When the Studio Lights Go Out: Pivoting With Purpose

Ever had one of those "WTF am I doing?" moments in your biz? Yeah, same. This ep is a behind-the-scenes yarn about my pivot from video studio vibes to something way more aligned.

You’ll hear me get real about:

• Outgrowing the vision you thought was it
• Letting go of things that once lit you up
• Grieving the dream (ugh, tears and all)
• Trusting what’s unfolding—even when it feels scary as hell
• What’s next for me and my clients (hint: it’s juicier, slower, deeper)

Let this ep remind you that change doesn’t mean failure—it means evolution.

Hit play, take a breath, and know you're not alone in this.

Right, let’s talk about it.
2025 feels... dense.
Bit messy. Bit unclear.
You might be thinking, “Why am I not further along by now?”
Yeah, we feel it too.

In this episode, we dive into:

• Why the middle bit of your journey matters
• How we’ve all become obsessed with the “arrival”
• Learning to sit in the stillness (not the same as stagnancy, btw)
• Tiny shifts that change everything
• Letting your shadow have a seat at the table
• Rewriting your own idea of success

This isn’t about hustle.
It’s about honouring the pause.
The weird in-between bit that doesn’t make it to your Insta grid.
It’s the year of the Hermit in Tarot, and yeah — it shows.
Feels like the universe is saying, “Sit down, go within, stop performing.”

So if you’re in a season of quiet, or feeling stuck…
Maybe you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

Pour a tea, get cosy, and let this one land.
There’s magic in the mess, promise.

In this one, you’ll be nodding along with Stacey and Ané as they unpack that all-too-familiar inner tug-of-war:
Are you following your intuition... or self-abandoning to make others happy?

This ep is a gentle (and juicy) convo on:

✨ The fine line between people-pleasing and care
🌀 How to tell if you’ve overridden your intuition
💡 The lessons hiding inside regret (ugh, yes, even the baby shower kind)
💫 What intuition actually feels like in the body — and how to tell it apart from fear, cravings, or old programming
🌙 Why the full moon had us all a bit cooked

Plus, Stacey shares a very raw story about her own self-abandonment moment during her baby shower — and the clarity that followed. Spoiler: it involves heart palpitations and a sacred do-over.

You’ll leave this one feeling less alone, more grounded, and maybe with a few “ohhh THAT’S what that feeling meant” moments.
