    S2 EP18: Travel as a spiritual practice with Daniel Stables

    In this episode of Many Paths, One Mountain, Giada speaks with travel and cultural writer Daniel Stables about the deeper meaning of travel, spirituality and human connection. Daniel shares how his work exploring cultures, folklore and spirituality has shaped his understanding of the world, and why travel can be much more than simply visiting new places. They explore the difference between being a tourist and truly travelling with intention, the healing power of stepping outside our routines, and how encountering different cultures can challenge our assumptions and broaden our perspective. They also discuss Daniel’s experiences in Indonesia, his reflections on death and how different cultures approach it, the universal similarities he has discovered beneath the diversity of human life, and why allowing the unexpected to happen can sometimes lead to the most meaningful experiences. A conversation about travel, spirituality, uncertainty, cultural connection and the journey of discovering that, beneath all our differences, we may have far more in common than we realise.

    S2 EP16: The power of breath with Sherien Ahmed

    In this episode of Many Paths, One Mountain, Giada is joined by Sherien Ahmed from Let Go Breathwork to explore the power of the breath and its connection to the body, mind and nervous system. They discuss how breathwork can help us regulate anxiety, return to a state of calm and become more aware of what is happening within the body. Sherien also shares practical breathing techniques, the importance of listening to your own body, and why breathwork needs to adapt to modern life without losing the essence of its traditional teachings.

    S2 EP15: The sacred in the ordinary

    What if the ordinary moments of your day could become sacred? In this episode, Giada explores the power of everyday rituals and how simple acts, performed with intention and awareness, can transform the way we experience our lives. From your first breath in the morning to making tea, crossing the threshold of your home, eating a meal, and preparing for sleep, these small moments can become pauses that reconnect us to ourselves, to nature, and to something larger. You don't need elaborate ceremonies or special objects. You simply need to be present.

    S2 EP14: Japanese art as healing with Kanae

    In this episode of Many Paths, One Mountain, Giada is joined by Japanese artist Kanae, who shares how calligraphy, origami and creative expression can become powerful pathways to healing. Together, they explore the Japanese concept of wa - harmony, and how calligraphy can help us let go of perfection, express ourselves and become fully present in the moment. They discuss the healing power of creativity, why everyone is an artist in their own way, and how making space for mess and experimentation can help us release emotions that have been kept inside. Kanae also opens up about her personal experience of using art to understand and express her OCD, and how creativity helped her move away from shame and towards acceptance. The conversation also explores Japanese traditions, our connection with nature and the seasons, and what modern life can teach us about slowing down and reconnecting with what truly matters.

    S2 EP13: Finding your own path

    In this episode of Many Paths, One Mountain, Giada steps back from the individual practices explored throughout Season 2 to ask a bigger question: what connects all these different paths to healing? Drawing on her own journey through shamanism, yoga, numerology, forest therapy, meditation, creativity and other spiritual practices, Giada explores the common threads beneath them all: presence, connection, energy, transformation and a relationship with something beyond the individual self. But with so many traditions, teachers and practices to choose from, how do you know which path is right for you? Giada shares why you don’t have to choose just one path, while also emphasising the importance of going deep rather than simply collecting practices. Most importantly, she explores the idea that authentic teachers should ultimately point you back towards yourself, because the authority for your own life cannot be found entirely outside of you. A reflection on finding your own way, honouring the traditions that came before you, and learning to trust your own intuition as you walk between worlds.

    S2 EP12: Trust the practice and just allow with Stephen Whitehead

    In this episode of Many Paths, One Mountain, Giada is joined by Stephen Whitehead from Happy Trees Yoga to explore the many paths that can lead us towards healing, greater awareness and a deeper connection with ourselves. Stephen shares his journey with yoga and meditation, why consistency matters more than perfection, and how starting with just a few minutes a day can create meaningful change. They discuss the mind’s tendency to create anxiety about the future, the role of breath in calming the nervous system, and simple techniques such as box breathing. They also explore how meditation can influence every area of life, from relationships and work to creativity and music, and why the key is not forcing transformation, but learning to trust the process and allow it to unfold.
