This episode is recorded with therapist and spiritual life coach Kristin Gattens. Kristin is in fact MY therapist and I wanted to get her on the podcast because of her unique and innovative approach to therapy. Kristin combines her background in clinical psychology and counselling with her further training in life coaching, holistic healing and spiritual psychology. Kristin worked in a clinical setting for 15 years but as you will hear, she became aware of some of the limitations within a conventional approach to therapy for some people and set up her own practice integrating various approaches and modalities, focused on shifting people back into their power and their authentic alignment and looking for solutions within themselves.

This episode is recorded with the incredible Soph Trew. Soph was diagnosed with blood cancer aged 23. After 6 months of chemo started integrating lots of mind-body tools. What began as her own healing path has expanded over the past 8 years into supporting others to connect to self-healing abilities, to come back into own bodies and to empower themselves in their own health. Soph has trained all over the world in different mind-body-soul modalities. Her primary work is in the power of the BREATH as a transformational breath-work practitioner and more recently she has ventured into end of life care training as a death doula. We live in what Soph describes as a 'grief-illiterate culture' - as a society we are generally quite afraid of speaking about death and endings. We are afraid of letting go and this can lead us to feel isolated when we are at the end. Soph and I open up the conversation around death, encouraging you to reflect upon your own relationship with LIFE and DEATH and how BREATH serves as the ongoing space in between.

In this solo episode, I share my story of being diagnosed with PCOS having had no period in 8 months and the healing journey I took myself on to restore my cycle and balance my hormones with incredible success when no other options were presented to me. Five years on and still I have no hormonal issues or symptoms!

In this episode I am joined by Hannah Fox. Hannah is a yoga teacher and self-love coach, guiding humans on their journey home to themselves. Hannah’s mission is to share the healing magic of self-love with the world, a transformational practice rooted in yoga, grown from her own journey with healing her mental health and her relationship with her body.

I was inspired to speak with Hannah because she so authentically speaks around her experience with mental health. We share similarities in our stories and how we got into this work and she communicates and articulates so much of the human experience in such a beautiful way in her content. This episode reminded me how important it is to talk about the hard things. When we share our shadows, our fears, our insecurities, our struggles and our inner landscape, we remove the separation between us and we create more conscious and authentic relationships and feel more at home within ourselves and within the world. Radical self acceptance and self compassion is at the heart of our healing and growth.

A devotional practice to cultivate love, presence, kindness, compassion and generosity to raise our own vibration. I was reading the news last night before I went to bed and my heart felt heavy with the suffering of so many on our planet right now 🇺🇦 I wanted to create and share something from my heart to yours, to positively impact the world today and help you do the same. In situations when we are otherwise powerless to help, what we can do is take radical self ownership of how we ourselves show up in the world. Every day we get to make a conscious choice to either add to the carnage or chaos or deliver more light to where it is needed, to fill up our own cup, to connect back to our bodies and our hearts and rise in our own frequency to positively impact the collective and add to the overall sense of love within the world. Even in darkness, there is so much beauty and power and generosity in the human spirit. Every day is made up of small moments and small choices to bring more joy or love to the world, one person, one situation at a time. So let’s take some time to connect back there today.

Today I am joined by Sarah Newland, an Australian clinical nutritionist with a holistic approach using ‘food as medicine’. Gut health is at the root of our overall wellbeing and vitality. It affects most things in the body as well as the brain. In our modern world of stress and processed food, maintaining a healthy gut takes effort. So many people aren’t even aware that they are experiencing gut-health related issues nor how good they could really feel! Certainly gut health issues are no fun: bloating, IBS symptoms, anxiety, poor energy, weight issues… the list goes on. In this podcast, Sarah gives us a full gut health 101 but we also try to cut through the noise and complexity to empower you in your understanding, health and healing to take radical self ownership of your lifestyle and wellbeing, all starting in the gut.
