    Ep. 52: There Are No Rules

    In this episode, I invite you to break up with the “shoulds” and start living by your own inner authority. Explore what happens when you stop outsourcing your choices to societal expectations, research trends, or identity labels, and instead experiment with what actually works for your body and life. Building a relationship with your inner wisdom takes practice: listening to intuitive nudges, noticing the ego’s louder urges (and even giving it a name), and treating everything as information. This is a permission slip to play, to loosen rigid rules, and to create supportive structure with flexibility so you can feel more free, more nourished, and more you. In this episode I discuss: “Should” culture vs self-trust and self-knowingExperimenting with sleep, movement, food, and daily rhythm Structure & flow: a flexible container instead of rigid rules Tracking your cycle as guidance, without turning it into dogma Emotional eating as a stress response (and meeting the feeling instead) Naming the “ego voice” to create space and choice Small experiments = big liberation over time Becoming the author of your life, not a follower of external rules If you'd like to write a love letter to yourself to be opened at a later date then join this gorgeous and expansive ⁠Letter Writing Workshop ⁠which is now available to be accessed instantly where we do this practice together. If you would like to dive deeper into simplicity and decluttering check out my masterclass ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Wild Simplicity: The First Step⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, which is available now on my website and in my Instagram bio.

    Ep. 51: Love Letters, From You To You

    In this episode of the Wild Simplicity podcast, I share one of my favourite annual rituals - writing a letter to my future self. Each January, before I pack away the Christmas decorations, I write a letter to the woman I’ll be a year from now. It’s a practice that has grown from something simple and practical into a deeply loving, expansive and supportive ritual. Reading my letter this year reminded me just how powerful it is to become our own source of encouragement, reassurance and belief. In this episode, I talk about: Why writing to yourself can feel awkward and why it’s actually so healing How to create a meaningful letter ritual for your future self The magic of small acts of kindness towards yourself Reframing everyday tasks as gifts to your future self Using timers and tiny actions to create more ease in daily life How playfulness, self-compassion and intention can change how we experience our days This is an invitation to slow down, soften, and tend to yourself... not just for today, but for the woman you’re becoming.

    Ep. 50: Learning to Slow Down and Let Go

    In this episode, I explore: Reaching episode 50 and what that milestone represents for me Trusting life and responding differently when things don’t go to plan Letting go of pressure, urgency, and old narratives The power of slowing down in the dark, in-between days Breath, embodiment, and inviting more soul into the body Simplicity, presence, and doing less - gently and intentionally Remembering that there is always an opportunity to begin again If you would like to dive deeper into simplicity and decluttering check out my masterclass ⁠⁠⁠⁠Wild Simplicity: The First Step⁠⁠⁠⁠, which is available now on my website and in my Instagram bio.

    Ep. 49: The Gold in the Voice Notes with Julie Bevan

    In this episode of the Wild Simplicity podcast, I’m joined by my friend Julie (Julie Bevan Art) for a chat....unfiltered “voice-note style” , the kind that usually happens behind the scenes between two women who are both parenting, building businesses, and doing the inner work. We talk about the invisible rules we carry (“I can’t show up with wet hair”, “I have to sound professional”, “I need to be perceived a certain way”) and how much energy leaks out through overthinking, shame, and scanning for external validation. We explore the power of bringing unconscious patterns into consciousness , not by forcing change, but by seeing what’s running the show and gently reclaiming ourselves. Julie shares what she’s uncovering about women being sidelined in art history (and how it’s lighting a fire in her!), and we move into the topic of beauty - how creating sanctuary at home, using colour, and making small seasonal changes can be an act of nourishment and self-honouring. We also talk about speaking shame out loud, talking to yourself as a taboo-but-powerful practice, and the liberation that comes from doing the “weird” things you’ve been conditioned to hide. There’s rage, laughter, creativity, nervous system truths, and a lot of permission in here. The permission to stop diluting yourself and start living from your potency. The pressure to be “professional” and the exhaustion of self-monitoring Becoming more yourself online (and in real life) without performing “Potent” as potential and what happens when we dilute ourselves Beauty & sanctuary: colour, art, and home as a nervous system support Women erased from art history and why reclaiming “her story” matters Energy leaks: resentment, validation-seeking, and over-analysis Speaking shame out loud (and why it dissolves so much) Talking to yourself as reclamation (and why it’s wrongly taboo) Rage as life-force: safe release practices (the “swamp” / emotional release) You can follow Julie on Instagram @julie.bevan.art and check out all of her beautiful artwork on her website https://www.juliebevanart.com/ If you would like to dive deeper into simplicity and decluttering check out my masterclass ⁠⁠⁠Wild Simplicity: The First Step⁠⁠⁠, which is available now on my website and in my Instagram bio.

