There can be so much pressure to have your life figured out by the time you're 30. To choose the right career, keep climbing the ladder and never look back. But what happens when the life you've worked so hard to build no longer feels aligned?
In today's episode, I'm joined by entrepreneur, bestselling author and speaker Samantha Wills. After building one of Australia's most successful jewellery brands into a global business, Samantha made the courageous decision to walk away and redefine what success meant to her.
Together, we explore burnout, identity, the fear of starting over, and why changing your mind isn't a sign of failure, but often a sign of growth. We talk about knowing when you've outgrown a chapter, navigating career pivots, and giving yourself permission to choose a path that feels more aligned.
Whether you're questioning your career, feeling stuck, or simply wondering if there's something more, I hope this conversation reminds you that it's never too late to begin again.
In this episode, we discuss:
Burnout and the hidden cost of success
Knowing when it's time for a new chapter
Career pivots and starting over
Redefining success on your own terms
Why it's never too late to change your mind

In today’s episode, I'm answering your pregnancy and motherhood questions.
We chat about navigating pregnancy while grieving the loss of my mum, the resources that have helped me prepare for birth, my thoughts on breastfeeding, how my workouts and diet have changed during pregnancy, and how I've been protecting my mental health while my body changes.
I also share why I haven't weighed myself throughout pregnancy, what's helped me maintain a positive relationship with my body, and how I'm planning to prioritise movement once the baby arrives.
Whether you're pregnant, hoping to become a mum one day, or simply curious about this chapter of my life, I hope this conversation reminds you that there is no perfect way to do motherhood. Every journey looks different, and we're all learning as we go.
