Do you make a plan to start the new school term, or do you just go for it and see what unfolds? Today, we're going to have a look at why things go wrong and if there's anything we can do about that. I have a secret formula which I call doughnuts! Bring your journal, paper and pen because we are going to work it all out together. So next time something goes wrong, you can see it from a different perspective, and maybe even stop putting yourself under so much pressure to get it right all the time.

Episode 83 – The One Where It All Went Wrong

Are you a bookworm who not only loves books, but enjoys getting your creative on and learning some nifty self development tools? Would you like to learn how to have more fun, learning to feel confident & care free with less anxiety. I have a special invitation for you & a free activity guide.

Smiley Invitation for Summer Fun

Today, we're meeting 10 sensitive worried children who are super stressed out with life and looking for peace, fun and friendship. Each one is facing a struggle or challenge that is giving them lots of worries and big scary feelings. They've kindly agreed to share their stories with you. I believe that when we share our stories it’s comforting to know that we’re not the only one. We’re not alone and there is nothing wrong with us. There is definitely nothing wrong with you! I wonder if you can see yourself in one or more of their stories. Have a listen and let me know.

You can do anything even when life gets tricky. Tricky times (hello Coronavirus), tricky things (starting something new or doing something for the first time) and I guess we could probably add tricky people into the mix. Life is full of trickiness, but when we believe in ourselves and we believe that we can handle anything life throws our way, it feels less scary and more peaceful. As the drama of the Corona Crazy unfolds, I want to help you feel as peaceful as possible.

The way you start your day really sets the tone for what's to come. Do you start slow and feel ready for the day ahead? Or are you rushing about stressed - not able to enjoy it for fear of being late or forgetting something? Today I'm going to share with you how you can make mornings more enjoyable and less stressful. I want you to start your day with a smile! Not one on your face - that would be nice, but even if you're grumpy in the morning, you have an inner smile that you can activate.

The Coronavirus has become a global pandemic and changed our daily life as we know it. The planet has slowed down, the schools are shut and people are being asked to stay at home. With all this time on our hands, can we turn this to our advantage or are we drowning in a sea of worry and feeling stuck with nothing to do. Let's have a chat about that.

Episode 43 – The One with the Coronavirus

  Smiley’s message for November This month the message is about finding our place in the world. Listen to the message and learn how you make a difference and bring your own brand of awesomeness to the world. This might be helpful if you are nervous or not feeling very confident. We can chat about the things which might be holding you back. Also in this episode, you'll wander into the filing cabinet of your mind and remove all the folders which tell you that you can't do things. Anything is possible and I want to show you that you can do it and you can believe in yourself!   What you'll hear this episode:  On the last Sunday of every month, I usually go live on my Facebook Page to give out messages to all the children (and Mums!) who want them. The energy of the cards is powerful and will now be broadcast on the podcast to all the families that need to hear what they have to say. The Smiley Thought Cards give inspiration to so many! We can draw strength from their wisdom. The cards want the very best for us. This is also an opportunity for us to stop and go within. We need to make time to do that. It's a great life skill to teach children. To reflect and help ourselves. Smiley Thought Card for November:   Photo Message: I make a difference to the world Photo: boy feeling free in nature and determined to climb up a tree Card Type: Love (hearts) Reverse Message: Sprinkle your awesomeness around like confetti. It will inspire others to do the same.         Want to learn more about how to be with and understand your feelings? There are many classes in the Energy Pod replay library.
