Introducing The Confidence Sessions: A New Way of Understanding Confidence
This summer I'm doing something different on the podcast.Every week I'll be releasing a short confidence session — a recorded meditation designed to be listened to daily. Save it, come back to it each morning, let it settle into you. Twelve weeks. Twelve sessions. A summer of quietly, powerfully coming home to yourself.But before the sessions begin, I want to share what confidence actually is. My definition — the one I've arrived at through years of coaching women and through my own long, imperfect journey — might surprise you. And there's some fascinating research on what confid...

Voices from The Bench
exocad Insights 2026 Part 1: Marjorie de Andrade, Dr. Dwight Pate, & Dr. Eimear O'Connell
Hello voices from the bench community, John Wilson here and I wanted to share some news about the evolution of the Programill lineup. Most importantly, Ivoclar’s new PrograMill 7. What stands out right away is the reduced air consumption this mill requires, but what you'll notice first is that impressive new touchscreen. For us, the biggest advantage has been increased spindle power. My laboratory's known for these larger cases with complex geometries, and I can tell you that extra power really makes a difference. Next time you see your Ivoclar representative, be sure to ask about the PrograMill 7 and te...

The Ambition Penalty: Stefanie O'Connell on Why Ambitious Women Keep Getting Pushed Down
So many women are burned out, running on empty, and quietly wondering if they just need to try harder, speak up more, be more assertive, or do something differently. We've been implementing all the advice, and we're left exhausted and frustrated.I am joined this week by journalist and author Stefanie O'Connell, whose new book, The Ambition Penalty: How Corporate Culture Tells Women to Step Up and Then Pushes Them Down, is out this month.

You achieved the thing, hit the goal, but somehow it still didn't feel quite enough. Meanwhile, someone else's success lands like a small deflation you can't quite explain, and you feel vaguely ashamed of both.This is one of the most raw and personal episodes I've recorded. That's because I lived this one deeply, and for a long time.In this episode, I get honest about where the comparison trap really comes from — long before social media handed it a megaphone — what it quietly costs you, and the only thing that has ever truly freed me f...

Strive If That's Your Thing — But What If It Didn't Have to Be So Hard?
You're doing everything right. The work, the discipline, the showing up. And yet somewhere underneath all of it is a tiredness that a good night's sleep doesn't touch. A sense that you're pushing against something that shouldn't require quite this much pushing.What if it didn't?This week I've been revisiting the teachings of Neville Goddard — a mid-twentieth-century mystic whose work found me through Wayne Dyer's Wishes Fulfilled and has never really left. What he teaches is quietly radical. Not a productivity system. Not a manifestation formula. Something older and stranger and more hopeful than ei...

Anxious, Exhausted, Always People Pleasing? The One Root Cause.
We spend our lives building elaborate systems to avoid feeling certain things. And we don't even realise we're doing it. We call it being organised, being responsible, being careful. We call it managing. But underneath all that managing is something much simpler — pain we decided a long time ago we couldn't afford to feel.And it costs us everything. Our energy, our relationships, our sense of aliveness. We were not put here to protect ourselves from feeling. We were put here to live.I re-read Michael Singer's The Untethered Soul this week, and I'm sharing on...

What Do You Want? Reclaiming Desire After Years of Putting Everyone Else First
If someone asked you right now what you want — truly want, for yourself, not for anyone else — could you answer? For so many women in midlife, that question lands like a small panic. Not because life is bad. But because somewhere in the years of partnering, mothering, working, and showing up for everyone else, the thread back to yourself got very thin.This episode is about finding it again.There is a belief at the heart of this conversation — that we arrive in this life already knowing something.

The Cost of Being Easy to Be Around: The People-Pleasing Pattern Nobody Talks About
Are you the one who volunteers first? Who over-delivers without being asked? Who smooths the awkward silences, anticipates what everyone needs, and makes herself indispensable — in friendships, at work, in her family?Most of us were never taught that being easy to be around is a pattern worth examining. It looks like warmth. It looks like generosity. But underneath it, for a lot of women, is something much older — a quiet fear that if we stop performing, we might not be chosen.In this episode, I get honest about where this pattern comes from, what it's...
