This interview is so timely, especially as most of us in Australia/NZ are in lockdown and the impact of these lockdowns are having on our mental health, bringing about a sense of fear and anxiety around the globe.

Today’s guest doesn’t need much of an introduction as I am sure most of you will remember Seb as one of the favourite contestants from the Australian TV reality show - Married at First Sight, AKA MAFS. For those who are not familiar with MAFS, its a show following couples in this crazy experiment as they meet for the first time on their wedding day. This episode is not focusing on Seb’s experience with MAFS or relationships, but rather discussing a topic that we are both incredibly passionate and vocal about, that topic being Mental Health Awareness. I have been following Seb’s journey for over a year and what inspired me to reach out, was how raw, honest and open he is with his own personal obstacles and set backs, which has allowed the public to witness him in his vulnerability, which is not an easy thing for a man. 

We cover a lot in this episode. Seb talks openly of his low points in life,  his fears and anxieties. He shares that he spent most of his life living in his head, which caused him to suffer self worth issues. Seb talks about his self care tips and resources, which helps him manage his anxiety, CBD oil being a contributor to managing this so he's a huge advocate CBD oil.  One of his key resources, is a mindfulness and fitness program he has created, to nurture people on their journey to wellness - this is so good!

Whether you are challenged in your relationship, struggling with self worth issues or feeling depressed or anxious, this episode is a beautiful reminder that connection - whether its connecting with people OR back to yourself with movement and fitness, is a great resource to reconnect back to self love.

It was such a pleasure to connect with today’s guest, Freya. She came highly recommended by one of my dear friends Jenna, another great recommendation - thank you!

This episode is one for anyone who would like to regain trust in their body or understand how to create safety and healthy boundaries plus so much more! I also get pretty personal on this episode, sharing my own emotional trauma that I experienced in my past relationship as well as my childhood trauma and what helped me come into self love and compassion.

Freya is a trauma informed Coach and is incredibly passionate about human freedom and working with women so they can be trauma informed and live life feeling empowered, sexier and experience pleasure.  Going from being so open and connected to the magic of life to freeze and closing down was devastating but Freya shares very openly about her trauma journey and how this led her to being of service.

You are going to love this interview. I resonated so much to what Freya shares, especially speaking about people chasing these peak state experiences. How common for people to seek high explosive state experiences then totally crash afterwards and how this is being glamorised in the spiritual community and transformational world  - this is so good! Freya talks about the different traumas one can hold - this is so good!  Freya offers great tools and resources that will help you support your nervous system.

She talks about what this course will address, especially understanding why you may freeze, shut down or become numb and how you can open again  with a lot of trust and safety. Its about pleasure, self worth, boundaries, forgiveness and self trust.

This episode is  worth the wait folks!

I am really excited to bring you Jaguar, a man that came highly recommended to me and after this interview, you will understand why. This conversation is a reminder that everything exists within, if only we get out of our way. The body is the subconscious mind and Jag frees people from the tight constraints causing suffering, bringing the unconscious into conscious so we can create space and freedom within.

Jag is a man who helps and supports people who are suffering trauma, particularly sexual trauma. He helps people identify their core trauma/s and break the patterns that hold them back, by dissolving the energy which has been trapped. He helps people to love themselves by removing whats in their way - the self doubt, self hatred and victimisation so people can realise the true essence of what they are, which is LOVE and love is acceptance.

After retreating into what was a deep path of soul searching, Jaguar decided to change his environment and moved to a farm in the mountains in New Zealand. During this time he decided to take a new path and explore becoming a therapist to help people work through the very thing he had walked himself. Jag discovered  at the root core of everything that guided his repetitive patterns, his behaviours, sabotage, a deep lack of fulfilment, and everything that was keeping him stuck, was a core wounding of emotional trauma. 

Jag keeps things very reals and offers some great insights, advice and understanding of physics and vibration especially around the experiences we keep attracting again and again until we break the pattern AND how we you can do this. Taking full responsibilities for your feelings you become powerful in every situation. So many great tools he uses to address trauma and release trapped emotions and energy, which he shares in this interview. 

Powerful interview with this beautiful man.

I am really excited to introduce my friend Tash, also known as Dr Tharshini. Tash is a traditional Chinese Medicine Doctor, a Global Energetic Specialist, Womb Medicine Teacher and the founder of Fertile Seeds of Life.  

In this interview, Tash openly shares how she lived life feeling unworthy and disempowered because of her sexual abuse and trauma. However, through her own womb healing journey and spiritual awakening, she stepped into her feminine power to help others feel empowered and has healed many women with their suffering.  During her spiritual awakening, she was downloaded the gift of seeing light codes and DNA activation - this is so fascinating. 

Tash has a deep passion in educating women and teens, on the knowledge of the womb, through the menstrual cycle. Her love in this field to support our young girls, has now led her to work with an orphanage, creating a 6-month program to teach our young girls about womanhood, this is amazing. Why her 6 week Womb Wisdom and Menstrual Cycle Masterclass program is a gift for women of all ages, helping women to bridge western, eastern and energy medicine together.

I adore this woman and I am so grateful for her passion for life and being the divine channel of love, for the creation of a new awakened and healthy generation of children.

If you are curious and fascinated by the intrinsic beauty of Shibari, then you are going to love this interview with my dear friends, Avalon & Jenna. 

Shibari, also referred to as Japanese Rope Bondage, is a unique, intimate & sensual art form that originated in Japan. It was originally developed as a form of capture, torture or presentation of prisoners by the Samurai but it has developed over time into a seductive and sensual rope craft. Shibari is about the intimate connection with the rigger and receiver - which Avalon explains in our conversation.

Seduced by the sensual skill and artistic expression of Shibari, Avalon has developed his own distinctive style of tying and he gets to share this on stage, with his beautiful partner, Jenna. When you see these two performing, they take you on a magical journey and you witness the art of surrendering.

Shibari literally translates to “to tie” or “to bind,” and it involved trying intricate and beautiful knots and patterns used to restrain and give sensation to the body. 

In this interview, Avalon & Jenna cover all the curiosity or misconceptions associated with Shibari. Avalon talks through the history, why people are drawn to this Japanese rope bondage and the importance of trust in your rigger and the power of surrendering to rope.

