Soul Path Alchemy

Most of us were taught early on to hide, ignore, or dismiss our feelings. Anger was “bad,” sadness was “too much,” joy was “silly.” Over time, we learned to disavow what we feel and the cost is high. Repressed emotions don’t vanish; they return as anxiety, depression, physical tension and broken relationships. In this episode, we explore why feelings are not enemies but messengers. They are signal...

A Small Shift to Keep the Soul Work Flowing. https://www.youtube.com/@SoulPathAlchemyPodcast This is a little update from me - Annie - to let you know what’s next for Soul Path Alchemy .

Cheating isn’t random. It isn’t just about lust, boredom, or “a mistake.” There’s always a psychology behind it and it’s usually deeper, darker, and more human than people want to admit. In this episode, I unpack the real reasons people cheat: the unmet needs, the escape routes, the fantasies, the power plays, and the blind spots that make betrayal almost inevitable in some relationships. From the...

Hypervigilance looks like control, like being “on it,” like nothing gets past you. But really? It’s a defence... a way of scanning every room, every text, every sigh from your partner, because some part of you never feels safe enough to switch off. In this episode of Freud Made Me Do It , I break down hypervigilance as a psychological defence: where it comes from, why your nervous system thinks it...

This guided meditation is based on Roberto Assagioli’s classic psychosynthesis exercise of identification and disidentification. It is my version - altered. Designed to help you step out of limiting roles, thoughts, and emotions, the practice creates space for deeper self-awareness and inner freedom. As you journey through mind, body, emotions, and soul, you’ll discover the power of presence and t...

Stonewalling isn’t quiet. It’s loud. It’s the slammed-shut door in the middle of an argument, the blank stare when you’re desperate to connect, the silence that says more than any words could. In this episode, I break down exactly what stonewalling is, why people do it, and the damage it causes in relationships. We’ll dig into the psychology of shutting down, how stonewalling links to shame and fe...

What is “the Ick” that sudden shift from attraction to disgust? Most people call it avoidant attachment, but that’s missing the point and it's definitely only a tiny percentage. In this Relationship Autopsy I break down the real psychology of the Ick: primal disgust, projection collapse, loss of erotic charge, unconscious memory triggers, shadow material, social conditioning, and more. Learn when...

On October 13, Pluto goes direct and the energy is nothing short of transformative.

We’ll look at how Pluto’s direct motion impacts collective themes of power, control, and renewal, as well as the pers...

No one gets into a relationship planning to stop having sex. Yet millions of couples end up there in a quiet, unspoken desert where intimacy has dried up but the relationship still limps on.

A brief thank you message after 100 episodes. For all the support I want to say I am truly grateful!

Most couples don’t break up because of betrayal they break up because they stop hearing each other. In this episode, I unpack how mishearing, mind-reading, projecting, and tone-twisting can sabotage connection faster than any affair. You’ll hear the psychodynamic truth behind distorted listening, why we twist words, and how to stop fighting with our own projections. If you’ve ever wondered why sim...

In this episode of Freud Made Me Do It , we dive into Isolation of Affect, the defense mechanism that lets you talk about the worst thing that ever happened to you as if you were reading the weather. Freud noticed how the mind sometimes severs facts from feelings, keeping you cool and detached on the outside while the emotions stay locked away. We’ll break down how this defense shows up in relatio...

In this episode of Freud Made Me Do It , we dive into humour as a defense mechanism - the Irish favourite and one we all secretly rely on. From Freud’s early notes to Vaillant’s research, we’ll explore how humor works in your psyche: when it helps, when it heals and when it keeps you from facing the truth. You’ll learn why we crack jokes in painful moments, how sarcasm can mask shame and how laugh...

Regret is one of the most powerful and painful emotions we face. It’s the haunting shadow of the life we didn’t live, the choices we didn’t make, the words we never spoke. In this episode, I explore the psychology of regret and the “life unlived,” drawing on depth psychology, psychoanalysis and lived experience. We’ll look at why regret can feel heavier than grief, how it distorts memory, and why...

In this Love That Lasts episode I get into the beauty of directness in relationships. No games and no guesswork. When we hint, when we drop signals, or when we expect someone to read our mind, we set ourselves up for frustration and distance. Directness might feel risky but it is the fastest way to closeness, intimacy, and relief. In this conversation I’ll show you why clear words build strong lov...

In this Freud Made Me Do It episode, we dive into the defense mechanism of self-aggrandisement that subtle (or not so subtle) ego inflation that shows up in conversations, relationships and even on social media.
