Beyond Podcast

Matt & Corisande sit down with Stuart Sandeman, breathwork expert, founder of Breathpod and author of Breathe In, Breathe Out. Stuart went from a would-be Olympic judo player to a maths graduate, then to a finance job in Hong Kong, then to touring the world as a DJ. None of it prepared him for losing his girlfriend to cancer. After a Mother’s Day breathing class he only went to for his mum, he found what years of “big boys don’t cry” had kept locked away.

They get into why your breath is the unconscious record of everything you haven’t let yourself feel, how conscious connected breathwork can collapse time so the past and future meet in the present, and the simple carbon dioxide test that shows how stressed your system really is. Matt and Corisande also try the test live.

Matt & Corisande, with Stuart, discuss:

• The aftershock in Japan that made Stuart quit finance, and the breathing class that changed everything after his girlfriend’s death
• Why the real problem with Stuart’s grief was a belief he’d held since childhood: big boys don’t cry
• How conscious connected breathwork “collapses time,” and why that makes it such a powerful tool for manifestation
• Why the magic happens on the outbreath, and what surrender actually means for the overthinkers
• How Stuart can read what’s going on in someone’s life just by watching where their breath isn’t flowing
• Nose vs mouth breathing, why Stuart tapes his mouth at night, and the £2 chemist tape he swears by
• The carbon dioxide tolerance test you can do at home, and the one breathing exercise Stuart would keep if he could only choose one

Matt & Corisande sit down with Kelly McCloskey, an accredited feng shui functional master and former real estate agent, to unpack why feng shui isn't waving cats and gold coins but a 2,000-year-old mathematical science. Kelly spent 15 years selling Melbourne's most expensive real estate before noticing the same houses kept producing divorce, illness and financial ruin for whoever lived in them — a pattern that eventually led her to quit real estate at 31 and train full-time as a feng shui master.

They get into the real science behind feng shui (compass degrees, not trinkets), why Kelly's own house has a door nailed permanently shut, the client who made over $100,000 after opening one window, and the actual feng shui reading Kelly did on Matt & Corisande's own home.

Matt & Corisande, with Kelly, discuss:

• Why feng shui is a mathematical formula based on your home's exact compass direction, not "new age" trinkets or hanging gold coins
• The houses Kelly sold that kept producing the same divorces, illness and financial ruin for every owner, and what finally made her connect the dots
• Why she quit real estate at 31, studied feng shui full-time for two years, and what her dad said when she told him
• The four wealth, power, luck and health sectors every home has, and the simple (and sometimes extreme) ways clients activate or avoid them
• Why the same house can support one person and work against another, based on their own birth chart
• Rapid-fire answers to real questions from the Beyond Community on doors, decluttering, redecorating and common feng shui myths

Matt & Corisande sit down with Flora Crichton, a nutritional therapist specialising in fertility, to unpack why so many unexplained infertility and recurrent miscarriage cases trace back to something almost no one is taught to check: the microbiome. Flora shares her own years-long battle with endometriosis — including the painful periods, hospital visits, and being told to “just take the pill” — and how she went on to resolve her symptoms naturally, which is what led her to train as a nutritional therapist and specialise in fertility in the first place.

They get into the surprising link between oral hygiene and miscarriage, why a couple’s shared microbiome matters as much as either partner’s individually, the real answer to “should I freeze my eggs,” and — for the first time ever on the podcast — Matt & Corisande finally share the six-year-old belief, planted by a stranger at a wedding, that they’re convinced nearly stopped them from conceiving.

Matt & Corisande, with Flora, discuss: 

• Flora’s own experience with endometriosis — the symptoms she ignored for years, why it’s so often missed on a scan, and how she brought it into remission naturally rather than going on the pill
• What endometriosis actually is, and why it can make the uterus a harder place for a baby to implant, even in women who don’t know they have it
• Why the mouth’s microbiome is directly linked to miscarriage, and the simple dental habit most couples trying to conceive are skipping
• The real conversation around freezing your eggs: when it makes sense, when it doesn’t, and the women she’s worked with who conceived naturally in their 40s, 50s, and even 60
• What Flora’s learned from testing hundreds of couples about the gut, uterine, and seminal microbiomes, and why she tests partners together, not separately
• Matt & Corisande’s own six-year journey with a prophecy from a stranger that nearly became a self-fulfilling block to their fertility

Matt and Corisande sit down with social worker turned somatic coach Tamu Thomas, who nearly collapsed on her way to work before everything changed. 

From the panic attacks she didn't even recognise as panic attacks, to the moment she stood in a slave dungeon in Ghana and felt her ancestors tell her to get up, they unpack how Tamu rebuilt her entire life around flourishing instead of grinding. 

This is her honest account of burnout, ancestral healing and a six-figure book deal she never saw coming, and the simple practice that's replaced work-life balance for good.

