Pure Heart Podcast

Communication is so much more than the words we speak. In this episode, Laura and I explore how the way we communicate is deeply connected to our nervous system, our past experiences, and the relationship we have with ourselves. We speak about finding the courage to express what is truly in our hearts, creating safe spaces where people feel heard, and why listening is one of the most powerful form...

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Bianca (skin health expert) for a beautiful conversation about skin, self-care, and the deeper messages our body is always sending us . What I loved most about this episode is how simple and grounding it feels. We speak about the skin not as something to fight with or cover up, but as something to listen to . Because so often, what is happening on the surfac...

There comes a point where life asks us to stop gripping so tightly. To stop trying to control every next step. To stop believing that fear is wisdom. And instead, to come back into the heart and ask,  Who am I going to be in this moment? In this episode, we also spoke about leadership in the workplace, and how true leadership is not just about results, pressure, or performance. It is about  connec...

Hayley from Purposeful Pursuits has spent close to 20 years in education and business transformation, helping people create real impact through workshops, programs, and systems. But what I love most is where the conversation actually goes… into the inner journey that so many people try to skip. If you’re in business, building something, leading a team, or simply wanting to feel more grounded in th...

This week on the podcast, I’m sharing a conversation that feels very close to the heart of what we believe in here at Pure Heart. I sat down with Dr. Karyn (from The Soundmill Centre), whose journey began in speech pathology and has grown into something so much deeper — a way of working with children and families that is not only skilled and intelligent, but deeply present, compassionate, and hear...

This week on the podcast, I sat down with Aknes to speak about  sound healing  — what it is, why it matters, and why it is so much more accessible than many people think. One of the questions I asked her right at the beginning was whether you need a musical background to do this work. Her answer was simple:  no, you don’t. And I loved that, because I know how many people quietly feel drawn to soun...

Your chart is not a verdict. It is a living map — a way to notice the patterns that return, to understand the small places where you get stuck, and to begin choosing differently in the moments that matter. This offering sits alongside the work we do here: nervous‑system regulation, heart‑led communication and steady, repeatable practice. It’s practical, accessible and written so you can use it at...

So many of you have been reaching out asking how to take what we talk about on the podcast and actually use it in your own life—without feeling like you need to invest in a big program before you even know if it's right for you. I've been sitting with that, and I wanted to create something that gives you a gentle entry point—a way to dip your toes in, see if it helps, and then decide if yo...

This week's conversation is one I've been wanting to share for a while now, and it's especially for anyone who works with people— whether you're a coach, therapist, hairdresser, teacher, or simply holding space for your own family. Have you ever given someone all the right tools, the perfect strategy, the clearest steps forward—and watched them stay stuck anyway? You can see what t...

In this episode, I sat down with my daughter Jess to talk about her journey from social anxiety and people-pleasing to learning how to show up authentically, ground herself when things get overwhelming, and trust her own intuition. What started as planning her own intimate wedding became a powerful lesson in presence over perfection, and how focusing on  feeling  instead of appearances shifts ever...

Whether you have children in school, are curious about homeschooling, or simply feel a nudge to live more intuitively and bravely, Jess’s story will speak to that part of you that knows: there are more options than we’ve been told. If you’ve ever felt a quiet “this doesn’t feel right” about something in your life—but weren’t sure you were allowed to question it—this episode is for you. My hope is...

This episode is about why I created the Pure Heart Connection Method . Because clarity without grounding is just more fog. And action without self-trust is just more anxiety. This method helps you come out of your head and into your heart so you can actually be present with what's in front of you. It's about releasing the old energy keeping you stuck, so you're not dragging the past into your new...

What I love about this conversation is how honestly Brandi shares her path from feeling powerless and overwhelmed to remembering herself as a spiritual, energetic being with choice. We talk about the gentle, practical ways she began to shift: learning boundaries, asking for help, allowing herself to receive, reconnecting with her breath, and seeing her experiences not as punishments, but as invita...

