Would anyone stay till the end of the movie of your life, or would they walk out halfway through?
In this solo episode, I share the game I've been playing lately: treating my life like a movie and choosing to be the main character, not the sidekick or the NPC things just happen to. We talk about main character energy, using the "act as if" technique to build confidence before you feel ready, and why being a little delusional is what makes a life worth watching. It's a 3-step mindset shift that gets you to stop living for the audience and start living for you.
If you've been playing it safe, waiting to feel ready, or living the version of your life you think other people want to see, this episode is for you!
In this episode we cover:
How to choose your character: getting clear on the goals, values and style of the person you actually want to be
Why acting as if is really just practice, and how your brain catches up to your actions
The four words that can change your whole life: "what if I just…"
Doing it for the plot, and why safe and comfortable makes a boring movie
How to become the watcher of your own life so failures stop defining you and start building your hero's journey

8 years hiding an eating disorder | my recovery story
"The fear of staying in this forever became greater than the fear of change."Content note: this episode talks openly about eating disorders and recovery. No specific behaviours are discussed, but please look after yourself while you listen.For every year of my twenties, I had an eating disorder. Every birthday I wished this would be the year it stopped, and every year the shame got heavier. This year I finally told someone and got help. This episode isn't about what bulimia took from me. It's about eating disorder recovery, what I got back, and why the things I was most scared of losing turned out to be the opposite.If you've been quietly struggling with your relationship with food, telling yourself it's "not bad enough" to get help, or you're scared that recovery means losing your discipline and your identity, I want this episode to take some of that fear away. Scary things aren't bad things.If you've ever felt like your eating disorder is the only thing keeping you in control, this episode is for you!In this episode we cover:- Why I was so scared of recovery, and why everything I feared ended up being false- How disordered eating can hide behind discipline, routine and "looking healthy"- Telling the difference between your eating disorder voice and your healthy self- Why there's no light bulb moment, and what actually helped me heal- Keeping discipline in recovery by channelling it into the rest of your life- Your questions: intuitive eating, food noise vs an eating disorder, and whether bodybuilding was to blameIf you're struggling, you don't have to do this alone.

Eugene Teo: How To Reinvent Yourself (Without Crashing Out)
You spent years becoming the "perfect" version of yourself, so why does hitting the goal feel like nothing?
Eugene Teo built one of the most respected names in fitness as a competitive bodybuilder, then walked away from the physique he was known for. In this episode we get into identity, self-worth, and what happens when the thing you've tied your whole sense of self to stops serving you. Eugene is refreshingly calm and clear about it: the discipline was never really about the body, and the moment he stopped chasing what he "should" look like was the moment everything opened up. We talk about why achievement can leave you empty, how fear quietly drives so much of our "motivation," and why he thinks the real skill is learning to redirect who you are instead of clinging to who you were.
If you've ever felt lost stepping away from a sport, a goal, or an identity you outgrew — or you're stuck doing what you think you should do — this episode is for you!
In this episode we cover:
Why "killing off" an old version of yourself is the scary, necessary price of growth
How Eugene separated his self-worth from how his body looks
The fear hiding underneath most "discipline" and goal-chasing
Why burnout isn't from doing too much — it's from doing the wrong things
How to get "delusional" enough to build a life that stands out
Learning to tell the difference between your intuition and your old programming
