Why Self-Love Is So Hard (And How to Heal) | Dr. Deborah Egerton21 sept. 202601:07:16

What if the blueprint for a life you love wasn't more strength, more effort, or more grit, but a deeper capacity to love and forgive?

In this Season 9 opening episode, Anthea Bell sits down with world-renowned Enneagram expert, psychotherapist and author Dr. Deborah Egerton for an honest conversation about the transformative power of love as a force for healing our own wounds, and those of a fractured, often divided world.

You'll hear why seeing the good in others (and yourself) is anything but naïve, and how connection is the antidote to isolation and survival mode. Deborah shares how suffering can be the wake-up call that cracks open our narrow perspectives and moves us toward compassion and unity. 

Together they explore healing generational trauma, the tension between nurture and dominion, the pivotal importance of the female voice, and what it means to lead from the divine feminine in our own lives and in the wider work of global healing.

It's an invitation to let your light shine, to move from resentment to gratitude, and to remember that real change starts one person at a time.

Season 8 Solo Episode - What it takes to let yourself be "seen"19 juin 202600:22:53

You sweet humans,

Last night, you found me curled up on my sofa leaving you a little podcast love-note... The first solo episode in an entire season of heart-expanding interviews. And, dedicated to a theme that all of you have been asking for:

"What does it take to let myself be truly, deeply, seen?"

Our yearning for visibility is palpable - as a society consistently disconnected from self, body and true connection, we long for it like nothing else. To be witnessed in all our beauty and bumpy humanity; to be held in the moments we feel most tender; to be celebrated for our incredible strides, our "biggest moments"; to become a part of something rooted in love and togetherness. 

We crave it: and by the same token, we ricochet away from it. Fearful, protective, imprinted on a body and mind level to stay wary. 

So, for all of you who have been longing to let loose into being seen - listen in. This is an episode dedicated to your wanting, to understanding your own patterns / preventatives, and to working beyond them. I've offered insight from my own life as well as swathes of clients - sink in with me and see what resonates. Let us know...

And if this deep-dive speaks to you, send it to someone who you think would love to hear it too. Make sure you’re following the show so you don’t miss what’s coming next, and if you’ve been loving the podcast this season, leaving a quick rating or review makes a bigger difference than you think.

The Most Honest Conversation Yet - Your Host Anthea Bell, in the Spotlight11 mai 202600:52:05

This episode is a special one.

As our final episode of the season, we’re turning the spotlight inward. For the first time, your host Anthea Bell steps into the guest seat, and shares her own deeply personal story with Coach and Entrepreneur, Annabel Lane.

In this honest and powerful conversation, Anthea opens up about the journey from self doubt and not enoughness - to embodiment, healing and stepping fully into her voice. From early childhood patterns and people pleasing to navigating fear, visibility, anger and identity, this episode explores what it really takes to grow beyond the versions of ourselves we’ve out-stripped.

You’ll learn about the important role of crisis in transformation, the reality of fear when stepping into your potential, and why so many of us stay stuck in compromise instead of choosing authenticity. Anthea shares how somatic healing and reconnecting with the body became a turning point in her life, and why true change is not about perfection, but about willingness to face what feels uncomfortable.

If you’ve ever questioned your worth, held yourself back, or waited for permission to take up space, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are and gently challenge you to step forward into your own beautiful light.

We hope you’ll love it: let us know what lands.

How to Unlock Your Creativity with Internationally-Renowned Artist Simon Kenny04 mai 202600:54:17

What if your niggling self doubt was actually pointing you straight toward your purpose?

In this episode, Anthea sits down with internationally-acclaimed abstract artist Simon Kenny - opening up a deeply honest conversation about creative expression, vulnerability and identity. What in fact it really takes to grow into and show up as an artist in the world.

You’ll learn about the persistent reality of imposter syndrome, even at peak fame; the struggle with confidence and self worth; how creating heals our older and more implicit wounds; and the ongoing journey towards a sense of enoughness. Simon shares how his relationship with art has evolved over time, from using it as both a shield and a form of escape, to embracing it as a space for emotional expression, self-exploration and core healing. This conversation explores how art and trauma are often intertwined, and how the creative process itself can be a powerful pathway for personal transformation.

We’ll also dive into the messy middle of the artist journey, including overcoming creative blocks, learning to live with uncertainty and redefining success beyond external validation. Simon opens up about building a business, experiencing failure and finding his way back to an authentic artistic identity through abstract art process and experimentation.

This episode is a reminder that self expression is not about perfection, but about courage. It is about showing up, creating anyway and allowing your work to evolve as you do. In the process, who you are, what you believe and the inspiration you offer completely re-shapes.

The Truth About Eating Disorders & The Deeper Foundations of Recovery with Leading Sports Dietitian Renee McGregor27 avr. 202601:18:00

Have you or someone you know ever struggled with an eating disorder?

In this heart-felt and insightful episode, Anthea is joined by Renee McGregor, a leading voice in sports nutrition and eating disorder recovery. Together, they share a deeply honest conversation about the realities behind health, performance and the systems that often fail people in the greatest need of care. If this is a theme you’ve wondered about, today’s episode is a critical listen.

Renee shares her own ED recovery journey, and how it shaped her work supporting high-performing individuals struggling with disordered eating, exercise addiction and complex relationships with the body. We’ll explore how trauma and eating disorders are closely linked, and why many behaviours are actually emotional coping mechanisms rather than issues of discipline or control. This foundation becomes critical in knowing how to create truly lasting change.

The conversation also highlights the importance of nervous system regulation, rest and learning to rebuild a healthy food relationship beyond rigid rules.

Together, we’ll unpack the impact of wellness culture in today’s world, the role of social media and body image, and the growing conversation around GLP1 medications and Ozempic. Renee speaks openly about weight stigma, gaps in treatment systems and the need for more compassionate, inclusive approaches to care.

From intuitive eating to autonomy in recovery, this episode challenges common narratives and invites you to form a more nuanced, human approach to health and healing.

Why We Keep Repeating the Same Patterns - And How to Break Free with Master Coach Miriam Binder20 avr. 202601:04:15

The armour that once protected you might now be the very thing keeping you from not only real connection - but a life path and purpose that are truly meant for you. The question is: can we wake up to a different way, one that lives just underneath our shielding and control..?

In this episode, Anthea is joined by a deeply present and grounded voice, to explore what it means to live with emotional presence and integrity in your everyday life - Miriam Binder, Master Coach with Integral Coaching Canada, and former Corporate Executive.

You’ll learn about the subtle ways we disconnect through dissociation, control and self protection, and how these patterns impact our ability to experience authentic connection and conscious relationships. You’ll also learn about the loneliness that can sit behind the armour, and the courage it takes to soften into vulnerability and connection. These facets ultimately become the re-building of a sense of self that redirects the life you build thereafter.

A big part of this conversation is relational healing - and how transformation happens through real life interactions, not just solo inner work. Together, we explore healing through love, the role of self awareness, and what it actually looks like to move from control into surrender and flow in your life.

We also touch on inner child healing, parenting and healing, and the power of forgiveness practice, especially when it comes to how we show up for ourselves and our children. This episode invites you into compassion practice, non judgment awareness and a deeper sense of embodied love that allows you to meet life with openness instead of protection.

Embodying Integrity in Life and Leadership with Brand Strategist Jessica Huie MBE13 avr. 202600:49:12

Being seen - fully and in your true authenticity - can completely reshape your identity, your leadership, and the relationships you hold most dear. We know it, sense it, and yet we hover at the starting line; shy, timid, uncertain of our value or permission to launch. Until, something or someone comes along to change the game.

