What Would She Do?

What if the thing that nearly stopped you was the thing that made you? Jo Ferrone is a coach and the founder of How Does She Do It — a community supporting women in business. In this conversation we get into impostor syndrome, why it shows up so strongly in capable women, and what actually helps. And then Joe shares her own story — severe anxiety from her teenage years, the GCSEs it nearly derailed, and the parents who pushed her toward the things she wanted to avoid rather than letting her withdraw. That decision changed everything. She's now a public speaker who has built her career helping other women move through the same fear she once lived inside. What would she do? She'd do the hard thing anyway.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — and you can find Jo @howdoesshedoitlife or @siulvoicebyjoferrone

What would you do if you looked in the mirror and didn't recognise yourself anymore? Marsha did something about it. She set herself a challenge — post every day for 80 days, commit to three small things, and start asking herself the questions she'd been avoiding. What happened next surprised her. In this conversation we talk about the moment she knew something had to change, how tiny habits snowballed into something much bigger, the plateau, the trolls, the online friendships, and what it actually feels like to start keeping promises to yourself. She's on day 58. She's not done yet. And she is not the same woman she was on day one. What would she do? She'd start anyway.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — and you can find Marsha on Instagram at @becomingmein80days.

My guest today is Nicola — stylist, creative, entrepreneur, mum, and someone who reads more psychology books than most therapists I know. Which tells you everything about why her approach to style is nothing like what you'd expect. This isn't about trends or hauls or dressing for anyone else. It's about understanding yourself well enough to reflect who you actually are in what you wear. We talk about her journey, the businesses she's built and walked away from, and why the superficial side of the fashion industry was never going to be enough for her. And we get into something that I think will stay with you — how the clothes you put on every morning are either telling the truth about you, or they're not. What would she do? She'd start by opening her wardrobe honestly.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — and you can find Nicola at @wearthestars and @fantasticelasticstyle.

We talk about stress like it's something to manage. But do you actually know what it's doing in your body? In this episode I'm getting into the real versus perceived threat, why your nervous system can't tell the difference between a lion and a work email, and what chronic stress is quietly doing to your health. Plus the breathing tools and mindset shifts that actually move the needle. There will always be stress. What changes is how you carry it.

This one is different. No information, no advice — just you, your breath, and the version of yourself you're moving towards. This episode is a guided visualisation, around twenty five minutes, designed to help you feel what it's actually like to be her. Not think about her. Feel her. Find somewhere quiet, get comfortable, and close your eyes. What would she do?

You know what to do. You've known for years. So why do the same patterns keep showing up? In this episode I'm getting into the neuroscience of why — how your brain automates your behaviour, filters your reality based on your identity, and why willpower was never going to be enough. This is where the real work starts. And it's not what you think.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — I'd love to know what landed.

The sleep, the weight, the fog, the mood swings — if you've been wondering whether this is just you, it isn't. In this episode I'm getting honest about what's actually happening in your body during perimenopause, why so much of the advice out there is contradictory and what I actually think about fasting for women at this stage of life. Plus the basics that nobody makes money from telling you — but that make the biggest difference. What would she do? She'd start here.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — I'd love to know what landed.

You know what to do. You've always known. So why doesn't it stick? In this first episode I'm sharing why I started this podcast, how my work shifted from nutrition plans to something much deeper, and the question that changed everything — for my clients and for me. If you've ever followed the plan perfectly and still felt like something was missing, this one's for you.Find me on Instagram @worklife_health or drop me an email at [email protected] — I'd love to know what landed.
