In this update, Vanessa returns to share how a slow, deliberate process led her to sell her investment property, step away from a stable government job, and now works just 10–15 hours a week alongside her childhood best friend, supporting First Nations land-back initiatives.
Episode Highlights:
- What letting go really looks like
- The guilt spiral involved in putting yourself first
- Working less does not mean earning less
Vanessa is back to share what happens when you trust the slow, boring work of letting go… one property, one career and one accountant at a time.

The Art Of Listening To Your Body
My name is Dr. Jin Ong I’m a cathartic release therapist, professionally trained as an osteopath, psychosomatic therapist, western acupuncturist and herbalist.
I’m fascinated by the mind-body connection and how your physical body is a manifestation of your emotional state.
My aim is to create awareness to the underlying emotions behind pain, injury and disease in the body as well as behvioural dysfunctions and mental imbalances. I do this using a unique blend of eastern and western philosophies and a good dose of intuition.
I love reading the body and what it's really trying to tell us through it's physical presentation, injury, pain or illness. I call it the art of listening to your body. It's all about understanding yourself and others on a deeper level.
I guide people to recognise their purpose in the world by bringing light to the issues that hold them back. I do this through an intuitive understanding of how the body speaks to us and help clients develop their emotional awareness and take actionable steps to achieve their goals.
If you want to learn to tap into your innate intuitive sense in an easy to understand way come and join me.
Pain stories are fascinating and there is so much we can learn from them. Join me as I'm joined by inspirational people who share how their life changed after their painful experience- what they had to surrender to and how their life looks now.
