How many times have you decided what you want, only to quietly change your mind a few days later?

In this episode, Suzanne unpacks the real reason so many smart, capable humans stall out. It's rarely a lack of ideas or motivation. It's the constant resetting. The pivoting. The "new plan" rush that interrupts momentum before it ever has a chance to build.

If you've ever:

• Started something strong and lost steam.

• Switched strategies mid-way through.

• Talked yourself out of a goal because it got uncomfortable.

• Fallen for bright shiny object syndrome.

This episode is your mirror.

Suzanne explores the difference between wanting and deciding, why repetition matters more than intensity, and how to stop reopening the negotiation with yourself every time the messy middle feels awkward.

You don't need a new goal.

You need to stop changing the one you already chose.

If you want structure and community while you practise this, The Done Era is where we do that work together.

What if some of your people-pleasing patterns didn't start in adulthood but on the school oval?

In this episode, I reflect on something many of us experienced but rarely question, the early environments that quietly taught us belonging mattered more than comfort.

• The subtle conditioning that teaches us discomfort is the price of belonging.

• Why forced participation builds shame, while chosen discomfort builds confidence.

• How early environments shape our relationship with visibility.

• The survival strategies many capable adults are still running.

• Why courage is not always pushing harder, sometimes it is stepping off the track.

If this episode stirred something in you, these are exactly the kinds of conversations we have inside The Done Era. It's a space for people who are done abandoning themselves and ready to choose differently.

Passive income gets sold as the ultimate business dream.

Make money while you sleep. Predictable months. Freedom.

But what if recurring revenue is not actually passive?

In this episode, I'm talking about the crucial difference between having an audience and having paying clients, why a successful launch does not always mean you should build a membership, and the emotional reality of holding ongoing containers.

This is not financial advice. It is grounded perspective for people who want to build businesses that support their lives instead of quietly consuming them.

If you're tired of the laptop lifestyle narrative and craving something more sustainable, this conversation is for you.

If you want the deeper, behind-the-scenes layer, I share real numbers, real decisions, and the unfiltered realities of running a membership inside the Done Diaries, available in the Premium tier of The Done Era.

Ever had someone disappear, then pop back into your life like nothing happened?

There is a name for that behaviour: zombieing.

In this episode, Suzanne explores the difference between healthy reconnection and the emotionally disorienting experience of someone resurfacing only when it suits them.

Because this is not just about annoying messaging habits. It's about self-respect, emotional availability, and who gets access to you.

You will learn:

• What "zombieing" actually is.

• Why it hits harder than we expect.

• The hidden question it triggers: Am I only visible when I'm useful?

• How people-pleasers often respond.

• A simple, grounded way to address it without drama.

• Why boundaries and compassion can coexist.

This episode is an invitation to become more discerning with your energy while staying open-hearted.

Listener reflection: Have you ever been zombied? And more importantly, have you ever done it to someone else?

Come continue the conversation inside The Done Era community where we talk about the real relational dynamics that shape our lives.

Because your energy is not a public utility.

There's a moment that doesn't get talked about enough.

It comes after you start saying no. After you stop over-explaining. After you stop contorting yourself to keep everyone comfortable.

At first, it feels powerful. Liberating. Like finally exhaling. Then it gets weird.

You feel untethered. Hollow. Disoriented. You start wondering who you even are without being the reliable one, the fixer, the emotional glue.

This is the identity hangover.

In this episode, I unpack:

• Why people-pleasing is an identity, not just a habit.

• The strange emptiness that shows up when old patterns fall away.

• Why that discomfort means you are doing it right.

• How to navigate the messy middle without running back to overgiving.

If you are in that tender in-between phase, this episode is for you.

If this episode hits somewhere tender, you might feel very at home inside The Done Era, my community for recovering people-pleasers who are done abandoning themselves.

Being "easy to be around" is often praised.

But for many of us, it's not a personality trait. It's a survival strategy.

In this episode, I talk about the quiet, socially acceptable ways self-abandonment shows up in everyday life, how it slowly drains your energy and clarity, and why guilt appears when you start choosing yourself.

This is not about fixing yourself. It's about naming what's been happening.

If you're tired of putting yourself last to keep the peace, this conversation is for you.

If you want to keep exploring this work in a real, human way, The Done Era is where these conversations continue.

This episode came straight out of a moment inside The Done Era community. We played an A to Z game where everyone named something they were completely done with, and the responses turned into a collective manifesto I haven't been able to stop thinking about. It was honest, cathartic, a little spicy, and a full body exhale for so many of us.

Inside this episode I share:

• Our community's unfiltered A to Z of things we are done with.
• Why naming what you're done with can feel like dropping a backpack you didn't know you were carrying.
• How letting go of something often opens new kinds of connection.
• The freedom that comes from choosing yourself without justification.

My hope is that hearing these back to back gives you the same permission it gave us. The kind that whispers hey, you're allowed to put that down. You're allowed to change. You're allowed to choose yourself without giving anyone a five point essay.

If something inside you nods along or exhales while you listen, take that as your sign. Your done era starts with naming what you're done with, and if you want more of this energy in your corner, here's the link to join The Done Era community.

In this episode, I'm talking about the part of growth nobody glamorises online. Not the breakthroughs. Not the wins. The bruise pokes.

The moments where stretching into something new lights up the oldest, rawest stories you thought you'd already healed.

In this episode I discuss:

• Why growth often reactivates old abandonment and rejection wounds.
• How your body confuses present-day expansion with past danger.
• Why tenderness doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong.
• The myth of "if I were confident enough, this wouldn't bother me."
• How to meet the bruise without shrinking, spiralling, or fixing.
• Simple ways to soothe the younger parts of you that panic when things get bigger.

This is a grounded, real conversation about the messy emotional underbelly of transformation.

If you've ever wondered why getting what you want can still feel wobbly, raw, or "too much," this one's for you.

Come tell me in The Done Era where is growth poking your old bruise right now?

We glorify finishing, the neat endings, the polished goodbyes, the stories that wrap up with a bow. But most endings aren't neat. They're quiet, messy, or gut-wrenching.

This episode is for the part of you that knows something's done, but keeps hoping you can fix it, revive it, or make it pretty. Whether it's a job, a friendship, a creative project, or a whole identity, there's a moment when you realise: "If it costs me peace, it's already too expensive."

In this episode I discuss:

• The myth of the tidy ending (and why we chase it).

• The moment you know you're done, not when it's over, but when it's draining you.

• How to hold the grief tangled up with the relief.

• Why letting go is the most honest kind of self-respect.

You'll leave this one feeling lighter and maybe ready to finally call DONE on something that's been weighing you down.

If this hits, join me live for my next workshop "Done Is a Decision" inside The Done Era where we talk about how to spot when something's run its course and how to let it go without guilt.

This one's for everyone who's ever been labelled "too loud, too direct, too intense, too much." In this episode I rant (lovingly) about:

• Why "too much" is rarely about you and always about them.

• Boundaries 101: you're not responsible for other adults' inboxes or podcast apps.

• How to stop shrinking to fit someone else's comfort zone.
