If you’ve been doing the inner work but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or caught in the same patterns… this episode will help you understand why.

In this episode of Hot Flushes & Higher Self, Soraya is joined by Oxana, holistic practitioner and founder of Avidia, for a deeply insightful conversation about nervous system regulation, subconscious patterns and family systems — and how they shape our emotional wellbeing, relationships and sense of self, especially in midlife.

Many women reach a point where mindset work alone no longer creates change. This conversation explores what lies beneath — including inherited patterns, stored emotions in the body, and the deeper healing that happens when we begin to listen inward.

Oxana shares her journey into holistic healing and her work with cognitive behavioural hypnotherapy and family systemic constellations, offering a powerful perspective on why healing often requires more than just talking.

Together, we explore:

• why you can feel “stuck” even after doing personal development work
 • how nervous system regulation creates the foundation for real change
 • the impact of family systems and inherited patterns on your life
 • why midlife can feel like an initiation rather than a crisis
 • the connection between emotional patterns and physical symptoms
 • somatic and meditative practices to reconnect with your inner wisdom
 • why choosing yourself is not selfish — but necessary

This episode is a powerful invitation to look beyond the mind and begin working with the deeper layers that shape how you feel, think and live.

Soraya will be joined by a carefully selected group of experienced wellbeing practitioners, who will each hold space and guide you through a range of restorative experiences. Across the weekend, these will include hypnosis, meditation, movement, energy healing, sound and other nurturing ...

In this heartfelt and enlightening episode, Soraya is joined by Jacky Parker, founder of Body Wisdom Kinesiology, to explore how the body stores emotional memory and how unprocessed feelings can impact our physical and mental health.

Together they dive into the connection between repressed emotions, hormonal balance, and midlife transitions, and discuss how modalities like kinesiology can help women understand what their bodies are really trying to communicate.

Jacky shares her wisdom on working with the body’s innate intelligence, the emotional impact of HRT, and the power of releasing what’s been held inside — creating space for healing, clarity, and reconnection.

The books that Jacky and I discussed in this episode can be found below. Very powerful reads as they show how much repressed emotions can manifest in physical dis-ease:

Also- the guest on the Diary of the CEO with Steven Bartlett, that I couldn't quite remember (thank you brain fog!) is eminent Psychologist and Scientist Donald Hoffman. It's a fascinating interview whetre he reveals the mathematical proof we’re living in a virtual illusion, how space-time is just a headset, and why consciousness is the real code. Al lthe more reason to really embrace our midlife and lead life on our terms :)

Soraya will be joined by a carefully selected group of experienced wellbeing practitioners, who will each hold space and guide you through a range of restorative experiences. Across the weekend, these will include hypnosis, meditation, movement, energy healing, sound and other nurturing ...

In this honest and empowering solo episode of Hot Flushes & Higher Self, Soraya explores the often-overlooked reality of perimenopause — and why this phase is about far more than just hormones.

Drawing on both personal experience and her work as a clinical hypnotherapist, she shares insight into the emotional, physical, and identity shifts that can arise during midlife. From anxiety and mood swings to brain fog and a loss of self, this episode sheds light on the symptoms many women experience but are rarely prepared for.

Blending body-based awareness with a clinical lens, Soraya offers a deeper understanding of how hormonal changes impact not only physical health, but also emotional wellbeing, relationships, and sense of identity.

This episode is a powerful reminder that what may feel like a breakdown is often an invitation into a profound period of transformation.

🌸 In this episode, she explores:

✨ Perimenopause symptoms including anxiety, mood swings, and brain fog
 ✨ Why many women feel like they are “losing themselves” during midlife
 ✨ The connection between hormones, emotions, and the nervous system
 ✨ Why this phase can feel like a breaking point in relationships

In this opening episode of Hot Flushes & Higher Self, Soraya shares her personal journey through perimenopause, identity loss, and rediscovering herself during midlife.

Drawing on both lived experience and her work as a clinical hypnotherapist and RTT therapist, she explores what can begin as physical symptoms — such as night sweats and anxiety — but often unfolds into something much deeper: a profound emotional, psychological, and spiritual shift.

Together, these experiences can leave many women feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, and questioning who they are. This episode offers a new perspective — one that reframes midlife not as a breakdown, but as an awakening.

🌸 In this episode, she explores:

✨ Perimenopause symptoms and why they can feel so intense and overwhelming
 ✨ The experience of identity loss, particularly after motherhood
 ✨ Anxiety, emotional shifts, and nervous system overwhelm in midlife
 ✨ Returning to self through healing, self-development, and inner work
 ✨ Why menopause can be a powerful awakening rather than a decline
 ✨ The reminder that it’s never too late to change your life

This episode is especially for women navigating perimenopause, emotional overwhelm, or a sense of disconnection — offering reassurance, clarity, and a gentle invitation to reconnect with themselves.
