In this episode I explore why we often settle for less than we want, need or even deserve. Sometimes things are good enough and that’s ok. But if your gut instinct is telling you you’re settling on/for the wrong thing, hopefully this helps. I talk about some of the psychological and societal factors involved and end with some practical tips and questions to help you build a life you love.

As summer approaches, conference season kicks into high gear, bringing a whirlwind of networking events, exhibitions and expos. If you’re anything like me, the excitement of reconnecting with friends and meeting new people is often overshadowed by a lot of exhaustion that seems disproportionate to the activities involved. After a day of attending sessions and socialising, you might feel completely drained, as if you’ve run a marathon instead of simply standing around chatting.

In this episode I explore the reasons behind this exhaustion and share practical tips to help you navigate conferences and networking events without burning out.

I also share some tips from a neurodivergent perspective which I’ve been trying at recent events.
