Courage In Heels: Journey From Runways To Real Estate w/ Holly Carroll EP 165

Holly Carroll's journey from international runway model to Miss Canada to luxury realtor isn't just a story of career transitions—it's a masterclass in authentic transformation. When life brought her to a breaking point after a difficult breakup, Holly made what seemed like an unlikely choice: entering a pageant competition despite having no pageant experience. That leap of faith not only resulted in a crown but began a profound healing journey.

The confidence required to step into unfamiliar territory became a theme throughout Holly's evolution. Though countless people suggested she pursue real estate, she initially resisted. When she finally embraced the opportunity, she discovered that modeling had perfectly prepared her for this new path—both careers involve self-promotion and product representation. The key difference? Real estate allowed her to move beyond surface-level connections and engage with clients on a deeper, more emotionally resonant level.

Rather than conforming to the cutthroat stereotype of the real estate industry, Holly has intentionally worked to transform transactions into collaborative experiences. This authenticity extends to her bestselling book "Closing Deals in Heels," which required her to confront all versions of herself throughout her life. What began as a business guide evolved into something more profound—a healing resource that helps readers feel less alone in their struggles.

Unleashing Your Magnetic Essence: From Burnout To Abundance w/ Bolutiwi Aiyesimoju EP 164

Shifting from corporate success to soulful abundance isn't just about changing careers—it's about transforming identity. Bestselling author  Bolutiwi Aiyesimoju shares her powerful journey from corporate burnout to creating a life of magnetic abundance.

"You don't get what you want. You get what you believe you deserve,"  Bolutiwi explains, revealing why so many high-achieving women remain trapped in cycles of working harder without receiving more. Drawing from her 22-year international career and subsequent transformation, she unpacks the subtle ways our subconscious beliefs block prosperity.

The conversation delves into  Bolutiwi groundbreaking Rekindle program and its six transformational phases: Release, Relax, Reconnect, Re-envision, Rejoice, and Receive. She challenges conventional thinking about rest, explaining why "rest isn't lazy—it's strategic" and essential for magnetizing abundance. I was particularly struck by her insight that "burnout happens when you're going through the motions but your soul has departed"—a wake-up call for anyone feeling disconnected from their work.

Breathing Through Abundance Blocks: A Somatic Approach to Wealth Creation w/ Erin Newman EP 163

Ready to transform your relationship with money from the inside out? Spiritual life and abundance coach Erin Newman reveals the missing piece in most financial advice: the critical connection between your nervous system and your bank account.

During our fascinating conversation, Erin shares how her personal journey from financial limitation to abundance led her to develop powerful somatic and ancestral healing techniques specifically designed for female entrepreneurs. The game-changing insight? It's not your strategies that are holding you back from earning an additional $5-10K monthly—it's the unconscious beliefs stored in your body and inherited from generations of women before you.

You'll discover why developing deep conviction in your value creates the energetic foundation for wealth, how dancing and breathwork can reprogram your nervous system's response to money, and a surprisingly simple paper exercise that reveals your hidden financial blocks. Erin explains that self-sabotage happens below the radar of conscious awareness, as your body attempts to "protect" you by maintaining your current income level.

From Kids Come First To Me Come First: A Motherhood Revolution w/ Emma Edwards EP 162

The revolutionary concept of "Mum First" turns traditional parenting wisdom upside down—and it might just transform your family dynamics forever. Emma Edwards, transformational coach and founder of the Mum First membership, reveals why the well-worn "kids come first" mentality actually limits our capacity as parents and teaches our children problematic patterns about self-worth.

Through her own powerful story of transformation that began when her marriage unexpectedly dissolved, Emma shares how she discovered that standing in her own truth and energy actually made her more powerful and present for her children. "When we can stand in our own truth and act in ways that fulfill us, we're demonstrating to them that when we do that, we're more powerful in the world. We're able to give them more."

This conversation challenges our deepest assumptions about what makes a good mother. Emma explains that by shifting from perpetual sacrifice to radical self-leadership, we model healthy boundaries and authenticity for our children. This isn't about adding more to your already overwhelming to-do list—it's about a fundamental shift in how you show up in the world. As Emma beautifully states, "Mum First is a state of being, not a to-do list."

The Courageous Journey To Metabolic Balance And Lasting Health For Women Over 40 w/ Lisa Mackay EP 161

"Choose foods that nourish and nurture you, and eat mindfully not mindlessly." These powerful words from metabolic and weight loss expert Lisa Mackay encapsulate her revolutionary approach to helping women over 40 reclaim their health, energy, and confidence.

