064: What I Learned from Childhood about the Importance of Embracing Change | Lisa York
Change is hard at first, messy in the middle and gorgeous at the end
[Robin Sharma]
I don’t think I’ve ever reflected on my own childhood as much as I have since becoming a mum myself. I expect you feel the same.
Your childhood experiences shape and mould the things you do as a mum. You’ve bought your rituals from a time when you were a kid yourself into your own family today.
All the fun stuff. Like having pizza and a movie on a Friday night.
But there are also the things that you’ve decided never to do with your own brood. Because you don’t want them to feel the way you did growing up.
I hadn’t realised until I became a mum why I’m so pro change. Why I’m all for taking control of your life. And why I’m a firm believer that you have the power to shape your own future.
Turns out, it stems from my own childhood.
This week on High Five Friday, I talk about the importance of embracing change. Because if you don’t, it can cause a whole heap of problems that you didn’t bargain for.

062: How to Be Strong and Grounded for Your Family | Victoria Kate
Get back in your lighthouse, and let your light shine
If I told you to get back into your lighthouse, you’d probably think I was being rude. But what if that’s the best place for you?
Using a lighthouse as a metaphor, Life Coach Victoria Kate explains why coming out of your lighthouse doesn’t help anyone.
Not yourself. Not your children. Not your family or your friends. Nope. The best place for you is back inside.
Because that’s where you serve everyone best.
This week on High Five Friday, Victoria and I tell you about the importance of staying strong and shining your light brightly. For everyones sake.
