    Trusting the Leap: From Scarcity to Abundance — with Tanya Roberts

    What does it really take to build something from nothing — when logic says quit, the odds are stacked against you and all you have left is trust? In this episode, I sit down with Tanya “Tanz” Roberts, founder of Eco Cheeks and MindFlow Alchemy, to talk about what it means to follow your intuition in business and in life. Tanya shares how she built an eco-luxury bamboo tissue brand as a solo mum with no business background, no investors, and no safety net — and how that journey taught her the power of energy, mindset and self-belief. We talk about trusting the nudge when fear feels louder, moving from scarcity to abundance and why real success starts with inner alignment, not outer validation. This is an episode about courage, clarity, and backing yourself — even when it makes no sense on paper.

    From Pressure to Power: Women’s Health in Every Season

    We’re told that perimenopause and menopause mark a decline — a slowing down, a loss, something to be endured. But what if that story isn’t true? In this episode of Cut The Crap Podcast, Dr. Keri Krieger joins me to talk about the seasons we move through as women- physically, emotionally and energetically and why these transitions hold more power and potential than we’ve been led to believe. Keri shares her insights from over two decades as a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine, practitioner and educator. Together, we explore how social pressures, shame and outdated narratives shape our relationship with our bodies and how we can start rewriting that story. This conversation is about moving from pressure to power, learning to listen to our bodies and embracing every season of womanhood with curiosity, honesty, and strength.

    From 7 Figures to Self Regulation and Family

    Lauren Bath began her career as a chef before becoming Australia’s first professional Instagrammer. What followed was a whirlwind of global photography tours, brand deals and a seven-figure business but behind the highlight reel was an addictive hustle that left her burnt out and disconnected. Motherhood became her wake-up call. After the birth of her daughter and during her second pregnancy, Lauren knew she had to choose a different way of living. In this conversation, she opens up about letting go of hustle, finding freedom in self-regulation and the grounding practices that brought her back to herself. If you’ve ever felt trapped by doing more, chasing more or being “always on,” this episode will remind you that success isn’t about the hustle. It’s about creating a life you can actually live. In this episode you’ll learn: How Lauren went from chef to Instagram fame and global photography tours The truth about hustle culture and the addiction behind it How motherhood became the catalyst for real change Why self-regulation and grounding rituals are essential for balance The power of choosing family and freedom over striving FOLLOW LAUREN Instagram: @laurenepbath Web: https://laurenbath.com/ FOLLOW US Watch on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Thecutthecrappodcast Follow us on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cutthecrappodcast/ Join us.
