Lionheart

Qing

We often think of courage as one big leap. But it’s also a montage of small, ordinary moments where you choose different. Where you begin to trust that voice within you, and let wonder and curiosity lead. Hosted by Qing, a writer-in-hiding who is stepping into the light, Lionheart uncovers the everyday steps that lay out our paths towards a life of freedom, joy, and purpose. We talk creativity, personal growth, and solo entrepreneurship (and how they're all connected!). Each episode is a call to dream big and act small, because the mundane is truly where the magic begins 🪲

    2. The birth of Lionheart (fears of speaking & finding my voice)

    🦁 Show Notes So many podcasts exist, it almost seems like a cliche to start one. But every podcast has a unique origin story: something that made it possible, that made it feel important, to share your voice with the world. Qing dives into childhood incidents that shaped her fear of speaking her truth, experiences that helped her to work through it, and how Lionheart was shaped by her creative explorations and experiences from being an avid podcast listener herself. Highlights: How Qing fell down the podcast rabbit hole thanks to her dad’s bad driving skills 🤡Lionheart’s beginnings as an essay ideaA clear intuitive message from the universe to start the podcastUnexpected “side quest” explorations that helped Qing befriend her voiceQing’s vision for the podcast and her greatest wishes for Lionheart’s listeners ❤️‍🔥📢 PSA: Let’s honour the cultural roots of “chakra” and pronounce it the Sanskrit way! We're still unlearning and relearning it too 🙇🏻‍♀️ Resources mentioned: Concept of personal development as a spiral by Carl Jung (and a lovely illustration of a reframe of cycles as spirals) Memory Reconsolidation (on schemas & reactivation windows) by Dr Tori Olds Important note: This video explainer creates awareness but should not replace the need for professional support in working through your traumas. Aside from journalling and help from friends, Qing has been supported on her healing journey by a somatic therapist, an energy work practitioner, and former teammates certified in coaching. The Cosmic Collective podcast by Maddison Brooke (Endora Inc.) About: Lionheart is a podcast about all the small things that make up a big life. Look out for new episodes on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of every month! 🙋🏻‍♀️ Connect with us on Instagram ⁠@lionheart.podcast 🎵 Our sunbeam of a theme song is ⁠⁠"A New Life" by Francesco Mango⁠ (via Pixabay)
