Heart Felt with Julie Margerison

Julie Margerison

Heart Felt is more than a podcast - it's a space for real, human connection. My mission is simple: to give people a voice. Not the polished, performative voice that society often expects - but the voice that comes from the heart, from the soul.It's about holding space for others to share their perspective with judgment.

    🎙️ Episode 33: My Body's Truth: Why I Choose Glass Over Plastic - A Personal Journey

    In this heartfelt solo episode, I share my personal story about my relationship with plastic and how listening to my body has transformed the way I live.🎙️ From drinking only out of glass or stainless steel to choosing natural fibres over synthetic fabrics, I open up about the physical reactions my body has to plastic materials and why I've made conscious choices to reduce plastic in my life. ✨ I discuss my journey from using Tupperware containers to embracing glass storage, the challenges of finding natural fibre clothing and undergarments, and why I take my water purifier camping with a seatbelt on. 💦 This isn't about telling anyone how to live—it's simply my story about honouring what my body tells me and discovering I'm not alone in these feelings. 🤗 If you've ever felt your body react to certain materials or wondered about making more natural choices in your daily life, this episode might resonate with you. I'd love to hear if you share similar experiences. 💫 🎧 Available now on all platforms. 🔗 Stay in touch: Follow me across my social media platforms here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartfeltwithjuliemargerison Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/16kXnE4SGn/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieMargerison-q5l LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-margerison-1a4513374 Skool: https://www.skool.com/your-story-matters-movement-7600 Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2514174 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3IqNNE9VP8FrCZgDyhZsWK?si=5898476e481a4622 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/heart-felt-with-julie-margerison/id1824601386 #JulieMargerison #HeartfeltPodcast #PlasticFree #NaturalLiving #ConsciousLiving

    🎙️ Episode 31: Grounding Through the Spiral - Mags Returns with Raw Truth on Nervous System Healing & Coming Home to Self

    🎙️ Episode 31: Grounding Through the Spiral - Mags Returns with Raw Truth on Nervous System Healing & Coming Home to Self In this powerful return episode of Heart Felt with Julie Margerison, Mags is back — and this time, we're going even deeper. Since our first conversation in Episode 11, Mags has been on a profound journey of nervous system regulation, learning to sit with big feelings, and discovering grounding tools that work when you can't physically hug a tree or stand on the earth. This isn't a polished "I've got it all figured out" conversation. This is the messy, honest, beautiful truth of what it takes to regulate a system that's lived in survival mode — and why incremental steps matter more than quantum leaps. We explore: The challenge of stopping complaining (Mags gave herself 5 minutes... made it 2.5 — and what that revealed) Grounding tools for wheelchair users & anyone who can't access traditional methods Why sitting with big feelings can crash your system for 2 days (and why that's okay) The power of tree energy, vibrations, and learning to listen to nature's messages Julie's journey reopening the door to "My Way to Happiness" 15 years later Why there's no finish line — just spirals, incremental steps, and coming round the mountain again The gift of forgiveness, self-compassion, and being kind to yourself in the awareness This is real. This is raw. This is remembering that healing isn't linear — it's a spiral. And wherever you are on your spiral right now? That's exactly where you're meant to be. 🎧 Available now on all platforms. 🔗 Stay in touch: Follow me across my social media platforms here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartfeltwithjuliemargerison Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/16kXnE4SGn/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieMargerison-q5l LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-margerison-1a4513374 Skool: https://www.skool.com/your-story-matters-movement-7600 Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2514174 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3IqNNE9VP8FrCZgDyhZsWK?si=5898476e481a4622 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/heart-felt-with-julie-margerison/id1824601386 ✨ Connect with Mags: Instagram link: https://www.instagram.com/corebelonging/ Facebook link: https://www.facebook.com/mags.alden.5 LinkedIn link: https://www.linkedin.com/in/livingawakeonpurpose/ Because your story matters.

