The world has been our oyster. We’ve been there, done that. Invited to the White House, presented at Harvard, sung back-up vocals for the Rolling Stones and vision quested in outback Australia. Inspired hundreds of millions of people to embrace their bodies, led a high-profile Board through a public-health crisis and ignited change in thousands of leaders and workplaces all over the world.

Sure, we’ve tasted plenty of worldly success, but life has served up some tough-to-digest gritty shit too. Painful divorces, dark nights of the soul, burn-out on repeat. Now, we’re on a new adventure and we’re choosing ourselves.

We’re done with playing it safe, making nice, blending in, bowing down, bending over backwards, following the rules. We’re not here to fuck around. Dimming our light. Diminishing our value. Denying ourselves pleasure. Treading well-worn pathways. Putting ourselves last. Undermining our power.

It’s time to untether from the binds that have kept us small. Unshackle from the expectations that have cost us joy. Quit playing the game the way we’ve been told to play it. Come swim with us, we’ll show you how to choose your own adventure too!

Love,
Dr Gemma Munro, Taryn Brumfitt & Mia Handshin.
