DIGITAL DETOX

I hope 2017 has been a special year for you and your family, one where you haven’t pushed anything off and you’ve tried to live immediately.

Firstly, thank you for your support and friendship this year.

I love this time of year as it is like the changing of the guards. One year is coming to its end, while another is eager to begin. A time of reflection and a time for planning and mapping out your goals for the next year.

Over the Christmas period I have decided to go on a digital detox for a few weeks—unplugging to unwind, disconnecting to reconnect, and switching off from social media to be more present and to slow down with my family.

I will be launching the Summer Series of the Live Immediately Podcast from next week for four weeks. This is where I’ll be diving into the podcast vault and dusting off some older episodes that I think you’ll love if you’re a new comer to the podcast, and if you’ve been listening over the years, these are episode that I think you’ll enjoy revisiting over the holidays on long drives.

If you feel that you’ve been looking down a lot this year, instead of up at life unfolding or reaching for your phone to numbly flick whenever you’re starting to feel a little bored. Why not embark on your own personal digital detox? Have a few weeks of no social media, no phones or tablets, no distractions.

Whatever you decide to do, I hope you and your family spend time doing the things you love with people you love over the break.

I’m off to play at the beach. See you in the New Year.

Have fun & live immediately

PODCAST 065: EVELYN RENNICH – LIVING SMALLISH WITH A FAMILY OF SIX

Living smallish can sometimes be a challenge, as you need to intentionally think about each item you have and be considerate to which new items you bring into your life.

It is even more of a challenge when you throw a husband and four children into the mix. But that is the beautiful challenge my guest today, Evelyn Rennich, lives each and every day. 

I love Evelyn’s story, as her minimal way of life is one that started from a financial need, but became one she fully embraced.

Evelyn and I dive into many topics in this episode; learning through difficult times, the work involved with being intentional, and how living minimally can help with that feeling of being buried by the pace of life.

We also discuss family and the affect a cluttered home has on our children, cluttering up our calendar, gift giving at Christmas time, protecting the white space in your life, and holding onto things loosely, a phrase I absolutely love.

Evelyn is a loving mother who works things out the best way she can for her family.

I hope you enjoy x

PODCAST 064: NATALIE SISSON – HOW TO CREATE PERSONAL DAILY FREEDOM

What does freedom mean to you? 

What does it look like?

How could you inject more freedom into your daily life? 

My guest today, Natalie Sisson, is all about creating freedom in business and adventure in life. 

For the past seven years Natalie has been living out of her suitcase, while running her business and travelling to over 70 countries.

In this episode Natalie talks about building a business that supports your lifestyle not one that takes over it, the importance of taking action to get past the first hurtle, minimal living, and the future of work.

But don’t be confused, this episode isn’t purely about business or about travel. It is about cultivating personal daily freedom and aligning your values. How ever that might look for you.

Natalie is obsessed with freedom and is on a mission to help you simplify your life, feel connected, live mindfully and develop personal freedom. 

As 2017 draws to a close and we start thinking about how we want 2018 to unfold, Natalie has created the “How to Plan Your Ideal Freedom Year Workshop”. 

If you’d like to set your vision for 2018, map out your quarterly, monthly and weekly actions, have access to Natalie’s 6-step daily success plan, and so much more, then you should check it out. You never know where your freedom could take you.

Natalie definitely walks her talk, and has done across many countries, she lives life to the fullest, and takes action to create personal daily freedom.

I hope you enjoy x
