The Florence Given Show

The Longer You Linger, the Deeper the Magic

I meditated before this episode and…I think you can tell?! Meditating is one of the hardest things for me to do, even though I know the profound effects it has on my levels of daily happiness, creativity and heightened presence. In this episode we explore the necessary discomfort that comes with growth and the rewards that await us when we choose to LINGER in the discomfort instead of running from it. “The comfort zone is a beautiful place but nothing ever grows there” is a quote that I have had cemented on my brain since I was a teenager. When we expand beyond our comfort zone, we get to the pot of delicious GOLD that waits on the other side - filled with creative insights, peace, accomplishments and human connection. I discuss the micro-moments of discomfort in life that can expand your life beyond comprehension, if you can just learn to linger in them. Where do you normally quit? Where is that moment of discomfort for you? And can you dare to stay in it to push through to the other side? …..If this episode resonated, please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show!

The Art of LINGERING

When did it become embarrassing to be joyful? Why are we all in a rush? Why does it feel so awkward to want connection, and smile at people and be HAPPY?! Why does seeking connection feel like such a terrifyingly vulnerable thing?In today’s episode I discuss my fascination with LINGERING, and how practising it intentionally in small moments of my life - pausing to notice the flowers, smiling at someone in the queue or simply not using my phone while waiting for my coffee - has opened up portals of magic and awe in my life ✨💫I believe that the discomfort we feel in moments of social awkwardness and cringe are actually thresholds that our souls need to cross and expand beyond - in order to evolve ⭐️This episode is an invitation to slow down, soften, and remember - THE LONGER YOU LINGER, THE DEEPER THE MAGIC 💫💫……Please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show if you loved this episode! 🌟Follow me on Instagram @florencegiven Follow the podcast @theflorencegivenshowBuy my NEW BOOK here: https://linktr.ee/womenlivingdeliciouslyWatch + join the comment section on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleWTyiVjNlDMyFHsoLlRHQCreated By Florence GivenDirected and Creatively Produced by Florence GivenProduced by Kate DowneyVideo Editing by Mika BryonySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A Good Outfit Is a SPELL

If you wear a good enough outfit, reality bends to YOU!Fashion isn’t frivolous. Feeling BEAUTIFUL isn’t frivolous. It’s fucking fun. And having fun is the most spiritual thing you can do. In today’s episode I talk about the power of using fashion, clothes and styling as a DANGEROUS and sexy spell to cast over yourself, shifting your energy, and snapping yourself into delicious alignment to get everything you want in life. …..Please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show if you loved this episode! 🌟Follow me on Instagram @florencegiven Follow the podcast @theflorencegivenshowBuy my NEW BOOK here: https://linktr.ee/womenlivingdeliciouslyWatch + join the comment section on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleWTyiVjNlDMyFHsoLlRHQCreated By Florence GivenDirected and Creatively Produced by Florence GivenProduced by Kate DowneyVideo Editing by Mika BryonySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Are You the ‘Therapist Friend’?

Are you the person that others feel comfortable sharing their darkest fears, secrets, and trauma with? Are you you the one that everyone dumps on? Does it quietly EXHAUST you?I recorded this realisation for you as soon as it came through to me - in the middle of cooking dinner in my hoodie, so this one is FRESH OFF THE FLOSSY PRESS!I have always played the ‘big sister’ role in my friendships, priding myself on being the person that others rely on - and as a result I had very draining, complicated and unreciprocal female friendships. But it wasn’t all their fault.In this episode I unpack how I’ve taken responsibility for my part in this pattern, how I’ve reclaimed my power and learned to welcome in abundant, generous reciprocal female friendships. The kind that LITERALLY leave a skip in my step and remind me why it’s vulnerability is worth it. …..Please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show if you loved this episode! 🌟Follow me on Instagram @florencegiven Follow the podcast @theflorencegivenshowBuy my NEW BOOK here: https://linktr.ee/womenlivingdeliciouslyWatch + join the comment section on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleWTyiVjNlDMyFHsoLlRHQCreated By Florence GivenDirected and Creatively Produced by Florence GivenProduced by Kate DowneyVideo Editing by Mika BryonySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You Don't Need To Post About Everything

Do you ever feel so f*cking fatigued by the false urgency of needing to document everything for social media? Do you ever worry that experiences are wasted if you cannot turn them into an essay, painting, song, or piece of content?In this episode I explore a philosophy and a deliciously soothing balm for the modern anxiety of ‘I’m not creating enough quickly enough!!!’ - I share the radical idea that our daily lives and habits THEMSELVES are the art, that YOU are a worthy enough witness and that you are ALWAYS in a state of creation and self-expression. Hell, you’re even doing it when you fling your knickers off, finish a plate of food, or tie your bin bags. You’re not behind. You’re not wasting your potential. Let some of your life belong to just you. The process is sacred. Allow it to be!…..Please leave us a REVIEW and rate our show if you loved this episode! 🌟Follow me on Instagram @florencegiven Follow the podcast @theflorencegivenshowBuy my NEW BOOK here: https://linktr.ee/womenlivingdeliciouslyWatch + join the comment section on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCleWTyiVjNlDMyFHsoLlRHQCreated By Florence GivenDirected and Creatively Produced by Florence GivenProduced by Kate DowneyVideo Editing by Mika BryonySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
