Hey Weirdos! It's another solo episode this week, and would you look at that, she's only gone and got the duration down to 20 minutes! She's in her Efficiency era! It's a fun and light episode today, all about a juicy topic - Signs from the Universe. How does it all work? What in the incense stick am I talking about? Is it all a load of tosh or is there any truth in this?

I personally believe that signs from the universe, (or 'Life' if you prefer to be less woo), can lead us in the right direction, give us pointers, affirm our current beliefs, change our course or even give us the answer to a big decision.

In this episode I talk through 3 short stories of how I've used signs from the universe - 2 that came out of the blue that lead to big actions, and one that I asked for in making an aligned decision. Manifestation comes from the action we take after opportunity, so it's important that we first look for the magic in opportunity in order to take the course that is meant for us.

I'll give you tips on how you can work with signs from the universe to give you the guidance you need in life and business, because as we all know, they are so interlinked.

I'm a firm believer in fate, destiny, but also co-creating our reality and using a positive mindset and perspective to shape our future. I hope you enjoy listening along and I would LOVE to hear about any signs from the universe you receive or request.

Hey Weirdos! In this week's episode, I'm super honoured to be sharing a chat with The Self Development Coach, Johnny Lawrence.

Johnny is a certified behavioural change coach, level 3 counsellor, speaker and host of The Self Development Podcast.

​

He helps individuals make lasting positive changes, such as transitioning careers, overcoming addiction, starting a business, or finding an action-based solution to feeling stagnant and stuck. Johnny has spoken at various events, businesses, festivals and charities to share his gift with the world.

​Johnny has set himself the mission of helping as many people as possible create meaningful and permanent change.

In this mind-expanding chat, we talk about Johnny's traumatic past as a childhood witness to domestic violence and a survivor of physical child abuse, as well as his addiction with alcohol. Now 4 years sober, and after helping many individuals through his incredible work, Johnny shares with Work it Weirdo how he's used his childhood experiences to flavour his perspective and career, giving him a unique position to connect with and empower others to move through life's challenges.

We also touch on the following areas:

• Sitting with trauma and emotions in order to move on
• Dealing with triggers
• Reframing fear and bravery
• Improving your relationships through perspective
• Achieving your life dreams
• Being an original
• Navigating people feeling threatened by your success
• Facing adversity and handling challenges
• Communicating effectively
• Handling disappointment and expectation
• Sobriety and coping mechanisms for all addictions

Johnny also talks through the valuable work he does not only in coaching, and via his own podcast, but through public speaking, his upcoming documentary and the future project of his book. This guy is doing it all!

Such an incredible man with a truly inspirational and at times, jaw-dropping journey. His passion and mission are clear and it was such a delight to listen to his story and soak in his wisdom. You are going to feel you can tackle anything after listening!

Hey Weirdos! I am buzzing this week to welcome such a character (or should I say characters?) to the podcast, the Incredible Queen of Wigs, Visibility Strategist, Helen Walker. Helen is on a mission to show women how easy attracting dream clients and making sales really is, by getting confident with video and standing out from the crowd.

In her Instagram bio it says 'I'm the weirdo who actually loves sales', so she is literally THE perfect guest for this show, and I've also had the pleasure of experiencing her larger than life personality in real life. Her bubbly Northern voice is a treat to listen to, and I know you are going to get so much value from this episode.

Taking Reels by storm, Helen brings comedy and her straight talking approach to the forefront to tackle the topic of selling and being visible - something she finds a huge proportion of women in business have huge fears around. Helen empowers women to lead incredible lives, through creating highly successful businesses and flipping the switch on the mindset of female entrepreneurs, particularly those who are telling themselves they are not worthy of their true dreams, they are not good enough and nobody wants to buy from them.

In this episode we cover:

• Believing you aren't boring
• Becoming more visible online
• Why selling isn’t sleazy
• Tackling hang ups about showing your face
• Being your own influencer
• How to earn £5-£8k a month
• Why you aren’t your product
• How wigs became her strategy
• Why Reels should be part of your marketing mix
• Impact online v IRL
• Society’s expectation of being a woman
• And just how to bloody sell more!
