In this powerful solo episode, Leila Lutz delves deep into the importance of understanding your personal "food story" - the beliefs, patterns, and experiences that have shaped your relationship with food. Drawing from her own transformative journey, Leila shares how her lifelong struggle with under-eating and high-achieving behaviour stemmed from a complex web of family dynamics, trauma, and the need to create safety and security.Leila candidly explores how her background as the eldest daughter in a chaotic, financially-strained household influenced her tendency to push food aside in pursuit of constant achievement. She unpacks the addictive nature of adrenaline and cortisol, and how this "busy" mindset kept her from truly nourishing herself.With raw vulnerability, Leila also reveals the generational trauma and beliefs around food that were passed down from her mother's own difficult upbringing. This powerful insight underscores Leila's unique approach to coaching, which emphasizes the critical role of self-parenting and taking responsibility for one's own healing.Throughout the episode, Leila offers listeners a glimpse into her personal process of uncovering and addressing these deep-seated patterns, highlighting the importance of consistent self-care, mindful eating, and creating a life of balance and connection. Her story serves as a powerful testament to the transformative power of understanding your food story and the courage to rewrite it.In this episode:Understanding Your Food Story The Impact of Under-Eating The Role of Stress and AdrenalineThe Journey to Balanced EatingAddressing Addiction and Overachievement The Influence of Family Beliefs The Importance of Self-Parenting The Role of Coaching and Therapy The Emotional Impact of Food Encouragement for Healing.The book mentioned is “In the Realms of Hungry Ghosts” by Dr Gabor Mate and is a must read.Sign up for Leila's FREE Insights Course at www.thebodyneverlies.com.auConnect with Leila:WebsiteInstagram @leilalutzMentioned in this episode:Free InsightsUncover the root cause of your unexplained symptoms, with a scientifically proven, self assessment tool. https://thebodyneverlies.com.au/insights-courseFree Insights Jan25

Is the Building Industry Broken? Well, it's not entirely shattered, but there are definitely some big considerable cracks that need to be repaired. Today's guest, Scott Burchell from Comb Construction, breaks down the big issues (like rising project costs, evolving regulations, and a labour shortage) that are making it difficult to remain profitable. He shared stories from both residential and multi-residential sectors, putting a spotlight on how challenging it can be for developers to justify starting new projects when the numbers don't stack up.One of the biggest headaches? Town planning issues and rising costs have thrown a spanner in the works. Developers are scratching their heads, wondering if their returns would be better off sitting in a savings account, especially with skyrocketing post-COVID prices. But we can't just point the finger at developers. They need to make money, and let's face it, we need places to live. It's a two-way street, really.Residential or otherwise, solutions to our housing hiccups won't be found by building further out into the suburbs alone. Models like Melbourne's Nightingale are fantastic—the concept solves many problems, but it remains a niche solution. We can't ignore how councils seem to hold back innovative designs, yet still hand out awards when these projects finally come to life.Despite various efforts to streamline processes, it often feels like dealing with councils and developers requires an unreasonable amount of 'common sense'. Decisions get stuck in a loop, cities miss out on optimal layouts, and before you know it, common sense is out the window. Still, sometimes when the dust settles after these projects, people realise things aren't as bad as they feared.Working in construction or development can feel like walking a tightrope. There's a constant risk of tipping over budget or time, thanks to complex regulations and contracts that seem to put builders in a bind more than anyone else. Scott shared some hard truths from his years in the industry, like seeing firms go bust from one bad project to another.Something we've noticed is a need for better relationships between architects, builders, and developers. We chatted about how the 'us vs. them' mentality is holding us all back, when what we truly need is collaboration and understanding on both sides. A successful project should have the client living in a wonderful home, the architect's vision beautifully realised, and yes—the builder making money, too!While it might seem idealistic to think we can solve all these problems overnight, there's definitely hope if we start working together more transparently. Little adjustments can make a big difference, like if we could tweak some contract agreements to share the risk more fairly or make payment structures more manageable for builders.The future may be uncertain, but here's hoping the construction industry finds its balance. Let's all aim to build better together, one brick at a time.LINKS:Connect with Scott BurchellInstagram: www.instagram.com/combconstruction/Website: www.combconstruction.com.auConnect with us on Instagram: @themindfulbuilderpodConnect with Hamish:Instagram: @sanctumhomesWebsite:

