  1. Sacred Rage as a Catalyst with Erika Tourell (#065)

    Sacred Rage as a Catalyst with Erika Tourell (#065)

    What if the rage you've spent your whole life trying to suppress is actually one of your greatest gifts? In this extraordinary conversation, somatic trauma therapist and tantra practitioner Erika Tourell takes us deep into the territory most of us have been taught to fear — our anger, our grief, and the raw, electric charge of our own life force. This isn't a conversation about becoming a calmer, more managed version of yourself. It's an invitation to reclaim the fire. Erika brings nearly 40 years of healing work to this conversation — from holistic bodywork at 19, through four years across India, Thailand, Bali and beyond, to her own reckoning with menopause, developmental trauma, and the shattering realisation that healing isn't just personal. It's political. She speaks with rare honesty about her own journey through depression, functional freeze, a Kundalini-like menopause, and how it led her to understand that the missing piece of her own healing — and perhaps ours — was the somatic piece: the body's wisdom, the nervous system's intelligence, and the power of community. The heart of this episode is sacred rage — what it is, why we've been so thoroughly taught to deny it, and what becomes possible when we stop. Erika unpacks the link between suppressed anger and chronic illness, between our rage and our creativity, between our deepest fury and our most sacred calling. She offers real practices for moving the charge through the body — breath, movement, voice — and makes the case that learning to channel this energy is not just healing work, it's world-changing work. This episode ends with a vision that will stay with you: that each of us, in healing our own nervous system and stepping into our gifts, is participating in what Joanna Macy calls "the great turning." The time is now. The time is yesterday. How to Get in Touch: Website: www.erikatourell.com/Instagram: @erikatourell_ecosomatics Ready to go deeper on your journey of personal or spiritual growth?

  2. I Found My Inner Authority by Burning It All Down (#064)

    I Found My Inner Authority by Burning It All Down (#064)

    What if the thing standing between you and real success — is the success you've already built? Amanda had the contracts, the clients, the credibility. A leadership development business that ticked every box she'd been handed. And she walked away from all of it. Not because it was falling apart — but because it was working perfectly, and she still felt nothing. What followed was three years of rebuilding from the inside out: investing in deep coaching, resetting her nervous system, and learning to trust herself again. The result wasn't just a different business. It was a completely different relationship with her own knowing — one that eventually led her to launch her highest-tier package at £47,000 and build something that felt genuinely aligned. Amanda also shares the story of a client who made a similar leap — twice. From corporate to entrepreneurship, and then from that first business into something truer still. Rocky at first, yes. But guided by an inner sense that they were finally on the right path. Together, these two stories reveal something powerful: inner authority isn't a destination. It's a practice of listening, adjusting, and daring to honour what feels true — even when no one else understands it yet. If you've ever looked around at your life, seen everything that's supposed to make you happy, and still felt something missing — this episode is for you.

  3. How Dare She Read Tarot with Hannah Joy Graves (#063)

    How Dare She Read Tarot with Hannah Joy Graves (#063)

    What if the most powerful tool for self-awareness wasn't a therapy couch or a meditation app — but a deck of 78 cards? In this episode, Amanda sits down with Hannah Joy Graves, known to her devoted following as Cult Mother Tarot, for a conversation that is equal parts hilarious, deeply moving, and genuinely transformative. Hannah didn't come to tarot through a mystical lineage or a spiritual calling — she came to it sober, shaken, and standing by a canal in Berlin in the dead of January, where her dog dug up a muddy tarot card from the dirt. That was the beginning of everything. Hannah dismantles the gatekeeping that surrounds tarot with characteristic wit and conviction. There's no right way to read the cards, she insists, because tarot has no single fixed point of origin — which means no one gets to be the final authority. What matters is the lens you bring, the life you've lived, and your willingness to sit with the images and let them move you. If they move you, she says — that's magic. Full stop. This reframe will be a revelation for anyone who's ever felt too inexperienced, too sceptical, or too messy to work with tarot. The conversation takes some breathtaking turns — through Hannah's journey to sobriety, the origin story of the "Cult Mother" name, the very real phenomenon of the witch wound, and why making good money doing spiritual work is not a betrayal of your values but a rejection of patriarchal capitalism. Amanda shares her own experience of fighting her way out of the spiritual closet — and Hannah meets her there with both fire and grace. And then, in the final stretch of the episode, Hannah pulls cards for Amanda live — and they land with the kind of eerie precision that makes you stop, catch your breath, and wonder what you've been avoiding.

    The Body Doesn't Lie - Fully Embodying Your Inner Archetype (#062)

    Join the Inner Authority Lab --> https://www.amandaparker.co/inner-authority-lab What if the chronic pain you can't shake, the injury that keeps returning, or the patterns that derail your life aren't random — but are actually the unlived parts of you, desperately trying to be heard? That's the radical and deeply compassionate lens that Liz Letchford brings to her work. A rehabilitation scientist with a PhD in kinesiology, Liz spent years in clinical practice before realising that the questions most researchers weren't asking — the emotional, spiritual, and archetypal ones — were precisely the ones her clients needed answered most. In this rich, wide-ranging conversation, Liz introduces us to the world of archetypal harmonics: her own method of working with the body to identify which archetypal energies within us are starved, which are in overdrive, and what it actually takes to bring the whole system back into balance. Drawing on Jungian psychology, somatic practice, dramaturgy, breath work, and even a six-month dominatrix training course in New York City, Liz has built something genuinely unlike anything else — a body-led approach to identity, healing, and the reclaiming of self. What makes this conversation particularly special is the honesty both Liz and Amanda bring to the harder truths: that we often cling to pain because it's the only way we've known love to arrive; that the parts of ourselves we've most repressed will eventually find a way out — through injury, illness, chaos, or crisis; and that real healing isn't about fixing something broken, but about becoming unafraid of what we once feared. Liz shares stories from her practice — including a bespoke week-long intervention for a woman in mental health crisis, and her own traumatic spiritual awakening — that make the work visceral and real. Whether you've tried everything and can't quite find your way through, or you're in the middle of a major identity transition and wondering how to embody who you're becoming, this episode offers a genuinely new map. One that starts not in the mind, but in the body — in the breath — and leads all the way back to love.

