welcome to The Staple Life, with Rox Marthinussen

you’re in exactly

the right place 

Hey friend, I’m Rox

I’m a work & well-being coach and former, serial job-hopper. Who was on the insatiable hunt for a workplace and job role that felt “just right”.

This journey drove me far away from myself, through burnout, and (luckily) all the way back again.

The biggest gift from that journey was defining “The Staple Life” - the philosophy and the practice.

The Staple Life is both a philosophy and a practice…

The Staple Life philosophy relentlessly challenges convention in all aspects of life - work and career, motherhood, femininity, wellness and personal development.

But not under the guise of some “rebel without a cause” mission…

It’s about choosing to tune into our inner wisdom.

The wisdom that guides us towards the most authentic definition of ourselves. A definition that refuses to surrender to the external pressure of who we “should” be.

And invites us into a more expansive, personal and flexible definition of success, well-being, and freedom.

In practice, The Staple Life is a full and well-rounded life that decentralises our reliance on work and career as the primary way to identify ourselves. A life that is made up of varied interests, hobbies, and side quests. A life that is lived beyond any one label or role.

A life that doesn’t just look good from the outside looking in, but feels good on the inside too.

The Staple Life Podcast 

The podcast is where we become besties!

I share personal insights from my own lived experience of the impact of work on my well-being, sprinkled with some coaching & psychology modalities. All while challenging what we know and have been indoctrinated into from the corporate world and the wellness & personal development industry.
The podcast is all about discovering an alternative perspective, to expand our collective understanding of growth, healing and success.

And, ultimately help create a more expansive view of life, that isn’t boxed in by what we “should” do, or what things “should” look like. But, instead, encourages us to embrace our own inner wisdom about how we wish to live our lives.

Let’s be social!

This is how we do it… It’s #freedomfriday meme edition. Choose your Friday Fighter💪🏾 #observingfreedomfriday #fridayvibes #fridaymood #fridayfeeling #fridayfeels #workmemes
In my humble opinion 👉🏾 The hardest work we do as ambitious careerists is try to have a life and a personality outside of our jobs🥴 Allowing work to define our identity doesn’t just make us boring it also makes us a little bit depressed🤷?