Matt & Corisande, with Tamu Thomas, discuss: 

• The early warning signs of burnout Tamu ignored for years, from a three-month headache to losing her sense of joy, until her body finally shut her down
• Why she believes "achieving is healing", and how taking the action your patterns say you can't teaches your nervous system you're safe
• The visceral experience she had in a slave dungeon in Ghana, and the message from her ancestors that changed the course of her life
• Her "ancestral board meeting": calling in her grandparents, Grace Jones and Beyoncé for guidance whenever she's struggling
• Why there's no such thing as work-life balance, only harmony, and the simple script she uses to communicate that with her daughter and her team
• The six-figure Hay House book deal for Women Who Work Too Much, and the "impossible" offer that landed days after her trip to Ghana

In this solo episode,  Matt and Corisande share what really happened when they were invited to sit in the front row at Dr Joe Dispenza’s Progressive Retreat in Basel.
From the extraordinary energy of being just inches away from Joe to the moments that challenged them most, they unpack what it’s actually like to experience one of his retreats from the inside. 

This is their honest experience of sitting front row at a Dr Joe Dispenza retreat, and what happened that neither of them expected.

 Matt & Corisande discuss:

• Why they went to Joe Dispenza's 8,500-person Progressive Retreat in Basel as research ahead of their own Barcelona event
• Corisande's resistance to the work, leaving the retreat early on day one, and the avoidance she had to face to go back
• The profound meditation vision Corisande had of reality breaking down into colour, then code, then numbers
• The "plug half pushed in" metaphor Matt uses to describe what's shifted in Corisande since starting this work
• Why there's no such thing as work-life balance, only harmony, and how they communicate that with their family and team
• Dreaming smaller to manifest faster, and why MrBeast is proof that reality always surpasses your wildest expectations

This week’s guest is Gavin Ramjaun, the broadcaster and journalist with 22 years on British TV behind him: from CBBC's Newsround and Sportsround through to BBC Sport, Sky News and ITV's This Morning. 
 
Gavin talks candidly about choosing journalism against his family's wishes for him to go into medicine, and how he broke into a notoriously closed industry by writing around 100 letters a week before landing his first jobs as a runner for Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway and Gordon Ramsay's Hell's Kitchen. They get into the visualisation coaching from broadcast coach Ray Alexander that taught Gavin to mentally rehearse every show before the cameras rolled, and why he now sees that same "clarity of vision" running through every high achiever he's interviewed, from Samuel L. Jackson to Novak Djokovic, as a form of unconscious manifestation. 
 
Gavin also opens up about losing his dad and welcoming his first child within days of each other, what that taught him about purpose, and the ongoing challenge of staying present as a new parent in a world designed to pull your attention away. 

 
Matt & Corisande, with Gavin Ramjaun, discuss: 

• Writing around 100 letters a week to break into television, and the "you won't hit the target unless you take a shot" mindset that got him his first jobs as a runner for Ant & Dec and Gordon Ramsay
• The visualisation coaching from Ray Alexander that taught Gavin to mentally rehearse every broadcast before the cameras rolled, and why he calls it "unconscious manifestation"
• Interviewing A-list names like Samuel L. Jackson, Mariah Carey and Justin Bieber, and what 22 years of live TV has taught him about staying authentic on camera
• Going against his family's hopes that he'd go into medicine, and the self-belief it took to choose journalism instead
• Losing his dad and welcoming his first child within days of each other, and what that taught him about purpose
• Building Manzilla, his men's mental health platform, and the ongoing challenge of staying present as a new parent in an always-on world

 After training in traditional colour analysis, Kate went looking for something deeper, and found an advanced diploma in chroma therapy that changed the direction of her career entirely, leading her to pioneer the concept of the "Soul Shade": the one colour that reflects a person's energy, and the tool she now uses with everyone from private clients to corporate teams. They get into the "grey period" Kate went through when she and her husband lost their business and she stopped opening the curtains, the bright yellow jacket she wore to walk back into a room and relaunch it, and how a yellow vision board helped manifest a booking with the Happy Place festival. 
 
 Kate also shares why she and her husband, a green and a red, balance each other out, the colour work she's done for Chris Evans' CarFest sponsors, and what it really means to trust your instincts enough to "colour outside the lines." 
 
 Matt & Corisande, with Kate Harrison, discuss: 

• Growing up with an art teacher for a dad, and the 20 years Kate spent as a stylist working with the likes of Armani, Selfridges and Marks & Spencer
• Fronting her own TV show before training in an advanced diploma in chroma therapy that changed the direction of her whole career
• What a "Soul Shade" actually is, and how it differs from simply knowing which colours suit your skin tone
• The "grey period" Kate went through when she and her husband lost their business, and the bright yellow jacket she wore to relaunch it
• Why Kate (a green) and her husband (a red) balance each other out, and how "magnetic pairing" works with complementary colours
• Manifesting a booking with the Happy Place festival through a yellow vision board, and the colour coaching Kate's done for corporates including Chris Evans' CarFest sponsors

About Matt & Corisande Cooke
Matt is a manifestation coach, researcher, speaker and the author of Beyond Wanting: The Art of True Manifestation. For years, he has explored the intersection of manifestation, consciousness and the quantum world, helping people understand how to work with their thoughts, emotions and intentions to create their future.

