METAMORPHOSIS

Janelle is a gorgeous soul I connected with in Hiriketiya in 2023 - a women's empowerment coach with a passion for drinking too much coffee, surfing and living life with an open heart! We met through a mutual friend and had a coffee together, and then ended up spending almost every minute of the next 2 months of rainy season together before she moved back to New Zealand. This episode is a beau...

I'm having the most magical time in India, exploring so many things and having so many interesting conversations! This is something I've been thinking about and talking about A LOT: Why are we so obsessed with everything saving us energy, obsessed with spending less energy and things being more 'convenient'? Especially when the most beautiful connections, experiences and opportunit...

What if instead of being on a wild rollercoaster of hormones, mood swings and emotions that somehow take us by surprise every month - we knew EXACTLY what kind of mood to expect to be in exactly which week of the month?! And what if we could use the energy of that mood to support our life, our productivity, our socialising and work and relationships?!! Cha has been living in alignment with her cyc...

The fastest and most beautiful way I've discovered to learn more about myself is this: to meet as many new people as possible and to connect with them as deeply and with as much curiosity as possible! We human beings understand things through CONTEXT, so the more different types of context you give yourself in the form of other human beings, the more chances you have to explore all of the fasc...

Lorena is a soul-sister I was lucky enough to connect with and spent lots of time with in Hiriketiya, she’s so passionate about Human Design and shares so much pure gold in this episode! Human Design has been one of the most life-changing discoveries for me over the last few years, an INCREDIBLE tool for self-discovery and self-understanding! I find it to be so validating, and such a powerful way...

We're living in a world that has become so homogenised - where we're all becoming more and more similar (sometimes intentionally, sometimes automatically). We're all doing similar kinds of jobs with similar skill sets, with similar hobbies and interests, similar world-views, similar outfits and lifestyles ... And what's so wrong with that? Nothing other than the fact that when you&...

I don't know about you, but I certainly would LOVEEE for 2025 to be an absolutely exceptional year (I already feel that it will be!) And given that we are all such creative powerhouses in our life, we get to CREATE an exceptional year! These are the top 3 things I'm focusing on in 2025 to amplify my creative power, my ability to follow the breadcrumbs of life and to TRULY, WILDLY, MADLY en...

This is part 2 of my Internal Family Systems exploration with the gorgeous Cha (somatic IFS guide and multi-passionate artist!), in this episode we get a chance to dive deeper into some of the juicy topics that came up in part 1!   We explore common self-sabotaging patterns that come up when we’re trying to change our behaviour patterns with regard to our specific parts -  manager parts that are t...

It’s the first day of 2025, and it’s that time of year where we’re thinking about all the things we might want to create and achieve this year, new years resolutions, big juicy plans, maybe tooooo many big plans, or maybe just confusion and overwhelm because you just don’t know what you want to create or how?!  Instead of kicking off the year with a sense of overwhelm and chaos, let’s just learn t...

2024 has been my most expansive, freeing, exciting year yet - I’ve learned some incredible big lessons and had so many beautiful experiences!  AAAAND so that 2025 can be EVEN MORE audacious and expansive and exciting and freeing - here is what I’ve decided to leave in 2024: Being realistic and playing it small  Stagnancy  Entitlement (when it comes to our health)  Overthinking and rigidity  And it...

This episode I'm with the gorgeous Ophelia from @nutritionwithophelia - she's a Clinical Nutritionist and a mum based in Phillip Island, passionate about using food and nutrition to create a state of joy and energy so that we can get the most out of our life! We discuss the basics of nutrition (essential before we try to optimise with supplements or other 1% practices!), how to balance a s...

Sometimes it's very tricky to navigate the path between harsh self-discipline and fluffy self-love! I discuss this a lot with my clients, with friends, with myself! There are so many conflicting things in popular psychology, in social media, in modern society- and the more tangled up we get, the more challenging it is to figure out how to actually love ourself and create a beautiful life. So h...

Recently I was invited to be a part of an intimate little cacao ceremony for a full moon, and part of that experience involved a meditation. During that meditation, I had the most profoundly moving experience where I met a future version of me (just 2 years in the future) on a beach, and she had the most wonderful message to share with me. So I wanted to share this experience with you too! The mor...