In this episode, Anthea is joined by renowned Publicist Jessica Huie MBE - diving into a heartfelt conversation about authenticity, courage and the quiet power of unshakeable presence. Jessica shares her personal journey and the early influences that shaped her values, leadership and deep commitment to advocacy and integrity. A mission she carries forward with every single client she works with. We explore what it really means to be “seen”, that deepest of human yearnings, and why that experience can become a turning point for personal growth, self trust and profound external strides.

The conversation moves into love, fear and unity, and how choosing presence over habit or convenience transforms relationships, leadership and parenting. Jessica speaks openly about motherhood, conscious, collaborative parenting and navigating success while honouring what truly matters. This episode is a reflection on feminine leadership, embodied wisdom and living a purpose driven life rooted in courage and compassion. The melting pot where spirituality, humanity and entrepreneurship meet…

Finding Peace in a Chaotic World with Sikh Mystic & Healer Shamir Singh06 avr. 202601:03:43

I wonder if you relate to this? The sense of something missing in your life; like a whisper underneath the surface of your conscious life.

What if this echoing feeling wasn’t a problem to fix - but a sign to go deeper? An opportunity to connect to a level of wholeness that your body~mind has just forgotten.

In this episode, Anthea sits down with Spiritual Guide, Teacher and Body~Worker Shamir Singh - offering a powerful insight on embodied wholeness, cultivating belonging and what it really means to feel connected in a world that constantly pulls us outward. From the outset, Shamir shares how his journey has been rooted in reconnecting to oneness consciousness - and that healing is not about becoming something new, but returning to what has always been there.

Together, they explore the layers of conditioned patterning that shape identity; and how de-conditioning these acquired layers / selves allow us to reconnect with personal truth, and deeper spiritual connection. Shamir speaks about the profound systemic role of healing modalities like sound healing, breathwork practice and meditation and movement - non-verbal methods that guide the body back into stillness and inner peace.

This conversation also offers powerful insight on how we relate to others - navigating codependency, the journey of self love and how our earliest relationships shape the way we seek connection and belonging in adulthood. Through the themes of shadow work, intuitive healing and conscious living, Shamir shares a grounded perspective on spiritual growth that is not about escaping life, but engaging with it more fully.

Ultimately, they explore what it means to live in the “eye of the storm” and how practices like nervous system regulation and breath awareness can support you in navigating uncertainty with more trust, presence and ease.

Healing Childhood Trauma & Finding Deep Belonging - The Pathway Forward with Acclaimed Psychotherapist Turiya Hanover27 mars 202601:02:12

What if your disconnection had less to do with you - and more to do with what you have absorbed? Unconsciously, developmentally and through the generational line?

This episode is one of the most profoundly honest, touching explorations we’ve ever shared - with global retreat leader, psychotherapist & developmental coach Turiya Hanover. Together, we explore the legacies of generational, cultural and early childhood trauma - and the impact they have on who we know ourselves to be in the present.

Turiya shares her own experience: of growing up in post-war Germany, surrounded by unspoken pain, shame and emotional disconnection. Together we dive into what it means to be shaped like a soft stone by a trauma field; how that influences patterns like dissociation, nervous system disruption, hyper-vigilance, and a deep psychological sense of not belonging. There is a powerful reflection on how early instability and separation influence identity, relationships and the body - as well as how we walk ourselves beyond them.

A central theme is that real trauma healing does not happen in isolation. Together we explore the relational space and why healing through connection is essential when trust has been broken early in life. Turiya speaks openly about codependency patterns, dynamics of victimhood, feminine healing and the journey of learning to feel your own emotions rather than abandoning yourself for others.

We also touch on grief and loss; the role of death as a teacher and how facing life honestly can bring you back to what truly matters to you. This episode weaves together spiritual growth, self awareness and personal transformation - all grounded in the work of the Path of Love, an international retreat movement founded by Turiya, which roots people back into their essential connection to the heart. The Path journey, as well as this dialogue, are your avenue to deeper embodiment, self-embrace and safety in the world - take a listen.

What Happens When You Stop Controlling Your Life? - The Truth About Meditation with Mutribo20 mars 202600:57:17

What if the wholeness you’ve been searching for is already right in front of you; “you” have simply been standing in the way…?

In this deeply reflective conversation, Anthea is joined by renowned meditation teacher and spiritual guide Mutribo; who explores the nature of awareness, surrender and the illusion of the separate self. Together, they dive into the heart of meditation practice, the root of inner suffering and its salve - the capacity to truly rest, in the present moment.

Mutribo shares insights from decades of spiritual self-inquiry, including time spent in silent retreats and years devoted to exploring consciousness and awareness. We explore themes of non-duality, the illusion of the ego, and how suffering often arises from the belief that we are separate individuals responsible for controlling our lives. Through stories, philosophy and gentle wisdom, this conversation invites you into a deeper relationship with silence and stillness practice.

The episode touches on fear, resistance and the paradox of letting go of control. Mutribo explains how spiritual awakening is less about achieving something new and more about recognising what has always been present. From observing the mind to discovering the simplicity of awareness of being, this conversation offers a thoughtful doorway into mindfulness and meditation and the path of awakening.

If you have ever wondered about the nature of consciousness, the purpose of your spiritual practice or how surrender and acceptance can lead to inner peace and freedom, this episode offers a powerful perspective.

The Mindset Behind Elite Performance with International Coach Hadrian Stiff13 mars 202601:12:44

What if what distinguished elite athletes from others wasn't purely talent - but rigorous mindset, self-trust and the ability to stay steady under pressure..?

In this episode, Anthea sits down with Elite Athletics Coach Hadrian Stiff, exploring what truly creates high performance - not just in sport, but in life.

From squash prodigy to world class coach, Hadrian shares the evolution of his journey and how his philosophy around coaching, leadership in sport and athlete development has transformed over time.

The conversation dives into elite athlete mindset, sports psychology and the reality of navigating competitive environments where performance pressure is constant. Hadrian speaks openly about overcoming fear, reshaping belief systems and building real mental resilience - garnered from decades working with some of the leading names in sport. We explore resilience training, emotional regulation and the power of self trust - even and especially when everything is on the line.

Through powerful case studies including World No. 1 Mohammed El Shorbagy and World No. 4 Joelle King, we unpack transformational coaching techniques, success mindset principles and how growth through discomfort becomes the foundation for long-term wellbeing and performance. 

This conversation is about confidence building, vision and belief, and why acceptance is often the missing piece in personal growth. If you’ve been struggling to stick to take action toward your goals, follow through a health resolution or build deep, innate self-esteem - this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

Reclaiming Healthy Masculinity - Fatherhood, Space-Holding and Sacred Archetypes with Samora Yeboah06 mars 202600:56:04

What if healthy masculinity wasn't about dominance or control, but presence, initiation and the courage to face the unknown?

In this episode, Anthea is joined by Samora Yeboah, a men’s-work facilitator, musician and sacred space holder - join them for a deep conversation about healthy masculinity, men’s work and the importance of ritual in both growth and wider life.

Samora shares through his extensive personal and professional experience. He speaks on the criticality of creating intentions environments and lifestyles; how this ritualistic practice fosters ones connection with inner knowing, spirituality and a deeper sense of self beyond our conditioning. He shares how this work, through its transformative impact on the individual, re-shapes our ways of relating to others - romantically, familially and even societally.

