Xposed Living : Be Ageless

What if clutter isn’t really about the stuff?In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Christine Vasseur, decluttering and downsizing coach and founder of Clear Method, for an honest conversation about the connection between our spaces, our anxiety, and the emotional weight we carry.Christine shares how her own experience with anxiety helped her understand the powerful link between environment and mental well-being — and why creating calm, functional spaces is about more than organization. It’s about clarity, self-compassion, and learning to release what no longer serves who you are becoming.Together, Stacey and Christine explore:• Why clutter can reflect internal overwhelm• How possessions often hold memories, guilt, identity, or fear• Why letting go can feel emotional — and freeing• How to start small when your space feels overwhelming• Why your home should support your nervous system, not drain it• The power of creating systems that actually fit your lifeThis episode is for anyone who feels weighed down by their space, their stuff, or the belief that they “should have it all together.”Because sometimes the first step to creating more in your life…is clearing what no longer belongs.Christine VasseurFounder of Clear MethodWebsite: https://www.clearmethod.ca/Instagram: ClearMethodLinkedIn: Christine VasseurEmail: [email protected] Information

What happens when the career you’ve built… ends? Who are you without the role, the routine, the identity tied to your work?In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless Unfiltered, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Tracey Thomson to explore what she calls “refire & rewire” the transition from retirement into a new phase of identity, purpose, and possibility.Tracey brings a unique perspective, working closely with individuals navigating life after long-term careers, particularly those whose identity has been deeply connected to the work they’ve done for decades.Together, Stacey and Tracey unpack:• The identity shift that happens when work is no longer your anchor.• Why retirement without purpose can feel more unsettling than freeing.• What it means to “refire” instead of retire.• How to reconnect with values, interests, and imagination.• The role mindset and belief play in shaping what comes next.• Why this stage of life can be a powerful opportunity — not an ending.This conversation goes beyond retirement planning.It’s about understanding how identity evolves — and how to move into your next chapter with intention instead of uncertainty.Because the question isn’t just:What are you retiring from?It’s:What are you stepping into? Listen now on Xposed Living: Be Ageless Unfiltered—To connect with Tracey: https://www.masteryourmindsetwithcoacht.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracey-thomson—This is Xposed Living.Not Retire.Refire and Rewire!

 Burnout Was the Wake-Up Call: Owning Your Story & Becoming Who You’re Meant to Be | Fraser Sockett  

There’s a moment in life that doesn’t always look like a breakdown…Sometimes, it’s a wake-up call.In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey sits down with Michelle Nielsen, founder of CoCreate Collective Canada, for a deeply honest conversation about what it really looks like to lose yourself — and find your way back.Michelle shares her journey through postpartum depression, health challenges, and the quiet realization that somewhere along the way, she had lost connection with her spark.What followed wasn’t a dramatic collapse.It was something far more powerful.A decision.To stop living the life she thought she was supposed to want…and start creating one that actually felt like hers.Together, they explore:• The emotional weight of “having a good life” that doesn’t feel aligned• How postpartum depression and health challenges became a wake-up call• Why community, vulnerability, and asking for help matter more than ever• The role of boundaries in reclaiming self-worth• What it means to live authentically — even when it disrupts everything• How Michelle is now creating spaces for connection and collaboration through CoCreate CollectiveThis episode is for anyone who has ever felt like something is missing…even when everything looks “fine” on the outside.Because sometimes the most powerful thing you can do…is choose yourself.Michelle NielsenFounder, CoCreate Collective Canada Website:https://co-createcollective.ca Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/michelle_co_create CONNECT WITH MICHELLE

Most leaders are taught how to manage.Very few are taught how to lead people.And that gap shows up in performance, culture, and trust.In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey sits down with leadership facilitator and team alignment expert Trudi du Toit to unpack what it really takes to build teams that don’t just function — but thrive.This is a conversation for leaders who are ready to move beyond outdated models of leadership and into something more effective, more human, and more sustainable.Because the future of leadership isn’t about having all the answers.It’s about having the awareness to lead yourself first. Sound Bites from the Episode“Support what they help to create.”“Trust is as essential as oxygen.”“Authentic living means being okay with yourself.”Trudi du Toit Website: https://leadwithcatalyst.co.za LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/trudydutoi/

