Learn about what it really means to prepare for the holidays — not just physically, but mentally and spiritually too. I share ways to reflect on what an ideal holiday looks like for you, recognise what might be blocking your joy, and process emotions that come up during this season.

Together, we explore mindfulness, minimalism, and emotional balance to help you create a more meaningful and peaceful holiday experience. I also walk you through practical exercises — like writing down your thoughts and practising deep emotional awareness — to help ease holiday stress and nurture your well-being.

Dive into the Spiritual Principles of Manifestation and explore how faith and manifestation are deeply connected. I talk about the common misconception that people of faith can’t believe in manifestation, introduce the idea of abundance, and share insights drawn from different spiritual and religious perspectives, including Christianity and Judaism.

I also unpack key principles such as rhythm, self-worth, asking and receiving, reciprocity, and the importance of being other-focused. Throughout the episode, I weave in personal stories and practical advice to help you understand how to manifest your desires by aligning your beliefs and energy with your spiritual practice.

Delve into how questioning one’s faith might not be a crisis at all—but rather a natural stage of spiritual and emotional growth. Drawing parallels between childhood development, attachment, and adult differentiation, I unpack how our early relationships often shape the way we perceive God, spirituality, and belonging. Through this compassionate lens, I invite you to see doubt and questioning as signs of maturity rather than failure.

The episode also connects themes of differentiation within marriage, partnership, and religion—showing how separating from old beliefs or identities can lead to deeper connection and authenticity. I also share how differentiation helps us find peace in uncertainty—turning doubt into an opportunity for emotional and spiritual maturity.

Dive into the power of surrender and the importance of allowing emotions to pass through rather than resisting them. Drawing from the three pillars of meditation—concentration, clarity, and equanimity—I reflect on how emotional openness helps release pain and restore balance.

The episode also features Rumi’s poem The Guest House, a reminder that every emotion, joyful or sorrowful, deserves to be welcomed. I guide you through a short subconscious surrender practice designed to release resistance, reconnect with love, and find peace in stillness.

Explore the concept of being “Shame Positive”—embracing shame rather than striving to eliminate it. Drawing from a recent meditation retreat with mentor Thomas McConkie, I explore how the desire to “fix” or “rid” ourselves of shame can ironically become another form of perfectionism. Through heartfelt reflection and real-life examples, I illustrate how allowing shame to exist fully within us is the very key to releasing it.

I also delve into the importance of acceptance, surrender, and self-compassion in healing. I will guide you through how moments of shame can become opportunities for growth, deeper connection, and authenticity—both in parenting and personal relationships. The episode closes with a reminder that self-help grounded in wholeness and abundance, not lack, leads to genuine transformation.

Dive into how a 7-day silent meditation retreat completely transformed my understanding of meditation. What began as a structured practice for calm and focus evolved into a deeper, more spiritual experience—one that revealed meditation as a path back to stillness, presence, and inner connection.

I share reflections from the retreat, including the practice of noble silence, the gentle teachings of meditation teacher Thomas McConkie, and how stillness itself can become a source of healing. This episode invites you to see meditation not as a routine, but as a living practice of awareness and compassion.

Dive into my personal journey as I share anticipation and thoughts about an upcoming seven-day silent meditation retreat. I talk about my current meditation practices, including key advice and personal experiences that have helped me, such as starting with short durations and gently redirecting thoughts. I also explain two meditation methods: a focused breathing technique and an open, receptive approach. You’ll find practical meditation tips and encouragement to start small and stay open to the benefits of the practice.

Explore the importance of fully experiencing pain, heartbreak, and grief rather than rushing to feel better. 

I share personal stories and reflect on the wisdom of empathy experts like Brené Brown as I explore the beauty and significance of letting ourselves truly feel negative emotions. 

I focus on what it means to sit with discomfort and welcome all emotions rather than numbing them, and how this practice can deepen both our empathy and emotional resilience.

Dive into the interconnectedness of grief and shame, particularly how shame can hinder our mourning process. With my son recently leaving for a church mission in Peru, I reflect on how our honest conversations about emotions helped both of us prepare for the separation.

I talk about the importance of recognising and processing not just sadness, but also other heavy emotions like regret, resentment, and anxiety. When I allow myself to face these feelings head-on, I notice that genuine sadness flows more freely, leading to a healthier grieving process.

I also share my thoughts on self-forgiveness and offer some practical steps I use to navigate these complicated emotions.
