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 49: Serendipity, Sea Cucumbers, and a Life Fully Lived

    I had the most beautiful honour of sitting across from Graeme in our very first in-person, same-room episode — and I have to say, I wasn't entirely prepared for how much this conversation would move me. 🌿 Graeme is someone I came to know in one of the most tender and sacred seasons of his life — the final weeks of his beloved wife Barb's time on this earth. I was blessed to walk alongside Barb in those last weeks, and in doing so, I came to know the quiet, steady, deeply feeling man sitting beside her. I told Graeme then — when the time is right, I'd love to hear your story. And here we are. 🤍 What unfolded between us was one of those conversations I'll carry in my heart for a long time. Graeme described himself as a drifter, and yet as I listened, what I actually heard was a man who was always exactly where he needed to be — studying sponges in Greece, sitting in the dust of Arnhem Land uncovering Australia's oldest non-Indigenous structure, riding on the back of a 3.5 metre crocodile (yes, really 🐊), and travelling the world between treatments with the woman he loved for nearly 56 years. He calls it serendipity. I call it a life led by something deeper than a plan. Graeme speaks of Barb with a tenderness that brought tears to my eyes — the last Christmas in France, the ambulance trip to see Jesus Christ Superstar when she wasn't well enough to go but went anyway, the pact they made to keep travelling no matter what. He is now honouring her voice too, editing her unfinished manuscripts and carrying her stories forward with such love. 📖✨ Grief, adventure, belonging, loss, curiosity, and the quiet courage it takes to keep going — this episode holds all of it, gently and honestly. I'm so grateful Graeme said yes. 💙 Your story is never too small, too ordinary, or too late — it is always, always enough. 🌸 You can find me at 🌐 Website: https://www.juliemargerison.com  📩 Subscribe to my fortnightly newsletter to stay connected https://www.juliemargerison.com/newsletter 🎧 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 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 Graeme: Website: https://www.graemedobson.com/  #HeartFeltPodcast #GriefAndHealing #StoriesThatMatter #SerendipityAndSoul #LifeFullyLived

    🎙️ Episode 48: Don't Take It Personal 🌿

    For most of my life, taking things personally was something I was a queen of. 💭 I convinced myself that someone's mood, their silence, their reaction — was always somehow my fault. It was exhausting, and it kept me small. In this solo episode, I share some of the moments that taught me the difference between awareness and reaction. 🌸 From finding the courage to speak up about a heavy energy in the room, to sitting with the uncertainty of unanswered messages — even from a podcast guest — I walk through some very real, very human experiences on this journey of self-discovery. I'm still learning. I won't pretend otherwise. ✨ But what I do know is that when I return to my breath, to my journal, to the quiet of my meditation, something always softens. The looping thoughts settle. And I find my way back to my soul — and out of my head. I hope something in this episode moves something within you, or simply makes you feel a little less alone in your own mind chatter. 💛 Because your story matters, and right here, you are being heard. Until next time, take care of your heart. 🤍 You can find me at 🌐 Website: https://www.juliemargerison.com  📩 Subscribe to my fortnightly newsletter to stay connected https://www.juliemargerison.com/newsletter 🎧 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 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 #DontTakeItPersonal #SelfDiscoveryJourney #MindfulLiving #JulieMargerison

    🎙️ Episode 47: Identity Rebirth, Human Design & the Courage to Become with Reema

    In this episode I had the most beautiful conversation with Reema, an identity rebirth coach and human design specialist calling in all the way from India, where she was soaking up the warmth of a New Year festival with her family. 🌸 From the very first moment, I felt that gorgeous feeling of goosebumps — the kind that tells me I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. Reema's story is one of real courage and quiet revolution. She was raised to be a doctor — an obstetrician-gynaecologist, no less — and she was good at it. But somewhere along the way, she realised that being good at something and being lit up by something are two very different things. 🕯️ So she chose herself. She chose presence over prestige, motherhood over medicine, and eventually found her way to coaching through human design, nervous system work, and the kind of deep identity exploration that doesn't just teach people something new — it helps them become someone new. What moved me most in this conversation was Reema's honesty about never truly feeling seen. 💙 As someone with an open identity centre in human design, she described living as a chameleon — shifting, adapting, multifaceted — and the ache of wondering whether anyone would ever take the time to know the real her. I sat with that. I really sat with it. We also ventured into something I found genuinely fascinating — the shift the planet is moving through right now, from the Cross of Planning into the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix in 2027. A new 400-year cycle. A turning away from systems and tribes, and toward individuality, consciousness, and asking the question: 'Who am I, really?' 🌀 I'm so grateful Reema trusted me — and this space — with her story. 🙏 May this conversation gently remind me, and anyone who needs it today, that being chosen to exist in this life at all is already extraordinary.

