  • Hot Takes: Manifestation vs. Wishful Thinking & Unrealistic Expectations within Relationships

    Hot Takes: Manifestation vs. Wishful Thinking & Unrealistic Expectations within Relationships
    Nov 12 2025
    In this episode of The Bold Moves podcast, we discuss the world of hot takes. The bold, unfiltered opinions that make us question what we believe.
    We unpack the truth behind manifestation (disclaimer: it’s more than wishful thinking) and talk about how expecting one person to meet all our emotional needs sets us up for disappointment.
    From confirmation bias to relationship dynamics, this short but thought-provoking episode challenges you to reflect, take action and start owning your beliefs, because that’s all they are, beliefs.
    If you’ve ever wondered whether your “manifestation mindset” is actually helping you move forward or just keeping you stuck this episode is for you. If you’re seeking a partner to fulfill every need… This one’s definitely for you.

    Oct 22 2025
    In this episode of The Bold Moves Podcast, we dive deep into the truth that failure is part of the process. Without failure, there is no growth or success.
    We open up about our own experiences that didn’t go to plan and how those “failures” ended up being the biggest lessons in disguise and needed for us to fail forwards and continue to grow and evolve as a person.
    We cover everything from sports injuries, competing, business and life and how failing is a crucial part in all of these areas. We explore the connection between mindset, resilience and personal growth. Touching on the difference between failure and setbacks and the differences between the two and how shifting your perspective can completely change how you approach this moments in life, which really are just moments in a lifetime.
    This episode is all about normalising failure, embracing setbacks as lessons and recognising that the process and the road to success isn’t linear it’s built on the messy, imperfect moments that push you to grow.
    Key takeaways:
    • Failure isn’t the opposite of success, it’s a key part of it
    • Every setback is a stepping stone toward growth
    • You can’t build resilience or confidence without getting uncomfortable
    • Reflection is where the real learning happens
    • Those who avoid failure also avoid progress

    Stop Making Excuses and Clean Up Your Act... Tough Love, Real Talk & Becoming the Person You Want to Be
    Oct 15 2025
    In this episode of The Bold Moves Podcast, we’re giving out some tough love. The kind that gets you out of your comfort zone and motivates you to move toward the life you actually want. As Nat has just read Can’t Hurt Me by David Goggins, we thought we would talk about what she learnt from the book and what David Goggins is all about.
    Starting with the accountability mirror, and owning your choices.
    We break down how your health, mindset, and consistency are all connected, and why understanding your “why” is the foundation of every real transformation. From Goggins’ cookie jar concept (using your past wins to fuel your next move) to practical ways you can call yourself out and take action, this is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed.
    If you’re ready to stop making excuses and doing what you say you will do this episode is for you!

    The Art of Letting Go: Why We Control Everything, How Childhood Shapes Us, and What Happens When We Release It
    Oct 1 2025
    What is your biggest struggle when faced with letting go?
    Is it the need for validation, the feeling of not being heard, or the fear of losing control? Maybe it’s the uncertainty of what comes next that holds you back. We’ve all been there, stuck between wanting change and being terrified of it.
    In this episode of The Bold Moves Podcast, we explore the art of letting go of expectations, past experiences, and everything that no longer serves you. We dive into why letting go is so hard, what it really means to surrender control, and how to release those hidden attachments that keep you from moving forward.
    We’ll talk about:
    How to let go and move on when fear of change holds you back
    Letting go of control to create space for growth and freedom
    How your childhood experiences and beliefs shape the way you handle change
    Practical strategies to let go of perfectionism and expectations at work so you can share the load, reduce burnout, and become more productive and efficient.
    Letting go isn’t about forgetting or pretending something never happened, it’s about freeing yourself from the weight of what you can’t control.
    If you’ve been holding on too tightly to relationships, old habits, or the pressure to do it all, this conversation will help you discover the freedom that comes with releasing control.
