Curious B

In this episode of Curious B, I speak with Cassandra Faye Floyd after discovering her through her 35-hour reading of The Great Cosmic Mother.

This conversation explores science vs spirituality, feminine power, patriarchy, and the deeper systems shaping human experience.The Great Cosmic Mother presents an alternative view of human evolution, tracing ideas from the “mother cell” through to modern society and what is often referred to as the “matrix” or patriarchal system.

I had heard these concepts before, but this book helped me understand them in a more connected and embodied way.

In this episode we explore:

• Feminine energy and rites of passage

• Spiritual awakening and personal sovereignty

• Science, spirituality, and ancient wisdom

• How modern systems impact human consciousness

• Reclaiming intuition, rest, and inner knowing

This is a deep, thought-provoking conversation about remembering who we are beneath conditioning and noise.

If you are interested in spirituality, conscious living, feminine wisdom, or questioning the systems we live in, this episode is for you.

Me and wearing anything wool… it used to be a complete allergic reaction nightmare - Itchy ears, runny nose, the works. Not pretty!

A few episodes back on Curious B, I shared with Laurie how this happened during my Reiki Masters training — we were laying wool blankets over each other, and there I was trying to give and receive Reiki with a streaming nose. Not exactly ideal!

In our last conversation, Laurie said: “My guides are telling me what that is” — and then left me hanging.

I had no idea that the answer would connect all the way back to my traumatic birth. When Laurie later sent me her Energetic Allergy healing meditation, it rewrote my birth story in ways I could never have imagined. The healing was so huge, so life-changing, that for the first time I could wear my grandmother’s hand-knitted wool jacket, something I never thought possible.

This is a very special, deeply personal episode. A story of birth trauma healing, spiritual guidance and energy medicine. I can’t wait for you to hear it.

Enjoy :)

This is the conversation after the red stop button — the part that was too important not to share.

In this raw and illuminating Part 2, Matt Castle returns to unpack what we didn’t get to in Part 1 — namely, the trauma that's been drip-fed through systems, media, and relationships, and how it’s scrambling our nervous systems like the antennae of a crayfish sensing danger.

We dive into:

• What trauma really is and how it embeds in the nervous system

• The crayfish analogy — and how our antennas (nervous systems) are constantly scanning for threat

• Emotional restoration, separation, and what’s happening to polarity between men and women

• The role of media, early childhood, and even Disney in unconscious trauma programming

• Why many women are describing what they want in a man... but it actually sounds like a woman

• How men are becoming more feminine, and women more masculine — and what that does to attraction

• And the question: Is it actually your partner causing the trauma? Or is it something much bigger?

We’re in the trenches. And yet, as Matt so beautifully puts it — we need each other, we need to talk, and we need to stop firing at our own.

This is real, messy, and deeply human.
Let’s talk about it.

In this powerful and timely episode, I sit down with breathwork facilitator and men’s coach Matt Castle to unpack the emotional landscape so many men are silently navigating — from separation and shutdown to healing and reconnection. If you’ve ever wondered what’s beneath the surface, this conversation goes there.

A raw and honest conversation with Matt Castle — breathwork facilitator and men’s coach — who supports men through separation and, more importantly, helps them reconnect before it happens.

In this episode, we explore what’s really going on beneath the surface for so many men today.

From father wounds and childhood trauma to unconscious programming and emotional suppression, we unpack how men are losing their sense of purpose — and how breath, story, and presence might be the way back home.

This conversation is for anyone who is a man, cares about men, or wants to better understand the masculine journey with compassion and truth.

You can’t live to your fullest potential when you're not following your soul and you're not in the right place you're meant to be” Belinda Duffy

A bit of a personal reflection on my transformation.

Oh what a journey from so burned out to being in the simply magical place overlooking the ocean.

There is just no way I would be here if I hadn’t of followed my soul, every day – ‘just guide me, just guide me’. 

To have had my son the night before he left for Auzzie reflect back the impact this shift has had on him literally brought me to tears. 

It’s so important, especially us midlife mums to connect with our passions and create a life and a busness that puts us first.
