    The Healing Power of Sound & The Self with Trilla

    “When I’m on stage, I just want people to feel like they can take their armour off. Like maybe there’s nothing wrong here after all.” – Trilla This conversation touches everything — voice, grief, healing, truth and coming home. In this episode of Beyond Turning Points, I sit down with dear friend and gifted artist Trilla for a deep and honest exploration of creativity, sound and self-connection. We talk about her journey through chronic pain, emotional numbness, and personal transformation, and how music has been both her medicine and her mirror. We also explore: •Slowing down as a spiritual and nervous system practice •Singing as a portal to presence and resonance •Trauma, sobriety and the courage to face yourself •The role of ceremony, plant medicine and post-ceremonial integration •Building community through choirs, mentoring and sacred spaces •The power of leading with vulnerability — even on stage To get in touch with Trilla or listen to her music: https://trilla.au/ https://www.instagram.com/trilla_sol  Want to share your work with more confidence and clarity?

    Riding the Rapids of Life with Ryan Gittoes

    This episode is very close to my heart. “If you asked how much connection currency I have in the bank… I’m loaded.”  Ryan In this episode of Beyond Turning Points, I sit down with one of my dearest friends and creative collaborators Ryan Gittoes. We’ve shared hundreds of adventures, gigs and soul-searching conversations and this episode captures the essence of all of it. Ryan speaks candidly about a pivotal moment in his early 20s, standing on a job site as a fourth-generation plumber and asking himself: “Is this why I’m here?” The answer was no. We dive into:  • The leap from plumbing to music and the courage to follow a calling  • The magic and mayhem of early share house days  • Building and the imminent closing of his creative studio on Tamborine Mountain  • His powerful work with people of “unique abilities” and why that language matters  • Creativity, presence and staying human in an AI-saturated world Ryan is honest about being in the rapids right now – letting go of something he built with love, facing uncertainty and still choosing to back himself.  This conversation is for the conscious creatives, the empaths and the adventurers who are navigating their own wild waters. Would love to hear any thoughts or insights in the comments.

    The 6 Stages of Shedding Identity

    In this episode, Ash unpacks The 6 Stages of Shedding Identity – a practical yet soulful process for anyone who feels the pull to evolve, shift, or step more fully into their true self. Through personal stories and client insights, you’ll discover how ego disguises itself, why letting go feels so hard, why relapse is actually normal, and what it really takes to reach “escape velocity” and live aligned with your heart. This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level change. It’s about understanding the deeper process of identity transformation – and learning how to back yourself even when doubt, fear, or old structures try to pull you back. ⸻ What You’ll Learn •Why awareness is the spark that begins every change •How the ego works subtly to keep you tied to old identities •The holographic nature of life – why shedding in one area ripples across others •Why relapse is normal in behaviour change and how to meet it with compassion •How to listen to your humanness without obeying it •What it takes to break free and live as your true self Resources & Links •Take the Visibility Quiz – for heart-centred professionals wanting to share their work with the world: https://visibilitylevel.scoreapp.com/ •Take the Inner Critic Quiz – if you’re ready to break free from the shackles of identity: https://innercritic.scoreapp.com/ Send me a message on socials -Message 'IDENTITY' for the 6 Stages AI Prompt or 'HELLO' to explore working together: •TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@_ashperrow •Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ashperrow •Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AshPerrow •LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashperrow •YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/AshPerrow Share the Love If this episode resonates, share it with a friend who’s navigating change.
