Canny Crystals: Manifestation, mindset and spirituality, with Mart Tweedy

In this episode, I’m joined by astrologer, somatic embodiment coach, animist and ordained Interfaith Minister Bunny Love-Schock to explore what it really means to have a love affair with your life. We talk about Bunny’s journey from a high-powered career and complete burnout to building a more intentional, abundant and spiritually connected life.

We delve into manifestation, money and identity, including why receiving our desires can feel more frightening than wanting them, how to distinguish expansion from nervous-system overwhelm, and whether wanting wealth and luxury can be spiritually healthy. We also explore sobriety, ritual, life...

My NDA has finally expired, so in this (the LONGEST podcast episode EVER!!!) I’m sharing the full story of how applying for The Traitors unexpectedly led to me manifesting a place on another major television programme. I’m taking you behind the scenes of the secretive casting process, the fake contestants used during my audition, handing over my entire life and business, and what filming a psychological reality show is actually like when the cameras don’t stop rolling.

I also open up about the gruelling schedule, lack of sleep, explosive arguments, public backlash and the mo...

In this episode, I’m introducing my new 365 Days to Manifest project and exploring why manifestation needs more than positive thinking. If you want something new to enter your life, you need to create more opportunities for it to find you.

I’m sharing how changing your routine, visiting new places, speaking to strangers and making yourself more visible can increase your surface area for luck. You never know which tiny decision, chance conversation or unexpected detour could lead somewhere life-changing.

COME JOIN US AT MANI-FEST 2027!

I hope that you enjo...

This week, I’m taking inspiration from the incredible life and legacy of Dolly Parton and looking at six lessons we can take from the way she lived. From growing up in poverty and refusing to let her circumstances dictate her future, to backing herself, taking action, knowing her worth and never making herself smaller to keep other people comfortable.

I’m also exploring what Dolly can teach us about receiving success, using our abundance for something bigger and actually enjoying the life we’re so busy trying to manifest. This isn’t really an episode about be...

In this episode, I’m answering some of the most common, and slightly unhinged, crystal questions I get asked. From what crystal to use when you’re skint, stuck on a toxic ex or completely lacking motivation, to what you need when you’re overthinking, obsessing over a manifestation or ready to completely change your life.

I’m sharing the specific crystals I’d reach for, why I’d choose them and, most importantly, how I’d actually work with them. Because crystals aren’t just something pretty to sit on a shelf, and I want to show you how...

Have you ever noticed that some of the things you manifested most easily happened before you even knew what manifestation was? You’d think about something you wanted, imagine how amazing it would be, and then get on with your life. There was no obsessing, constantly checking for signs or wondering whether you were doing enough. You wanted it, but you weren’t gripping onto it for dear life.

In this episode, I’m exploring how learning about manifestation can sometimes make us overcomplicate something we used to do naturally. I’m talking about the difference between...

This week I'm sharing one of the strangest stories that's happened to me in a long time. It all started with a cheeky MANI-FEST sticker on an LNER train and ended with Jonny's cousin from Hong Kong unknowingly sitting in the exact same seat just three days later. Whether it was an incredible coincidence or something more, it got me thinking about how many moments in our lives quietly shape our future without us ever realising.

In this episode, I explore the Butterfly Effect of manifestation, why we often overlook the small moments that lead to...

This week's conversation completely changed the way I think about colour. We often assume it's just personal preference, but what if the colours we wear, eat, decorate with and surround ourselves with are quietly influencing our mood, confidence, nervous system and even the way we manifest? Kate Harrison joins me to explore the fascinating world of chromotherapy, where science, psychology and spirituality collide in ways I never expected.

We chat about why we instinctively gravitate towards certain colours, how they affect our subconscious, why I suddenly realised my all-black wardrobe wasn't accidental, and simple ways you...

