Ep. 9 | Helen Amery on the Uncle Who Made Life Warmer, Kinder, and Funnier

In this episode of The Brilliant Humans Podcast, Jonathan speaks with Helen Amery - Mace Energy Method Practitioner, founder of Wild Fig Solutions, and someone devoted to helping people release limitations and rediscover emotional freedom.

Helen pays tribute to her Uncle Fred - a gentle, warm, endlessly funny presence who shaped her childhood with kindness, silliness, and a deep sense of belonging. From daft jokes to playing the fool, Fred was the kind of person who filled rooms with laughter and made everyone feel seen.

In this conversation, Helen reflects on:

• How Fred’s warmth and humour became a defining part of her family
• The power of silliness and why laughter is one of the purest forms of love
• The comfort of unconditional acceptance from an adult who truly “gets” you
• How loved ones can shape who we become long after they’ve gone

A gentle, uplifting celebration of a man who embodied kindness, community, and joy - and a reminder that the people who make us feel safe, seen, and light-hearted are often the ones we carry with us forever.
