Syd Vaughan on Real Transformation, The Power of Breathwork & Intentional Wellness

Your Cup of Joy with Ariana Joy Christie

In this week’s episode of Your Cup of Joy, I’m joined by my dear friend and wellness powerhouse, Syd Vaughan, owner of 3 Well by Syd, massage therapist, personal trainer, breathwork facilitator, and all-around health and mindset guru.

Syd and I dive deep into what it really takes to transform your life physically, mentally, and emotionally. From breaking through gym anxiety to embracing the 1% rule for sustainable change, this conversation is all about meeting yourself where you're at and building from there. We get real about what keeps people stuck, the biggest misconceptions about starting a wellness journey, and how small steps can lead to massive shifts.

We also unpack the magic of breathwork and how it played a huge role in my own transformation. Syd shares what breathwork actually is, how it helps regulate the nervous system, and why just two intentional minutes a day can make a world of difference. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, disconnected, or like you’re just going through the motions, this episode will help you take a breath, literally, and find your way back to yourself.

Plus, we chat about the power of affirmations, showing yourself grace, and building a more loving relationship with you. This one is full of heart, humor, and tangible takeaways to help you start showing up for yourself, without guilt.
