13: The Struggle to Juggle
The struggle is real! Often filed under 'Women's Issues' the struggle to juggle the needs of family and work can be overwhelming. If we're not careful. the dream of 'having it all' can quickly turn into the nightmare of just 'doing it all'.
In this episode we explore why the juggle to manage can often turn into a contortion act, and give advice on how to drop some of those juggling balls without your world falling apart. Yes, like everything else, the answer is your responsibility.

12: How to really succeed at life
Success. What does it mean to you? For many of us, if we don't actually define what it means for us, we can end up striving for someone else's idea of success, and let's face it, who likes sloppy seconds? Success is how you live every day, not some distant goal to strive for.
In this episode, we explore why it's vital to think about your ideal of success, and how to go about defining - and then living - it.

11: Your Thoughts are Fake News!
We have 70,000 thoughts a day... and if you're anything like us, the majority of those are batshit crazy. We think we're in control of everything in our life except our thoughts... but the truth is, the only thing in our lives we have control over is our thoughts. Often though, we just sit in the passenger seat instead of taking the controls. In this episode, we shatter the thought that thoughts are real, and explore how we can stop being driven by damaging ones, and start driving our thoughts to create a mind that minds us.

10: Fun
We tried not to unleash our inner Cyndi Lauper on you and blast out Girls Just Want to Have fun at full volume on this podcast but this week, we are all about the fun…
Remember a carefree, fun and more courageous you?
All too often we get caught up with the kids, house, job, chores, parents, dog and life - and we forget to have fun.
We get all responsible and sensible AND stuck in a rut and we often lose that sense of fun we had when we were younger!
This week we talk about why that happens and more importantly, how can you inject more fun (and joy) into your life every day…
Between You & Me: the podcast for fabulous (but maybe slightly frazzled!) women who want to take charge of their lives. Because let's face it - we'd all love to press pause and get our lives together! Co-hosted by journalist and NLP coach Maria McHale, and writer and The MidLife Coach Alana Kirk.
