Hey team, I just turned thirty!!

There is so much hype around women needing to have their shit together by the time they're thirty, but why must we bow to these outdated and irrelevant social expectations?! Being married and having kids by thirty is great for some people, but it should only be your goal if that's what you want from life!

In today's episode - the first of season 2 of The Plan Bea Podcast - I talk about turning thirty, why your twenties are such an amazing practice ground for life and why turning thirty without 'having your shit together' isn't even a thing.

It's a juicy one - and longer than usual! I hope you enjoy, friend.

Let me know what it brings up for you @ThePlanBea on IG and www.theplanbea.com

One of my fav episodes yet. AND it's my TENTH one, too!

Let's get real, folks. What do you really want in life? How do you KNOW what it is you want?

It comes down to values - the important things to you. Have a listen and see if you can't get a little clearer on the things you're after... so you can stop with the things you don't want.

Yay, can't wait for you to hear it. 

Okay, so hear me out. A podcast about grief and loss, but it's not morbid - I promise!! 

We have reasons to grieve often throughout our lifetimes, but when we don't acknowledge that feeling, it can cause unresolved bad vibes. Grief doesn't have to be about death, and letting yourself feel it about different things in your life is actually super liberating. 

If you have ever lost anything - a relationship, job opportunity, your identity (etc etc etc)- this episode is for you!

Hey team, how are ya? First ep of 2022, whaaat?

This time I'm chatting about intentional living and what it means to make intentional decisions, based on what YOU want, not what is expected of you from others. Intentionality isn't a super catchy word so didn't make the episode title, but just a little alternative mindset on what you do with your days, how you make decisions and challenging you to do more things on purpose, because you want to!

As always, it's a shortie so if you wanna chat more, come and find me @ThePlanBea on Instagram or www.theplanbea.com online. 

Happy New Year team! For some of you, that might be a blessing, and for some others we might be apprehensive of what 2022 is going to bring. 

Either way, a new year is a tempting time to make a new year's resolution. A fresh year, a fresh start, right? Well, I've always had a love/hate relationship with them. 

We set our sights SO high, and often they're too high to attain and we feel like a failure... familiar? 

Well, NO MORE! Here's my guide to a perfect NY resolution, the ideal mindset and alternative view of failure. 

Enjoy! Let me know if it resonates with you over @ThePlanBea on IG or www.theplanbea.com. 

Hey team! In this episode I'm talking about how you can combat festive high expectations with gentle self-compassion. But fear not, if you aren't listening around Christmas time... this applies to any event or occasion. 

It's so easy to find yourself in a slump when trying to reach the expectations of family, friends... society! When we try and create the 'perfect' Christmas, all merry and bright (or birthday party, prom, big announcements etc) we often forget what we actually want, in lieu for what we think others want from us. 

Self-compassion is your way out! I hope you enjoy... and have the kind of Christmas you're wanting!

In this episode, I'm diving into what it means to be WILLING and how you can dictate your own success by defining how willing you are to do stuff. 

Being willing is another way to say what you're prepared to do... what something is worth to you. So join this quick chat about defining what is actually important in your life, and how you're able to reach success when you get clear on what's worth the work!

Today's podcast is about how to cultivate confidence and pretty much getting good at anything!

Based on studies of Dr. Russ Harris, and involving elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance + Commitment Therapy, check out this bitesized run through of how to feel more confidence about something you're doing.

The Confidence Cycle

1. Practise the skills 
2. Apply them effectively
3. Assess the results 
4. Modify as needed 

You can use this process for any single thing you're hoping to build confidence in!
