    Episode 51- What if you don't need fixing?

    What if you don't need fixing? So much of personal growth begins with the quiet assumption that something is wrong with us. But what if the real invitation isn't to fix yourself ... but to understand yourself? In this episode, Keryn Rose and Dr Vicki Haspel explore how awareness creates space for choice, why understanding often comes before change, and how curiosity can soften self-judgement. Together they reflect on life's natural seasons, trusting your own timing, and the possibility that your patterns are not evidence of something broken—but signposts pointing you towards remembrance. As always, Vicki closes the episode with a tarot card. This week's Page of Swords arrives as the Winds of Change—a gentle reminder to rise above the noise, observe life with childlike curiosity, and trust that understanding unfolds in its own perfect time. Perhaps you were never broken. Perhaps you were never broken. Perhaps you were simply remembering who you have always been In this episode:• Understanding before change• Awareness as a doorway to transformation• Trusting your own seasons of growth• Curiosity over self-criticism If this conversation resonates with you, we'd love you to follow the podcast, leave a review, and share it with someone who might need this reminder today.

    Episode 50 - Do I Matter? The Quiet Question Beneath So Much of Life

    Beneath so many of our thoughts, fears, decisions and longings lies a question we rarely say out loud: Do I matter? In this heartfelt conversation, Keryn and Vicki explore one of the most universal human experiences — the desire to be seen, valued, acknowledged and to know that our presence in the world has meaning. Together they unpack the difference between external validation and inner worth, why success and recognition don't always answer the deeper question, and how life can quietly invite us to remember something we may have forgotten: You matter simply because you are here. Through personal stories, honest reflections and gentle wisdom, they explore: ✨ Why the need to matter sits beneath so many of life's questions✨ The difference between being acknowledged and feeling worthy✨ How old wounds can shape the way we see ourselves✨ The shift from asking "Do I matter?" to declaring "I matter."✨ Belonging, identity and the courage to redefine ourselves during times of change✨ What it means to remember who you are beneath the roles, titles and expectations✨ Why your existence alone has value As always, the conversation concludes with a beautiful tarot reflection, as the Ace of Cups reminds us that before we question our worth, we may simply need to replenish our hearts and allow ourselves to receive. If you've ever felt unseen, overlooked, uncertain of your place in the world, or found yourself wondering whether you're making a difference, this episode is a gentle invitation home to yourself. Because perhaps the answer has never been something you needed to earn.Perhaps it is simply something you are here to remember. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 49 - Doorways: The Small Choices That Change Everything

    What if change doesn't require you to burn everything down? In this episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn Rose and Dr Vicki Haspels explore the surprising power of everyday doorways — the small choices, invitations, and moments that quietly shape the direction of our lives. Inspired by a simple decision to have coffee in a different café, this conversation wanders through intuition, curiosity, nervous system safety, trust, and the magic of seeing life through fresh eyes. Together they explore: ✨ Why small choices can create profound change✨ The relationship between familiarity and growth✨ How intuition often guides us before the mind catches up✨ The difference between forcing change and following an invitation✨ Why every day offers more possibilities than we realise Because sometimes the same life can feel completely different when you walk through a different doorway. A Guiding Message from the Queen of Swords  The Queen of Swords arrived with a clear message: Stop overthinking the doorway. You don't need all the answers before you begin. Sometimes clarity arrives after you've taken the first step. The doorway is open. Will you walk through? If this conversation resonates with you, we'd love you to follow the podcast and join our growing Substack community, where we continue exploring energy, intuition, everyday magic, and the many paths of remembrance. Until next time, may life surprise you with a doorway worth opening. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 48 - The Space Between Stories

