SLP 281: Self Love Quicky - The Importance Of Loving You
Thursday May 25, 2023
Thursday May 25, 2023
We hear it all the time – love yourself, look after yourself, be good to yourself, be positive – and we all know we should - but the truth is we find it much easier to dislike ourselves, beat ourselves up, knock ourselves and be negative! Why is that? Seriously what is this strange, degrading fallacy all about?
Whilst it is easy to find fault or feel like everything is too hard or that it is different for you, I truly believe there is actually only two choices that every one of us has. Love yourself or loathe yourself. There is no in between.

SLP 280: Content Is About Connecting With Your Audience with Bronte Cresswell
Tuesday May 23, 2023
Tuesday May 23, 2023
‘Content is about connecting with your audience and showing them who you are as a brand. That’s the way that I normally look at content when I am making an assessment on if a piece of content is a strong piece of content. It’s firstly, does it represent your brand? So, is it encapsulating everything that your brand is about? And that’s not just brand colours, it’s the brand tone, it’s the messaging that you are trying to communicate, it’s the way that you are representing that message, and then is it going to appeal to and connect with your audience, and show them who you are and how you can help them, the value in who you are and a piece of content that sits between those two is normally a really powerful piece of content.’ ~ Bronte Cresswell
Bronte Cresswell is an experienced digital marketer and organic social media specialist. With ten years’ experience in the industry, she has worked with hundreds of business owners nationally and internationally. In 2018 she launched a digital marketing agency, which grew to be highly successful before she sold in 2022 to focus on training with her brand Dash Academy. She now trains national companies', in-house marketers, and small business owners in their organic social media strategy. Through this, she has built a name as a powerful young businesswoman, being named the ‘2022 Sunshine Coast Young Businesswoman of the Year’, named in the 30 under 30 of the Sunshine Coast, is a regular guest lecturer at the University of the Sunshine Coast, and is a current active executive member of the Sunshine Coast Young Chamber of Commerce. Bronte shares many tips and ideas on the digital space for all businesses and expresses the importance of taking care of yourself and being super mindful of burnout.
Her definition of Self Love is self-awareness aligned with active intention. Knowing yourself and getting to know all aspects of self is powerful, getting to know yourself and what drives you. Things change over time and there will be transitions which is a big part of self love. Listen and know who you are with focused intention on what you need is so important. Speak to yourself and ask questions that dig deeper that bring out the truth of how you truly feel. It is through these times that you will get moments of insight and truth.
Her favourite quote is:
‘You are right where you are meant to be.’

Quotes:
It really is all about your support network
I want to always show up as my best self
Be open and appreciate life shifts over time
It’s those who take full responsibility for their lives that have the most success
It’s about showing up for yourself in all ways
We will see a shift in the way we do work
It is ok for an industry to change
Shifts are always coming
Social media is 100% a business platform
I look at the best way for a brand to show up
Show yourself authentically and build trust with people
Create content that breaks through social noise will be more engaging
It can feel incredibly overwhelming to be a business owner
There are two options, take on an agency or let them train you to do it
Sometimes you just need to say no
Be really overwhelmingly excited for the future
You are right where you are meant to be