Avalon & Jenna are all about spreading their rope love within the community by holding events, workshops and one-one sessions.  Jenna talks about her latest project that is about to be launched.

Todays guest is the beautiful Chad Charles. I had the pleasure of working with Chad a few months ago. He held a sacred online breath-work session, after I had undertaken a deep journey with 5-MeO-DMT, also referred to as Toad or Buffo. This style of medicine is being touted as a healing modality for people who suffer trauma, depression or PTSD. I read somewhere that 5-MeO-DMT profoundly changed Mike Tyson’s life and he's never been the same. I can relate to this as my journey with this medicine has impacted me so much that I was able to heal a lot of past trauma and anxiety issues. 

Chad talks so eloquently of the curiosity that people have with 5-MeO-DMT and why its so effective and different to plant medicine. He brings so much into light and shares why people are gravitating towards this medicine but warning people to be more discerning, ensuring they do their research and inform themselves with the practitioners who offer this medicine. 

Chad immerses himself in the world of therapy, whether its psychedelic and somatic or neo-shamanism. He leans into non-dual teachings, transpersonal psychology, body-based therapeutic approaches, and mindfulness practices to bring about a holistic approach to the body and the mind. He leads people to trust in the wisdom of their breath or body so that can surrender into what is, whether is erotic body work or a breah-work session. 

This interview is a goodie, so many great nuggets and insights that will no doubt have you wanting to explore more deeply the power of breath-work & 5-MeO-DMT.

This is a powerful conversation that will no doubt have you rethink the term ‘toxic masculinity’ or the meaning of a 'real man'. I have been following Tyran's work for a while and he recently grabbed my attention with a few controversial posts that resonated with me SO of course I had to get him on the show. 

Tyran is many things but to me, he is a man who is shameless in his authentic expression. He is sexy, passionate, raw, honest, triggering, vulnerable, strong and penetrates life with his energy. You won't find him hiding in the shadows, he is quite the opposite. He stands out and up for what he believes in. Tyran is not afraid to use his voice and speaking his truth is very much a big part of his personality - as you will find out in this very raw and honest conversation.  

Tryan’s journey is to understand the truth of himself - dissolving many layers of his identity of what a man is. You will find out why he gets so worked up and annoyed with the term toxic masculinity or awakened man - this was a big take away for me! 

We cover the controversial posts he shared on social media and he clarifies what he really meant by ‘men get raped too’. Why are most men boys in the bedroom?? This is juicy and Tyran talks of how boys are not initiated or educated to healthy sexuality,  instead turning to porn, which is desensitising them. We cover so much in this conversation -boundaries, consent, shame blaming, self love practices, healthy sexuality,  plant medicine and why people should invests in a coach or a mentor.

A big part of the journey OR the work is about reconnecting to your sexual expression and heart. Let go and surrender to how you can penetrate life with your sexual energy - your life force.

I am excited to bring you this very heartfelt and incredibly inspiring interview with a man I have known for many years. I recently reconnected with Mark, a reputable Teacher who is known for his successful yoga studios in Melbourne where he offered yoga teacher trainings, workshops and for people to escape on his retreats to deepen their meditation & yoga practice. 

Two years ago, in the midst of Melbourne's harsh lockdowns, Mark realised he wasn’t living his life in truth. He sold his yoga studio, left Melbourne and took himself into another form of isolation. He moved away from any distractions life  offered, lived in the rice fields in Bali then returned home and lived in the forest in NSW.  He explored the depths of his being, confronted his darkness & allowed the teachings to fall away, so he could become his own practice. This truth revealed was the medicine he needed so he could re-emerge with deeper connection to himself and life. This is a beautiful interview and Mark walks us through his journey to know thyself and what is alive for him right now. He openly shares his personal journey that saw him re-invent himself and talks about his exciting offerings especially The Oneness Foundation, his new baby and an exciting mens 200 hour YTT which will be offered in 2023.

A raw, open and fun interview with Mark. So many powerful nuggets in this conversation, especially the reminder - don't be afraid to sit with the teacher within - to truly know thyself.

Today’s guest is with the very sensual, modern day Tantrika and spiritual seeker, Laura Deva. Laura is dedicated to the path of embodiment and believes that through accepting all of yourself you can let go of shame and embrace your full pleasure. One of the biggest pleasures in life is the pleasure of food and how we feed our body and soul. 

I am really excited about today’s conversation because its a topic that many of us secretly suffer from or experience at some stage in our life.... that is our relationship with food and eating disorders. Its the hard truth that many of us ignore or do not talk openly about because of the deep shame that is associate to this. There are so many collective conditionings around food and so many mix messages. We are constantly told what we should be eating and what we shouldn’t be putting in our mouth - it can be so dam confusing and if you are like me and have tried it all, going vegan, paleo or keto, you probably have come to the conclusion that it can become consuming, self destructive and it can create an addictive behaviour.

Laura shares of her journey and relationship to food and why fasting has been incredibly healing for her to truly come back to self love - bringing so much awareness to whats underneath to our choice to eat or not to eat. We ARE what we eat so not being aware of our eating patterns is not being aware of ourselves. She shares that most of our eating patterns are emotional and fasting allows you to connect to your body in a very deep and profound way, trusting to the body wisdom.  

“I EAT LOVE” is a program for anyone that is willing to bring awareness and love to their eating patterns. The intention to this program Laura has created is not to follow any diets or instructions given by her, but to find your own by collectively bringing more awareness in your choices of eating or not eating.

This is such a great conversation, making peace with your relationship shame to your eating patterns or beliefs. Such a great reminder to check in with yourself and the wisdom of our body.

This is such a juicy interview and Jake was more than ready to go straight to the depth of his work and remove any stigma or shame that is attached to what he does. Yes, he totally owns what he does and is proud that he is helping women to feel more confident, desired and empowered. 

We cover so much in this interview. All the questions you have ever wanted to ask or thought about but never been in a position to ask - don't worry ladies, I have it covered. 

You are you going love Jake and understand why be is so desired by many woman. What I love about him the most, apart from his striking good looks and fricken hot accent, is his down to earth personality and his tenderness.

