    Ep 65 - Why Your Journalling Isn't Working

    Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things—journaling, reflecting, reading the books, attending therapy—yet nothing is really changing? In this episode of Blossoming Beyond, I talk about a truth that often goes unspoken in personal growth and therapy spaces: insight alone doesn’t create change if your nervous system doesn’t have the capacity to hold it. This conversation is for the women who are thoughtful, self-aware, and committed to their inner work—but still feel stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated that nothing seems to “stick.” The issue isn’t that you’re doing it wrong. It’s that the order matters. In this episode, we explore:Why journaling, reflection, and therapy insights can bounce off a dysregulated nervous systemWhat actually happens in your brain when you’re in chronic overwhelm or survival modeWhy insight without regulation can feel like more weight, not reliefThe difference between doing the work and having the capacity to integrate iWhy women’s nervous systems are wired for co-regulation, not isolationHow community, circle, and being witnessed create the safety needed for real change I share why regulation must come before reflection—and how, once your system feels safe and supported, the very tools that weren’t working can suddenly land in a completely different way. A gentle reminder from this episode You are not failing at self-work. You are not lazy or resistant. Your nervous system is simply full—and asking for safety first. 🌿 Season of Her™ Doors are currently open. Season of Her™ begins March 10th.

    Ep 64 - Feeling Off? Your Nervous System in Transition

    Have you been feeling a little “off” lately — not quite yourself, more tired than usual, easily overwhelmed, or strangely flat? In this episode of Blossoming Beyond, we explore why that sense of disorientation is often not a problem to fix, but a sign of transition — especially for women navigating perimenopause, menopause, identity shifts, and the many quiet changes of midlife. This is a compassionate conversation about nervous system awareness, hormonal transitions, and why feeling different doesn’t mean you’re broken — it means your body is recalibrating. In this episode, we explore: Why feeling “off” is a common experience during life and hormonal transitionsHow the nervous system responds to change — even positive changeWhy modern life leaves women chronically under-resourcedThe cost of pushing through instead of listening inwardThe loneliness that often accompanies transition — and why it’s not your faultWhy support, co-regulation, and community matter more than everHow women’s circles create safety, regulation, and a sense of belongingThis episode is an invitation to soften the story that something is wrong — and instead honour the season you’re in.

    If January feels quieter than you expected… If you’re still finding your feet while everyone else seems to be charging ahead… This episode is for you. In our first episode of Season 3, we gently question the cultural pressure to hit the ground running and explore a kinder, more nervous-system–aware way to meet the new year. This is not about reinvention. It’s about re-entry.

    Ep 59 - Social Self-Care — Connection that Nourishes, Not Drains

    In this week’s episode of Blossoming Beyond, we’re exploring a truth that feels especially important as we move into the busiest time of the year: Not all connection fills us. Sometimes, the very relationships and routines meant to bring us joy can instead leave us overstimulated, drained, and disconnected from ourselves. But when connection is intentional, safe, and soulful — it becomes a form of self-care. This conversation is your gentle reminder that you don’t always have to retreat to refill. Sometimes, being with the right people — at the right pace — is the most restorative thing you can do. Grab your cuppa and join me for a grounded chat about “social self-care” — connection that heals rather than depletes. 🌿 In this episode, we’ll explore: Why November often feels like emotional and energetic overloadThe difference between connection that nourishes and connection that drainsHow to approach social self-care as part of your wellness practiceThe kinds of community spaces that regulate your nervous system (not overwhelm it)How to honour your boundaries while staying connected to what matters most ✨ Find Your Flow — A Day of Nervous System Nourishment If your body’s craving calm as the year winds down, join me and four incredible local women for Find Your Flow — a restorative day retreat designed to help you slow down and reconnect. 🌸 Sunday, 16 November at Yarroweyah Memorial Hall 🌿 Heart-centred meditation, gentle yoga, essential oils, sound healing & more 💛 This is connection that soothes, not overstimulates 🎟️ Tickets available via Humanitix Here 💌 Season of Her™ Survey If you’ve been curious about Season of Her™ but didn’t join Round One, I’d love your insight.

    Ep 58 - When Women Gather: The Healing Power of Circle with Adriana Basile

    What really happens when women gather in circle? Why is this ancient practice re-emerging as one of the most powerful forms of healing and connection in the modern world? In this deeply nourishing episode of Blossoming Beyond, I’m joined by Adriana Basile — Women’s Circle Facilitator, Mentor, and Relationship Coach — for a heart-opening conversation about sisterhood, ritual, and the sacred art of gathering. Adriana shares her personal story of transformation after a major life transition and how sitting in circle became a pathway back to herself.

In this episode, we dive into: How Adriana found her calling as a women’s circle facilitator and mentorWhy gathering in circle is medicine for modern disconnection and burnoutThe ancient lineage of storytelling and feminine wisdomHealing the sisterhood wound and dismantling comparison cultureWhat really happens inside a women’s circle (and why it’s not “woo-woo”)How circle work is evolving — from sacred spaces to corporate and community gatheringsThe ripple effect of women reconnecting to themselves and each other Adriana’s grounded wisdom and compassionate presence are an invitation to slow down, breathe, and remember that you are not alone. Whether you’ve been curious about attending a women’s circle or simply longing for deeper connection, this conversation will awaken something within you. “When women gather, magic happens.
