  • A Waking Dream for an Audience of One
    Today’s episode is a loooong one, but a magical one. My guest is Tiu de Haan - a ritual designer, creative facilitator, and idea doula who has worked with an incredible range of clients over the past 20 years - from Google and the UN to L’Oréal and the Ministry of Justice. Her work involves creating transformative rituals and experiences that help people play, get creative, and shift their perspectives in profound ways.But today, we’re diving into a story that even Tiu, someone who lives and breathes magic, wonder and transformation, describes as one of the most extraordinary, life-changing experience she’s ever had…On the 24th May 2024, Tiu was immersed in a 36 hour transformational experience that had been created by 15 strangers who had spent months studying her, interviewing her, her friends and family so that they could create a unique and transformational experience solely for her - an experience so personal that no one else, not even the creators, witnessed it in its entirety. When Tiu first told me about it, I was amazed and baffled in equal measure. How incredible for fifteen strangers to dedicate so much time to creating a one day transformative experience for someone they didn’t even know, when they weren’t even getting paid for it. But why did they do it? And most important of all, what happened during those 36 hours, because Tiu really did come back profoundly changed by the experience. And so she suggested we hit record and she share every detail of this remarkable journey. And so that is what we did.In this episode we explore:* What Odyssey Works is all about and why they go around getting strangers to spend months creating a one-off experience for an audience of one. Free of charge.* How Tiu got picked to be that audience of one and why she wanted to do it.* How the experience unfolded step by step—and how it utterly transformed Tiu’s life.This is the longest episode I have ever put out into the world, but I didn’t want to cut it down because every moment of this story needed to be told. Plus I figured, as we ease ourselves gently into a new year, why not immerse ourselves into a long juicy conversation about the power of collaboration, creativity, play, transformation, wonder and giving? So, without further ado, here’s my conversation with the extraordinary Tiu de Haan. Enjoy - and don’t forget to check the show notes for links to everything we discuss, including The Odyssey, Tiu’s work, and the powerful track by VLMV.Let’s dive in!x SelinaP.S.

  • What to do when the traditional world of work doesn't work for you
    In this final episode of series #1 of Another Way I’m talking with..err…well, me! Yes, I’m flying solo for this episode because I wanted to talk about the topic that I have dedicated the past two decades to: how to create a career you love, particularly when the traditional world of work doesn’t work for you. And if you think you might be one of those people, then trust me, you are not alone. Staggering numbers of people are miserable at work, either because they don’t enjoy what they do or because they are working at such an unsustainable pace that they are burning out from it. In a recent global study by Gallop, it was found that unhappiness at work as it an all time high with two thirds of people feeling miserable and stressed out at work. And while these statistics break my heart to see, they don’t surprise me. The traditional way of working simply does not work for the vast majority of us. I learnt very quickly that it absolutely didn’t work for me and so I had to find another way. And twenty years on I can hand on heart say I love my work and my career.So if you’re feeling stuck on a treadmill of daily grind and exhaustion and miserable in your work, then this episode of Another Way is for you. I dive deep into the topic of how to create a career you love when the traditional world of work doesn’t work for you.Hit play And if you feel ready to find a way of working that really works for you and you’d like me to help you figure out what that work is (and how to make the change), then come and check out my Coaching programmes and book yourself in for a Discovery call with me. x Selina This is a public episode.

