Are you actually behind or is society gaslighting you?
In this episode, we’re unpacking the pressure to “have it all together” by your twenties. Are you really falling behind, or are we just measuring ourselves against timelines that were never ours to begin with? I bring the STATS in this episode to prove to you that you are definitely not 'behind,' whatever that means. Let’s talk about societal expectations, self-worth, and redefining success on your terms.

Ive realised recently how intrigued I am by introverts vs extrovert and how if you change between the two it can actually be quite a tricky transition. In this ep we chat about what I think it means to be an introvert & an  extrovert vs the dictionary definition, how lockdown change us all and how to recharge as both an introvert vs extrovert. A lot of discussion and not a lot of conclusion in this ep, enjoy xxx

With the new year just around the corner i wanted to remind you of something - you can do hard things. This is something i’ve been reminding myself of a lot recently so i wanted to make a little episode on it.

Self help books can be so over whelming. There's so many of them and each one covers so many topics. In this episode I share the best advice (in my opinion) from some of my favourite help help books. We talk all things mindset towards bad people in your life, the importance of controlling your reactions and one of the best outlooks on life i've ever read. Enjoy the ep :)

Spirituality & religion. A topic that has always fascinated me. Todays episode is simple, i tell you what i believe and what i don’t believe. I also come to the conclusion that no matter what you believe, we’re all searching for the same thing - comfort.

We're back with another advice session ! This time were taking about feeling like you're behind on life, allowing yourself to be more human, living with your parents again after uni and so much more! Its giving FaceTime with ur bestie vibes, enjoy the ep :) 

Everyone always asks for an episode dedicated to all things break up, so here it is. I thought I better get some guests on for this episode & who better than my newly single besties. All three of us have different experiences with break ups which means we also have different advice. Whether you're going through a break up, unsure if you should break up with your partner or fancy a girly chat while we have a drink - this episode is for you. 

An old-school favourites if you will.

I love being nosey, I love yapping and I LOVE a recommendation from the girlies so here's everything I'm loving right now. From beauty to food to fitness.

Hope you enjoy the ep!

Today we’re playing a game. A game of self development. Basically i go through a ton of fun journal prompts/ questions & try to answer them all! Some of these questions are so interesting i want you guys to play along with me & let me know ur answers !

Recently I realised I might be too self aware for my own good, constantly overthinking & overanalysing. My opinion on this changes throughout the episode as I realise maybe being self aware and overthinking isn't the problem, its the judgement that follows. If you feel like maybe you're too self aware, are constantly over analysing yourself or judge yourself for your own thoughts and feelings, this one is for you. 

Love ya, enjoy the ep :)

I had an encounter while traveling which completely changed my view on what vulnerability was to me. I think my view is perhaps quite different to most peoples. I think vulnerbility is almost expressing the emotions we fear most. If you're scared of vulnerability like me, or just want to open your eyes to the topic, this one is for you. 

I’ve always been so interested in the idea of energy, chakras & anything spiritual so in todays ep i tell you about my first time trying Reiki (Energy healing therapy) & what i’ve learnt so far about charkas ! A bit of a different episode but i love this one! Enjoy :)

It's come to my attention recently that we cannot grow as humans if we do not have unconditional love for ourselves. We often try to run before we can walk and try 101 different ways to grow and improve ourselves without addressing the basics - how worthy do we feel? You cannot beat yourself up into becoming a netter person and if you feel this is something you do, this episode is for you. 

What would you stop doing if you already felt worthy? What would you dare to dream if your self worth wasn't at stake?

Hello@lifesyourbitch.com

Its time for a HUGE chatty catch up!! In this ep we talk about everything i've been up to recently, how i've been feeling, realisations i've had and of course answer some of your questions/dilemmas. These episodes are always my favourite to film so grab a cuppa, go on a hot girl walk or whatever tickles your fancy and lets get started.

hello@lifesyourbitch.com

Don't let the system & society foul u, life is so simple. In todays epsiode I talk to you, maybe quite brutally, about how we make our own struggles. I've learnt a lot from listening to ted talks and spending time in balinese culture about how life is as simple as we make it. In this episode I share the lessons ive learnt and advice ive been given and hopefully inspire you to stop complaining about how life is so hard because really, in reality, its easy and simple. 

'Finding yourself' has become this weird overcomplicated goal thanks to our bestie social media. So im here to tell you how EASY it is but also why its a shit goal to have:) I feel like there's not much more to say, enjoy the ep, its a really good one.

