  Ep 53 | When Life Forces You To Stop: Rebuilding After A Major Setback

  Jul 21, 202623 minS3

  The hardest part wasn't recovering. It was figuring out who she was on the other side. If you've been following Moonbeam Monday for a while, you'll know a little of Mum's story. You'll know she was diagnosed with stage three ovarian cancer five and a half years ago. What you probably don't know is that she's spent the last few years quietly writing a book about what came after. I've had the privilege of reading it, and I can tell you it's not what you'd expect. This isn't a cancer memoir. It's a book about what happens when life forces you to stop, and what it actually takes to rebuild. In this conversation, we talk about why she wrote it, who it's really for, and what she hopes people take away. What we get into: 00:01 Why the medical system prepares you for treatment but not for what comes after 02:27 The question that changes everything 05:44 Why this isn't just a cancer story, and the many life events that bring us to the same place 07:58 Why healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about coming home to yourself 09:39 Internal conflict: the exhaustion of living a life that no longer fits 11:42 Fear at two in the morning, and the practical tool that helped Yvonne stay present 13:41 Taking back control of your mind instead of letting fear drive your decisions 15:55 Hope, the harmony blueprint, and what Yvonne wants readers to carry with them 19:28 Why harmony beats balance, and what it actually means to live in alignment The line that stayed with me: "Many people are exhausted not because they're doing too much, but because they're living a life that no longer fits who they've become." If any part of today's conversation has sparked something, this is your sign to stop and ask yourself that question. Who are you now? And is the life you're living still the one that fits?

  Ep 52 | What Losing Your Voice Will Teach You About The Power Of Words with Jacqueline Brooker

  Jul 7, 20261h 7mS3

  Your words aren't just how you communicate. They're how you survive. I've known Jacqueline Brooker for a couple of years now, and I can tell you this: every single time I'm in a room with her, I leave knowing something new about myself. That's rare. And it's exactly why I wanted to have this conversation on The Brain Changers. Jacqueline is a Certified Speaking Professional and founder of Business of Speaking. She's spent more than 15 years helping experts, leaders, and aspiring speakers turn their knowledge into authority, opportunity, and income. But what drew me to sit down with her today wasn't her credentials. It was something she said recently: that she's obsessed with the power of words. What unfolded was one of those conversations I didn't want to end. What we get into: 00:00 Why words used well mean you're one hundred percent remembered 06:09 The research that doesn't add up, and why Jacq wants it rerun 11:57 A twelve year old girl, a beach house, and a notebook full of words 17:59 The motivational speaker who changed everything, without even knowing it 24:00 What Jacqueline learned when her voice was taken from her, publicly and legally 30:05 How she rebuilt, one small pocket of trust at a time 34:45 What someone's language tells you about what's really going on underneath 37:28 Why you don't need confidence. You need evidence. 41:02 Why reading rewires your brain in a way audiobooks simply don't 44:08 Ditch the affirmations. Here's what to do instead. 48:49 How to catch your language in real time, and why it takes practice, not genius 53:07 Language is a skill. Anyone can learn it. Anyone can lose it. 57:31 The fast five, including the thought that changed Jacqueline's life The line that stayed with me: "Everything you want is not on the other side of fear. Everything you want is on the other side of words." She made that up on the spot. I was left speechless – ironic, yes. If you've ever felt like you had something important to say but couldn't find the words, or you've been silenced and wondered if you'd ever find your way back, listen up!

  Ep 51 | The Alignment Gap - Why You Can't Lose Weight

  Jun 23, 202634 minS3

  It's not about the food. Yvonne and I have had this conversation in different forms for years, with clients, with each other, and in our own heads. Why does someone who genuinely wants to change keep not changing? This episode is our attempt to answer that properly. We use the example of a woman called Jill. You might recognise her. She's doing everything she's been told to do and still not getting results, and the reason why has nothing to do with willpower or discipline. What we get into: 00:00 Why trying harder rarely works when the real issue is deeper than behaviour 02:05 The reality behind the facade 04:35 Understanding the cycle of frustration 06:57 The unspoken rules and priorities 10:17 The neurological levels of change, and which level most people never look at 14:28 How your values and beliefs can quietly cancel out your best efforts 16:28 The role of boundaries, and why creating space is sometimes the whole work 20:31 Creating alignment for change 22:41 Purpose as the missing piece: what you're really doing this for 26:10 The role of coaching in self-discovery The line that stayed with me: "When your actions align with your values, change stops being a fight." If you've ever felt like you're working against yourself, this one will make a lot of things click. Links and resources Join the free 5-Day 'Stop The Hijack' Challenge.

