Why Isn't Everyone Doing This? with Emily Fletcher

What if growth isn’t about pushing harder, but about letting go more skillfully? In this episode of Why Isn’t Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with coach and author Suzy Ashworth for a grounded, activating conversation about identity shifts, pivots, and what it actually takes to receive more in life and business. Together, they explore why true transformation doesn’t come from strategy alone, but from who you’re willing to become in your body, your nervous system, and your sense of self. Suzy shares how the most powerful pivots in her life and work didn’t come from forcing outcomes, but from releasing attachment to timelines, outcomes, and the need to prove. They unpack the difference between desire and striving, why pleasure and joy create magnetism, and how detachment becomes a superpower when it comes to manifestation and receiving. This conversation reframes success as an internal orientation first, and an external result second. This episode is for anyone standing at the edge of a change, sensing that the next level requires less effort and more trust, and learning how to open themselves to receive what’s already available.

What if stepping back wasn’t failure, but strategy? In this episode of Why Isn’t Everyone Doing This?, I sit down with Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled and author of The Power Pause, for one of the most validating conversations I’ve had about ambition, identity, and motherhood. Neha names something so many women feel but rarely have language for: the tension between wanting a meaningful career and wanting to be deeply present with our children, without burning ourselves out or betraying ourselves in the process. She reframes the idea of a “career pause” as an empowered, intentional choice, not a step backward, but a recalibration. We talk about why motherhood has been intellectually and culturally diminished, how internalized capitalism keeps women stuck in guilt loops, and why the most ambitious thing you can sometimes do is choose what matters most right now. This conversation is honest, nuanced, and deeply relieving, especially if you’ve ever felt like you were failing at something when you were actually just listening to your intuition. If you’ve ever felt pulled between ambition and presence… this episode is for you. In this episode, we explore: • Why motherhood has been “dumbed down” culturally • The concept of the Power Pause, and why language matters • How to make intentional choices without shame or guilt • Ambition vs. intuition (and why it doesn’t have to be either/or) • Internalized patriarchy and capitalism in working motherhood • Seasonality, boundaries, and redefining success • Why presence matters more than hours About Neha Ruch Neha Ruch is the founder of Mother Untitled, a leading platform for ambitious women navigating parenthood, and the author of The Power Pause. Her work is reshaping how society understands stay-at-home motherhood, ambition, and identity. Neha has been featured on Oprah, USA Today, and beyond. Where This Work Continues This episode touches on questions we explore more deeply inside Level 3 — how to redefine success, work with seasons instead of against them, and make choices that actually support the life you’re living now. Level 3 focuses on the inner practices that help those choices feel steady and sustainable.

What if healing didn’t have to be solitary?What if family — messy, imperfect, deeply conditioned family — could actually be part of the medicine? In this episode of Why Isn’t Everyone Doing This?, I sit down with Lauren Tauss, psychedelic facilitator, teacher, and one of the clearest communicators I know in this space. Lauren has a rare ability to bring humor, rigor, compassion, and responsibility into conversations that are often either sensationalized or sanitized. We talk about why “life itself is psychedelic,” how healing is inherently relational, and what becomes possible when we stop treating transformation as something that happens in isolation. Lauren shares her own deeply personal journey — from anorexia and control to surrender, embodiment, and trust — and how psychedelic-assisted therapy helped rewire her relationship with her body, her family, and life itself. This conversation isn’t about glorifying substances or breaking taboos for shock value. It’s about maturity. Integration. And learning how to say hello to yourself — instead of checking out. If you’ve ever been curious, cautious, skeptical, or quietly fascinated by psychedelic healing… this episode will meet you with intelligence and heart. In this episode, we explore: • Why Lauren says “life is the biggest psychedelic” • The difference between using medicine to say hello vs. goodbye • How relational healing changes family systems • Why shame, addiction, and “drug” culture need a language upgrade • The connection between meditation, surrender, and psychedelic work • Healing body image, control, and fear at the root• What integration actually means (and why it matters more than the experience) Key Moments: 00:00:00 — Why isn’t everyone tripping with their family? 00:03:35 — “Life is the ceremony”: redefining what psychedelic really means 00:06:26 — Hello vs. goodbye: the two reasons people partner with substances 00:07:47 — Compassion over judgment in addiction and numbing 00:09:15 — Lauren’s first ayahuasca experience and healing anorexia 00:12:27 — “It’s time to retire your extra-small life” 00:14:41 — Body as gift: remembering the blessing of being alive 00:15:49 — Why meditation is surrender school (and prepares you for life) Where This Work Continues If this conversation stirred something in you, especially around integration, relationship, or embodiment, you may feel drawn to Level 3. Level 3 is where we focus on building the inner stability, nervous system resilience, and daily practices that allow deep experiences (psychedelic or otherwise) to actually change how you live.

For our 100th episode, we’re bringing you a rare and deeply sacred conversation with ceremonialist, teacher, and ritual artist Isis Indriya — recorded live with the participants of our Egypt pilgrimage container. This wasn’t just an interview; it was a transmission. A remembering. A reorientation back to the technologies, rituals, and embodied wisdom that humans have used for millennia to become living temples. Isis is one of the most devoted students and teachers of Kemet, divination, and ancient ritual arts that I’ve ever known. Her command of lineage — and her humility within it — is breathtaking. In this conversation, she guides us into what it truly means to be in devotion, to walk as a sacred vessel, and to build an inner architecture strong enough to hold the frequencies we’re calling in. If you feel the pull toward Egypt, toward ancient remembrance, or toward rebuilding your own inner temple… this episode will speak directly to that place inside you. In this episode, we explore: · Why devotion is a technology, not a performance · How to build the inner architecture required for mystical work · The difference between ego-based spirituality and lineage-based service · Why ritual, prayer, and offering were central to ancient Egyptian life · How to listen for your assignment — and how to prepare your body for it · How to become a vessel strong enough to carry the frequency you’re seeking Key Moments: 00:00:00 — Opening the space & inviting Isis to pray us in 00:01:05 — What it means to hold wisdom with humility and lineage 00:04:30 — Devotion as a living technology 00:12:44 — Building the “inner temple” as preparation for any spiritual path 00:22:51 — Why ancient Egypt was designed as a multi-layered initiation path 00:41:10 — How to discern between ego desire and true spiritual assignment 00:57:32 — The role of ritual in strengthening the nervous system 01:10:48 — Listening to land, lineage, and your body’s knowing 01:32:20 — What it means to carry Egypt inside you ✨Feeling the call to pilgrimage?