Anthea and Samora talk initiation rituals, rites of passage and the healthy embrace of fight & challenge - discussing how the cultural absence of these experiences has impacted the development of boys into men. Samora speaks openly about brotherhood, tribal connection, masculinity-in-partnership and the role of the father archetype in male development and the father~son bond. You’ll learn his definition of masculine “embodiment”; what conscious fatherhood is; and how facing & embracing difficulty stimulates emotional maturity, leadership and resilience.

And finally, from one to two - we explore the role of the “masculine” in romantic relationship. How critical it is for men to cultivate their own feminine interiority; the balance we can find in a two-partner pairing; and how as a couple, and within community, we can learn to navigate the uncertainty of life with greater skill and respect.

The Power of Love And Mission with Psychotherapist Abigail Iquo Isuo27 févr. 202600:59:05

How do we move into deepest Being, and deepest Becoming? An integrity, wholeness, truth-seeing & telling that changes not just lives - but the cultures in which we live? Far more than personal, surface-level shifts - this form of self-actualisation is a practice of going inward; companioning and confronting what you find; and courageously choosing the person and values you wish to live by. It’s stripping away, in order to rebuild, and takes both radical bravery and radical responsibility. As today’s speaker would know…

In this episode, Anthea is joined by integrative transpersonal psychotherapist Abigail Iquo Isuo - a renowned 1:1 coach, retreat leader, facilitator and guide. Together, they share an inspiring conversation about coming to know yourself truly - in a way that irrefutably points the way forward. It’s a conversation illuminating psychological structures and safety-seeking; the nature of authenticity; deep embodiment; and what real personal transformation involves beyond the surface level work.

Abigail shares her own journey through integrative psychotherapy, along with her experience as Facilitator of the somewhat revered experience, Path of Love - an immersive and transformative 7-day retreat bringing people home to their innate capacity for connection. Abigail shares how these avenues shaped her understanding of somatic healing, emotional legacy and the body~mind connection - and how we can slowly but surely work our way back to integration.

We explore how nervous system regulation plays a central role in healing, empowered leadership, relational dynamics and working with discomfort. You’ll learn Abigail’s insights into self-leadership, sovereignty and building relational health - particularly in romantic dynamic where old patterns easily surface. It’s an episode rich in insight and guidance - centering on psychospiritual growth, emotional intelligence and learning to trust the wisdom of the body as a guide for living with purpose.

The Secret to Creating Real Impact in The World with Brody Lee20 févr. 202601:13:49

What happens when a life-altering trauma meets radical self-responsibility? Who could you become - if you used your trauma as the most powerful pivot you could ever take…?

In this deeply moving and expansive conversation, Anthea is joined by Brody Lee; global strategist, event architect and transformational leader, to explore what it really means to wake up to your life and choose impact over fear.

Brody shares his extraordinary personal story; from childhood trauma and addiction to a near-fatal overdose, and the moment that changed everything. What followed was not just healing, but a complete reclamation of purpose, agency and joy. We now meet him as an 8-figure entrepreneur working with some of the most purpose-led visionaries in the world - all from his core belief in the human capacity for growth beyond pain.

Together, Anthea and Brody dive into the deeper layers of trauma healing, fear, personal responsibility and self-belief - unpacking why so many people stay stuck in hesitation and how one clear decision can radically alter the trajectory of your life.

This episode also challenges the way we think about sales, money and service, offering a powerful reframe.

You’ll hear reflections on:

  • Healing trauma without shame or labels - what needs releasing to liberate your potential
  • Addiction, compassion and reclaiming personal agency
  • Why fear isn’t the problem
  • Sales as service and money as a force for good
  • Events, community and the power of collective transformation
  • What it really means to build “legacy-level” impact

This conversation is for the dreamers, the self-developers, the leaders and the ones who know there’s more available to them, even if they don’t quite know how to reach it yet.

If you’ve ever felt called to a bigger life but held back by fear, doubt or old stories, this episode is an invitation to choose again.

2026 - Could this be Your Happiest Year Yet? 03 janv. 202600:28:27

Welcome dear ones to the latest Solo Episode of Finding Your Way Home; the Podcast dedicated to supporting your journey inward, and into a life that's profoundly conscious, connected and deeply alive.

Today, we're diving into a special topic requested by one of our listeners: how to cultivate deeper happiness as we move into the year to come. What are the measures of true personal joy, contentment and peace? And once identified in a way that feels authentically intimate to you, how do we begin to build this in our lives - emotionally and experientially? 

After a decade working with hundreds of clients, I would argue that this question lies at the heart of most others. Behind the yearning for success, a healthier body, greater income or a deeper sense of self, is a foundational desire to be "happy" in that realisation - to come to a place within yourself and your life where you can finally rest still for a moment, satisfied & satiated by all that you've created. So, in this week's episode we dive in - exploring the nuances of building your own "happiness" blueprint, and what might unconsciously stand in the way. 

So my loves; sit back and soak it in - from our heart to yours. Let us know what lands...

Dissolving Imposter Syndrome - Part 2 - Guided Practice30 déc. 202500:48:41

Dissolving Your Imposter Syndrome - Part 2

Welcome dear ones to your latest Solo Episode of Finding Your Way Home - the Podcast dedicated to supporting your journey inward, your journey through, into a life so conscious, so connected and alive that it truly enriches you and those around you. It's beautiful to have you with us. 

Today, we're diving into Part 2 of one of our most consistently requested topics - how to navigate and find our way beyond Imposter Syndrome. Tune into Part 1 to learn the psychological & emotional roots of this particular form of social anxiety and self-questioning. Our adult form of "Am I enough to belong". As you listen in, see if you can identify your own Imposter Syndrome blueprint - the narratives, physical safety / threat signals and emotional responses that arise for you specifically, when you find yourself in an environment that feels "stretchy". Spaces or relationships in which you desire to be seen, chosen, esteemed, included... 

And as you tune into Part 2, prepare to take a deeper look at what this pattern reveals - about your view of yourself, and the parts within you longing to be embraced, loved, integrated and released. Together, through practical tools and a powerful guided meditation practice, we're going to work through your specific issues and create a baseline of calm, self-worth and non-attachment to the opinions of others. They were never really the issue, as you will discover... 

So my loves; sit back, absorb, nourish - taking this sacred time for you, with you. You, in fact, were always the point.

Dissolving Imposter Syndrome - Part 122 déc. 202500:19:10

Dissolving Your Imposter Syndrome - Part 1

Welcome my loves, to your latest Solo Episode of Finding Your Way Home - the Podcast dedicated to supporting your journey inward, your journey through, into a life so conscious, so connected and alive that it truly enriches you and those around you. It's beautiful to have you with us. 

Today, we're exploring one of the most heavily requested topics we receive: how to navigate and find our way beyond Imposter Syndrome, that wonderfully adult manifestation of the fear of being "less than", rejected or excluded. 

As a Coach who works exclusively with high-achieving, high-functioning clients - from Executives to leading Actors and Directors - I can promise you that this particular tendency doesn't discriminate. Irrespective of your level of success, qualification, network or finance; the fear of being "discovered" in you inadequacy can persist. It isn't until you truly make peace with your own mixture of light and dark that you find yourself no longer vulnerable to the perception you believe that others hold. 

And so, while you journey - sit back and soak it in... An episode dedicated to understanding and making friends with your particular form of impostering, and lighting the pathway to mental and emotional freedom. Stay tuned for Part 2, where I'll guide you through a dedicated practice in coming home, and offer practical tools to dissolve anxiety in the moments it arises.

