Sometimes the most meaningful conversations are the ones that aren't planned.
 
In this special episode, Ava is joined by her close friend, entrepreneur, and KX Pilates studio owner Kylie Falconer for an unscripted conversation recorded during a Functional Spirituality retreat in Broome.
 
Together, they explore what it really looks like to build a life that supports both ambition and wellbeing. From entrepreneurship and burnout to nervous system regulation, people-pleasing, motherhood, and designing a life with intention, this conversation offers an honest look behind the scenes of two women navigating business, spirituality, and personal growth.
 
Ava also shares the deeper vision behind Spanda, the lessons she's learned as a leader, and why she believes the modern spirituality industry often leaves people inspired—but without a clear, functional path forward.
 
If you've ever wondered what these conversations sound like off the stage and outside the classroom, this one's for you.