Many people study success.Few actually apply it.In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey sits down with performance coach and strategist Brett Knopf to unpack the difference between knowing what works — and having the discipline to actually do it.Brett shares the internal shift required to leave corporate certainty and bet on himself, the role belief plays in that decision, and why applied knowledge is where real power lives.Together they explore:• Why most people stay stuck between learning and action• The belief required to bet on yourself• Why discipline creates freedom — not restriction• The role of self-leadership in business, sales, and life• Balancing ambition, family, and personal growth• How awareness and reflection keep leaders aligned with their goalsFor many Gen X professionals, the information isn’t the problem.The gap is execution.Because knowledge isn’t power.Applied knowledge is.And that requires the courage to act.Brett KnopfPerformance Coach for Founders & CEOsBusiness Strategist | Leadership AdvisorWith over 20 years of experience in leadership and sales management across multiple industries, Brett helps leaders strengthen their self-leadership so they can elevate performance in business and life.In his role as Global Head of Strategy for UHURU Mgmt + Living, Brett leads strategic advisory and integration for luxury fitness and wellness developments, helping align vision, design, operations, and execution for high-performance living environments.His mission is simple:Help people lead themselves at the highest level so they can lead others to theirs.Websitehttps://knopfknowssolutions.comLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/brettknopfUHURU Mgmt + Livinghttps://uhurumanagementliving.com Guest Information Connect with Brett

This episode is about one thing most people misunderstand when it comes to success:Belief comes first. Evidence comes second.Recorded on International Women’s Day, Stacey shares a powerful solo conversation inspired by her experience speaking at the Business Mastery Summit and the conversations happening with leaders who are ready to create more — more impact, more confidence, more results, and more freedom.Too many people wait for proof before they believe in themselves.But the leaders who create extraordinary lives operate differently.They believe first.In this episode, Stacey breaks down the mindset shift required to collapse time between where you are and where you want to be — not through hustle or force, but through identity, certainty, and elevated belief.Drawing from personal experience, philosophy, and timeless principles taught by thinkers like Napoleon Hill and Neville Goddard, Stacey shares how doubt quietly sabotages progress and how upgrading your identity changes everything.Inside this episode:• Why belief must come before evidence• How doubt keeps people trapped in their comfort zone• The identity shift required to create extraordinary results• Acting as if your goal is already achieved• Why certainty changes how you move through the world• How leaders collapse time between vision and reality• The power of investing in your own growthThis episode is for the leaders, dreamers, and builders who know they are capable of more — and are ready to step into the version of themselves that can create it.Because success is not about waiting for proof.It’s about becoming the person who knows.And from that place of certainty…everything changes. Connect with Stacey VanthuyneWebsite: www.raiseyourresults.caBook a 20 minute free strategy sessionor email: [email protected]  or [email protected] with me on LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook at Stacey Vanthuyne Listen.

Flourish or Fade: The Discipline of Staying Lit!

When you’ve built success by every external metric…What happens when it no longer feels like enough?In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless Unfiltered, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with entrepreneur and coach Patrick Callaghan for a conversation about the moment when winning stops working.Patrick shares the decision that forced him to confront who he was becoming — and how redefining success beyond money and achievement reshaped his direction.This isn’t about tactics or performance hacks.It’s about:• The power of decision• Facing internal conflict• Letting go of self-judgment• Gratitude and forgiveness• Goals versus vision• Why leaders must learn to lead themselves first• And how sustainable success requires identity growthTogether, Stacey and Patrick explore what happens when external achievement no longer aligns with internal truth — and why the next level of leadership always begins with self-honesty.If you’ve ever reached a milestone and quietly wondered, “Is this it?” — this conversation will land.Because sometimes the most powerful move you make isn’t building more.It’s deciding differently.—Patrick and Stacey will both be speaking live at Business Mastery Summit on March 6 in Edmonton — a room built for ambitious entrepreneurs and leaders ready to elevate.If you’re ready to get into bigger rooms and surround yourself with people who think differently, join us. Tickets available at:businessmasterysummit.caUse promo code JOINSTACEY30 for savings.To connect with Patrick directly: https://patrickcallaghan.ca/

