On today's show, I interview Mindset & Performance Coach, Author and Thought Leader Polly Bateman. In today’s episode we are talking about how you can let go of the past, especially loosen the grip to all those "should of, would have, could have, if only..." thoughts. We are the sum of our past experiences but our future doesn’t need to be. I hope you enjoy todays chat, Polly has helped me along my journey and I hope she does the same for you. This interview was recorded before the protests and that is why they aren't mentioned, more interviews to come on that. I purposely had a break last week from uploading my show to honour the Black Lives Matter movement. I am committed to do all that I can do ensure we live in an anti-racist society. I am focusing my energies on looking at how I can make therapy more accessible to women of colour low socio-economic communities and pledge monthly to the LoveLand Foundation.

A little bit about the NOT PERFECT podcast. Thank you for reading this and thank you for being here. The intention for this podcast is to share conversations on the subjects that can nurture our life from the inside. Just like physical exercise takes work and commitment, I believe our emotional health requires the same attention. Life throws curve balls unexpectedly and these can feel much more manageable when we know more about our mind. I hope these episodes are helpful in sharing tools, tips and insights into our brilliant hardware that can feel faulty but always fixable. I would love to hear from you if you have any feedback or guest suggestions, please find me on instagram @poppyjamie and @happynotperfect.
