• PJ Nation: Women Choosing Comfort & Honoring Rest

  A simple TikTok question about pajamas turned into 25,000+ views in less than 24 hours and hundreds of comments — and revealed something big: women everywhere are choosing comfort first. Not as giving up, but as tuning in. This week, Eimear explores why PJs-by-7pm is becoming the new normal… and a surprisingly honest expression of who we are now.This episode started with one question I posted on TikTok: “How early are you getting into your PJs now that the days are shorter?”The response? Over 25K views and a flood of comments from women saying things like:“As soon as I get home.”“Pulling the bra off in the car.”“I’m 46 — I don’t have the energy to be uncomfortable anymore.”“Day PJs, night PJs, garden PJs.”What I thought was a tiny moment turned into a whole conversation:Women choosing comfort. Women choosing rest.Women choosing themselves — without apology.In this episode, I talk about:Why so many of us are leaning into comfortHow PJs have become the unofficial “clocking out” signalThe little rituals women use to unwindAnd how my fashion-loving self is still very much here… just with softer clothes in the eveningsI also share a few pajama brands I love — nothing fancy, just things that feel good — and I’d love to hear your favourites too.Brands mentioned:Asceno (women-founded) : https://www.asceno.com/collections/pyjamasEberjey: https://eberjey.com/collections/the-cozy-shopOlivia von Halle (navy velvet set = Christmas list!) : https://oliviavonhalle.com/collections/luxury-silk-pyjama-setPrintfresh (women-owned, fun & budget-friendly) : https://printfresh.com/👉 Watch the original TikTok here: https://www.tiktok.com/@coacheimearzone/photo/7571695181049744670Your turn: Tell me your PJ routine — and your favorite brands, especially women-owned ones.

• From Embarrassment to Expansion: Crossing the Cringe Hurdle

  This week we look at embarrassment—how it quietly shapes our choices, limits our visibility, and holds so many midlife women back from doing what they truly want.We explore why embarrassment feels so threatening, how it gets hardwired early in life, and why it often resurfaces just when we’re ready to step into something bigger. I share a few stories from my own life that seemed small at the time but stayed with me for decades.We talk about how to meet embarrassment with compassion, how to recognise The Dreaded Experience when it shows up, and how to start reclaiming your power by unlearning the messages that kept you quiet for too long.Share Your ThoughtsCONNECT WITH EIMEAR Free Resources and More: https://stan.store/eimearzone Explore Working With Eimear: Book a Call: https://eimearzone.as.me/breakthrough 📱 Instagram: @eimearzonecoach 💻 Website: eimearzone.com 📧 Email: [email protected] Subscribe to Girl, Choose Yourself on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. © 2025 Eimear Zone Coaching.
