Hello Lovelies! And welcome back to another episode of The Illuminare Podcast! Episode 31... what a journey so far. I recently turned 29 and so for this episode, I've decided that I'm going to share with you ''29 Things That I've Leaned in Life so far...''. Some of these are fun, some are interesting, some are thought provoking, but I enjoyed this and I hope that you do too! Have a listen and let me know what you think.

Hello beautiful people of the world! How are you all doing lovelies? Here it is, episode 29 of The Illuminare Podcast, and today I am talking all about Body Dysmorphic Disorder and trying to conquer the stigma around it. Some people are still not aware of what this disorder is and how it affects those who struggle from it. I am speaking from my own research and experiences in life, and this is all that qualifies me to do so. I hope you enjoy the listen and learn something from it, and hopefully this will help someone who might be facing similar issues. As always, this is sent out to the airwaves with love... Jess x

Hello Lovelies! Finally, I have gotten to record, edit and release this months episode of The Illuminare Podcast! This is episode 28 and I thought, I can't NOT release the 28th episode on the 28th of April, so I escalated the delays and here we are. This month, I've struggled with what topic to discuss and actually recorded two previous drafts on something slightly different. It's been a tough couple of months in life, with people not accepting changes I have implemented in my own space and so I thought, what better way to approach the podcast than with something I am going through myself at the moment.

.

Change can be so difficult to go through, to accept, to acknowledge, and to implement, and I hope that this episode helps you to come to terms with changes that perhaps might be happening in your life at the moment. Albeit changes you are implementing, or changes others are implementing that affect you.

.

Change is good! There is nothing wrong with change, and we need to unlearn that negative attitude towards the ever so awful accusation of ''You've Changed''. Yes, yes I have changed and thank you for noticing, because a lot of time, effort and money has gone into my changes to become the best version of myself - My True Self! Can I get an amen?! Lol.

.

I hope you enjoy this episode, and if you do, please subscribe, like and share, and also hit that bell for notifications of new releases. You can also now rate the podcast on Spotify, so please do so to help get the podcast recognised! :) 

.

Have an awesome day, and chat to you in the next episode! <3

Hello Lovelies! And welcome back to The Illuminare Podcast! It has been an age since the last episode and I am so excited to be back behind the mic bringing you some good, soulful content. In the first episode of 2022, it's just me. This episode is just a quick opening to the new season that we are in, and I share my plans and goals for 2022 with The Illuminare Podcast. I also speak on something that is very near and dear to my heart, Mental Health and Faith, and how I've managed to cope over the last few years. I hope you enjoy it, I hope you feel inspired by it, and I look forward to bringing you new listening material in the future! Stay tuned for some exciting guests! 

Hello Lovelies! Another week, another episode and I am delighted to introduce this beautiful ray of sunshine to The Illuminare platform. This week's guest speaker is Gilly from the Instagram page @gilly_bow_wellness . I asked Gilly onto the show to speak about all things journaling, meditation and yes, SLEEP!

.

It was an absolute pleasure to talk to this beauty and learn a few tricks which I hope to implement into my own life. And I am sure, that once you give it a listen, you too will want to take notes of how to have a more effective, more satisfying sleep.

Hello Lovelies! It is with great honour I bring you this episode, to kick start The Illuminare Podcast again, with the incredible Sea Shepherd Ireland. In this episode I speak to ecowarriors Emma and Alex who are Directors of the Irish charter for Sea Shepherd Global. These guys are pioneering the change we need to make and the change we NEED TO SEE happening in our seas and oceans in order for our beautiful planet to survive. This has been such an eye opening experience for me and I know it will be for you too. So please, make sure to support their cause by following them on Instagram, keeping up to date with their actions and most importantly, educating yourself around the matter.

As always, this episode is sent out to the airwaves with Love.

Hello Lovelies! Another episode of The Illuminare Podcast is here and I am so happy to have had Katie Keane on the show. If you don't know her, you need to know her. Katie is such a positive light in this world and she strives to share that vibrancy with others. Katie is a fitness coach but has come a long way through her life to get to where she is today. From having a poor view of her self image, deflecting what she wanted to look like onto others, to now knowing what her body needs and becoming strong not just physically, but mentally, Katie is a pioneer for those of us who want to embrace a healthy lifestyle, but with the right mindset!

.

For me, training used to be a cover up for everything that was going on in my life. I had a very unhealthy relationship with the gym, going to sweat away my anxiety without realising it was just sweeping the issues under the carpet. For me, being strong, lifting heavy weights, it was all a front I had to put on to con not just others, but myself too, into thinking that I was okay. I may have been strong physically, but mentally I was weak. Now that I am recognizing the benefits that exercise has on my mental health, I am seeking out advice from not just ''body goals'' focused gym bunnies, but those who actually have a ''wholeness goals'' approach. Katie Keane Fitness is definitely the place to be for a wholeness approach and I know that once you listen to this episode, you too will want to start your own journey to having a healthy relationship with exercise.

As always, this episode is sent out to the airwaves with Love.
