Platonic sparks fly in today’s episode, when Brooke sits down with Meg Berryman of Beyond Being Well. Meg is a women’s coach, mum, yoga teacher, empowerment educator and fabulous no-BS human. We couldn’t wait to have her on the show to talk about her work and especially the link between making changes for ourselves and making changes for the collective, which is something Brooke has felt herself being pulled toward more and more.

Meg talks about the journey from wellness to wholeness to igniting social change – a shift from self to collective focus. She touches on the importance of discovering what wellness is to us as individuals, connecting to the body, why we need compassion in the face of patriarchy and capitalism and so much more. This conversation was truly effortless but engaging, and we hope you enjoy!

Questions featured in this episode:


What does wellness mean to you?


How can people can start to explore what wellness looks like for them?


Do you think it’s a counter-cultural move to fully explore your own wholeness?


Do you find that a lot of people reach the point of wanting to shift their focus from the self to the collective in their explorations of wholeness?