SLP 278: When We Go Through Contrast, We Are Asking with Melissa Schembri
Tuesday May 16, 2023
Tuesday May 16, 2023
‘Ester Hicks, my favourite personal development speaker - The Law Of Attraction - says that when we go through contrast we are asking. So, whenever something bad is happening to us, that’s just us refining what we want, it’s refining our preferences, it’s helping us work out what we do want, because when we know what we don’t want the opposite is generally true. And she says that if you can just open the door a little bit and see a little of what is on the other side that you will be blown away. So, I knew that I needed to separate for me to come into my own power and to find myself, and to start living my life, I couldn’t keep helping someone else. I needed to really find myself. And within 5 years I became one of the top real estate agents on the Coast.’ ~ Melissa Schembri
This is such a beautiful conversation about life, loss, love and leadership. Melissa Schembri is an incredible woman who has learned from many life’s occurrences including contrast, but instead of becoming victim to those circumstances she has risen high, taken the learnings and become a conscious trailblazer who is helping people to create a life of abundance.
Melissa’s track record is impressive. A highly driven professional, Melissa Schembri opened her own property law firm in Mooloolaba at age 25, where she gave advice to property owners for over $2.4 billion dollars’ worth of property transactions.
During this time, Melissa made the “Top 30, Under 30” for leadership and business development, winning Australian Institute of Management’s “Young Manager of the Year” Sunshine Coast 2008.
Melissa then decided it was time to help people on a more personal level and sold her successful law firm to pursue her passion of personal development, becoming a highly sought after life-coach and motivational speaker. During this time, Melissa delivered a TedX talk, coached an Australian Olympian to win Gold, authored a best-selling book and helped thousands of people to understand their incredible power to create the life they desire.
In 2018 Melissa combined her property and personal development skills to become a top selling Real Estate Agent on the Sunshine Coast. It wasn’t long before she was breaking records with the highest waterfront sale of $7.3 million (Mooloolaba/conjunction), the single duplex record $3.45 million (Mooloolaba) and then the highest residential Estate record of $20.5 million (Buderim). To give back to the community, Melissa became a guest speaker and coach for a women’s property investment group, highlighting her incredible knowledge and wealth of experience to help others create financial freedom through property education.
This year, Melissa and her partner Daniel Rees, are launching their own property education business “HELLO FREEDOM” where they educate people on how to retire early through property investment.
With Daniels 25 years experience in finance, property and development, and melissa’s 25 years experience in property, law and personal development they are empowering others to take control of their wealth and create the lifestyle of their dreams.
Melissa’s 5 Secrets to a Happy Workplace include:Contrasts create clarityLet it goTell me a new storyGet happyAppreciation
Her definition of Self Love is Universal love. The Universe loves me and adores me. I am safe. Not a blow was dealt other than from a place of insecurity. Start with loving your dog or your child remembering that a person cannot love you if you do not love yourself first, so be a person of love. Self love is not outside of us. We are God, God is us.
Her favourite quote is from Joseph Campbell:
‘Follow your bliss and doors will open where there were only walls.’

Quotes:The Universe always knows what we truly wantHelping people follow their blissLook for the good things in a personWhen we go through contrast we are askingIt is amazing the abundance that comes your way when in your powerGive instruction without apologySource is a life without contrastThe Universe loves our human experienceOur Universe is constantly expandingIf there is no shade there would only be lightContrast makes us growIntegration is part of the creative processHate the sin not the sinnerDo whatever you need to do to get happyFlick on your wealth switchSelfishly seek your joy because you are no good without itHappiness is just a string of happy momentsWe are here to enjoy the evolving journeyGet aligned and take inspired actionA rampage of appreciationHappiness is a mindsetOn the other side of contrast is growthOur power is in the focus of nowSay what you do want not what you don’t want

SLP 276: Unresolved Grief Is Where The Pain Lies with Rachel Pope
Tuesday May 09, 2023
Tuesday May 09, 2023
‘That’s because of unresolved grief, that is what I help people to move forward through and resolve all the complex grief emotions. Because grief is an umbrella. It’s not just sadness. Even if we allow the sadness to flow there’s still other conflicting emotions that come with grief. There’s guilt, shame or regret and it’s almost always about things we wish we could have said or done differently or things we wish somebody else could have said or done differently. So unresolved grief is where the pain lies.’ ~ Rachel Pope
Grief is something we will all experience in our life, and we all may feel the topic itself is a huge one. Grief is not just the loss of someone we love, it can be loss of freedom, loss of what was, a loss of a job, financial stability, career, relationships, education, connection and even hope. Rachel Pope is someone who knows loss well. At 17, Rachel Pope lost her Dad (age 47) to cancer, and eight years later, her eldest brother in a tragic car accident. Little did she know that her grief journey would come full circle with the death of her husband, at the same age and from the same cancer as her Dad. Their children were six and four years old.
Highly admired for her positivity and work as a Grief Specialist, Rachel inspires people to recreate a life of gratitude, growth, and healing beyond loss. She has spoken to many health and wellbeing groups and has been interviewed on plenty of podcasts spreading her amazing message. Rachel helps people to feel empowered to take action and to make positive changes in their life, while still honouring their grief and loss.
As someone who has experienced compounded loss in her life, Rachel's personal mission is to lift the lid on grief, one conversation at a time.An Author and Grief Coach, her niche is facilitating evidence-based, Grief Recovery Method®️Support Groups, and Helping Children with Loss Programs. Rachel's book 'Gifts from Grief' and motivational speaking events have transformed the lives of thousands who have found a new purpose, beyond the pain of grief and loss.
This Self Love Podcast interview is incredible, it is open, raw, loving and real. And it is important to note that if this interview triggers any pains, heartache, upsets or loss Rachel has invited you to reach out.

