• Embrace the power of 'and'
    Mar 19 2024

    We all want to feel loved, but when it comes to loving ourselves, we are doing some really bad maths - we see ourselves as a handful of positive actions minus a TON of flaws, leaving us drowning in value debt. The 'audacious and' movement asks us to swap these demerits for a series of 'and's, turning our flaws into just segments of the awesome pie chart that makes us up.

    Join Anna and Rachel as we talk about:

    • a new way of calculating self worth
    • practical steps to getting you towards greater self love
    • real life examples of how this works
    • the conditioning we receive as we move through life
    • how to apologise better

  • Everyday love doesn't need romance
    Mar 5 2024

    Everyday love - the little actions that we take to show someone we love them - is often thought to need a romantic relationship. Yet as we discuss, it's actually most important to commit to those actions towards ourselves first, then spread them out from there... (No romantic partner needed!) Join Anna and Rachel to hear how these actions can change things up from your own self-love all the way to society-shaking change. In this episode, we discuss:

    • a definition of everyday love
    • why the "icky" things are just as important as bubble baths
    • some of the inequalities and barriers to everyday love
    • how this concept then applies to organisations
    • why we should never cross our values for someone else's love language (aka Anna's stand against Christmas cards)

    In this episode we discuss:

    • Neurodiversity, trauma and the impact on empathy
    • Different definitions of empathy
    • Are we losing community in our society?
    • Bridging physical divides between us
    • When empathy only goes one way

  • Having a relationship with love?
    Feb 20 2024

    We all have developed a relationship with love through our upbringings, our past experiences and how we made sense of them in our developing minds. Join Anna and Rachel as they discuss their journeys. In this episode we cover:

    • Anna's story - difference, masking your authenticity and domestic violence
    • Coaching as a pathway to personal change
    • A new way of viewing our worth - am I loveable?
    • Rachel's story - feeling replaced, seeking evidence and unlearning overachievement
    • Love's role in violence reduction.

    Please note, there are brief mentions of suicidal thinking and abuse in this episode - they are very short, but listen with your own boundaries in mind.
