Have you ever felt like life's unpredictable ups and downs are just too much?

You're not alone!

Welcome back to We Are Already Free, with your host Nathan Maingard. It's great to be here again after a bit of a break!

In the dance of life, we all face moments of profound joy and deep sorrow, and it can be overwhelming how quickly things swings between the highs and lows.

Imagine, for a moment, being at the peak of happiness, intertwining your life with your soulmate, only to then confront the shadow of loss, the passing of a beloved companion.

How do we find harmony in such contrasts?

The answer might surprise you.

It lies in the strings of a forgotten song, the melody of healing and self-discovery.

In this episode, I dive deep into the heart of what it means to rediscover worthiness through love, loss, and the enchanting magic of music.

Join me, as I share my own journey of transforming grief into a celebration of life and uncovering the profound worthiness within.

Together, let's embrace this journey, resonating with the ups and downs, and find our own rhythm in the music of life.

Listen now, and let's rediscover our worthiness, together.

Are you tired of playing the limiting role scripted for you by societal expectations, disconnected from your authentic self? This episode of the We Are Already Free podcast dives into the heart of such struggles, featuring the compelling journey of Sarah Vaci, an artist who challenges traditional gender norms and stereotypes.

Our conversation navigates the complex terrain of gender identity, societal roles, and the journey towards self-acceptance.

Things we cover:

• Curiosity about detransition, expressing individuality, societal taboos.
• Struggle with gender, art, and personal experiences.
• Detransitioning struggles not supported by mainstream media.
• Questioning transgender identity and seeking genuine understanding.

The loneliness that comes with awakening, healing, and becoming more authentic can be terrifying! When old relationships are still stuck in destructive, limiting patterns, it can feel like being your true self means you’re going to live a lone wolf life, and die alone someday as a mountain cave hermit! Even in a crowded room of people you want to connect with, the chats leave a bad taste in your mouth, and the desire to get out of there gives you an anxious feeling in your stomach.

Fortunately, this is normal...and there is hope!

If you yearn for authentic connections, genuine fulfilment in relationships, and effective communication that leaves you able to relax to the depths of your nervous system, but you’re finding it hard to find the people who align with your vibe, then this episode is for you.

Featuring return guest Dr Nicole LePera, The Holistic Psychologist, we dive deep into how to have more fulfilling relationships. Nicole is a best-selling author of How to Do The Work, How To Meet Yourself and How to be the love you seek. She’s the heart behind the Instagram page The Holistic Psychologist, and creator of the Self Healers Circle community. Through her platforms and books, she supports millions of people around the world in healing themselves so they can return to the love and worthiness which are their birthrights.

We chat about relationships, inspired by Nicole’s new book, How To Be The Love You Seek, so listen on to learn how you can find more of the intimacy, depth, and authenticity you dream of from your romantic, and personal relationships.

In this episode you will:

• Discover why being authentic is crucial for true connection and fulfilment.
• Understand the importance of expanding your support circles.
• Find out how to communicate effectively in relationships by considering the emotional state of all parties involved.
• Explore the concept of interdependence and how it can lead to more fulfilling connections with others.
• And, of course, so much more!
