What living on a superyacht in Monaco taught me about failure, freedom + trust ⚓️ // Ep 95
24/08/2023 Duración: 56minHave you ever felt it’s time to get up and out of a job, relationship or situation? But then start questioning or doubting yourself? Worrying that quitting somehow makes you a failure? I feel you. I’ve been there too. So in today’s podcast i wanted to share a personal story, from my time of living and working onboard a superyacht in Monaco… Yeah, i know, it’s weird isn’t it? I often get asked about my past lives, and despite there being lots of cringe moments in this one (enjoy!), i wholeheartedly own them as they very much make me who i am. So I hope this story inspires you to appreciate all of the learning moments that have brought you to where you are today. Also, i hope it serves as a reminder and/or a prompt learning to tune into and trust yourself and your own inner guidance system so you can hear what you want. What you really want. (Ps not a timely clickbait spice girl reference because, well…) And the importance of making space and time to connect with yourself, often. I love you. And i hope ther

How you can take a holiday when you can't “take a holiday”
10/08/2023 Duración: 26minIn today’s podcast, we’re exploring how to take a holiday when you can’t take a holiday, with lots of low to no cost ideas to rejuvenate your cells, wherever you are. I’m sharing something i wrote in 2018 which feels….apt at this time we’re in, global pandemic and being at home… if you, like me, are yearning for a different perspective, i hope there’s something here for you to lift your spirits. Many of us social distancing still, or exploring re-emergence. I really hope you enjoy it.

You can always begin again(+ again)
17/01/2023 Duración: 27minTodays podcast episode is a rebroadcast of a rebroadcast called ‘new year, new meh’, which, at this moment still, wildly resonates with me, and wonder if it might do the same for you. Whatever time of year, and whatever season you're in, I hope this meets you where you are, and offers you encouragement, care and support. Whenever you 'celebrate', honour or mark a new year, just wanted to share a reminder that every day - every moment in the day - offers us the opportunity to start again, to begin, again, as many times over as we need. This episode is very much about new year and how we can take the pressure off of ourselves and recognise that we get to choose. We get to choose how we show up, and how we step into this newness with intention and realness in ways that feel GOOD, as opposed to making ourselves feel a bit crap for not keeping up, or not doing the things that we wanted to do, whatever that may or may not be.

20/10/2022 Duración: 09minIn today’s episode I’m setting the scene for transitions; Transitioning the season, transitioning something in life, you can apply in whatever way that feels good to you. This is a chapter preview from the audio book of my online programme ‘Take care of you: Autumn’, an interactive and immersive journey to nurture your creativity and well being and inspire you through the season. i’m so excited to be running this autumn programme for the 5th year in a row (!) - I can’t quite believe it. Thank you to everybody who has joined the journey, and welcome to those of you considering it. It’s a self paced programme where you get to choose your own adventure (like the books in the 80s, but this is also a multimedia book thing) and it includes:

Some words of encouragement for artists + creative humans living with limitations
20/09/2022 Duración: 21minIn today's podcast, some words of encouragement for those of you on the road with your creative journeys. Perhaps you're an artist, perhaps you are someone who is working multiple full time jobs and doing your creative stuff on the side. Maybe you are living and working with limitations. Perhaps you are someone who is in this world and feeling a little bit out of place. Especially if you’ve received ‘hate’ or criticism or whatever for simply ‘doing you’… I hope these words can offer you some courage and maybe, some remembering.

Self care for Survivors
27/04/2022 Duración: 26minI originally wrote part of this podcast for my blog in January 2019, which bubbled up following conversations in more ‘mainstream’ platforms about the abuse of minors. I hate this is ‘relevant’ again, cause for Survivors, it’s never been a trend. Last night, i attended a community twitterspace discussing recent (but decades old) conversations around yet another person and their enablers, which, due to them being ‘high profile’ and thus granted power via systems in place, have continued to harm. I heard and felt the pain of many who bravely shared their stories, calling for change. I hate that we are still here. Calling out. Stepping forward and speaking up (and all the energy it takes to do so). Ever-hoping for change. I send all Survivors of abuse much care and healing. Please find resources over on my substack (dionne.substack.com), and feel welcome to share your own in the comments so we might be able to support one another.

Burnout, neurodivergence + what's been going on lately
25/01/2022 Duración: 31minIn this podcast i’m sharing some storytime moments on what’s been going on lately. Acknowledging the deep wisdom that can come from the darkest moments. Closing the ports and bringing things back to your centre. It’s really been a practice in trust, (unlearning) hyper independence and (unlearning) masking. also practicing not hiding and taking up space through boundary explorations. playing with easy up, easy down resilience-building. and expression that feels safe (this is the sticky bit, but i'm invested! ) So staying with what is, practicing tenderness, compassion and acceptance for what is, essentially doing the best i can with what i got! And as you might expect, i also share some ideas 4u to explore, whether you’re experiencing something similar in resonance or just want some evergreen tools. i really hope this podcast helps support you in remembering who you are, as well as offers some free space for exploration. And I also want to honour space for not needing to Do (capital d) or leap into sel

From the archives: Dealing with darker days
08/01/2022 Duración: 32minThis episode is for those of you struggling with the darkness of the winter months, who might be low on energy, motivation, struggling to keep up, or just generally have a case of the winter blues. - For those of you who suspect its something more that the winter blues, I recommend you reach out for help to feel better. Head to your doctor, speak to a therapist. Reach out for help. I’m not a therapist and this podcast isn’t a substitute for therapy. In this episode I’m offering some tools and inspiration + practical ideas that are hopefully helpful in shifting your state. This is a rebroadcast of episode 24 that I made last winter, when I certainly needed to pep talk myself during the cold dark days. I hope it serves you to lift your spirits and to remind yourself of who that hell you are. Find all links and resources mentioned below or head to the show transcript on my blog for more! Thank you for listening! Love, Dionne xxx Shownotes, links and presents can be found at https://dionne.space/podcas
