Right, let’s talk about it.
2025 feels... dense.
Bit messy. Bit unclear.
You might be thinking, “Why am I not further along by now?”
Yeah, we feel it too.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Why the middle bit of your journey matters
• How we’ve all become obsessed with the “arrival”
• Learning to sit in the stillness (not the same as stagnancy, btw)
• Tiny shifts that change everything
• Letting your shadow have a seat at the table
• Rewriting your own idea of success

This isn’t about hustle.
It’s about honouring the pause.
The weird in-between bit that doesn’t make it to your Insta grid.
It’s the year of the Hermit in Tarot, and yeah — it shows.
Feels like the universe is saying, “Sit down, go within, stop performing.”

So if you’re in a season of quiet, or feeling stuck…
Maybe you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

Pour a tea, get cosy, and let this one land.
There’s magic in the mess, promise.

In this one, you’ll be nodding along with Stacey and Ané as they unpack that all-too-familiar inner tug-of-war:
Are you following your intuition... or self-abandoning to make others happy?

This ep is a gentle (and juicy) convo on:

✨ The fine line between people-pleasing and care
🌀 How to tell if you’ve overridden your intuition
💡 The lessons hiding inside regret (ugh, yes, even the baby shower kind)
💫 What intuition actually feels like in the body — and how to tell it apart from fear, cravings, or old programming
🌙 Why the full moon had us all a bit cooked

Plus, Stacey shares a very raw story about her own self-abandonment moment during her baby shower — and the clarity that followed. Spoiler: it involves heart palpitations and a sacred do-over.

You’ll leave this one feeling less alone, more grounded, and maybe with a few “ohhh THAT’S what that feeling meant” moments.

Feeling like you're not cut out for business because you're not loud enough, spiritual enough, or structured enough? Yeah… nah. In this episode, we’re getting into it.

You’ll hear Stacey reflect on how hard it can feel to show up when you don’t fit the typical ‘biz boss’ mould. That whole shiny, always-on, perfectly curated vibe? It’s exhausting. And it’s not the only way.

We talk:

• The messiness of growing a biz while staying true to your energy
• Feeling wobbly AF when you're putting yourself out there
• Learning to speak from your heart (instead of trying to “market” all the time)
• Why you don’t need to perform spirituality to be spiritual
• That juicy moment when you realise you don’t have to prove sh*t to anyone

This one’s all about trusting your own timing, owning your voice, and remembering that your way is the way. You’ve got permission to build your biz differently. You’ve always had it.
