89. It’s Not Too Late to Change Your Life: From Full-Time Physio to Founder of Hype Girl with Ash Ormond

Ash Ormond wears many hats as a physio-turned-founder, community builder, content creator and writer and she’s the energy behind Hype Girl Social Club, a fast-growing community helping women find real connection IRL. In this episode, Ash opens up about her late ADHD diagnosis, juggling “too many hats”, starting Hype Girl from a simple walk, and finally leaving a decade-long physio career to build a life that actually fits her.

In this episode, we chat about:

• From physio to Hype Girl: how a walk with a friend turned into a 1,000s-strong community
• ADHD & identity: getting diagnosed later in life, what suddenly made sense, and how it shows up in business
• Friendship vs community: why you can “have friends” and still feel lonely, and how Hype Girl fills that gap
• Starting small & scrappy: the first walk, the TikTok that blew up, and running events with no events background
• Burnout & ambition: loving “full pelt” life… and the cost when you don’t slow down
• Leaving the ‘safe’ career path: sunk costs, stability, imposter syndrome and finally quitting physio
• Relentless > fearless: the mindset shift Ash uses now, and the advice she’d give her fresh-out-of-school self