    🎙️ Episode 30: Honouring the Layers - Gratitude, Growth & the Gentle Unfolding into 2026

    🎙️ Episode 30: Honouring the Layers - Gratitude, Growth & the Gentle Unfolding into 2026 Looking back on last year, I find myself reflecting on a journey of deep journaling, gratitude, triggers, healing, and awareness. It was a year where I didn’t just hear the words—triggers, responses, vulnerability—but truly felt them in my body. In this episode, I share a heart-led conversation about growth that unfolds in layers, how our bodies hold wisdom, how writing brings clarity, and how old beliefs quietly dissolve when we least expect it. I revisit and rewrite parts of my book My Way to Happiness – It Gets Better and Better, navigate misunderstandings, sit with discomfort, and recognise that my story truly matters. This episode isn’t about right or wrong. It’s about listening inward, honouring feelings, and allowing ourselves to soften, expand, and play again. As I step into 2026, I’m excited for what’s unfolding with Deep & Personal with Julie Margerison and the conversations yet to come. Your support means the world—let's keep the conversation going! 🎧 💥Remember to like, share, and subscribe! 🔗 Stay in touch: Follow me across my social media platforms here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartfeltwithjuliemargerison Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/16kXnE4SGn/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieMargerison-q5l YouTube Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQaPi_iUcDN_z7uNSi5XsiR9WlzkF28-w LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-margerison-1a4513374    Skool: https://www.skool.com/your-story-matters-movement-7600  Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2514174 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3IqNNE9VP8FrCZgDyhZsWK?si=5898476e481a4622 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/heart-felt-with-julie-margerison/id1824601386  #MyWayToHappiness #DeepAndPersonal #HeartLedLiving #HealingInLayers #GratitudeAndGrowth #HeartFeltPodcast #JulieMargerison #YourStoryMatters

    🎙️ Episode 29 – Closing the Year With Clarity: Sobriety, Self-Discovery & Embracing My Uniqueness

    🎙️ Episode 29 – Solo “Closing the Year With Clarity: Sobriety, Self-Discovery & Embracing My Uniqueness” In this final episode of 2025, I’m reflecting on six transformative months of healing, growth, and self-discovery. This solo conversation comes straight from the heart — honest, tender, and raw — as I close the year with gratitude and clarity. I share my journey of becoming sugar-free, 3 years sober, and embracing a low-carb lifestyle — not from restriction, but from self-love and a desire to feel safe in my body. I talk openly about lifelong anxiety, emotional triggers, shadow work, and learning to separate my energy from that of others as an empath. ✨ In this episode, I explore: Letting go of sugar as a coping mechanism What three years of sobriety has opened for me My inner critics (including “Eric”) and learning to hear the soul beneath the noise Journaling as a daily non-negotiable ritual Grounding with tree energy, crystals, and frequency shifts Releasing old stories and embracing my uniqueness Reflections on all 29 episodes — the guests, the healing moments, and the ripple effect I also look ahead to 2026 — the Heart Felt Holiday Highlights, the new season beginning in January, Your Story Matters events, the SKOOL community, and my commitment to writing Rewrite My Way to Happiness. This episode is a gentle reminder that healing is messy, brave, and sacred — and that sharing our stories helps others find their own path. 🎧 Listen now on Buzzsprout, Spotify, YouTube, or Apple Podcasts! 🔗 Stay in touch: Follow me across my social media platforms here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/heartfeltwithjuliemargerison Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/16kXnE4SGn/?mibextid=wwXIfr YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@JulieMargerison-q5l LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/julie-margerison-1a4513374 Skool: https://www.skool.com/your-story-matters-movement-7600 Buzzsprout: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2514174 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3IqNNE9VP8FrCZgDyhZsWK?si=5898476e481a4622 Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/heart-felt-with-julie-margerison/id1824601386 #HeartFeltPodcast #JulieMargerison #yourstorymatters #SobrietyJourney #HealingJourney #ShadowWork #SelfDiscoveryJourney #MindsetMatters #WellnessPodcast
