Show Notes
Over the past few episodes, we've unpacked why mid-year slumps happen, shared our different perspectives on getting out of them, and talked about what it really means to reset your life without trying to become a completely different person. Now it's time to bring it all together. This episode is the wake-up call you might not want, but probably need. We explore the uncomfortable truths that keep us stuck, why we often blame our timing, motivation or circumstances instead of taking ownership, and how raising your standards can completely change the direction of your life. We challenge you to ask yourself the questions you've been avoiding. What truth have you been avoiding? Where are you lying to yourself? What part of your life feels out of alignment? What are you blaming instead of changing? What behaviours are no longer acceptable for the person you're trying to become? Because the reality is, you can want more for your life, but eventually you have to start acting like it. The things you tolerate become the life you live, and if you keep accepting a life you say you don't want, you're choosing it. This episode isn't about becoming perfect. It's about becoming honest. It's about having the hard conversation with yourself, taking responsibility, embracing discomfort and choosing growth over excuses, because that's where real momentum begins. Your next chapter starts the moment you stop making excuses for the current one. 2026 Notion template Raw Reality https://rawreality.com.au/ **https://rawreality.com.au/products/life-upgrade-system-notion-template** Between Us Connection Cards https://rawreality.com.au/products/between-us-cards?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard&utm_medium=product-links&utm_content=web Find us below: @rawreallity https://www.instagram.com/rawreallity?igsh=cjZlMzZsM2lva3hw @ttorisstory https://www.instagram.com/ttorisstory/ @fitwithlilyy https://www.instagram.com/fitwithlilyy/ Community Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/v3sbEonnywyvp1h7/

From opening her own salon at just 19 to stepping into the Love Island villa, Issy has already lived so many different chapters, and we’re getting into all of it. We chat about backing yourself as a young female founder, the realities of building a business, and turning setbacks into opportunities after her salon was broken into. Of course, we couldn’t have Issy on without unpacking her Love Island experience, from feeling misunderstood on the show to being dumped and Conor choosing to leave the villa with her. We also get into life after Love Island, travelling together, navigating how the world sees you, and making sure you never lose sight of who you are outside of what people see online. Issy’s story is a reminder that there is so much more to someone than what we see on our screens, and we can’t wait for you to get to know the girl behind the villa. 2026 Notion template Raw Reality https://rawreality.com.au/ **https://rawreality.com.au/products/life-upgrade-system-notion-template** Between Us Connection Cards https://rawreality.com.au/products/between-us-cards?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard&utm_medium=product-links&utm_content=web Find us below: @rawreallity https://www.instagram.com/rawreallity?igsh=cjZlMzZsM2lva3hw @ttorisstory https://www.instagram.com/ttorisstory/ @fitwithlilyy https://www.instagram.com/fitwithlilyy/ Community Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/v3sbEonnywyvp1h7/
We’re catching up on everything happening in our lives lately! From Tori’s mum life updates and late-night Glassons shopping to Lily’s wedding dress journey, wedding planning and trying to figure out if she wants a blue or burgundy phone, there’s a LOT to unpack. We’re also asking the big question: Is it normal or are we just weird? From accidentally stalking someone’s entire family on Instagram to making up fake scenarios in our heads and getting genuinely upset about them, we’re putting some of our most questionable habits to the test. Plus, we’re sharing this week’s recommendation and having a good old girls’ chat about everything in between. 2026 Notion template Raw Reality https://rawreality.com.au/ **https://rawreality.com.au/products/life-upgrade-system-notion-template** Between Us Connection Cards https://rawreality.com.au/products/between-us-cards?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard&utm_medium=product-links&utm_content=web Find us below: @rawreallity https://www.instagram.com/rawreallity?igsh=cjZlMzZsM2lva3hw @ttorisstory https://www.instagram.com/ttorisstory/ @fitwithlilyy https://www.instagram.com/fitwithlilyy/ Community Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/v3sbEonnywyvp1h7/
We’re joined by Anna Archer, content creator, runner, founder of On The Run Club, early Runna investor and someone who has built a career online while continuously evolving.
Life lately has been a little bit hectic, so we’re chatting all things slowing down, business stress, weddings, Christmas, summer and learning that you actually CAN’T do 100% of everything.Tori is postponing her project, enjoying being back in a slower season and letting Tate develop at his own pace, while Lily is navigating the chaos of being a female business owner and learning how to regulate through the stress.We’re also talking hair, fashion, eating out, car deals, staff shoes, wedding planning, our latest event, the things we’re loving right now and, of course, our latest recommendations.Plus, we have to answer the very important question… **why is everyone suddenly obsessed with Paris?!**And because we clearly need more hobbies, we’re creating our ultimate girls’ activity bucket list. Rock climbing, bowling, surfing, hiking, tennis and more.Basically, another very real life update with a little bit of everything. 💌2026 Notion templateRaw Reality https://rawreality.com.au/**https://rawreality.com.au/products/life-upgrade-system-notion-template**Between Us Connection Cards https://rawreality.com.au/products/between-us-cards?utm_source=copyToPasteBoard&utm_medium=product-links&utm_content=webFind us below:@rawreallity https://www.instagram.com/rawreallity?igsh=cjZlMzZsM2lva3hw@ttorisstory https://www.instagram.com/ttorisstory/@fitwithlilyy https://www.instagram.com/fitwithlilyy/Community Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/v3sbEonnywyvp1h7/
