And over the past 5 years we’ve watched our Goodbye Hello journals help thousands of people reflect on their lives and commit to their dreams all over the world.

    Ep 146: Self love lessons from 28 days of love 2022
    Mar 3 2022
    Hi lovely,
    Ooh we loved recording today’s episode! 
    We got together to reflect on 7 years of running 28 days of love, our self love challenge that we’ve been running on Instagram since Valentine’s day (have you been doing it with us?).
    Every year we do this challenge, we discover something new about ourselves on our self love journey and our understanding of self love deepens each time. 
    If you’ve been doing 28 days of love with us (yay!) then we‘d love to hear how it’s been for you and what lessons you’re taking away from it. And if you’d like to start the challenge then you can do it anytime - simply head over here and download your free PDF guide to getting started (plus you’ll also find a big list of ideas to inspire you). It’s a great one to do with friends!
    Whether you’re new to self love or you are wanting to deepen your practice, we hope these lessons will inspire you on your own self love journey. 
    EXCITING NEWS Plus in the episode, you’ll hear us celebrating that we have a brand new journal that is being released TODAY!!! 🎉🎉🎉
    Goodbye 30s, Hello 40s is a reflective journal with prompts, exercises and inspirational quotes to help you to reflect meaningfully on your life as you step from one decade into the next.
    Selina first designed it for herself when she turned 40 and it was such a beautiful and powerful experience that we decided to create one that everyone can do when they turn the big 4 0 
    And so finally…here it is! 🎉🎉🎉
    Goodbye 30s Hello 40s takes you on a reflective journey that helps you to say a proper farewell to a decade of your life as it comes to an end and helps you to create a beautiful and lasting record of that decade through memories, lessons learnt, milestones achieved and blank pages where you can add several photos from each year.
    By the end of it you will have created a bespoke book celebrating and documenting a decade of your life that you can keep forever.
    So if you or someone you love is waving goodbye to their thirties and stepping into a fresh new decade then you can order your Goodbye 30s Hello 40s copy today!
    >>> Order your copy now!

    In the meantime, we hope you enjoy today’s episode!
    And be sure to join us for next month’s episode as we have a big announcement to make! We’ll see you then. 
    So much love,
    Selina & Vicki  xxxx

    Ep 144: Join us for a final reflection of 2021 and a virtual hug!
    Dec 9 2021
    Well here we are.. nearly at the end of 2021 and oof, what a year it’s been.
    It’s been another rollercoaster year hasn’t it? Full of ups and downs, twists and turns and everything in between. 
    For many of us, it’s been a tough and challenging one and so if you’re feeling exhausted, fatigued and a bit fed up as 2021 draws to a close then you’re certainly not alone!
    In this month’s podcast, we invite you to join us for a virtual hug 💛and an end-of-year reflection, as we look back at some of the lessons learnt and positive actions taken, despite everything that 2021 has brought our way. 
    If you have your Goodbye 2020, Hello 2021 journal then why not take yourself on a self love date to fill in the final reflection (the final reflection at the back is a new addition to the journal!).
    As always, we find these conversations so nourishing and gorgeous. They are great reminders to take a pause and acknowledge just how much we’ve been through this year - both collectively and individually. 
    As we say in the Goodbye, Hello journal, if there were dreams and goals that didn’t come into fruition this year then be gentle with yourself. A lot of dreams have had to be put on hold over the past two years so that we could focus on looking after ourselves and those we love in the pandemic.
    Getting through it has been an achievement enough so be compassionate towards yourself lovely one. 
    Sending you so much love and we hope you enjoy the episode.
    Lots of love,
    Vicki and Selina xxx

    Ep 143: Our latest lessons and insights on all things careers and dating
    Nov 3 2021
    Hi lovelies!
    In this month’s Project Love podcast we explore the topics that have been really firing us up recently in our coaching sessions, Vicki’s Sunday love letters and Selina’s Monday Crew weekly podcast, now on Patreon
    We take a deep dive into:
    • Side hustles, side projects and hobbies – what’s the difference and how to tell which one is best for you?
    • Selina’s appearance at Cheltenham Literary festival talking to Sam Baker about burnout, creating a career you love and a new way of working.
    • Vicki’s appearance on BBC Radio London talking to Salma El-Wardany about the rise in women seeking love and dating coaches
    • How we naturally fall into an ‘infatuation fog’ in the early days of dating and how we can clear that fog with Vicki’s new ‘Dating Debrief Tool’. It’s a self reflection exercise that helps you to feel clearer and more confident while you date. It’s brand new (launching today!) and you can download it for free here
    • And how Selina is learning from her slow COVID recovery that rest is sacred