There is nothing more I love talking about than content and AI... Because I find so much sh*t content online at the moment, adding to the noise that people are putting out to just be in peoples feeds.But is it worth just adding to the noise with content that isn't engaging, thought provoking or even interesting?I am joined by my fav content unicorn, Charlotte Lane.We're diving into AI's capabilities in automating tasks like research and customer profiling, while also addressing its limitations in replicating human creativity and emotional storytelling. Our convo covers the potential risks, ethical concerns, and how to thoughtfully integrate AI into business strategies. Charlotte emphasises the importance of understanding AI's impact on business branding and maintaining authenticity.Charlotte started The Copy Unicorn (originally named Copy Fox Content) back in 2020 - she quickly realised that her human focused approach aligned with years of writing experience quickly led to marketing magic for her clients. And it was these clients that bestowed the name of the The Copy Unicorn upon her.Since 2020 she has been helping business owners find the human stories behind their success. The stories that we often discount as “everyday life”, are usually the ones that inspire and connect us the most to our clients. Which is why Charlotte's skill set lies specifically in uncovering those stories and tying them back to your services, or everyday actions that your clients can take to get them closer towards their success.Because magical marketing isn't about buzz words, the biggest ad-spend or spending hours learning 20-second dance routines, magical marketing happens when connection allows you to stand out not as the number 1 choice, but the only choice.Email: charlotte@thecopyunicorn.com.auConnect on LinkedIn with Charlotte LaneDOWNLOAD MY CONTENT PLANNER - https://becchappell.com.au/content-planner/Instagram @bec_chappellLinkedIn – Bec Chappell If you're ready to work together, I'm ready to work with you and your team.How to work with me:1.

Ever walked into a home and instantly felt as if everything just clicked into place?Chances are you have an interior designer to thank! This week we sat down with Erin Fairmaid, to talk about the real magic behind well-designed spaces and why interior designers are invaluable.Because the industry isn't regulated, the term “interior designer” can be thrown around by people without knowledge and experience. This dilutes the profession's value and leads to the myth that interior designers just pick paint colours and buy furniture. Erin makes it clear that this is just scratching the surface. Her work involves technical skills, spatial planning, and understanding clients' lifestyles down to the tiniest details – pets, family routines, you name it. She also works closely with architects and builders to design a space that isn't just beautiful but highly functional.Erin points out that it's important to get your interior designer involved early in the pre-construction process. Simple tweaks to a floor plan can significantly improve the functionality of a home, and the sooner you make them the less impact they'll have on the timeline and budget.During our conversation, Erin tackles some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding Interior Designers:1. Interior designers are only for wealthy people: Erin argues that her work isn't a luxury, but a necessity. A well-thought-out design can streamline a build, saving money and resources.2. Anyone can be an interior designer: While technically true due to the unregulated nature of the industry, great designers have a mix of innate talent and continuous learning. Erin urges homeowners to look for a designer with demonstrated experience.3. Interior designers just follow trends: Some might, but not Erin. When a client asks for something that's trending, she challenges this by asking clients about their real preferences—leading to more personalised and timeless designs. Interior Designers bring so much value to building projects, but are they appreciated for it? Well, it's a mixed bag. The lack of regulation in the industry leads to confusion and undervaluation of skilled professionals like Erin. On the other hand, anyone who's seen her work knows it's value. Whether it's ensuring functional layouts or sourcing materials that fit the budget without compromising on style, Erin's contributions are irreplicable.So, if you're planning a home renovation or building anew, don't underestimate the role of a talented interior designer.

It's a type of psychological therapy that activates the brain's natural healing capacity to overcome painful life experiences that keep impacting us.The EMDR Process.EMDR therapy can be broken down into eight phases, starting from building a strong therapeutic relationship to preparing the person for the processing of traumatic or negative memories and experiences. EMDR Therapy aims to help individuals gain control over distressing experiences, making them less vivid, reducing attached emotions, and changing the way they think about the events.EMDR therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. The number of sessions and techniques used varies from person to person based on their needs and the complexity of their experiences. It's about finding the best fit for each individual.Resource BuildingCaroline highlights the importance of resource building. This phase involves equipping the person with coping skills and confidence both during and outside of EMDR sessions. These resources help them manage any emotional processing that continues after therapy.Key Takeaways:EMDR therapy activates the brain's natural healing to overcome painful experiences.The therapy is personalised, with no fixed number of sessions.Don't be afraid to ask questions and advocate for yourself during therapy sessions.Resource building is essential to support clients in their healing journey.EMDR Therapy can benefit individuals dealing with trauma, depression, anxiety, and more.Further reading or resourcesEMDRAA website: www.emdraa.orgMindful Living website: www.mindfulliving.com.auFree resources for the public: www.mindfulliving.com.au/resources/The book discussed: www.everymemorydeservesrespect.com/Connect with Caroline Caroline Burrows is an Accredited EMDR Trainer and Consultant with a background in Clinical Social Work and Psychotherapy.
