The one where you question...what happens when the life you built suddenly falls apart and the version of you that everyone recognised no longer exists?

In this week’s episode of MindKind: The Podcast, Liz sits down with Bree, a business and mindset coach, creative entrepreneur, and one of the most grounded and generous voices in this space. After building a thriving career at Google, Bree’s world shifted overnight when she was made redundant during the pandemic. What followed was an identity unraveling, a season of deep self-reflection, and a courageous leap into entrepreneurship.

Bree shares the full arc of her journey. She speaks about her years at Google, the emotional impact of losing her job, and the unexpected pull toward floristry during lockdown. She then shares how chronic pain redirected her again and how coaching revealed itself as the next chapter she had been preparing for without realising it.

Together, Liz and Bree explore what reinvention really looks like. They talk about the grief of letting go, the importance of healing before rebuilding, the mindset tools that help you move through uncertainty, and the moments that quietly guide you toward your purpose.

This conversation is for anyone navigating change, starting again, or wondering if there is something more aligned waiting for them. Bree’s story is a powerful reminder that losing your way can be the very experience that brings you back to who you are.

The one that explains your default state and why it matters.
Your default state is the foundation you return to when your mind and body feel regulated, centred, and calm. In this episode, we explore how challenges, stress, relationships, and daily responsibilities can pull you away from that state, and how simple mindset tools help you come back to it.
Through science, real life examples, and accessible strategies, you will learn how to recognise when you are stretching beyond your capacity and how to gently guide yourself back to balance. This is a powerful reminder that you are allowed to reset, recalibrate, and choose how you show up each day.

The one that reminds you how powerful a single minute can be.
In this MindSnacks episode, we explore why a simple 60 second pause can shift your mood, reset your nervous system, and bring your brain back to focus. You will learn how a moment of stillness helps the amygdala settle, supports the prefrontal cortex, and brings you closer to your default state, which is the calm foundation you return to when your mind feels steady and safe.
This quick tool is perfect for busy parents, teachers, leaders, and anyone moving through a full season of life. If you need permission to take space, this is it.

The one where we talk to a modern man.

This episode marks something special. It’s the very first interview on the podcast and a conversation that has been on my heart for a long time.

I sit down with someone I know and love deeply, my husband, Jason, to explore what it really means to be a man and a father in today’s world.

This episode is reflective, emotional, and real.

We talk about how the role of men and fathers has shifted since the 90s. What it means to want to do things differently. And how becoming a better dad often begins with facing the parts of yourself that were never taught how to feel, express or heal.

Jason shares, with his big heart, how fatherhood changed his life for the better. He opens up about raising both a daughter and a son, how he's working to break cycles, and what he hopes to pass on to his kids.

This is for anyone who has special men in their lives, is raising boys, or is holding space for a new kind of masculinity to grow.

You’re going to feel this one.

The one that teaches you a simple daily tool to check in with your mind, body, emotions and energy so you can show up with more kindness and self awareness.

The one that brings you back to the version of you who always needed to hear, “I’ve got you.”

This episode is a powerful reminder that the answers you’re looking for aren’t out there, they’re already within you. We unpack what inner child work really is, why it matters, and how the way you speak to yourself shapes how you show up in the world. You’ll also explore how to model self-talk and emotional safety for the young people around you.

Includes a guided meditation to connect with a younger version of you in your favourite place and give them the support they never got.

You’ll leave with more understanding and self-trust as you move forward.

The one that reminds you it won’t always feel like this.

Inspired by a group of overwhelmed Year 7 students, this episode is your gentle nudge to zoom out when life feels heavy.

We’ll explore why your nervous system clings to urgency, how to reframe challenge as just one moment in time, and the powerful question:
“How will I feel after this?”