    🎙️ Episode 46: 'This Shall Pass' 🌿

    In this solo episode, I get really honest about what's been showing up for me lately. 💛 No guest, no script — just me, sitting with what is, and sharing it from the heart. 🤍 I've been caught in the loop of comparing myself to others 😔 — that quiet, heavy feeling of wondering why I'm not further along, why my life doesn't look like everyone else's. It came up strongly at a lunch recently, surrounded by people, and yet feeling so deeply unseen by myself. ✨ I open up about the friendships that feel a little one-sided right now 💔, the dear friend I'm missing and dreaming about, and the gentle but powerful reminder I received to stop searching for what I need in the external world — and start giving it to myself. 🌸 I also get really real about sugar 🍫 — how it shows up as comfort when I'm feeling low, and the quiet victory of sitting with the craving and saying to myself, 'this shall pass.' And it did. 🙏 This episode is tender and unfinished, and I think that's exactly why it matters. 💫 Not every chapter has an answer yet — and that's okay. I'm learning to trust the journey, nurture myself, and honour where I am right now. 🌱 I'm so grateful you're here holding space for me, just as I hold it for you. 🤍 Your story matters. 🌟   You can find me at 🌐 Website: https://www.juliemargerison.com  📩 Subscribe to my fortnightly newsletter to stay connected https://www.juliemargerison.com/newsletter 🎧 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 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 #SelfDiscovery #NurturingSelf #ThisShallPass

    🎙️ Episode 45: 'In the Cocoon' 🦋

    Sometimes the best conversations are the ones you didn't plan. ✨ In this episode, I'm joined by my wonderful husband, Russell, for a beautifully spontaneous catch-up — and I have to say, it moved me to tears. We talk about the art of receiving 🌸, and how learning to open up to it has been one of the most quietly powerful shifts in both our lives. Russell shares his experience with a six-week men's mindfulness course 🧘, and the simple but profound insight about expectations that has genuinely changed the way he moves through his days. We also revisit the hilarious story of our very first date 😄 — where I took him on a surprise picnic 🧺, and he absolutely struggled to just sit back and let himself be cared for. 💛 What I love most about this conversation is watching Russell grow. 🌱 From the man who once thought kindness might be a trick question, to someone who can now look at a red light and find the gift in it 🚦— that kind of transformation is heart felt in every sense of the word. 💫 We're in our cocoon here in Gympie, Russell and I — growing quietly, getting ready to spread our wings. 🐛🦋 Thank you for holding space for us, just as we hold it for you. 🤍 Your story matters. 🌟 You can find me at 🌐 Website: https://www.juliemargerison.com  📩 Subscribe to my fortnightly newsletter to stay connected https://www.juliemargerison.com/newsletter 🎧 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 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 #TheArtOfReceiving #MensMindfulness #GrowingTogether

    🎙️ Episode 44: From Bamboo Teepee to Pyramid — My Meditation Evolution 🔺

    What if the thing you've been searching for finds you at exactly the right moment? In this solo episode, I revisit a chapter from my revised edition of My Way to Happiness — It Gets Better and Better, written back in 2007 — a time when I was learning to meditate under a bamboo teepee in my backyard. It looked ridiculous. It felt sacred. And it changed everything.🤩 Fast forward to 2026, and I'm sharing a beautiful update — one that involves sacred geometry, a crystal pyramid, a rainbow moonstone, and the kind of alignment that can only be described as the universe doing its thing.🌈 I also share some exciting news about what's happening behind the scenes — including the pyramid meditations becoming available to you.🤗 Come along for this honest, heartfelt reflection on what it means to keep showing up for your own journey, even when the twine breaks.❤️ If you are interested about finding more about purchasing a pyramid contact through website.

    🎙️ Episode 43: From exhaustion to embodiment — Erin's story of reclaiming herself from the inside out.

    In this episode of Heart Felt, I sit down with Erin, a cattle grazier and carer from south-east Queensland, whose journey back to herself is one of the most quietly courageous I've ever witnessed. When Erin first reached out for support, she was running on empty — depleted, disconnected, and carrying far more than any one person should. What she found wasn't just relief; it was the beginning of a profound transformation that's still unfolding. We talk about what it means to find joy in unexpected places — like the flow of cattle through a yard, or dancing alone in the kitchen. We sit with the weight of years hijacked by others, and the hard-won freedom that comes from finally setting boundaries with someone you love but can no longer afford to lose yourself to. Erin shares her deep wisdom about the land she stewards, her belief that farmers are far more switched-on than the world gives them credit for, and her unwavering conviction that the universe genuinely wants us to be happy. This one moved me to tears more than once. I hope it moves something in you, too. 'Your story is enough. Your voice matters. And here, you are being heard.'   🎧 Available now on all platforms. 🌐 Website: https://www.juliemargerison.com  🔗 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 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 #WomensWisdom #HealingJourney #RegenerativeLife #YouAreEnough

    🎙️ Episode 42: Solo - 'Staying in My Fence'

    Life has been throwing a lot at me lately — and in this solo episode, I get real about what it feels like when the heaviness of the outside world starts to creep in. From navigating the noise of rising costs and a fear-filled news cycle, to a candid conversation about hot cross buns with Russell that turned into something much deeper — this episode is a gentle reminder that the way we make even the smallest decisions says a lot about where we're placing our trust. I also open up about the Julie Margerison Community, what hasn't worked, what I'm learning, and why I'm choosing to see the roadblocks as redirections rather than failures. If you've ever found yourself caught in the spiral of lack, or wondered whether it's okay to choose what feels right for you — this one's for you.
