Shine Love & Light on...Conscious Eating 21.02.2021

We live in a society obsessed with diet and weight loss yet the facts around what we eat, and all the choices that are available to us, are often hidden, loaded or difficult to talk about.    In this episode I chat with Steph Schall, a plant-based cook, recipe developer and founder of Steph Schall Hub (a face-to-face & online cooking school), to shine love and light on Conscious eati...

Shine Love & Light On...Womanly Cycles & Menopause 03.10.2020

Menopause is one of those topics that people avoid because it's tied up with the suggestion that you're washed up and over the hill once you reach menopause.

Shine Love & Light On...Womb Wisdom 03.10.2020

Unless you want to have a baby, most women don't really care much for their womb.  It creates a monthly bleed, discomfort or is otherwise is out of sight and out of mind. Inconvenient womens business that is not discussed. But there's so much more to this wondrous part of our body. It's a portal of life, a source of creativity, and a barometer of our overall health and wellbeing. Not something for...

Shine Love & Light On...Your Creative Voice 03.10.2020

Shine Love & Light on...Losing a Loved One 03.10.2020

The loss of a loved one is our worst fear. And for many, it's a reality. But it's also a reality that we're not encouraged or comfortable talking about. So the person experiencing loss can feel very isolated, alone and unsure of what's normal. People don't know what to say, so they don't say anything at all.  In this episode, I was so fortunate to be joined by Lucinda Pyman who generously shares a...

Shine Love & Light On...Spirituality 16.03.2020

What is spirituality? And how is it different from religion?  Is it all purple velvet, feathers, crystals and incense?

Sexual Abuse is a shadow aspect of our society that is hidden and shrouded in shame.  And it impacts us all, regardless of whether or not we have experienced it first hand.  Until we take it seriously and bring it out into the open, offenders, and the outdated systems that support them, will continue to gain and misuse their power while those experiencing it will live without the support they need...