After years of internal numbness, Bonnie took herself on a journey of discovering the magic of her yoni. This journey has led her to be of service to many women worldwide. Bonnie is an intimacy educator, somatic sexologist, bliss seeker, speaker & writer. She is also the founder of a women’s pelvic wellness modality, called 'Yoni Mapping Therapy'. If you are not familiar with the term yoni, it is the Indian word for vagina. 

Bonnie is a woman who is obsessed with the power of pleasure and inspired to teach other women how they can connect to their pleasure potential. 

An expert in the field of women’s pelvic bodywork, Bonnie has been featured in the US Sexual Health Magazine, Australian Yoga Journal, Elephant Journal and other publications as well as summits.

Bonnie developed ‘The Bliss Method’, a six month intensive training in her method of Yoni Mapping Therapy, so she has a number of amazing women from all over the world who are fully certified Yoni Mapping Therapists! How cool is that! 

Bonnie shares why its so important for women to connect to their pleasure and finding this in your every day life AND it doesn’t have to be sexual. She teaches women to finding pleasure through the simplicity of life - being conscious to how you move through life and connect to yourself, which then leads to the connection to your sexual pleasure.

We cover a lot in this interview, so much valuable advice and Bonnie also recommends the best pleasure toys for women and why.  I loved hearing her view about the yoni and vagus nerve connection. The vagus nerve runs the whole length of our spine and ends in the cervix so it plays a key role in the experiencing of pleasure. She talks about how consciously connecting to our vagina, women begin to honour their body and able to set clear body-boundaries - this is such reminder for women who have difficulty using their voice or speaking their truth.

Today’s conversation is a topic I have wanted to cover for a long time, especially as I support men with their journey into self love and sexuality. Well, I finally found the right person to discuss all things related to porn and sex addiction. Today I have the pleasure to speak to Craig Perra, a man who is transforming the lives of men struggling with sex and porn addiction through The Mindful Habit® System, a program created by Craig.

Craig openly shares of his background, how he used porn and other sexual behaviors to escape, numb, and cope. Despite these problems, he managed to create a very successful career in business and law. But, he had a secret and this secret was destroying his life because he was so consumed with sex. He hit rock bottom and in this rock bottom, he made the decision to turn his life around.

Craig is incredibly passionate about his work and knowing that he has created a program that works. He is giving back the lives to men who have tried everything, empowering them to break free of compulsive sexual behaviour.  

He speaks about habits and this being a big part to recovery. His habits, that he used to define as being a disease, Craig learnt they was serving a purpose. All those bad habits were meeting his needs in his life. What he teaches men to do, is meeting their needs in a healthy and constructive way - the system he has created.

So many great takeaways, you are going to love Craig! He truly in an inspiration.

Craig offers plenty of free resources so check him out!

Today's episode is one you definitely don't want to ignore!
I invited back to the show, two of my friends and men that I respect and regard, especially with the work they do in the community. What I love most about these men, is they keep things very real and relatable. They openly discuss all things men related but also offering some encouragement to other men to get off their seat and step into their truth.

This is the 3rd time Dan has been on the show. Dan, AKA The Spiritual Tradie has always been a great supporter of my work and always a hit with my listeners because of his background and openly being vulnerable with sharing of his suffering, living a destructive life to finding inner peace through the lends of meditation. Luke came onto the show a few months ago with his divine counterpart, Heidi and they shared of their sacred union. They share of their hardship and and healing journey they went on individually before their sacred union was orchestrated from the universe.

This interview is not only entertaining but its very heart felt and a beautiful conversation with men who openly share some of their fears, resistance and impact of not living in their truth and sugar coating reality until they got real with themselves. They talk about what practices and tool helped them overcome some major heart breaking obstacles and how to support yourself when you are going through this transition.

You know that feeling when you start dating someone who you share that intense physical chemistry with? That passion fuelled connection that feels incredible and its like a drug - you just can't get enough of that person...

How often have you allowed this chemistry to lead the relationship, to find yourself emotionally unsatisfied, knowing deep down you are not compatible outside of the bedroom. What would happen if you actually got to know someone before you dived into their pants. Could you hold out from having $ex before marriage? Well, today's guest, Rob Kowalski will have you thinking about this and so much more. 

I recently connected with Rob, a man who certainly grabbed my attention because of his strong beliefs and values when it comes to holding out from having $ex before marriage. Yes, you heard that right! Saving yourself for marriage - AKA the one.  Rob is the author of ‘The Truth About $ex’ & ‘Why Waiting Works’. He is also the Founder of CityFam, a non-profit organization whose mission is, changing lives through the power of community.

Rob is a self-proclaimed reformed bad boy, once the biggest stripper and nightclub promoter in his hometown of Baltimore. He had a radical life-changing encounter with Jesus that transformed him forever. In his book, Why Waiting Works, he explains ‘the $ex trap’ and how the problem starts with the differences in what men are looking for versus what women are looking for in dating and relationships. 

This is a very fascinating interview and Rob breaks it down for you today. He shares his views around $ex and how it gets mistaken for love because of the hormone and chemical we release, known as oxytocin, AKA the love hormone, which facilitates bonding and connection. Rob believes that once we release this hormone, before you know it, we are stuck or connected to someone. Oxytocin affects males and females differently and Rob is able to explain this, especially how our brains are wired differently SO rushing into $ex too quickly with someone will make you miss red flags with people. This is such a great and fun conversation. 

This interview definitely got me thinking and reflecting on intimacy and $ex during the early phases of dating. A few takeaways from this interview and I wonder if any of my listeners could put this into play? If so - I wanner here from you!

Todays episode is with a man who is making a huge impact in our community. Stef is incredibly dedicated and passionate in helping people to heal, by connecting to their shadow or trauma in a very deep way. There is no messing around with his work, he dives in deep to break down peoples trauma/s so the unconscious patterns are no longer running their lives. Stef is committed to helping people to remove the shame, blame or guilt that is attached to their identify so they can live in freedom and the fullness of their potential. He does this by providing a safe container to explore parts of themselves which they have been neglecting for a long time.