    Who are we when an old version of ourselves no longer fits, but the next chapter has yet to reveal itself? In this episode, Keryn and Vicki explore the often uncomfortable, yet deeply transformative, space between stories. The seasons of life where identities shift, roles change, and certainty gives way to possibility. Together they reflect on the endings that shape us, the grief that can accompany change, and the wisdom that emerges when we stop trying to rush toward answers. Through personal stories and heartfelt conversation, they explore how presence, self-compassion, and trust can help us navigate life's transitions with greater ease. Through the lenses of Salt, Sage, and Stardust, they discuss: Why the space between stories can feel so disorienting• The grief of letting go of familiar identities and ways of being• The difference between seeking certainty and finding presence• How the body carries wisdom through times of transition• Heart-mind harmony and the role of self-compassion• Trusting life's unfolding, one step at a time• Viewing change as a process rather than a single event• Finding wonder, curiosity, and possibility in the unknown The conversation reminds us that endings and beginnings are rarely separate events. One story may be dissolving while another is quietly emerging. The invitation is not to figure everything out, but to remain in relationship with yourself as life unfolds. As always, the episode concludes with a Tarot reflection, where the Wheel of Fortune offers a timely reminder that life is always moving, changing, and inviting us forward. Whether you're navigating a career change, the end of a relationship, retirement, a personal awakening, or simply finding yourself between versions of who you've been, this episode is an invitation to trust the space between stories. Maybe the unknown is not empty. Perhaps it is preparing you for what comes next. We’d love for you to join our growing Salt, Sage & Stardust community over on Substack, where we continue the conversations beyond the podcast with reflections, stories, insights, and soul-led exploration.

    Episode 47 - Who Would You Be Without Your Identity?

    What happens when the labels we’ve carried for years begin to fall away? In this deeply reflective episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn Rose and Dr Vicki Haspels explore the question: Who are you beyond the roles you perform? Together, they unravel the identities we so often attach ourselves to — mother, wife, healer, professional, caregiver, “the strong one,” “the sensible one” — and explore what happens when life changes, relationships shift, children grow up, careers evolve, or old versions of ourselves no longer fit. Through the three perspectives of Salt, Sage & Stardust, this conversation gently examines: How identity is shaped through family, culture, roles, and responsibility• Why the nervous system can struggle when familiar identities dissolve• The difference between a role you play and the essence of who you are• How grief, freedom, growth, and remembrance often arrive together• Why identities can become armour — and what happens when we loosen the grip• The invitation to reconnect with the part of yourself that existed before any label did Keryn and Vicki also reflect on:– motherhood and changing family dynamics– ageing and evolving life stages– self-worth and self-protection– soul remembrance and authentic expression– the fear of change and the beauty of becoming The episode closes with a powerful Seven of Cups tarot reflection — reminding us that identity is not a prison, but a vehicle through which we experience life. This is a conversation for anyone navigating transition, reinvention, grief, freedom, or the quiet question: “If I’m no longer who I used to be… who am I now?” You are not your labels.You are the presence beneath them. We’d love for you to join our growing Salt, Sage & Stardust community over on Substack, where we continue the conversations beyond the podcast with reflections, stories, insights, and soul-led exploration.

    Episode 46 - Devotion, Not Discipline: Healing the Relationship Between Structure, Shame & Self-Trust

    There comes a moment in life when we realise the routines we created to “fix” ourselves are often the very things exhausting us. In this deeply honest and soul-stirring episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn Rose and Dr Vicki Haspels explore the powerful difference between discipline that is rooted in shame and structure that is born from self-devotion. Together, they unpack the hidden ways many of us learned to associate discipline with punishment, productivity, performance, and worthiness — especially through generational expectations, rigid routines, and the pressure to constantly prove ourselves. But what if discipline was never meant to feel like a prison? What if true structure was actually an act of self-care? Through the three pillars of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn and Vicki explore:• the nervous system’s response to pressure and control• the body’s wisdom in recognising what no longer fits• the difference between guidance and self-surveillance• the “psychic prisons” we unknowingly create through rigid routines• why shame keeps us disconnected from ourselves• the importance of flexibility, compassion, and self-trust• returning to joy, wholeness, and the freedom to be fully ourselves This conversation is a gentle but powerful reminder that healing is not about becoming someone else. It is about remembering who you already are. And perhaps true discipline is not punishment at all…Perhaps it is devotion to the life you came here to live. This episode also includes a beautiful Tarot reflection on The Chariot card, a symbol of emotional balance, self-awareness, direction, and learning to move through life guided by inner truth rather than external pressure. If you have ever struggled with routine, burnout, perfectionism, guilt, procrastination, or the feeling that you must earn your worth through productivity, this episode is for you. You are not broken.You are simply being invited to create a life that fits your soul. If this conversation resonated with you, we would love to invite you into our Salt, Sage & Stardust Substack community - a space for deeper conversations, shared wisdom, and gentle reminders that you are never walking this path alone. Come sit with us awhile.We’d love to have you there. ✨ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Episode 45 - The Loneliness of Becoming