In this surprise random mini-episode, we're diving into one of the most energetically significant periods of the year as the Aquarius Full Moon, Jupiter Cazimi and the Lionsgate Portal overlap. I'll explain what each of these events means, how they can support your manifestation journey, and why this week is the perfect opportunity to release what's been holding you back and step into your highest timeline.

Whether you're completely new to astrology or have been working with the moon for years, this episode will help you understand the deeper symbolism behind these cosmic events and, more...

This week I'm taking you behind the scenes of one of the biggest weeks I've had in years. I reveal the exciting new venue for MANI-FEST 2027, share my fascinating experience with past life regression, and open up about an emotional energy healing session that uncovered a hidden story my nervous system had been carrying for years.

Whether you believe in past lives or not, this episode is really about identity, self-worth and why the biggest thing holding us back from abundance isn't usually strategy, it's the subconscious beliefs we don't even realise we're carrying. Plus, I...

This week I'm sharing one of the biggest realisations I've had in a long time after returning from holiday in Greece. It made me question whether it's really our surroundings that make us feel calmer, happier and more present, or whether we simply give ourselves permission to become a version of ourselves we've forgotten how to access at home. If you've ever come back from a holiday wishing you could bottle that feeling forever, this episode is for you.

We'll explore why so many people keep slipping back into old habits, how your identity shapes what...

What if fairies are far more than the mythical creatures from children's stories? In this fascinating conversation, I'm joined by bestselling author, fairy expert and oracle creator Karen Kay to explore the world of fairy magic, how she first connected with fairy energy, and why she believes these incredible beings are still communicating with us today. We dive into common misconceptions, signs, synchronicities, oracle cards, and the role fairies can play in manifestation, healing and everyday life.

Whether you're a lifelong believer or a complete sceptic, this episode invites you to see nature, magic and the...

What if some of the fears, beliefs and patterns you've spent your whole life trying to overcome... never actually started with you? In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by author, coach and speaker Tamu Thomas to explore ancestral healing, epigenetics, hyper-independence, burnout, intuition and what it really means to become your ancestors' wildest dreams. Together, we unpack how the lives of those who came before us may still be influencing the way we think, feel and show up today.

We also explore why receiving can feel harder than giving, how to stop living from inherited limitations...

How many ideas have you had over the years that never went anywhere? Not because they were bad ideas, not because they couldn't have worked, but because you convinced yourself you weren't ready.

In this episode, I'm sharing the stories behind three businesses that completely changed the direction of my life, despite the fact I had no experience, no qualifications, and no real idea what I was doing when I started. From walking dogs whilst working in the NHS to launching a sweets delivery business during lockdown, and eventually building Canny Crystals from a simple idea...

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of the event, sharing what went right, what went wrong, and the lessons I learned from reading every single piece of attendee feedback. From frozen intro videos and failing microphones to receiving one negative review amongst hundreds of positive ones, we're diving into why our brains are wired to focus on problems and how that can hold us back from recognising our own growth.

We'll explore perfectionism, negativity bias, self-doubt, visibility, and why creating anything meaningful requires a willingness to be uncomfortable. If you've ever let one...

This week on the podcast I'm throwing it back to 2023 because I've been super busy this week organising MANI-FEST and to be quite honest, I've not had time to fart! This is the first and only time I've ever done this, but I really hope the message of this episode hits hard for you - I know listening back that it did for me! I'll be back to my usual self next Friday with a huge update on how MANI-FEST went. If you want to watch us online from the comfort of your own home, click here - https...

Today on the podcast I’m joined by Ali Mortimer. Ali is an executive coach, mentor and speaker who helps high-performing women create more joy, alignment and fulfilment in their lives, without sacrificing themselves in the process. After navigating her own experiences of grief, burnout, perfectionism and major life challenges, Ali’s work now focuses on helping people reconnect with who they truly are beneath the pressure, expectations and stories they’ve carried for years.

In this episode we dive into everything from joy and success to burnout, identity and Human Design. We explore what happens when l...

