At the dawn of the social media era, Belle Gibson became a pioneering wellness influencer - telling the world how she beat cancer with an alternative diet. Her bestselling cookbook and online app provided her success, respect, and a connection to the cancer-battling influencer she admired the most. But a curious journalist with a sick wife began asking questions that even those closest to Belle began to wonder. Was the online star faking her cancer and fooling the world? Kaitlyn Dever stars in the Netflix hit series Apple Cider Vinegar . Inspired by true events, the dramatized story follows Belle’s journey from self-styled wellness thought leader to disgraced con artist. It also explores themes of hope and acceptance - and how far we’ll go to maintain it. In this episode of You Can't Make This Up, host Rebecca Lavoie interviews executive producer Samantha Strauss. SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched Apple Cider Vinegar yet, make sure to add it to your watch-list before listening on. Listen to more from Netflix Podcasts .…

Story telling is a powerful way to reduce stigma and raise awareness around mental health. Naomi Fryers had a breakdown and was removed from her home by police and taken to a mental health ward. In her words, she hit rock bottom and over time embraced her story, growing through adversity to tell her own story with an empowering ending. Naomi Fryers is a writer, mental health survivor and advocate and TEDX Speaker. Today on mental health awareness day I am chuffed to share this very real chat about what she has learnt about growth and using her voice to advocate for others, particularly women in the system.

Her hardest times have given her strength, resilience and compassion which we can all read about in her book ‘A Very Long Way’. As you continue your growth, please check out her book is about her experience living and thriving with a mental illness. Please note that this episode touches on mental health challenges and trauma as well as suicide. It is a very real and solution orientated conversation however elements could be triggering for those who have experienced mental health challenges. Please access support if you are experiencing challenges. On World Mental Health Day (October 10, 2021) writer, Naomi Fryers will release her debut novel, A Very Long Way. A hopeful non-fiction narrative that provides a rare but relatable insight into the lived experience of an ordinary Australian with significant mental health struggles. Almost forty-five percent of our population will experience some form of mental illness in their lifetime and research shows that there is a deficiency in the quality of care provided to them. A Very Long Way explores these inequalities and disparities to reveal Naomi's tenacious journey towards recovery, during which she learned many key life lessons. One of the main ones being, the importance of embracing natural self-expression as a means of rediscovering an innate sense of self. A Very Long Way uses her real-life example of overcoming, as a basis of proof that surviving can translate into future thriving, for those determined to commit to healing. Her thoughtful writings have graced the pages of many celebrated publications including The Huffington Post and Elephant Journal. Naomi has also worked in a professional capacity in both not for profit and government organisations, advocating for progressive and systemic changes to the mental health sector. Fifty percent of sales generated from A Very Long Way will go directly towards Black Dog Institute.

What would you pay not to do? That is what Eliza Ludwig (Money Coach) and I chat about today. Her ideas cross the transactional tasks stuff and the transformational changes we can make if we challenge why we do what we do. For example healthy nutrition is important to you but you are grabbing takeout food a few times a week and wishing you could afford a house cleaner. A clear sign it is time to check in with your values to decide what you could pay not to do in an aligned way. If you find yourself thinking “I can’t afford it”, “I don’t have time” or “I am not good with numbers” and you are ready for increased joy in your life then this episode is for you. Some key points: You can pay to outsource almost anything Insourcing joy is all up to you Your values and your skill levels can guide decisions Money is often the perceived barrier Time freedom is often the reward Eliza Ludwig - LinkedIN: www.linkedin.com/in/elizaludwig/ The Flow Society: www.theflowsociety.com.au Related Episodes: 71: Ditch the budget & grow your money mindset - Heidi Rumohr https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/71-ditch-the-budget-grow-your-money-mindset-heidi-rumohr/id1517210258?i=1000527182770 ********************************************************************* We hope you enjoyed the episode Visit the Go to Grow Website here: www.gotogrow.com.au Send us an email with any thoughts, questions or ideas to stewart@gotogrow.com.au or melissa@gotogrow.com.au Thanks so much for choosing growth and being part of the tribe.

Episode Notes 10 years ago if someone said to me that they were off to see their Energy Healer, I would have probably judged them as a bit strange out of lack of awareness and experience. Energy? Healing? I was deeply into acupuncture and Chinese Medicine and personal development but energy healing sounded a step too far. Now I am now that person. My energy healer is in my growth collective. Enjoy this soulful, reflective and growthful chat I had with Energy Healer, secret weapon and fellow SheEO activator, Jessica Keats. We all have healing to do when it is safe and the time is right. This chat will nourish and recharge your spiritual energy: Energy is how you feel and react Energy promotes or depletes wellbeing Tune in to when you need recovery afterwards Embracing impermanence helps acclimatize to new directions We are all experiencing 'energetic' and 'in real life' changes now Self-sacrifice becomes a lifestyle Protect energy & empower others by holding boundaries https://www.jessicakeats.com/flow https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessicakeats/ We hope you enjoyed the episode Visit the Go to Grow Website here: www.gotogrow.com.au Send us an email with any thoughts, questions or ideas to stewart@gotogrow.com.au or melissa@gotogrow.com.au Thanks so much for choosing growth and being part of the tribe.

Episode Notes Today we chat about productivity for the now. Key takeaways include: Shame is your cue to shift something up - start with your energy Getting clear on what is most important is half the battle - know your priorities Managing yourself & health must be high in the priority mix Your brain is bias to the negative so consciously move your attention to what have done Avoid the "all or nothing" monster instead aiming for 'the messy middle' aiming for progress not perfection Progress is taking one next step not eating the whole elephant There is magic in consistent daily small action and it adds up Set aside 15 minutes in the morning before you dive into your day to complete something important and get a positive halo over your day Yes you can 'find' 15 minutes! 'Out' yourself on productivity shame and tell someone else to reduce the grip of your story “The story I am telling myself right now is….” You've got this - stay curious and compassionate.

Episode Notes: What is not working for you right now? Getting unstuck starts with clarifying what is not working in your life and how that is showing up. Tired? Overwhelmed? Busy? Always busy. Rather than pushing on, we challenge you to acknowledge it and build your 'courage muscle' by gaining support to figure out what you do want. Today we chat with coach Jo Stone. Jo is the founder of Blissful Breadwinner. Like me, she is passionate about supporting ambitious women create balance between career and family, without stepping back or burning out. Jo shares the big brave decisions and changes she has made to prioritise herself and her personal development. She chose health, freedom and aliveness instead of a big house and the security of a corporate leadership role. We challenge you to take your development into your own hands and question the conditioning that other's needs are more important than yours. Your growth starts with you but doesn't end with you. Become a growth seeker rather than crawling out of a crisis. Ask for help and receive it.
