EM=POWER to the people

There are words beginning with the letters 'EM' which have hugely positive energy

• EM=brace (hold someone close with affection)
• EM=pathy (understand the feelings of others)
• EM=otion (strong feeling from circumstances, mood or relationships)
• EM=ployed (to work for wages or salary)

By contrast there are also some words beginning with EM which may make us feel more sad, down-trodden or negative and somewhat powerless

• EM=barressed (shame or guilt about something)

* EM=pty (feeling unfulfilled, nothing or un-occupied)

Our thoughts, mindset, mood and behaviour can be changed in an instant just like this - negatively or positively which then affects our own power. By taking back our own power we can allow or entitle ourselves to be 'empowered' and to step forward and stand in our own truth.

Our lives are changeable and have light and shade as experiences which affect our self-esteem. By learning to become more self-aware we can learn new emotional resilience skills and develop new coping skills and greater mental toughness. When we learn to navigate through change and adversity we can evolve into an 'empowered' and evolved new version of ourselves.

As a broadcaster and journalist, I have had the privilege to interview literally hundreds of guests who have shared their personal journeys and setbacks with me. These incredible insights have been HUGE gifts on my own journey from the mouths and minds of celebrities, authors and broadcasters and community champions. These thought-leaders have hugely inspired me and helped me change my mindset and values in my own life. I have met incredible guests such as Buddhist mindfulness coaches, trauma counsellors, psychology writers and authors on life's true purpose, and confidence counsellors and addiction coaches, divorce alchemists and individuals battling mental health, social stigmas, ill health, disabilities and diversity challenges and ALL of them have profoundly influenced my thinking and even changed my life.

The well-known proverb - 'To thine own self be true' encourages us to be yourself, be true to yourself and to not engage in self-deception as an individual. In the Bible in Psalm 23.3 it was quoted.

And in Shakespeare as "This above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man" . And the mantra "As within, so without" is so inspiring as when we are peaceful within - that is the energy that we bring to LIFE. I can talk about these mantras and mottos for hours and enjoy reflecting on thought-provoking messages that we tell ourselves and others. Literally just today thought-leader Dr. Rangan Chatterjee messaged me back on socials when I commended his 'Feel Better Live More" podcast as his 5 minutes to calm and energy and stress tolerance has resonated and stayed with me including regularly dancing in my own kitchen!

Indeed, nothing matters to our self-esteem more than how we act by following our OWN principles, values and beliefs. The positive aspects of self-ownership, individuality and truth are vital to living an empowered life and coping with whatever life throws at us today or indeed tomorrow.

The new year of 2024 (hey that even rhymes!) fills us with huge potentially unrealistic expectations of ourselves. We challenge ourselves with where we simply hope our lives will take us and how we can possibly change our lives for the better without sometimes knowing how to take the first step.

Some of us make resolutions to live (or suffer) by and goals to achieve along the way to try to better ourselves for a perceived happier and more fulfilling future. When the road ahead has obstacles that become too great and goals too unreachable then our inner voices can bring our self-esteem and self-beliefs crashing down. This can be such a powerless feeling when we set ourselves up for what we then consider to be failure. We sometimes take external messages too personally and the expectations we put on ourselves and others with societal judgements and social constructs (of what we think we want or are not living up to and think we are not simply ' enough' and can feel unworthy).

To regain our POWER and develop a more positive and EMPOWERED sense of self that we can evolve from and learn by, we need to try to understand ourselves and how to overcome our biggest challenges.

In 2024 I will qualify as a Life Empowerment Coach and, together with the learnings I have experienced both personally and professionally, I have now created and launched an online modular course. The online course is hosted by myself nicki bannerman with my own insights, hacks and wisdom I have gleaned from some of the interviews I have done and from various fabulous people and motivations I have seen, read or found along the way.

The 'Emotional Resilience for an Empowered Life' course includes 7 modules and intro masterclass with downloadable e-books, and webinar introductory welcome and summary videos to watch and educational worksheets and research steers for you to discover. Packed with my emotion and various references to science with tips and life hacks on how to move from your head space into your heart space (one of my fave sayings!). I am thrilled to have collaborated with the multi award-winning Corporate guru Annie Gibbins ?? leading Educator, Corporate coach and motivator on her Australian and worldwide womens portal. She describes herself as 'powerhouse success catalyst who will inspire, empower and equip you to achieve your big hairy audacious goals.' (Love it and loving your work!).

This Emotional Resilience course is designed to help you become more BADASS and break free of limiting beliefs and to move forward and gain mental toughness and emotional resilience through a more empowered life. What's not to like??

Championing women’s, youth and empowering initiatives is what drives me and aligns with my own values and truth.

We must seek to navigate through change and adversity rather than avoiding it and learn, grow and evolve and trust the process (as one of my guests said) and become an empowered evolved version of ourselves and embrace life and really try and show huge gratitude for every minute (try 20 a day another guest told me!).
