You've been putting it off. That conversation, that email, that ask. And you've been telling yourself it's not the right time — but the truth is, fear has been running the show.

In this episode of the Redo You podcast, confidence coach Emma Hull breaks down why fear — not laziness, not lack of motivation — is the real reason you're holding yourself back. Emma shares the exact framework she taught at a live confidence workshop that stopped attendees in their tracks: how to identify your fear, fact-check the story your brain is spinning, and shift into action from a place of empowerment rather than dread. If you've ever felt stuck in a loop of overthinking and inaction, this episode is for you.

What You'll Discover In This Episode

• Why confidence work is really fear work — and what that means for you
• How your brain fabricates stories to keep you stuck (and how to catch it in the act)
• A simple fact-checking method to separate real risk from made-up worst-case scenarios
• How to use best-case visualization to shift your body out of fear and into action
• Why what you look for is exactly what you'll find — and how to use that in your favor

You've been saying yes when your energy can't afford it — and somewhere deep down, you already know it. If you're constantly running on empty and can't figure out why, this one's for you.

Your Energy Is a Bank Account — Are You Overdrawn? is the concept Emma unpacks in this short but powerful episode of the Redo You podcast. Just like a financial budget, your energy has income and withdrawals — and when you stop paying attention to the balance, everything starts to cost more than it should. This episode is your reminder to get intentional about where your energy is going, what's quietly draining it, and what actually fills it back up.

What You'll Discover in This Episode:

• Why your energy works exactly like a bank account — and how to stop overdrawing it
• How one small yes can quietly drain your energy for the entire week ahead
• The concept of "budget line items" for your energy — because not everything draws from the same reserve
• How to identify the people, activities, and commitments that replenish you versus the ones that deplete you
• Why protecting your energy isn't selfish — it's the most important thing you can do for yourself and everyone around you

You're holding it all together on the outside — career, family, home — and yet you're exhausted in a way that a good night's sleep never seems to fix. You're not lazy. You're not imagining it. And you're definitely not alone. Something is off, and this episode is going to help you figure out what.

Emma welcomes guest host Amy Pawliuk, Holistic Nutritionist and founder of Wild Wellness Holistic Nutrition, to break down the most common reasons women over 40 struggle with low energy — and what you can actually do about it. Amy covers the three root causes behind fatigue that most women don't know about: what you're eating, how well your body digests it, and whether your cells can actually use the fuel you're giving them. Eating for energy, gut health, insulin sensitivity, iron levels — it's all connected, and Amy explains it in plain English so you can stop guessing and start feeling better.

What you'll discover in this episode:

Why undereating — not overeating — could be the reason you have no energy

How poor gut health quietly drains your body's ability to function

What insulin resistance actually is and why your blood work might look "normal" while your body is struggling

The link between iron levels, oxygen delivery, and why you feel so flat

The simple first step Amy recommends before making any big changes to your diet

Some days, the alarm feels pointless. Some days, getting out of bed feels like the hardest thing you've ever been asked to do. You're not alone — and you're not broken.

Even life coaches have stretches where the bad days stack up. In this episode of the Redo You podcast, Emma gets radically honest about the fact that 2026 didn't start the way she planned — and shares the one simple strategy that helped her keep going. The anchor activity method is a practical, no-pressure tool for getting through your hardest days with your sense of worth and momentum intact. Whether you're in the middle of a rough week, a rough month, or just a rough morning, this episode meets you exactly where you are.

What you'll discover in this episode:

• Why having one anchor commitment each day can quietly rebuild your motivation when nothing else feels possible
• How accountability with another person makes the difference between intentions and follow-through
• Why it's okay if something feels insurmountable today — and might feel easy tomorrow
• The real reason bad days don't define you or your progress
• How to stop waiting to feel better before you start moving forward

Is the Camino de Santiago safe for a woman to walk alone?

This is one of the most common questions women ask when they’re thinking about walking the Camino solo, and it’s exactly what I’m answering in this episode.