In this episode, I'm talking about something I've been thinking a lot about recently: the difference between setting intentions and gripping tightly onto outcomes. After waking up one morning and simply asking, "Show me how good today can get," I realised how much pressure many of us place on ourselves to control every detail of our lives.

I dive into why we often cling so tightly to money goals, relationships, business success and future plans, and how what we call "being driven" can sometimes actually be fear dressed up as productivity. I also explore why some...

In this week's episode, I'm joined by Poppy Delbridge, author of Unlock Your Power, for a conversation that completely flips the way we think about self-sabotage, subconscious patterns and why we sometimes feel stuck even when we know we want more. We dive into the hidden loops quietly running in the background of our lives and how they can shape our decisions, relationships, confidence and future without us even realising it.

We talk about the IMPs, the Seven Keys, how to tell the difference between fear and intuition, why success can sometimes feel uncomfortable, and whether...

What if manifestation isn’t about forcing positivity… but about the tiny things you repeatedly associate emotion with every single day? In this episode, I’m diving deep into energetic anchors, the subconscious triggers quietly shaping your mindset, emotions and reality without you even realising. From Moldavite and symbolic manifestation items to gratitude rituals, shower affirmations and the psychology behind repetition, this episode will completely change how you look at manifestation.

I also share the wild story of how The Traitors winner Rachel Duffy ended up buying Moldavite from my website before going on the show, along...

Ever felt like you’re doing all the manifestation “right” things… but nothing’s actually happening? In this episode, I’m talking about that frustrating in-between phase where you’ve got the desire but zero evidence. I break down why this happens, how control and fear might be running the show without you realising, and what you need to shift so you stop blocking what’s trying to come in.

I walk you through 7 practical steps to build real belief without forcing it, trust yourself instead of constantly looking for signs, and open yourself up to outcomes that ar...

What do you do when your manifestation feels like it’s gone quiet? In this episode, I open up about a recent season where things slowed down, the panic that crept in, and the urge to force momentum back into place. We explore the hidden pressure to always be “in alignment” and why trying to fix everything can actually pull you further away from what you want.

This is a deeper conversation about the parts of manifestation no one really talks about. The quieter phases where things aren’t obvious, but something important is still unfolding. If you’v...

In this episode, I’m taking you deeper into subliminal affirmations beyond just how they work. I share what I’ve learned through personal experience and research, from why silence after listening helps your brain integrate information, to how sound is processed as data, and why listening all night can actually leave you feeling more tired. I talk about the shift I made from 8-hour tracks to 4-hour subliminals, how that improved my sleep and clarity, and how this has supported me in business, confidence, and everyday decision-making.

I also break down the layers within my subl...

You’re not stuck, even if it feels like it right now. I see this all the time, where it looks like your circumstances are the problem, but it’s actually the patterns, beliefs, and unconscious habits running in the background that are keeping things the same. When you start looking there instead of trying to force change externally, everything begins to make more sense. That’s when things really start to shift.

In this episode, I go deeper into what’s actually driving your thoughts, actions, and results day to day. It might feel a bit unco...

Lately, I’ve not felt like myself, and for the first time I’m properly opening up about it. In this episode, I share what burnout actually looked like for me behind the scenes. The long hours, the pressure, the grief, and the moment that made me stop in my tracks and realise something had to change. If you’ve been feeling flat, overwhelmed or like you’re constantly “on” but not fully there, this will hit home.

This is my journey from burnout to breakthrough. The shifts I’ve started making, the boundaries I should’ve put in place...

In this episode, I sit down with Claire Grabham to explore the Harmonic Egg and the powerful blend of sound healing, light therapy and sacred geometry that sits at the heart of it. We dive into what the Egg actually is, how it works, and why these frequencies and colour wavelengths can help bring the body and mind back into balance. Claire shares how the principles of sacred geometry, including the significance of 3, 6 and 9, are woven into the design to enhance harmony and energetic alignment, creating a space where the nervous system can soften and the body can begin...

