Helen Harrison believes that pain holds the seeds of purpose, and she has spent 17 years guiding people through life’s highs and lows. In this episode of Think Out Loud With Me, she shares her personal journey from grief to growth, the lessons she learned about adoption, loss, and suicide, and the transformative power of joy -- all carefully woven together in her recently-released memoir, Inner Wealth: From Pain to Purpose. Through her coaching work and now the expanding circle of readers who are tapping into her lived experience, she helps others turn their own struggles into fuel for resilience and healing.
This was such an easy, fulfilling conversation! Dive in and listen as Helen joins me from Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, to wonder with me on many topics:
🌿 From Pain to Power – How life’s deepest wounds can shape our greatest strength and mental health resilience.
💫 The Alchemy of Healing – Transmuting grief, loss, and trauma into wisdom, purpose, and a return home to Self.
🏡 Adoption, Identity & Belonging – Finding yourself when the roots of where you come from are tangled in questions.
🕊 Suicide, Silence & Speaking Truth – Breaking the silence around loss, mental health, and the weight of unspoken stories.
🔥 The Sacred Art of Laughter – Why joy isn’t just lighthearted—it’s a lifeline, a healer, and a revolution.
🛤 Coaching as a Compass – Helen’s guiding philosophy for navigating the wild terrain of self-discovery and healing.
🌎 Spirituality as an Anchor – Holding onto something bigger, grounding yourself in meaning when life feels unsteady.