I spent 31 days walking the Camino Portuguese alone, starting in Lisbon, walking through Porto, Santiago, and continuing on to Finisterre. In this episode of the Redo You Podcast, I share my real, lived experience of what safety was actually like as a solo female pilgrim, including the fears I had before I started, the precautions I took, and what actually happened on the trail.

If you’re worried about personal safety, shared accommodation, carrying valuables, or walking alone through cities and isolated sections, this episode will give you honest reassurance based on experience, not fear-based storytelling.

This episode is especially for women who feel called to walk the Camino but are wondering if it’s truly safe to do it on their own.

In this episode, we cover:

Personal safety as a woman walking the Camino alone

Arriving in Lisbon solo and navigating the city at night

Hostel security, lockers, and protecting your valuables

Whether money belts and padlocks are actually necessary

Staying in albergues and sharing dorms with men

Walking alone through cities, industrial areas, and rural sections

Road walking safety between Lisbon and Porto

Flooded trails, river crossings, and unexpected environmental risks

Ride shares, buses, and public transportation safety

The kindness of strangers and the Camino community

Why fear doesn’t deserve to decide whether you go

I don’t regret walking the Camino de Santiago. Not for a second.

But after 31 days and nearly 800 kilometers, I learned a lot the hard way.

In this episode, I’m sharing ten very real, very human mistakes I made while walking the Camino, plus one bonus mistake I wouldn’t repeat if I did it again. This episode is a little tongue-in-cheek, but if you’re planning your own Camino, these lessons could save you pain, exhaustion, and unnecessary stress.

Whether you’re dreaming about walking the Camino someday or you’re already deep in planning mode, this episode will help you approach it with more confidence, flexibility, and self-trust.

In this episode, I talk about:

Why overestimating your capacity can derail your Camino early

The truth about pack weight and why even “light” can be too heavy

Why my hiking boots failed me on the Portuguese Camino

Meal planning mistakes that caught me completely off guard

Why evening energy is basically a myth on the Camino

Walking alone vs walking with others and what surprised me most

Why you should not use ChatGPT to plan your Camino route

The importance of buffer days and integration time

Why flexibility matters more than sticking to one route

How better research could have completely changed my experience

The one luxury mistake I wouldn’t repeat if I did the Camino again

This episode isn’t about doing the Camino “right.”

It’s about walking your Camino in a way that actually supports you.

Most New Year’s resolutions fail, not because you lack discipline or motivation, but because they are built on pressure instead of intention.

In this Boxing Day episode of the Redo You Podcast, Emma invites you into the quiet space between Christmas and New Year, the pause where reflection naturally happens. Instead of rushing into resolutions, she offers a grounded, compassionate approach to setting goals that actually stick.

Using her own 2026 vision, including the ambitious goal of walking the Great Divide Trail, Emma walks you through how to think less about what you want to do and more about who you want to become. This episode is about turning dreams into decisions, and decisions into small, meaningful steps.

If you are craving clarity, direction, and a way to move into 2026 that feels intentional instead of overwhelming, this episode is for you.

A Year in Review: What I’m Proud Of, What Was Hard, and Who I’m Becoming

In this episode of Redo You, I’m reflecting honestly on the past year. Not just the highlight reel, but the full picture. The growth, the grief, the strength, and the becoming.

This year stretched me in every direction. From setting the fastest known time walking from Squamish to Pemberton, to flying across the world to walk the Camino de Santiago. From becoming the strongest and fittest I’ve ever been, to navigating deep changes in my relationships. From rediscovering my love of the outdoors and solo adventures, to saying goodbye to my beloved dog, Johnny Cash.

This episode is an invitation to pause and reflect on your own year. The highs, the lows, and everything in between. Because it all counts. It all shapes you. And none of it is wasted.

If you’ve been feeling reflective, emotional, proud, tender, or quietly changed by this past year, this one is for you.