What if the reason diets haven't worked for you isn't lack of willpower, but simply that you've been following advice that doesn't match your unique body chemistry? Lisa reveals how her Metabolic Balance program uses personalized pathology testing to create tailored nutrition plans that work with—not against—your body's natural processes.

The conversation delves into the crucial difference between standard medical "reference ranges" and the optimal ranges that signal true metabolic health. Lisa explains how inflammation becomes the hidden saboteur of weight management and overall wellbeing, especially as we age. Her refreshingly honest approach acknowledges the confusion many women feel when bombarded with conflicting nutrition advice.

Reconnecting with Your Body: The Ancient Art of Vulva Bathing w/ Sarah Hughes-Wade EP 160

At the intersection of ancient wisdom and modern women's wellness lies a forgotten practice that's changing lives. Sarah Hughes Wade discovered vulva bathing—an Ayurvedic ritual known as Uttaravasti—during her personal struggle with perimenopausal symptoms, heavy bleeding, and fibroids. When faced with the limited options of antidepressants or HRT from conventional medicine, Sarah chose a different path.

The results were nothing short of transformative. After implementing this gentle practice of bathing the vulva, vagina, and womb with herbal elixirs, Sarah experienced remarkable relief from symptoms that had severely impacted her quality of life. "My joint pains have eased, my brain fog has gone, I've got full flexibility in my shoulder," she shares with genuine amazement at the practice's effectiveness against menopausal symptoms.

As a yoga teacher grounded in Ayurvedic knowledge, Sarah views the vulva bathing practice as part of a larger journey toward reconnection—with our bodies, our power, and our innate wisdom. 

Through her book "The Healing Art of Vulva Bathing" and her Vulva Moon Club, Sarah hopes to transform what's often considered taboo into an empowering self-care ritual. It's about taking sovereignty over your health and reconnecting with a part of the body society often tells women to ignore or be ashamed of.

Reclaiming Your Inner Power: A Spiritual Surgeon's Guide w/ Cam Kashani EP 159

Spiritual surgeon Cam Kashani shatters the fundamental lie most of us have believed since childhood—that power exists outside ourselves. Through her deeply personal journey from trauma and divorce to spiritual awakening, Cam reveals how she transformed victim consciousness into embodied feminine power and now guides other women to do the same.

The conversation delves into why healing feels counterintuitive yet transformative, with Cam sharing her profound insight that "a feeling fully felt lasts only 90 seconds." This perspective reframes our relationship with emotional pain, showing how brief moments of courage can lead to lasting freedom. Her three-part healing methodology—connecting with your inner child, accessing your higher self, and embodying your divine feminine energy—offers a comprehensive pathway to authentic power.

Most compelling is Cam's observation that adults are essentially "traumatized little children running around in big people's bodies." This framework explains why we struggle to speak up (fear and lack of self-worth), why women have disconnected from their inherent power (conditioning from conception onward), and why intuition becomes clearer as we heal our trauma and honor our physical vessels.

Throughout the discussion, Cam emphasises that reclaiming your authentic self requires both gentleness and courage—the willingness to face discomfort while trusting yourself completely. Her message resonates with anyone who has ever felt powerless, unworthy, or disconnected from their truth, offering a compassionate roadmap back to wholeness. This isn't just about healing; it's about remembering who you've always been beneath the conditioning and trauma.

From Assholes To Awesome: Journey To Joy And Happiness w/ Ernest Wood EP 145

Have you ever wondered how a person can transform from being overwhelmed by self-doubt to embodying gratitude and empathy?

Meet Ernest Wood, a US Navy veteran, author, and coach who shares his inspiring journey of personal transformation. Ernest reveals how pivotal moments, such as a road rage incident and being unfavorably compared to a coworker, became wake-up calls that spurred his growth. His candid reflections on conquering resentment and learning self-acceptance provide invaluable insights into becoming a role model for others.

Exploring balance through an unconventional lens, we challenge the typical approach of dividing time equally among work, family, and personal endeavors. Instead, we delve into establishing a foundation built on four crucial pillars: physical health, mental health, relationships, and legacy. Through Ernest's personal stories and acts of kindness, like donating book profits inspired by a young leukemia patient, we illustrate how clear communication and intention can lead to a life enriched with gratitude and understanding.

Forgiveness and courage lie at the heart of our conversation as Ernest shares his experiences with familial depression and unresolved conflicts. We discuss the power of self-reflection and the courage it takes to face personal fears, using Ernest's journey as a testament to personal growth. By embracing mentorship, accountability, and the art of journaling, you too can embark on your journey towards self-improvement. Join us as we explore how confronting fears, like looking at oneself in the mirror, can transform your life and help you become the best version of yourself.
