  • The Deliberate Exchange EP#08 Relying on External Validation Only Ends In Heartache
    Jan 5 2025

    We all have a core need to be seen, heard, understood, but when we rely on this to come solely from external sources, it will end up in heartache.

    Im sharing my experience with this, the concept of reciprocity, and how to start breaking free of needing this external validation.

  • Why Self-Care Feels Hard (And How to Make It Work for You) EP#07
    Dec 29 2024

    Why is it so easy to grab another coffee or glass of wine, but so hard to drink water or move your body? In this episode, I dive into why even the most basic self-care practices can feel challenging and how to overcome the guilt, resistance, and false beliefs holding you back.

    From redefining self-care beyond surface-level indulgences to creating sustainable habits that align with your values and identity, I share personal stories, insights, and actionable steps to help you prioritize your well-being.

    Learn how to rewrite the stories that drive your behaviour, embrace self-care as a contribution to yourself and others, and build a foundation that supports your mental, physical, and emotional health.

    Ready to make self-care work for you? Let’s start small, build trust, and create lasting change together.

  • Nobody wants a drinking problem: How alcohol crept in & took over EP#06
    Dec 22 2024

    No one sets out to have a drinking problem, yet for many, alcohol quietly becomes an unwanted companion. In this episode, we dive into my personal journey of quitting drinking, revealing how this one decision became the catalyst for profound transformation.

    We go over the subtle ways alcohol seeps into our routines, the societal pressures that normalize overindulgence, and the stigmas surrounding sobriety. I open up about the shame, grief, and resistance I faced in choosing to step away from drinking—and the incredible rewards that came from embracing life without it.

    If you’ve ever felt like alcohol is disrupting your peace, draining your energy, or holding you back from thriving, this episode is for you. Learn how making a bold, deliberate choice can reignite your confidence, clarity, and sense of purpose, and why sometimes being "the odd one out" is the bravest and most rewarding path forward.

    Key Takeaways:

    • The sneaky creep of drinking culture in our lives.
    • Why choosing sobriety isn’t about shame but about reclaiming your power.
    • The emotional, physical, and mental benefits Chelsea has experienced over five years of sobriety.
    • How to access resources and communities to support your own journey.

    This isn’t just an episode about quitting drinking—it’s about choosing yourself, thriving unapologetically, and creating a life of presence and purpose.
