Self Love Podcast

In this episode of the Self Love Podcast, Kim explores the power of setting a Big, Hairy, Audacious Goal (BHAG). A goal that stretches you beyond your current capabilities while remaining deeply aligned with your personal values. She shares a practical framework to help you uncover what you would pursue if failure weren’t possible, identify what truly matters, embrace the excitement and fear that come with big dreams, and consider who you need to become along the way. Most importantly, Kim reminds us that we don’t need the perfect plan or to feel completely ready before we begin. Confidence, clarity and momentum are built through action, so the invitation is to dream bigger, take the first step today, and regularly check in to ensure your goal continues to feel meaningful and aligned.

Quotes:
A big hairy audacious goal must be a goal that is big enough, bold enough, and exciting enough to stretch you beyond who you are today.
We are designed to fully grow, fully bloom. Fully be our best versions of ourselves.
I think gratitude and ambition can coexist right next to each other.
You can love who you are today and still be excited about who you are becoming.
You do not need to have the entire plan or have this whole strategy all written out.
Clarity often comes through action.
Confidence comes through taking action and then momentum will arise through taking action.
What can I do today that will move me 1% closer?
Sometimes the greatest gift isn’t actually in achieving it. It is who you become whilst you are pursuing it.
It is about discovering just how much it is possible when you decide to truly show up and back yourself in your own life.
You do matter! Your goals matter.

In this episode of The Self Love Podcast, Kim Morrison chats with author, speaker and business mentor Emma Maidment about the journey from a traditional PR career to building a business grounded in authenticity, personal branding and alignment. Emma shares how her own health challenges led her to listen more deeply to her intuition and rethink what success meant to her. Together, Kim and Emma explore the importance of understanding your personal values, recognising when your business or life is out of alignment, and taking practical steps to create meaningful change. Emma also shares insights from her work helping entrepreneurs find their flow, build magnetic personal brands and turn lived experience into a powerful foundation for business.

The conversation dives into the realities of digital marketing, the importance of testing ideas and listening to the market, and how AI can be used as a productivity tool without outsourcing your own decision making. Emma also opens up about navigating motherhood, grief, stress and the challenges of writing and launching her book, Find Your Flow, and how embracing both the highs and lows of life has allowed her to connect more authentically with others. At the heart of the conversation is a powerful message about self love, listening to yourself early and having the courage to create a life and business that genuinely reflects who you are.

About Emma
Emma Maidment is an author, international speaker and business mentor helping established founders build authority-led personal brands.

Her first book, Find Your Flow, was published by Affirm Press in 2024. It grew out of a decade of learning the hard way that a life which looks right on paper can quietly cost you your health, your intuition and your sense of self. Emma spent years being told her symptoms were in her head before she found the answers, and longer still learning to trust her own voice over the experts around her.

That experience shaped everything she teaches now. Emma works with founders through Flow States Collective, using her Authentic Authority Method to help them build businesses that run on identity and alignment, not pressure, performing or proving. She speaks internationally on authentic authority, personal branding and the end of hustle culture.

Emma is currently based in Crete, Greece, where she is writing her second book and building what comes next.

Her definition of Self Love is: Self love is listening to yourself the first time.

Her favourite quote is: Be who you are.

Quotes:
Seeing an opportunity, seeing a gap and just filling it has always been the way that my brain works.
There is a deep connection between what is happening in my emotional body. What is happening in my physical body and the unhealed parts of myself that is holding me back from really healing.
It was through these practises of yoga meditation, that for the first time I sat still, and I met these parts of myself that I hadn’t been able to reconcile.
I really learned to deeply listen.
When you don’t listen to yourself, you just get redirected, and it takes a lot longer.
Alignment before action is the philosophy that I hold.
You have to actually take the action.
You are allowed to change those top priorities.
You just realise how blocked you are by pushing those should’s in your big wheelbarrow all the way up that hill until the moment where it just becomes too heavy and you are just going against that flow.
Being in that state of flow is that moment of time when you are completely present. You are not thinking about what’s happened or what is going to happen, you are just completely immersed in what you are doing.
Sometimes you have to neglect your feelings and follow the plan that you are on and stick to the boundaries, even when it feels uncomfortable.
The more that you learn to trust, your intuition, your gut feeling. The more powerful you become.
Don’t outsource the thinking, outsource the actual repetitive, boring tasks that could be done by a robot.
I feel like how you lead yourself is how you lead others.
You feel it, and then you allow it to move. You don’t allow it to define you.
Self-love is being willing to back yourself when everybody in the room is telling you something different.
Learn to listen to those knocks.
Truth, translation, transmission and trust is what equals a magnetic brand.
When you really clear on who you are, then you are clear on who you are for. And that is what makes you magnetic.

In this heartfelt Quicky, Kim explores how self-love can look very different during life’s darkest moments. Rather than rushing to find positivity or a silver lining, she encourages us to honour our emotions, sit with the pain, lean on the people we love, and simply take life one day at a time. Kim reflects on how challenging experiences can deepen our appreciation for the ordinary joys of life and, over time, cultivate greater compassion, courage, perspective, and self acceptance. She shares a grounding ritual to support us through difficult seasons and invites us to reflect on what our challenges have taught us about how we want to live. Above all, this is a reminder not to postpone joy, to embrace being alive, nurture your inner light, and choose to live and love fully, even when life feels hard.