Finding Emotional Health at Christmas18 déc. 202500:20:23

The Blueprint for Emotional Health at Christmas

It's been a moment since we last connected my loves - and as we prepare a stunning Spring Season of interviews for you, it's time for a little Solo. On a theme that fills my inbox and client calls at this time of year: how to successfully navigate Christmas. 

Somehow, we're here - at the tail end of an incredibly full year, on the cusp of deep transition for many, and in the days running up to family, socialising, rest (theoretical & practical) and reflection. It is for many an important and sometimes confronting season, where much is expected, tested, raised. So, we're diving into the challenge themes that are most pertinent; the parts of you / others that you may find activated; and how to find your way to balance, quiet & deeper self-compassion. For anyone feeling a flutter of anxiety in anticipation of the weeks to come - listen in. Let this be your blueprint on how to carve out your own needs, priorities and equilibrium in the bustle and busyness. While, lovingly and with detachment, allowing others to do the same. 

Remember to share this with a friend if you have found it supportive, re-listen as you need to, and reach out to the team here with any specific questions we can support you with. 

Sending love,

Bonus Episode - How to Master Difficult (Honest) Conversations23 oct. 202500:47:17

How to Master Difficult (Honest) Conversations

In this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home, we delve into the art and significance of having honest conversations… Not only honest - but skilful, generous, connective and genuinely generative for deeper, fuller relationships. We all know that communication is critical to a “good” / “healthy” love life, work life, spiritual life. And so, listen in for the inside track on both how to receive someone else’s honest feedback, and how to give it yourself. I’m sharing what I have learnt from over 10 years in self-development - and, many decades longer in some impressively nuanced dynamics… Stay tuned for your blueprint on mastering the nitty gritty terrain of conversational truth. 

In today’s Mini, you’ll discover: 

  • The power of consent, for the sharer and listener
  • Identifying accurately ones' intentions and level of emotional balance for having a conversation - and what happens depending on these factors
  • How to receive a person’s feedback or experience with neutrality (even when personally “touched”)
  • Learning the courage to speak your own truth
  • And most importantly - the framework, formats and sentences to use when trying to approach the topic, the “other” and a more meaningful relationship long-term. 

And stay with us until the end, for a little insight into what’s to come in next Season’s release - and what we have cooking behind the scenes at Finding Your Way Home.

Bonus Episode - Transforming Shame into Radical Self-Embrace 07 oct. 202500:35:24

Gorgeous Creatures, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home

And it's another special feature - a bonus episode, touching one of our least embraced, and most impactful emotions - Shame. 

And I promise - by the end of this episode you will have a deeper sense of not only how and why shame burrows deep inside of you - but learn the blueprint for moving through it, working with it, ultimately coming back into right relationship with yourself. The whole of you; not just the dissected parts we believe to be acceptable...

In this mini, we cover: 

✨ The roots of shame from a developmental and conditional perspective
✨ The somatic, emotional and thought-entanglement that shame often involves: how we move from feeling it, to hearing the internalised self-label, to becoming "identified" with the shamed self
✨ How to identify your personal shame biog, and begin to soften beneath the sensation into greater awareness, compassion and agency 
✨How to bring the unloved parts back into wholeness 
✨And why this self-work far outstrips any desire to have another validate what you yourself have cast aside...

As you will hear, this is a tender and intimately important theme - one which unchecked can block people from not only authentic expression, but professional success, romantic fulfilment and creative talent. Alchemised, brought into integration, it can be the most potent recipe for self-embrace and creating the reality that you desire.  To find ease and safety in greater success and visibility, we must first be willing to see and accept the whole of who we are. This is where we begin... 

Sending love, always; let us know what lands. 

Bonus Episode: Build Radical Confidence through Consciously Facing Your Fear29 sept. 202500:33:33

Gorgeous Creatures, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home

And it's a special feature - a bonus episode, continuing our Season 8 theme of calling, and the courage to pursue it.

Sit back, rest in, and join us to uncover how to build deeper, more expansive confidence in your abilities, your purpose and encountering the fear that could so easily hold you back. Until, as we do, we apply curiosity and compassion to what our fear may be speaking, and how to move forward irrespective of the temptation to hold back. 

In this mini, we cover: 

✨How to build core confidence in your innate quality and limitless possibility
✨Embracing and working with fear, rather than rejecting or reacting against it
✨Letting go of outdated relationships, dynamics, ways of being and acting in the world - liberating the human you know yourself to be
✨Embracing the potential that lives beyond your doubt, scarcity or trauma - what Faith, Self Trust and Curiosity will create in your inner experience and outer world…

Together, we’ll go right to the heart of what keeps most people stuck at the gateway to their deeper desire - the flight / freeze response that keeps us in convenient familiarity, over courageous ambition. Learn not only how to embrace the raw capacity you feel inside of you, but how to do so from centre, resource and regulation. 

Bonus: You’ll find a beautiful little presensing meditation nestled into the heart of the episode, to support you in real time to sit with fear - until, as always, it shifts into peaceful acquiescence, familiarity and eventually, clarity on what you choose for yourself, from wholeness. 

With love my friends; let us know what lands.

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home; a little moment of deep connection, where we dive into the inextricable link between mind, body and realising your most authentic self.

In this episode, we sit down with the wonderful Chela Davison; Master Integral Coach, Writer, Producer and all-round creative force, to share her profound journey of "finding calling". As a guide to thousands on the themes of artistic recovery and spiritual alignment, she walks us through the blueprint you need to truly hear, attend to and bring into life the mission that fires you. Irrespective, perhaps of the trepidation each one of us faces in squaring up to our true purpose. 

Chela shares her transition from leading an incredibly successful coaching business, positioned at the top of her field, to letting it all go to allow a greater creative force to move through her. This willingness to surrender to intuition led to the writing and release of her empowering one-woman show - an opus on the themes of identity, societal expectations and being "A Little Bit Much". 

We explore the powerful impact of listening to one's inner voice, the importance of community and shared spaces, and how to express your spirituality in a way that feels true to you. You'll learn how to navigate the practical challenges & sacrifices that can come with following one's true path; in their turn, liberating the immense and transformative power of feeling enlivened by a life spent in authenticity, presence, curiosity and connection.

Healing Through Scent: The Transformative Power of Aromatherapy with Robin Jones19 août 202500:57:00

Healing Through Scent: The Transformative Power of Aromatherapy with Robin Jones

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home; a little moment of deep connection, where we dive into the inextricable link between mind, body and realising your most authentic self.

This week, we delve into the story of Robin Jones; holistic health coach, neuro-aromatherapy expert and serial entrepreneur. A woman who, as you will hear turned to the power of scent when her own world (personal and familial) reached its own breaking point. A a mother of 8, wife and business woman facing significant health challenges, she embarked on a mission to truly heal herself from the decades of emotional and physical trauma that rippled through her family. Eventually, she found aromatherapy, and there began a lifelong passion to advance the status and availability of this ancient form of healing in modern times. 

Robin shares with us the neuroscience that makes aromatherapy such a compelling trauma-support tool; how one can use scent on a daily or  bespoke basis to navigate ones emotional landscape and physical ailments; why the sourcing and treatment of oils is so critical to their impact; and the nature of her work with high achieving women, to personal tailor a medicine that will support their deeper expansion. Her own story is woven throughout - generations in the Mormon community, which she continues to serve and support with the flexibility of a modern lens. 

