Thrive Alcohol Free

In this episode, I share the story of an experience I never expected to have at a business event in LA…bending a spoon.Twice.What started as scepticism and self-doubt turned into something much deeper: a reminder of how often we hold ourselves back before we’ve even begun.I explore:why we tend to think “what if down” instead of “what if up”how fear and self-doubt disconnect us from our own potentialthe difference between forcing and allowingwhy letting go often creates the shift we’re searching forhow much of what we’re looking for is already within usThis episode isn’t really about spoon bending. It’s about self-trust, possibility, and remembering who you are beneath fear, pressure and overthinking.If this resonates, feel free to get in touch @thriveblueprintbrand.

We spend so much of our lives trying to work out who we are through personality tests, strengths tests, labels, roles, expectations etc.But how much of what we identify with is actually us, and how much has been shaped by conditioning, pressure, and the environments we’ve moved through?In this episode, I explore why Human Design feels so different to traditional personality systems, and why so many people experience a deep sense of recognition when they begin to understand their design.Not because it tells you who to become, but because it helps you recognise who you already are beneath everything that’s taken you away from what naturally works for you.I also talk about:conditioning and identitywhy so many women over 40 begin questioning who they arethe conscious and unconscious sides of Human Designand why this stage of life may actually be the beginning, not the endingThis isn’t about fixing yourself. It’s about understanding yourself differently.If this speaks to you and you’d like to explore this work more deeply, feel free to get in touch @thriveblueprintbrand.

I can’t believe another year has come around and the London Marathon 2026 is happening this Sunday, the 26th of April! I was reflecting on my experiences of doing the London Marathon in 2023 and 2024. I was lucky enough to get a ballot spot both years and they were the most amazing experiences! Running over Tower Bridge, and seeing the sights of London, I worked in Canary Wharf at the time and it was so fun to see it in a different light and run past my office. So, if you are doing the London Marathon for the first time, I’m so excited for you, it will be epic. I wanted to share my experience in case it helps you as you prepare.Enjoy!

In this episode, Alexandra McRobert is back and we have another inspiring conversation. Alex was on the podcast in the early days, so if you haven’t heard this, go back to Episode 5 to listen to our first conversation. Alex shares her exciting news, as she has written a book, a memoir that comes out this week called ‘Sober Yoga Girl’. We talk about the book and Alex shares her journey, talks about finding her true calling, and building a life she loves. Alex talks about hitting her personal rock bottom while working as a teacher in Kuwait, which led her to sobriety and a complete life transformation. Our conversation delves into the emotional challenges of sobriety, the healing power of yoga, and the importance of self-love, spirituality, and believing in something greater. The episode is a powerful testament to the resilience and transformation that can come from choosing an alcohol-free life.

‘We don’t have to hit rock bottom, rock enough will do!’ This week, I speak to Lindsay Sutherland Boal, Founder of She Walks Canada and Creator of The Uncovery App. She tells how she went from Opera Singer to creating an innovative initiative to inspire and support women in transforming their relationship with alcohol. As well as developing the first women’s empowerment app through the lens of alcohol-free living. We discuss taking a break when you hit rock enough, our alcohol drenched society, the importance of identifying and living our values, and her two amazing initiatives and the freedom of being alcohol free! I also talk about how Olivia Pope kept me drinking red wine and as we hit the last few days of the Alcohol Free August Challenge, I go through the key tips from Week 4.