We cover so much in this interview! Stef walks us through his personal journey to facing some of his darkness in life, periods where he felt so overwhelmed that he contemplated ending his life. This is such a raw conversation and he doesn't not hold back. He talks about being unfaithful in his past relationship and how that brought the hard truth to his behaviour and action to light, which was one of the reasons he needed to seek change and face his shadow. This set Stef on a quest to examining his masculinity and sexuality and on this journey, he met Teachers who helped him break down the barriers so he could expand and deepen his connection within. 

What lights Stef up and keeps him inspired, is relationships. Diving into masculine and feminine dynamics and how it impacts the way we treat, think and feel about ourselves and how we treat others. It's looking at the relationship we have with our romantic partner and to everything that is of significance or value and meaning in our lives. For Stef, its about how you can optimise the areas of our lives to create harmony within relationships and allowing life to unfold and be created in a magical way, being the best version of YOU.

About a year ago, I had the pleasure to connect with a powerhouse spiritual goddess, a woman who has been incredibly influential in my life. Sandra (who I call Sam) is my coach, psychic guide and healer. She helped me to come back to equilibrium and reconnect to myself on a deeper & spiritual level. 

You know that feeling of stuckness, can’t seem to break free from old patterns, limiting beliefs or step into your light? Or, perhaps you can’t shake that dark cloud over your head or you feel there is some bad energy field around you - like a bad spirit or you feel cursed. Or, maybe you need some direction in life, someone that can help pave the way for you. Well, this is where Sam comes into the picture! Working with a wide range of clients from A list celebrities and corporate leaders to sensitives, healers and Light Workers, Sam embodies the ability to give clear guidance and make life changing transformations through the Quantum Field. 

Sam has a mainstream background in Psychology and Counselling but she was born with a gift. This gift enabled her to explore life with curiosity and channel her energy & healing abilities through her work, which is an integrated healing modality. She is spiritual alchemist - referred to as a Mystic, Sharman or Psychic. 

In this conversation, Sam shares how she was born seeing spirits and the support came from her spirits. She also shares how she would get attacked by bad spirits & energy forces when she tried to do energy clearing or confront bad demons - this was so interesting to hear!

She read tarot cards from the age of 14 and always knew that her connection with other dimensions, the spirit world and her healing gift was going to be a way to serve others, to shine her love & light to those who found their way to her.

We go deep into her work, from quantum fields of energetics, playing with spirit guides, reading energy & tarot cards to walking the path of a conscious leader, it’s very obvious that Sam has a genuine love for people.

Today I have a fun conversation with Australian’s most loved & followed dating expert & coach....Mark Rosenfeld.

Mark began work on Make Him Yours in 2014, sharing what he learned to help women stop the frustrating patterns in their dating lives and start attracting the men they deserve. Since launching, he’s been featured on News.com.au, Style Magazine, Thought Catalog, Elite Daily, The Good Men Project and more, and his content online has been viewed more than 10 million times.

Mark shares very openly about his journey to struggling with his own shyness throughout high-school and early years of college. He turned things around in 2009 and was soon teaching confidence in life and dating to other shy men.

This continued until 2011, when he took a job as a professional stripper....this is such a great story!

From stripper, to graduating as a Veterinary to coaching men & now working with women. Mark helps women to achieve confidence to date, break old patterns or beliefs when it comes to self-worth or attracting the wrong person. He offers unique coaching programs to help women to step into the love life they desire. 

How do we survive modern dating? 

With so many rules when it comes to dating and with dating apps taking over….how do you stand out from the crowd?

These are some of the questions I throw out to Mark. We cover so much in this interview - this is a conversation you don’t want to miss!

On his channel, Mark shares everything he knows about men so that you can understand their behaviour a little better when it comes to dating and relationships.

Mark’s passion is empowering women to take control of their love life and find the person of their dreams. In his video, Mark talk about everything from what to txt a guy, live examples of what to actually say to a guy on a date, even what to do if a guy starts ignoring you. Every video Mark uploads contains the knowledge and advice that he has gathered from coaching women (and men!)

This is a love story. Not just any love story....

I have the pleasure to share the story of two people who take you through their personal journey. We cover so much in this chat. They get pretty raw & honest about their past, the suffering - spiralling into depression & hitting rock bottom. Hitting this low point was the pivotal moment to waking up to life, stepping into truth & alignment to find love. This is the story of divine union.

Luke talks about his awakening - how his suffering was an opportunity to step into light by confronting his fears & unhappiness head on. He let go of everything that was not serving him, leaving his 10 year marriage, his business & relocating back to Melbourne. Luke finally got real with himself & in this ‘getting real, he was supported & directed to his true purpose, being of service as a healer, astrologer & co creating with Heidi his beloved.

Heidi is highly regarded in our community. She holds space as a yoga & dancing teacher. More recently, running regular Kirtan events with her beloved Luke. She shares of her background, training as a dancer & her injury that forced her to get onto the mat again & through yoga, Heidi found the medicine that helped her find space & self compassion. She openly speaks of trying to take her life at 17. This darkness came in & out of her life but it shined the light to working towards her dharma, her purpose in life & how reconnecting to her sweet voice was the secret recipe in her healing journey.

With most love stories, there is always a happy ending. The were brought together on Bumble! They knew instantly when they held each other, that first embrace , it was love.

I recently reconnected with a man I met a few years ago. I reached out to him after watching a video he shared to his clients. A video that captured his rawness & vulnerability, a man who broke down in tears & allowed himself to be seen in this light. It brought up a lot for me emotionally so I contacted Godwin, wanting to hear his story.

Godwin’s business, Godwin Charli closed the doors to his successful business in September 2017. He recently has made a come back by reinventing himself. 

This is a story of a courageous man who rebuilt his brand & life after suffering a break down. He lost everything - his business, broke up with his fiancé & questioned his identity. He was forced to stop, reflect & confront his fears. This meant connecting to his anxiety & depression with a lot of compassion. He shares of the challenges he faced in his personal & business life. This struggle was the gift he needed to face one of his biggest obstacles in his life, to create space & opening to becoming the human he is today.

He talks about the resources & his self love rituals which help him reconnect to himself & life, bringing him happiness & joy. Whether it’s with the guidance of his coach, regularly meditation practice or the men’s group he attends every week = non negotiable!

