EP 377: How To Repair Relationships with James Fish Gill
In this episode, I welcome back James Fish Gill — heart coach, transformational facilitator, and author of How to Fall in Love with Humanity. Our last conversation completely transformed the way I think about conflict, particularly the labels we place on people when we're hurt, and I knew I had to bring James back to take this conversation even deeper. We explore what it actually takes to repair conflict, including the words you can use when emotions are running high and why rushing to resolve things isn't always the answer. We also zoom out to look at how these same principles apply to the division we see in the world around us. If you've ever struggled to find peace with someone without feeling like you're condoning their behaviour, this conversation will give you a completely different way to approach conflict. We talk about: The exact words to say in a heated argument to find peace Is it possible to repair without condoning someone's actions? Finding the right moment to repair a relationship Pop psychology misses this one understanding of every conflict Where to find James: Website: https://www.leadbyheart.com/ Instagram: @james_fish_gill Book: How to Fall in Love with Humanity --- 💫 Learn about the Anxiety Reset Practitioner Certification: Click here 💫 Apply for a free Anxiety Relief call to chat to Georgie about joining The Calm Woman Collective: Click here 💫 Discover my latest offerings: Click here 📚 Get my books The Anxiety Reset Method and Master Your Relationship Anxiety: Click here

EP 376: How I Navigated My Life Spinning Out Days Before My Wedding with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie gets real about what she's going through right now - days before her wedding, in the middle of a family conflict that's turned her world upside down. It's been unsettling. It's made her angry. It's required boundaries she didn't want to have to hold, and a refusal to make herself small, at the exact moment she wanted things to feel calm. On top of it all, it's been one of her busiest weeks - client sessions, podcast interviews, even speaking on stage at an event. So she's sharing the actual steps she uses to get through when life becomes a pressure-cooker - not just what happened, but exactly how she supported herself through it.

EP 375: The Trauma Behind Perfectionism & People-Pleasing with Dr Rebecca Ray
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr Rebecca Ray, clinical psychologist and author, to explore what may really be sitting underneath perfectionism, people-pleasing, and the patterns we use to cope with life. We unpack how survival responses learned in childhood can quietly follow us into adulthood — shaping how we behave, relate to others, and respond when we feel overwhelmed. Rebecca also explains why simply understanding why you do something isn't always enough to change it, and what it actually takes to interrupt those familiar spirals. We also hear about one of Rebecca's own hardest experiences and what helped her move through it. If you've ever wondered why you keep falling back into the same patterns despite knowing better, this episode is for you. We talk about: How childhood survival responses quietly run adult life Why perfectionism, people-pleasing and numbing are trauma The reason why understanding isn't enough to break a spiral Rebecca's own hardest challenge — and what helped her through it Where to find Dr Rebecca Ray: Instagram: @drrebeccaray Website: https://rebeccaray.com.au/ Get Rebecca's book: Available in all good bookstores and online retailers across Australia International: Available on Audible (narrated by Dr Rebecca Ray) and Kindle --- 💫 Learn about the Anxiety Reset Practitioner Certification: Click here 💫 Apply for a free Anxiety Relief call to chat to Georgie about joining The Calm Woman Collective: Click here 💫 Discover my latest offerings: Click here 📚 Get my books The Anxiety Reset Method and Master Your Relationship Anxiety: Click here

EP 374: Life Update - The Evolution I Didn't Want To Make with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie gets personal - sharing a life update that's been 18 months in the making. Between time in Bali, her wedding in Italy, and working through a SIBO diagnosis, something bigger has been unfolding underneath it all: a slow, sometimes painful evolution away from an old identity and into a new one. Georgie talks candidly about what it feels like to know a shift is coming long before you're ready to make it - and why clinging to the old way isn't a failure, it's part of the process. If you've ever felt yourself outgrowing a version of you that used to feel safe, this one's for you. 💫 Learn about the Anxiety Reset Practitioner Certification: Click here 💫 Apply for a free Anxiety Relief call to chat to Georgie about joining The Calm Woman Collective: Click here 💫 Discover my latest offerings: Click here 📚 Get my books The Anxiety Reset Method and Master Your Relationship Anxiety: Click here

EP 373: The Neuroscience of Women's Brains & Connection with Dr Sarah McKay
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Sarah McKay — Oxford-trained neuroscientist, educator, and author, whose work is helping us better understand the female brain through every stage of life. Together, we unpack what neuroscience actually tells us about women's brains, from motherhood and matrescence to perimenopause, while busting some of the biggest myths that still shape the way women think about themselves. If you've ever questioned your memory, your focus, or wondered whether your brain is "changing for the worse," this conversation will leave you feeling informed, reassured, and far more compassionate toward yourself. We also explore the science behind human connection and answer one of the biggest questions of all: are men's and women's brains really that different? We talk about: What we know now about women's brains The brain myths you still believe, debunked What in-person connection does to your brain Are men and women's brains different?

