  • Karma, Dharma and Acceptance: Living with Wisdom, Love and Power

    In today’s episode I’m joined again by Shomit Mitter, following on from our conversation about anxiety, to explore karma and dharma and why understanding them can bring more peace into everyday life. Shomit explains karma as action and intention, and the consequences that follow, and dharma as living in line with our duty and purpose, which ultimately means bringing more love, compassion and kindness into the world.

    We talk about looking at karma in two ways. Looking forward, it’s about acting with kindness to create happiness. Looking back, it can help us make sense of what we’re going through now, including the idea of past lives, always with compassion rather than blame. Shomit shares how acceptance is different from giving up, how it connects to forgiveness and love, and how study, reflection and meditation help train the mind. He also returns to the Tall Mountain practice to bring wisdom, an open heart and strength together, and tells a story about Mother Teresa that shows what love with power really looks like.

  • Managing Anxiety Through Breath, Movement and the Tall Mountain Meditation

    In today’s episode I talk to Shomit Mitter about anxiety, and how we can work with it both in the moment and through everyday practice. We talk about using the body to calm the mind, from slowing the breath with a longer out breath to going for a gentle walk to feel safe and gain perspective.

    Shomit then shares two deeper approaches. One is exploring the past wounds that make anxiety feel bigger today, through regression work. The other is rising above them, finding a higher vantage point through meditation and non-attachment. He guides me through his Tall Mountain meditation, a way to build steadiness, perspective and an open heart, and explains why he sees loving kindness, supported by wisdom and strength, as the truest form of high vibration.

  • Ikigai, Life Purpose and Self-Love with Audrea Turgeman

    In this episode, I continue my conversation with Audrea Turgeman about what it really means to live with purpose and intention. Audrea introduces the Japanese concept of Ikigai - the meeting point of what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. We explore how Ikigai can help bring more fulfilment into daily life, as well as the challenges of new motherhood, the courage it takes to reinvent yourself, and the importance of boundaries in protecting your energy.

    We also talk about the role of self-love in building real connection, how to respond with love in difficult situations, and why self-love is not the same as ego or narcissism. This conversation is full of wisdom and practical insights, and I hope it encourages you to pause, reflect, and choose love over fear as you move forward on your own journey of purpose.
