info_outline Ryan Geist - Ego DeathstarTEDover's podcast
Welcome to episode number 18 of starTEDover, the final episode of season one. My idea from the beginning was to produce 18 18-minute interviews that would inspire listeners and even save lives. Though my guest today was one of my first interviews, I wanted to save publication for the season’s finale because, frankly, my guest Ryan Geist could have used a story like his when he was experiencing his darkest days of addiction and psychosis.

info_outlineMy guest today is Rachel O’Brien, who shares her story of climbing up to a “perfect life”,” being washed out with lymphoma, and the lessons of the Itsy Bitsy Spider.
Rachel started her professional life as a travel agent in Adelaide, South Australia in 1990. For 20 years she tirelessly worked her way up the corporate ladder and in early 2010, she was appointed Executive General Manager of Flight Centre Australia - responsible for $7B in sales, $200M profit and 7,000 people. This same year, she married the love of her life, Shannon O'Brien. Within months of the promotion and the dream wedding, life would take an unexpected turn when she was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins lymphoma, a life threatening illness.
This triggered a complete life change - an awakening into the ongoing journey to discover her true purpose.
In the last 10 years since achieving remission from her illness and leaving Flight Centre, Rachel has embarked on a remarkable healing journey of physical, emotional and spiritual growth and discovery.
Studying shamanic healing, nutrition, meditation, yogic sexuality and most recently, made a number of trips to Mallorca to study with a Kundalini Yoga master to become a qualified teacher.
Her working life now is spent facilitating her signature workshops - Invincible leadership and Goddess in the Boardroom, working 1 on 1 mentoring others to their full potential and as a non-executive director. And she does a bit of yoga teaching too.
Rachel considers herself a work in progress - growing, opening and learning what it is to be fully alive.
