    Wait Am I Psychic? Spirits From The Past, Signs From The Future

    Ever had that feeling like there’s more going on than meets the eye? This week, we dive deep with June, a psychic medium who never saw it coming—until she did. From doubts to full-on revelations, June talks us through her journey of discovering her psychic abilities, the moment she realised she wasn’t just imagining it, and how she started trusting the messages from the other side. But here’s the twist—June’s not alone in this. We explore how anyone might have the same abilities if they’re willing to listen, trust their intuition, and stop second-guessing. Whether you’re sceptical, curious, or fully embracing your own intuitive side, this episode will make you think twice about the unseen forces at play in your life. Want more?

    Starting a Family and Facing a Visa Battle. Staying Hopeful While Accepting Reality

    Sarah has spent nearly a decade building a home in Australia—now she’s expecting her first baby, all while she and her partner Lewis face the potential of deportation. But instead of spiralling, Sarah’s holding tight to what she can control: her mindset and her hope that everything will be alright. This episode is a reminder that uncertainty doesn’t have to break you. We talk visas, resilience, identity, and the quiet power of believing things will work out—even when you don’t have a guarantee they will. Sign Sarah & Lewis’s petition here:https://www.change.org/p/please-help-us-to-remain-in-australia-to-get-permanency-after-over-9-years-of-commitment?recruited_by_id=8c70a040-e825-11ef-9d8a-2193363918f5&utm_source=share_petition&utm_campaign=psf_combo_share_initial&utm_term=psf_combo_share_message&utm_medium=copylink Want more?

    The True Weight of Grief. Showing Up In Someone’s Worst Moment

    If you’ve ever wondered how to support someone through the worst time of their life, this one’s for you. In this raw episode, we sit down with Steph, who lost her brother Mitch to suicide last year. She doesn’t sugarcoat grief—how it changes you, the unexpected lessons it throws your way, and why she’s on a mission to open up the conversation around mental health. We get into what not to say, the things that actually help, and why showing up—especially when it’s messy—is non-negotiable. Check out Steph’s pages.

    Part 2: A Strict Church Upbringing Wasn't For Me. What Led Me to Leave the Church & How I Found My Freedom

    In this episode, we hear from Sarah, who grew up in a strict Pentecostal church where being “worldly” was something to be avoided for a committed believer. While there were positives to being part of such a close-knit community, Sarah eventually began to question the version of reality she was taught to believe. This journey of self-discovery led her to break away from the church, seeking freedom and her own definition of a fulfilled and balanced life. Although many values from her upbringing remain a part of her, Sarah’s perspective on faith has shifted as she has chosen a way of life that embraces love and acceptance, leaving behind the fear and shame that once defined her beliefs.

    Am I ready to stop taking things personally? Breaking down the different things we all take personally and why some things get to us more than others.

    Voted on as the next topic to dive into by our group chat, this is hands down an area we’re still working through and definitely don't have the answers to.In this episode, Ali & Ellie dive into the different types of things we take personally and the underlying reasons why these might trigger us so much. We work through a checklist of things that we can all take personally in our professional and personal lives, and the underlying insecurities we think drive this reaction for each of us.We wrap with a couple of techniques we’ve found helpful to guide self-reflection on this topic; like how to navigate our own blind spots and confiding in loved ones to share the load.  Don’t forget it’s not too late to join us in our 30-day Vulnerability Challenge! Commit to four tasks and check back in with your progress and to measure how you felt after (we promise it’ll be worth it). Head to our insta for a recap of the full challenge and the four tasks to take note of. We’ll be sharing our results.Keen to join our group chat?
