So You Got Fd Up - The Book

28/05/2026

Essential Energy HR and Wellbeing team meeting last night. Around 75 staff from across the state where I got to speak about the realities of resilience.

Hint: it isn’t a personality trait, nor is it being bulletproof.

Thanks for having me — I had an absolute blast. The speaker fee was donated to CareFlight, an organisation very close to my heart.

A few of the audiobook bloopers from today, one of the sincere moments with an awesome human and some photos from the day.

Progress ain’t tidy, especially when my concentration span is outgunned by some interested souls looking through the window. Bless them!

One chapter with a bit of a sweary finale. Still resonates today.

Big day. Big energy.

Audiobook recording officially underway
Author talk locked in - I met the rooster from the poster!
Same venue. Same story. New formats.

From page → mic → stage.

This one’s been a while coming.

Turns out reading your own story out loud is… an experience. Sorry to those in the first chapter. I probably cursed your name somewhere in the million takes.

248%!
Ali Flynn from her Challenges That Change Us podcast messaged me yesterday — turns out our first episode went... ok.

It averaged 248% more listens than her usual. Who'd have thought! I suspect it's cheers to my dear mum for punishing the refresh button like a maniac.

When a conversation subtly shifts into a therapy session with a microphone, magic can happen.

Most of you basically heard me close the chapter on some very ordinary stuff, and the moment we wrapped the second episode I felt a weight lift that hasn’t returned.

Thanks to everyone who listened, reached out, and made that 248% feel like 248% support. In the words of the great Kostya Tszyu - "I love ya's all. Every one of singles yous"

Here's the link to the first episode if you're not sure what I'm on about. We followed it up with Ep 152.