Her definition of Self Love is telling your emotional truth
Her favourite quote is from the back of her book:‘Life’s too short to miss making memories.’
Quotes:Grief is a much-needed topic that needs more discussionHow is there even a gift in this process?There are so many depths to griefThe way we move forward is the only control we haveThere is the gift of growth, perspective, gratitude, compassion and contributionGrief is an umbrella it is not just sadnessThere is a continuous perpetual cycleGrievers are not brokenShow up and listenHave really open-hearted conversations and create a villageTell your emotional truthGo first as adultsNotice what inspires, activates or triggers youThe grief cycle was never written for griefGrief is a normal reaction to lossGrief is the conflicting feeling with any change of a familiar pattern and behaviourGrief recovery is deep workTo heal fully we need to heal all thingsTime doesn’t healTake inspired actionJoin a group onlineLove is all that matters

Tuesday May 02, 2023
Tuesday May 02, 2023
When envisioning all that I wanted Phenomenal Feminine Entrepreneurs to do for you, I knew having Kim Morrison on would be a must. She truly is the consummate feminine entrepreneur.
With a wealth of knowledge that can’t help but fill your heart and mind with a delicious sense of all that is possible, I know you will get so much from this interview.
In starting her business, Kim Morrison wanted to be the largest aromatherapy company in the southern hemisphere. But, as time went on, she realised her true reason, her why, is to support one woman to tap into their innate healing power, nourish and nurture her family through the medicinal qualities of plants, herbs, and essential oils and nature.
Beyond that, her bigger why has always been to create a beautiful legacy for her family.
I don’t doubt your heart and mind will be filled with seeds of possibility once you’ve listened to this interview
Enjoy!

SLP 273: Self Love Quicky - Healing After Surgery
Thursday Apr 27, 2023
Thursday Apr 27, 2023
Surgery is a big deal and for many getting over the surgery is even bigger. Your surgeon does his part while you are in the hospital but when you leave, recovery is your challenge and your responsibility. Here are 10 ways to help speed up the healing process so you can get back to life as quickly as possible.
1. Use Essential OilsSmell is very closely linked to our emotions. When things smell good you naturally feel better. Hospitals may not smell bad, but for many they have a very clinical chemical aroma. Placing a drop of rose oil on your heart for strength, peppermint on the temples for clarity or to relieve headaches, sandalwood on the tummy if feeling nervous and for grounding and lavender on the base of the neck to stimulate the vagus nerve which controls the functioning of most significant organs in the body. You can also use blends from Twenty8 like Instant Calm and Immune Boost.
2. Read Inspiring WordsTake a good book with you. Something that lights you up, inspires and encourages you to be your best self. For some that could be a novel but for others that could indeed be a wonderful chance to do some powerful self-growth too. Download Audible if you fancy listening to a good book too.
3. Self-Hypnosis and MeditationOne of the best ways to prepare your incredible body for surgery is to have a calming, healing and inspiring self-hypnosis routine or listen to a powerful meditation focused on strength, healing and recovering. This can be an incredible tool post-surgery too to alleviate pain and any feelings of being uncomfortable. Speak to a Hypnotherapist or download a meditation from Insight Timer.
4. Give Your Body The Right FuelAlthough you may not feel like eating after surgery, it is important to provide your body the needed energy to recover. Protein is very important to the healing process, so choose your free range meats wisely and go for organic chicken, eggs and fish. Foods containing iron and B12 can help the body form needed new blood cells.
5. Pure Blackcurrant PowderOften found in fruits we know Vitamin C helps to boost the healing process. So does Camu Camu and Pure Blackcurrant Powder. Blackcurrant is also very high in anthocyanins which offer antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities.
6. Get MovingAs soon as is possible it is important to move your body. Movement increases the flow of blood, which aids in healing. Walking can help prevent harmful blood clots also. Mild activity helps reduce the chances of developing pneumonia. When the doctor gives approval, start therapy to stretch scar tissue and regain muscle strength.
7. Drink Your FluidsGetting as many quality fluids into your body post-surgery is imperative. Of course, number one is filtered water but you may feel like watered down organic juices too. A favourite of mine has been lemon, orange and manuka honey hot drinks.
8. Eat Fermented FoodsTo help heal the gut from any medications required for surgery ensure you replenish your health with fermented foods, pre and pro-biotics and things like kimchi or sauerkraut with meals. These will help heal the microbiome and support you to recover from the anaesthetic.
9. Follow Good AdviceOne thing I have heard medical specialists say is you do not have to be the hero. If in pain take the medication, if you feel exhausted, rest. Follow the surgeons advice to protect the part that was operated on. You might also like to take the advice of a chiropractor, naturopath, herbalist and homeopath (or any therapist you admire) in the healing process too.
10. Give Yourself Permission To RestAs tempting as it might be to get back to your normal activities it is incredibly important you respect your body’s need to rest and recover. A tricky one for someone like me but one you must do or else your body may enforce more rest by getting sick, inflamed or injured. Accepting support and help may also not be easy but allow yourself to be taken care of in the same way you would want to care for someone you loved.