    Growth is beautiful, and necessary, but it is rarely loud. Sometimes becoming asks us to step away from what was familiar. Relationships shift. Old identities fall away. The life that once felt comfortable no longer fits and in that in-between space, loneliness can arrive. In this heartfelt episode, Keryn Rose and Dr. Vicki Haspels explore the sacred discomfort of personal growth. The quiet grief that comes when life asks us to evolve. Together they unpack the difference between loneliness and aloneness, why the nervous system often interprets growth as anxiety, and how solitude can become one of the most powerful spaces for self-remembrance. This conversation is an invitation to stop seeing loneliness as something broken and begin recognising it as part of becoming. Sometimes the space between who you were and who you are becoming is not emptiness. It is preparation. In this episode, we explore: – the difference between loneliness and aloneness– why growth often feels like grief before it feels like freedom– how the body signals change before the mind understands it– nervous system activation during periods of transformation– learning to trust yourself in seasons of uncertainty This is a conversation about self-trust, inner safety, and learning how to stand fully in your own company. Because sometimes the person you’ve been waiting for is you.  Tarot Card Wisdom The Four of Pentacles beautifully reflected the heart of this conversation. It speaks of holding on tightly whether to old identities, familiar relationships, past versions of ourselves, or the comfort of what once felt safe. This card reminds us that growth often asks us to loosen our grip. When we cling too tightly to what has already served its purpose, we create more fear, resistance, and suffering. The Four invites us to build inner stability rather than external control, to trust that change is not here to take something from us, but to make space for something new. In the loneliness of becoming, this card asks us to soften, release, and remember that what is truly meant for us does not require fear to hold it in place. A gentle invitation If this conversation speaks to you, we’d love to welcome you to our Substack community where we share deeper reflections, extended conversations, and behind-the-scenes wisdom from Salt, Sage & Stardust.

    Episode 44 - Living With the Past: Carrying the Story, Not the Weight

    How do we live with our past without becoming trapped by it? In this deeply reflective episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn and Dr Vicki Haspels explore the relationship we hold with our past: our childhood stories, regrets, grief, inherited family patterns, old identities, and the versions of ourselves we no longer recognise. Is your past something you carry, or has it been carrying you? Together, they unpack the difference between honouring the past as a foundation and allowing it to become a prison. Through the lenses of Salt, Sage, and Stardust, they explore how healing happens not by living in old stories, but by creating safety, awareness, and freedom in the present moment. This conversation moves through:• how the body stores memory and trauma• why the nervous system often lives in past tense• the power of self-forgiveness and compassion• recognising when old stories are still shaping present choices• how awareness becomes the doorway to freedom• why your past is part of your soil, not your sentence• shifting from living through memory to living through meaning And finally, a beautiful reminder:If you woke up this morning, you made it.Today is a brand new page. Your past is not a prison.It is the ground beneath your feet. The best is still to come.  If this conversation stirred something within you, we’d love to invite you deeper into the world of Salt, Sage & Stardust on our Substack page. It’s a space for those who are curious about healing, remembrance, self-awareness, and the sacredness hidden in everyday moments.
