We spend so much time focusing on where we haven't arrived yet that we rarely stop to recognise just how far we've come.

In this episode, I share a powerful exercise I’ve been using in recent workshops with people of all ages, industries, and backgrounds.

The results were extraordinary.

As people reflected on the past five years of their lives, many reflected on their achievements, challenges they'd overcome, relationships they'd built, and personal growth they'd completely forgotten.

But this isn't just about looking backward.

It's about seeing the evidence of your progress and how it changes how you see yourself... and why that shift might be the very thing that unlocks your next chapter.

I talk about why we often minimise our own progress, how our past can become proof of what's possible, and ask one simple question that could completely change the way you think about your future.

If you've been feeling stuck, questioning yourself, or wondering whether you're capable of something bigger, this episode offers a fresh perspective that may change far more than you expect.

Key takeaways:

o Why looking back may be the fastest way to move forward.

o The surprising reason we forget just how much we've already overcome.

o How one simple exercise can completely change the way you see yourself.

o What your past reveals about what you're capable of next.

o The question that helps you create your next five years with intention.

o Why your future isn't built by achievements alone... but by who you become along the way.

o How seeing yourself differently can change everything that comes next.

What if the voice you've been trusting is your conditioned mind... repeating everything it's ever known?

This conversation with holistic coach and leadership mentor Linda Stocco explores the kind of courage needed to trust yourself when the answers don't come from your head, but from somewhere much deeper.

Linda shares the deeply personal experiences that shaped the way she now works with people, from losing her father at just 23 and making a life-changing decision about how she wanted to approach relationships, to recovering from a serious spinal injury that challenged everything she thought she knew about healing.

Along the way, she unpacks the powerful connection between our body, mind, emotions, and intuition, and why true transformation rarely happens through logic alone.

Together, we uncover why your conditioned mind may be keeping you stuck in old patterns, what becomes possible when you learn to trust the wisdom of your body instead, and how slowing down can become the catalyst for your greatest growth.

We also explore why perimenopause can be an unexpected invitation into a new chapter, and how seeing another person's perspective can completely change the conversations that matter most.

If you've ever felt torn between what your head is telling you and what your heart or gut already knows, this conversation will help you decide what’s right.

Key takeaways:

o Why your body may already know the answer before your mind does.

o What losing someone can teach you about how you choose to live.

o How healing begins long before the physical symptoms disappear.

o How your conditioned mind may be holding you back without you even realising it.

o The shifts that happen when you truly see another person's perspective.

o How trusting your intuition can transform the way you lead, work, and live.

o The hidden cost of ignoring your inner voice... and what changes when you finally listen.

o Why perimenopause can become the beginning of your next chapter.

What happens when your gut knows the answer... but your head hasn't caught up yet?

In this deeply honest conversation, I sit down with financial planner, university lecturer, podcaster, and ultramarathon runner Jane Lim to explore what courage really looks like when life asks you to make some of its biggest decisions.

Jane shares her journey of rebuilding her life after leaving her marriage, and how important decisions can feel right even if they don’t make sense on paper.

We also talk about how watching her family lose everything shaped her relationship with money, why a curious mind has become one of her greatest strengths, and how a simple daily walk after separation eventually led her to running ultramarathons.

This isn't just a conversation about making decisions

It's about learning to trust yourself when certainty isn't available, backing yourself one small step at a time, and discovering that action is often the catalyst that changes everything.

If you've been sitting on a decision, wondering whether to stay where you are or step into the unknown, this episode is a beautiful reminder that you don't need all the answers before you take the next step.

Key takeaways:

o Why some of life's biggest decisions never make sense on paper.

o How to trust your gut when your mind hasn't caught up.

o How daily walks led to ultramarathons... and changed Jane's life.

o Why a curious mind can be your greatest superpower.

o Why the hardest things shouldn't be done alone.

o What it really means to back yourself when everything feels uncertain.
