This is Episode 18! Thank you so much for supporting me on this journey, whether you've been here from the very start OR are only just joining. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Today I talk about the spiritual goddess I've grown into. I share my journey over the past few months, saying no to alcohol, studying a degree and being fully in love with who I have become.

I've glowed up & can honestly say, I feel like a fully fledged GROWN UP!

In Episode 16 of NICE v GOOD, we dig deeper into what it really means to set boundaries without guilt. If you’ve ever said “yes” when you meant “no,” or worried that protecting your energy makes you selfish, this episode is for you. We break down the difference between being nice and being good, and how choosing honesty over people-pleasing can lead to healthier relationships and more self-respect.

Grab a pen, piece of paper and take some notes - I hope my tips & tricks help!

Episode 15 – A Life of Curiosity, Courage & Late Diagnosis with Sabine O’Laughlin

In Episode 15, I’m joined by the remarkable Sabine O’Laughlin — a pathologist, life coach, author, and podcast host, who brings a lifetime of wisdom and lived experience to this deeply heartfelt conversation. Now 67, Sabine was diagnosed with AuDHD at 65, a revelation that reshaped how she understands herself, her past, and the many chapters of her life.

Together, we explore what it means to stay curious and open at every stage of life, the power of honest self-reflection, and the freedom that can come with late diagnosis. Sabine speaks candidly about her personal journey, identity, and growth, offering insight, compassion, and reassurance to anyone navigating self-discovery later in life.

This episode is an open, honest, and deeply human conversation — full of curiosity, warmth, and permission to keep learning who you are, no matter your age.

It makes you honest - especially with ADHD!

Welcome BACK to So Far, So Soph! It's a pleasure to be chatting with you again. Apologies, I know I mention it being Boxing Day (which was infact yesterday), my laptop died and I was too tired to recharge and get this out on time. TYPICALLLLL!

This episode is full of honesty and reassurance for anyone who is in a similar season of their life. I talk about how HEALING DOESN'T MAKE YOU SOFTER - It makes you honest! And that is ok. That is normal, that is healthy and that is a huge work in progress.

Sometimes it's hard to come to terms with letting people and comfortable environments go, whether it's because they don't serve us anymore or align with our values.

Please remind yourself that you're doing your best. You're pouring into your own cup and loving yourself before giving any part of yourself to anybody else.

I am proud of you, every single day!

EPISODE 13 - TRANSFORMATION, GROWTH & FEAR (Letting go of who I was)

Yes this one needs shouting about! And we're here, ALREADY, episode 13. Where has the time gone!?

In today's episode, I get personal about the moments that challenge us, the fears that try to hold us back and the subtle, often messy ways we grow.

We explore what real transformation looks like - not the dramatic breakthroughs, but the quiet, powerful shifts that happen when we choose courage over comfort, curiosity over judgement and patience over rushing.

If you're navigating change, facing fear or simply trying to show up for yourself, in a world that moves fast. This episode is for you!

Tune in, breathe & embrace the journey.

Lots of Love,

Soph X

In this heartwarming episode - EPISODE 12 might I add!

Introducing the wonderful ''Here's Kieran'' we sit down with a new friend who’s not only an incredible country singer but also a storyteller at heart. A soul full of stories, he shares his journey from humble beginnings to chasing his dreams in the world of country music.

Through his lyrics, he invites us into his world of love, loss, and everything in between, giving us a glimpse into the man behind the music.

Get ready for a conversation that’s as genuine as his voice, filled with moments that will make you think, smile, and maybe even shed a tear. This episode is all about discovering the “WHO AM I?'' behind the songs and the person who pours his heart out with every vocal.

Tune in, and let’s get to know this rising star through the music that’s as real as it gets.

What if your restlessness, sensitivities and intense emotions aren't flaws? What if they're signals?

Welcome to the episode where ADHD meets spirituality — basically the chaotic crossover nobody asked for, but everyone secretly needed.

In this episode, I discuss my spiritual journey and I transformed from a non-believer, to a fence-sitter and NOW spiritual goddess.

If you have some kind of interest or feel like you have dipped your toe in the spiritual pool, this will definitely connect with you.

Thank you so much for your on-going support, kind hearts and wonderful words. You mean more to me than you will EVER know!