    Ep. 48: Making the Unconscious Conscious

    In this episode, I talk about one of my favourite quotes of all time...Carl Jung’s“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”It’s the quote that has guided me and inspired me over the last few years. I talk about how awakening, whether sudden or gradual, cracks us open. How the patterns we’ve lived inside since childhood finally surface. How unsettling, exhilarating, and wildly liberating it is to see the “water we’ve been swimming in.” I talk about how awakening can make “normal life” feel incompatible, how our sensitivity sharpens, how we sense people’s energy beneath their words, and how belonging shifts. And then… that next Jung quote:“The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are.”I love this one too. This is really it, the path and the true liberation. I share about awakening, questioning the narrative, reclaiming the true self, dropping the masks, dissolving the inner prisons, and stepping into authenticity, a vibration even higher than love. And why this matters for the rising consciousness on the planet right now. I also discuss my current offerings:✨ The Gentle Guide to Decluttering (free)✨ Wild Simplicity: The First Step (masterclass)✨ Declutter a Drawer — 1:1 Session (festive price) This episode is a call to all of you out there who are peeling back the layers, dropping the masks. Here's to letting go, and to the magic that arrives when we stop calling our unconscious patterns “fate".

    Ep. 47: Stillness in the Chaos: A Gentle December Reset

    In this episode, I invite you to check-in with yourself. This one is a reminder for me, for you, for all of us navigating the mental load, expectations, and heightened energy of this time of year. I talk about the importance of pausing, reclaiming our attention from our phones, recognising resentment and overwhelm as signals, and finding micro-moments of presence throughout the day. I share how I’m practising time away from my phone, simple somatic practices, and the power of sitting down, literally, as an invitation to breathe. This is a reminder to return to ourselves before the world pulls us outward. In this episode I explore: How December hype, pressure and mental load impact the body My own phone habits, sharing accountability, and why I’m putting my phone away in the hallway The resentment, overwhelm and cultural expectations around women carrying the invisible load Why we must advocate for our peace Simple practices for slowing down: Hand on heart Havening A 10-30 second breath Sitting on a park bench or a different chair as a cue to pause How to access stillness even in crowded, noisy environments Using shakers to release energy if you’re highly sensitive or have been around lots of people Reclaiming your December by simplifying, delegating and letting go of ideals Remembering the beauty of the season without abandoning ourselves Returning to your inner untouched pool of stillness and the wild simplicity within If this episode resonated with you, I'd be so grateful if you subscribe and leave a rating/review.

    Ep. 46: Women’s Voices, Liberation, and the Power Within

    In this episode, I share an early-morning message that came through at 6am, a moment of clarity that asked me to look at the question: What do I truly want? I read the message word-for-word as it was typed on waking, honouring my process and the way guidance arrives for me. At the heart of it is my deepening call to help free women’s voices, support them in rising, and reclaim the wild simplicity that lives within all of us. I explore: How intuitive downloads arrive in the quiet hours and why I’m learning to trust the uniqueness of my process. The core truth that my work in the world is about wild simplicity, liberation, and women’s leadership. My desire to stand beside women as they reclaim their courage, energy, boundaries and inner knowing. Why we must stop waiting for someone to save us and realise we are the ones who open the door to our next level. A metaphor from airport travel (yes, Ryanair 😂) that mirrors the healing journey and the moment we choose to step forward. The power of women feeling and moving emotions - grief, rage, joy, pleasure - instead of being overwhelmed by them. How I’ve shifted from categorising emotions into “days” to understanding that I can hold the full spectrum within a single hour or even moment. The distraction patterns that keep women disconnected from their inner power - appearance, productivity, perfection, “being good.” Why womb-led, heart-led, grounded feminine leadership is what the world needs more than ever. My own evolution from a shy, insular child to a woman stepping into her voice and remembering her inner wildness. The role of decluttering, simplifying, and intentional living as spiritual, emotional, and energetic practices.

    Ep. 45: Rip Up the Job Description

    In this episode, I’m exploring something that came to me during my morning pages...the job descriptions we quietly, unconsciously write for ourselves. The invisible criteria, rules, and qualifications we believe we need to meet before we’re “allowed” to live our own lives fully as who we truly are. I talk about the ways we add to these internal job descriptions over time, how we adopt other people’s expectations as our own, and how this creates a lifelong sense of needing to be “more” or “better” before we can simply be ourselves. We dive into what happens when we reconnect to the essence of who we are beneath all the conditioning. That part of us that is free, limitless, and deeply alive. And we talk about the fear that can arise when we realise how much power and freedom we actually have, and the responsibility that comes with stepping into the driver’s seat of our lives. I share the importance of noticing where we feel resentment, irritation, fear, and stuckness, because these are the breadcrumbs that lead us back to our own liberation. This episode is an invitation to rip up the job description you’ve been quietly living by… and to remember that you don’t need qualifications, permission, or proof to be yourself. You’re already here. You’re already enough. And your soul is asking to live your life as you, messily, imperfectly, honestly, and with wild simplicity.
