Episode 56 - Healing From Reflux

In this episode we interview our client, a woman who had lived with reflux for nearly 30 years—managing symptoms, stacking medications, and assuming it was just her “normal.” You’ll hear how asking why changed everything. We dig into what really drives reflux, why acid suppression often stops working, and how rebuilding digestion, restoring microbial balance, and simplifying food brought her genuine relief—not just from reflux, but from joint pain, weight struggles, and constant discomfort. It’s a story about turning off autopilot, questioning quick fixes, and discovering what’s possible when you stop managing symptoms and start exploring root causes.

Episode 55 - Finding Hope After Despair

In this episode, we sit down with Graeme Cowan — a founding director of the “R U OK?” movement. Graeme opens up about his journey from corporate success to a five-year battle with severe depression, and how that experience reshaped his purpose in life. He shares powerful insights into the importance of genuine check-ins, practical self-care, and building workplaces where people feel seen and supported. The conversation traces his transformation — from authoring the bestselling Back From the Brink to speaking globally about resilience, connection, and wellbeing. Listeners will walk away with actionable tools to reframe their mindset, strengthen relationships, and rekindle hope through purpose and connection.

Episode 54 - Healing at the Root

In this episode, we explore what it truly means to heal from the inside out — not by fixing or suppressing symptoms, but by understanding the deeper stories beneath them. Using the Internal Family Systems (IFS) model, we uncover how our recurring patterns like perfectionism, anxiety, or self-sabotage are protective parts of us, each with a positive intention. Through compassion, curiosity, and connection to our core Self, we can transform these parts and lead our inner system with calm and clarity. This is healing at the root — coming home to who we truly are.

Episode 53 - How Small Hurts Break Big Bonds - and How to Heal Family

This episode explores the quiet ways family bonds can fray—not through explosive fights, but through small, repeated hurts that slowly erode trust and closeness. Through Sarah’s story, we witness how years of subtle criticism and dismissive remarks can leave lasting wounds, creating distance even when love remains. Science experts explain how chronic invalidation reshapes the brain, teaching us to suppress feelings and associate family with stress instead of safety. Yet this episode offers hope and gentle guidance, sharing tools for naming painful patterns, setting compassionate boundaries, and seeking peace—whether that leads to repair or release. It’s a compassionate reminder that love without emotional safety isn’t connection, and that choosing yourself is sometimes the first step toward true healing.

Episode 52 - The Power of Context

Understanding the full picture, or "context," is vital for healthy relationships and a peaceful mind. When we ignore the background details of a situation, we often fall into distorted ways of thinking, like jumping to conclusions, overgeneralising from single events, or only seeing the negative. To combat this, we need to actively seek context by asking questions like "What else could be true?" and trying to see things from other perspectives. This not only helps us understand others better but also allows for self-compassion by revealing the deeper reasons behind our own behaviours.

Episode 51 - Identity & the Quantum Connection

In this episode, we explore the work of Dr. Bruce Lipton, a cell biologist who challenges conventional scientific understanding, particularly in the area of epigenetics. The research of Lipton and others, demonstrates that our thoughts, beliefs, and environment have a profound impact on our biology and gene expression, rather than genes solely determining our destiny. We take a look at the existence of bioelectromagnetic energy, which is an interdisciplinary field that examines the interaction between electromagnetic fields and biological entities, including cells, tissues, and organisms and how various animal species use it to navigate and communicate. We take a look at our own cells, in a fascinating experiment involving astronaut Brian O'Leary . It hints at a form of long-distance biological communication, that suggests our identity might be more like a broadcast than a fixed physical entity. We investigate the implications of these ideas for healing, personal growth, and the future of medicine and encourage you to open your minds to new perspectives on consciousness and human potential.

Episode 50 - Why We Stay Stuck: The Hidden Patterns of Suffering

This episode explores why people stay stuck in harmful patterns, even when they know these behaviours hurt them. It shows how early experiences, like conditional love or unmet emotional needs, shape the stories we tell ourselves that can lead to shame, self-doubt, and unhealthy habits as adults. Using the example of a woman longing for a toxic relationship, it explains how these patterns often come from a deep need for love and validation. Healing involves changing these old stories, addressing emotional wounds, and learning self-compassion. By focusing on self-care instead of seeking approval from others, we can break free from these cycles and find true peace and self-worth.

Episode 49 - The Trap of Getting Stuck in Certainty Over Curiosity

This episode highlights the human tendency to prioritise certainty over curiosity, a behaviour rooted in the brain's primal need for safety. In the workplace example provided, a decision to offer a young employee minimal hours in her former field, alongside a new role, sparked unfounded assumptions among her future team. Without verifying the facts, they interpreted the decision as a threat to their positions, fuelling conflict and misunderstanding. There is an importance to emphasise adopting curiosity instead of jumping to conclusions. By pausing, asking questions, and seeking to understand others' perspectives, we can avoid miscommunication, emotional reactions, and unnecessary drama. This approach fosters clarity, reduces conflict, and promotes healthier interpersonal interactions.