Quotes:
I truly think that not one of us escapes these moments in this thing called life.
Sometimes we simply have to live it.
I want to invite you to feel it, to breathe through it, to cry through it.
Self-love is simply sitting beside yourself in the darkness and saying, I’m not abandoning you here. I am not letting you go.
You also don’t have to rush the darkness.
Grief needs room. Heartbreak needs room. Anger needs room, confusion needs room.
You don’t have to immediately turn your pain into purpose.
Some days, our only job is to get through the day.
There is enormous strength and allowing yourself to be human.
The gift can be who we decide to become because we lived through it.
Life is happening right now.
Don’t allow what’s happened to you to extinguish the light within you.
None of us get through this life untouched.
Every single chance you get, shine your beautiful light, because you are here. And that is something worth celebrating.

In this powerful episode of the Self Love Podcast, Kim sits down with Jodi Theisen, founding director of Digital Nomads HQ and recipient of the Corporate Woman of the Year award. Jodi opens up about her journey through motherhood, business, leadership and profound personal loss, including the heartbreaking loss of her eldest daughter. She shares how grief transformed her perspective on life, strengthened her resilience, and ultimately shaped the way she leads and supports others. Together, Kim and Jodi explore the importance of defining who you are unapologetically, embracing vulnerability, and recognising that strength doesn’t mean having to do everything alone.

Jodi also shares the philosophy behind her business success, including her belief in “burning the boats” taking calculated risks, committing fully, and creating a culture where mistakes become opportunities to learn and grow. From putting people before profit to leading with transparency and integrity, Jodi explains how her personal values have become the foundation of Digital Nomads HQ. The conversation returns to the heart of the podcast, self-love. For Jodi, self-love means believing in something bigger than yourself, caring for your own wellbeing, and recognising that you can only truly support others when you also take care of yourself. This is an honest and deeply human conversation about grief, resilience, leadership, motherhood and finding the courage to live fully.

Quotes:
I am very people focussed.
I am not one thing. I am all those things together.
My soul purpose in life is really to make people feel seen.
We really need to be solid in who we are. That takes time.
I really respect people who are confident in who they are.
When you go through loss of any kind, it does harden you because it is painful and so we protect ourselves.
I am so grateful for the hardest times of my life because I would hate to think who I would be and where I would be without them.
Everything that happens to you in life is either a stepping stone or a gravestone.
How we determine which way we go, whether we make it our stepping stone, our growth stone really determines who we are as a person.
You can’t outrun grief.
The most practical thing that I did was just to face it head on. It is almost like you have met your worst nightmare in the ring. Let’s go put your boxing gloves on.
That pain doesn’t go away. You can just incorporate it into your life.
Grief is the price we pay for love.
Life is a special occasion.
I believe I have been given every open door an opportunity from God.
I say yes to as much as I possibly can. I feel the fear and I do it anyway.
I really love things to blossom organically.
It is never a mistake. It is always a lesson.
This is a safe place to make mistakes.
If you don’t make mistakes and if you don’t learn, you are just going to carry on doing it the way that you have always been doing it.
We need to love ourselves. We need to surround ourselves with people who complement our skills and innate strengths, but we also are willing to tell you how it is.
Fill your own cup so you have something to pour out.
Team culture is not just who is in your team, it is who you choose to work with.
Just go for it. Just absolutely go for it. Burn those boats.

In this week’s Quicky of the Self Love Podcast, Kim explores the powerful mantra, “it always works out,” and how choosing trust over fear can transform the way we navigate uncertainty and challenges. Drawing on neuroscience, she explains how the brain predicts potential threats and how the amygdala can trigger stress, while cognitive reappraisal and the prefrontal cortex can help us shift our perspective. Kim shares practical tools for calming the nervous system, including deep breathing, reflecting on past experiences that eventually worked out. She also explores how focusing our attention on possibilities can help us notice opportunities and solutions. Above all, Kim encourages us to trust ourselves, trust life’s timing, and remember that sometimes the greatest outcome isn’t getting exactly what we wanted, but who we become along the way. A gentle reminder to choose self-kindness, cultivate hope, and believe that, somehow, it always works out.

Quotes:
Trusting yourself, trusting your ability to adapt, trusting that even when life doesn’t go to plan, you have everything within your power to respond, not react.
One of the brain’s primary jobs is to keep us safe, not necessarily happy.
Instead of asking, why is this happening to me or why me? You could start to ask, how might this be happening for me?
Wonder what I can learn from this.
If you focus on possibilities, your brain begins noticing opportunities.
When you repeat, it always works out. You are training your brain to search for solutions instead of staying stuck in survival.
Sometimes the blessing isn’t in getting what you wanted. Sometimes it is in becoming who you needed to be.
I trust myself. I trust the timing of my life. It always works out.
