In this episode of The True Form Podcast, I sit down with the powerful and inspiring Dr. Sarah Williams—an intercultural community development practitioner, educator, artist, and speaker—whose life’s work revolves around turning pain into purpose and using creative expression to drive social change.

We explore how hip hop, hope, and healing have shaped her philosophy and purpose, and why she believes every person is born to stand out. From her work with culturally diverse communities and youth in Australia to her commitment to anti-racism and Indigenous inquiry, Sarah brings a unique lens on identity, leadership, and what it means to truly “in-spirit” others.

💥 Topics we cover:

The meaning of alchemy and how to find your “why”

How creative expression (rap, poetry, dance) can unlock healing

Youth empowerment, leadership, and building space for transformation

The importance of identity, culture, and community in personal growth

Why “being born to stand out” is not just a phrase—it’s a calling

How her journey connects local work in Melbourne to global movements

This episode is full of truth, reflection, and powerful insight. Whether you work with people, lead teams, or are trying to find your own path—you’ll take something real from this.

A friend said this during a conversation about finance, but I couldn’t stop thinking about how much it applies to health and fitness:

And look, the health and fitness industry? It’s full of crap.
Advice is everywhere—every influencer, every program, every quick fix promising the ultimate result.
Yes, I get the irony: I’m here giving advice on social media too. But stay with me.

Here’s the difference:
In finance, bad advice can wreck your bank account.
In health? Even the "crappy" advice—most of it still encourages you to move your body and eat better.
And that will help you live a longer, healthier, happier life.

No one is seriously out here saying:

So while everyone’s offering their own spin—HIIT vs. Pilates, low carb vs. plant-based—the message underneath is the same:
Move your body. Eat real food. Avoid ultra-processed junk.

That’s it.
Simple. Effective. Universal.

The trick?
Find the version of that advice—the “crap”—that works for you.
Because consistency beats perfection every time.

Every time I talk about this, people think I’m targeting them directly.
I’m not.

This is a pattern I’ve seen over and over—coaching people in person, online, and in myself:
The confusion between what we want and what we need.

When you're trying to build new habits or improve your health, your old self starts whispering in your ear:

But do you really need it?
Or do you just want it—because it’s easier, more comfortable, or what you’ve always done?

This shows up all the time in the language people use.
A client says, “I need a rest day.”
So I ask: “Do you need one—or do you just want one?”

There’s nothing wrong with rest—but let’s be honest about what rest actually is.
It’s not a day of Netflix and UberEats.
It’s still movement. Still nourishment. Still aligned with your goals.

So the next time you catch yourself saying, “I need…”
—“I need that dessert.”
—“I need to skip today’s workout.”
—“I need to stay up and binge this show.”

Pause.
Ask yourself: Is this a need—or just a want?
Because left unchecked, those wants disguised as needs will quietly pull you away from the life you’re trying to build.
