Episode 43: Where do you want your fire to live in the Year of the Fire Horse?

It’s one of those early mornings where the sky feels like a blank page, not bright yet - not dark anymore. And somewhere in the background, the year is turning over… quietly.

If you’re listening around Lunar New Year (17 Feb 2026), you might be hearing talk about the Year of the Fire Horse, a symbol of momentum, independence, and intensity… the kind that can warm your life or burn you out.

In this episode, we do gentle 2026 vision casting: planning from your future self with three soft layers - spirituality, strategy, and identity.

Even if you roll your eyes, there is no pressure. No perfection. Just one honest step at a time.

Where do you want your fire to live and how do you make it warm, not wild?

On a late walk home, I had a sudden “surround sound” moment - not dramatic, just real: buses sighing, wind humming through trees… and my breath sounding like it belonged to me again.

In this episode, we explore how your senses can ground you when you’re pivoting: career shifts, identity questions, imposter syndrome, creative uncertainty, all of it. A simple 2-step framework (zoom out, then zoom in) plus a low-pressure practice to calm the mental noise and come back to yourself.

If you’re in the doorway between who you were and who you’re becoming, this one’s for you.

When life goes wrong, your nervous system tries to grab the steering wheel - even when the road is already sliding.

In this episode, we explore the gentle reframe: life can be happening for you, not to you (without pretending it’s fair, deserved, or something you need to be grateful for right now).

You’ll hear a simple question that shifts the story and a two-step check-in you can use in real time to unclench your body and choose your next move.

If you’re in a career pivot, dealing with Gen Z work stress, imposter syndrome, or just a messy week… this one’s for you.

Follow for weekly reminders that starting again is growth. Share with someone mid-pivot.

Fear doesn’t always warn you. Sometimes it takes over, tight chest, shaky hands, that “don’t press send” paralysis… even when it’s just a phone call, an email, a date, a new beginning.

In Episode 40 of Pivot Era Podcast, we’re talking about the kind of fear that shows up like a bouncer outside your next chapter… and how to move anyway. Not perfectly. Just once. One rep. One message. One coffee. One “send.”

Because fear gets loud when your proof is silent. So let’s create evidence. And let fear come along, cold sweat and all - but not holding the steering wheel.

New episodes weekly. Follow, share, and send this to someone who’s starting again.

Episode 39 is about the thread running through present, presenting, presented and what it reveals about belonging.

Ever caught yourself holding your breath while doing something totally normal… then exhaled like your body’s saying, oh… we’re allowed to be here?

We explore the quiet pressure to look like you know what you’re doing, why “presenting” can trigger imposter syndrome, and how “presented” becomes that moment your brain replays like a tiny horror movie.

A softer reframe is, presence is who you are, presenting is what you share, presented is what you release. The skill isn’t mastering them; it’s about moving through them without abandoning yourself.

Take one minute with me: breathe, drop your shoulders by 1%, unclench your jaw… and ask: What room am I in today?

Pivot Era Podcast - not here to rush you into certainty. Here to help you stay steady while you’re becoming.

Have you ever stood in front of a choice you didn’t even want… but felt like it had to mean something?

In this episode, we’re talking about uncertainty - career pivots, identity shifts, and those quiet moments where you don’t know what you’re doing next… yet.

You’ll hear a simple framework I use when life feels unclear: The Three-Bite Rule (curiosity, data, kindness).

Because clarity doesn’t usually come first - it comes after movement.

If you’re in your pivot era right now, this one’s for you. Press play, take a breath, and take the smallest bite. Don’t forget to make yourself a cuppa either.

Ever been on the train home, scrolling… and suddenly your mind is spiralling? Promotions. Launches. Someone “living the dream.” And you’re left thinking: am I behind?

In this episode of Pivot Era, we step out of sideways attention and come back to what’s yours. A simple framework to help you define your lane, narrow your scoreboard, and stay loyal to the reps that build a life that actually fits you.

No hustle hype. Just quiet clarity, and a reminder: your life is not a group project.

New episodes drop weekly.

Self-trust isn’t built through big reinventions. It’s built in the tiny moments… the micro-promises you actually keep.

Like: “I’ll drink water.” “I’ll open the document.” “I’ll step outside for one breath.”

In this episode, we explore how self-trust is a relationship and how it quietly shapes motivation, confidence, and especially career pivots. No pressure. No perfection. Just repair, return, and proof.

Press play if you’ve been feeling shaky in your follow-through lately… and you want to start again, but gently.
