  • 127. The greatest contributions you bring to life with Kim Payne
    2025/10/22

    In this episode, I flip the script on how we think about value as it’s not about titles, tasks, or trophies, but about your true contribution: the qualities and energy you bring to any situation simply by being you.

    Through a fun and heartfelt story about joining a women’s baseball team at age 48, I share how I had to discover what I really brought to the team, and spoiler alert, it wasn’t about I played the game.

    I unpack how getting clear on your natural contributions can completely change the way you see yourself, your work, and your worth.

    You’ll hear why we so often downplay what comes easily, how to spot your “value signature” that shows up everywhere you go, and why owning it is one of the most powerful confidence boosters you’ll ever experience.

    If you’ve ever wondered, “What do I really bring to the table?” - this episode will help you find the answer, own it, and celebrate it.

    Key takeaways:

    o Why your value has nothing to do with your job title, and everything to do with who you are.

    o The surprising life lesson’s learned playing team sport at age 48.

    o How to uncover your “value signature” - the qualities that make you unmistakably you.

    o Why we so often dismiss our real gifts (and how to stop).

    o A simple way to reconnect with your worth when self-doubt creeps in.

    o How your unique contributions create a ripple effect that impacts everyone around you.

    o The secret to being your most authentic, and worthy self.

  • 125. Building the evidence for a life of love and enoughness with Dani Zetzer
    2025/10/08

    In this raw and deeply honest conversation, we meet Dani Zetzer, a family lawyer, founder of Respect Legal, and host of "Diary of a Divorce Lawyer," to explore what courage looks like when life falls apart and you rebuild from the ground up.

    From watching her childhood home repossessed to building her own law firm during lockdown, losing millions in crypto trading, and navigating single motherhood with three kids, Dani's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and radical self-honesty.

    She shares how going on "57 first dates" became the unexpected path back to herself, helping her rediscover what she loves, what she wants, and why rebuilding your life starts with rebuilding your sense of enoughness.

    You'll hear how Dani turned pain into purpose, used rock-bottom moments as her greatest teachers, and how she now helps other women access their courage, whether they're leaving a marriage, starting a business, or rediscovering themselves after years of losing their identity in others.

    This episode is a masterclass in emotional strength, financial independence, self-trust, and the kind of courage it takes to bet on yourself… again and again.

    Key takeaways:

    o Why doing scary things builds evidence that you'll be ok.

    o The surprising lessons from hitting rock bottom and reframing them for good.

    o What losing millions taught her about self-worth, shame, and scarcity.

    o Why bubble baths aren't the answer to real self-care, and what is.

    o The power of curiosity and trying new things at any age.

    o How trusting your gut feeling can save you from years of heartache.

    o Why the most courageous choices are the ones made from love.

  • 124. Letting go to make space for what’s next with Kim Payne
    2025/10/01

    In this solo episode, I open up about one of the hardest (and most freeing) lessons we all face, knowing when to let go.

    From scrapping my first book manuscript to deciding to close a business partnership after six years, I share raw stories of choosing release over attachment, even when it feels uncomfortable.

    Letting go isn't about giving up. It's about creating the space for something better, more aligned, and more life-giving to arrive.

    Whether it's a business, a project, a friendship, or simply an old identity that no longer fits, the moment you release what's weighing you down, you invite in opportunities that energize and excite you.

    This conversation is a heartfelt invitation to ask yourself what you've been holding onto simply because you've already invested so much.

    And what might be possible if you permitted yourself to let it go?

    Key takeaways:

    o Why clinging to something you've outgrown could be blocking opportunities.

    o How to tell the difference between "not ready" and "not right."

    o The surprising gift hidden in abandoned projects.

    o A simple question that reveals whether it's time to walk away.

    o What two women discovered when they faced the truth.

    o Why letting go doesn't always have to be dramatic.

    o The powerful shift when you release what no longer serves you.

  • 122. Unlocking freedom through the science of habits with Dr Tamsin Astor
    2025/09/17

    In this powerful and deeply human conversation, I sit down with Dr. Tamsin Astor, a neuroscientist aka Chief Habit Scientist, to explore what courage really looks like when life tests you to your core.

    Tamsin, a naturally rebellious and fiercely intelligent woman who has never been afraid to question the rules, shares the raw truth of leaving a marriage that no longer served her, navigating her young son’s cancer diagnosis, and redefining who she was - all while modelling courage for her children.

    Through it all, she uncovered her resilience and the power of habits, freedom, relationships, and love to shape a life that feels deeply authentic.

    We dive into her journey from academia to yoga teaching, Ayurveda and executive coaching, and how she became a sought-after speaker and leadership consultant.

    Along the way, she reveals how teaching yoga sharpened her ability to communicate, why vulnerability belongs in leadership, and how conscious choices ripple far beyond ourselves.

    This episode will inspire you to reflect on your own definitions of courage, freedom, and fulfillment, and to consider what habits and choices could help throughout the many seasons of your life.

    Key takeaways:

    o Where true courage really comes from (and it’s not what you think).

    o Why walking away can be the bravest act of all.

    o How life’s toughest challenges can reveal unexpected strength.

    o The surprising link between daily habits and true freedom.

    o What teaching yoga taught her about powerful communication.

    o Why emotional awareness and vulnerability matter in business.

  • 121. The Cost of Staying Silent with Kim Payne
    2025/09/10

    In this episode, I explore one of the hidden drains on our confidence, relationships, and opportunities: silence.

    We often think we’re playing it safe by holding back, but the truth is, staying silent comes with a cost.

    I open up about my own journey from being the shy, quiet girl who silenced herself, to becoming someone who now teaches others how to speak with courage.

    Along the way, you’ll hear stories of clients, everyday examples, and simple tools to help you notice where fear, judgment, or self-doubt might be keeping you silent — and how that’s impacting your life and business.

    Using your voice isn’t just about public speaking. It’s about the everyday moments where you ask for what you want, give honest feedback, or say yes to being visible.

    Your voice influences your presence, energy, and authority.

    And when you choose silence instead, the opportunities, connections, and impact that could have been yours often slip away.

    This episode is an invitation to stop paying the hidden cost of silence - and to start speaking up with courage.

    Because your voice doesn’t just matter, it can change lives, starting with your own.

    Key takeaways:

    o Your voice is so much more than words and sound.

    o Silence has a price.

    o Asking for what you want is an act of courage.

    o The real barrier to speaking isn’t speaking - it’s something else.

    o Simple things you can do to feel more courageous using your voice.

    o Being direct with your words is the kindest thing you can do.

    o Your voice is tied to your worth and influences how people experience you.

    ** Courageous Speaking Masterclass – Wed 22 Oct 2025 **

    If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or professional who knows speaking is the ONE skill that could change the game for your business or career, this is for you.
