Pass Around the Smile® Podcast

I couldn’t be more excited to share this episode with you! Ryan Shelton has been on the top of my guest wish list since I started Pass Around the Smile. His episode on the Imperfects Podcast on Shame, Jealousy and Purpose changed my life. And today, I hope this episode can have a similar effect on my beautiful community!

Ryan and I have a very open, casual, yet vulnerable conversation about the struggles we have both faced within the film and television industry. We dive into everything from rejection and competition, to the emotional resilience it takes to keep going ~ and the tough inner dialogue that shows up when we feel like we’ve failed. Ryan is so generous in sharing his thoughts ~ which I know will help my Smilie’s feel understood on many different levels. 

We also chat about how our goals can shift over time, and how doing the inner work can reveal that the big milestone we were chasing may not actually be what brings us happiness. Often, we place so much pressure on one “peak moment” that we forget to celebrate the beautiful things happening in between. This episode is a powerful reminder that joy, success, and fulfilment aren’t reserved for some far-off finish line ~ they’re available to us now, in the everyday.

A BIT ABOUT RYAN: Ryan Shelton is a writer, actor, comedian, producer and podcast host who somehow manages to keep heart at the centre of everything he does. From Rove Live to We Can Be Heroes, to writing for award-winning shows with Hamish and Andy, his creative work has shaped some of Australia’s most iconic entertainment. But it’s his honest, vulnerable work on The Imperfects podcast that’s creating a deeper kind of impact ~ helping people feel seen, heard, and understood. I know, because one episode in particular changed my life.

This episode is a powerful reminder of the magic within your mind. I’m joined by the beautiful Reese Evans ~ Mindset & Abundance Coach and founder of the YES SUPPLY METHOD ~ for an inspiring conversation on manifestation, subconscious reprogramming, and fully trusting that your dreams are on their way to you.

We dive deep into the tools that helped Reese shift her life, including:

✨ NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) — a method of rewiring limiting beliefs by understanding the language of the mind
✨ EFT Tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) — a powerful tool for releasing stuck energy, clearing negative thoughts, and calling in the good

You’ll even get to experience an EFT session led by Reece inside this episode, where we focus on releasing doubt and trusting that your manifestations are coming to life. This practice was powerful, and I know it will be a beautiful reset for your energy and mindset.

Whether you're new to these modalities or already on your manifestation journey, this conversation will leave you feeling clear, empowered, and in deep alignment with what’s meant for you.

✨

In this vulnerable episode, I share a moment I’m not proud of ~ a quiet judgement I made about someone else that caught me off guard. But instead of pushing it away, I looked at it closely… and realised it had nothing to do with them, and everything to do with a fear I hadn’t fully healed in myself. With a focus on social media, in this episode I chat about the pressure we feel as a society to prove to others that we are 'happy' or 'successful,' or looking and feeling good. However what I've learned, is that success doesn't have to look loud. When I felt into this ~ the need to prove to others how 'well' I was doing melted away. It allowed me to breathe, the pressure melted away and I started becoming  enjoying my life a lot more! 

This episode is also for anyone who’s ever felt irrelevant, behind, or like their best achievements are already behind them. I explore how we measure our worth by the last “big thing” we did, and how that pressure to constantly top ourselves keeps us stuck in self-doubt.

We also dive into;
~ The freedom that comes when we understand our projections
~ Why we over-explain and justify ourselves when we’re feeling unworthy
~ How letting go of the need to prove our success to others brings a refreshing, peaceful energy. 

And I close with some reflective questions to help you redefine what success truly means to you:

💭 What if closing a business, stepping away, or going quiet is a sign of clarity, not collapse?
💭 What if rest, change, or redefinition is a brave, empowered choice?
💭 What if your successes don’t have to be put on show to actually matter?

This is one of those episodes that might just unlock something big ~ even if it starts small.

LOVE YOU SMILIES!!! Cleo xxx

Click here to find out more about our October retreat — we’d love to have you there! ✨

Brooklyn and I are so excited to share this real and heart-opening conversation with you ~ and to officially announce that we’re hosting another retreat together this October (9th–11th)! A couple of years ago, we co-hosted the most beautiful retreat, and we’ve been dreaming of doing it again ever since. The time has come! Link above for our wellness, yoga and manifestation retreat! 

I want you to feel like you're sitting down for tea with us in this episode.  We chat about what it really feels like to grow, evolve, and hold space for others while navigating our own healing and self-worth journeys.

We chat about so much in this episode, and I ask Brooklyn to open up about:
✨ The parts of herself she’s no longer willing to shrink
✨ The things she used to chase ~ and now feels at peace without
✨ How doing the inner work has changed the way she shows up in her business and community
✨ The subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways she’s given her energy away ~ and how she’s learning to protect it
✨ What success means to her now, compared to a few years ago
✨ And of course, imposter syndrome ~ and how it still shows up, even when you’re fully living your purpose. 

We really hope you feel seen and heard in this episode and maybe even inspired to stop proving, stop pushing, and soften into who you truly are.

HELLO MY SMILIES!

In this episode, I’m diving deep into a concept that has completely shifted the way I manifest ~ the Universe doesn’t respond to how hard you hustle ~ it responds to your energy.

We’re exploring the powerful difference between aligned energy and forceful effort, and why slowing down, softening, and tuning in might actually move you forward faster than pushing ever could.

💫 I share some personal stories of when I thought I needed to be in full hustle mode (however couldn't), and how things shifted the moment I trusted, aligned, and let go of the need to control.

Anddddd, I share a little secret that you as my podcast listeners are the first to know about! 

If you love learning the why behind manifestation, we go there too:

🧠 The Science Behind Manifestation
• Neuroscience and the Reticular Activating System – how your brain filters reality based on what you focus on
• Neuroplasticity – how your thoughts literally rewire your brain to support your desires
• Quantum Physics – how everything is energy, and how you can shift your personal energy field to align with what you want

If you’re ready to stop over-efforting, reconnect to your own magnetism, and manifest from a place of ease ~ this one’s for you.

✨ Let’s do less and attract more.
