When life flips into full F mode - fight, flight, freeze or fawn - it’s not just your mind that goes into meltdown. Your body feels it too.

In this In the Meantime mini-episode, Luan shares how stomping around Sydney Harbour, swapping rave tunes for the Rocky theme and quietly recreating a childhood position of safety became unlikely acts of self-advocacy during cancer treatment.

This one’s about body-set, not just mindset. Because confidence and calm don’t only live in your head. They live in your body too. And with simple, supportive rituals, you can gently prime yourself to show up, especially when everything feels like too much.

No pressure. No performance. Just one small thing, if it feels right.

Take 10 minutes to listen and come back to your body.
