This week, Jenny sits down with the powerhouse that is Buckso, an actress, speaker, and all-round force of nature. Buckso didn’t even think about acting until she was 37 – before that, she was working on the railways! She opens up about battling imposter syndrome, carving out a career in TV, and realising that her true calling went way beyond acting.

Breaking the Rules & Doing Life Her Way

Buckso gets real about defying family expectations, especially when it came to who she married. Going against tradition wasn’t easy – it led to years of tension and even estrangement. But with time, healing, and a whole lot of self-discovery, she found her own way forward (even if some relationships remained complicated).

A Spiritual Awakening That Changed Everything

When her father passed away, something shifted. Buckso had a huge wake-up call and realised she wasn’t just here to act—she was here to help others find their voice. That’s how her platform, Haus of Wisdom, was born, creating a space for deep conversations and personal growth.

Staying Grounded in a Chaotic World

Buckso has no time for energy-draining nonsense. She shares her go-to practices for staying sane:

✔ Cutting back on news and social media (no doom-scrolling here!)

✔ Meditating in a copper pyramid (yes, really!)

✔ Staying grateful and being mindful of who and what she allows into her space

How to Break Free from the ‘JAIL’ That’s Holding You Back

Ever feel stuck in your own head? Buckso introduces her JAIL framework – Judgement, Agenda, Intentions, Lies – which she says keeps people trapped in their own limitations. Her advice? Ask more questions, let go of what people think, and don’t be afraid to live life on your terms.

Final Thoughts & What’s Next

Jenny and Buckso wrap things up with a chat about what’s coming next for her, including exciting projects and ways to get involved. The key takeaway? It’s never too late to find your purpose and start living authentically.
