Circle of Life Podcast with Ellen Travassaros

If you are someone who is really dialled into the collective field, and can feel the threads of fear, contraction, and the unknown moving through - this episode is for you. In times like this, now and in the future - how I choose to respond has more weight than I often realise. Sometimes I want to collapse, other times I am fierce and I rise. Both are correct and make sense. Both need just as much...

What is depth work and how does it differ from self-improvement? How do you know if you’re really ready to deepen? What does it really mean to participate in depth work? This is where we’re going in this episode. This one packs a hearty punch, for sure. It’s raw, honest, and true. My intention for bringing this episode earth side is to create a placeholder for those of you who, like me, truly valu...

Friends, I’m really honoured to bring you this episode. As many of you know, health is my number one value in life. It is the foundation that holds and supports everything else, including the work I do in the world. Reclaiming my health was my entry into the world of healing and self-mastery. As such, I’m not the kind of woman who cares for quick fixes or ways to detox or flush my body without dee...

Within these words you’ll receive my very passionate take on transitioning from old ways of being to new ways of being including — * How new growth even happens * What to look out for and let go of * What to practice * And where to better place your energy and attention The journey...

Nature has this way of lifting the veil on what truly matters. And something I sense matters a lot right now, is your ability to discern what is right for you and what is not. In this mighty age of information, how does one stay rooted in truth and not be influenced by everything she see's on the internet? How does one know if what's being shared is applicable to her or not? This episode doubles a...

Through shedding light on my inner world, it is my hope you see and remember more of yourself and perhaps anything you've forgotten that is important.

It's a personal update from me that transforms into a beautiful invitation to do more than simply be awar...

If you’re ever feeling disconnected or untethered from life, love, or purpose, or all of the above, this episode is for you. “Don’t carry today’s closure into tomorrow, if you can help it.” Living open is no small thing.
