I met Charlie on the very first day of our psychotherapy training and I immediately knew she was someone I wanted to be around. Over the time of our studies together, driving to class, and just being in each other's lives, I've watched her move through the world in a way with a kind of groundedness that doesn't come from having a plan.

It comes from knowing herself and what she desires in life.
And then TAKING STEPS to make it happen.

Charlie grew up with very little certainty.

Moving countries, moving houses (46 of them, by her count), not knowing when a parent would show up. And rather than becoming someone who desperately chases stability, she became someone who has genuinely made peace with not knowing, and built a life and a business from that place.

IN THIS EPISODE

• How Charlie's childhood (moving constantly, financial instability, parents who came and went) shaped her relationship with uncertainty, and how that looks now
• Her philosophy on money: how much is actually enough, what she's figured out about saving and investing, and why she doesn't want a mortgage (or anything that ties her to one place)
• Her business, Your Sacred Space: women's circles, community, and why she built something intimate on purpose, and how she's about to pack it all into a van and drive it across Australia
• What she's learned about the people we let in: why we don't outgrow people, we outgrow the version of ourselves that tolerated their behaviour
• How to have the hard conversation with a friend you've grown away from, and why kindness always gives you a better chance of something coming back around
• The wellness industry and why "trauma-informed" doesn't mean "trained to work with trauma" — a conversation we felt strongly about
• How to find a therapist: what to look for, why the vibe check is everything, and why ‘shopping’ for a therapist is important
• Why your friends, even the ones who love you most, cannot give you the same thing a therapist can
• What happens when you share a new idea too early, and why the knife to kill your idea should only ever be in your hands
