So Here For It

What if you didn't need a holiday because you actually loved your life? In this episode, I'm sharing why I don't believe in traditional holidays and how I've structured my business and life to include rest, joy, and freedom every single day.

I know this might ruffle some feathers, but there's a massive difference between needing to escape a life you hate and having the choice to work when you want, rest when you need, and design your days on your terms. That's the kind of freedom I've created and it's exactly what I help my clients build too.

In this episode, you'll hear:

• Why I put rest into every single day instead of waiting for a yearly escape
• How I structure my business so it supports the freedom I want (not the other way around)
• The moment I realised I was finally living on MY timeline, not anyone else's
• My tangible end-of-year planning process for 2026 (vision setting, money management, and time management)
• Why manifestation without action and financial literacy keeps you stuck
• How I manage my money weekly so I'm always moving toward my goals

Plus, I'm sharing the exciting family trip to Vietnam we're planning for 2026 and why having something to look forward to is totally different than hating your current life.

If you're ready to build a business and life you don't need a break from, this episode is for you. Let's make 2026 the year you step into real choice and freedom.

Feeling like the strategies that used to work for you just... don't anymore? Welcome to perimenopause, where your body is rewriting all the rules and you're suddenly questioning every decision you make.

In this episode, Amy Mingin cuts through the influencer noise about fasting, GLP-1s, and extreme protocols to give you what actually matters: understanding your cycle and working WITH your body instead of against it.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How to track ovulation naturally (even if you're in your 40s and never learned)
• Why your luteal phase is when everything feels harder and what to do about it
• The "emotional excavating" that happens in the two weeks before your period
• Why slowing down is the smartest thing you can do (not just nice-to-have self-care)
• The two schools of thought on carbs during perimenopause and how to test what works for YOU
• Why you can't exercise your way out of perimenopause symptoms

Amy shares practical strategies for managing stress tolerance, bloating, brain fog, and hormonal symptoms without burning yourself out. This isn't about white-knuckling through with discipline, it's about resetting your nervous system and building a better relationship with your body.

Ready to stop fighting your body and start supporting it? Check out Catalyst, Amy's signature weight release program designed specifically for women navigating these changes.
Remember: If you don't give yourself space to feel it in your luteal phase, it's going to show up as a symptom somewhere else.

If you're a talented practitioner trading time for money, working your ass off, and still struggling to hit $3,000 a month consistently... I need to tell you something you probably don't want to hear: Your hourly rate is keeping you broke.

And I don't care how good you are at what you do. If you're still selling single sessions, you're building a business on quicksand.

In this episode, I'm getting real about:

• The math that doesn't math: Why you'd need 25+ client sessions per month just to make $3K (and why that's not sustainable)
• The client acquisition treadmill and why "more visibility" isn't solving your revenue problem
• The three money blocks keeping smart practitioners undercharging: imposter syndrome, fear of being "salesy," and the "when I'm fully booked" myth
• Why packages create predictable revenue, deeper client transformation, premium positioning, and a sustainable business model
• The real resistance: addressing your fears about "what if no one buys?" and "what if people say it's too expensive?"
• What you actually need: confidence in your value, strategic package structure, and sales conversation skills

I've worked with hundreds of practitioners. Naturopaths, nutritionists, coaches, brilliant, qualified women who are exhausted from hustling for the next booking, terrified of raising their prices, and secretly wondering if they made a mistake going into private practice.

But here's what I know: it's not you. It's the business model.

Here's what's possible: Instead of needing 25 sessions a month to scrape together $3K, what if you had 3-5 package clients paying $1,200-$2,500 upfront? Predictable revenue. Time to breathe. Clients who actually get results. A practice that doesn't burn you out.

Same level of expertise. Radically different business model. Radically different life.

If you're experiencing brain fog, afternoon energy crashes, or constant cravings for carbs and sugar... These are metabolic red flags. And here's what most women don't know: by the time you're feeling tired or foggy, your metabolism has been waving red flags for a while.

In this episode, I'm diving deep into:

• The perimenopause-metabolism connection that no one talks about (and why women 35+ are particularly vulnerable to metabolic dysfunction)
• Why brain fog isn't "just aging", it's your brain struggling to use glucose for fuel, and what the latest research tells us about this
• The 7 metabolic red flags to watch for: energy crashes after eating, constant cravings, brain fog, chronic fatigue, midsection weight gain, sleep disturbances, and frequent headaches
• The insulin resistance-weight gain cycle, and why it's so hard to break once it starts
• Why these symptoms appear BEFORE significant weight gain or abnormal blood work (and why early intervention is everything)
• What to actually DO about it: the testing you need, lifestyle foundations that matter, and how the mind-body connection plays a crucial role

This isn't about another restrictive diet or pushing through fatigue. This is about understanding what your body is trying to tell you and finally giving it what it's been asking for all along.

Going into 2026, what if instead of another year fighting your body, you spent this year learning its language? Understanding what it needs? The women who experience the most profound transformations aren't the ones who white-knuckle their way through another plan, they're the ones who finally understand what's happening in their bodies and partner with that knowledge.

You’ve read the books. You’ve done the courses. You know exactly what to do, so why aren’t you doing it?

In this episode, Amy dives into the hidden reason behind inaction... your nervous system. Drawing on examples from Caleb Ralston, Alex Hormozi, and Gary Vee, she unpacks why only 1% of people actually apply what they learn and how the other 99% stay stuck in the illusion of safety.

You’ll learn:

•  Why your body resists growth (even when your mind wants it)
•  How to tell if you’re in protection vs. expansion mode
•  A powerful “two circles” exercise to regulate overwhelm and return to action
•  How to rewire safety so visibility, clients, and income can flow with ease

If you’ve ever thought, “I know what to do, I just can’t seem to do it,” this episode will hit home.

Join Amy’s upcoming Magnetic & Booked Masterclass — Thursday, October 16 at 7PM QLD time and learn how to attract consistent clients from a regulated, embodied place.
