Walnut Wednesday
Walnut Wednesday
Lara Gieseke
On a Wednesday, Lazz and her guests share how they had courage and 'walnutted', to encourage you to move, decide to be brave and be a part of The Walnut Tree. Lazz is the creator, owner and life giver of Walnut Wednesday which is now so much more than a podcast. It is incredible real-life humans, changing the world, one baby brave step at a time. She's been bravely walnutting and leading other women to grow their own confidence ever since. "I am so many things, but if I had to narrow it down to a few I'd suggest, I'm a healer, self-leader, podcast host and more importantly, a Walnut".

#304 Self Employment and Survival Mode with Colby Robbins
This week I have the lovely Colby chatting with me all about how she got into author services and self employment. From dog sitting to content pulls she's found herself in a really happy place in life. I intended to have a bookish chat about starting a business, but of course, we do a deep dive and discuss some heavy hitting topics as Colby courageously shared some home truths about the trauma work she has been doing.Colby says: I’m an author service provider working with over 15 romance authors. I’m 24 and live in Arkansas in the States! I started reading romance books when I was 15 and have been apart of the community for about five years.and she SLAYS! Connect with Colby @colbsland on both Instagram and Tiktok

#301 Oh Vienna with Kat Farron
This week, I'm so excited to speak with a friend from HIGH SCHOOL who is out in the world doing all sorts of amazing stuff! Welcome, Kat Farron!Kat spent almost 10 years climbing the ranks in retail marketing, thriving in high-pressure environments and pushing through the quiet warning signs of burnout, until her body stepped in and forced a full stop. What followed was a slow, sometimes messy, reconnection with rest, purpose, and mental wellbeing. Out of that space came Oh Vienna - a brand inspired by her rescue dog and a desire to create products that are as practical as they are considered. Now, Kat is passionate about building a business that prioritises balance, creativity, and a softer way of doing things.Check it all out on Insta: @oh_vienna_nz and the website: www.ohvienna.co.nz

Sam and I chat about her story in hopes to help new (or otherwise) Mother's to feel less isolated and alone.Sam is passionate about maternal mental health, postpartum honesty, and what it means to be both a mother and a woman, and where those things both intersect and run parallel to one another (and fighting the guilt that comes with that!).
