to listen so men speak and how to speak so men listen for therapists, coaches, care-workers, anyone and everyone who wants to pick up these tools for daily life.

Jessica Willis Fisher is Americana singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and author of a bestselling memoir “Unspeakable: Surviving My Childhood and Finding My Voice”. Jessica is the eldest daughter in a family of 14 which was headed by an extremely controlling, abusive, violent and domineering father who is now serving a prison sentence of 40 years on 4 counts of child rape. The darker reality was far from the wholesome All-American Christian musical family persona depicted in their reality TV show or their stint on America's Got Talent. But Jessica found the courage to find her voice, share her story and do deep healing work; some of which has been channeled into music and her critically acclaimed debut solo album “Brand New Day”, a song of which is played at the end of this episode.We also discuss:Jessica's childhood abuse & her father's arrestNarcissism, sociopathy, cults, high control groups Healing from trauma & getting out of survival modeJessica's husband & the remarkable power of love in healing Moving forward & post-traumatic growthAre we friends on socials yet?

Have you ever struggled to explain to the men and non-menstruators around you what you need in your menstrual month? Or why you might seem to be an entirely different personality week on week? My friend Alyx Coble-Frakes did, and her experiences of frustration have resulted in what is to my knowledge, the first book about periods specifically written for cis-men.    Alyx Coble-Frakes is a passionate social entrepreneur. She has 10 years of experience in business and 8 years of experience working in health and wellness. When she returned from the Peace Corps in 2015, she felt out of touch with her own health, so she began a path of healing. This led her to launch a health coaching company and, subsequently, the app The Agenda Period . She has recently authored a book called “Manstruation” which is opening up conversations around periods with men.We chatted about: What non-menstruators need to know about periodsHow they can support the people around them (and not just when they are menstruating!)How Alyx wrote her new book in just 6 weeksHow Alyx discovered the power of cycle syncing The problem and lack of safety with most period tracking appsThe surprising power of celebrating your first period in retrospectHow Alyx shifted away from perfectionism to self-compassionAnd much more!Free sign up for Manstruation a field guide https://mailchi.mp/theagendaperiod/vjrwgryv9pInstagram https://www.instagram.com/theagendaperiod/Website https://www.theagendaperiod.com/ More information about Katehttps://www.katecodrington.co.uk/Instagram @kate_codringtonSecond Spring: the self-care guide to menopause is available from your favourite bookshopMusicTrust Me (instrumental) by RYYZNCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / StreamMusic promoted by Audio LibraryArtworkKate's portrait by Lori Fitzdoodles

My guest today is a proper badass hag.  Jane Hardwicke Collings is a grandmother, former homebirth midwife for 30 years, a teacher, writer and menstrual educator. She gives workshops on mother and daughter preparation for menstruation, the spiritual practice of menstruation, and the sacred dimensions of pregnancy, birth and menopause. Jane founded and runs The School of Shamanic Womancraft, an international Women's Mysteries School.I wanted to know how to be a fab elder, or hag or crone because there really aren't so many positive role models or much signposting. We discussed:o   What menopause taught Jane about being an elder. o   The importance of owning our language and how we name ourselves: hag, crone, elder, wise womano   How to balance following your passion with caring for being in an ageing body. o   How can we protect against the mental effects of ageingo   How do we counteract the miserable narratives about older womeno   What Jane wished she had known in her 40'so   How Jane's relationship with death illuminates her day-to-day living You'll notice in the conversation that though we both use a seasonal structure as a map for life, Jane and I do this differently. Jane sees one cycle through the seasons with the end of Winter announcing death, and I see two cycles, with a Second Spring starting postmenopause.

Exploring how we can come to terms with the end of biological fertility and how creative fertility changes postmenopause. You'll hear five different women, all in different circumstances and each story just blew me away. There is so much courage, healing, endurance and resilience in this coming to terms and I hope you'll feel as inspired as I was.  You should know though, that many of life tragedies are discussed in this episode including baby loss, sexual abuse and suicide so if you're having a fragile day of it, maybe come back to this episode later. Some of the interviewees wished to stay anonymous so they could speak more freely about their experiences, but they do include:Katie, a postgraduate literature student and farm handGinge Unhinged aka Victoria Hardy – author of My menopause, My Journal, My Rules https://www.instagram.com/ginge_unhinged/Marian, who lives in South LondonWildflower, who helps women get back on track after pregnancy loss and reclaim their creative power so they can move forward with joy and purpose. https://peaceafterpregnancyloss.com/  Julia (Jools) Voce, a creator, a performing and healing artist, writer, clown, activist and childless/childfree mother based in Brighton and the South Downs.More information about Katehttps://www.katecodrington.co.uk/Instagram @kate_codringtonSecond Spring: the self-care guide to menopause is available from your favourite bookshopMusicTrust Me (instrumental) by RYYZNCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / StreamMusic promoted by Audio LibraryArtworkKate's portrait by Lori Fitzdoodles

Decent and Rising: women's stories and the embodiment of the Innana myth is a book for anyone who has ever felt lost, a failure, that they're getting sucked deep into dark places that most people would regard as mad. Written by Carly Mountain, a psychotherapist and women's initiatory guide, who specialises in working with sexuality, relationships and embodiment. The book is published by Womancraft and I just loved it. I first came across this story through Angela Farmer, who you'll remember from this earlier episode https://www.katecodrington.co.uk/angela-farmer-on-life-an-inside-job/ but Carly takes it to a deeper level. Last week I was lucky enough to have a conversation with Carly about this deeply layered myth and how we can use it to navigate and better understand the dark times of our lives. You can pre-order your copy from Womancraft at https://womancraftpublishing.com/product/descent-and-rising/  and find Carly at https://carlymountain.com/ on Instagram at @carly_mountain https://www.instagram.com/carly_mountain/More information about Katehttps://www.katecodrington.co.uk/Instagram @kate_codringtonSecond Spring: the self-care guide to menopause is available from your favourite bookshopMusicTrust Me (instrumental) by RYYZNCreative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0Free Download / StreamMusic promoted by Audio LibraryArtworkKate's portrait by Lori Fitzdoodles
