  1. Overcoming Anxiety - My Journey

    5D AGO

    Overcoming Anxiety - My Journey

    Two years ago, I couldn’t walk twenty minutes from my front door without knowing there was a toilet nearby. Today, I’m travelling through Asia with no fixed plans, no mapped-out exits, and no certainty about what comes next. In this deeply personal solo episode, I open up about my experience with anxiety and toilet anxiety — the shame, the isolation, the avoidance, and the long process of slowly rebuilding trust with my body and nervous system. This isn’t a “5 steps to fix your anxiety” episode. It’s an honest conversation about what actually helped: Understanding the gut-brain connectionExposure and facing fearBreathwork and nervous system regulationAcupuncture, movement, journalling and communityLearning to sit with uncertainty instead of fighting itMost importantly, this episode is about the relationship we build with anxiety over time. Because freedom isn’t the absence of anxiety — it’s learning that fear no longer gets to run your life. If this has been part of your story too, I’d genuinely love to hear from you.Follow your intuition, do everything with love, and just see where it takes you. #Anxiety #MentalHealth #ToiletAnxiety #PersonalGrowth #HealingJourney #Podcast #GrowWithTheFlo #Agoraphobia #MentalHealthAwareness

  2. Is Stress the Price of Success? | Aline Werner

    Is Stress the Price of Success? | Aline Werner

    In this episode, I sit down with Aline Werner, someone who’s been navigating two worlds that don’t naturally seem to fit together. On one side: corporate structure, pressure, performance.On the other: yoga, personal growth, well-being, and spirituality. For a long time, these worlds felt separate — almost incompatible.But Aline is now stepping into what she calls the “Business Hippie”… someone trying to bridge both. We started this conversation with a question that stuck with me: Is stress actually a sign of success? And interestingly… we never really came back to answer it. Maybe because the answer isn’t that simple. We talk about the pressure to perform, the identity behind being “busy,” and the subtle ways stress can become something we hold onto — even when it’s draining us. This isn’t a conversation about eliminating stress.It’s about understanding our relationship to it. About noticing when ambition turns into tension.And questioning whether the life we’re building actually feels good to live. What I appreciated most is how honestly Aline speaks about navigating both worlds — without pretending to have it all figured out. Aline is a lawyer by background and has spent years working in corporate environments, including compliance and internal auditing. Alongside this, she has built a path in fitness, coaching, and personal development. She describes herself as a “Business Hippie” — someone who doesn’t want to choose between ambition and well-being, but instead explores how both can coexist. Her work today includes coaching, speaking, and creating spaces that support both professional and personal growth. About Aline WernerKey Takeaways Stress can become part of our identity — not just a reactionBeing “busy” often feels like progress, even when it isn’tBalancing ambition and well-being isn’t about choosing one over the otherAwareness is the first step to changing your relationship with stressIf you’ve ever felt like slowing down means falling behind, this conversation invites you to question that belief — and maybe redefine what success actually looks like for you.

    I Thought I Wanted Freedom… Now I’m Drowning in It

    I thought I was creating freedom by letting go of everything—my job, my relationship, my routine. But instead, I found myself drifting. In this episode, I explore what happens when you lose all your anchors, why too much freedom can feel overwhelming, and what it actually takes to rebuild stability without feeling trapped.

    Your Goals Are Destined to Fail

    Most goals don’t fail because of you — they fail because of how they’re set. In this episode, I break down the SMART framework, why even “good” goals don’t work, and the missing piece most people ignore: sustainability. Because a goal that only works on your best days… isn’t a good goal.

    I Didn’t Expect This to Happen During My Fast

    This was my first fast and it definitely didn't go as I expected. 110 hours - That's how long I didn't eat. Ironically, when I just started, my flatmate just happened to finish their fast and were already back to indulging in all the foods they missed out on, so ... Challenge accepted!

  6. Something Has to Die. I’m Killing Half My Projects.

    Something Has to Die. I’m Killing Half My Projects.

    I built too much. Apps. Retreat ideas. Business concepts and websites. New directions every few months. On paper, it looked ambitious. In reality, it felt fragmented. In this episode, I share why I’m deliberately killing half my projects — and what it means to choose depth over distraction. We talk about: Ego and external validation. Fear of mediocrity. Why starting is easier than staying. And why growth sometimes requires subtraction. If everything matters, nothing compounds. Maybe it’s time to prune.

  7. Will I Ever Be Truly Great at Anything?

    MAR 9

    Will I Ever Be Truly Great at Anything?

    I’ve tried a lot of things in my life. Dance. Acroyoga. Business. Apps. Retreats. Podcasting. Fitness. Travel. Ideas on top of ideas. And lately I’ve been wondering if being a “jack of all trades” is a strength… or just a polite way of saying I never stay long enough to master anything. In this episode, I explore: The fear of being average. The tension between curiosity and commitment. Why starting feels easier than staying. And whether greatness requires narrowing down. Maybe the problem isn’t having many interests. Maybe it’s never choosing which one deserves your full depth.

  8. I Faced My Anxiety on a 5-Hour Bus Ride.

    I Faced My Anxiety on a 5-Hour Bus Ride.

    I almost didn’t go to Sigiriya. The plan was simple: take a local bus, travel for hours, explore somewhere new. But my anxiety had other plans. In this episode, I share something different — I recorded myself before the journey and again after arriving. Raw. Unfiltered. We talk about: Toilet anxiety and lack of control. The spiral before committing. The physical sensations of fear. What changed once I arrived. And what anxiety teaches us about avoidance. Sometimes courage isn’t climbing a mountain. Sometimes it’s getting on the bus anyway.