SLP 272: Belief In Yourself Takes Time with Amy Bennett
Tuesday Apr 25, 2023
Tuesday Apr 25, 2023
‘The more that I leant into who I was, became who I was, the more people I felt courageously opened up to be that themselves as well. It doesn’t have to be pink hair – I mean I’m just crazy enough to do that, that’s probably my Danish Viking warrior blood, we’re pretty wild – but really belief in yourself takes time. Having good people around you that pick you up and build you up. I definitely am the first person to say I can be really horrible to myself, and I guess when you say those things aloud and other people tell you that it’s not a nice way to speak to yourself. So, having good people in your corner. But be that good person to other people for that reason. Compliment people every single time you see something beautiful about someone.’ ~ Amy Bennett
Amy Bennett is a passionate and proud woman who grew up truly valuing the power of community. Inspired by her beautiful mother, Amy is committed to give as much as she can to her community and help make the Sunshine Coast one of the most desirable and sought after places to live.
Amy understands what having a place to call ‘home’ means. And it is this love of helping people make their dreams come true that she is now assisting her clients, and the Sunshine Coast community, with all of their real estate needs.
A vital part of the team for over 6 years, Amy has held various positions including as our Operations & Marketing Manager playing an instrumental role in establishing the Community Giveback program which has contributed to over 200+ local charities.
Professional, hardworking, and caring, she prides herself on telling the story of her client’s properties and the benefits of a Sunshine Coast lifestyle through curated campaigns that include advancements in technology that provide a seamless sales process for buyers.
Clients describe Amy as “committed”, “vivacious”, “energetic”, “astute”, “well researched”, “high attention to detail”, “passionate”, “a marketing genius”, “professional” and “exceedingly helpful with a lovely cheerful nature”. Specialising in the beautiful Kawana Island area, Amy believes in keeping the ‘real’ in real estate, providing six-star service, and ensuring her clients are supported throughout their property journey.
Her definition of Self Love is powerful. I just want everybody to love themselves. We’ve only got one chance. Everything we have other people would envy. Self-love is being fair to yourself, give yourself a break. Self-love is looking in the mirror and you are ok. We’ve got this. Be proud.
Her favourite quote is from her mentor Karen Hannah.
‘Get curious not furious.’

Quotes:
My mum is an absolute superstar learned from her the importance of giving back
We were not allowed to be bored.
Hard work I learned as a necessity.
I am selling that sunshine and magic
It doesn’t happen unless you do it yourself
You have to be courageous to give to others
People are dealing with their own concerns and insecurities
Belief in yourself takes time
Don’t think about it, fear holds you back
If you think something say it
Say nice things and do good things
All will be well
We don’t always need to know everyone’s business
Switching off and having that break is good
Apply your own lense with good people around you
Before, during, after or under, over, off
Dreams do come true, heart and souls can work together
There is no such thing as a coincidence
If I don’t have it in the tank I can’t give it
We cannot be everything to every body
And it’s ok to not be 100% at every thing
Self-care is stopping and letting my brain slow down
I hope every single person has that someone who will be there for them
We often do what we wish we had
Get curious not furious

