The Unashamedly Human Podcast

Its All In The Feeling by Jacquie Forde

Women are a marvel. We juggle careers, families, relationships, and let’s be honest—sometimes entire civilizations (or at least it feels that way). And yet, beneath all the multitasking and magic-making, there’s an invisible force quietly shaping how we experience life: thought. Thought is like that friend who means well but sometimes won’t stop talking. It can uplift us, hold us back, or keep us...

Your Unique Voice by Jacquie Forde

Being grounded is your secret weapon for navigating difficult times—whether you're dealing with menopause, family drama, or just the general madness of life. When you learn to ground yourself, you can face challenges with clarity, humour, and a whole lot of peace of mind. And who knows? Maybe you’ll even start enjoying the ride.

Grandma's Emotional Baggage by Jacquie Forde

Have you ever noticed how the words we use can subtly keep us trapped in our experiences, even when we think we’ve moved on? We often use language like “I’m stuck,” “I’ll never be free of this,” or “This pain is part of who I am.” Without realizing it, these words can reinforce the idea that we are defined by our trauma. Trauma isn’t just a mental or emotional burden—it lives in the body, and some...

Do you ever feel like no matter what you try—therapy, mindfulness, or even self-help books—there’s still a part of you that feels stuck? Maybe you’ve worked through a lot of your trauma mentally, but it’s like your body or emotions haven’t caught up. You’re not alone. Many of my clients come to me after years of traditional therapy, feeling frustrated that they still carry the weight of their past...

I’m writing to share an exciting and transformative shift in my business that I believe will resonate with many of you. After years of working closely with women at different stages of life, I’m focusing my work on menopause—a powerful and often misunderstood time of transition that affects far more than just our bodies. It’s a phase that impacts our mental health, relationships, sense of purpose,...

Imagine your body as a highly advanced storage system—not just for memories, but for emotions, stress, and yes, trauma. Your muscles, fascia, and nervous system are quietly holding onto a mental archive of everything you've experienced—whether you remember it or not. And here’s the kicker: your conscious mind might not even know it. Let’s dig in. The Science of Stored Trauma You know how out of no...

When life gets hard there is a tendency to contract, to hold our breath and freeze. As a family we are experiencing a difficult time with one of my daughters husbands abandoning her and their two wee babies in the most callous and selfish way possible. This audio is about the importance of softening into the hardness of life with all of its twists and turns and bloody blind summits.

I love dreaming and especially when there is a beautiful message from one of my deceased relatives helping me navigate life. Listen in to find out more and subscribe to enjoy more.

How Can I Learn More ? Come join me in my next exploration of the Principles beginning on October 30th 2023. In a world bustling with various belief systems and spiritual paths, the concept of non religious spirituality might seem like a paradoxical enigma. However, the fusion of The Three Principles with a non religious approach offers a transformative journey that can bring about authentic chang...

Not many people understand that the human mind has two main functions; a thinker and a prover. Whatever the thinker thinks, the prover proves that thought to be true. So, if a person thinks they are stupid, their prover proves that thought to be true. If a person thinks they are clever, the prover will prove that to be true also. Over time, the circumstances of your life come into line with whatev...

This weeks podcast discusses the benefits of emotional regulation across the generations to understand ourselves more fully and heal the past. I use examples within my family to highlight how easy it was for previous generations to misunderstand their lives and mental health because there was a distinct lack of information to educate and inform them that their experiences were normal and not somet...

This weeks podcast is with my Tech Guru Susan Wheeler Hall who is affectionately known as Suzy Web. We all love what is familiar,don't we? After all what we did yesterday worked well and and kept us alive until today. In evolutionary terms that is a massive success, so we are all naturally inclined to use old habits of behaviour and thought. However if you are an online coach, counsellor, self hel...
