    Michelle Anne welcomes Shane DeSousa to Soul Stories episode 74, reflecting on their deep first conversation at a Gold Coast Lux networking event. Shane, a business development manager and broker at Super Car Insurance Australia and founder of Next Step Football Pathways, shares his passion for helping young people through youth work and disability support, shaped by his parents’ divorce, financial struggles, and work with students with autism. He describes rebuilding himself through therapy, reading, and exercise, and pursuing a late return to soccer, securing a professional trial in Georgia and seeking one in Malta.

    Episode 73 - From Hiding to Healed: Bel Bignell on Weight Loss, Walls and Learning to Love Yourself

    I have been wanting to get Bel Bignell on the podcast for months, and I am so glad we finally made it happen. Because this conversation. I cannot stop thinking about it. I first met Bel at one of our retreats up in the Noosa hinterland. She walked in a little closed off, and I clocked it straight away. Not in a judgmental way. I just knew there was so much more in there waiting to come out. And by the end of that retreat? She was unrecognisable. In the most beautiful way. In this episode, Bel takes us right back. Through the years of masking, people pleasing and hating what she saw in the mirror. Through losing 34 kilos, having a gastric sleeve, and realising the physical change was only ever the beginning. Through mirror work, she has done every single day for six years without missing one. And through the slow, brave process of becoming a woman who actually knows her own worth. She is funny and real and a little bit crude, and I absolutely adore her for all of it. Here is what we get into: Why Bel built a wall around herself and what it finally cost her Her weight loss story and what she discovered on the other side of the scales The daily mirror work practice that changed everything How she uses somatic techniques to move emotion through the body What version three of Bel looks like and why she is still stepping into her The moment at retreat when the wall finally came down Her vision for the next chapter, coaching, community and profit with peace This one is for every woman who has been showing up loud on the outside while quietly falling apart on the inside. Bel has walked that road, and she is not afraid to talk about it. Come and listen. You are going to love her.

    Episode 71 - The Come Down. How to Land Back in Your Chaos (With a New Kind of Peace)

    So, the journey's over, the mind-blowing stuff has happened, and now you’ve gotta go back to putting the washing on and dealing with emails. This is where the real work begins, sister. This episode is dedicated to the learning, the processing, and the messy business of integrating massive truths into an ordinary, chaotic life. For the women out there who struggle to let go of the pressure, I'm talking about the mindset shifts that actually stuck, the lessons I still use today, and the freedom of realising that transformation doesn’t have to be heavy. It can be fun, honest, and freeing. It’s all about remembering: you’ve got this - and it doesn’t have to be so serious. 💖 Note: All names have been removed from this podcast for privacy reasons

    Episode 70 - Head Down, Bum Up... Then My Brain Exploded. (The Actual Trip)

    Let’s get to the juicy bit, shall we? This is the episode where I recount the actual medicine journey -and lovely, it was not a neat, tidy, polished experience. It was chaos, it was ridiculous, and it was the most profound healing I’ve ever experienced. We’re talking about my deepest fears, my biggest truths, and the total surrender that happens when you realise you’re not actually in charge (hello, my fellow control-freaks, I see you!). If you’re a woman who’s used to having everything sorted, prepare yourself. I’m sharing the raw, unedited moments of going to pieces so I could finally put myself back together, for real this time. It’s okay for transformation to be messy. 😉 Note: All names have been removed from this podcast for privacy reasons

    Episode 69 - The Call. When Mushrooms Comes Knocking (And I Finally Answered)

    For all the high-achieving sisters out there who think they can logic their way out of a soul crisis - lovely, I’ve been there. My brain had a million spreadsheets open and my heart was waving a tiny white flag. This episode is the real story of how I ended up saying "yes" to a deep dive that absolutely terrified me. It wasn't a casual decision; it was a full-blown argument with myself. I’m pulling back the curtain on the decision process: the fear, the ridiculous excuses I made, and the quiet, persistent knowing that this was the key to finding my spark again. If you’ve ever felt a quiet pull towards something massive and scary, this one’s for you. Remember, you’ve got this. Note: All names have been removed from this podcast for privacy reasons

    Episode 68 - What if your voice isn’t just sound… But your soul speaking with Sally Prosser

    In this episode, I’m joined by Sally Prosser, voice and public speaking coach and author of her new book Voiceprint - and WOW… this conversation goes deep. We talk about the nerves that hit when it’s time to get on stage, why your voice can shake, disappear, or feel “blocked,” and how your voice is affected by your entire energetic system… not just technique. Sally shares her powerful spiritual journey, including her transition from working in media and journalism into building her own aligned business - and the truth she’s learned along the way: When you choose soul alignment, the universe truly supports you. If you’ve ever felt called to speak, share, teach, lead - but fear has been sitting in your throat… this one will move you.

    Episode 67 From Unfit to Fired Up: My 'Real Life' Guide to Simple, Consistent Movement

    This is my permission slip to ditch the dread - and yours too! Inspired by impromptu podcasts, I hit record while out walking with my fluffy white dog, Milo (yes, you'll hear the real-life leash tangles!). I'm tackling the biggest mental hurdle to feeling great: the misconception that it has to be hard. Approaching 50 and feeling the best I have in my life, I'm sharing the three simple pillars of my transformation. Discover why consistency is more important than intensity, and how just 30 minutes a day, meal planning (even the cursing part!), and having a clear goal can completely reset your body and mindset. You can't out-exercise a bad diet, but I'll show you how to find the energy to change everything.