I've been meeting the most incredible people in town this last month, and of course as you're building new friendships you inevitably get asked how you got to where you are today? Why are you doing the work you do? Why here in Sri Lanka, why in this way? And seeing as I make a lot of new friends, I have this conversation a lot - so I thought I'd share it here too! What was it like working with peo...

The gorgeous Mimmi Johansson (@mimmiamjohansson) joined me in this episode for a beautiful conversation about her own journey alchemising and releasing trauma that was manifesting in her body as chronic pain/illness over many years, and how she discovered using yoga as a way to connect to her body and create safety within. Mimmi lives in Hiriketiya with me and teaches Trauma Yoga and self-healing...

Chamonix is an absolute POWERHOUSE of creative, passionate energy - we met by chance in a beautiful place in Nusa Ceningan a few years ago, instantly connected and have been close friends ever since! Cha is a somatic Internal Family Systems (IFS) guide, and this particular episode was her interviewing me for her own podcast - it is an explosion of our deepest passions where we discover how TRUE SE...

Why do we so often self-sabotage when big adventures and opportunities come our way? And then we're so annoyed with ourselves afterwards, because maybe this was something that we had been saying we wanted for a long time, and when it appeared we managed to talk ourselves out of it, or we dropped the ball, we didn't reply in time, we missed the opportunity... And then we make it mean something pers...

Alena is a clinical naturopath and nutritionist from New Zealand and an absolute genius at helping her social media community and clients live more slowly, with more intention and a much more regulated nervous system. With 'nervous system regulation' being such a buzz concept in the social media space lately, this episode dives into what it actually MEANS to live with a regulated nervous system, w...

Cheerful optimism is an incredibly powerful place to live our life from - not in the sense of being naive or as 'toxic positivity', but in the sense of intentionally creating our own rose-tinted glasses. This isn’t about being forceful and having expectations that we’re constantly disappointed by, it is about creating our own VORTEX of dynamic, playful energy that has it's own powerful magnetism a...

Make a coffee and have a little chat with me while I explore some concepts of my Human Design! This is something I'm navigating in real-time, learning to channel my inner strength as a form of POWER instead of a form of FORCE. Force is a tricky energy to work with, it's often very attached to specific outcomes, inflexible, contracted and sometimes destructive. What if we could use it as a more dyn...

We all have the same foundational physiology as elite athletes, the same muscle fibers, metabolic systems, and neural pathways that work the same way for everyone! So why do elite athlete bodies perform to such a high standard? How do they ask so much of their bodies and KNOW that their body (and mind!) is going to deliver? The human body is ENORMOUSLY adaptable, with huge capacity to grow stronge...

To experience the big, juicy MAGIC of life, we have to be radically open to ALL OF LIFE. We have to be in the game of life - getting messy, trying and failing, loving, learning, growing! We can’t just be observing from the sidelines trying to plan the plan and analyse what the best course of action might be without ever actually taking any action. We have to get some skin in the game! And to prope...

It’s the full moon in Taurus (and final supermoon of the year!) today and there’s a real vibe of ‘letting go’ with these super moons. So often we conceptualise ‘letting go’ as a mental task that we have to complete somehow, and end up going around and around in circles with it endlessly - and that’s because we’ve really got a lot of stuck, stagnant emotional energy trapped inside of us that needs...

Life is already unpredictable enough without extra background anxiety keeping us at a higher baseline level of stress. There are two specific things that create a HUGE amount of background noise and stress: BEING INDECISIVE NOT DOING WHAT YOU SAY YOU’RE GOING TO DO  This podcast dives into how to get rid of this background anxiety of life, explores my own journey with the most crippling decision p...

One of you gorgeous listeners asked me this the other day - “what should I do if I can’t just burn everything down and move to a tropical island? I’m going to be working in my 9-5 for the next few years and I’m okay with it, but I also want to make my life better and have more energy”  This is a great question, so this podcast episode dives into EXACTLY what I did when I was in this exact same sit...