EP 372: 21 Things I've Learned After a Decade of Anxiety Work with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie shares 21 things she's noticed after a decade of anxiety work with high-achieving women - the patterns, the myths, and the truths that don't usually get said out loud. From why a diagnosis often never comes, to why successful people are so often anxious, to why "calming down" can actually backfire - this episode is a wide-lens look at what anxiety really is, and isn't. You'll hear why suppression drives more anxiety than stress does, why the goal was never to eliminate anxiety but to understand its message, and why softness - not self-criticism - is what actually works. If you're ready to go deeper, The Anxiety Reset Method and Master Your Relationship Anxiety are both available now. I've got you. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 371: Beyond Botox: Releasing Stress From the Face with Olga Newman
In this episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Olga Newman, whose unique approach to facial massage, fascia release, and breathwork completely changed my perspective on what's possible when it comes to ageing naturally. I was lucky enough to have one of her treatments before we recorded this conversation, and I honestly felt all the tension in my jaw and neck melt away. Together, we explore how years of anxiety and chronic stress can leave their mark on our faces, why shallow breathing and tension patterns matter more than we realise, and the powerful ways breathwork, fascia release, and self-massage can help us look and feel our best—without relying on Botox. If you've ever wondered how stress is showing up in your face, this episode is full of fascinating insights and practical tools. We talk about: What years of anxiety and stress look like on your face Why shallow breathing and pelvic tension so often show up together The way chronic tension (or release) can change how we age How self-massage, fascia release, and breathwork can work better than Botox Where to find Olga: Instagram: @olga_faceup 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

