Joy Ambition with Emma LavelleThe Art of Wanting Less Than You're AllowedHave you ever started to say what you want and pulled yourself back before the sentence was even finished?“I want to be rich — but not wealthy. That doesn’t seem fair.” “I want to take up space — but I’m not ready yet.” “I want to go for that job — but I’ll do another certificate first.”This is the art of wanting less than you’re allowed. And most of us have perfected it without even realising.In this episode I’m exploring the moment the bungee snaps you back — why it happens, where it comes fro...

Stay with me.You are your scariest bully.And here’s why that’s actually the best news you’ve received all week.When we fear criticism from others, what we’re really afraid of is that we’ll believe it — and then turn it on ourselves. Our brain doesn’t know the attacking voice is coming from inside the house. It just feels under threat. And when we’re under threa...

Joy Ambition with Emma LavelleUnlocking A Joyful Powerful LifeA video showed up in my Instagram feed this week — sent to me by my friend and colleague Anna — and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it.It’s called Creating a Song With the Audience, and it features a young musician named Jacob, standing in front of an orchestra. He starts simply: strings play something small. Another section joins. Then another. And then — he turns to the audience.That’s the moment everything changes.One comment in the video captured it perfectly: “It wasn’t emotional until the audience was participatin...
