She used to drink everyone under the table, and now she's on the TEDx stage.

I’ve known Kirsty for many years, first as a friend, then as her coach, and now even deeper friends. I watched her go from creating success at all costs (as she shares ~ waking up at 3am reaching for her phone and pouring wine at 4pm because she'd “earned it”) to doing the real work that changes you from the inside out.

In her past life she opened a talk to thousands with a brilliant Tina Turner rendition, quite amazing but embodying someone else entirely. Now she's on a TEDx stage, funny and grounded and completely herself.

Her talk is called “How to Stop Lying to Yourself.” She opens by calling herself a liar in recovery, talks about the collapse that finally made her stop, and then walks you through a simple way of using your body to find a truth you never have to doubt again.

I know this woman and I know where she started. Watching her on that stage, I just feel so much love and so much joy for how far she's come.

Search 'How to Stop Lying to Yourself' by Kirsty Verity on YouTube to watch the full talk.

Watch it, comment and share. 🤍

It’s amazing how quickly life comes into focus when someone dies young. The little moments we rush past suddenly feel like everything.

Rest in peace, Brenda Walding.✨

The day before my TEDx talk, everything slowed down.
After nine months of writing, refining, and practicing, it was a practice in surrender to BE THERE in that moment.
This was the final 24 hours before stepping onto the stage: the run-throughs, the feedback, the stillness, the trust.
𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘚𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘨𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘞𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘞𝘩𝘰 𝘏𝘢𝘴 𝘐𝘵 𝘈𝘭𝘭 is for every woman who’s ever looked successful on the outside while quietly wondering, 𝘸𝘩𝘺 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘐 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥?

An unexpected update on my TEDx talk.
Apparently, even TED's AI didn't know what to do with a woman talking about pleasure.

What's your take on this? ✨

“Some people are just going to check out when they hear the beginning about your life.”
and
“Do you realize this is really going to activate some people in the audience?”

One woman said, “In the beginning of your talk, I thought, 𝘰𝘩 𝘮𝘺 𝘎𝘰𝘥, 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘰𝘯 𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘐’𝘮 𝘰𝘯. But as you kept going, I realized… wow. She really gets me.”

That’s what this talk is about.
Because so often, as women, we look at each other and think 𝘴𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘮𝘦 — when in truth, we’re living different versions of the same story.

Yes, I talk about exploring pleasure.
Yes, I start where most people wouldn’t.
But that’s the point.

When you watch this talk, I hope you feel something, whether it’s activated, alive or awake to the possibilities in your life.

Like being able to share anything you want about yourself, on stage or off.

Like exploring whatever calls to you, without fear or shame.

Because this isn’t just an idea, it’s a movement.
A new way of living for women who are done settling and ready to be fully alive.

There are already so many of us walking this path.
And if you feel that spark inside you, you belong here with us.

For years I kept asking myself: why is it so hard for women to be in their feminine, when it’s our natural state?

I saw women who had done deep healing, who were creating success on their own terms, and still ~ softening, slowing down, truly receiving ~ felt like more of a dream than something that became reality.

I finally uncovered the problem: many of us are unconsciously waiting for something outside of us to change before we allow ourselves to soften: a partner showing up in our lives, a partner showing up differently, money flowing more easily, work finally calming down.

But no external circumstance can give us what we don’t yet hold within. Without healthy inner masculine structures (boundaries, clarity, self-holding) the feminine has nothing safe to soften into.

And that’s what I’ll be guiding inside 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘐𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯: 𝘈 𝘝𝘪𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭 𝘙𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 ~ 𝘈 𝘔𝘰𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘯 𝘙𝘦𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘗𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘶𝘭 𝘞𝘰𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘥.

This isn’t the same old conversation about self-care or boundaries. It’s about creating the inner architecture that lets your feminine flourish, where success stops feeling like depletion, and life starts to expand with ease, power, and joy.

We start Monday. Join us.

No one gets to a stage like this alone. It took a team, and it took being surrounded by other speakers operating at the highest levels.

That kind of mastery calls us higher, and I felt it every step of the way.

✨I want to honor the incredible team who had such a big impact on how I showed up and on the talk itself.

Yesterday I took the TEDx stage and shared why true pleasure is the new success metric and why so many women can feel unfulfilled even when they seem to have it all.

A dream years in the making and a great life experience I'll never forget. So much gratitude to the team for such a beautiful event and to the many people who supported me on this journey. I came away changed ~ expanded, stretched and so grateful. More to come…🤍
