Finding Connection After Feeling Lost with Jennillee Cabellon
In this inspiring episode of The Full Circle Podcast, I sit down with the incredible Jennillee, a woman whose life journey has taken her from the Philippines to the United Kingdom, and from feeling like an outsider to becoming a beacon of hope for those struggling with similar challenges.
Throughout her life, Jennillee grappled with the struggle to fit in and find her place in the world. Her journey was marked by moments of self-discovery and the painful realisation that sometimes, trying too hard to fit in can lead to losing touch with one's true self. It's a story that many of us can relate to – the longing to belong and the price we sometimes pay to chase that sense of acceptance.
Today, Jennillee has harnessed her own experiences to help others navigate the turbulent waters of self-discovery. Drawing from her own journey of self-acceptance and resilience, she has become an advocate for those who feel like outsiders, offering them a safe space to embrace their uniqueness and share their stories.
Join me for this deeply moving episode as Jennillee shares her personal journey of self-discovery, the challenges she faced, and the wisdom she gained along the way.
Quotes
“And it sort of just clicked that everyone around me had a mum, a dad…and even though I was very loved, it was difficult because then I started to realise that I wasn't growing up like everybody else.” - 03:39
“Being in the Philippines, the thought of being in a Western country excited everyone. But I just remember feeling very sad. And nobody really knew how to validate how I felt. It was more of a ‘you should be grateful that you are now being given a new life.’” - 05:43
“I didn't really know how to navigate being in a country where I was a minority.” - 06:27
“We are the generation where the internet came at a dangerous time. We were in our late teens, in our early 20s, and it triggered questions…’Why don't I have this? Why don't I look like this? Why haven't I achieved this yet?’ And my mental health just plummeted.” - 09:40
“He made a joke in front of his friends about me being Asian… saying, ‘Oh, she's not as hot as Lucy Liu, but she'll do’” - 14:20

The Importance of Being Heard with Dr Trudi Taylor
Dr Trudi Taylor, Executive Coach and founder of IslandB joins me on this episode of The Full Circle Podcast to discuss the vital importance of being heard.
Throughout Trudi’s childhood and into early adulthood, she was faced with the reality that while people may have been listening to her, they weren’t understanding what she was trying to communicate – they weren’t HEARING her. This resulted in Trudi suppressing trauma, acting out of frustration, and being treated as “difficult” when all she needed was to be heard.
Now, after delving deep into the root cause of her trauma and working to uncover the obstacles that have held her back, Trudi uses her experience to support leaders in becoming more effective through improved emotional intelligence and connection with those they lead teams to become high performing through trust, healthy conflict, and attention to results, and she helps organisations equip their people to create and sustain ambitious goals.
Trudi joins me in the studio to discuss the importance of being heard and hearing the people around us, how not being heard and understood manifests later in life, and how she overcame the mental and physical effects of being misunderstood since childhood.

Healing Trauma & Living Your Truth with Megan Cooper
In this episode of the Full Circle Podcast, I am joined by Megan Cooper, a Holistic Health Coach, EFT practitioner and space-holder based in Brighton, UK. In 2015, Megan made the brave decision to leave her corporate career in London and moved to Australia to teach yoga. While there, away from her family and friends, Megan was diagnosed with a hormone imbalance which prompted her to begin healing her body naturally, the success of which led her to study Holistic Health and Nutrition to help others do the same.
Megan continues to deepen the way she works with clients, using EFT and Matrix Reimprinting to transform subconscious beliefs, trauma, and the way we see and experience the world: healing the past to interrupt the present and change possibility for the future.
Megan joins me in studio to discuss the importance of identifying the root cause of trauma and illness, the impact of trusting your internal compass, and how you can live a fulfilling life that is true to who you are.
Quotes
“I felt this deadening inside myself, and it wasn’t really about the job because lots of people worked in that industry and were perfectly happy. But it was just about me and it not being my authentic place in the world.” - 09:12
“I decided to treat myself holistically and naturally… I did a bit of inventory of the past decade of my life…I basically spent the last 10 years of my life drinking, smoking, taking drugs, partying, not getting much sleep, working in a job that I didn’t like… I wonder what would happen if I just did all of the opposite things…” - 22:57
“I went to go and have rescans, and about 18 months later they said ‘You have completely reversed your condition’ which is pretty unbelievable.” - 26:19
“I understood the success I had of doing what I was doing, but I didn’t understand HOW I’d done it. So that inspired me to go and study holistic health and nutrition.” - 26:56
“I only go wrong when I ignore my own internal compass” - 31:00
“That’s where the real liberation lies…as soon as we can bring things back to the root cause rather than chipping away at the edges.” - 37:25