This is such an inspiring story of Godwins rebirth journey. Some of you maybe experiencing what he has gone through, so I hope this offers you hope, faith & some helpful resources to help you come back to balance & harmony.

Devin is a man who is incredibly connected to life & all the beauty she presents us, enabling him to be of service to Mother Nature & making his heart of service by helping others to reconnect to their themselves by reclaiming their sexual power and reclaiming that sovereignty in their sexual connection. He a conscious man who is encouraging & inspiring others to live consciously, by returning back to the land, the plants, the inserts and nature.

Brought up in Maui, Devin shares of his journey to growing up amongst the Hawaiian people, the racism he experienced which he prefers to as reverse racism. He was made fun of and teased. This had such an effect & impact on him but through a transformative experience in his 20’s, he started to work through this. Through his healing process, this was the start of living life from his heart - allowing himself get raw and open, being in his full vulnerability.

He talks about the sacred sexuality retreats and workshops he offers, what you can expect. Whether its a sacred space for men to come together, in a space that is safe for men to be men OR for couples to celebrate each other and let the creativity of life, the feminine to come into free flow, to play and dance together.... so juicy! 

We have such an interesting conversation on the struggles men face and what holds them back. The suppressed emotions and how this controls them. The shame around their sexuality and how sexual education has conditioned their sexual blueprint - this is a great chat around the shame and guilt men hold onto.

Devin is a man of purpose, living his life being of service. You will love his open and grounding energy and I am sure, after listening to this interview, you will feel encouraged to engage life consciously, with more awareness - to what you eat, how you play, how you connect to yourself or others so you can reclaim your sovereignty.

Such a pleasure to interview Dharma Love. I have been following Dharma for some time, she has a huge presence on social media but what I love most about Dharma, is her magnetic energy.  Dharma is all heart energy, no ego - exquisite feminine power! This is what attracted me to her, her sensuality and love for life - especially being of service and sharing her gifts to those who work with her. 

So who is Dharma? She is a spiritual healer and teacher - working with souls all around the world, bringing her light, love and energetic healing for those that seek her help.

I ask her about the tools and techniques she can offer someone who is very heady or experiencing anxiety and can’t be present to oneself or life. She takes us through a beautiful guided meditation, an amazing energy balancing and heart opening practice that changed my energy vibration!  

I asked her what was happening with the collective, especially people in relationships.  She was able to offer SO MUCH clarity around this. We, as a collective are experiencing deep healing. In this process of healing people are feeling confused and fearful. She said we are going through huge transformation that is allowing us to work with what needs to be addressed and healed.

Today’s guest is someone I had on the show a few months back, Tim Morrison. Due to the Melbourne community encouraging him to bring his energy and the wonderful gift in holding space for a 3 hour immersion into the power of journeying with ceremonial cacao, breath and sacred sounds, called Sacred Cacao - Soul Flight.

Tim covers a lot in this episode - why his cacao ceremony is such a gift for anyone who wants to experience the inward journey using the breath to open up the gateways of receiving the medicine of cacao and sound to carry you through to experience cacao in her fullness. Such a heart felt experience as cacao is the medicine for the heart- reminding you to walk that path of that heart so you can open yourself up to love. 

Event Details:

SACRED CACAO - SOUL FLIGHT

3 hour immersion into the power of journeying with Ceremonial Cacao, our Breath and Sacred sounds.

A gentle heart expanding ceremony guided by the power of sound. Sacred sounds guide you to release, realign and anchor who you are.

Cacao wishes to bring you back into harmony. To nourish and nurture the fullness of who you are.

Cacao was originally used by the ancient Mayan shamans to journey between the worlds, lifting the veil over consciousness. Our ceremonial cacao is infused with spirit, inviting you on a journey inwards to open your heart and remember who you truly are.

Join the experience to discover that there is far more to consciousness then what resides in the physical body.

Are you ready to reconnect to feel the depth of who you are?

To truly feel your soul pulsating inside of you?

Together we sit in ceremony, we connect and we journey into our heart space. Surrendering gently into the process and enabling the sacred sounds to wash through us transmuting all that no longer serves.

Sound has the potential to dissolve and transmute any negative or heavy energies as the frequences if the Sacred sounds will bring us up into a higher vibrational state and in doing so all that does not match this, will naturally fall away.

The great gift of combining Ceremonial cacao and Sacred sounds is that they are both high vibrational energy tools.

They both enable you to release, realign and rejuvenate with ease and grace. They both gently carry away what no longer serves from a deep internal journey.

As we drop deeper into ourselves the emotions are simply carried through the sounds and we relax deeper and deeper, with no need for the body to activate a cathartic release.

Ceremonial cacao and sounds are a deeply meditative, nurturing and nourishing journey.

Cacao journeys us to the door of our heart, allowing us to step through, discovering all of its mysteries, ready to embrace the space of openness of pure love. We journey together to a spiritual dimension.

This special event will incorporate ceremonial cacao, vibrational medicine, meditation, breath and a shamanic soundscape taking you on a journey back to yourself.

Suitable for all levels and backgrounds. You will be provided with a deeply transformative and supported space and tools to take home with you to use day to day.

Today’s guest is Jessica Harvey, a woman who is incredibly passionate in working and supporting men around their shadows and $exuality. She believes our suffering comes from shaming our desire, disconnecting from pleasure, and lack of relational tools. Most of us were given zero understanding of our emotional world, our nervous system, how to communicate, and how to self- and co-regulate. 

You are going to love this interview with Jessica. She refers herself as a geek by nature because of her scientist background but after years in the lab, she was miserable. Jessica shares her story from scientist to 'Shadow & $exuality' Coach and why its her passion to be a guide for men to achieve insight into what they really want, to understand how women might be perceiving them, and to transform stuck patterns into intentional relating skills that really work.

Jessica's Bliss Science program for men has emerged from all of the work she has done with hundreds of men in workshops, 1:1, and online programs over the past 8 years. She has spent many years studying with some of the most regarded and respected tantra and relationship teachers out there. Teachers such as Layla Martin, John Wineland, Christopher Wallis and Paul Muller-Ortega. Jessica and I crossed paths while we were both studying our $ex, Love & Relationship Coaching program ​under Layla Martin, many years ago.  It was great to reconnect and deeply acknowledge her for the work she is doing with men. 

