The Intuition Conversations

This week sees the start of a new series all about neurodiversity. I begin the conversation with Helen Grace McGregor who is a neurosparkly courage cultivator. Helen shares with us how she leads with intuition and what takes its place when she doesn't. We talk about being a child who was not seen or heard and how she looks back now to ask her younger self 'what do you need?' We consider the path of pursuing a diagnosis of ADHD and what the answer it gives us helps us to do. We look at the difference between Helen's wilderness years and her current third chapter and how her ADHD diagnosis has enabled her to find new ways to live and to look for validation in healthier places. This is a beautiful episode where Helen so eloquently describes her experience of being neurosparkly.
About Helen:
Helen Grace MacGregor is a Writer, Facilitator, Qoya teacher and Courage Cultivator.
She is on a mission to gently encourage soulful and neurodiverse women to honour their call to create, through permission-rich practices that satisfy their soul and nourish their nervous system.
Having created multiple programmes, written her own book and contributed to several others, Helen recently discovered that her multi-passionate, creative, should-free approach to life can be explained by the fact she’s unknowingly lived with inattentive ADHD and dyspraxia for over 5 decades.
Now, whilst editing her second book, The Midlife Awakening, Helen is combining her embodied knowledge and lived experiences into a new body of work to help women get what matters to them done. Even if like her, they’ve spent their lifetime struggling with shoulds, self-esteem and systems.
Helen believes it’s never too late to create, and your soul work doesn’t have to wait.
Which is why she’s creating introvert-friendly spaces for soulful women to embrace their enoughness and express their innate creativity, so they can flourish in a world that equates worth with productivity.
One simple, soulful, should-free step at a time.

In this week's episode I speak with Kylie Darling, an artist, yoga teacher, space holder and practitioner of embodied sexuality. Kylie is a conscious kink guide working around domination. Kylie shares with us how she went from being a yoga teacher to working within embodied sexuality. She discusses how yoga helped awaken her sense of interception and helped her find ways to calm and centre herself. Throughout her life she has held a fascination for kink and the BDSM scene. Kylie generously helps us to explore what conscious means linked to kink and we talk about leaving judgement behind, people pleasing and removing labels to give endless possibilities. She discusses the difference between producing her work for the male gaze and female gaze and how this has changed for her over time.  We consider the relationship between us and our sexuality and how she creates a container for vulnerability and helping people to feel safe. This episode will support you to explore your own thoughts around sexuality, being conscious and connected. 
About Kylie:
Kylie's work is constantly evolving and shape shifting. As a practitioner she is immersed in ritual and devotion, and as a facilitator she brings in those elements to help others connect to a feeling of wholeness. She is a believer in the magic of existence and live a slow embodied life. She'd like to consider herself somewhat of a torch bearer for those who may not feel like they quite fit in. Her offerings are listed below and too are shape shifting to match the needs of the individual. Feel free to get in touch to find out more.

In this week's episode I am talking to Nasreen El-Mariesh who shares with us her journey to psychedelics. We discuss personal empowerment and the practical application of listening to intuition daily - whether it be in whispers or a loud speaker. Nasreen clearly articulates the importance for her of sitting in circle and being in community with women. She tells us the story of how she started on the path to sharing psychedelics  with other women and her own experimentation with micro-dosing and the impact it had on her. We talk about how psychedelics can support women to connect to their intuition and move with and through emotions and feelings. This is a fascinating conversation and I am grateful to Nasreen for bringing this to the podcast.

In this week's episode, I speak with PR expert Sarah Lloyd.

Sarah talks about the importance of storytelling, sharing with us a powerful story featuring a helicopter pilot and the Grand Canyon (I won't spoil the full story here!). Her shift to working within the world of spirituality and the vulnerability that came along with it is a powerful journey and one that we can all learn from. New communities, trust, abundance, PR and learning to melt knowledge with spirituality are all features of today's conversation.

In this week's episode I talk to Ceryn Rowntree about rekindling HER stories. This episode is a fascinating consideration about the male narrative we hear throughout history. We discuss the stories we hear as young girls and the impact they have on us and how they can often be unhelpful. We discuss the HERstories that Ceryn is retelling of powerful women that have often been painted in a negative light, forgotten or stripped of their true meaning. We discuss Lilith and her powerful place in the world and Ceryn introduces us to Scota, who was introduced to me for the first time in this podcast! This conversation shows us that the stories we tell to girls and women are important can be truly powerful and life changing.
About Ceryn:
Ceryn Rowntree is a Medium, Therapist and Soul Guide aiming to spread a balanced and grounded approach to spirituality and Soul work across the Western world.
A practicing witch raised in a family as comfortable working with spirit as with the Earth, Ceryn has seen and spoken with spirits since early childhood, and trained as a Counsellor and Coach to provide support to those on their own spiritual journey.
