b'Thank you all so much for your wonderful, thought-provoking and well-considered questions, I had so much fun reflecting on them (and not so much fun listening back to my answers - even after all this time I hate listening to my own voice unless it\'s bantering with a guest). I can\'t properly express how grateful I am to everyone who has ever joined, listened or been part of the podcast in anyway - Seize the Yay brings so much depth and joy to my life and opens my mind in new ways each week to create it for you.\\n\\nI covered as many questions as I could in this one and, as I mention in the intro, I genuinely can\'t tell anymore if my answers makes sense, are useful or if it\'s all just nonsense but hopefully I\'ve addressed at least some of your curiosity. I definitely missed some things, could have said some things better, and wanted to re-record as soon as I listened back, but I\'m learning to take my own advice that "done is better than perfect", that self-doubt will always make you overly self-critical and that the essence of seizing the yay is sharing my real spontaneous answers, not the curated ones.\\n\\nThe questions I answered in order are:\\n\\nThe podcast \\n\\n\\nWhich have been your 3 most eye-opening interviews?\\n\\nWhich interviewee surprised you the most? Why?\\n\\nWhat are the three biggest challenges you have faced since starting your podcast?\\n\\nHave you had any interviews that never went to air?!\\n\\nAny awkward interviews where it was hard to get the conversation flowing?\\n\\nHow do you speak so eloquently on your podcast episodes?

What\'s your secret?\\n\\nWhat do you think you have learnt about YOURSELF since starting this podcast?\\n\\nWho would be your dream person to interview?\\n\\nHow do you choose who you interview for your podcast? What\\u2019s the process\\n\\nHow did you get into what you do and what\\u2019s the advice you\\u2019d give to others getting into the podcasting space?\\n\\nHow do you find your topic, tone of voice, first guests?\\n\\n\\nThe book\\n\\n\\nCan you give us a little sneak peak snippet of your book?\\n\\nCan you tell us a bit more background about the story behind it etc?\\n\\nWhat are the chapter headings?\\n\\n\\nPersonal life\\n\\n\\nTop 3 achievements so far? \\n\\nWho\\u2019s your biggest inspiration?\\n\\nWhat did you wish you knew in high school or uni?\\n\\nHow do you do it all? Do you have a virtual assistant or manager? \\n\\nRecommendations for coping with chronic fatigue or similar\\n\\nAre you medicated for anxiety?\\n\\nWhat\'s one piece of advice that has always stuck with you throughout your life?\\n\\nHow did you know Nic was the one and what was your history of relationships prior? \\n\\nHave you been back to the town where you were born?\\n\\nWould you consider adopting a child, considering how blessed you feel you were to be adopted?\\n\\nWhat would be your last meal before you die!?\\n\\nDo you drink Matcha everyday?\\n\\nWhat is your absolute guilty pleasure to treat yourself?\\n\\nFavourite foods and cheat meal?\\n\\n\\nOn 2020 \\n \\n\\nAs you reflect on the volatility of 2020, what have you learnt about yourself? Maybe, have you noticed your values changing?\\n\\nHow\\u2019s your mum coping with lockdown?\\n\\nWhat motivates you to keep going day to day?\\n\\nHow do you get yourself out of a deep funk?\\n\\nHow do you stay positive in iso?\\n\\nIf you were single how would you have copied? \\n\\n \\nWhat\\u2019s next?\\n\\n\\nWill you be starting a Youtube channel?\\n\\nDo you plan on increasing the podcast production for other companies? \\n\\nDo you plan on growing MM?
