    S4 Ep #101 - The 3 Biggest Takeaways From My Most Recent May 2026 Retreat

    After every retreat, I like to sit down and reflect on what actually happened in the room. Because no two retreats are ever the same. Different women. Different ages. Different stories. And yet there are always a few themes that keep showing up. This retreat had women ranging from their 30s through to their 70s, many of whom had never done anything like this before. What surprised them most wasn't some big breakthrough moment. It was how simple it was. Within 24 hours, many of the women went from feeling like they were operating at a constant 10/10 stress level to a 5/10 or lower.  Not because their lives suddenly changed, but because they finally gave their nervous system what it had been asking for. We also explored something I see all the time in my coaching work: the problem we think we have is rarely the actual problem. Feeling overwhelmed. Unable to ask for help. Always needing to be in control. These are often symptoms of something deeper. A fear of disappointing people. A fear of not being enough. A fear that if we stop holding everything together, everything will fall apart. And perhaps the most powerful takeaway of all was the connection. Not because the women had the same lives, but because underneath the different stories were the same feelings. Feeling unseen. Feeling exhausted. Feeling responsible for everyone else. Feeling like they had to keep it together no matter what. In this episode, I share the biggest lessons and observations from our most recent Reset & Rise Retreat, why working with your nervous system doesn't have to be complicated, and what happens when women finally have the space to slow down, be seen and realise they're not the only one carrying what they've been carrying. If you've ever found yourself thinking, "I shouldn't feel this overwhelmed" or "I don't even feel like myself anymore," I think you'll get a lot from this conversation. Next Reset & Rise Retreat dates: 📍 August 21–23, 2026  📍 November 13–15, 2026 📍 Feb 2027 - Waitlist open DM RISE on Instagram or send me a email stacey@staceyallison.com.au if you'd like more information or have any questions.

    S4 Ep #96 - What the Hell Is an Identity Shift? (And Why It Feels So Uncomfortable)

    Most women think something is wrong with them when they start questioning their life. On paper, everything looks fine. You’ve built the life you thought you wanted. You’re doing all the “right” things. And yet… something feels off. You feel restless. Disconnected. Like the version of you who created this life… isn’t the version of you anymore. And that’s the part no one really talks about. In this episode, I’m breaking down what’s actually happening when you feel like this, because it’s not a breakdown. It’s identity change. We go into:  Why so many women hit this point in their 30s and 40s  The identity you built in your 20s (the achiever, the good one, the strong one)  Why that identity starts to feel heavy… and no longer fits  The difference between identity collapse vs identity expansion  Why your brain tries to “fix” the feeling instead of understand it  And how childhood patterns and conditioning are still shaping how you respond to change now This is the part most women get stuck in… They try to go back to who they were. They try to fix the discomfort. They try to make their current life “work” harder. Instead of realising… they’ve outgrown it. I’ll also walk you through how to actually move through this season in a grounded, practical way without blowing your life up, and without abandoning yourself in the process. Because this isn’t a crisis. It’s the moment you stop living from who you were… and start stepping into who you’re becoming. If you’ve been feeling like you don’t recognise yourself lately, or like you’re craving something more but can’t quite explain it… This episode will land.

    S4 Ep #95 - Breathwork, Reiki & a Near-death Experience… This Is What Changed Everything For Erin Norris

    Most women don’t realise how disconnected they’ve become… because on the outside, everything still looks like it’s working. They’re getting things done. Holding it all together. Showing up for everyone else. But internally? They’re in their head. Overthinking. Running on pressure. And completely disconnected from their body and intuition. In this episode, I sit down with past client and friend Erin Norris, who shares her journey from burnout, near-death experience, and emotional overwhelm… to learning how to actually slow down, reconnect, and trust herself and her gifts again. We talk about: Why so many  women are stuck in their head (and don’t even realise it)Erin's personal journey and her wake up callWhat is energy healing and reiki and when they may be useful on your journeyHow disconnection from your body leads to overthinking, anxiety, and burnoutThe subtle signs your body is trying to get your attention (and what most women ignore)Simple, practical ways to use your breath throughout the day — without needing more timeWhy learning to trust yourself again changes everything (in business, motherhood, and life)If you’ve been feeling constantly “on,” struggling to switch off, or like you’ve lost connection with yourself… this episode will hit. You don’t need more strategies. You need to feel safe enough to get out of your head and back into your body. Listen now.

    S4 Ep #94 - I Just Spent 3 Days In A Immersion… Here’s What It Actually Taught Me

    This episode is a little different from the normal. I’ve just landed from a three-day immersion with Jessika Anne and honestly… my brain is still processing it. It wasn’t a fluffy “feel good” personal development weekend. It was confronting, eye-opening and at times uncomfortable in the best possible way. And it reminded me of something I think a lot of women misunderstand about growth. Most people think you do the work once… you have the breakthrough… and then everything in life magically changes. But the truth is.. real growth is a practice. Over those three days we went deep into emotional intelligence, fear patterns, and the internal programs that quietly drive so many of our behaviours. And one of the biggest takeaways for me was this: Most women aren’t stuck because they’re lazy, unmotivated, or not trying hard enough. They’re stuck because they’re running patterns they don’t even realise are there. In this episode I share some of the biggest insights that hit me during the immersion. This conversation is a bit more raw and reflective than usual. It’s not a more polished educational episode. It’s a real reflection on what happens when you step into deeper work and start seeing yourself — and the world — a little differently. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the right things but still questioning why something feels off… This episode might give you a completely different lens on growth. Want to connect?
