  • You're Still Your Own Biggest Roadblock
    Bold visions require bold moves. That means being seen before you feel ready, starting before it’s perfect, and choosing your dream over your comfort zone — every single time.

    TikTok: @gigifarierYou have the vision. You know what you want. So why are you still waiting? In this episode, Gigi gets honest about the real reason most people never start — and it’s not resources, timing, or talent. It’s the weight of other people’s opinions, your own assumptions, and a perfectionism habit that’s dressed itself up as preparation. This episode is your permission slip to move anyway.

  • Sooo What Happened to #WakeUpToWisdom?
    WakeUpToWisdom is back. And in true Gigi Farier fashion — we’re starting with the real story.
    In this season two opener, Gigi takes us through the two years that kept her away from this microphone. Not one thing. Everything. Consecutive losses of close friends. A relationship ending. Apartments falling through. Bodybuilding preps that didn’t go to plan. Financial instability. Friendships evolving. And through all of it — the quietly disorienting process of unmasking as an AuDHD woman, possibly for the first time in her life.
    She opens up about the self doubt that crept in — am I too weird, do I go too deep, does anyone actually want to hear what I have to say? And how studying psychology didn’t make things easier — it made her more careful, more ethical, more intentional about the responsibility that comes with having a platform and a voice people trust.
    But this episode isn’t about the losses. It’s about what emerged from them.
    Gigi shares how her AuDHD diagnosis reignited something in her — a clarity of purpose, a permission to finally be fully herself, and a legacy living approach that reframed everything she had been through. The losses didn’t break her story. They became part of it.
    WakeUpToWisdom was always therapeutic for Gigi’s own healing journey. Coming back to this microphone is both a personal return and a purposeful one — because the conversations this show was built for are needed now more than ever.
    This is Season 2. This is the rebirth. And we’re just getting started.
    For the woman who has ever wondered if she’s too much — this episode is for you. 🎙️

  • Tales From My Twenties : Life Lessons Unlocked

  • The Awkward Nature of Grief & Our Generic Approach To It.
    Not everyone approaches grief with the compassion needed. Some reactions can be so hurtful and upsetting they can bring up anger we never knew we had and sometimes the loss in and of itself can spiral us into deep depression and a sea of endless thought and longing for those we miss the most. This episode was not the easiest to flow through and record at many points I lost my train of thought or just plainly wanted to cry so there will be a part two when I feel called to continue it because there’s much more to say but for now I hope this helps those who it is designed for. May anyone who’s grieving find the things they need to have a healthy relationship with grief and loss if we choose to view it as loss and may we be supported in the ways we individually need at least by one source. Sending love to you and honestly to myself. Grief is a rollercoaster at times and ocean at others a tidal wave and sometimes a very calm m river or lake. It i ohh DEEPLY personal yet often shared while still being felt solely by the i social in ways anyone outside them may never fathom- May we have all we need to survive the bad days and see the sun or even learn to be hopeful again. Dedicated to the memory of my 3 favourite Angels T, J and J and of course to yours too. 🤍

  • Body Talk
    Often we know exactly what’s for us and what’s not but we spend so much time ignoring ourselves sometimes that we become numb to the signs signals and warnings our bodies send us to alert us that whatever we are doing ain’t for us or at least not any more or not right now. This episode explores some signals our bodies send us when it’s time for change. Intuitively we know, we’ve got to stop suppressing the signs when the body “talks”, it’s time to listen.

  • What to do When the People we Expect to Support us Don’t
    Looking for support and validation from expected yet incapable sources can be one of the toughest pills to swallow and dealing with it can most definitely get the best of us. I’ve dealt with this a lot and I’m still learning but who says I can share my findings as I grow so hopefully we can grow together. Enjoy 🤍

  • Blessings in my Lessons - what my fitness journey taught me about life this year.
    I’m definitely a woman of metaphors and connecting the dots is a tool I utilise for growth. I am highly comparative and that sometimes really helps me deduce massive and crucial lessons from sometimes what might be deemed as very simple situations. This episode touches on everything from imposter syndrome to internal glass ceilings, to how judgmental preconceived notions can really impede our ability to see peoples’ truth and even our own. My journey has taught me so much and I hope it can help you too.