It's a beautiful insight into not only the world of scent, but how powerful our senses can be in reshaping our experience (and perhaps success in) the world.

Rosa Maxwell on Sacred Sexuality - Could Tantra be the Embodiment Practice you're Missing?28 juil. 202500:54:40
Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home


This week, we explore the sacred realm of tantra, sexuality and the spiritual liberation these ancient practices may offer. We're joined by a guest as honest as she is magnetic; someone who's lived was fundamentally and irrevocably changed after experiencing Tantric mysticism. 

Rosa Maxwell is the Founder of the London School of Tantra; an organisation dedicated to educating UK audiences on the profound spiritual impact of so called "White Tantra". As its lead Facilitator and private Tantrica, Rosa joins us for a deeply personal conversation - diving into the origins of this ancient practice, its spiritual and philosophical underpinnings, and why / how in a modern culture so systematically repressed and emotionally disregulated, Tantra offers a solution. 

We go deeply into Rosa's personal story - exploring the early trauma that had left her numb, the low self worth and perfectionism that had ruled her experience in work and play, and the moment Tantra entered her space. It was then that the healing truly began - and she began what has turned into a lifelong mission to learn and share the secrets of this centuries-old form of spirituality. 

Listen in to learn all you wanted to know about how to achieve both deep self-expression and profound connection, in sacred contact with yourself and intimacy with others. A tender and immensely insightful episode for anyone re-evauating their relationship to self, sensuality, partnership and the capacity for abundance.

Emily Fletcher on How to Create an Audaciously Abundant Life - The Trifecta of Mindfulness, Meditation & Manifestation18 juil. 202501:03:02

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

This week's episode marks a landmark on the podcast: showcasing the wisdom, beauty and experience of the Number 1 speaker from our 2023 Top 100 dream guest list... And she's come along, not only to share her profound insights from over a decade of meditation & manifestation teaching - impacting more than 60,000 students to date, from top-ranking CEOs and navy seals to housewives and children of divided homes. She's also here to share with us her deepest personal learnings: on befriending herself with intimacy and fierce self-compassion; on integrating "the shadow", the parts so painfully cast aside; and on how to step audaciously into the fullness of who you are and what you're here to transmit into the world. 

Emily Fletcher, the one and only. 

Emily is the Founder of Ziva Meditation - one of the world's leading mediation schools, supporting thousands of people across the globe to release accumulated stress, trauma and the mind/body-based limitations that keep them from inhabiting their bliss. Not only a school but a potent system, the Ziva Technique blends ancient wisdom with modern science; centred on the life-changing trifecta of Mindfulness, Meditation and Manifestation. Its impacts are extensive - physiologically, neurologically and in the dream lives her students have been able to create. As you'll hear, Emily's passion for meditation is deeply personal - it became a critical tool in the aftermath of an incredibly destabilising childhood, and a 10-year Broadway career that wrought havoc on her wider well-being. After years of study in India and the USA, "Ziva" was born - and has continued to evolve at the cutting edge of mindfulness-based healing. Her most recent programme, Ziva Magic, takes manifestation one step further - bringing deep embodiment and creation energy into the toolkit for building your abundant life, now.  

This is arguably one of the juiciest, most personally-insightful episodes we've ever aired - I cannot wait for you to listen.... 

And dear ones - a special note. Emily will be holding an incredible live training for her global community on July 22nd. "Magic Maker" is an opportunity to dive into the Ziva Technique, your own manifesting power and Emily's 3 secrets to magnetising love, health, and abundance. If you'd like to join her, head to your unique Affiliate Link, which gives our listeners special access to this incredible event. You may walk out with an entirely new capacity for expansion - if my experience of Emily is anything to go by, I'd bet on it...

Suzy Ashworth on Leading with an Open Heart - in Life & In Business08 juil. 202501:01:26

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

I can't wait to introduce you to today's speaker - and to a conversation that hits home on so many levels...

Suzy Ashworth is an internationally-acclaimed Coach, public speaker and Sunday Times Best-Selling Author. Beyond her public successes, she's someone I've come to know intimately over the past two years - exploring her professional journey into coaching and building a 7-figure empire, to her personal edges & deepest growth opportunities. She is a veritable force: and today, we connect on a theme that's not only dear to me but critical to all of us supporting others - 

"What is it, truly, to live with an open heart? And how do we get there...? "

In our conversation, recorded in April this year, Suzy shares her profound insights into the nature of personal evolution, creating mind&body-based identity shifts and finding ways to alchemise the toughest moments we face. Never someone to shy away from a challenge, she demonstrates the value of perseverance and of seeing yourself and your capacities as continually plastic. Not only will you hear a touch of me under the microscope - you'll learn what truly creates a successful Coach / facilitator, and why Suzy feels so passionately about supporting that process. 

I loved every moment of our conversation, and I know you will too.

Felix Price on Psychedelic Ceremony & Connecting to the Divine30 juin 202500:47:19

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

Today, a little adventure into realms thus-far unexplored on the podcast... 

Earlier this year I had the chance to sit down with Felix Price; Founder of the Mixed Spiritual Arts movement, exhibiting artist and mens-work retreat-facilitator.  His passion: supporting those who might have been inhibited or uninvited into a deeper harnessing of their physical capacity, mental resiliency and spiritual connection. 

Felix began his journey in his late teens, when he was introduced somewhat accidentally to the world of psychedelics. As you will hear, he has explored this world extensively - describing the personal impact these had in expanding his psycho-spiritual awareness. And, as you will also hear, full sobriety from them became a fundamental answer to the deeper question: how, in the world we live in, can we experience bliss, connection, deeper clarity, without needing to pick up a substance? 

In our conversation, you'll learn about about Felix's own journey not just with plant medicines but with rehabilitating physical pain (a huge focus of his work now) personal growth, partnership, fatherhood and mens-work facilitation. We discuss the controversy around psychedelics, the dangers, and the profound need to personalise and safeguard any choices you do make to ensure you are individually cared for. For me, it was fascinating to hear his unique experience on such a charged topic - it felt only right to share the conversation with you all. 

And to underline the point my loves: none of this conversation is shared to move you toward altered states, or altering substances. As ever, the key with any decision is to tune in to yourself; seek real expertise related to your unique circumstances; and to truly ensure that any choice you make is a profound representation of the deepest love you hold for yourself. 

Let us know what lands for you, in a rather unusual episode...

Kane Wise - The Mind~Body hacks to Entrepreneurship - what does it take to thrive...?18 juin 202500:54:37

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

Today's episode is a special insight - into the life, soul & body practice of one of London's leading Health-Entrepreneurs, Kane Wise. 

What does it take to build a truly successful business - from its earliest conception, to proof-of-concept, right down to the moment it lands on the "shop floor"? What are the key philosophies, disciplines and self-connective practices that support someone to not only believe in their own vision, but radically back that vision in the face of real adversity and uncertainty? How do mind, emotional and body-based practice critically support someone to expand, and find the strategy & grit needed to keep going?

In another of our cosy sofa-side chats, we sit down with a man who has lived all of this in recent years - and exponentially expanded his self-knowing and manifest reality in the process. Want to learn about yourself? Try creating a business in one of the most commercially-challenging climates there is, during a global pandemic...

