[your only chance to get 40% off regular pricing]

in today’s nervous system literacy series, we’re diving into hypervigilance — that constant state of alert that can leave you exhausted, anxious, or people-pleasing without even realizing it. hypervigilance is a survival response, and depending on your nervous system wiring, it can show up as defensiveness, fawning, or a quiet internal buzz while you appear calm. i’ll walk you through how hypervigilance shows up in your body and mind, the polyvagal science behind it, and practical ways to start creating safety and shifting your nervous system without forcing yourself to relax.

trying a fun new little series on nervous system literacy, get ready to geek out with some nuanced neuroscience and straight talking somatics in practical and digestible way!

in today’s nervous system literacy series, we’re unpacking two states that often get lumped together but feel very different from the inside out — freeze and shutdown. both are survival responses, both can leave you stuck, and both are misunderstood (often labelled as laziness or lack of willpower). i’ll walk you through how each state shows up in your body and mind, the polyvagal science behind them, and practical, tangible ways to start shifting out of them without pushing yourself into more overwhelm

Why rest, laughter, and nature are medicine — especially for deep feelers and high performers
The power of group nervous system healing, and what we’re most excited for at our Spring Retreat in the Otways
The difference between surviving and thriving (and how safety comes first)

If your body is craving slowness, softness, and a sense of “ohhhh… I finally feel like me again,” this one’s for you.

JOIN EMBODIED AUTHORITY for just $197

https://finding-flowstate.com/authority

in this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on the sneaky link between imposter syndrome and tall poppy syndrome—and why your fear of being “too much” is probably not just a mindset issue. i’ll walk you through the somatic and subconscious roots of self-doubt, and why so many high-achieving women feel like they have to choose between being brilliant and being liked. if you’ve ever dimmed your light to stay safe, second-guessed yourself after a win, or felt the sting of being “too loud,” “too confident,” or “too ambitious”—this one’s for you. we’re not here to fix you. we’re here to rewire the nervous system that learned to self-protect through shrinking.

076 REAL TALK: why modern self-love is idealistic & commercialised (and what to do instead)

Sun, 08 Dec 2024 16:00:00 +1100

TW: grief, loss, disordered eating

In this vulnerable and slightly 🌶️ spicy 🌶️ episode of Finding Flow State, we dive deep into how modern self-love has become a commodity and why its idealistic portrayal often falls short of true self-acceptance and healing. We'll unpack how the self-love industry has turned authentic self-care into a trend, driven by capitalism, and why embracing self-worth and holistic practices is a far more effective approach to emotional wellness.

We dive into:

- How guilt shame has shaped my identity
- Embracing my dark and twisty
- The yogic philosophy on self love
- The alternative to 'self love'

069 chronic pain, accidental sobriety & leaving the corporate hustle for soul-led entrepreneurship With Dan

Sat, 07 Sep 2024 10:00:00 +1000

This is an inspiring, nothing-off-limits conversation with Dan, a Movement & Mindset Transformation Coach living in Sydney after doing a complete 180 on his past life climbing the corporate ladder:

We chat about:

- What to do when you you feel like you're 'drifting' through life despite your achievements
- Dan's accidental journey to sobriety and a frank discussion on the influence of alcohol on our culture
- Recognising privilege whilst still recognising your challenges
- A conversation around chronic pain and how yoga was pivotal in Dan's journey

Dan began his transformation journey 14 years ago, in an attempt to improve his limited mobility in his hips which were the result of number hip reconstructions during his childhood & had left him with chronic pain, scoliosis & stage 4 osteoarthritis by the age of 35.

Dan takes the lessons taught from the ancient yogis, applied for the modern world to create powerful, lasting transformation for his clients both in body & mind.

Outside of coaching you can find him either swimming in the ocean, hiking the NSW national parks or on the sofa with his nose in a book and a cat (or two) on his lap.

059 conscious parenting, triggers, sacred rage & all things nervous system with Emma Hopper

Thu, 02 May 2024 07:00:00 +1000

A powerful conversation with Emma, a trauma-informed coach who helps parents create safe & deeply connected relationships with their children by cultivating emotional intelligence within their family.

This episode is for EVERYONE, not just parents because these tools will support ALL of your relationships. We discuss:

Why you get triggered and how to actually take ACTION to change your reactiojns
Why self awareness is NOT enough
The guilt of mum rage and how to move past it
Using somatics to be a more conscious communicator
What your emotions are telling you

More about Emma:

Emma developed a passion for supporting other parents as a result of the struggles she faced in her own parenting journey. Becoming a mom to two beautiful, cheeky children brought overwhelming emotions, reactivity, rage & mental health issues that not only impacted her, but the entire family. She has since undertaken extensive training in trauma, mind-body connection, nervous system regulation & emotional intelligence as she found support and resources hard to come by.

Emma’s life mission is to bring about a new parenting paradigm that takes a proactive & preventative approach to emotional and mental wellbeing by helping parents learn how to manage their frustrations, stress and emotions so they can be calmer, happier and more present with their children. Resulting in raising children who are more self aware, regulated and able to manage their emotions and behaviour in a more positive way.

035 ego deaths & shedding identities 🐍🐍🐍

Fri, 21 Jul 2023 05:00:00 +1000

There was no episode last week as I recorded this one and thought I'd deleted it but it mysteriously ended up back on my laptop which I am THRILLED about because it's a good one!

This episode is about figuring out what identities you are attached too and who you would be without them. I speak on why it's important to CHOOSE what you identify with when forming new habits and knowing why you might be holding onto previous versions of yourself, for example in my journey moving from clinical veterinary work to life coaching.

I'd love to hear what you think and what identities you are currently feeling attached to, send me a message on IG!

034 finding food freedom & body image challenges with Stacie

Fri, 07 Jul 2023 14:00:00 +1000

This is such a powerful, healing conversation with Stacie from HeartSpace with Stacie that was an absolute pleasure to record. Stacie is a Food Freedom and Body Image Coach with a Masters in Health Psychology. Whilst there is a *trigger warning* because we do discuss weight loss, eating disorders, extreme exercise, body shaming etc, I do highly recommend listening to this episode.

We cover:
- Stacie's journey overcoming amenorrhoea (loss of periods) due to excessive exercise and food restriction and coming to a place of body acceptance and health
- How yoga and the mind-body connection was such a powerful part of this journey
- What food freedom actually is and whether it's possible
- Why we fixate on body parts or perceived flaws and how to move past this

Tue, 06 Jun 2023 06:00:00 +1000

You might notice a change here! Formerly called Authentic Imperfection, this episode is introducing a new name for the podcast.

015 grief, guilt & forgiving yourself (unfiltered personal story)

Tue, 31 Jan 2023 05:00:00 +1100

*TRIGGER WARNING* for grief, mental health.

This week was the 10 year anniversary of losing someone very close to me and it felt inauthentic to share anything else when this topic was on my mind and my heart more than ever at this particular time of year.

This episode is very vulnerable, raw and may be uncomfortable listening as I discuss how grief has shaped who I am and how I show up in this world. I wanted to share some of the less-spoken-about aspects of grieving and this is a very personal story. I can only speak for my my personal experience with the hope that sharing my truth might just make someone else feel less alone. This definitely isn't a motivational, inspiring episode but felt critically important to share.

If you need help processing grief, please contact Lifeline Australia on 13 11 14 or visit www.lifeline.org.au
