In this episode we dive into my top tips on becoming a better more refined public speaker as well as how to build true confidence.

Public speaking used to be my biggest fear *even worse than my fear of sharks

But now, I am booked to publicly speak in a variety of settings on a regular basis, in conference rooms of 8-10 people, all the way up to audiences of 100+ (next goal...1000)

I spent thousands in speech coaching and I'm going to teach you everything I learnt, in just 49 minutes.

Regardless of whether you intend to stand on stage and deliver a talk, or want to feel more confident speaking out loud at work - this episode will provide you with a ton of value that you can apply immediately into your life.

Enjoy -- and let me know your thoughts over on IG @helenderbs @thisisrealandraw

In this episode, I'm joined by Anthony Serino to explore the transformative power of hypnosis and its ability to unlock your subconscious mind for lasting change. Together, we dive into the science behind fear, limiting beliefs, and why so many of us feel stuck. 

Anthony shares how hypnosis can reprogram the mind to overcome self-doubt, build self-worth, and break free from habits that no longer serve you. We’ll also discuss the neuroscience of change, the role of visualisation and self-hypnosis, and how spirituality intertwines with personal growth. 

If you’re ready to embrace a more empowered version of yourself, this episode is packed with actionable insights to help you harness the power of your mind and create the life you deserve.

Welcome back to The Real & Raw Podcast, and this year we are coming back strong with a new and improved intro, with guest episodes every other week.

I heard this quote from a friend 'some years ask questions, others give answers' this year was certainly a question year, mostly "what the f*ck". So allow me to bring you up to speed on this year, how I got through depression (for the third time in my life) and why I'm burning this bitch to the ground and raising from the ashes in 2025 (Hello Phoenix).

In this episode I covered;

• 2024 recap - how I navigated depression, what it taught me and the practical tools I used to get me out of it.
• My word of the year (and why you should have one too)
• My favourite self development and wellness hacks for an optimised 2025
• The new direction I'm taking in 2025 

If you're ready to hear conversations that will inspire you, you're in the right place.

Let's dive into The Real & Raw Podcast.

In this episode I was joined by a former long standing life coaching client, and friend of mine, Hannah Barrett who featured on the podcast in 2021, Episode 15.

Within this episode, we spoke about her journey of discovering her purpose, following a life altering accident which led her to where she is today, a qualified personal trainer, sports massage therapist and reformer pilates instructor as well as a first class honour degree graduate in Physiology which she went back to university for at the age of 30 to pursue an entirely new life path which has also led her to opening her own business, Physical Finesse where she teaches 1:1 Reformer Pilates, coaching people of all ages & promoting increased strength & mobility through a unique combination of stretching & strengthening. 

Hannah will soon also be offering private Physiotherapy to help people recover & find themselves again, following injury; something she is highly passionate about following her own life experiences.

Reformer pilates has become extremely trendy the last couple of years, so I wanted to hear from Hannah:

• Why is pilates all of a sudden become popular?
• Is it worth the hype?
• Who and what is it for?
• Where should you start as a beginner?
• How can this help me regardless of my age?
• What else can I do to improve my overall health especially in regards to strength and mobility.