Kane Wise is a serial, solo-preneur specialising in the health and movement space. The Founder of Hytn, Vitamina Lab and his soon-to-be-released new baby, NAD - he is passionate about the role of lifestyle, mindset and his world, supplementation, in fostering people's full, potent potential. In our conversation, we dive into: Kane's personal journey in the realm of business; the challenges he had to navigate as he followed his mission; who he now knows himself to be and why living from that grain of authenticity is the only option. It's a conversation of deep heart, reflection and incredible takeaways for those of you building their own empires. I can't wait for you to listen!

And - a special note of appreciation goes to the incredible Epoch Fitness Studio (a gorgeous London Pilates-hub) and its Founder Dmitri Tkatchev, who as you will hear had an instrumental role in rebuilding Kane's physical capacities after some game-changing injuries. You'll find the details for Epoch below; if you're in town, it's worth your time...

West End Star Bessie Carter - How to Live at Your Full Scale04 juin 202500:44:53

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

We are back after a brief pause - a little breath, while we've been putting the final touches on an incredible Season 8 line-up.

And who better to kick off a season of profound, heart-led visionaries than beloved Actor, Producer and creative talent, Bessie Carter. Bessie joins us for her second interview on Finding Your Way Home, fresh from the announcement of her major West End Show, Mrs Warren's Profession. As we dive into what it truly means to be a "Lead Character" on and off-screen, Bessie shares her tender and powerful experience of allowing herself to grow to full scale and reach. Dissolving, in a sense, everything that was stood in the way...

During this intimate conversation in-studio, we explore Bessie's journey from timidity to self-embrace: 

  • How to liberate your authentic voice and potential
  • The courage to question and move beyond normative boxes of 'politeness' and social expectation
  • Embodiment and acting - how looking and feeling inward has impacted Bessie's professional practice, and her capacity to inhabit a character fully
  • The power of ritual in reconnecting us to the present & what matters most
  • The criticality of moving deeper than surface-level conversation - how to truly be and feel seen in our relationships

It's a beautiful exploration of the power of body~mind work in the creative space; testament to how one's self-commitment ultimately reshapes the life we live - and the legacy we leave.

EMDR & Trauma-Specialist Sophie Brigstocke: Healing from Codependency, one boundary at a time... 28 avr. 202500:52:47

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

A special treat - the opportunity to sit down with someone whose entire career has centred on "holding space" and healing trauma through a deeply somatic lens. 

Sophie Brigstocke is a phenomenally-gifted EMDR Therapist, Coach and Trauma-informed Breathwork Practitioner. Long before this, she was a birth-worker - not only supporting a generation of healthy births, but training a school of practitioners beneath her.  

And today, we dive into one of our utter passion topics - how to truly heal the patterns of Codependency that are often so woven into the fabric of our family dynamics, friendships and even professional hierarchies. 

In our conversation you will learn:

  • The tell-tale signs you are in a codependent dynamic, and what this leaning may be trying to provide / protect you from
  • How to un-mesh the enmeshment: boundaries, self-connection, beginning to rewrite the script of your relationships
  • Applying this lens to the role of "Practitioner", "Healer", Therapist - what is the balance between caring for others, even in a professional role, and becoming overly-attached to fixing
  • How to spot and navigate the propensity for burnout
  • Breathwork through a trauma-informed lens - Sophie recounts some of the startling practices she has seen in this space, that we can learn from as space-holders
  • The power of letting going of societal expectations around romance; how to allow you unique journey to evolve, and how prioritising the self can ultimately transform the sort of partner you attract

This is such a deeply rich, healing conversation - and profound for anyone who knows themselves to "people-please" or in any other way condition themselves to behave with others. Relish it my loves.

Actor Jeff Kober on releasing the addictive craving - tapping in, to find not only freedom but profound creative success14 avr. 202500:57:10

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

In this special episode, we sit down with Actor, Writer and revered Vedic Meditation Teacher Jeff Kober - a significant presence not only in LA's burgeoning creative scene, but its spiritual circles. 

Jeff is a special friend of the Podcast, and this interview marks his second appearance; an opportunity to dive far deeper into his story, his call to acting and how to let go of the "grasping" of the human mind / desire. It's a fascinating exploration of not only what it is to be human - but what it is to transcend human limitations and enter into true peace. Even if only for a moment...

Together, we explore:

  • The current US political and social climate: how to understand and operate within a context of such challenge & intensity
  • The nature of addictive "craving" - whether for substances, affection or accomplishment. How we can learn to lean in emotionally, let go materially and tap into the undercurrent of spaciousness.
  • Jeff's personal experience of alcoholism, and his path through 12-steps and meditation into powerful connection and faith
  • Acting, "success" and celebrity - the danger of pedestalisation and how we can re-find our equality
  • Transforming social anxiety into social engagement 
  • On the human experience - and finding union between the relative, material world and the intangibility of spirit

Profound, touching, incredibly valuable for anyone seeking a clean lens on their journey of self-development: I can't wait for you to listen.

Kundalini Yoga as a Pathway to Freedom: Spiritual Guide Kiranjot on the journey from dark depression to unbridled light23 mars 202500:56:54

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

Today, we have a listen of as much spiritual integrity as emotional depth - a heart-opening discussion with a Kundalini Yoga advocate who used this centuries-old tradition to move herself through depression and into light. 

Laura, who goes by the spiritual name Kiranjot ("Kiran" meaning "ray of sunlight" and "Jot" meaning "to hold"), is a Spiritual Guide, Kundalini Teacher and Retreat Facilitator, supporting those with a range of mental health challenges through the art and discipline of Kundalini Yoga. As she describes in our tender conversation, her pathway toward this ancient form was unexpected - her own ray of light during the darkest period of her adult life, when no other solution had offered enough insight or impetus to change. Having met Laura back in 2023, I knew she needed to feature on the podcast. Not only for her love of aligned, spiritual-activated movement, but for her love itself; the clarity that it is this guiding force that truly heals, truly bonds, truly cultivates a human's deepest potential. 

In this episode Laura and I explore:

  • Faith driven surrender - taking the leap because you've chosen to, not because you have no other choice  
  • Learning to abandon the Western cultural chronology - trusting that your life is exactly where it is meant to be 
  • Kundalini yoga as a pathway to freedom of mind and body
  • Working with and through depression - ultimately, to access one's innate capacity for gratitude and joy
  • Cultivating "ritual" in one's life - and how that practice becomes a daily devotion that feeds your soul

How to Optimise your Mind - Executive Coach Felix Hirschburger on human potential, radical embrace and the capacity to find meaning in each and every moment17 mars 202501:04:37

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

Today's episode is a rare insight into the mind and philosophy of a seminal figure in my own learning - Executive Coach, Entrepreneur and unspoken spiritual teacher, Felix Hirschburger. 

Felix was among our early podcast guests, and his insights on how to re-wire the mind while optimising the body made him one of our most popular guests.  

Today, we welcome Felix back to the studio for an even deeper conversation - on human potential, the holistic toolkit for deep personal~professional growth and how to embrace the rippled nature of your individual journey. As a business figure, Felix is known for his calm assurance, strategic mind and entrepreneurial leadership. As a human - for the generosity and grace to arrive with others in true openness, curiosity and compassion. His evolution as a father has been as foundational to this spirit of care as his work as a Coach - as you will hear. 

Together we discuss: 

  • The surprise and surrender of a lifelong journey toward deeper self - and how to find meaning in both the joy and challenge
  • Learning to embrace professional growth - whether you're in a period of momentum, or a forced pause. And, what happens when we can cultivate equanimity to it all.  
  • The body as a vessel for not only greater consciousness but rewiring the stress response, welcoming calm, experiencing delight
  • Psychedelic journeys - the benefits, the pitfalls and what peak experiences can cultivate for those called to the path

As ever, I am left moved and inspired by time with this incredible man - I know you will be too.