What if reinvention isn’t something you do once — but a way of living?In this deeply expansive episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with international entrepreneur and community builder Hanne Nuutinen to explore what it truly means to rebuild, redefine, and rise — again and again.Hanne shares her journey of reinvention across continents, industries, and life chapters — including rebuilding after bankruptcy and navigating leadership as a single mother. But this conversation isn’t about hardship. It’s about identity.Together, Stacey and Hanne unpack:Why reinvention is a continuous choiceThe power of understanding your values and principlesWhy vulnerability is strength — not weaknessThe shift from competition to collaboration among womenThe role of community in resilienceWhy joy and authenticity are non-negotiableHow you define yourself — regardless of your pastThis episode is a reminder that no circumstance has the final word over who you become.Reinvention isn’t about escaping who you were.It’s about consciously choosing who you are next.Because as Hanne so beautifully says:“You define yourself.” Listen in and ask yourself:If you were free from old labels and expectations… who would you choose to be now?

Life doesn’t change all at once.It builds momentum — one step, one connection, one decision at a time.In this episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Ken Gee — entrepreneur, strategic storyteller, and trusted connector — for a grounded, engaging conversation about reinvention, resilience, and the stories we live into.Ken’s career spans multiple industries, roles, and identities — from business leadership and video production to horse racing announcing, where he describes the electric moment when a race crescendos and everything comes alive.That metaphor carries through this conversation.Because business, leadership, and life work the same way.Together, Stacey and Ken explore:Why reinvention is about staying in motion, not starting overHow connection becomes a competitive advantage when it’s built on trustWhy everyone has a story — and how storytelling shapes influence and opportunityThe importance of staying objective, curious, and grounded in a polarized worldHow passion and play reignite momentum in midlife and beyondKen reminds us that growth isn’t always about doing more — it’s about moving differently, asking better questions, and staying open to where the next chapter is leading.This episode is for entrepreneurs, leaders, and Gen Xers who know they’re capable of more — and are ready to bring fresh energy, deeper connection, and intention into the work they’re building and the lives they’re leading.President, AK MediaStrategic Video Storyteller | Business Connector | Event HostLinkedIn:  linkedin.com/in/ken-gee-1ab3a81bWebsite:  www.akmedia.worldGuest Information:  Ken Gee

Midlife — and menopause — are wake-up calls.Not because something is wrong with you, but because surviving isn’t the goal.The symptoms are real. Fatigue. Brain fog. Anxiety. Weight changes. Feeling unlike yourself.What doesn’t work is treating this season like something to get through — while hoping to feel better without doing anything different.In this Xposed conversation, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Sue Lemoine to unpack what midlife is actually revealing — especially for women navigating menopause, and for anyone feeling depleted, disconnected, or stuck in “coping mode.”Together, they explore:Why symptoms are signals of depletion, not failureHow stress, under-nourishing, and over-functioning quietly drain vitalityWhy quick fixes may help you cope — but won’t bring you back to lifeWhat inside-out care really looks like: nutrition, movement, stress regulation, and mindsetMidlife isn’t asking you to return to who you were.It’s asking you to stop settling for survival — and start choosing how you want to feel, live, and lead next.This episode is for anyone who senses that something has to change — and is ready to take responsibility without shame, shortcuts, or self-betrayal.

