In this final episode of the season, I invite you into a moment of stillness.
Pivots and Plot Twists has always been about connection, reflection, and the messiness of being human. And now, it's time for a pause. I explore what happens when we stop, breathe, and listen—not to fill the silence, but to honor it.
I share my personal reflections on creating the podcast, the power of meaningful conversations, and the beauty of knowing when it’s time to rest. This is an episode about trusting the quiet, and letting it lead the way.
Take a breath. Come home to yourself. We’ll be back soon—with more stories, more truth, and a deeper sense of purpose.

Lisa is a health transformation coach helping high-achieving individuals move from burnout to balance. We talk about the impact of workplace culture on our health, the difference between empathy and compassion, and why listening to your body is one of the most powerful things you can do.
We also dig into how organizations can support wellbeing from the inside out, what future generations won’t tolerate in work culture, and why embracing your uniqueness is a health strategy in itself.

In this solo episode of Pivots and Plot Twists, I explore the power of gratitude—not as a fluffy feel-good concept, but as a real, grounded tool for emotional resilience and connection in hard times.
Gratitude isn’t about pretending things are okay when they’re not. It’s about finding something—no matter how small—to hold onto when the world feels heavy. It’s about remembering that even the smallest acts of kindness can shift not only someone else’s day but also your own.
I talk about why helping others is a form of healing, how gratitude can disrupt despair, and why we all hold more power to uplift than we sometimes realise.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to keep showing up—this episode is for you.

In this episode of Pivots and Plot Twists, I’m joined by Celia Pronto—a powerhouse in digital transformation, an experienced non-executive director, and a deeply connected holistic mentor.
Celia shares how her spiritual journey unfolded unexpectedly during the pandemic and how she’s since woven energy healing, meditation, and gratitude into her everyday life - without stepping away from her high-level corporate career.
We talk about what it really means to raise your vibration, why how you feel matters more than how things look, and how women can learn to trust themselves more deeply, in life and in leadership.
Whether you're climbing the career ladder or standing at a personal crossroads, Celia’s story is a beautiful reminder that business and spirituality don’t have to exist in separate worlds—they can actually make each other better.

In this solo episode, I’m diving into a topic that comes up all the time in coaching sessions and conversations with clients: purpose.
We’ve been fed this idea that purpose is some huge, life-altering thing—you either find it or you don’t. But I believe purpose isn’t a unicorn. It’s not rare, mystical, or reserved for a chosen few. And you’re not behind if you haven’t had some lightning bolt moment.
I’ll share my take on what it actually means to be purpose-driven, how to find alignment in your life without burning it all down, and why listening to the whispers before they become screams can change everything.
If you’ve been questioning what’s next or wondering if you’ve missed your shot, this is the reminder you didn’t know you needed: you’re doing better than you think.

Welcome to Season 4 of Pivots and Plot Twists. This season's theme is SHINING BRIGHT NOT BURNING OUT.
This season is dedicated to stories of hope, inspiration and positivity, in service of helping you live well, love your work and take care of yourself brilliantly.
On this episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Kasia Pietrzak.
Kasia's Bio:
I am here to support people to RE-DISCOVER, CONNECT WITH & EMBODY the authentic version of themselves, so that they can live aligned life and create a ripple effect of positive transformation.
In 2021 I came across Human Design that has changed my life. So much so, that I decided to share with others. I passionately believe in the power of Human Design in supporting us on the journey to our-most authentic-selves and giving us a permission-slip to BE truly ourselves.
I find that experimenting with Human Design helps people to tune inwards and to:
• recognise the innate gifts & talents
• take the power back by listening to the inner authority to make decisions
• follow the breadcrumbs to create an aligned and purposeful life that they desire
In addition to Human Design, I am a Silent Counselling Practitioner. It is a form of Rapid Energy Release, and it has many amazing applications. In my practice, I use it to help clients to move through fear and un-resourceful beliefs that stop them from stepping into their full, authentic version of themselves. And the great thing is that we don't need to talk about it at
all! We use muscle testing, meridian points and breathing technique - all rooted in the body's wisdom to release any stuck energy to help with transformation.
