You are running out of time."The panic of the "New Year" sets in. You feel the pressure to write a list of resolutions that involve starving, sweating, and hustling your way into January.Stop.Welcome to Day 4 of our Holiday Decompression. Today, we are silencing the Inner Critic and rejecting the toxic "Hustle Culture" of January. instead, we are embracing the Soft Life.In this 10-minute guided session, we will:Confront the Critic: Acknowledge the voice that says you need to be "better" or "more productive" next year.Turn Down the Volume: Visualize a mixing desk where you can manually lower the fader on your self-doubt.Shift to Soft Goals: Replace rigid, punishing resolutions with intentions based on ease, flow, and kindness.Visualizing 2026: See the year ahead not as a mountain to climb, but as a river to float down.You do not need to "crush" 2026. You just need to live it.Support the Podcast: If this anti-hustle approach resonates with you, please subscribe and leave a review. Let's start the new year with kindness, not pressure.
In this episode of Classy & Sassy, I'm closing the year differently.Instead of waiting for January to figure things out, I'm sharing how getting clear before the year ended changed my stress level, my energy, and the way I'm entering the next season. We're talking about what I'm leaving behind, what I'm intentionally carrying forward, and why clarity doesn't need a clean calendar to exist.This conversation is about ending the year on purpose; without panic, pressure, or “new year, new me” nonsense. If you're tired of unrealistic timelines, last-minute resets, and forcing motivation, this episode is your permission slip to move forward calmly, confidently, and on your own timeline.Soft, reflective, and grounded, with just enough sass to keep it real.Send us a text
This year didn't go as planned… and that's okay.In this soft wrap-up episode of Classy & Sassy, I'm reflecting on the quiet wins, the stalled goals, and the lessons that didn't come with applause. We're talking about releasing unrealistic timelines, redefining success, and carrying a little less pressure into the new year.This episode is for anyone who showed up imperfectly, learned the hard way, and is choosing grace over grind as the year comes to a close. Soft, honest, and just a little sassy - because growth doesn't always look how we expected, but it still counts.Send us a text

Ever find yourself thinking: “I should be further along by now”? Our society is so OBSESSED with finishing things… what if strength lives in what's still taking shape?I've been taking an adult learning programme on resilience at my old university, University College Cork, and spending more time in my friend Juli's clay studio. There, I noticed: the clay pieces I tried to make perfect felt lifeless. The ones with flaws felt alive. This naturally led me back into the world of Wabi‑sabi — the Japanese aesthetic of imperfection, impermanence, and incompleteness — and how it mirrors resilience. In this episode, I walk you through:The cultural myth of “completion” and why we still chase itHow wabi-sabi challenges that mythWhat resilience really is — and how it shows up in softness not hardnessA short practice you can use this week to lean into being unfinishedIf you felt even a flicker of recognition in this episode, share it with someone who might need a reminder that perfection isn't the point — being alive is.

Ever wonder why your to-do list is always full, but your energy is always empty? Why your goals stay on paper, and rest feels like a reward you have to earn? In this eye-opening episode of Got Clutter? Get Organized!, I'm joined by Rashidat Odeyemi, Lifestyle Coach and Dream Strategist, who helps high-achieving women unlearn the hustle and embrace a softer, more intentional way of living. Rashidat understands the struggle firsthand. After burning out from years of being the “strong one” in every area of her life, she chose to stop chasing and start healing. Now, she helps women unpack the real reasons we stay stuck—from perfectionism and people-pleasing to deeply ingrained beliefs that rest equals laziness.
It's the last episode of this season, and we're discussing a tough question as we enter the summer months. With everything going on in the world, is a “soft life” realistic? Is it responsible? We wrestle with what it means to pursue peace and rest in a world that feels anything but soft. We explore how Black women, in particular, can give themselves permission to step back without ignoring the reality around them.
