Episode notes

Let me introduce you to the glorious Nat, we caught up a few weeks ago to record this episode and I got so much from our chat. Natalie writes Baggagereclaim.com where she helps people-pleasers, perfectionists and overthinkers to declutter the emotional baggage that creates unhealthy relationships, unfulfilling careers and low self-esteem. An established blogger for over sixteen years, she’s authored and self-published several books and hosts The Baggage Reclaim Sessions podcast.