SLP 270: Align Yourself To Big Energy with Alice Mackinnon
Tuesday Apr 18, 2023
Tuesday Apr 18, 2023
‘Surfing brought joy back into my life and I just kind of sobbed as I paddled out into the line-up and a Brahminy kite was flying overhead, and I just sobbed at the gift of choosing joy again in my life, and the ocean brought it back in for me. Which is what it did when I learnt how to surf at 46 as well. There was just this experience of choosing joy and choosing the wild inside that surfing brings because you are immersed in the ocean and there’s big energy out there sometimes and you get to align yourself to big energy and as your skills in surfing grow, there’s kind of an alchemy that happens where instead of being wiped out by big energy, you get to hitch a ride on it.’ ~ Alice Mackinnon
Dr Alice MacKinnon (PhD) is a mindfulness martial artist. Her work focuses on presenting and practising dynamic, hands-on and embodied practices that take mindfulness from a worthy idea into the rough and tumble of daily life – at work, in the community, and in the home and family. Alice is a long-time practitioner of meditation, yoga, qigong, surfing and fitness – these are the foundations of mindfulness as a martial art in her own life.
For over 24 years, Alice was a professional and community environmental sustainability educator, consultant and communicator. She earned a PhD in Adult Learning at the University of Technology Sydney, that focused on transformative education and multiparty stakeholder negotiation and their potential to create systemic change. The insights gained from that sustained research continue to inform her work today.
At the age of 50 years old, Alice stepped aside from the environmental sustainability field and retrained to gather fitness, yoga, surfing and qigong instructing under the applied mindfulness umbrella. She hosts community and online classes in fitness, yoga and qigong. She facilitates and hosts public retreats and workshops in mindfulness and well-being. She is a consultant and facilitator to business and community organisations in the areas of applied mindfulness, health and well-being, healthy psychosocial workplaces, and emotional intelligence.
Alice collaborates with her wife Jennifer Jefferies, an internationally renowned speaker and naturopath, to host the Smart Sassy Seniors podcast and live events. These are gathering enthusiastic audiences in Australia and around the world.
Alice is also a published author with three books:
“Expanding Green Strategies: Creating change through negotiation” (2009)
“The dharma of surfing: wisdom from the water for life” (2016)
“Surfing as a Dance: How one woman found grace in and out of the water” (2018)
Her fourth book will be released in June/July 2023 and is called “Surfacing: Choosing Resilience, Recovery and Love”.
Alice’s formal qualifications include: PhD, Masters in Applied Science (Social Ecology), Graduate Diploma Education (English and History), Bachelor of Arts (Journalism and Public Relations). She is also a qualified and experienced Fitness Instructor, Yoga Instructor and Qigong Instructor. For six years she was also a Surfing Instructor on the Gold Coast helping mostly middle-aged women grasp their dream of surfing.
Most recently Alice is trained in Trauma Informed Practice, Mental Health First Aid, Gentle Somatic Yoga, Creative Community Recovery Facilitation, Rites of Passage Facilitation, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and PSYCH-K.
Her definition of Self Love is to just take a deep breath, I think perhaps to back yourself to go I am here. I am here. I have work to do. I have a purpose in being here I will do this. I will show up. I will find what my purpose is. I will do this with curiosity and humility and belief that I am here for a reason. And whatever I need to do whatever paths, guides practices I need to find to help me to do that, I will do.
Her favourite quote is from Leonard Cohen:
Ring the bells that still can ring.
Forget your perfect offering.
There’s a crack in every thing.
That’s how the light gets in.

Quotes:
I have a brain that loves to study and create
Life these days is about living, weaving and creativity
I have learned to choose joy again
Surfing brought joy back into my life
There’s kind of an alchemy that happens where instead of being wiped out by big energy, you get to hitch a ride on it
You can experience big joy with big energyI just wanted to find lasting love
Working with the subconscious and on your heart creates
Peel back the layers with kindness
When we are curious, we get to suspend all judgements
Sit beside your emotions and welcome them in
Gently ask yourself questions fearlessly
A good therapist will hold your hand and guide you through the darkest times
We are the midwives of a new epoch
We have a responsibility to embrace this new time
We have the means to make a difference
The breath is the bridge
Ask what brings you joy and lifts the spirit and heart
Follow the path of joy and open the gate