This week on the Pure Heart Podcast, Tracy and I slow down for a gentle, honest conversation about what it truly means to heal our family story—and why this kind of healing can take courage, patience, and a willingness to let yourself begin again. You’ll hear heartfelt reflections on moving through cycles of change: how the patterns from childhood echo through our careers, relationships, and even...

Have you ever wondered why we hold on so tightly to what hurts us, even when we know it’s time to let go? This week’s episode gently cracks open the secret world of addiction—not just with substances, but anything we reach for when life feels overwhelming or we’re missing something inside. Tracy Grace joins me to unravel what’s really at the heart of addictive patterns: not weakness, but unhealed...

Have you ever wondered, what if the very thing keeping us stuck isn't what happened to us—but how we've learned to survive it? This week, our incredible friend Tracy Grace shares something eye-opening with us: "I realised I was addicted to my own trauma." In this raw, transformative conversation, Tracy reveals how she went from chronic people-pleasing and burnout to becoming a po...

In this episode, we open up about our own stories—how childhood patterns of not being listened to can echo into adulthood. Vanessa recalls moments in past relationships where asking to be heard was brushed aside, and how learning to meet herself with compassion—and set boundaries with love—became her path to healing. She also speaks about the rituals that keep her grounded: ten-minute check-ins, h...

What happens when life presses those familiar buttons, and old stories of “not enough” and self-doubt bubble up again—no matter how much inner work you’ve already done? This week, Vanessa and I sat down for a truly raw conversation about what it means to be human, vulnerable, and still growing, even as we teach and support others. You’ll hear Vanessa’s honest reflections on overthinking, feeling u...

Vanessa's story will resonate deeply if you've ever felt caught between achievement and authenticity, between doing and being. She began like many of us—searching for answers outside herself, striving to meet the world's expectations. Through relationships, early motherhood, and her own spiritual awakening, she discovered that true beauty and healing had nothing to do with perfect rout...

This week’s episode is an honest, heartfelt exploration into what self-mastery really looks and feels like beyond the clichés. We’re diving deep into the kind of growth that begins with knowing yourself, coming home to your heart, and using your challenges as true catalysts for transformation. You'll hear stories of what happens when you start choosing responsibility for your own mind and ener...

This week’s episode is a heartfelt invitation to come home to yourself—to remember that life’s purpose isn’t a task to conquer, but a relationship to nurture with your deepest self. Together, we explore the questions so many of us quietly ask: “Why am I here?” “What am I meant to do?” and “How do I even begin to find out what ignites me inside?” In this gentle conversation, you’ll hear that your t...

This week on the Pure Heart Podcast, we gently unravel the journey of connecting with your true self and honouring the progress you've already made— even when your mind tells you otherwise. You'll hear heartfelt stories about realising that sometimes, what we're striving for has actually arrived—the dream job, the loving relationships, the sense of purpose. Yet, so often our identity i...

This week’s episode offers a gentle, honest exploration into a recurring theme that visits us all: what we call “self-sabotage.” However, what if it isn’t sabotage at all, but simply the pull of what’s familiar when life asks us to grow? We unpack how easy it is to judge ourselves when we slip back into old patterns or pause on our path. Instead of criticism, this conversation invites you to see t...

We asked the question: What voice are you listening to? This simple question opened up something profound—a gentle exploration of that constant mental chatter we all know so well, the comfort we find in familiar patterns, and that quiet moment when you realise you can choose presence over autopilot. We discovered together how life begins to shimmer when you start tuning into your heart's wisdo...

"If we're already whole, why does healing feel so hard?" Aknes and I dove deep into this together — two practitioners who've walked our own messy, beautiful paths and now hold space for others on theirs. We talked about how most of us are approaching healing backwards - as we are trying to add wholeness to ourselves instead of gently clearing away what's covering it up. What if you're not broken?...
