This week's guest Louisa Boifuana Afeau is a self-healer, intuitive guide, and sacred space holder. Her work blends South Pacific cacao, movement, and meditation — all guided by deep inner knowing and ancestral remembrance.

She has walked the path of healing through the trauma of divorce, natural disaster, growing up with a bipolar mother, and carrying the weight of generational pain. Movement — from dance to martial arts — has been a lifeline, helping her come home to her body and reclaim her power.

Today, she gently guides others to remember their own ability to self-heal. A bridge between worlds, cultures, and generations, her presence is an invitation to reconnect, restore, and rise.

With Notting Hill Carnival set for this weekend, we have dedicated a special episode to its lesser known history. There is not enough time to feature all elements and characters of this story but hope there is enough to spark interest in your own investigation into Notting Hill's history and share it with future generations.

One of our archive episodes ‘The Windrush : The Unknown Truth’  is definitely worth a listen to after this episode, as it precedes and encompasses part of this point in history. However it doesn’t delve into the horrifically dark depths that melanated migrants had to endure in the United Kingdom at the very start of this era.
