"Remove the dead body.”

Yes… that’s how this episode starts.

A little creepy. Very powerful.

In my first International Women’s Day Special Edition, I speak with Dr. Leanne Elich about stress, mindset, and the emotional weight we carry.

Here’s what we unpack:

1.Don’t feel guilty when you’re under stress.
Stress is not weakness.
It is your body trying to protect you.
You are not failing —
you are responding.
Remove the guilt.

2. Optimism is not the same as positivity.
Positivity says, “Everything is fine.”
Optimism says, “I will find a way.”
Action beats empty positive thinking.

3. Build your emotional backpack.
Every lesson, mistake, mentor, and challenge becomes a tool.

When life feels heavy, you reach into that backpack and use what you’ve packed.

As we step into March and celebrate International Women’s Day with this year’s theme Give to Gain, this episode sets the tone.

When we give ourselves grace,
When we give others support,
We all gain strength.

Why do we often make our worst decisions when we are under the most pressure? In this episode of Wondervoice, Dr. Leanne Elich, a renowned Behavioral Economi...

Lunar New Year Eve Reflection

As we close the Year of the Snake, you may have felt change, uncertainty, and important decisions arising.

This is a transition year, a time to shed what no longer fits.

Let go of:
• draining people
• heavy emotions
• unaligned tasks
• old identities

Pause. Reflect. Reclaim your clarity.

With clarity comes power.

Now we prepare for Horse energy 🐎
— momentum, direction, and forward movement.

Run with focus.
Move with purpose.
Step into 2026 strong.

Wishing you all abundance, calm strength, and aligned success.

來到蛇年最後一晚，
你可能感覺到今年特別多轉變、選擇同不確定。
其實，這是一個過渡與蛻變的年份。

就像蛇要蛻皮一樣，
是時候輕輕放下不再適合自己的東西：

• 消耗你能量的人
• 放不下的情緒
• 做到好忙但無意義的事情
• 限制自己的舊角色與想法

今晚，給自己一個小小的停頓。

靜一靜，想一想：
我想放下什麼？
我想把能量放在哪裡？

當你重新找回清晰，力量就會回來!

準備迎接馬年的動能 🐎
一步一步向前，帶著方向、帶著力量去奔跑。

願新一年帶給你：
- 豐盛與好運
- 平安與喜樂
- 內心安定的力量
- 順勢而行的成功

新年快樂 ❤️
願我們都輕裝上路，迎向更好的自己。

With happiness,
Team at Wonderlab

Checking “world’s best coffee shop” off the list today ☕....Happy Valentine’s Day!

09/02/2026

I still remember this moment so clearly.

After a long day of work... sometimes after a business trip,
I finally step into my house…
and it feels like I’ve walked into a war zone.

Bags on the floor.
Shoes everywhere.
Plates still on the table.

Only my dog is welcoming at the door...

And suddenly… something shifts inside me.

Not anger at first. More like a quiet ache.

A voice starts whispering:
“𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦?”
“𝘈𝘮 𝘐 𝘷𝘢𝘭𝘶𝘦𝘥?”
“𝘞𝘩𝘺 𝘥𝘰 𝘐 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘴𝘰 𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘥?”

This is emotional wellness in real life.

Not in a book.
Not in theory.
But in those small, everyday moments that hit us when we’re already tired.

Most of us were taught that 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 means:

• Push through
• Stay strong
• Don’t feel too much

But what if your emotional reaction isn’t weakness, it’s information?

𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗘𝗽𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝟯: 𝗘𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀

In this episode, I sit down with Lora to talk about emotional intelligence in a way that actually applies to real life.

We explore:

• Why emotional triggers show up when we least expect them
• How anxiety and frustration are signals, not failures
• Simple ways to regulate emotions before they spill into conflict
• Micro-shifts that help you respond — not react

This conversation reminded me that confidence isn’t about controlling everything around us.

It’s about learning how to sit with what we feel, without letting it control us.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to prioritise your inner peace… this is it.

🎧 Listen to Episode 3 of WonderVoice Because emotional wellness isn’t about doing more — it’s about understanding yourself better.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to prioritize your inner peace, this is it. We often go through life thinking that "resilience" means suppressing our emoti...

𝗟𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗲𝗻𝗱, 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗮𝘀𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗴𝗼𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝘀.
𝗠𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀: 𝙨𝙪𝙗𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜.

Not because I don’t believe in goals.
Not because money isn’t important.

I run a business.
We 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 to hit numbers.
We 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 to stay financially stable to support our team and keep moving forward.

