The Truth About Real Confidence, Body Image and Showing Up For Yourself | Emily Skye

Emily Skye is one of Australia's most recognisable voices in fitness and wellbeing, but her story is about so much more than exercise.

In this warm and honest conversation, Jules sits down with Emily to talk about what really sits beneath a life that looks strong from the outside. Emily opens up about growing up as an insecure, shy girl who couldn't cope with the everyday, her later ADHD and autism diagnoses, and the years she spent chasing love and acceptance in all the wrong places before discovering that movement made her feel, in her words, like a superhero.

Emily is refreshingly real about the thing so many of us get stuck on: seeking validation from other people. Her message is simple and hard won. You cannot get worth from outside yourself. It doesn't work. Take it from her.

Together, Jules and Emily explore why feeling good matters more than looking good, how to build movement into a busy life without the guilt, and why you have to put yourself first before you can show up for everyone else. They talk about the pressure women carry, navigating hormones and menopause, the power of strength training as we age, gut health, and learning to speak to yourself the way you'd speak to your own child.

This is a conversation about confidence, self-worth and being kind to yourself in a world that constantly tells you you're not doing enough. You are. Pour yourself a cup of tea and settle in.
