Episode 16: Are you Team Go or Team Slow?
Happy new year! There can be a lot of pressure to hit the ground running at this time of year, but is that right for you right now? In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I encourage you to take a moment to consider how you want your January to feel. Are you giving yourself what you need?

Whether you’re rushing around trying to get everything done, heading into hibernation-mode, getting ready for fun festive frolics or readying yourself for travel, the mantra I share in this episode of Unfrazzle is for you.
Episode 14: New year, new planner?
It happens every year. The bombardment of ‘new year new you’ messages designed to get us believing that if we just buy xxxx thing, all our problems will be solved. In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I share why I’m not buying it, why a shiny new planner might not actually be the answer to your prayers, and what it really takes to get organised in 2024.
Episode 13: Why productivity happens before you take action
What if taking action was actually getting in the way of your productivity? In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I share why there’s more to getting stuff done than meets the eye. And why too much doing could actually be holding you back.
Episode 12: Why are your ideas stuck on the backburner?
Over the years I’ve seen way too many brilliant projects and ideas stuck on the backburner when they should be making an impact out in the world. In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I share the cycle many business owners get stuck in that leaves them surrounded by half-finished projects. Does it feel familiar to you too?
Episode 11: Busy rushing from this thing to that thing to the other thing?
When you started your business, did you imagine you’d spend every day rushing from one thing to the next to the next? It’s easy to fall into that pattern, particularly when you’re full of brilliant ideas and there’s loads you want to be doing in the world. This week’s episode of Unfrazzle is a gentle invitation to consider what you’re missing when you’re always in a hurry.
Episode 10: Are you noticing what works?
We’re all very good at spotting when things aren’t working, but are you paying enough attention to what DOES work? In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I challenge you to counter your in-built negativity bias and see what that does for your productivity.
Episode 9: Ever feel you're playing catch up?
When things don’t go according to plan and you’re behind where you wanted to be, do you feel like you need to catch up? In today’s episode of Unfrazzle I explain why I don’t think that’s helpful, and what you can do instead.
Episode 8: Riding the emotional rollercoaster
It can be hard to stay on track when life throws you a curveball. So what do you do when emotions are running high? Hide under your duvet and wait for it to pass, or do your best to recalibrate. In this episode I share why it’s ok if things don’t go according to plan, and how two heads are often better than one.
Episode 7: The messy, muddy middle
Have you ever sat down to work on something for a few hours and felt disappointed with what you had to show for it? Me too!
