Spirit of the Heart

In this episode I get to sit down with Nanette Abbott, founder of New Leaf Kinesiology and writer of her book "The infinite potential of you." Together, we unpack what the 12 arch-angel archetypes are and how they can relate to you. It's really interesting stuff and made even more engaging by the charismatic and enthusiastic conversation.

In this episode, I get to sit down with Nanette Abbott, founder of New Leaf Kinesiology. I've been fortunate enough to have known Nan (as she's fondly called) for several years and she was a support to me through a really tough time. When you listen to Nan, she speaks with a gentle authority that can only be cultivated from decades of experience. Her ability to deconstruct a complex idea and apply it to the realities of everything from daily life to corporate settings really sets her apart. Beyond that, Nan has a gift for reading people and intuitively sensing energy. Her passion is in guiding people, championing their success and genuinely wanting to see her clients win. If you have started a business, or perhaps are feeling a bit stalled in an established one, then this Podcast sesh is going to really open some new doors for you. Beyond that, even if you're not focused on entrepreneurial endeavors, Nan creates a space that is open for anyone right now who simply just wants to understand themselves a little better and move toward cultivating a life that they truly love.

This episode began with the premise of tackling body image and scrutinising social media's effect on our mental health, but I went down a rabbit hole of alarming statistics that indicate we are getting fatter, sicker and more detached every decade. At the moment, 67% of Australian adults are considered overweight or obese and we have a huge reliance on the medical industry more than ever before. Australian's spent $1.9 billion dollars on health and wellness in 2022 and yet our weight is still increasing. My question became - "what is going on here?"

One of my favorite things I recently heard was from Deepak Chopra - “No-body can change their mind, but trying to change their mind. Nobody can get rid of a thought by using a thought.”

Meaning, you cannot conceptualise a thought or a feeling by giving it a label – you’re basically attempting to explain and judge whatever is underneath that.

Thoughts are messengers that are there to get our attention and raise the flag that there is something subconscious we need to acknowledge.

And our beliefs underpin so much of our behaviour and how we navigate this world. In this podcast, I get vulnerable about some of my values and beliefs and how they were shaped.

I've attracted my fair share of toxic people and looking back, it's often been because I haven't established strong enough boundaries for myself.

As a people pleaser from way back, I struggled to say no.

I wanted people to like me, and I realise now that I wanted others to love me, before I could love myself.

In this episode, I open up about the abusive relationship I was in and the toxic people who've crossed my path.

I try to draw on these experiences and reflect on what it taught me, so that I could use the lessons and tools to build my RESET program.

This episode documents the journey of maiden to mother that I have been on. I don't hold back and confront some of the difficulties I've faced to get to where I am - including the loss of my first pregnancy and navigating a second pregnancy during a pandemic.

The big question that emerges during this podcast is, what lies beyond guilt?