Some of the juicy things she covers in our conversation:

• Why withholding ejaculation is a powerful practice but not necessary
• How a man can get in touch with his pleasure levels, inside their own body
• What does sensuality empowerment look like for men
• How can a man receive the love and desire he craves from his partner in a way that doesn’t come across needy 
• A women desires her man to lead and take initiative but why do men hold back OR don't know how to stand in their masculine power and lead - this is so good!
• Importance of polarity

What is twin flames? Twin flame relationships are the most powerful ones you can experience in this life time. If you are like me and fascinated by this concept or want to know more, Holly is your lady. She is deeply passionate and has been guided to support twin flames on their journey of healing. She explains the difference between soul mate and twin flame. The twin flame being our true energetic counterpart. You know when you have met your twin flame, the connection is undeniable, on all levels - spiritually, sexually, physically and emotionally. It can be very intense when you meet your twin, the connection can be challenging as you enter a purification process, which causes a lot of triggers for the healing process to begin for cleansing. However, when you have purified your energies, uplifted and you are both in alignment - meaning you are both in harmony and balance, its magic. The the divine love connection! 

Holly shares the journey the twins go on, independently and together.  How you know when you have met your twin, the profound connection you share and the purpose of the twins.

This conversation is soooo good!

Shannon was a huge influence in my spiritual journey, when I first became connected to the podcast world - many moons ago. His podcast - SoulFeed was my weekly therapy fix. The topics he covers and the guests he interviews on his show are inspirational global leaders such as Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Sean Corn, Gabby Bernstein and so much more!

Whether it's through his life coaching, his yoga teachings or his online course - ILLUMINATE Your Purpose.

Shannon doesn't hold back in our interview today. 

Exploring the truth - this is a big conversation. The spiritual practice of living in faith and our purpose. The process of connecting within and outward, taking responsibility to how we show up in the world, the way we choose to speak, behave and treat others. 

He tells it how it is, sharing his journey to going deeper, beneath the surface and getting real with himself. He speaks of the real problems we are facing in society, ignoring the people who are real victims, the disadvantaged and how we ignore this by playing into the system - such a great conversation! 

Shannon shares of his addiction, addiction to social media. This saw him take a 40 day social media detox and revealing the impact it had on his life. He speaks of the learnings and living his life authentically, NOT giving a big F**K to the superficial pressures of society so he can live in alignment to truth and his purpose. 

We get intimate about his own experience around sexuality and how he is trying to integrate this into his leadership. 

So much more we cover - it's a delicious and very heart felt chat and no doubt you will feel into his divine energy and love.

I get to discuss a topic that I have been wanting to talk about for some time, ever since I became curious with my sexuality a few years ago. I admit, I went through a phase in my life, exploring whether I could enter an open relationship. I did a lot of research into polyamory, I spoke to friends who had open relationships and I had flings with men who held multiple partners. The more dropped into the rabbit hole, the more questions I had. The first big questions I had to ask myself, was WHY? Why did I feel the need to have an open relationship? Was this my nature OR was I just wanting to experiment with myself, test my values and belief systems around monogamy. 

Today, you get to listen to a great conversation with a women who is very insightful around this topic - non-monogamy.  Wilrike Sophia is a woman who has been exploring her sexuality with open relating - non monogamy. She talks openly of her journey to opening her heart and arms to many partners while in a long term relationship, the father to her children. They embarked on a journey of personal growth - sharing herself with many lovers. This offered her a lot of freedom, variety, excitement and also an opportunity to heal her limiting beliefs and fears that became triggered along the way....

Wilrieke believes anyone can have an open relationship, if you willing to be curious, explore yourself, have flexibility and be prepared for not having a format. Unlike monogamy, there is no format because when you leave the standard paradigm of relating, there is no guide book. There is no one way of doing things so you want to ensure you do this in a healthy way, knowing yourself really well - being able to know when you feel unsafe - communicating your fears, boundaries or putting an agreement in place with your partners.  

She speaks about the difference between our comfort zone and terror zone - knowing when you are in your window of tolerance and the window of your comfort zone - how we need to have a lot of compassion so we are not pushing our nervous system.  This is such a goodie!

So many great tips and advice to ensure you feel safe and ready to explore open relating.

Tim was dedicated to his career as a Thai boxer, competing at high level which saw him win light weight titles, fighting within Australia, Russia and Thailand. However, after a severe career ending neck injury, Tim went into his own deep transformational space. Coming from a life of passion and purpose, to a dark depression which saw him embark on a powerful journey of doing plant medicine and shamanic practices. He received the messages from spirit to guide him to this path of being of service to others, through his workshops, retreats and cacao ceremonies.

Tim has a passion for guiding men to dive deep into reconnecting with their inner warrior - their innate masculine essence, through sacred sexuality and helping them to embody balance through their primal warrior energy in a healthy way,  connecting back to earth - back to their roots so they can lead from their heart. Men are able to connect and release suppressed fear, aggression or emotions they have suppressed and help them unleash their emotions, holding space in a safe container so they can do this in a controlled and healthy way. 

Tim shares how powerful the Cacao plant is, an opportunity for people to connect to spirit. He walks through what you can expect at one of his cacao ceremony’s and the beautiful messages these ceremonies can bring for someone, if you come into an intention of receiving. 

You are going to love hearing of Tim’s journey to walking the path of his inner warrior and be totally inspired by his dedication to helping others step into this path too.

Todays guest is the magical Pussy Queen, Keeley Olivia. 

Keeley and I studied together last year and I have been watching her journey unfold with a lot of creativity, energy and passion. She is fearless and after watching her TEDx talk - Masturbation Is The New Meditation, sparking a new wave of Sexual Revolution, I thought this was the perfect opportunity to get her onto the show.

Keeley refers to herself as a 'Pussy Connoisseur', on a mission to revamp the sexual experiences of women worldwide. Her book Unleashing The Female O is the only masturbation memoir and magical pussy guide in existence, a story of an ordinary female sexuality - including the unglamorous and offering a new narrative for women to connect lovingly and in a fun way to their body and sexuality. 