    And if you want to keep these conversations going every week with us, then you can!
    🌟 Sign up to receive Vicki’s weekly Sunday Love Letter and download her brand new Dating Debrief Tool for dating confidence here


    🌟 Join Selina’s Monday Crew for weekly podcasts, monthly video tutorials, live online sessions and more here!
    We really hope you enjoy this episode. See you back here next month!

    Ep 141: Reflecting on 7 years of the Project Love podcast (and announcing a new chapter)
    Jul 22 2021
    Hi lovely,
    This will be our last episode until after the summer! We’ll be back in September but we’ll be doing things a little differently. Or rather, we’re going full circle and returning to how we used to do the Project Love podcasts when we began seven years ago!
    As of September we’ll be recording a podcast episode for you once a month, just the two of us. We are closing the chapter on weekly episodes and inviting guests onto the podcast. Not because we haven’t loved it - it has truly been life changing (as we share in today’s episode) - but because we are both working on new and exciting projects - online courses, podcasts and another journal (watch this space) - and we needed to create space to focus on these new adventures, so that we don’t burn out in the process. Our time is finite. We can do it all, but sometimes we have to change how we do it so we can fit everything in and still thrive ;)
    And so in today’s episode we look back on seven years of Project Love podcast episodes so far and some of our favourite episodes where guests have joined us to dive deep into fascinating conversations about life and love and how the power of some of these conversations has truly shaped the course of our lives. 
    And we’ll also be sharing more about the exciting new projects we’re both up to, this year and next. 
    And while we’re away for the summer, you have over 105 hours of Project Love podcasts that you can listen to and can browse by topic over on the Project Love website. And we’d love for you to stay in touch with us as we carry on with our journeys...
    Stay in touch with Vicki! To stay in touch with Vicki, be first to hear about her online course and enjoy her weekly love letter, join her newsletter over at https://vickipavitt.com/sundaylove
    Stay in touch with Selina! To stay in touch with Selina, join her if you haven’t already on her weekly mini-podcast - the Monday Crew - you can join for free over at https://www.selinabarker.com/themondaycrew (and you’ll get her Weekly Life Design Check-in tool the moment you sign up!)
    Lots and lots of love and have a great summer!
    X Selina & Vicki

  • Ep 140: Conversations on Love with Natasha Lunn

    Ep 140: Conversations on Love with Natasha Lunn
    Jul 15 2021
    Hello lovely, 

    It’s Vicki here, with a gorgeous podcast episode for you!
    I had the privilege of sitting down with a fellow lover of love, Natasha Lunn, to talk about her new book Conversations on Love (which is INCREDIBLE!)
    I love every single second of reading it. No exaggeration!
    Each page offers a deeper understanding of what it means to love and be loved and what it means to live a life of meaning. I felt so in love reading it, which Natasha tells me was one of her aims with the book.
    The book features interviews with the likes of Alain De Botton, Phillipa Perry, Esther Perel, Candice Carty Williams, Poorna Bell, Dolly Alderton, Roxane Gay, Diana Evans and many many more. It’s centered around three main questions (which we talk all about in the episode):
    • How do we find love? 

    • How do we sustain it? 

    • And how do we survive when we lose it?


    I first met Natasha back in 2018 and I learn something new about love every time I talk to her. She speaks about love with such reverence and wisdom. Speaking with her is always SUCH a treat. And I just know you’re going to love this episode ❤️❤️❤️
    As well as being a writer and author, Natasha is also the features director at Red magazine. 
    Conversations on Love is available now (it actually just came out today!!!) and you can grab your copy here. I know I’m going to be buying it for so many friends this Summer!
    I love love loved this conversation with Natasha and I can’t wait for you to listen to it.   To find out more about Natasha, head over here and she is on Instagram here.
    As always, if you loved this episode, please do let us know by leaving a 5 star rating wherever you listen to your podcasts.
    So much love,  Vicki x
