Great behind-the-scenes video! I love Lochie. :)

Love your passion for your work, Natalie! Fantastic tips! xx, 🇦🇷

What an incredibly generous video, Natalie. I so enjoyed the beautiful descriptions of these five books. I can’t wait to read all of these. I have started Dr. Ives’ biography, along with re-reading The Final Year of Anne Boleyn. ❤️ John O’Donoghue’s life and works sound so moving. Thank you for this video, Natalie!

Your encyclopedic knowledge and learning shines through all the time. I am not a Tudor scholar, just a fan reader, and I love listening to you and others with the information you share. And I’m not competitive, either! I’d be right in that queue with you buying books! 😉

What a great tips ! Love them ! Thank you! ❤

I truly believe morning routines are essential. My routine is get up and do morning pages and some journaling. Morning pages helps clear my brain and set things in focus. Then I do gratitude journaling. I read a few chapters in the Bible and today some poetry from Christina Rossetti and Robert Frost. It is blazing hot outside so I will treadmill today. On days I have to be at work at 0700 I get up an hour earlier to get things done. I have not found an app that works for me either. I use a paper planner and journal books.

It’s so lovely to see the behind the scenes! 🌹

Hi Natalie, Thank you for this heartwarming video! I was having a bad day when I listened to it and the blessings by John O’Donahue brought me comfort. I have never heard of him before but now I must find his book. I’m also on a spiritual journey and love, love, love Eckhart Tolle. Thanks for sharing with us!

I loved this ❤

Remarkable woman ❤

Totally buying Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn! Staring your book next. So excited to read both!

Thank you for this beautiful blessings, what a magical episode 😭 xx 🤗

I just finished your brilliant book “The Last Year of Anne Boleyn,” and I can’t wait to explore the Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn by Robin Maxwell. All these book suggestions are going on my bucket list for 2024-25. Thank you for your courage, and willingness to share, Natalie!! xx 🇦🇷

Thank you so much for sharing these amazing books Natalie. I love the blessings and will have to see if I can find a copy Benedictus. Two books that changed my life were The Clan of the Cave Bear by Jean M Auel and In the Shadow of Man by Jane Goodall both read in my late teens and early 20'S.

👏👏👏👏❤❤

Hi Natalie! Maybe you already have this in the works but I’d love to learn how you actually turned your podcasting and writing into a full-time job/income. I have a similar project in mind and feel paralyzed to get started.

Thank you for finding the time in your busy schedule to share this behind the scenes look at your days. I already love your work and this insight makes the appreciation of all your content even more special ❤ you definitely did deserve that wine . I love that you emphasis getting out for a walk which is so important getting that mix and so important for everyone’s mental health

love these behind the scenes videos!

Natalie, there is so much you do! I’m curious, you mentioned a course you are taking. Do you have a business background? How did you come to decide to do the podcasts and interviews? Was it learn as you go? I’m an older lady, and so many of these digital things just boggle my mind.

Such a great start of my day over here, Natalie! Love to see how you make all the things happen! I’m purposing to write more on my notebook moving forward! Love your fresh flowers on your table as well, xx 🇦🇷

Such a lovely video and what a busy Monday you have keep up the great work ❤

I will take notes because as you know, I need to be more organised! Xx

I really enjoyed the walk and vistas ! ❤

Enjoy all ya vids you're amazing ❤

Love it! Such a signature Sydney walk and I haven’t been in years! I always enjoy a stroll in a cemetery for the stories and history. 😊🧡

Interesting history that Bronte Beach is named after Lord Horatio Nelson, as the Duke of Bronte in Sicily, and not the famous literary sisters. (He obtained the title “in perpetual” in 1799 from the “grateful” King of Sicily, Ferdinand of Bourbon, after Nelson saved his life by suppressing a French-inspired insurrection in Naples.)

Your doggy is sooooo cute! ❤😂

Loved the walk, was nice to see the sun, tis freezing in Melbourne! Another poet, Henry Kendall, is in Waverley; Louisa Lawson, Henry's mother, had started fundraising for a headstone/monument when, at the last moment, an influencer swooped in and took the credit. Louisa is there, too.

Loved this video you're a lovely lady go's bless you ❤️

So appreciate you and all your hard work, Natalie!! I’m loving this video and can’t wait for your upcoming event with Dr Emmerson 🎉

Fantastic video Natalie, thank you 😊

I love your pup. He cracks me up!😂 lol 😆

Love seeing all the work that goes into your videos and talks! Appreciate all the efforts!

Your welcome ❤

You our a superstar love your knowledge ❤

Hello Natalie. Thanks for another Behind The Scenes video which are fun to watch. Lots of books on your bookshelves - I think I spotted Nicola Tallis’ Young Elizabeth and I’m delighted with my signed copy from her recent talk at Southwark Cathedral here in London. Anyway, I wonder when and where do you normally find the best time to read books? In a park or coffee shop? It’s always a nice quiet coffee shop for me. Best regards. Ian, UK.

I love DITL/WITL videos like this, especially when the person does interesting work like you do.

This was very interesting Natalie. I love your top . Thank you for all your work. 💝

Thanks for all your hard work and support Natalie!

Really enjoyed an insight of how you spend your very busy days thank you for sharing this with us❤ I will definitely be trying the chicken soup 😋 love little Lochi 🐕

Hello Natalie. Thanks so much for that very nice video, and for the podcast of which I never miss an episode. I was just wondering, I’m sure your fellow Australians are very familiar with the current members of the royal family, but is there much awareness over there of earlier royal eras? For example, are the Tudors etc taught in schools? Kind regards, Ian.

I always enjoy your insights, Natalie!

So enjoyed a peek into your very busy life, Natalie!! I am now craving chicken soup too. Thank you for letting us share in your day! xx