Keeley is a professionally trained Sex, Love & Relationship Coach, as well as an academic researcher and scientist. She is bringing Anarchy to the UK via the Sexual Revolution!

She is the founder of Self Pleasure School, a global initiative to give women the proper sexual education they never got at school, empowering them to close the gender orgasm gap and all of the other gender gaps that still exist. 

Keeley shares about her journey to discovering her sexual awakening from the age of 8, starting with an innocent joyful experience then later in life, shame and hate around her body set in, feeling incredibly disconnected from her body which lead her on a journey of self pleasure discovering, learning and experiencing all the different kind of orgasms in her body, starting the healing process and a new relationship within.

Masturbation from her experience was associated with so much fear and suppression. This encouraged her to change the perception around this, helping people to change the way they think, behave and relate to sexuality. ‘Self Pleasure School’ was created. This is the worlds first masturbation school, helping women to unlock the mighty power of YOUR vagina and squirt your juices on the the world!

Keeley is not afraid to push the boundaries on social media with her fun and creative videos so I highly recommend you check these out. Her mission is to create a joyful, pleasurable and playful way of sexual expression.

Today’s episode is another heartfelt, vulnerable & real conversation with the beautiful Nick Broadhurst. 

You may associate Nick to his music, a founding member of Sneaky Sound System. He's a singer, song writer, film producer, an entrepreneur, the loving husband to Melissa Ambrosini and a dedicated father. There are many layers to Nick, which I had the opportunity to find out recently when I heard a recent interview by my favourite podcaster, Luke Storey.

I am a fan of Nicks music but until recently, I saw him in a very different light. I heard him open up about his journey to awakening his masculine, talking about sacred sexuality, relationships & intimacy. This prompted me to reach out to Nick, to have him on my show so YOU, the listeners could also hear how he created space in his life, so he could emerge into his true role in life.

You are going to LOVE this interview. Hearing Nicks journey to Awakening his sleepy masculine so he could finally rise up, meet himself & be ready & available for his partner in crime, his beautiful beloved Melissa. He talks about the practices, communication style & tools he uses to bring awareness into play so he can be a more conscious and balanced person - mind, body & soul. 

We have a great conversation about polarity - how important to bring the yin & yang into life, especially with your partner. Being in that flow of masculine & feminine dance which each other. How it shows up in your life, especially when you are experiencing personal growth but recognising the individual work we do is as important to do with our partner. So many great tips and reminders that the challenging times in your relationships are the best gifts. This is gold! 

He shares his perspective around the fears that men have when it comes to intimacy & relationships - you will love this! 

He opens up about being allergic to learning --  forcing himself to take a break, a back seat from learning. This includes his meditation practice, reading or listening to podcasts. Instead, he’s coming back by practicing embodiment. He’s focusing on his music again & coming back to just being here in this moment - arms & heart wide open!

Ohhhh there is so much nuggets of wisdom! Enjoy.....

Natalie is a Tantra & Embodiment Teacher who has been studying for over 20 years. She has travelled all over the world, working with major Tantra influencers, who include Michaela Boehm, Layla Martin & Master Mantak Chia. She is able to weave into her a work a combination of traditional and neo Tantra along with an embodiment practice as a Teacher of Transpersonal Counselling, sacred sexuality & ritual. 

Natalie has a deep desire to support women to come home deeply to themselves. To remember who we are in their true nature and connect deeply back to their innate magic.

Today Natalie shares why women should invest in a jade egg, the healing benefits from a sexual, physical, emotional and energetic perspective. This comes from an ancient Taoist practice for women, helping them to connect to their body through the jade egg, allowing you to access your temple so you can have a deeper relationship with your anatomy and unlock the mystery and wisdom YOU hold in the vagina. Jade Egg has been known to heal sexual or emotional trauma if guided by a qualified Jade Egg Teacher. 

We talk about sexual boundaries, holding our own as women, not holding back from using our voice, knowing when is a hell YES or f#ck NO! The little girl in us who wasn’t taught to access our voice & how this plays out in relationships. How we can lose our power by not speaking our truth and being in our full expression. This is such a powerful conversation - especially for mothers who want to educate their daughter/s around sacred sexuality.

Ohhhh so much great nuggets in this interview with my gifted and wise friend. We cover so much that I need to do a part 2.

Former Juke Kartel bass player and vocalist, Tommy Kende shares his journey from being a rock star - your typical sex, love and rock & roll lifestyle. Touring and living the dream in LA, Tommy returned to Australia where he hit rock bottom financially.

This rock bottom was the universe pushing him into a very different direction in life. He never in his dreams considered being a yoga teacher or thought his ability to being a gifted healer was on the map to fulfilling his purpose.

Tommy is a man’s man but he’s a lot more than meets the eye. I have known Tommy for a number of years. He's been very instrumental in my life, helping me coming back to self love & cracking me wide open when I have contracted, felt blocked, stuck or just lost in myself.  

Today we cover a lot about the reality of being spiritual. Keeping it real, Tommy talks openly and honestly his view on the spiritual community and seeing past the ego that come’s with this identity or connection. He is incredibly grounded, humble and a man that is direct and honest with everyone who has the pleasure of knowing him.

We have a great conversation about intuition, his ability to see and feel into people and diagnosing what's going on in their life. Intuition, a big gift of my own that I have ignored way too long but finally starting to trust in my own ability to use this.  A reminder to listen to your heart and body, not that inner critic or voice that may want to run the show.

Tommy has embarked on a mission to fill life with love, abundance, happiness and overall goodness. He has been on a journey of self-discovery for the last 39 years.

Much gratitude to Tommy and all that he brings into our community. You can subscribe to his podcast and keep an eye out for his book that will be released soon.

James is a sufferer of depression, escapism and self sabotage - his words. 

He is big on social media, openly sharing his challenges or struggles that he is faced with and being a massive advocate for mens health - particularly mental health. 

For someone of his age, he definitely has a lot of wisdom and soul. Its only recently he has become curious about spirituality. Feeling into the benefits of a regular yoga and meditation practice has helped him overcome some obstacles and provided him with the compassion & love within. 