Together, Stacey and Wayne unpack why so many capable, successful people still question themselves — and how the mind quietly runs the show unless you learn how to lead it.This conversation Xposes:why visualization is not “woo” — it’s neurologicalhow hypnosis helps rewire limiting beliefswhy emotional regulation is the real performance advantagehow self-doubt keeps high achievers playing smaller than they need towhat ageless living actually looks like at the level of mindsetand why the most powerful realization is this: you were always enoughWayne doesn’t position himself as the magic.He reminds you that you are.If you’ve ever felt stuck, disconnected from your confidence, or unsure why your results don’t match your potential — this episode will reframe everything.Not by fixing you.But by helping you remember who you are.To contact Wayne, reach out to him from his website at: waynelee.com

Because silence was never protection — it was conditioning.Why pleasure, confidence, and knowing your body changes everything.What if the reason so many women feel disconnected from intimacy in midlifeisn’t because something is wrong with them —but because they were never taught how to talk about it?In this unscripted, unfiltered episode of Xposed Living: Be Ageless Unfiltered, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with Dr. Sonia Wright — medical doctor, sexual counselor, master certified life coach, and host of The Midlife Sex Coach for Women — to have the sex talk women were never allowed to have.This conversation isn’t about performance.It’s about permission.Together, Stacey and Dr. Sonia explore what really happens to intimacy after 40 — physically, emotionally, hormonally, and psychologically — and why so many women were conditioned to feel shame, guilt, or silence around their own pleasure. In this episode, you’ll get Xposed to:Why intimacy struggles in midlife are often about disconnection, not desireThe physical changes women experience after 40 — and why no one explained themHow societal conditioning taught women that talking about sex was “bad”Why understanding your anatomy is an act of self-trust and empowermentHow self-exploration (yes, including toys) builds confidence — not selfishnessWhy pleasure is a basic human right, not something to earn or justifyHow sex after 40 can be deeply fulfilling when women own their bodies and boundariesThis episode is equal parts education, liberation, laughter, and truth — a reminder that living agelessly includes how we relate to our bodies, our confidence, and our desires.Because pleasure isn’t taboo.Silence is. Listen with curiosity.Question what you were taught.And ask yourself: What would change if I trusted my body instead of judging it? Website: https://soniawrightmd.com Podcast: The Midlife Sex Coach for WomenIf this conversation stretched you — that’s the point.Share it with a woman who deserves permission to feel alive again — in every sense of the word.Be bold.

In this powerful solo episode, Stacey Vanthuyne speaks directly to Gen X high achievers who look successful on the outside—but feel disconnected, restless, or quietly unfulfilled on the inside.If you’ve ever thought:“This should feel better than it does”“Is this just aging?”“Why do my days feel the same, even when life looks good?”This episode is for you.Drawing from her own journey—from corporate leadership and security to risking everything to follow a bigger vision—Stacey explores why so many of us repeat the same year with a new calendar, and why comfort—not failure—is the real threat to fulfillment.You’ll hear why:Vision isn’t a word—it’s a decisionAwareness doesn’t eliminate fear, but it changes how we move with itGen X was conditioned to value control over imaginationStrategy alone doesn’t create results—identity doesThe biggest risk isn’t taking one… it’s taking none at allStacey weaves together mindset, neuroscience, universal laws, leadership of self, and real-life experiences—parenting teens, navigating aging parents, rebuilding trust in relationships, and redefining success at midlife—to show why re-evaluation isn’t a one-time event, it’s a way of life.This conversation isn’t about blowing up your life.It’s about building a better view—of yourself, your future, and what’s still possible. If you’re ready to reconnect with your imagination, your truth, and the life you actually want, Stacey invites you to join her Vision Workshop on January 13—a space to see beyond your current thinking and reclaim what you’ve been putting on hold. And if you already know you’re done repeating the same year, DISRUPT, her 8-week transformation beginning January 21, is where you commit to living from vision, identity, and belief—fully and unapologetically.The biggest risk you can take…is not taking one at all.Reach out to me [email protected] or on IG or Facebook @staceyvanthuyne  

