Lindsay Perry opens up about the inner chapters that shaped her far beyond what’s visible on the surface. She reflects on the fears that come with going all in on yourself and the quiet, often uncomfortable decision to back your vision before certainty exists. Lindsay shares how learning to sit with discomfort, rather than outrun it, became the turning point that changed not only her own life, but the lives of the people she now serves. She speaks candidly about creating an emotional state that allows her to be fully present in everyday moments, to enjoy what she’s built, stay energised, and show up for others without draining her emotional or physical reserves. This internal foundation has been key to sustaining growth, leadership, and impact without burning herself out in the process. Throughout the conversation, Lindsay reveals the parts of her story that are often missed: the reality that the highs are high and the lows are low. She shares how depression and darkness became unexpected accelerators for growth, moving her through courage, vulnerability, fear, doubt, rejection, and limiting self-belief. From her first competition to navigating binge eating, opening a gym, building teams, failing professional requirements, and stepping into leadership. Each phase demanded deeper self-awareness and identity work. Lindsay also reflects on the pressure high-achievers carry quietly, particularly the guilt that can sit between business ownership, ambition, and parenting. She speaks honestly about presence, being needed, and the grief that can arise when you realise how much time was spent hustling to arrive and how learning to lead from alignment rather than urgency has reshaped her relationship with success. A central theme of this conversation is artistry, not just as creativity, but as a calling into deeper growth, professional development, and meaningful impact. Lindsay shares how inner work, reconnecting with her inner child, and dismantling old stories has allowed her to see herself through an entirely new lens, one rooted in self-trust, expansion, and purpose. This episode is a reflection on identity, pressure, fulfilment, and perspective. On building community, family, and self from an authentic place. And on understanding The View From Here as both who you are today and who you’ll one day look back on with clarity, compassion, and pride.