I have been watching and listening to Jame’s journey with a lot of admiration and feel incredibly inspired by his work. His commitment to talking openly about his struggles and sharing so willingly, is helping other men and people to reach out and talk about anxiety and depression. His goal is to encourage other men to reach out and feel comfortable to seeking the help they need. This is something that still needs a lot of encouragement and support amongst men - getting vulnerable.

James has taken time out to enjoy the sweetness of life and commit to his self development journey. So much respect! I understand its not easy for many people to have time off work and focus on passion projects like I did over a year ago. 

This is a beautiful, raw and open interview that you will love - guarantee!
You will be swept up by Jame’s personality, honesty and love for learning.

Today’s guest is a a very special guest.....someone who I have the pleasure to call one of my besties, a woman I absolutely adore and love.

Leila understands that one of her purposes in life is supporting and inspiring people to step into their warrior archetype - to live life unapologetically YOU - in your authenticity! In this interview, she shares her process around this - you will love this discussion.

We pack in a lot in this conversation, I may have to do a part 2! There is no holding back when it comes to sharing her personal journey of heartache and overcoming and healing domestic violence.  Leila put her Masters of Psychotherapy and Counselling on hold during humanity's most challenging times of the 21st century only to find herself creating a new version of herself and in this new version, she became the support anchor of many people in Australia. With a fierce heart to protect and be an upstanding fighter for truth and freedom, Leila took it upon herself to lead thousands of people during the pandemic to mental, emotional and spiritual safety. Now, post-pandemic, she understands the depths of the dark night of the soul which she helps people to face and conquer as well as to help them remove anxiety and depression as a label. 

Leila is also very passionate about children's mental health especially post pandemic where we have seen a 70% increase in cyber bullying thanks to lockdowns and a 30% increase in bullying in schools. Leila is a facilitator of a non for profit organisation called Bully Zero where she teaches primary and high school students about bullying. 

Her style is raw, unapologetic, authentic, transparent and no bullshit!
There is so much to this woman and after this episode, you will understand why this peaceful warrior is a big part of many people’s life - me included.

I had Dan on my podcast, in the very early stages of when I was getting my show up and running. He was a favourite guest for many of my listeners, being one of the most down loaded episodes. 

In our first interview, Dan shared a lot about his journey to waking up to life and himself with the help of meditation - which completely transformed him. Dan is a tradie who has influenced many men in the community with getting his message out there, the benefits of meditation and how important it is to rest your body by coming into stillness.

I wanted to get Dan back on the show again as so much has opened up and changed in his life since we spoke. He has immersed himself into training and has recently stepped up into his new role as a Teacher. He is now a One Giant Mind Meditation Teacher AND Yoga Instructor.  Wow - so inspiring!

Dan has so many great nuggets in this interview. I needed to hear a few of them - he reminded me to stop waiting for happiness. Get off your butt and GIVE happiness - show the happiness you want to embody!

This interview is a goodie!!

Melissa is an empowerment educator and yoga instructor. Her mission is to inspire people to see themselves  exactly as they are - beautiful, special and unique.

Melissa offer programs to build self confidence, reduce stress, boost energy and vitality and most importantly, connecting people to their true self.

In this interview, Melissa shares a number of great nuggets. Its two friends having this fun and meaningful conversation. I guarantee you will finish this episode feeling incredible inspired and energised.

We talk about relationships - how to take your power back when you are disempowered. Not trying to accommodate but stay true to your value system and if someone isn't able to meet you at that level, thats ok. 

We talk about self love and she openly shares how lacking self worth impacted her life but how she turned this around. I have to admit, she has really stepped up into her own of late. She is radiating this beckon of light and glowing love. I loved hanging with her today and it was just another reminder how important it is to surround yourself with people who can support you when you are experiencing transition or going through pain in life.

Kundalini Yoga is a dynamic and powerful tool designed to give you an experience of your true self. Known as the Yoga of Awareness, Kundalini Yoga is a technology that combines physical postures, breathing exercises, mudra (hand gestures), meditation and mantra to balance the glandular system and strengthen the nervous system.  It brings balance to the body, mind and soul so you may feel energised, calm and relaxed.

Today I have the pleasure to chat openly with Mangala Holland. 

Mangala specialises in transformational feminine empowerment. She helps women connect to the sacredness of their bodies and pleasure. She is an international facilitator of womens groups, Tantric rituals, retreats and workshops. She places a very strong emphasis on self love, embodiment and empowerment, bringing the sacred into all elements of her life and teaching.

Mangala is the founder of Sacred School of Shakti, offering a number of online courses, programs and workshops. 

Today we dive into self love, empowering ourself through pleasure - finding a way to move the body to connect to yourself and tap into your energy body. She offers some great tips and advice on how we can bring sensuality into our life - without putting the pressure on thinking it needs to be sexual pleasure! I love our conversation around this.

Mangala shares how her self loathing and lack of worth led her on a journey of healing through yoga initially which then she explored through Tantra. When her sexual energy woke and the transformation took shape in her life, she became passionate and inspired to help other women find this new form of love for oneself and life. 

She offers great advice for women who want to start this journey of self empowerment through their sexuality and pleasure but don’t know where to begin.

You will love this conversation! You can feel and tap into her energy, softness and strength. She is such a gentle soul with a lot of passion and love.

In this episode, I am going to walk you through a beautiful process that I learnt in my training with Layla Martin and a process I use with the couples I work with. 

This was developed by Stan Tatkin. Stan is a clinician, researcher, teacher and author of four books. The favourite couples book, Wired for Love: How Understanding Your Partner’s Brain and Attachment Style Can Help You Defuse Conflict and Build a Secure Relationship.

Today I am going to be talking you through building, protecting, and not-popping the couple bubble so you can defuse conflict and build a secure relationship.

The couple bubble is about keeping each other feeling safe and secure in the relationship - making it about your partners needs rather than YOURS.

This is a very helpful process for couples to understand the value and meaning of the couple bubble SO If you didn’t tune into my first podcast - Communicating your Desires, Fears and Love - then you may want to have a listen to that. This is a follow on from this podcast, another communication tool and advice for couples.