I've always been so intrigued by the world of tarot cards so I decided to go and get mine read and tell you guys all about it. That's pretty much it, thats the episode. Some of the things the reader said were pretty spooky accurate, some not so much so come along for the ride. Love ya, enjoy the ep :) 

Instant vs delayed gratification is a topic I think about almost every time I make a decision but it came to my attention recently that maybe not everyone know what it means. We make the decision between instant & delayed gratification everyday, multiple times a day, so it's so important that we know that these means and how to use it to our benefit. This episode is full of advice on how to choose delayed gratification more often to help us achieve our goals. Enjoy the ep:)

A very open and honest conversation about food - a tricky one. I want to talk about eating food for fuel and nutrition instead of weight loss and how the idea of 'food freedom' across social media can be damaging.

Raw, uncut, unplanned, If your not in a place to hear about food, calories, weight loss etc please please skip this one!!!!

Time for my fave type of episode! Its an advice session!!! This one is all dilemma/scenario based, we talk about everything from relationships to jobs to solo travel. If you're looking for a sign to get out of your comfort zone and chase your dream you're going to like this one. Grab a drink & enjoy the ep :)

I have a guest woooo!! Today me and one of my besties, Tia Zanetti, sit down and chat to you guys about, pretty much, every single female friendship we've had. The good, the bad and the ugly. Female friends can be hard to navigate and change so much as we grow up so join us while we try and figure it out together. Love u, enjoy the ep<3

Hustle culture is so hilariously ironic as its the least productive way of life yet social media screams otherwise. In this episode I chat to you about where hustle culture has come from and essentially why its so stupid. If you've had enough of constantly feeling guilty for resting or can't deal with the pressures from hustle culture anymore, this one is for you. Lemme help u rewire your brain. Enjoy the ep:)

I constantly feel so busy, my mind is always going 100mph, and recently I realise its probably because im actually just unproductive BUT im only so unproductive because my mind is so busy. In this ep I share with you what I've learnt recently about breaking this cycle and making a step towards being more productive. We talk about the signs of being a busy but unproductive person, how to stop this, how to calm a busy mind and so much more. A very insightful, helpful episode if I do say so myself so enjoy :)

Relationships are such a big part of our lives, and our 20s, whether we'd like to admit it or not so being able to navigate them well is SO important. This episode is much more of a chatty girl talk. I take you through my journey with relationships, what I learnt along the way, how I healed after my ego got extremely bruised and what is important to me in relationships now. If you've ever wanted to know more about my relationships or how to heal after a break up, this is the ep for you. enjoy, love u. 

I suck at saying no, to nights out, work opportunities to literally anything I dont actually want to do - or sometimes do want to do. Its so important to be able to recognise when you want to/need to say no and be able to do so. In this episode I talk about why I normally end up saying yes when I want to say no, how I plan on overcoming that, when to say yes & no and so much more. Saying no means your becoming your most authentic self, which is always the goal. hope u enjoy the ep <3 

back again with an advice ep! this time we talk about first heart breaks, overcoming 'failure', having a more positive outlook and I share my biggest life advice. grab a drink and enjoy the ep! love u

Self worth is a tricky one. In this ep I dive into my own self worth journey and open up about past insecurities like my need for validation. We also talk about how you can gain a higher sense of self worth & why its so important to do so. This is one of my most vulnerable eps yet so I hope it resonates with some of you. ily enjoy the ep x 

I’ve been letting my ego control my goals way too much recently so this episode is all about how to set genuine goals that align with you & my journey with that so far. Let’s set some new goals together & get excited again

As im sure you all know I went to Bali for a month so I had a lot of time to think, reflect and get myself all confused. In this podcast I tell you everything I learnt/realised in Bali, my thoughts post uni and where I stand with social media atm. Big fat catch up so grab a coffee and let's get chatting.

