In 2016 her major burnout was a turning point to understanding trauma especially for high achieving women, and her impetus for working specifically on the essence and quality of feminimity, effects of stress on the body and our inner heart and emotions.
I hope you enjoy this sensational conversation, Nic know has launched her 5 point Masterclass Series - 'The Deeply Satisfied Woman' which she believes is her best work on being courageously honest about ourself!

This is our 100th episode of Thriving Matters Podcast and our conversation today involves a camera, backpack and an incredible dose of curiosity!
Chris Ireland believes in an 'all access pass to life' and his story to date is one of resilience, creativity, grit and generosity - he is supercharged to learn about people and his camera provides the equipment he needs to share other peoples stories with a view to the future of humanity and community responsibility.
Listen in as we talk about thriving in life, change and purpose underlined by deep family and social justice values.
Chris is most proud of his newly launched fine art business, Platina Editions (www.platinaeditions.com). Also, the completion of a ten year self funded photographic project called All Things Considered (www.atcexhibition.com.au)
We chat about some defining life and career moments including being mentored, having major back surgery, Erin's (partner) stroke and cathartic response to photograph the family during her recovery.
A fabulous conversation about rethinking our lifework balance, learning to adjust creatively and 'bringing the world in' so we can reimagine the joy in our life.
A key message: "See the good in people, and give more than you ask in return. We’ve all had a tough trot, but let’s come out better. Better humans, more connection, more focused on things that matter."
If you get an opportunity check out Chris's work and exhibitions - they are incredibly provocative and mindful at the same time.

Our conversation about VIRTUES is one you will find very interesting! While we have moved to instant and virtual connections, the way we communicate with our young people and each other as adults can be very black and white and super quick! Often we mis-interrupt digital communciations depending on the frame of miond we are in!
Gladys and I delve in to the importance of role modelling respectful behaviours and language with our young people and their parents/carers which has major ramifications for workplace and leadership cultures.
Listen in as we share that seeing others through the lens of virtues helps us to see the goodness in others, so we can become more understanding, positive and more creative in problem solving. The importance of the words we use in our daily conversation, especially when we acknowledge our children and youth when they have done well or encouraging them to do better. The use of our words can shape the inner image of our children that builds authentic self-esteem.
We hope you enjoy this conversation and provoke interest in discovering how an understanding of virtues and their role can influence your workplace and family relationships and communities you belong too.

Join Luke Buesnel as we discover that he is an 'explorer of life' and the telling of his story has bought him to the entrepreneur space that he is totally embracing!
Tune is to our conversation where we find a few common connections, have a laugh at the coincidences and talk a 'hero's journey' that we all can reasonate with.
Luke has stepped through his career changes, boosting his resiliency skills into super powers he needed to 'back himself' when the chips were down.
Listen in as we learn, I'm sure you will be inspired about his insights and learnings and importance of telling stories and how to tell a great one!.
How resilience (and never backing down) is the key to building a business.
And how Story League started from where many listeners will currently be – frustrated, angry and undervalued in a corporate job… until he was sacked, and went out on his own.
Luke also shares that a table tennis table, video games, or a monthly in-house barista don’t make culture. Culture is what you do and how you behave when nobody is looking.
I hope you enjoy our conversation! Every podcaster loves a little love, so share this with someone who you think will benefit and enjoy and leave a review on their fav podcast platform.

"Life is too short for anyone to be spending their time, grieving and suffering - Yes it is as simple as that!"
Karen Chaston knows that if you feel that there is something missing in your life maybe that something is you!
A life changing event in July 2011 with the death of her 27 yrs old son Dan created a totally new space for Karen to understand people more.
So how did she renew her focus after this sudden and cruel shock? Listen in as we share how we really don't know how to deal with loss and significant change in our journey of life and how it's possible to love despite despair and pain.
Karen shares her 9 areas of life and the Five Step Process that makes the loss easier to manage, an empowering process:
1. Stop
2. Accept
3. Identify (forgiveness)
4. Complete acknowledgement (out loud)
5. Pivot for a deep dive (new possibiities)
"The gift is not in the loss- it comes after wards when you unravel the loss..."
I hope you enjoy our conversation with Karen, an exceptional person and leader!
