  • Operating primarily in your masculine energy

    For many of us, the struggle to revert to masculine energy is all too familiar.

    But what if I told you there's another way, a more nurturing and intuitive approach?

    We've been conditioned to constantly seek unhelpful metrics that trigger the hustle, leaving us feeling drained and disconnected from our true purpose.

    In this episode I show you a replay of the LIVE coaching inside my EMBODY program. 

    This week’s episode covers topics to do with:

    • Business through the framework of feminine flow 

    • The struggle of reverting to masculine energy

    • Constantly looking for unhelpful metrics that trigger hustle

    • Your ‘values’ and your ‘emotions’ are a metric you can use to measure your alignment

      • Themes

      • There has been no prior framework that isn’t masculine/ quantifiable but it does not mean feminine flow is ineffective

      • Your values are the METRIC for how you know you are living in alignment & operating your business 

        • Coach Nicole talks about her value of “wonder” and how she uses it as a metric for building in alignment & Coach Tanya talks about “emotions” as a barometer for knowing what is right for you

        • BREAKING THE HABIT: Putting yourself last

          Have you ever found yourself trapped in the cycle of always putting others before yourself?

          In this episode I show you a replay of the LIVE coaching inside my EMBODY program. 

          This week’s episode covers topics to do with:

          • Stripping away labels & detaching from the conditioned self

          • the programs they're living by that are no longer serving them

          • the need to do everything for everyone first before putting self first

          • "I'll do XYZ for everybody else first, before doing things for myself"

          • How the narrative "I'm happy when everyone else is happy" actually comes from lack programming

          • Lack of belief in self worthiness and feeling “deserving enough” to be first

            • Themes:

            • The guilt of putting self first > others

            • What else brings you happiness and joy that isn't dependent on other people going first?

            • Coach Tanya takes a student through a series of questions geared towards uncovering her subconscious programs

            • EMBODIED WOMEN: Growing through your mental health journey & allowing your own pace ft. Ashlyn Smith

              Being on a mental health journey can often lead to a lot of self imposed judgment. This was Ashlyn’s journey as she embarked on a transformation process to become her best self. 

              On this episode, I interview Ashlyn, a student inside my EMBODY program who experienced phenomenal growth during the program, despite the anxieties that her mental health would throw her into. 

              Her story inspires us to go at our own pace, to be gracious with our growth and to stay focused on our own lane. 

              Listen on to hear us talk about 

              • The impact of mental health on your personal growth journey

              • How to handle setbacks and delays 

              • Not remaining stuck in anxiety 

              • Getting yourself to take small actions when you dont feel like it

              • Balancing your energy and allowance

              • Releasing self judgment

              • You’re addicted to that emotion

                Have you ever wondered why no matter how hard you try to break an emotional pattern, you keep falling back into it?

                Your most familiar state is your baseline. When push comes to shove, your brain and body will bring you back to that state even if it doesn’t serve you. 

                In this episode, I talk about the experience of being anxious, nervous and worried before a big event. This familiar experience happens to most of us when we are doing something for the first time or are doing something that involves high stakes. 

                I discuss how I was able to reprogram my subconscious OUT of this state and to teach it to normalise a new state: calm, relaxed & excited. 

                The process of changing your state requires you to recognise when you have unconsciously become ADDICTED to a feeling. You may not know it (or admit it), but becoming addicted to a feeling of stress, anxiety or worry can happen when you rehearse it so often. 

                In order to change your experience, you must train your brain and body with a NEW normal ‘baseline state.’ This is what it means to overcome that addiction and create a new experience different to your familiar reality. 

                If you’re someone who wants to stop cycling in feelings of anxiety, worry, overthinking or constantly focusing on the negative - this is going to be a helpful episode for you!

              • My SURRENDER EXPERIMENT explained: Why I moved to SE Asia for 3 months without a plan.
                In this weeks episode I do a Q&A on my ‘surrender experiment’ trip to SE Asia. 
                Watch the 2 Part Youtube Video Series here. Part 1 and Part 2.
                In late 2022, I decided I needed to take a MASSIVE LEAP into the unknown and finally give my dream of being nomadic a go. I gave myself 3 months. At the time, I didn’t really know what I was doing- on the outside it looked like I’d lost my mind. I was going to pack up my entire apartment and leave everything I was familiar with (including my partner) to go on some ‘eat pray love’ experiment? Yeah, nuts. 
                I’d never travelled solo for this long, I had zero plans, minimal income and knew nobody in the countries I was visiting. Although I had no clue where this would take me, I just knew I had to do it. & So began my surrender experiment
                After building what looked like a successful business on the outside, moving into the apartment on my vision board and buying a brand new car… I soon realised that my definition of “success” did not look like this. Or at least only part of it did. 
                By western society’s standards, I was supposed to be fulfilled- to a degree I had “made it”. Female solopreneur, boss girl, making moves. 
                Yet deep down, I felt unfulfilled. As the yearning inside me to travel, wander and be nomadic (as the younger me used to dream)- the dissatisfaction grew. The longer I delayed giving myself the permission to “try out” a nomadic lifestyle, the more I felt the ache of my soul. 
                I felt myself longing to be uprooted from this rigid, urban life. I craved deeper connections, I wanted to tap into my intuition, I wanted to express myself in ways that my current environment just could not allow for. You see, everybody around me was so fixated on “settling down” meanwhile I just wanted to go out and explore the world and have experiences. 
                So despite all the resistance my mind and logic offered me, I knew I had to do it. One small step at a time- browsing for flights, daydreaming about the lifestyle, watching YouTube vlogs and tiktok videos of others who’d done it too… I finally decided to take the leap. 
                I booked my flight and stepped into my next era of Surrender. 
                Tune into this weeks episode to hear me answer these questions: 
                What was your situation before going on your surrender experiment? What were your main struggles? 
                Decision making process before going. How did you know it was the right time to go? 
                What were the biggest factors that held you back & how did you move through them? DId you have any doubt about your decision? 
                What it was like for you there? Key moments you remember?
                What lessons did the experience teach you? 
                How has it affected your life since? 
                What was it like coming home & integrating? Were there any challenges? How did you move through them? 
                What does true SURRENDER mean to you now? 
                How are you embodying a lifestyle of SURRENDER now?How does one embark on their own Surrender Experiment?