But if I’m honest… somewhere along the way,
I realised I was carrying things that were never part of my original intention.

Extra pressure.
Unnecessary expectations.
Comparing my journey to other people’s highlight reels. Chasing “more” without always asking 𝘸𝘩𝘺.

None of these things are wrong.
But when we carry too many of them, our decisions start drifting away from what actually matters.

I didn’t start this work just for money.
I started it to develop people,
to build something meaningful,
and to work on what I genuinely care about.

This year, I’m choosing to subtract what’s not essential;
so I can lead with
more clarity, energy, and honesty.

If this reflection resonates with you, this Friday I’m hosting a small, intentional networking lunch:

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿, 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗥𝗵𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗺 — 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗠𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆

I’ve invited 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻, founder of 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘷𝘦𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘛𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘴𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮, to join us as our guest speaker.
Freeman’s work is about travel not as escape, but as intentional reset; how stepping out of routine helps leaders regain clarity, energy, and perspective before moving forward again.

• A small, intentional networking lunch
• Real conversations, not surface-level networking
• A reset before the year gets too loud

Sometimes the most powerful move isn’t pushing harder; it’s finding a better rhythm to lead from.

Hello Better 2026!

I loved Mel Robbins’ post on the 9 life-changing habits she’s taking into 2026.

Inspiring. Practical.
A real wake-up call.

But here’s the part we don’t talk about 👇
Knowing isn’t the problem.
Consistency is.

Most of us already know what to do.
What’s hard is:
• where to start
• how to keep going when motivation disappears

Because real change doesn’t come from inspiration alone.
It comes from the right environment.

One with strategy, structure, and community.

These 9 habits aren’t just “nice ideas”.
They’re identity upgrades.

And this is where the 7 Wonders comes in.

Not a checklist.
A system for real life.

Skin & Body.
Mind.
Love.
Work.
Money.
Voice.
Pause.

You don’t change everything at once.
You start where your energy leaks.

Better 2026 isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing the right things, consistently — with support.

✨ Better 2026 starts now.

💬 Which Wonder do you need most right now?

2025 wasn’t a year of expansion.
It was a year of decisions.

The kind that test your leadership,
not your endurance.

March – I launched PAUSE, choosing clarity over constant motion.

May – I walked away from our Chatswood space, choosing direction over attachment.

September – I closed PORES X and opened a new Wellness Centre in the sky
— not scaling faster, but scaling smarter.

December – We delivered 15+ events in three months, proving that focus creates momentum.

What year 2025 has taught me:

• Growth doesn’t always look impressive from the outside

• Pausing is not slowing down —
it’s strategic recalibration

• Letting go is often the highest form of leadership

• Direction matters more than speed

Looking Ahead: 2026 & The 7 Wonders
2026 is not about doing more.

It’s about doing what actually matters.

not the motivation anymore...

It’s infrastructure for sustainable life and leadership.

Hello 2026, I am ready!

23/12/2025

Pausing by the water.
Reflecting on 2025.
Feeling grounded, grateful, and ready for what’s next.

Most people know I’m the founder of 𝗪𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗯 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀.

But not everyone knows what we actually do.

𝗪𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗹𝗮𝗯 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀,
so they can grow personally and professionally 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘣𝘶𝘳𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘳 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘷𝘦𝘴.

One day, a business owner asked me:

“Rachel… do you only work with C-suite leaders or business owners?
Because you always mention 𝘩𝘪𝘨𝘩 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘴.”

My answer was simple: 𝗡𝗢.

High performance has 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗹𝗲.

It has everything to do with:

• how you think
• how you treat yourself and others
• how much love and care you give to your own wellbeing

To me, a 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗲𝗿 is someone who understands this:

👉 Health matters
👉 Love matters
👉 YOU matter

They know success is not about becoming a slave to money.

They know they are human; with real needs, emotions, and limits.

And here’s the truth most people don’t realise:

We were never taught wellbeing or wellness growing up.

We were expected to “just figure it out” as adults.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not important.

It just means no one showed us how.

A true high performer chooses to learn how to
stay healthy, grounded, and connected to themselves
even while chasing big goals.

At the end of the day, we all have a choice:

You can spend your time only chasing money…
or you can choose to earn well 𝘢𝘯𝘥 take care of yourself,
so your life, wellbeing, and happiness grow together.

If you want to learn how to become a wellbeing-led high performer,
DM “𝗪𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿” and I’ll share how we can support you on that journey.