In this episode, Georgie shares two pieces of news she's been so excited to tell you about. First, the story of how she got engaged, all of it, start to finish. And then something she never expected to be talking about here: after two years of quietly pushing through fatigue, headaches and brain fog... the kind of background noise you learn to ignore. She's finally found the root cause! She's already feeling clearer, calmer and less inflamed, and she's sharing everything: the symptoms she'd learned to push past, how she got to the bottom of it, and what's changed since - in case it helps you find your own answers too. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 369: What's Actually Worth It? Biohacks, Trends and the Truth with Nat Kringoudis
In this episode, I'm joined once again by the wonderful Nat Kringoudis — Chinese medicine practitioner, entrepreneur, and host of The Wellness Collective podcast. Together, we separate wellness fact from fiction and have a whole lot of fun unpacking the trends that seem to take over our feeds every few months. From peptides and protein to fasting and forgotten favourites like bone broth and turmeric, we explore which wellness hacks are genuinely worth your time and which ones might be creating more confusion than benefit. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice, this conversation will help you cut through the noise and come back to what really matters. We talk about: The biohacks worth your time versus the ones that are all hype Should we all be trying peptides? Why so much fasting and protein advice doesn't fit women's bodies Revisiting past wellness trends (bone broth, colonics, turmeric and more) Where to find Nat: Website: https://www.natkringoudis.com/ Instagram: @natkringoudis Podcast: The Wellness Collective with Nat Kringoudis 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 368: Stop Forcing Confidence, Your Doubt Has a Purpose with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie makes the case for something most of us have been taught to fight: the part of you that second-guesses, hesitates, and quietly wonders if you've got it wrong. We tend to treat self-doubt as the enemy - the thing standing between us and the unshakeable confidence we're told we should have. But what if that doubting voice is also where your empathy lives? What if the ability to check yourself, to wonder how you're landing on others, to consider that you might not be the most important person in the room, is part of what makes you trustworthy and kind? Georgie explores why relentlessly brainwashing yourself into total certainty isn't actually the goal... and why it can tip us toward self-importance and a loss of perspective. This isn't about letting self-doubt run the show. It's about helping it fire at the right moments, in the right measure, rather than trying to erase it altogether. Because a little doubt, in the right hands, makes us better humans. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 367: How Breathwork Can Heal What Pressure Never Could with Casey May Aubin
In this episode, I'm joined by our wonderful breathwork facilitator, Casey May Aubin. Casey has been guiding the breathwork sessions inside the Calm Woman Collective for well over a year now, and I'm so excited to finally have her on the podcast to share more of her story, wisdom, and approach to healing. Casey opens up about a pivotal moment in her life when everything she thought was certain suddenly changed. What followed was an unexpected journey of curiosity, self-discovery, and ultimately finding the work she was meant to do. We also dive into a unique style of breathwork called Rebirthing Breathwork Mastery (RBM) and how it differs from the more intense breathwork practices many people are familiar with. If you've ever felt called to explore breathwork, or found traditional breathwork styles too overwhelming for your nervous system, this conversation offers a refreshing and empowering perspective. We talk about: How following curiosity, not a plan, can lead you somewhere extraordinary The moment of betrayal that became an unexpected doorway to solo adventure Why intense breathwork can crack you open but not always create lasting change How RBM gives the power of healing back to the participant, not the practitioner Where to find Casey: Instagram: @regulateyourstate Website: https://www.regulateyourstate.com.au/ 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 366: The Subconscious Time Machine: Why Anxiety Makes You Feel Like A Child with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie explores why you can be a capable, composed woman one moment - and feel like a small, frightened child the next. You know your boss probably isn't angry. You know, logically, that you've done nothing wrong. And yet your whole system floods with that old, sinking sense of being in trouble. Georgie unpacks what's actually happening: in those moments, your subconscious mind time travels you back to a younger version of yourself - one who once learned to believe something painful about who she is. It isn't a flaw in your character or a lack of willpower. It's an old emotional memory being switched back on by a present-day cue, and your nervous system responding as though the past is happening now. You'll learn how to recognise when you've slipped into that younger self and why reassurance from your thinking mind alone rarely lands. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 365: The Neuroscience of Forgiveness with Dr. Golsa Gholampour
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Golsa Gholampour - medical doctor, author, and passionate advocate for helping women understand the connection between the brain, body, and emotional wellbeing. Golsa's journey has taken her from growing up in Iran, to building a new life abroad, to experiencing burnout that ultimately led her back to her deeper purpose. Through her work, she explores the neuroscience behind empathy, forgiveness, self-compassion, and resilience, helping us understand why letting go isn't just a spiritual concept - it's something that can profoundly impact our brains, nervous systems, and overall wellbeing. This conversation is a beautiful blend of neuroscience, psychology, and wisdom. We explore what happens in the brain when we practise forgiveness, why empathy can be such a powerful tool for healing, and how learning to live with uncertainty can transform the way we experience anxiety. If you've ever struggled to let go of hurt, found yourself asking "why me?", or wondered how to find peace when life doesn't go to plan, this episode is for you. We talk about: How burnout and hitting a wall can lead you back to your deeper purpose The life-changing question: if time and money were no object, what would you do? What happens in the brain when we practise forgiveness and empathy Growing up in Iran vs Australia — and why forgiveness is so needed Where to find Dr. Golsa Gholampour: Instagram: @drgolsahealth YouTube: DrGolsa