Short - Hypnobirthing & Neuroplasticity with Charlotte Mindel; how shifting your thinking can revolutionise your experience of pain13 mars 202500:25:31

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

In this week's Short, we explore the profound significance of the birthing process and why a "Conscious Birth" experience is so vital to the wellbeing of both mother and child. 

We're joined by Charlotte Mindel; a Pre and Post-Natal birthing Coach, who's mission is to place power back into the hands of women giving birth. Charlotte works holistically with mothers and their families to support all elements of the birthing experience - from education on the physiology of pregnancy / birth to awakening internal awareness, building positive mind-set and ultimately, offering parents the agency to choose the sort of birth that's right for them. 

In Charlotte's view, Western birth has become a deeply disconnected experience - both for the expectant mother and within a wider society that isolates and systematises the process and prescriptions. Her focus is on connecting mothers back to their intuition, growing their resources and the self-permission to follow a path that's truly authentic. She sees birth as a marker of the person - and therefore, as an immeasurable tool to find deeper personal alignment. 

In this powerful excerpt we explore not only the nature and benefits of hypnobirthing but how shifts in thinking can revolutionise our experience of pain / sensation - in each and every day that we're willing to stay with, be curious, and follow the messages emanating from the body. If you're someone navigating discomfort, diagnosis or simply wanting to take greater agency in your felt experience of life, this is the episode for you.

Polestar Pilates Founder Dr Brent Anderson on Faith, Connection and how to navigate the most challenging times with a candle of hope07 mars 202501:03:36

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

Today, we're thrilled to welcome onto the podcast a true pioneer in the world of movement and Pilates - the Founder of Polestar Pilates, Dr Brent Anderson.  

Dr Brent will be a familiar name to many of you - an internationally-acclaimed speaker, author, reputed expert in physical therapy & movement science, and arguably one of the most forward-thinking, community-led Pilates Educators we have. This conversation marks his third feature on the podcast; and a truly personal insight into the passions, principles and deep faith that lie behind his vision. His goal - to carry a spiritual and profoundly humanistic ethos into everything he does - to cultivate not only better movement, better health, but infinitely richer lives. 

In today’s episode, Dr. Brent and I delve into pivotal but lesser-spoken influences on human health, happiness and change. 

We learn his insights on:

  • What "coming home" truly means, and why finding that personal epicentre is so critical to everything we do in the world

Episode 8 - Pilates & Pelvic Floor Expert Claire Sparrow on movement, meaning and creating your own legacy28 févr. 202501:03:46

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

Today we’re joined by a special repeat podcast guest - author, pilates, movement and pelvic floor specialist, Claire Sparrow.  

Claire is a renowned figure in the movement world, marrying her passion for pilates with her wider mission - to restore women's pelvic health and grant them newfound agency, optimism and physical potential. She is a ceaseless champion of others, as you will know if you have read her book "Hope for your Pelvic Floor", visited her studios or joined one of her online programmes. 

What Claire and I really unite on, is the webbed connection of body~mind and the profound influence of the human heart on creating businesses, communities and movements of deepest impact. Which, you'll be delighted to know, is exactly what we explore in this second conversation together... We explore Claire's most impactful life lessons; how she has cultivated her curiosity and intuition (and how you can too); what she had to re-learn about "learning"; curing yourself of pedestalisation; and why community sits at the centre of everything she offers. 

An open, beautiful exchange - with its landing message: that love is everything.

Short - Celebrity Nail Artist Robbie Tomkins on Eating Disorder, Body Dysmophia and learning to love the skin you're in24 févr. 202500:12:44

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

On today's episode on FYWH, we’re offering you a gem from our archive on one of the most popular topic requests we receive - how to navigate the complex and nuanced road of "recovery". So many struggle with ongoing, undiagnosed and life-impacting compulsion - whether to food, substances or forms of social and technology engagement that are fundamentally damaging. The question becomes - in a world ripe with opportunity for dependency and dislocation, how do we find our way home? To mind, to body and to a loving inner voice that advocates for us. 

In this week's episode we hear from the incredible talent and charisma of our favourite Robbie Tomkins - celebrity nail artist and mental health advocate. Robbie shares tenderly and openly about his own experience of body dysmorphia and ED; how his negative self-beliefs started early, how they distorted his identity and actions and his incredible road to recovery, and deepest self-embrace. 

For all those facing these themes, even on the smallest level, know that we see you, you're far from alone, and there are people, places and practices that can guide you back toward yourself. 

With such love, for this heart-opening episode,

A x

Solo - How to Expand, in your life & business22 févr. 202500:28:51

How to expand to your fullest scale; facing the fear of rejection

Beauties, welcome to this week's episode of Finding Your Way Home; a tender and intimate Solo episode on the theme of expansion. How we can allow ourselves to truly, congruently and in full authenticity reach our full scale. 

How often have you / do you find yourself shrinking? Shying away from a next wave of visibility; blocking yourself from the next step in your business; hiding at a social event while playing the pernicious compare~despair game; pretending that you want less for yourself than you really do in your heart; even, keeping mute when your opinion on even the smallest topic veers from popular opinion. 

It's so persuasive - the deep human need for belonging - and unwatched, causes so much compromise in who we allow ourselves to be. So in this week's episode I guide you through the question of "Bigness": what facilitates it, what stands in the way, why we are so afraid for rejection in the face of it, and how we can test-the-theory of our own fears. 

Come on a little journey with me to identify where you sit on the spectrum, and what you can do if you desire greater freedom to expand... And make sure to listen until the end, where I share some of the beautiful things coming up this year, and ways you self-developers can get involved. 

Love, always

Alex Street on identifying your unique "story" - Secrets from a Public Speaking Expert19 févr. 202501:03:38

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

On today's episode of FYWH, we're speaking to Alex Street; master Brand-storyteller and Founder of StoryArc. 

Alex's life has been the material for his work - navigating a wholly unique path to visibility, voice and telling one's own story with truth, compassion and the deepest self-embrace. He is now an internationally-lauded StoryTelling and Speaking Coach, supporting clients 1:1 and in group to find the real clarity of their message - and share that brazenly with the world. 

In our episode, Alex shares his very personal journey - from an early love-affair with the stage to religious service, falling into spiritual darkness and the resurgence of his own unique understanding of faith, divinity and calling. He talks poignantly about the grief and learning of loss, the transformative power of a mother's words and how loving partnership has changed his life. All woven into his insightful guidance on how you as the listener can come closer to your intrinsic purpose - and live from there.  

This episode was truly a wonderful connection; I hope you will be as moved and captivated by it as I was.

Podcast Short - The secrets to truly aligned eating, with Nutritional expert Phoebe Liebling14 févr. 202500:18:53

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

On this week's Minisode, we sit down with one of my favourite people and a veritable font of knowledge on all things Functional Medicine, Health and a Holistic approach to well-being. She needs little introduction to my regular listeners but for those of you that are new to us - welcome to the insight and wisdom of Phoebe Liebling. 

Phoebe has been dedicated to the art and science of functional nutrition for over a decade, supporting thousands of clients toward truly personalised wellness. Through her thriving clinical practice "Liebling Health", her recipes, published writings, speaking events and extensive social media offering, she stewards a next-generation of informed and astute consumers. An audience guided by the desire to live well, in equilibrium, from a place of ease rather than overwhelm. 