Corisande is a creative director with a deeply intuitive approach to life and business. Through meditation, she often experiences remarkably vivid glimpses of what’s ahead, seeing ideas, spaces and possibilities in extraordinary detail, sometimes long before they become reality.

Together, they bring two different perspectives to Beyond: Matt’s endless curiosity for understanding how the unseen might work, and Corisande’s instinctive ability to feel and see it before it arrives.

Matt & Corisande sit down with Alex Mytton, best known for a decade on Made in Chelsea, to unpack the story behind the version of him most people have never seen. They talk about the chaos and drinking that came with a decade of reality TV, losing his mum to brain cancer in 2019, and the night he smoked DMT and was shown, in his words, "another place" entirely — an experience so far outside anything he understood that it took him years to talk about it publicly. 

They get into the telepathic message that came through during a blindfolded meditation a few weeks later, the ten days of silence he spent at a Vipassana retreat in India with no phone, no talking and, notoriously, no toilet paper, and how an anxious Instagram story asking people to join him on a walk turned into a hiking club, a series of retreats, and Frolik, his sober "conscious party" nights. 

Matt & Corisande, with Alex Mytton, discuss: 

• What a decade on Made in Chelsea taught him about fame, chaos and "the currency of drama"
• Losing his mum to brain cancer in 2019, and the grief he didn't let himself process until years later
• The DMT experience and the later "telepathic" meditation that asked him one repeated question: what can I do?
• Ten days of silence, no phone and no talking at a Vipassana retreat in India, and the moment he "got his fists back" against his own thoughts
• How one nervous Instagram story turned into a hiking club, then a series of retreats, then Frolik, his sober conscious party nights
• Why authenticity, not love, came out fastest in a Faraday cage experiment on human emotion, and what that says about being honest in public

About Alex Mytton

Alex Mytton spent nearly a decade on Made in Chelsea before stepping away from TV and the music industry after losing his mum to brain cancer in 2019. Since then he has built Alex Mytton Retreats & Wellness, running retreats around the world — including in Wales, Morocco and South Africa — combining breathwork, hiking and nature immersion, alongside Frolik, his sober, music-led "conscious party" nights, and an informal hiking community he started with a single Instagram story.

In this episode, Matt and Corisande run through every tool they personally use to manifest, meditate and reset when life throws them off track. From a five year memory journal that has followed Matt through three years of milestones, to a headband that reads your brainwaves in real time, to an eye mask that sends Corisande into a kaleidoscope of colour and an altered state, live on camera.

They also open up the Beyond community mailbox to answer questions on staying in your being state when the people around you are skeptical, learning to trust the unfolding instead of the timeline, keeping your quantum field vibrating positively when life gets messy, and handling the identity whiplash that hits once a major manifestation actually lands.

Matt & Corisande discuss:

• Why a one line a day, five year memory book might be the only form of diary either of them keeps, and how it changes the way you see your own progress
• How to stay in your being state when someone close to you is skeptical of your manifestation practice
• Why letting go of a desire is less about belief and more about making peace with time
• Inside Matt's nightly journaling ritual, and the four pages he handwrites by hand every single day
• The Muse headband that turns meditation into real-time, gamified feedback on your brainwaves
• The Illuminate Nova eye mask that put Corisande into an altered state within minutes, live on the podcast

In this episode, Matt & Corisande sit down with Kelly Gilbert, the former British Vogue beauty and health editor turned founder of The What Supp Co, to unpack a story that goes from finding out she was pregnant while sitting her A-levels at 18, to talking her way onto a fashion course with her baby in a pushchair, to becoming one of the most trusted beauty editors in the country, entirely on her own terms.

They get into the night Kelly watched someone else pitch her own business idea to the Dragons on Dragon's Den, the “override” state that took over in the weeks that followed and pushed her to finally build The What Supp Co, and how a cold email and a lot of tenacity got her products onto shelves in Boots less than two years after launch.

Matt & Corisande, with Kelly Gilbert, discuss:

• How Kelly talked her way onto a fashion course with her baby in a pushchair after missing the application deadline
• The fax machine “ransom note” and the blue CV that got her hired first in PR, then at British Vogue
• Watching someone else pitch her own business idea on Dragon's Den, and the “why can't I ever see anything through” spiral that followed
• The mystical “override” state Kelly describes taking over her actions for weeks after she first got in touch with Matt
• How The What Supp Co's vitamin patches actually work, and why she designed them to be seen rather than hidden
• Getting Protect Your Energy into Boots less than two years after launching, and the manifestation behind landing a meeting with Sephora's global VP
