ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What does it look like to actually live on your own terms - not just talk about it? Agnes, known on Instagram as The Ginger Witch, is the woman doing all the things a lot of us only dream about. From 10 days of silent meditation in a Vipassana retreat (twice!) to seven weeks training at a kung fu school in the mountains of China, Agnes has made a life out of leaning into discomfort - and she wouldn't have it any other way.
In this episode we talk about:
- How Agnes found her path and what she's building towards
- The Vipassana silent meditation retreat - what it is, what it costs you, and why she recommends it to everyone
- Her kung fu experience in China, and how it changed her relationship with discipline and her own mind
- Why fear and excitement are the same thing - and how to choose which one you feel
- Self-actualisation, side quests, and why being a "jack of all trades" isn't a flaw
- The surprising freedom that comes from routine
- Her philosophy on joy, vulnerability, and connecting with the world around you
Agnes is living proof that the biggest barrier between you and the life you want is usually just the decision to go for it. This one will stay with you.
