    166. Where Are You Stuck?

    We have a powerful episode for you today. Chris is fleshing out a framework inside our Ending Body Burnout Method called Where Are You Stuck? - designed to help you get clear on where you are right now, what’s keeping you looping, and what needs to shift so you can actually move forward.   What you don’t know, you can’t change. And if you’ve been feeling stuck in your healing (or stuck in the same patterns, symptoms, or emotional cycles), this framework will help you get unstuck and moving into the next steps in your healing.   This episode is also a loving call-out to stop being an ostrich with your head in the sand. If you’ve been avoiding the thing you know is keeping you stuck… it’s time to look up and get honest. Yes, it can feel risky. But with risk comes transformation - because growth always comes with a level of discomfort.   And if your heart is resonating with our style of holistic ROOT-root-cause healing & you are DONE with band-aid approaches and “managing” your symptoms and you are ready for real and long-lasting solutions, join the waitlist for our Ending Body Burnout Method (doors open again in June 2026).   Oh and PS if you'd like to learn more about our method we have a FREE Rewire Your Brain to Heal Your Body Burnout coaching week. That's going to be epic. We've had thousands of people attend so far in past sessions. Heaps of value packed inside the coaching workshops!   In today’s episode, Chris will help you: Identify where, why and how you are stuck (so you can actually change it) Why getting clear on your “Present State” is the fastest way to stop spinning in circles in your healing journey How to get clear on where you are now, what you want to move away from, and what you want to move forward to The real question most people avoid: what stops you from having what you want? Why this work can feel “risky” — and why that’s often the exact doorway to transformation How overwhelm keeps you stuck (and why trying to fix everything at once usually backfires) How to recognise the most common reasons you’re stuck, including: Challenges being too high; Unrealistic expectations; Distracted; Unresourceful state; No help / no support   Show Note Links:   Doors opening again in June 2026 to the Ending Body Burnout Method, join the waitlist   Join the waitlist to our FREE Rewire Your Brain To Heal Your Body Burnout here   Take the Ending Body Burnout Assessment here   Disclaimer: This Ending Body Burnout Show podcast and any information, advice, opinions or statements within it do not constitute medical, health care or other professional advice, and are provided for general information purposes only.

    164. 4 Reasons Why Retreats Are So Transformational (& Why You Need More In Your Life)

    As you may know by now, we are holding a transformative ending body burnout retreat experience in August 2026 - The Body Knows Retreat - at The Cove Tasmania (in North-West Tasmania). If you have been umming and ahhhing about attending, and not really sure if it would be worth your time, money and attention, today’s episode will help you to decide! We share our own experiences of attending multi-day retreats and putting on live in person events (some have had 100’s of people attend), and what we have found most transformative - and how they have changed our health and our lives for the better!      In today’s episode, Chris & Filly talk about: Not all retreats are “transformational” and what differentiates this A transformational retreat is an intentionally curated journey The importance of entering a retreat experience with an intention How the unconscious mind starts shifting the moment you say YES to yourself Recognising if you’re running “space & time” scarcity  How carving out time for deep connection is essential for healing and maintaining a beautiful relationship with yourself Surprising stats that demonstrate health benefits even years after a retreat Why your body is craving meaningful connection with other humans, even if your conscious mind doesn’t know it Why nature so deeply supports a human’s healing - it’s in our DNA   Show Note Links:   Book your spot to The Body Knows Retreat - save $500 with our early-bird discount (ends 14 May 2026)   Ending Body Burnout Method program   Take the Ending Body Burnout Assessment here Disclaimer: This Ending Body Burnout Show podcast and any information, advice, opinions or statements within it do not constitute medical, health care or other professional advice, and are provided for general information purposes only.

    163. How Filly Broke Through Subconscious Blocks To Birth The Body Knows Retreat

    I have been dreeeeeeaming about holding a healing, transformative in-person retreat for our community for the last 6 or so months. Actually, if I’m being very transparent, Chris & I have talked about how cool it would be to hold retreats for the last 6 years. But last year, I had a very clear stirring in my heart that NOW is the time. However, my rational, logical mind kept putting it aside - “nah, too much work”, “what if no one comes?”, “life is so nice and cruisey right now, do we really want to be creating another thing?”, “it’s too costly, people say you never make any money with a retreat”...blah…blah…blah…For many months I let my mind rule. Yet along the way, my heart kept prompting me to create a retreat. And every time I listened, I broke through another layer of subconscious blocks, until I took full-blown action!! And I wanted to share how I did this on today’s episode - because essentially, how I moved through the blocks will be the transformative journey we will take you on in our upcoming The Body Knows Retreat in August.    In today’s episode, Chris & Filly talk about: Where the dream of The Body Knows Retreat started The A.L.I.G.N. framework that I used to overcome subconscious blocks around running a retreat - and the same framework that will guide the transformational journey at our retreat Emotional and physical “signals” that showed up, when I kept putting the retreat-creation to the side (including losing my voice!!!) Subconscious blocks and stories that were holding me back, most significantly the hidden “fear” that I’m not the type of woman that could hold space for a multiple-day transformational retreat How I broke through the blocks, including an unexpected rise of grief and sadness around a miscarriage I had in the past during a transformational breathwork session, and how it birthed me into action How I took big, heart-led, aligned action to make this retreat happen A little bonus at the end - a real and raw reading from my 2011 journal entry about my miscarriage   Show Note Links:   Book your spot to The Body Knows Retreat - save $500 with our early-bird discount (ends 14 May 2026)   Come watch Chris & Filly in the musical production, Sunshine on Leith!!    Take the Ending Body Burnout Assessment here Disclaimer: This Ending Body Burnout Show podcast and any information, advice, opinions or statements within it do not constitute medical, health care or other professional advice, and are provided for general information purposes only.

    161. Driving With Chris: The Anti-Perfectionist Episode

    We have a fun, very real, very imperfect episode for you today. Chris is doing a solo podcast… while driving to get a haircut (yep, you heard that right). Filly told Chris, “We need to record a podcast,” and she handballed it to Chris to do a solo episode, as she was focusing on some other exciting projects. Chris was trying to work out what to do, and when to record it “properly” in our fancy recording studio. And then…Chris thought, stuff it! I’m gonna practice what we preach: drop perfectionism, press record, and get it done anyway. And honestly? That’s the lesson. Because perfectionism doesn’t just show up in your health journey - it shows up in your house, your work, your to-do list, your healing protocols, and the way you judge yourself for not keeping up. This episode is a reminder that healing doesn’t require you to do everything perfectly… it requires you to do the next right thing, consistently, with a regulated system. You might even find yourself laughing along, nodding along, and realising you’ve been trying to juggle way more than your system can realistically hold.   In today’s episode, Chris teaches you: How perfectionism can turn simple tasks into “mountains” (like the client whose kitchen table was so overwhelming she couldn’t start) Chris’s juggling metaphor: why 1–3 balls is manageable, and 4–5 balls is where most people start dropping everything How to sort your list into fires (urgent) vs important (not urgent) — and why a burnt out nervous system is wired for urgency How to tell what’s truly important: get clear on your life direction so you stop getting pulled into side quests Chris’s ESE filter to choose your focus: Enjoyable, Energy, Easy   Show Note Links: Join the Ending Body Burnout Method waitlist Take the Ending Body Burnout Assessment here Disclaimer: This Ending Body Burnout Show podcast and any information, advice, opinions or statements within it do not constitute medical, health care or other professional advice, and are provided for general information purposes only.