In this juicy excerpt from her first episode on the Podcast, Phoebe and I dive into the manifold links between mind and body in the realm of nutrition; how to assess and adapt ones food habits for improved function; and why there really is no "right" or "wrong" where eating is concerned. Phoebe speaks about her own passion for the craft, what her life has experience taught her and how each and every one of us can come home to a more nourishing relationship with food.

Solo Episode - Choosing the Life you Live - lessons from Miami...11 févr. 202500:29:03

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

Something a little different for you today; a Solo Episode, just you and me, exploring how to carve out the life you truly want to live. 

Fresh off the back of my return from an incredible, full, challenging week in Miami, we dive into what it's like to take a "Time-Out" on your day to day - and why that decision can be so meaningful and yet so confronting. What happens when we give ourselves the time to pause, reflect and get truly honest about what we want, what we're enacting, and possibly, the distance between the two....?

I'll also be sharing my biggest takeaways from this incredible transatlantic excursion - from an inside eye on Kate Northrup's incredible Relaxed Money event, to meeting my idols, flirting with a Miami Fireman (when in Rome...) and finding a sense of belonging so far away from "home". For those that have been asking for a little more personal insight into my world, life and flourishing community - this is your moment...

Episode 7 - Dr Bertice Berry03 févr. 202500:56:23

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

On today's episode of FYWH, we’re joined by the unparalleled Dr. Bertice Berry  - Internationally-revered Sociologist, Public Speaker and prolific author. Not to mention, a woman of deep faith, heart and humanitarian commitment. 

Bertice's career and public message speak to the criticality of "living your message"; one of voice, authenticity and expansion beyond the limitations of belief, early childhood experience or the sense of "separated self". Her deepest learnings have come from her own experience - growing into heart-led leadership, navigating bereavement, the surprise adoption of her wonderful children and the humbling learnings of chronic pain.

In this inspiring listen, Bertice shares not only her own journey but her blueprint, garnered through decades in the field, on how to find the 'sound of the genuine' within you. How to open our self-esteem up by listening to and honouring that sound, allowing us to see past the negative self-stories we create day to day. 

What you'll hear is the story of a woman who is deeply connected not only to herself but, her community, her family, her "purpose" (the great "why") and ultimately, to life itself. 

A powerful and empowering episode - and a sign to break free from entrapment by the mind, into the fullness of who we can really be.

Podcast Short - Movement Expert Alex Coleman on building trust in your profoundly capable body24 janv. 202500:16:51

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

On this week's Podcast Short, we’re joined by Alex Coleman - among the “insiders” in the movement space. A dedicated athlete, Pilates teacher and movement specialist, Alex’s career has been built on bringing her rather impressive roster of clients back to full functionality, physical and emotional health. Body up and mind down. 

In this excerpt, Alex discusses the profound importance of movement discipline - and what that structure, repetition and progression over time has taught her about her body, it’s capabilities and what it merits on a day to day basis. So many of us are guilty of neglecting the skin we’re in - from too little movement to too little light, nourishment, human contact. As you’ll hear, Alex has arrived at a blueprint that allows her to find peace, centre and empowered strength both in her stillness and her physicality. In today’s episode, she shares the “how”. 

A beautiful and thought-provoking listen - offering inspiration on how to live a deeper, more connected life; how to identify your own wants and values; and how to identify when your environment or lifestyle no longer fit the person you’re becoming.

Pop Singer Starling on the drive for success, what our trauma teaches us and finding safety in a big & ambitious life17 janv. 202500:58:32

Gorgeous Listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home,

And what a share it is…

Harriet Starling is a singer like no other. Powerful, intuitive, unnervingly emotionally-attuned and profoundly committed to elevating her audiences. To change lives not only through her lyrics, but through provoking conversations on self-worth, core belief and reaching big. A trauma-informed Coach, Somatic Practitioner, Educator and Pop Singer, she defies industry expectations of what a woman in her 30s should think, say, do, and expect from this wild and wonderful life. 

In our tender conversation, fresh off the release of her new single QUEEN, we dive straight into her story & how it has shaped her mission as an artist. Starling shares her personal struggles with family addiction and trauma; the therapist that saved her life (for free); and her musical rise in the haziness of 00s London. She speaks with rare honesty about her own battles with mental health, self-belief and staying faithful to your vision even when “success” feels evasive. We talk fame, visibility, using your voice and finding physiological safety from the inside out. 

It’s a beautiful, vulnerable and truly insightful episode - for my Creatives, my Visionaries, my soulful guides, this one is for you.

Podcast Short - Gillian Stevenson, How to heal your trauma through the somatic practice of Having13 janv. 202500:21:41

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

On this week's Podcast Short, we sit down with Master NLP Coach, Hypnotherapist and Trauma-Informed Havening Practitioner, Gillian Stevenson. 

Gillian is an incredible resource on the intersection between neurology, biology and the sustained healing of complex trauma. As you’ll hear in this beautiful excerpt, Gillian has spent her career pursuing not only the tools for creating deep emotional change, but understanding (and sharing) the science behind them. 

In today’s episode, we dive into her favourite focus topic - a powerful somatic practice called Havening, which is increasingly used in therapeutic interventions for both “external” traumas (PTSD / family conflict / war etc) and perhaps more internalised challenges such as chronic pain, phobia and mental illness. 

You will hear how exactly Havening works physiologically; why it’s so effective in the navigation of sustained mental or physical challenge; and how we can practically apply Havening in any moment we find ourselves to be activated by old / practiced neural pathways. Whether you’re someone working to reduce anxiety, retrain your beliefs or improve sleep, or a practitioner looking for additional somatic tools to support your clients with, this is a powerful and insightful Mini to learn from.

The mystery and magic of Ceremonial Cacao - how ancient medicine can heal the modern heart10 janv. 202501:05:13

Gorgeous listeners, welcome to this week’s episode of Finding Your Way Home

In today’s conversation, recorded just ahead of Christmas, we dive deep into one of my favourite topics - the world of Ceremonial Cacao. Its physiological impact, its indigenous ceremonial use, and its utter potency as a tool for social and spiritual connection. All from the mind and heart of another rare and precious resource - Noa Geva; decades-long Cacao Facilitator and Founder of Cacao Magic, a Costa Rican organisation committed to sharing the benefits of cacao across the globe. 

In Noa’s words, Cacao is for remembrance - of our sanctity, of our intuition and of our role as stewards of an abundant earth. This precious magic cannot be separated from the communities that cultivated it. And as Noa explains, the Talamanca lineage - that of the Bri Bri tribe of native Costa Rica - use Cacao as the primary healer when any form of emotional, physical or societal sickness is identified among them. It is for the healing of the collective - a powerful reminder for those of us in a Western society, so encouraged to forget the communal, in favour of the individual. 

Highlights of this episode include:

  • The physiological and holistic benefits of this ancient fruit
  • Its sacred role and purpose - enhancing heart-connection, emotional attunement, spiritual awakening and a sense of our collective purpose
  • The lineage of the BriBri; Costa Rica’s only extant indigenous tribe, now numbering 15000 across the Talamanca Region 
  • How Cacao Magic came to be born - the tiniest expression of love from an Israeli family who relocated to Costa Rica to build a new life, led from the heart
  • How to use Cacao in your own practice - whether as a civilian, spiritual-explorer or practitioner supporting others
  • The legacy Creation Story of the Bri Bri tribe, and what it has to teach us about living / loving in the modern age
