    What if you’ve done all the mindset work… and you still don’t feel different?

    I sat down with Sarah Scully-Leaf in Bali to talk about PTSD, nervous system regulation, capacity and what can happen when we stop trying to think our way through everything. This was a personal conversation for both of us, with Sarah sharing her own experience with PTSD, chronic pain and people pleasing, alongside my experience of PTSD after leaving the Police and the work Sarah and I have been doing together. We talk about: Why Sarah describes your nervous system as a personal security system PTSD, trauma and the limitations we both experienced with talk therapy What it actually means to expand your capacity Breathwork, somatic work and hypnotherapy People pleasing, boundaries and learning to handle discomfort Self-trust and making decisions without constantly seeking validation The small choices that can show us just how much we’ve changed Why Sarah believes life can become greater than we imagine Find Sarah Instagram: @sarahscullyleaf Website: https://sarahscullyleaf.com Have a story you’d love to share or know someone we should sit down with?

    If I died tomorrow, would my son really know me? | The 100 Stories Project

    If I died tomorrow, how much would my three-year-old son actually remember about me? That question has been sitting with me for a while. Archie is only 3 years. And while he’d have photos and people around him who could tell him stories about his mum, the reality is there would probably only be little glimmers of his own memories of me. One day, he might Google my name. And if he does, I want him to find me. My stories, my words, my voice. The things I believed in. The businesses I built. My time in the police. The hard stuff. The funny stuff. How I met his dad. The things I learnt and the things I’d want him to know about his mum. It started with me writing a book for Archie filled with 100 of those stories. And somewhere along the way, I realised how many other people have stories sitting inside them that have never been captured either. That became The 100 Stories Project. A mission to sit down with 100 people and capture the stories, experiences and knowledge that might otherwise never be told. In this solo episode, I share the story behind the project, why Archie is such a big part of it, what I’m building next and the conversations you can expect over the next 100 episodes. **Be part of The 100 Stories Project** Have a story you’d love to share, or know someone I should sit down with?

    Your child knowing their ABCs won’t necessarily make them ready for school.

    In this episode, I sit down with Emma and Susan from Set for School to unpack what being “school ready” actually means. With my son Archie getting closer to school age, this was a personal conversation about the things many parents wonder about confidence, independence, separation, big emotions and whether we’re doing enough to prepare our kids. We talk about: Why school readiness is about more than academics Building confidence, independence and resilience Separation anxiety and big emotions Simple ways to prepare your child at home The everyday skills that build fine motor strength and independence When to start thinking about school readiness Why parents should trust their instincts Find Set for School Instagram: @setforschoolsyd Book a free trial: www.setforschool.com.au Be part of The 100 Stories ProjectHave a story you’d love to share or know someone we should sit down with?

    Building a $1M business while being a dad, leading a team and trying to have a life.

    What does it actually look like behind the scenes of a business hitting $1 million in revenue? I sat down with Damien Jones, founder of Pumped Plumbing, to talk about the growth, pressure and lessons that don’t always make it onto social media. We talk about:- Hitting $1M in business this year and the struggles nobody really talks about - Growing up with parents who ran restaurants and what it taught him about business and customer experience - Building a team that feels more like family, while still balancing leadership and camaraderie - How showing the real behind-the-scenes of Pumped Plumbing on social media has helped attract new talent - Why being genuine online has become such an important part of their brand - Navigating life as a dad, business owner and soon-to-be husband - The things Damien does to stay fresh, look after himself and keep growing Find Damien & Pumped Plumbing: Website: https://www.pumpedplumbing.com Instagram: @pumpedplumbing96 The 100 Stories Project We’re on a mission to capture 100 stories that matter.

    This episode honestly felt like sitting down with a friend and having one of those conversations that shifts something deep inside you. In this episode, I sit down with Annelise McCarthy, known online as Her Speaking Coach, to unpack self-talk, identity, confidence, people pleasing, performance, and the journey of becoming the woman you were always meant to be. We talk about: - overcoming negative self-talk - rebuilding identity outside of achievement - perfectionism, burnout, and people pleasing - learning to trust yourself - using your voice- solo travel, solo dating, and self-worth - creativity, performance, and self-expression - what happens when you stop living for external validation Annelise shares her journey from law and teaching into entrepreneurship, the inner work that changed her life, and the moment she finally felt like she truly saw herself for the first time. This conversation is emotional, powerful, funny, healing, and deeply honest. If you’ve ever felt disconnected from yourself, struggled with confidence, or felt like you’ve spent years becoming who everyone else needed you to be… this episode is for you. Hope you enjoy xx You can find Annelise IG @theannelisemccarthy LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/annelise-mccarthy-b31533142/ www.herspeakingcoach.com