  • Unlocking the Power of Sisterhood with Cordelia Taylor
    This episode of Another Way is a particularly special one. It’s with my incredible friend Cordelia Taylor who has, in the past five years, since she was diagnosed with brain cancer and given 18 months to live, taught me so much about how to embrace life, how to savour every moment and the incredible power of sisterhood.We have been holding sister circles together for more than six years. It has changed both of our lives and Cordelia is passionate about encouraging women to tap into the power of sisterhood, because it is hands down one of the most powerful sources of love and support that has held her up through her cancer journey.So when a few months ago Cordelia got the devastating news that she only has a few months left to live, we decided it was time to record this podcast episode so that she can share her powerful message of why tapping into sisterhood and the power of sister circles is something she wants all women to try, in particular women going through cancer. And so here is Cordelia’s episode, dedicated to her daughter, Loli.And you can now download the guide to sister circles that I promised to make to go with it. And I also ended up creating a web page for Cordelia to share her sisterhood mission with women going through cancer, to encourage them to start up their own sister circles and you get to see beautiful testimonials by the women in her incredible cancer tribe about the difference sisterhood has made to them.VISIT YOURCANCERTRIBE.COM 💗And if you enjoy this episode please come and let Cordelia know over on instagram @coconutandbuttercup x Selina This is a public episode.

  • Another Way - Deepening into Life with Donna Lancaster
    Ooh you are in for a treat this week, because we are diving deep into exploring another way of living with none other than the legendary - one of the leading guides of our time.If you don’t know Donna, then you just wait - she is the wisest of souls. Fearne Cotton agrees with me and calls her ‘the wisest woman I know’ and Emma Watson says ‘she has helped shape the woman I have become’.Donna is a therapist, coach and Elder in training who has been working with individuals, couples and groups for over 30 years. She was co-founder of the Bridge Retreat - the power of which is captured beautifully in the documentary Love(d) and author of the book The Bridge as well as Wise Words for Women.In this episode we dive deep down, right from the start, into a big juicy conversation about life - exploring what Donna means when she talks about the patriarchal trance and how to wake up from it. She explains what Phase 1, 2 and 3 of life are and why so many of us remain stuck in Phase 1 of life. And we explore what it means to become an Elder and how finding your own Elders can be the key to helping you transition into Phase 2 of life where true joy, peace and love are found.Told you we go deep!And if you want more of Donna (which I guarantee you will after this episode), these are the three main links for you to get started with:Website: Deepening Into LifeInstagram: @donnalancsDonna’s newsletter on Substack - sign up here for freeNow sit back and enjoy this episode!x Selina🎙Show notesHere are links and reminders of people, podcasts and courses mentioned in the episode:Elders that Donna recommends: Anne Lamott, Maya Angelou, Desmond Tutu, Caroline Myss, Eckhart TolleFalling Upwards by Father Richard Rohr is all about the Phase 1 and Phase 2 of life🎧 Previous podcast episodes with Donna and me:The day I married myself - listen hereWhy we all need to learn how to grieve - listen here🌳 The Embers idea Donna mentioned has become a reality - now called Elder Wood - you can find out about it in this instagram post here This is a public episode.

  • Reframing love to make relationships work with Matthew Pruen
    If you or anyone you know is struggling in their relationship then this podcast episode is for you.In fact, even if you’re not struggling in a relationship right now, but you want to enjoy a long-lasting nourishing relationship, full of love and intimacy, then this episode is also for you.Because this week we dive deep into the topic of relationships with my special guest, the amazing Relationship Coach, Matthew Pruen.I first came across Matthew’s work three years ago when I attended a Hoffman Relationship Workshop, run by him and his wife Emma. That weekend workshop was absolutely life changing for me and ever since then, any time a friend or client has been struggling in their relationship, I’ve sent them to Matthew and they’ve all had equally life changing experiences with him.There is noone I know who shows us another way of approaching love and relationships quite like Matthew and so I was over the moon when he said yes to coming on the podcast.We explore why so many people seem to be struggling when it comes to relationships, how the Romantic Mythology that dominates our modern-day take on love is setting us up for disappointment in our relationships, why we can get stuck in power struggles for years and what it really takes to create a long-lasting relationship full of trust, love and intimacy.This episode is so rich with wisdom, powerful insights and practical advice from Matthew. I came away from it having had yet more ‘aha’ moments about relationships and where I was getting sucked back into that Romantic Mythology. I can’t wait to hear what you get from it.And if you want to find out more about working with Matthew or Emma visit:matthewpruen.comemmapruen.comretreat.fr This is a public episode.
