    Episode 3: Decode Desire

    In this pivotal third deep dive, we complete the circuit—from reflection to embodiment and action. Explore how to decode desire as divine guidance, anchor change in the body, protect your attention in the digital age, and channel anxiety into grounded, regenerative action. Tarot threads include the Ace of Swords, High Priestess, Eight of Cups, and Wheel of Fortune. We finish with a call to radical worthiness: would the version of you from a year ago recognise your mind today?

    Episode 2: Healing the Inner Child

    What if the guilt you carry isn’t yours? What if the part of you that people-pleases, overworks, or shuts down emotions is actually a younger part still trying to feel safe? In this tender, reflective fireside conversation, we dive into the psychology and soul work of inner child healing—exploring themes like emotional shutdown, chronic guilt, people-pleasing, and the invisible scripts we inherit from childhood. You’ll learn how guilt can disguise itself as duty, how inner reactivity often comes from a younger version of you, and how to begin the sacred process of reparenting yourself with compassion and presence. We unpack the science of crying, the power of visualisation, and tools like schema therapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS). You’ll also meet the concept of the “Inner Council”—an evolving group of archetypes inside you—and discover how to build real intimacy with yourself. This is not a podcast about perfection or quick fixes. It’s a space for deep remembering: that you were never broken, and that reclaiming your energy isn’t selfish—it’s sacred. ✨ Includes reflective prompts and somatic practices for the days that feel heavy.