In this candid, unscripted season finale of Xposed Living: Be Ageless, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with keynote speaker, executive coach, and longtime friend Rich Bracken for a conversation that’s equal parts grounded, reflective, and refreshingly real.Rich has lost over 110 pounds, rebuilt his identity, done the inner work through counseling, navigated fatherhood, career reinvention, and personal growth — and stayed committed to the long game when quick wins would’ve been easier. But this episode isn’t about accolades or before-and-after stories.It’s about who you become when no one is watching.Together, Stacey and Rich explore:Why identity always drives results (not the other way around)How self-talk quietly shapes the future you’re living intoWhy comparison drains joy faster than failure ever couldThe power of micro-wins and why they matter more than big momentsWhat resilience actually looks like in parenting, leadership, and lifeWhy growth requires accountability, humility, and staying in the gameThey also lean into the Gen X truth — the grit it took to build what we have, the pressure of keeping it together, and the quiet knowing that there’s still more.This episode is thoughtful, honest, occasionally playful, and deeply human — created for Gen X leaders who are done performing and ready to live with intention, edge, and integrity.As the final episode of 2025, this isn’t a wrap-up.It’s a reset.Because the edge isn’t the end.It’s the beginning.And 2026?We’re just getting warmed up.Website: www.richbracken.comConnect with Rich BrackenIts a great episode with Rich BrackenXposed Living with RIch Bracken

The description is:In this special Boxing Day solo episode, Stacey Vanthuyne doesn’t offer resolutions — she offers a reckoning.After a quieter Christmas, a year of deep personal evolution, and stepping fully into her 50th year, Stacey reflects on what it actually takes to create a different life — not just a new calendar.This episode isn’t about wins.It’s about what it costs to grow.Stacey opens up about love and loss, parenting through uncertainty, service and faith, building a business under pressure, and training harder than ever at 50 — including completing her first Half Ironman. Not to prove anything. But to live it.Throughout the episode, she calls out the Gen X beliefs she’s had to dismantle in real time:Comfort disguised as contentment“I’ll change when it’s easier”Waiting for proof before committingNegotiating with the life she says she wantsThis is not teaching.This is lived experience.As 2026 approaches, Stacey leaves listeners with one final question — not to answer out loud, but to answer honestly:Whether you think you can or you think you can’t — you’re right.So… what do you believe is possible for you?Because a new year doesn’t change your life.A new identity does.This episode is an invitation to stop negotiating…and start deciding.✨ Xposed Living: Be Ageless — for Gen X, by Gen X.

Gen X was taught to be strong.To push through.To keep going.To not talk about the pain.But no one taught us how to grieve — especially the parts of ourselves that quietly die after loss.In this raw, unscripted episode of Xposed Living, Stacey Vanthuyne sits down with music educator, coach, and resilience advocate Angie Easley for a deeply honest conversation about grief, guilt, identity, and choosing joy after profound loss.After losing her first husband in a tragic plane crash, Angie shares what many Gen Xers carry silently:the guilt that can surface when happiness returnsthe identity that shifts — or shatters — after losswhy avoiding grief doesn’t make us resilient, it just delays healingand how love after loss isn’t betrayal, but braveryThis episode challenges the belief that vulnerability is weakness and reframes resilience as more than endurance. Grief, as Angie explains, isn’t linear — and it isn’t limited to death. It can be the loss of identity, safety, certainty, or the future you thought you were building.Recorded during the holiday season — when grief often feels louder — this conversation offers something Gen X was never given permission to do:to feel deeply, to heal honestly, and to choose joy without shame.Because healing isn’t about forgetting.It’s about becoming — again. Listen now and get Xposed.To connect with Angie Easley: Website: www.resiliencereborn.orgPodcast: Resilience RebornInstagram: Easleyah

