About
Like most people I have had a sense of wonder not only about the world we live in (our outer world), but also the world we think in (our inner world) for as long as I can remember. As I continue on this journey of life I will share with you my insights and also introduce you to the ordinary people I cross paths with who are achieving the extraordinary. I'm not talking about extraordinary as we traditionally perceive it with regards to success, I'm referring to those women and men who are living on purpose and sharing their unique gifts with the world - whatever those gifts may be.

Healing the Mother Wound Ft Kerri Hummingbird

In this absolute GEM of an episode we dive deep down the rabbit hole of parental relationships and how they can impact our entire experience for the rest of our lives in ways we often don’t realise. Kerri helps us unpack how the interactions we have had with our parents as children can shape who we become as adults; our need to help others from an avoidance of our own wounds, our need for attention or validation as examples. We discuss how these wounds can impact the way we relate in general - whether with partners, colleagues, friends, or anyone we interact with - in such a way that it influences how we listen, how we interpret, how we support, how we separate, how we judge, how we ridicule, and how we show up in the places and spaces we find ourselves in at any given moment. There are many tips for how to overcome, let go of, and develop past these areas of our lives and heal these parental wounds, with an emphasis on developing a deep, foundational relationship with ourselves and the magical power that exists in all of life, and and embracing the power of authenticity as a key to unlocking everything we desire.

It matters not, The Universe does these things Ft: Chris Koch

Imagine planning out your day, fully expecting to be home for dinner only to end up in a jail cell with a stranger. Having found yourself convicted of a crime. My guest on this episode doesn’t have to imagine that situation, as it’s exactly what happened to him. Chris was used to the high life, rubbing shoulders with US presidents, CIA operatives and the wealthy. He earned large sums of money doing what came naturally to him as one of Australia’s top 5 speakers. His success as a professional speaker allowed him to live the high life, fancy restaurants, beautiful homes, first class travel and accommodation wherever he went. But that all changed in June 2010. During this episode I chat with Chris about his experience in prison, he shares incredible insights on how you can build resilience in your own life along with ideas on how to build trusting relationships. We also discuss the “disease of greed” that inflicted him and continues to plague society as people continue risk everything in the search for unimaginable riches. Chris shares how he survived for seven and a half years in several high security prisons by using the same motivational skills and relationship building capabilities that had placed him at the highest level in the professional speaking industry. Chris’s encounters in prison are both inspirational and saddening yet you will notice how he was always able to look on the optimistic side of the challenges that arose, taking the “hit” as a “gift”.  Chris can be reached via email at [email protected] Download the 12 Immutable Laws of Relationship Based selling here https://www.theinternationalsalesinstitute.com/about-us/code-of-conduct/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ellis-in-wunderland/message

I’m Taking my life back! Ft. Anita Bentata

   Despite concern and greater awareness about domestic violence, it’s still happening, and with only 16% of women who experience violence contacting an agency such as a shelter, crisis centre or hotline, counsellor or women’s centre for help, we may never really know the how wide spread the issue is. In this extraordinary episode I speak with Anita Bentata, an escapee of domestic violence. Anita’s story has been documented in her book “The Wolf in a Suit”.  During this episode Anita shares incredible insights from the children’s fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood” and it’s easy to see the parallels of the fairy tale with her own journey, Anita is Little Red Riding Hood, standing at the edge of the woods, being caught by The Wolf (only he’s wearing a suit), and finally escaping with her two little girls.  This episode is one of hope, courage and full of insights as Anita shares how we can all access far more than we know, and how when faced with mixed messages from a partner we end up confused, leading to inaction, possibly the reason why some women stay much longer than they should. Anita has turned her experiences into a mission to help women, she went on to study Human Behavior and became a psychotherapist and counsellor. Anita now helps women to develop their emotional muscle to speak about the unknown and the uncomfortable, she is well versed in all the unspoken myths about love, stress and relationships.  Reach out to Anita by: Email: [email protected] Facebook: Activating Artemis and The Wolf in a Suit Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter “Anita Bentata” Access Anita’s free downloads here: http://www.anitabentata.com/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ellis-in-wunderland/message

You cannot be what you cannot see Ft. Tenille Gilbert

   Tenille is Co-Founder and Chief Operations Officer at Society Melbourne, the umbrella brand for numerous social enterprises working to create sustainable pathways out of homelessness for young people in Australia.  During our chat you will come to see that Tenille is a passionate advocate for young people, believing in the ability to unleash their potential. I was thrilled to speak with Tenille so we could dismiss the idea that millennials are a ‘snowflake’ generation.  This is an inspiring chat on so many levels! Tune in as Tenille shares her insights on the unique world of social enterprise, the sacrifices the younger generations are willing to make and their belief that if there is a problem then “we CAN do something about it”. Tenille is a great example of how the younger generations don’t wait for the system to create change, they make an impact and live on purpose each day, and we can learn so much from them, if only we stopped to take notice of the wave of positive change they are creating each day in small ways. Thank you Tenille!
