EP185: I Fired the Parts of Me That No Longer Belonged
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
This episode is a raw, unfiltered riff recorded in the moment whilst i was exercising where something real landed and needed to be said. This episode came from a realisation I couldn’t ignore anymore: You can’t build what’s next while letting outdated parts of you keep making decisions. At the end of last year, I realised my identity had shifted but parts of me were still operating from old goals, old fears, old industry conditioning, and old versions of success. And it was creating friction I couldn’t think my way out of. So I did something different. I fired the internal “team...

EP185: Mindshit speaks the loudest right on the edge of a breakthrough
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
Mind shit gets loud right before a breakthrough. Really loud. Not because something’s wrong. But because something big is about to shift. This Wonder Walk is me catching that moment as it’s happening..... Why fear, doubt, and irritation suddenly spike when you’re close to something next-level How your system will test you at your weakest points (hello tech issues 👋) The difference between reacting and responding when things wobble Why “this is a sign I should stop” is usually just fear doing its job How to keep moving without piling more pressure on yourself The...

EP183: When success starts costing you more than it gives with Rosie Burgess
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
This episode is a grounded, honest conversation about what happens when a life that works on paper starts to cost you internally. Rosie built a successful corporate career, did everything “right,” and chose to walk away before burnout made the decision for her. Not as a dramatic reinvention but as a deliberate recalibration around family, capacity, and what she was no longer willing to override. This isn’t a story about chasing dreams or burning everything down. It’s about listening when your system starts saying no and having the self-trust to respond. What This Conversation Really...

EP182: What Self Abandonment Costs You Under Pressure with Suzi Cuthbertson
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
There’s a point where survival stops working. Not because you’re weak. But because the level you’re operating at exposes the cracks in how you’ve learned to cope. In this episode of Confessions of an Unapologetic Rebel, Emma sits down with Suzi to examine one of the most overlooked pressure patterns in high-functioning women: self abandonment. Not as a personal flaw. But as a system that once kept you safe and now quietly limits how much pressure, visibility, and responsibility you can hold. This conversation isn’t about healing for healing’s sake. It’s about what breaks first...

EP181: The Hidden Collapse Points No One Prepares You For
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
High profile women don’t collapse where the world expects them to. They don’t break at failure. They break at exposure, expansion, and scrutiny. In this episode, Emma pulls back the curtain on the predictable, invisible collapse points she sees time and time again in athletes, reality stars, and women living under public attention. From the after-win crash… to identity lag… to scrutiny overload and belonging fractures… This isn’t weakness. It isn’t ego. And it isn’t “not being able to handle fame.” It’s nervous-system overload at a level most people were never trained...

EP180: Why Do So Many Performers Crash After Wins, Launches, Press Calls, or Success Spikes?
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
Performers aren’t taken out by failure. They’re taken out by what happens after success. In this episode, Emma breaks down the invisible crash that so many athletes, performers, and public figures experience after the win, the launch, the press call, or the applause. The emotional dip. The anxiety. The identity wobble. The “everything went right, so why do I feel wrong?” moment. This isn’t weakness. It isn’t confidence. And it isn’t mindset. It’s a nervous system and identity issue and once you understand it, the shame drops away. This episode names what most people feel but...

EP179 If You Want to Hold Visibility in 2026 Stabilise The After Phase
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
Everyone obsesses over how to rise how to become visible, relevant, unstoppable. But almost no one prepares women for what comes after visibility hits. In this episode, Emma cracks open the concept of The After Phase the invisible psychological and nervous system crash that happens after the big moment, the win, the launch, the performance, the press, the spotlight. She shares a raw behind-the-scenes example from her London shoot, breaks down why expansion often triggers contraction, and reveals the real reason powerful women wobble privately after rising publicly. If you want to...

EP178 - The Identity Behind Virality - What It Really Takes To Be Seen with Anni from Haus of Viral
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
Today I’m joined by the woman who is quietly (and sometimes not quietly) engineering 1M+ views for mission-led CEOs while the rest of the industry is still polishing Canva carousels and calling it strategy. This conversation goes way beyond “how to go viral”. We go into identity collapse, the nervous system triggers no one admits on Instagram, the shadowy side of visibility, and why consistency and content formulas are useless when your system isn’t safe being seen. Ana breaks down the truth about virality: It’s not aesthetics. It’s not posting more. It’s not “speaking to your...

EP177 - Gatekeeper (Why You Are the One Blocking Your Next Level)
Confessions Of An Unapologetic Rebel
Today’s episode is a big one. A confronting one. A necessary one. Because the gatekeeper you’ve been blaming for your stalled momentum, your diluted confidence, your disappearing magnetism… isn’t your industry, your audience, your schedule, your team, your visibility or whatever bullshit excuse your mindshit has been serving up. It’s you. Not because you’re weak. Not because you’re broken. But because your nervous system still believes that expansion = danger. Inside this episode, I’m walking you through the real reason high-achieving women sabotage the very success they’ve...
info_outlineThis episode is a whole mood - bold, bitchy, honest, and dripping in the kind of truth most women avoid because they’re still hiding behind “being professional” or “getting it right.”
In this conversation, I sit down with the incredible Irene Veronica, a woman who embodies the full expression most people only pretend they’re ready for. We go deep into presence, identity, feminine expression, kink healing, shadow work, self-hate, rebuilding confidence, and what it actually takes to stop diluting who the hell you are.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re performing instead of living… if you’ve ever felt like your voice, your energy, or your presence has been edited to fit a space you’ve outgrown… if you’re craving a life where you are loud, fully expressed, and unapologetically YOU - this episode is your wake-up call.
🔥 Inside this episode we get into:
• Why women dilute their presence without realising it
• How your nervous system reveals the truth you’re trying to hide
• The identity leaks that show up in your photos, videos and brand
• Why expression is a strategy, not a personality trait
• How trauma, sexuality, and the feminine body intersect with confidence
• The difference between “being visible” and actually being felt
• What self-hate teaches you when you stop running from it
• How to reclaim the parts of you you’ve made wrong since childhood
This is not a soft conversation.
It’s not tidy.
It’s not something you listen to while convincing yourself you’re “working on it.”
It’s the kind of episode that either snaps you awake… or exposes exactly where you’re still sleeping.
If you’re done hiding in the shadows of your own brilliance, press play.
And if you know a woman who’s right on the cusp of her next level but terrified of actually being seen - send this to her. Rebels look out for each other.
