In this episode, Amanda, Nicola and Naomi explore a topic dear to their hearts as they unpack the concept of gentle success: what it looks like for each of us and how we can invite more of it into our lives.

Each shares what their relationship with success looks and feels like, and how it’s shifted over time. Naomi explains the questions she uses to help her unpack the concept of success for herself, realising that it’s not a binary and that she can approach it from a mindset of curiosity.

Mandy shares why recognising and appreciating what already is here and now is so important, rather than always looking for the next milestone to achieve. Nic tells a story of a road trip with her dog in a van, and the simple exercise that helped her understand where she was going to invest her time and money.

All three share what they do to create an environment and capacity to feel successful. Remember that in different seasons in our life, the things that we want to direct our attention towards and that we define as ‘success’ can change, and that’s ok.
