How much of your life is shaped by what other people might think?The decisions you don’t make.The things you don’t say.

The dreams you go for (or don't).The version of yourself you quietly edit to stay safe, liked, or understood.In this solo episode of Self-Worth School, I explore why caring too much about other people’s opinions can quietly shape your decisions, confidence, and sense of freedom - and how to loosen its grip so you can actually live your life.In it, I cover:- Why caring what people think sometimes feels so intense (the neuroscience behind it)- How fear of judgment shows up in your choices, boundaries, and confidence- A simple “relevance filter” to help you decide which opinions matter- How self-worth gives you the power to decide what you let land, what you believe, and how you respond.This isn’t about ignoring everyone.

It’s about stopping other people’s opinions from running your life or impacting your peace, happiness and confidence.If this lands, share it with a woman who needs the reminder that she gets to choose herself.

For so many women, clutter isn’t really about “the stuff.”

It’s about overwhelm.

It’s about feeling stuck.

It's about running a busy life and home and not feeling like you have the time.

It’s about a mind that feels as chaotic as the room you’re standing in.

It's about how it affects how you feel about yourself.

In this powerful episode, I'm joined by Valerie Huard - a trauma-informed decluttering coach whose own journey with CPTSD led her to discover how deeply physical clutter mirrors emotional clutter.

Together, we explore:

💛 why clutter is never about laziness

💛 how trauma, burnout, or ADHD make clutter feel impossible to manage

💛 the link between declutter and your self-worth

💛 Valerie’s four-step decluttering framework that helps create lasting change

💛 how simple tools (like gloves!) can reduce overwhelm for neurodivergent minds

💛 what it looks like to build a home environment that supports your wellbeing

This is not an episode about having a Pinterest-perfect home.

It’s about creating space - mentally, emotionally, and physically - so you can breathe, and feel happy and confident again.

So many women grow up learning to distrust, criticise, or shrink their bodies (smaller = more attractive) - and it quietly erodes confidence, self-worth, and joy.

In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by Kim Basler, a speaker, coach, and former fitness industry professional who walked away after 25 years to do the deeper work of helping women heal from diet culture and rebuild a compassionate, connected relationship with their bodies.

Together, we explore:

💛 why body image struggles intensify in midlife

💛 how diet culture disconnects women from self-worth

💛 the emotional and nervous system roots of body dissatisfaction

💛 how to differentiate self-care from self-punishment

💛 daily practices that gently build body peace

This is an honest, tender lesson on coming home to yourself - not by changing your body, but by changing your relationship with it.

So many women have been taught that their sexuality is something to hide, downplay, or perform - but what if pleasure is simply an act of coming home to yourself?

Reconnecting with your sexual self isn’t about performing confidence - it’s about feeling present, alive, and safe within your own body.

In this episode of Self-Worth School, Rosie is joined by Kayla MacDonald, a food freedom and embodiment coach who helps women break free from self-sabotage and finally feel safe, sexy, and at home in their bodies.

She's the creator of Food Freedom Fantasy, a sensual, story-driven method that uses archetypes, nervous system rewiring, and inner storytelling to help women turn cravings into clarity, and self-care into sacred play.

Together, they discuss:

💛 Why so many women feel disconnected from their desire

💛 How to feel “sexy” again - for yourself

💛 The role of imagination and fantasy in rediscovering passion

💛 What real sexual confidence looks like

💛 How desire links to self-worth and emotional connection

If you’ve ever found yourself replaying conversations, second-guessing choices, struggling to sleep at night because of thoughts running through your head or hesitating to take action because you’re scared to get it wrong - this one’s for you.

Overthinking might feel like progress, weighing up options, or being certain or sure, but most of the time it’s just fear in disguise. It’s what happens when we stop trusting ourselves to handle whatever comes next.

In this solo lesson of Self-Worth School, I share how to get out of your head and back into your life - so you can make confident, aligned decisions without overanalyzing every possibility.

💛 In this episode, you’ll learn:

✨ How to stop second-guessing yourself in work, relationships, and daily life
✨ The link between self-trust and confident decision-making
✨ A powerful exercise to help you choose between two options when you feel stuck

When you start trusting yourself, you stop waiting for the perfect answer and start creating momentum - in your work, your relationships, and your confidence.