  Ep 50 | When Life Doesn't Go To Plan: What Pressure, Reinvention and Trading Reveal About Who You Really Are - with Louise Bedford

  Jun 9, 202643 minS3

  This is our 50th episode of The Brain Changers, and we couldn't think of a better guest to mark the occasion. Louise Bedford is one of Australia's most respected voices in trading psychology and behavioural finance. She's a trader, mentor, keynote speaker and bestselling author of six books, and for more than three decades she's helped thousands of people understand not only how markets work, but how they themselves work under pressure. But this episode goes well beyond trading. Because Louise's work has always sat at the intersection of identity, reinvention, and human behaviour. And in this conversation, that's exactly where we go. We talk about the small decisions that quietly redirect entire lives. About the moments when life ignores your plan. About what it means to outgrow a version of yourself, and why that often feels more like grief than growth. Louise shares what decades of working with people in high-pressure environments has taught her about how we really behave when the stakes are high. And she offers something rare - the kind of clarity that only comes from someone who has genuinely lived through uncertainty and come out the other side with something to say. This is also a personal episode for us. Louise is partly responsible for the direction Yvonne and I have taken in our lives, and in this conversation, you'll hear why. In this episode you'll hear: • Why life changes in whispers, not always in explosions, and why we rarely recognise the turning points in real time • Why pressure doesn't create character… it reveals it • What it actually means to outgrow a version of yourself, and why it can feel like grief • The patterns people fall back on when things get hard, and what separates those who adapt from those who stay stuck • Why most people don't have a strategy problem, they have a pattern problem • The stories people tell themselves about money, capability and success, and why those stories show up everywhere, not just in trading • Why asking for help is a sign of intelligence, not weakness • Why clarity is often the reward for movement, not the prerequisite for it About Louise Bedford Louise Bedford is a trader, mentor, keynote speaker and bestselling author of six books on trading psychology and behavioural finance. She is the founder of the Trading Game Mentor Program and host of the Talking Trading podcast. Louise holds degrees in Psychology and Business and has spent more than 30 years helping people understand themselves and the markets.

  Episode #49

  Ep 49 | Maybe this is as good as it gets - the belief keeping you stuck

  May 26, 20261h 12mS3

  Have you ever caught yourself thinking maybe this is just as good as it gets, and then immediately justified it with something going on in the world? In this rich, go-deep conversation, Rebekah King sits down with Adelaide's leading NLP coach and trainer Toni Everard to explore why so many capable, intelligent people stay stuck in jobs, relationships, and lives they've quietly outgrown. Toni unpacks the hidden role of emotional neglect in childhood (even in "good" childhoods), why our nervous system fights change even when we consciously want it, and how the real barrier to having what we want is rarely external. If you've done the therapy, the coaching, the self-development work, and there's still something a little sticky you can't quite shift, this episode is for you. About Toni Everard Toni Everard is one of Adelaide's most respected NLP coaches and trainers, with over a decade in her own business and 20 years of prior experience in accounting and finance. Known for getting quickly beneath the surface and helping clients make changes that stick — personally and professionally — Toni works with coaches, practitioners, leaders in blue-collar industries, business owners, and corporate teams. She has a particular gift for helping people identify the unresolved emotional patterns quietly running the show in their business and their life. Her debut book, The Turning Point , is out now (order online at tonieverard.com/the-turning-point ) Key Takeaways "Maybe this is as good as it gets" is a belief, not a fact. Emotional neglect doesn't always look like trauma. We abandon ourselves to protect others. Your identity will die to be right. It's not about blaming your parents. Change happens in layers.
