This episode is a little different.
Because this time I'm in the hot seat.

I was invited by the incredible Helen Pinkett to be a guest on her show, and the conversation went deep. She gave me full permission to share it with you here and I knew I had to, because it's one of the most honest, unfiltered interviews I've ever given.

This is the story behind the brand.
The woman behind the frameworks.
The rebel behind the rebellion.

And I want you to hear it.

• The moment I stopped performing and started leading.
  How trauma, burnout, and loss cracked me open and led to the work I now do with elite performers.

• Why I no longer believe in surface-level healing.
  The shift that happened when I realised mindset wasn't enough and what had to change in my nervous system to finally feel safe holding the success I had built.

• The truth about being 'the strong one.'
  What happens when your strength becomes your mask and how I stripped it back without falling apart.

• My personal identity pivots.
  From elite sport to the corporate world to coaching and why each phase required a completely different level of self-trust, self-leadership, and inner rebellion.

• The subconscious sabotage no one talks about.
  Why you can be smart, strategic, and successful and still quietly fear losing it all. (And what I now know about rewiring this from the inside out.)

• How I became the woman who now coaches the world's most visible women.
  The unglamorous inner work that got me here and what it actually takes to lead when you're the one being watched.

• You can't hold a new level if your nervous system still thinks it's a threat.

• Healing isn't a phase it's a recalibration process that deepens as you rise.

• The version of you who built this isn't the one who's meant to carry it forever.

• Real alignment isn't always loud sometimes, it starts with surrender.

• You don't have to prove your power. You just have to stop hiding it.

"When I dropped the mask, I found the woman."
"Your system can't lie it always tells the truth before your mind catches up."
"The minute you stop performing, your real power starts leading."
"Healing isn't about fixing yourself it's about finally trusting yourself."

This is for the woman who looks like she's got it all together but still feels the weight of holding it.

You're not alone.
And you're not broken.
You're just ready to stop hiding behind the version of you that kept it all together.

She burned the labels. Dropped the titles. Walked through the fire and came home to herself.

This isn't a "10-step strategy" chat. It's a pour-your-drink conversation about letting go before life rips it from your hands, trusting your timing, and learning to receive instead of perform.

The mind screams urgency. The body whispers truth.

• Outgrown your own highlight reel

• Tried to "schedule" surrender

• Said "I'm fine" while your body yelled nope

• Letting go before it's forced

• The unsexy art of receiving

• Bell peppers, lobsters & nature as a mentor (yes, really)

This one's for the women who know they're intuitive as hell but still second-guess themselves…
The ones who've been called "too much" or "woo woo"...

The ones who are ready to stop hiding their magic and own the power they've been sitting on for decades.

I sat down with Helen Pinkett - intuitive energy healer, soul-led mentor, and professional permission-slip-give for a real, no-fluff convo on spiritual gifts, energy, resilience, and why fun is the most underrated manifestation hack in the game.

From shutting down her gifts to reclaiming them publicly (and powerfully), Helen shares what it really looks like to lead with frequency, rewrite the rules, and live a life that feels as good as it looks.

• The Box Doesn't Fit Anymore: why Helen ditched the labels and built a business around raw energy, not credentials

• Out of the Spiritual Closet: what it takes to finally say "this is who I am" even when people don't get it

• Black Sheep to Badass Leader: how being the odd one out became her biggest power source

• Messy Goddess Energy™: why imperfection, fun, and play are your actual magic and how to stop performing and start feeling good

• Manifestation in Real Life: the real, raw story I share about pregnancy, play, and surrender (spoiler: it's not about doing more)

• Top Energy Reset Trick: press play, dance like no one's watching, and raise your damn vibration (Helen's daily ritual to shift any funk fast)

• "You can't align your life if you're still pretending to be someone else."

• "There is no certification for being who the fuck you are."

• "You don't need to hustle harder. You need to feel better."

• "Fun is not the reward. It's the requirement."

• "Your body knows before your brain does. Always."

She's launching Messy Goddess soon for women ready to ditch perfection and claim their juicy, wild, unfiltered power.

This episode is a full permission slip for the woman who:

• Feels her intuition rising but is still playing it safe

• Has a fire in her that scares her (good)

• Knows her gifts go beyond strategy, but hasn't claimed them fully (yet)

• Is tired of trying to be "polished" and just wants to feel like herself again

🎧 Listen now. Then share it with your rebel sisters who are ready to rise.

Because the world doesn't need another perfectly-curated expert.
It needs you. Messy. Magnetic. Wildly on purpose.
