S2, Ep18: Quietly bold + seasonally aligned with Sarah Philp
Season 2 · Episode 18
Wednesday, August 20, 2025 • Duration 48:56
What if rest wasn’t something you had to earn? And what if planning didn’t need to feel like pressure?
In this beautiful, slow-paced conversation, I’m joined by the quietly bold Sarah Philp - psychologist, coach, and founder of Saorsa Psychology (Gaelic for freedom). Her work supports educators and leaders in making space for reflection, renewal, and a more seasonal way of living and working - yes, even within the rigid structures of the school year.
We talk about so much more than education here. This episode is an invitation to reconsider how you approach time, rest, leadership, and the rhythms of your work year especially if you’ve been caught in a cycle of “go-go-go” and can’t remember the last time you actually felt spacious.
Sarah also shares the story behind her stunning seasonal planner, Your Woven Year, designed especially for educators - but honestly? Anyone craving a slower, gentler approach to productivity will find so much wisdom in her words.
In this episode, we chat about:
What it means to be quietly disruptive and how powerful that can be
Sarah’s take on leadership as an introvert
The intense, rigid rhythms of the school calendar and how that affects wellbeing
Why rest and renewal aren't just for holidays and how to make space for them during the workweek
The story and intention behind her seasonal planner, Your Woven Year
How connecting with nature can become a tool for time awareness, not just self-care
Why she chose the Gaelic word for freedom as her business name and what freedom means to her
What we can all learn from teachers when it comes to presence, burnout and the power of rhythm
Whether you're an educator or not, this episode is full of gentle truths and thought-provoking moments that might just change how you plan your year.

S2, Ep 17 How to Create Success Without Side Effects with Oli Cooke
Season 2 · Episode 17
Wednesday, July 2, 2025 • Duration 53:25
What if the very success you’re chasing is quietly draining the life out of you?
In this episode, I’m joined by mindset and performance coach Oli Cooke, who helps driven entrepreneurs create success without the side effects. His “Rapid Root-Level Shifts” method helps untangle fear, anxiety and internal resistance that can sneak in as your business grows.
Now, as a former pharmacist myself, I couldn’t help but fall in love with that tagline, success without side effects. Because let’s be real, success that costs your health, peace or weekends isn’t really success, is it?
Oli’s story is a powerful one. From the outside, life looked dreamy: a beautiful villa in Vietnam, location freedom, a coaching business taking off. But under the surface? Crippling anxiety, daily dread and a constant feeling of something being “off.” In this conversation, we explore how he went from coping to true change, and what that means for business owners who feel like their internal world doesn’t match their external success.
Get ready for practical mindset tools, calming analogies and a conversation that feels like a big exhale.
What you'll learn in this episode:
The difference between fear and anxiety and why it matters for entrepreneurs
How “coping tools” can become another exhausting job
The power of specific intentions and mental rehearsal
A surprisingly simple technique to shift your brain’s fear response
Why time freedom means more than just a blank calendar
Resources mentioned:
Oli’s upcoming mini private podcast “Unblock the Bottleneck” for decision pressure
In this episode, host Sarah Stewart is joined by Suzanne Ulph, founder of The Curious Wolf. With over two decades of teaching experience, Suzanne transitioned from her role as an English teacher to establish a community centered on creative writing and connection.

Importance of Responsibility over Blame: Katie stresses that taking responsibility for one’s time management is different from self-blame. Recognising choice can empower us to manage time in alignment with our priorities.
Implementing Small Pauses: Katie advises incorporating small, intentional pauses, such as 30-second breathwork exercises, to recalibrate and reduce stress throughout the day.
Masterclass on Shifting from Stress to Stillness: Katie’s Stress to Still training encourages individuals to step out of the cycle of busyness, meet their needs, and foster a sense of calm in their lives.