  5. Becoming a Psychic - My Journey of Remembering

    Becoming a Psychic - My Journey of Remembering

    What does it actually look like to develop your psychic abilities — from scratch, with no roadmap, and no guarantee you're doing it right? In this candid solo episode, Amanda Parker takes us on an intimate tour of her personal journey through psychic development, from her first Reiki training that cracked open her awareness, to immersive retreats in Sweden that finally made everything click. She's not sharing a polished success story — she's sharing the real, messy, beautiful truth of what it means to step into your gifts. Amanda takes us through the pivotal programs and teachers that shaped her path, including a life-changing seven-day online psychic training with her Reiki teacher Emma during COVID, courses at London's prestigious College of Psychic Studies, and an unforgettable retreat in snowy Sweden with Not Your Average Psychic (Saskia and Rochelle). At every turn, she faced the same inner obstacle: a deep-seated fear of getting it wrong. What she discovered is that the biggest barrier to psychic development isn't lack of ability — it's the performance pressure and self-doubt layered on top of gifts that were always there. One of the most powerful threads woven throughout this episode is the distinction between psychic channeling and mediumship, and why understanding how you personally receive information is far more important than trying to fit someone else's mould. Amanda reflects on how she now blends psychic channeling, Oracle cards, Reiki energy healing, and coaching into transformational Oracle readings — and how that work has become one of the most fulfilling practices of her life. This episode is a love letter to everyone who has ever sensed they had something more within them but couldn't quite access it. Amanda's message is clear and hopeful: you haven't lost your abilities. You've simply forgotten how to find them. And with the right support, practice, and permission to trust yourself, you can remember.

  6. Why Your Success Feels Empty

    Apr 2

    Why Your Success Feels Empty

    You can hit the revenue target, land the dream clients, and still wonder why it doesn’t feel better. I’m Amanda Parker, and I’m pulling the curtain back on the “success hangover” so many entrepreneurs and high achievers carry in silence: that unsettling emptiness that shows up right after you check all the boxes you thought would finally make you happy. I walk through why this happens and how often our definition of success is borrowed from culture, family expectations, and online business narratives. Then I share the pivot that changed everything for me: shifting from external markers to internal metrics like freedom, creativity, and genuine alignment. We talk about what it looks like to build a business that supports your life, not a life that props up your business, and how easy it is to accidentally create a self-made prison even when the numbers look “right.” We also dig into the fear loop that keeps founders stuck at the next threshold: fear of failing and fear of succeeding at the same time. The way forward isn’t always a new tactic or model. It’s inner work, self-trust, and learning to hear your own intuition above the noise. If you’ve been craving more fulfillment, meaning, and an aligned business that actually feels good to run, this conversation will give you a clear place to start.

  7. Stop Waiting for Clarity - Tools to See (and Build) Your Next Level

    Stop Waiting for Clarity - Tools to See (and Build) Your Next Level

    Waiting for clarity can feel responsible, but it often becomes a quiet way to stay stuck. When the dream feels big and the path feels foggy, the real skill is learning how to “see” your next level from where you are and take steps before you feel ready. I’m Amanda Parker, and I’m sharing the exact practices I use to bridge that gap in my life and business, especially when I’m overwhelmed, second-guessing myself, or tempted to freeze. We walk through five tools for personal growth and transformation that make your future feel tangible: new moon intentions (a monthly ritual for goals and reflection), vision boarding (to define what you actually want, not what you think you should want), future-focused journaling (including a powerful “what could go wrong and how would I handle it” prompt), and a letter from your future self that spells out the habits and sacrifices your dream will require. If you’re navigating uncertainty, anxiety about the future, or a major career or business shift, these practices help you turn vague hope into a clear inner map. We also go deep on visualization as mental rehearsal, including how I wrote and recorded a short script in my own voice so I can practice the same vivid future daily. To make it practical, I invite you to treat this work like an experiment: pick one tool and try it for 10 days, then notice what changes in your confidence, focus, and decisions.

  8. From Doomscrolling to Detox: Why Conviction Beats Willpower

    From Doomscrolling to Detox: Why Conviction Beats Willpower

    What if the reason you keep stalling on new habits isn’t a lack of willpower, but a lack of the right conditions? Amanda shares a candid, step-by-step look at how she completed an eight-day Ayurvedic detox after years of stopping at day three, and what changed to make follow-through non-negotiable. From the toll of doomscrolling and constant crisis headlines to the quiet power of clear limits and smart preparation, this conversation reframes discipline as design. We walk through a simple, repeatable roadmap: choose conviction over hope, set a visible finish line, make a real decision, lower friction with preparation, rehearse success through visualization, and lean on someone who can carry you on hard days. You’ll hear the messy middle too—headaches, cravings, and the moment she brought mung bean soup to a full-day workshop—along with the shift when energy, clarity, and confidence returned. Each element is practical and adaptable, whether you’re launching a project, starting a fitness streak, or finally sitting down to write. If you’re tired of white-knuckling your goals, this is a gentler, sturdier way forward. You’ll learn how time-bound experiments beat vague forever-promises, why designing your environment matters more than raw grit, and how accountability becomes borrowed belief when your own wavers. Hit play, pick one change for a short window, and let this framework carry you across the line. If this resonated, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs momentum, and leave a quick review to help others find the show. What will your eight-day challenge be?