Winter can be shit, like super shit BUT it doesn't have to be. Ive shifted my mindset from 'getting through winter' to 'embracing the season' and heres how. Hopefully these 5 things will make your winter a lot happier :)

I need to sort my life out. My mind is constantly running at 100 mph & its time to chill the fuck out. In this video I talk about the hot girl habits im going to try *very* hard to form in attempts to better my life. You best believe I go off on the biggest rant yet and you get a proper look inside my brain, warning its messy. ANYWAY here's my hot girl habits to SLOW THE FUCK DOWN :)

Journalling is such a simple activity that has become so overcompliacated by social media so today we take it back to basics with the LSW London & Past Therapist, Lili Sinclair-Williams. Lili has so much knowledge around the subject of journaling this episode was so interesting and beneficial for me to film so I know you guys will feel the same once you listen. We talk about how to actually journal, how to not spiral when journaling, how to journal on sad days and so much more. Enjoy !!! & Thank u so much to Lili again :)

its time for an open advice session! this episode we go a bit deeper, we talk about dealing with imposter syndrome, how there's no such thing as the 'right' choice in life, how to be a 'do-er' not a dreamer and A LOT more. Join me and my glass of rosé for an hour of girl talk. Enjoy

Im sure we've all been there. Whether you feel like your on the edge of burning yourself out, are in the middle of burn out or are just desperate to prevent it, this ep is for you! I feel like I need to cure from years of habitual burnout so I really wanted to make an episode dedicated to burnout because I think its so important to be aware of it. In this ep we talk about the stages of burnout, my personal view / experience and how ro prevent it/cure it. Get cosy, its a long one.  

In this episode we talk everything uni. Making friends, burnout, saying yes, saying no, being lonely, the expectation of freshers ... EVERYTHING. Whether your just about to start uni or you're already going through it I am also 100% sure you'll learn something useful from the episode. Enjoy the episode as I chat, rant and go off topic. I hope you love it<3

finally!!! the first law of attraction episode! in this episode I share my perspective on law of attraction, how I use it to reach my goals and a lot more. I think its rather insightful and shows how I approach a lot of situations. love ya, enjoy xxx link to the meditation! https://youtu.be/NVPrxcR_RZI

it’s time for another open advice session!! this one is major facetime with ur bestie vibes, super chill & chatty. we talk about chatting shit about other people, the excitement in a break up, pressure to grow up & way more ! enjoy <3

Stress is something I've always struggled with & as im sure you know it's deadline season so I thought this episode was appropriate lol. Whether you're a student or not this episode is one you need to hear. Last year my health took a bit of a wobble due to pure stress and in that moment I made a promise to myself that I would never let myself get to that point ever again and in this ep I tell that story and tell you how I've managed to keep that promise. 

This episode is probably my most raw, chatty & real yet. I go off topic 100 times, tell you about my favourite size spoon and open up about how I hate self help sometimes. You're in for a roller coaster, enjoy :)

As soon as I started this podcast I knew this was a topic I wanted to talk about and I couldn't think of a better person to share the mic with than Charlotte. Charlotte is such a beautiful genuine person, she is a self love and body positivity advocate with lots of wonderful, helpful advice to share. This is maybe my favourite episode yet. We talk about Charlottes journey with her body, avoiding the toxic side of self love and how you can start your own realistic self love journey. Aswell as answering a BUNCH of questions from you guys.

Enjoy the episode <3

We've always been told the most successful people in this world have routines, if you want to be a billionaire you have to have a routine but we tell people with bad mental health to break and switch up their routine? So is it really a tool for success or an inevitable path to driving yourself crazy? In this episode we talk about toxic routine mindset, how to try and not only how form a healthy routine but a healthy mindset around routines & how to not beat yourself up for missing one day. 

Ah, the winter arc is here. Here are my goals for the rest of the year and how I intend to achieve them before we dive head first into marathon training at the start of 2025.

Healthiest, best version of myself pending.

Its our first open advice session! I asked you guys to send in questions/scenarios you needed advice on and I got answering. We talked confidence, motivation, how perfection is the lowest standard you could have & being ok with not knowing what the future holds! hope you love the episode!<3 If you want to be in the next advice episode email your question/scenario to hello@lifesyourbitch.com  ig - @lifesyourbitch tiktok - @lifesyourbitch

You're the only person you're guaranteed to spend the rest of your life with, so you may as well start falling in love with your own company. In this episode I talk about how being alone DOES NOT mean you are lonely, how to date yourself, whether you are single or in a relationship, and how to enjoy your own company. I may or may not also get a little too passionate answering your questions. I think this topic is SO important so I really hope you love it and find some value in it <3 ps: I think u will x 

Oh the topic of self care. I feel like self care has turned into a huge glorified social media trend in the last few years and the value of true self care has been lost. In the episode I talk about what self care ACTUALLY is and how you can add it into your every day life! Enjoy the episode!!