EP 364: How to Rest When You're Sick (Without the Guilt) with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie tells the story of the weekend her intuition told her not to go, and what happened when she went anyway. By the next Monday she was sick, and instead of pushing through, she sat with a harder question: what if her body wasn't failing her, but finally getting her attention? This is an honest look at why rest feels like losing for high-achieving women, how to calm the mind that keeps running even when the body has stopped, and how to reorganise a week around recovery without the guilt spiral. Georgie also shares the herbal teas she reaches for, the foods she leans into, and the small mindset shifts that help her immune system do its most important work. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 363: Sarah Wilson Left Me Shaken, Here's How I Processed Systems Collapse with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie shares what happened after the cameras stopped rolling on her conversation with Sarah Wilson - because that interview didn't leave her peaceful. For days, she sat with feelings of unease, quietly processing what it all meant. This episode is her honest reflection: what shook her, what she had to work through, and where she eventually landed. Georgie unpacks the reframe that brought her the most peace - that what looks like collapse is really a reorganisation, a simplification that unfolds over time. That life as we know it isn't disappearing overnight. That within the change, there are threads of something genuinely good: a return to community, to reliance on each other, to a world where kindness becomes its own currency. If the Sarah Wilson episode (or the topic of Systems Collapse) stirred something in you too, this is the moment to take a long breath out. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 362: Finding Joy In The Systems Collapse? with Sarah Wilson
In this episode, I'm joined once again by the brilliant Sarah Wilson - bestselling author of First, We Make the Beast Beautiful, This One Wild and Precious Life, and now her newest book, I Eat the Stars. This conversation explores something many of us feel quietly underneath the surface: the sense that the world is changing in big, uncertain ways. But rather than spiralling into fear, Sarah offers a surprisingly grounding and even joyful perspective on what happens when we stop resisting reality and start honestly acknowledging what's unfolding around us. We talk about complexity, systems collapse, community, and the unexpected relief that can come from naming what we've been sensing all along. This episode left me thinking for days afterward and strangely, feeling more calm, clear, and connected to what really matters. We talk about: People have been crying "collapse is coming" forever - is this different? Why unplugging from the system and going "off-grid" isn't the answer Could a systems collapse actually be the simplification we've all been asking for? How Sarah has found unexpected joy in these times Where to find Sarah: Website: https://sarahwilson.com/ Instagram: @sarahwilson Book: I Eat the Stars - preorder wherever books are sold Release Dates: Australia & NZ - 26 May 2026 | Global - 16 June 2026 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 361: Listen To This To Feel "Enough" with Georgie Collinson
In this episode, Georgie guides you into the experience of being enough - exactly as you are, right now, without needing to prove, achieve, or be anywhere other than here. This one is for the woman who finds stillness uncomfortable. Who fills every gap, feels the pull to be productive even in rest, and notices a quiet restlessness when she isn't moving toward something. Who is extraordinary at doing - and finds simply being strangely hard to access. This isn't about forcing presence or perfecting stillness. It's a warm, grounded invitation to set down the need to strive - just for now - and let yourself arrive in the moment you're actually in. Find somewhere comfortable, close your eyes, and let Georgie guide you home to yourself. You are already enough. Not when the list is finished. Not when you've figured it out. Right now, as you are. 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?

EP 360: How To Use Mattering To Deepen Connection & Purpose with Jennifer Wallace
In this episode, I'm joined by the fantastic Jennifer Breheny Wallace - award-winning journalist, researcher, and author of Mattering: The Secret to a Life of Deep Connection and Purpose. We explore what it truly means to matter and how so many of us have been taught to seek validation instead of creating real connection. Jennifer shares powerful insights into why loneliness is rising, how hyper-independence is quietly disconnecting us, and what we can do to rebuild a sense of belonging and purpose in our lives. If you've been craving deeper connection, more meaning, or a stronger sense of your place in the world, this conversation will feel grounding, reassuring, and incredibly relevant.

This isn't about productivity strategies or doing more. It's a guided experience designed for the woman who is already doing everything - and simply needs somewhere safe to land, exhale, and find her centre again. Find somewhere comfortable, close your eyes, and let Georgie guide you back to yourself. You don't have to go through all of this alone.

EP 358: The Neuroscience of Anxiety with Alex Nashton
In this episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Alex Nashton - a self-proclaimed neuroscience nerd, mindfulness practitioner, and coach who works deeply with both individuals and couples. She's also the host of the Mind Over Grey Matter podcast, where I had the pleasure of being a guest a couple of years ago. In this conversation, we dive into the science behind anxiety - not in an overwhelming way, but in a way that actually helps you understand what's happening in your brain and, more importantly, how change is truly possible. We explore neuroplasticity, the patterns that keep you stuck, and how to gently rewire your mind without falling into self-judgement. If you've ever felt frustrated that you "know better" but still feel stuck in anxious patterns, this episode will give you both clarity and hope. We talk about: What neuroplasticity means and how to maximise your brain's capacity for change at any age The neuroscience of anxiety: what's actually happening in the brain and why understanding it changes everything The mechanics of how old neural pathways dissolve and new ones take hold The self-judgement trap: why high-functioning women get caught in it and how to break the cycle Where to find Alex: Podcast: Mind Over Grey Matter Instagram: @alex_nashton 💫 Ready for a deeper transformation?
