Episode 100 is a stopping point, not a surrender. I’m closing this chapter of the Mischief Movement Podcast with a look back at the ideas that have helped so many of us step off autopilot and into intentional living, especially when midlife starts whispering that there must be more than ticking boxes.

We revisit some of the moments that shaped the show: treating true fun as a North Star rather than a reward, protecting creativity as part of identity, and letting big life wake-up calls sharpen what matters. I also pull through some of my favourite guest lessons, from backing yourself and asking boldly, to designing your lifestyle first instead of squeezing your real life into evenings and weekends. That gem came from one of my favourite episodes with Designer-Maker & TV Presenter, Max McMurdo.

Along the way we touch on late-blooming ambition with Designer Liz Mosley, modern career paths like UGC with Megan Spencer, and why “the worst someone can say is no” can be the start of everything.

You’ll also hear how unexpected friendship and community grow from a single conversation, plus what’s next for me beyond the podcast: deeper coaching work, tarot as a tool for reflection, and a new space I’m sketching out for curious, adventurous humans who want to feel more alive. If you’ve been waiting for perfect timing, take this as your sign. Subscribe, share with a fellow mischief maker, and leave a review that tells me: what are you starting now?

Have you ever felt trapped by the daily grind and responsibilities, shrunk yourself to 'fit in' or followed the rules then realised they didn't bring you the success or happiness you'd been promised? Tick, tick and tick. My life had plateaued, my unused potential was wasting away and I felt powerless to change anything. I wanted to escape but instead of running away, I decided that ordinary is optional, and I could DECIDE to live authentically, put FUN back on the agenda and do more of the things that made me feel alive. This podcast is one of them and through these conversations I'd love nothing more than to be able to help you do the same!

What if the very dreams people call “delusional” are the ones that lead you to a life that finally fits?

This week I sit down with branding and business strategist Silvia Coco to unpack how multi-passionate creatives can stop shrinking to fit a label and start using strategy as a bridge from idea to reality. From refusing the box to designing goals that match your real capacity, this conversation blends honest stories with practical tools you can use today.

Silvia’s path runs from corporate communications to Parsons illustration to brand strategy, revealing how each pivot sharpened her gift for clarity. She shares why she left client-led design, how to reframe a job title as a conversation starter, and the simple definition of strategy that changes everything: the road you take from concept to done. We talk brand positioning, alignment, and the quiet traps that keep founders stuck even when they look “successful” on paper.

Silvia’s guiding word—intentionality—becomes a compass for multi-passionates: pick one theme, then express it everywhere through choices, collaborations, and content. We also trade podcast production truths, embracing the messy middle instead of chasing perfect timing. And we unpack “delusional to done,” a mindset that invites you to dream audaciously, select one strand, ship it, and let the proof power the next move.

If you’re ready to trade labels for leverage and fog for focus, hit play. Then share this with a friend who needs a nudge or leave a review to help more rebels find their road!

Feeling stuck in the in-between—aware you’re meant for more, but unsure where to start? This week I sit down with author and adventurer Melissa Rodway to trace the spark behind her book The People You Meet and the winding path that followed. What begins as a tagalong trip across Southeast Asia becomes a study in curiosity, identity, and the strangers who tilt your life on its axis. Melissa shares how long emails from internet cafés turned into a self-published book, how she learned to choose the right voices to trust, and why one act of courage can open the floodgates to more...

We dig into myths about travel and transformation. No neat epiphanies, but plenty of skill-building, confidence, and space to think. Along the way, we talk about saying yes to the unknown, reading your body’s 'yes' when your mind says 'no', and letting purpose reveal itself in overlaps: radio, writing, comedy, and an unexpected pull toward celebrancy and the death industry. These threads look random from up close, then resolve into a pattern of storytelling, presence, and service.

If you’re wrestling with approval, perfection, or the “pick one lane” rule, this conversation offers a different blueprint. Start small. Ask better questions. Know when to tap out and go home instead of pushing through and burning out. Let dissatisfaction be data rather than a dead end. By the end, you’ll have practical prompts to move again and a reminder that the dots rarely connect without the next brave step...