              • Why words matter

                In this episode I invite my co-coach Tanya from the EMBODY program to speak about why our words matter. She is a neuro-inguistic programming expert and she knows exactly how impactful our language is in shaping our lives. 

                Listen on in this episode to hear us chat about:

                • How our brains are programmed with our words

                • Why its so hard to break a habit loop or start a new habit

                • “Impact” words that may be sabotaging our ability to make more money and experience abundance

                • How to communicate boundaries with our loved ones more effectively

                • The key words to AVOID saying

                • Language patterns to use that will get you out of self limiting and self sabotaging behaviour

                  • You always talk yourself down 

                  • You say stuff like “i can’t” “I should” “I’m not”

                  • You don’t follow through with what you say you’ll do & it low key frustrates you

                  • You think you’re telling people what you want/ need yet they don't seem to understand 

                  • You want to have a positive outlook on life yet the inner mean girl keeps beating you down

                  • You want to be a more effective communicator yet you second guess your own words

                  • You struggle to express how you feel because you can’t seem to find the words to communicate effectively

                  • Feeling comfortable in your own skin & self expression (ft. Samantha Bun)

                    [This episode is available on Video Podcast via YouTube]


                    This week I interviewed my friend Samantha Bun. 

                    Here’s a little bit about her:

                    I'm a self love & confidence coach and dance instructor (pole, floorwork & twerk) and I am all about helping women boldly & confidently love, claim & express their true limitless selves. 

                    When I asked her about what she felt called to share with you this week on the podcast she said: 

                    I'd love to share about how I overcame struggles with my body and growing up with very conservative values in an Asian family. How I was able to break free from these constraints and develop my own views and values around my body. How dance has helped me embrace my femininity and sensuality + own my sexuality. I believe a lot of women will be able to resonate with body image issues. 

                    So tune into this episode where we talk about

                    • Sam’s journey with her body & self confidence 

                    • Taking ownership & breaking social, familial & cultural boundaries of self expression

                    • Handling shame around your body

                    • Stepping into the taboo of ‘pole’ & ‘floorwork’

                    • The effect of staying in alignment to your self expression

                    • The impact of operating in flow in all areas of life

In this episode, we talk about her journey as a brand new (and very young) entrepreneur. The experience for many new entrepreneurs is often challenging in many ways than one.

                      • The consistent obsession with moving the needle forward

                      • What true self love and acceptance look like as a new entrepreneur

                      • Ways to start balancing feminine and masculine energies 

                      • Authenticity as the path to least resistance

                      • Creating results by slowing down

                      • How finding your flow really looks like amidst the never ending to-do lists

                      • Burnout and hustle is optional

                      • The struggle to break out of the unconscious self limiting loop

                        We live in a time where it is normal & acceptable to be ‘sorry’ for who you are. You shrink yourself down so others don’t get disturbed, you fit yourself into boxes they tell you to fit and you fall for the lie that you are only ever really able to be ‘happy’, ‘successful’ or ‘beautiful’ unless you have a certain frame, own a massive house or make 7 figures. 

                        The ability to love yourself & be shameless as who you are is conditional and is dependent on other people and things. 

                        But what would it look like if you stopped apologising for being yourself?

                        What might happen if you started dressing, walking and talking like you are the most important person in the room? 

                        I dare you try it for the next 30 days and find out.

                        To help you along your journey, I’m gifting you my 6 part mini course with lessons on:

                        • the conditioned patterns and beliefs that are sitting in the drivers seat of your life

                        • whats blocking you from confidently doing/ saying/ being the way you are 

                        • why you do what you do 

                        • how to move through shame and negative emotion 

                        • how to stop the toxic cycles of 'perfectionism' and 'people pleasing'

                        • the tools to create safety inside your mind & body 

                          • Access the free course ‘Becoming Unapologetic as your own Damn Self’ here
