    #78 Love and Laughter; Saffron Issac and Thirty-Two Years of Friendship

    This week on Nonsense in the Chaos, I’m joined by my best friend, Saffron Issac… a woman who has walked alongside me through more lifetimes than one. We met as teenagers in a Tudor re-creation and have been in each other’s lives ever since, from free parties and muddy rave fields, to sharing a home at the turn of the millennium in Brighton, to slowly, fiercely carving out our own lives and callings. We’ve witnessed each other becoming, unravelling, rebuilding. We even found ourselves side by side in the strange, tender world of IVF… her journey leading to motherhood and a now twelve-year-old, mine opening out into a different, child-free path. Two lives, equally full. Equally valid. Deeply intertwined. These days, we keep our connection alive through podcast-length WhatsApp messages (you know the ones), and in many ways, this entire podcast has become an extension of our conversations… with Saffron very much at the heart of who I’m speaking to. This episode is exactly what you’d expect… chaos, laughter, nostalgia, and a whole lot of love. A celebration of friendship that has stretched, shifted, and held strong through it all. Come and sit with us and enjoy an hour of eavesdropping on two old friends who just can’t stop laughing.

    #77 Creating a Home and Tending to the Ancestral Fires

    This week I’m sitting in the strange and beautiful in-between of arrival. A new home, new rhythms, new ways of inhabiting both space and self. There’s something about learning how to live in a place that mirrors learning how to live in a new phase of life… and right now, both are shifting at once. As I move deeper into the perimenopausal threshold, I can feel the stirrings of what I’m calling the ‘Baby Crone’… a soft but powerful reordering of priorities, energy, and truth. And weaving through it all… La Beltane Festival is just on the horizon. I’m looking forward to immersing myself in the weekend, celebrating the season and this gorgeous land, AND then being able to relax and enjoy the house and our new lives together after it’s all come together. Can’t wait for that bit!

    #76 A Spiritual Journey; Elaine Le Feuvre and Ways of Meeting the Menopause

    This week I take a deep dive into the wild adventure that is menopause with my guest Elaine Le Feuvre. Elaine is a passionate advocate for the Red School, which teaches women to work with their menstrual cycles, and for the Wisewoman’s Journey through menopause, seeing it as a deeply spiritual rite of passage. Known across the Channel Islands for her work as an aromatherapist, Elaine has led a rich and varied life. She has lived in South Africa and the UK, returning to Guernsey in her 30s where she worked in the prison service before coming back to her roots as a holistic therapist. Her practice now weaves together aromatherapy, reiki, and her work as a qualified cacao facilitator. Her work is inseparable from her own healing journey. After experiencing severe menstrual symptoms since her teenage years, she had a defining moment when she discovered she was living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), a cyclical, hormone-based mood disorder. From that point, she committed to understanding her body more deeply, exploring both holistic and hormonal approaches, and grounding herself in spiritual practice to navigate the physical and emotional intensity of PMDD. Elaine is deeply committed to encouraging women to share their hormonal journeys and reclaim their stories. In this episode, we also explore Wise Power: Discover the Liberating Power of Menopause to Awaken Authority, Purpose and Belonging by Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer and Alexandra Pope.

    #74 Adventures in Geomancy; The Universe Set Me A Quest-I-On

    There are moments when the path beneath your feet stops being metaphor and becomes instruction. This week’s episode traces the unseen threads that have been quietly, persistently guiding me... from pilgrimage roads to the shores of Sark, and deeper still into the valley we now call home. What once felt like a series of choices is revealing itself as something far more intentional — a conversation with the land itself. Geomancy, when lived rather than studied, asks something of you. It listens, it nudges, and sometimes... it sets a quest. In this episode, I explore the strange and sacred pull into place, and the growing sense that I’m being asked to step into service — to listen more closely, to read the energy of the land, and to discover what work wants to be done here. This is a story of arrival, alignment, and the first whisper of a question that might just change everything.

    #73 Tell it to the Bees; Chris Parks and the Wonders of the World

    In this week’s episode I’m chatting with the incredible creatrix that is Chris Park. Chris lives on an organic farm in the Vale of the White Horse, Oxfordshire. His work is wide and varied, from arts and craft, ancient technologies, experimental archaeology and educational projects, to eco-building, professional storytelling, folk music and raising the awareness of the heritage of beekeeping. He is a founder member of the Beekeeping History Trust, a skep beekeeper, skep-maker and a practicing Druid.  Often seen extolling the virtues of mead, metheglin and other traditional honey drinks, Chris tries to live an ecological lifestyle, growing some food, fetching wood and spring water, living close to the earth.  Around the fire, if the stars are aligned, he can be a purveyor of ageless words, a seeker of the world's most ancient truths, lies and everything in between. You might call him a mellifluous fabulist, an erudite druid or a cunning linguist… but put simply he's just a decent fella, and a good storyteller, with tales for young and old, the innocent and the experienced, garnished with delicious music and song.

    #72 The Spring Equinox; Bringing Forth New Beginnings

    It might seem counterintuitive, but this moment in time is such an incredible opportunity to be the best version of yourself and to do heroic things. Be the person who hid the family in your attic. Be the person who smuggled people through the checkpoint in the car. Be the person who kept squirrelling food away and who shared your last bit of bread. Be that person. Be the person that people are going to talk about in 50 years’ time... about what a courageous, awesome human you were because of all the bold and selfless things you did. Don’t let them control the narrative. Don’t let them create your world for you. You create your own world, and you create them into living in a world where they are facing justice and getting their comeuppance. Know, with every fibre of your being, that this is going to happen. This is a turning point in history. It will be remembered in 50 years’ time... in a hundred years’ time. We’ll be talking about this moment in time. What were you doing? What was your contribution? What did you challenge? What did you stand up for? What did you help to create? What were you doing during this time?

    #71 Herd Time; Claire Cole and the Power of Horse

    This week I’m in conversation with Claire Cole, who runs The Centre in Guernsey, where she and her horses hold deeply intuitive shamanic healing sessions. In her work the horses are not simply present... they are active participants in the process, sensing energy, responding to what is unspoken, and helping guide people gently back towards themselves. There is something profoundly moving about watching these huge, sensitive creatures mirror what is happening inside us. It feels like an apt way to open this new season... especially in the year of the fire horse. Claire herself carries that same quiet strength. She is a gentle, gorgeous soul with a real powerhouse energy behind her work, and our conversation wandered through the magic of horses, the nature of healing, and the unexpected ways transformation can appear when we slow down enough to listen. It was a joy to sit down with her, and a beautiful way to begin the next chapter of the podcast.