“Today’s episode is personal.”That’s exactly how Stacey opens this conversation — because this isn’t just another mindset talk or another TEDx speaker interview.This is the episode where the man behind the ‘Success Alchemist’ gets Xposed.Stacey and Brett D. Scott have shared five years of friendship, failures, reinventions, spiritual awakenings, bold risks, and identity upgrades. They studied Bob Proctor together during COVID, built coaching businesses side by side, and once flew across the world to pitch a TV show called The Perspective — long before either of them had clarity on where they were really headed.And today… all of that gets stripped back.This conversation is raw, unfiltered, and deeply human as Brett reveals:• the limiting beliefs he had to bury to become the man he is today• the people-pleasing patterns that nearly cost him his identity• the power of saying YES even when it terrifies you• the parts of fatherhood that shaped his leadership• and the truth about “Superman mode” vs. the man beneath itThis is the Brett Stacey knows —not the brand,not the persona,not the polished version…but the human being navigating courage, clarity, boundaries, failure, and self-respect in real time.You’ll hear them break down: why vulnerability is leadership how self-care becomes a spiritual discipline the courage required to reinvent your identity the lies Gen X learned about success and why action — not perfection — is the real path to confidenceThis episode is for anyone who knows they’re meant for more…but keeps getting caught between who they’ve been and who they’re becoming.If you’re ready to drop the mask, drop the excuses, and get Xposed, this one will hit you right in the truth

Leadership can look polished from the outside — titles, awards, accomplishments, confidence.But behind every powerful leader is a much deeper story: the self-doubt they had to confront, the identity they had to shed, and the beliefs they had to expose in order to rise.In this episode, Stacey sits down with Debra Kasowski — TEDx speaker, bestselling author, executive coach, and leadership powerhouse — to peel back the layers and reveal the truth behind her journey.This conversation goes far beyond her résumé.It gets into the real work:the fear she had to face, the moments she questioned her path, the identity shifts she didn’t see coming, and the power of curiosity that carried her through every reinvention.Together, Stacey and Debra dive into: Why self-doubt is often a sign of expansion — not weakness How curiosity becomes a leadership superpower The courage required to evolve beyond old identities The beliefs leaders must dismantle to step into their calling Why trusting the timing of your life changes everything The truth about keeping promises to yourself and building confidence What it means to live and lead “Xposed” — without the maskThis is a conversation for leaders who are tired of performing, tired of perfection, and ready to embrace leadership as a human, courageous, ever-evolving journey.If you’re a Gen X high achiever who has checked every box but still feels the nudge to become more — this episode will speak directly to you.Connect with Debra Kasowski: Website: www.debrakasowski.com IG: @debrakasowski LinkedIn: @debrakasowski Podcast: The Millionaire Woman Show(Featuring Stacey’s episode on Oct 10th)Listen.

Freedom isn’t something we’re handed — it’s something we decide to live.In this special Remembrance Day episode of The Disruption Xperience, I share the raw truth of what Thailand taught me about leadership, service, and the freedom that begins within.From washing the feet of women leaving the sex trade to handing out 150 packets of hope in the red-light district, this trip cracked me open — as a mother, as a coach, and as a woman learning again and again that freedom requires faith, risk, and action.Because here’s the truth: you can’t live free while staying comfortable. You can’t reclaim your power while playing small. And you can’t step into your next level without disrupting the version of you that built the last one.Whether you’re leading a team, raising a family, or rebuilding your identity, this conversation will meet you where you are — and call you higher. In this episode, we talk about:What Thailand revealed about humanity, healing, and purposeHow to reframe “hard” as holyThe myth of waiting for the perfect timeWhy the real battlefield of freedom is in your mindHow to finish 2025 strong by disrupting your comfort zone Recorded in honor of November 11 — for the brave who fought for freedom, and for the rest of us who must choose to live it. Ready to reclaim your energy and reignite your life? Listen Tuesday, November 11Xposed Living: Be Ageless Unfiltered with Stacey VanthuyneJoin me inside The Disruption Xperience.

Their energy is contagious, their laughter is real, and their insights are game-changing.As founder of Pro-Active IT Management Inc. and creator of The Vu Impact Fund, Catherine shares how she’s built trust, led with curiosity, and stayed grounded in a male-dominated industry.
