    She Escaped With a Suitcase and Built a Community of 5,000 Women

    What does it take to turn loneliness into belonging? In this episode of The View From Here, Nikki sits down with Toni Dee, founder of SLAM Society, a women’s community created to help women connect, feel supported, and walk into spaces where they no longer have to feel alone. Toni’s story is one of deep loss, migration, single motherhood, resilience, reinvention, and learning how to rebuild when life asks you to start again. After moving to Cronulla and experiencing a familiar feeling of isolation, Toni chose to create what she once needed most: a village. Today, SLAM Society brings thousands of women together through events, retreats, networking, travel, and real-life connection. This conversation explores the quiet strength behind Toni’s journey, the power of community, and what can happen when the chapters that nearly broke you become the very thing that helps others heal.

    Episode 32: BPD, Identity and the Power of Being Seen

    In this episode of The View From Here, Nikki Van Blair shares a story of identity, resilience, representation and self-acceptance. By day, Nikki works in advertising compliance. By night, she steps into the world of professional wrestling, using performance, presence and visibility to create space for others who may not have always seen themselves represented. As a queer trans woman of colour living with BPD, Nikki speaks openly about what it has taken to move from seeing her diagnosis as a burden to understanding it as part of her sensitivity, awareness and strength. This conversation explores the impact of emotional ambiguity in relationships, the journey back to self-worth, the pressure of carrying what others may never have to think about, and the power of trusting your instincts, boundaries and truth. Nikki’s story is honest, brave and deeply human, a reminder that sometimes the parts of ourselves we once tried to hide can become the very things that create change for someone else.

    The One Habit That Saved My Life

    What does success really mean if you lose your peace along the way? In Episode 31 of The View From Here, I sit down with Tom Cronin, former bond and swap broker, international speaker, author, leadership trainer, and a powerful voice in the space of conscious leadership and wellbeing. For more than two decades, Tom worked in the intensity of global financial markets, surrounded by pressure, speed, competition, and constant decision-making. From the outside, it looked like success, but behind the achievement was a deeper search for peace, meaning, and a different way of living. In this conversation, we explore high performance, burnout, meditation, ancestral money patterns, purpose, leadership, and what it means to create impact without losing yourself in the process. This is a conversation for anyone who has ever questioned whether the life they are building is also allowing them to feel truly fulfilled.

    Episode 30 - Keane Marsh: Burnout, Loss and Becoming Who You Really Are

    Some chapters of life break you open in ways you never expected and if you let them, they can also reshape the way you see everything. In this episode of The View From Here, I sit down with Keane Marsh for a conversation about grief, burnout, identity, pressure, purpose, and the moments that force you to rebuild from the inside out. Keane shares the experiences that have most shaped his life, losing his mum at 19, navigating deep personal loss, questioning his identity, surviving extreme burnout, walking away from what was no longer right, and learning how to stop abandoning himself in the process of trying to be everything for everyone else. This is a conversation about what happens when life strips away the version of you that was built to survive… and invites you to become someone more honest, grounded, and free. It’s raw, thoughtful, and full of perspective. A powerful reminder that success means very little if it costs you yourself.

    What happens when the dream you worked so hard for no longer feels like your own? In Episode 29 of The View From Here, Nikki sits down with Australian actress, filmmaker, writer, director and former elite athlete Jane Larkin for a deeply honest conversation about identity, ambition, motherhood and the realities behind success. Jane shares what it means to move from representing Australia on the track to creating award-winning work on screen, while navigating the loneliness of post-production, the invisible weight of motherhood and the frustration of watching women’s work, stories and sacrifices continue to be overlooked. This episode explores what we choose to celebrate, why support can disappear when someone steps fully into their ambition, and the courage it takes to keep creating when the path has been anything but easy. A powerful conversation about shifting perspectives, questioning inherited dreams, finding fuel in frustration and remembering that love may be the answer beneath it all.

    Episode 28 - Kylie Harris: Burnout, Resilience, Money Mindset and Redefining Success

    What happens when the life you worked so hard to build no longer feels like the life you want to keep living? In this episode of The View From Here, Kylie Harris reflects on the years that reshaped her relationship with pressure, achievement, rest, and fulfilment. For a long time, slowing down felt dangerous. Rest carried the fear of losing everything, falling behind, or letting people down. But with hindsight came a different perspective: fulfilment is not found in constantly performing or proving your worth. It is found in the freedom to choose how you spend your days and the peace that comes from finally trusting yourself within them. Kylie also explores the many different parts that make us who we are, and the power that comes from learning to understand and embrace every version of ourselves. A powerful conversation about resilience, identity, perspective, and discovering what truly matters when the pressure to keep moving begins to fall away.

Jan shares her transition from corporate finance into financial therapy, what it took to trust her voice in a completely new chapter, and why helping women step into their financial power has become such meaningful work.
