For a long time I have been living intuitively, before eating I ask myself what does my body want? I ditched my alarm in the morning so my body can guide how much sleep it needs and I have let my body decide what exercise I should be carrying out every day even if that means every morning for weeks I do yoga rather than running or a hit workout. I didn’t know intuitive living was a thing though until I discovered Emmy Vadnais. In our current society analytical thinking has been promoted over our intuition, especially as women which is exactly what I get into with Emmy. We talk about the questions you should ask yourself to live intuitively, what to do if your intuition is telling you one thing but comes at the cost of disappointing others, including family and friends, the connection between your intuition and your dreams and consciousness and of course how to strengthen your intuition, how much of a role the universe plays in our intuition and how to not let our intuition get affected by the news that surrounds us everyday.

As you tribers know, I work with Harvard University as a female empowerment expert. The first time I spoke there I also met Tara Bradford, a speaker, mental health advocate and personal brand expert. No matter how many times I hear it, I always find Tara’s story so compelling, she began as a nurse and then at 30 realised she wasn’t living the life she was destined for, she packed up her bags, moved to New York City and became a certified high performance coach.
What makes Tara so different is her commitment to kindness and empathy in business, just in time for the holidays you are going to learn how to become a wildly successful woman through kindness, the questions you should be asking yourself to figure out your values and the questions you should be spending the holidays going over to make sure you are living as your most authentic self in 2021. Tara is full of wisdom, she provides so many free resources throughout the episode and I have no doubt this is the episode you need to gear yourself up for the holiday season.

This is an episode all about healing and speaking your truth, and is so moving you will start thinking about your entire childhood and life differently. You ready?
I am delighted to announce Smart Girl Tribe is supporting Women For Women's new campaign #HopeInSisterhood. The campaign is built around the story of Amela, one of the programme graduates in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Executive Director, Brita Fernandez Schmidt whom were joined together in sisterhood through Women for Women International's year-long sponsorship programme.
The short film documenting their story, which will kickstart our campaign will be available TONIGHT. Head to @womenforwomenuk for tickets (prices starting as low as £3).
The campaign will focus on themes around hope, sisterhood and sowing seeds for a positive future.
One of the most poignant parts of the film, is the story of how Amela used some of the stipend money from her training to purchase tulip seeds, which years later continue to bloom every spring to remind her of her sponsor 'sister', Brita.
Anyone that sponsors a sister during the month will receive a pair of tulip bulbs, so they too can plant them like Amela and be reminded every time they bloom of the connection with their new sponsored sister.

74% of British adults have been so stress this past year they have felt unable to cope, I have been there and know you have too so I thought it was about time to call in a stress expert. We don't only talk about the root of stress but how our own birth story affects our stress patterns, if stress is genetic, the root of stress, what you can do to live a completely stress-free life.
2020, what a year. It has already had such an impact on people's mental health that I thought it was about time to call in an expert to explore holistic and natural ways to ease stress, anxiety and depression.
According to a 2019 Consumer Reports CBD survey, 40% of people aged between 18 - 29 have tried CBD, I was not one of them which is why this episode is so great. I ask every question you can think of to do with CBD and I ask all of those curious questions that you won’t find the answers to on the back of a bottle.
As you know, I have started my personal development journey again and here I have been documenting my progress and everything changing my life. Here is another solo episode, enjoy tribers!
A couple of weeks ago you may remember I opened up about the importance of exploring your inner child and how I am doing exactly that, the more I dived into the subject, the more I realised how crucial it is to your personal growth.
I knew that this would really help you so I called in an expert, Tracy Callaghan , an inner child specialist , she is a full time therapist with her own practice and in this episode we of course get into what exploring your inner child means, how to tap into the mind of your inner child, emotional triggers that might be cropping up for you that you don’t know about and the importance of healing as a woman. This is a powerful episode and I know it will change your healing journey.
Did you know the majority of women would rather talk about their own death than money?
Misty Lynch , the money expert busts money myths in this episode. She talks about the relationship you should have with money, breaks down all the money terms such as stock, bond and investment, and shares how you can get more more easily and also what you should be doing as a single woman to prepare financially for marriage or what your relationship with money should look like as a married woman.
Misty is a rockstar in this field and helps tons of very normal people make millions every year so we dive into that and the rituals the super wealthy have to keep up with their finances. Misty also answers my burning questions such as saving for a pension and how to work out how much of your income should be disposable but also navigating the current economic crisis and how to ease the blow. This is a golden episode and one that will actually give you the tools to help your wallet and money mindset.

Hello tribers. I am really looking forward to you all listening to today’s episode with Alison Baskerville, Alison is a conflict photographer, a former solider and artist. As influencers are on the rise, celebrity x factor exists and it seems everyone knows who the Kardashians, it was so refreshing to talk with Alison, not only about her work but being a female soldier and being told that that wasn’t a career choice from women. We talk about being a conflict photographer, what feminism means, life after her exhibition went viral and when her world was turned upside down, the relationship between social media and photography and of course, the role war plays in society. This is such a hard hitting, provocative episode, we have never released anything like this which is why I'm so thrilled to do so today.
