Your Friend in the Head

You wrote the goals. You bought the nice journal. You said “this time will be different”... and here you are, starting again on Monday. Again. Let’s be real. You’re not unlucky. You’re undecided. In this episode I’m calling out the back doors you keep leaving open, why “whatever it takes” can’t mean “until it gets hard”, and the morning I looked in the mirror, broke, and called myself a f*cking lo...

Three words. Two single girls. One house that should’ve come with a warning label. When I met Emma Salmon I was a shell of a human. Belittled, broken, convinced I was nothing. Within a month I’d moved into her pink Barbie dream house with my dog. Six months later I was unrecognisable. What happened in between? Some of it I can tell you. Most of it I can’t... yet. This woman has lived about five li...

You were never picked first, you’re scared to even want things, and you think manifesting is for women sitting on their arse waiting for magic. Same, girl. In this episode I’m showing you how I went from the girl nothing ever happened for to the woman who looks at anything she wants and says “yeah, that can be mine”... and the practical, no-fluff steps that got me there. In this episode: Why wanti...

How many times have you promised yourself that this time would be different... only to lose motivation, fall off the plan, and find yourself starting over again? In this episode, I break down why you keep struggling to follow through on your goals, even when you know exactly what you need to do. The real issue is that you keep leaving your goals open for negotiation. You go all in when you feel mo...

What do you do when everything goes wrong at once? Your plans fall apart, unexpected problems keep appearing, and you feel yourself getting overwhelmed, frustrated, and ready to completely lose it. In this episode, I share how I handled one of the most chaotic days of my life... from my Instagram account being disabled to missed trains, disrupted flights, travel delays, and problem after problem p...

You have tried the plans. You have bought the programs. You have started more Mondays than you can count. 🤍 And you are still here. In the same place. Wondering if you are just one of those women that it never works for. You are not. But something IS getting in the way. And it is not what you think. Because the women I watch finally have their breakthrough - the ones with the unrecognisable trans...

Why do I know something needs to change but I cannot make myself do anything about it. That is the question I get asked more than almost anything else. And it is the question I lived inside for longer than I want to admit. Because staying is comfortable. Staying is known. And the fear of making the wrong decision feels so much bigger than the reality of staying in the wrong situation. But here is...

If you wouldn't trade places with their body, their bank account, or their life, then why the f**k are you listening to them? ✨ This is about active ownership and realizing that nobody is going to save you. You have to become the creator, author, and CEO of your own existence. Henny exposes the "frenemies" and the people-pleasing habits that are keeping you on the sidelines, and she challenges yo...

I broke the streak. And before I say anything else I want to be completely honest with you about why - because this conversation is not really about a podcast schedule. It is about something every high achieving woman needs to hear right now. I was doing too much. Not in the humble brag way. In the running on empty, giving everything to everything and everyone and having nothing left for myself wa...

I had been putting it off for months. Telling myself it needed more planning. More preparation. Better timing. All of the things we tell ourselves when the real answer is that we are just scared. And today I stopped waiting and did it anyway. In this episode I am getting into something that every single woman needs to hear if she has been sitting on the sidelines of her own life waiting to feel re...

Can I be honest with you for a second? I have had days where I have felt completely invisible. Flat. Disconnected from the woman I am trying to become. And the temptation to just crawl through the day in the same three comfort pieces with my hair in a disaster bun and zero effort is very real. But here is what I have learned. The days I do that are always the days I feel the worst. And the days I...

She is exhausted. Not from doing too much. From giving too much to people who were never going to give it back. Overexplaining. Over-extending. Saying yes when everything in her is screaming no. Bending herself into shapes she does not recognise anymore just to keep the peace and be liked by people whose opinion should not even matter. And somewhere in all of that giving she completely lost hersel...

I woke up at 3am and I felt absolutely broken. Missed the boxing class. Went back to sleep. And then spent the day doing what I could instead of catastrophising about what I could not. And that is exactly what this episode is about. Because one of the most damaging things I see happen to women who are working towards their body goals is not the missed workout. It is the shame spiral that follows i...

You have a wardrobe full of clothes and nothing to wear. You get dressed every morning feeling like something is off but you cannot quite put your finger on it. You save the good stuff for special occasions that never seem to come. And you wear the same three comfortable things on rotation wondering why you never quite feel like yourself. That ends today. In this episode I am walking you through e...

You wake up with a list that is already too long. By 10am you are overwhelmed. By midday you are in analysis paralysis. By evening you are on the couch wondering how another entire day just disappeared. Sound familiar? In this episode I am getting into the exact protocols I use to stay compliant, hit my non-negotiables and keep moving the needle forward even when I am scaling a company, managing h...

This is the episode for the woman who is exhausted. Not the kind of exhausted that a good night's sleep fixes. The kind that comes from carrying the weight of a life that is not going the way she wants it to while feeling completely powerless to change it. This is not a gentle episode. This is the hard conversation. The one where I tell you that everything in your life right now - the body you hat...

Seven days of waking up feeling tragic. Looking in the mirror wondering who the hell that person is. Going through the motions of the day feeling flat, uninspired and completely disconnected from the woman you are trying to become. Sound familiar? In this episode I am giving you five things - simple, non-negotiable, no-excuses things - that if you did them for seven days straight would completely...

Confidence is not something you either have or you do not. It is something that was buried. By a comment. A look. A moment where you learned that belonging required making yourself smaller. And in this episode I am giving you the full blueprint to dig it back out. This is the masterclass I run inside my Feel Good Naked app - and I am bringing it here because every woman deserves access to this. No...

She messaged me on her only day off. Resistance through the roof. Mad anxiety about going to the gym. Asking if she could just do it at home instead. So I asked her one question - what are you actually afraid of? And that is where it got really interesting. Because what started as a conversation about gym equipment and motivation turned into something so much deeper. Something that every woman who...

You know that feeling when you walk away from a conversation and wish you had said something? You had the thought. You knew exactly what you wanted to say. And you swallowed it anyway because it felt safer to keep the peace. That moment - that tiny quiet surrender - is costing you more than you realise. In this episode I am getting into the conversation that so many women need but nobody wants to...

It must be breakup season... Because the DMs have been flooding in. The check-ins have been heavy. And I know that right now there are women listening to this who are sitting in an apartment that feels too quiet, wondering how something that was their whole world can just... stop. I have been that woman. And I want to talk to her today. Not with the generic get back out there energy. Not with the...

I got the phone call at home. And at nine o'clock that same morning I had to walk into a room full of people and perform like nothing had happened. I do not share this story often. But today I am sharing it because I think it is the most important conversation I have had on this podcast about what mental grit actually is - and where it actually comes from... Because it does not come from motivatio...

Nothing catastrophic happened. No breakdown. No rock bottom. Just a slow creeping feeling that the thing she built, the thing she fought for, the thing she was so proud of... stopped feeling like hers. That is the season Henny is talking about today. And it is one of the most common and least talked about experiences for women who are actually doing the work and building the life. Because burnout...

You are trying. You are really trying. And somehow you keep ending up in the same place. Same patterns. Same self-sabotage. Same frustration. Same conversation with yourself at 11pm wondering what the hell is wrong with you. Nothing is wrong with you. But something is running the show underneath all of that trying. And until you understand what it is, nothing is going to change no matter how good...

Monday to Friday she is locked in. Perfect week. Every macro hit. Every session done. And then the weekend arrives and it all falls apart. Sound familiar? This is the cycle most women cannot break - not because they are weak or lack willpower - but because they are walking into social situations with zero plan and wondering why emotion wins every single time. In this episode Henny calls it out com...
