Find Your Calling

I believe that our purpose on Earth is to grow in love and consciousness and inspire others to do the same. We hear the cliched phrase "love and light" in spiritual circles, but what does it mean? In this episode, I explore two practical ways to incorporate "love and light" into your life. Firstly, your light is needed now more than ever. We light up the world by following what...

On my spiritual journey, I've come to see that while "love and light" are essential, they alone cannot create the positive change we yearn to see in the world. In this episode, I share the pivotal point at which I realised that love is not passive in the face of injustice, but the active force that can shape our world when put into action. I also share a little known story of how mys...

Taking care of yourself doesn't mean you're turning a blind eye to the problems of the world; it means you're preparing yourself to be part of the solution. For those of us in the long game of creating a better world, we need to see this as a marathon and replenish ourselves and look after one another along the way. In this episode, I share some of the things that are helping me to sta...

It's easy in this intense time to lose focus on our shared humanity, as we witness a rise in division, hate and wars. More than ever, it's crucial to recognise our shared humanity and work compassionately towards a world where everyone is free, safe, and at peace. In today's episode I speak about my experiences of the recent referendum and how I worked towards seeing our shared humanit...

It seems so many of us are facing challenges in our lives and collectively. It is the Australian referendum, and now the outbreak of war in Israel and Palestine, along with the ongoing and new tragedies around the world. As well as the challenges and trials we face personally. So how do we maintain hope and faith in the face of challenges? It can be easy to feel overwhelmed and discouraged. In thi...

Capitalist society encourages us to constantly push and hustle to make things happen, which goes against the idea of slowing down and trusting in divine timing. But waiting for divine timing is not a passive process.  Your soul is constantly calling you to your growth and evolution. In this episode we discuss some of the things you can do when you're waiting for bigger pieces of your next step...

We all have that internal voice that can be self-critical and judgmental, that tells us we aren't ready, aren't good enough, or the classic, "who do you think you are to do that?!"

It's tough to face disappointments and setbacks. In my journey, I've faced my fair share of disappointments. Recently, I applied for a job that I was incredibly excited about, but didn't get. Ouch!

Your personality - what work and environments are a fit for you? We delve into each of these...

Rejection happens. You don’t get the job; you lose your job; you miss out on a great opportunity; your project doesn’t get funded; an initiative of yours doesn't get up and running; the client doesn’t sign up; the donor doesn’t give; a relationship or friendship ends… But what if it’s all part of the divine plan? What if it’s opening you up for something else you’re meant for? Or keeping you safe...

In my early 20's I had a life-changing coaching session. The coach introduced me to the idea that every emotion can be traced back to the root of either love or fear. This concept has since become a guiding principle in my life. From that time, I made the conscious choice to be led by love, not fear, even when it meant making difficult decisions like leaving my marriage. Your soul will always...

It is almost certain things will work out differently than you expect on the path to your calling. So be prepared to have your preconceived notions challenged and be open to new possibilities.

In part 1 (Ep. #20), I shared some of the dramatic ways change has happened in my life and career after big decluttering processes. Decluttering isn't just about tidying up our physical spaces; it's about clearing out stagnant energy and making room for new possibilities in our lives. It's like giving the universe a green light to send us what we need. In this episode, I update you on...

Are you afraid to do something new because you're worried about being a beginner? Or do you hold yourself back out of fear what others will think as you learn and grow in a new role, profession, or endeavour? In this episode, we explore the power of giving yourself permission to start afresh and learn new things. I share feedback from workshop attendees of my recent confidence workshops who fo...

Your calling is a journey and process of growth, discovery and evolution. It’s not a fixed destination that you reach then you’re done (phew! got my purpose - sorted!). Rather it’s a dynamic, non-linear (sometimes nonsensical and messy) ongoing process of exploration. This journey requires you trust in your inner guidance, which will lead you to the next right step (and then the next; and the one...

The alternative title to this podcast was "burnout - when you are a dried up sultana with no juice left". As a high achiever with a type-A personality, I have in the past often neglected my own needs for rest and recuperation. Which is supported by societal pressure to constantly move forward at an unsustainable relentless pace. And yet, that kind of pace and pressure leads to burnout. A...

Some of the steps your soul calls you to take may not make logical sense. Trust your intuition and do what feels right to you anyway. Your soul operates on a different level of consciousness than your logical mind. Your soul is connected to your intuition and inner wisdom, which often transcends the limitations of your logical and rational thinking mind. In this episode, I share personal stories o...