This week really stopped me in my tracks. Just two days into Abundance on Tap, I’ve seen people experience real, tangible shifts. Money landing, opportunities appearing, things moving quickly… and it made me realise something slightly uncomfortable... that NONE of the tools they’re using are new!!! Tapping, subliminals, journalling, shifting thoughts… most of us have known about these for years. So why are the results only happening now?

In this episode, I talk about the gap between knowing and actually doing. Why we tend to dabble instead of commit, why we wait until we “feel like...

In this episode, I sit down with Matt Cooke, author of Beyond Wanting, to explore why so many people feel stuck chasing the life they want without ever fully stepping into it. We go far deeper than surface-level manifestation, unpacking how identity, the subconscious mind, and the nervous system shape our reality far more than desire alone ever could. Matt shares his own powerful journey into this work, from a high-pressure corporate life to a profound spiritual awakening, and we dive into the idea that wanting something can actually reinforce the very gap we’re trying to close.

This week on the podcast, I’m sharing ten simple manifestation experiments you can try over the next seven days. Instead of treating manifestation like a rigid formula, I invite you to approach it with curiosity and playfulness. From shifting the language you use about your life, to noticing evidence of abundance, taking aligned action, and even learning the power of letting go, these small experiments are designed to gently change the way you think, feel, and move through the world.

If you actually try these rather than just listening to them, you might be surprised by...

In this episode, I sit down with Francesca Amber for a raw and honest conversation about what it really takes to step into your next level. We talk about growth that stretches your nervous system, the pressure that comes with visibility, and the uncomfortable truth that sometimes the only thing holding you back is you. From self-love and sustainable weight loss to fear of being seen and the reality of running live events, this is a behind-the-scenes look at expansion in real time.

We also explore manifestation in a deeper way, the power of in-person energy...

In this episode, I’m diving into the emotional side of money. If you’ve ever felt shame, guilt, panic or discomfort around finances, even when you “should” be fine, this is for you. I’m unpacking childhood money stories, fear of judgement, guilt about outgrowing people, scarcity panic and why money can feel unsafe in the body even when you consciously want more.

We’ll explore how tapping and nervous system regulation can help you heal old money wounds so you can actually feel calm looking at your bank account, confident asking for more and safe raising...

Have you ever noticed you’re actually quite good at manifesting… but not so good at keeping what you manifest? In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reason success, money and opportunities can slip through your fingers, even when you’re doing all the “right” things.

We’re diving into self-sabotage cycles, upper limits, identity ceilings and why holding wealth is a skill your nervous system has to feel safe with. If you’re ready to stop the spike-and-drop pattern and finally build the capacity to stay at your next level, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m diving into the real story behind Friday the 13th and questioning why we’ve been taught to fear it in the first place. I explore the Christian roots of the superstition, how pop culture amplified the idea of it being “unlucky”, and then peel back the layers to reveal something far more powerful. Long before it was feared, the number 13 was sacred, deeply connected to lunar cycles, the feminine body and goddess traditions. So how did something symbolic of intuition and creation become something we flinch at?

We also look at the supp...

In this episode, I’m talking directly to parents who feel like their dream life has been put on pause. If you’ve ever thought “I don’t have the time, energy, or headspace to manifest anymore”, this one’s for you. I share why becoming a parent doesn’t block your ability to manifest, it changes it, and how trying to force old routines into a new season of life can create more frustration than flow.

We explore how manifestation can work in real parent life without perfect routines, long rituals, or extra pressure. From nervous system...

In this episode, I’m sharing what honestly felt like a surreal January and why I know it wasn’t luck or coincidence. After fully embodying gratitude through my 31 Days of Gratitude practice, opportunities started appearing from nowhere. From unexpected gifts and invitations to moments that genuinely made me question reality, this episode isn’t about the things themselves, it’s about the internal shift that caused them. I talk about how gratitude moved me out of effort and into trust, and why that energetic change is where real magnetism begins.

I also share why gratitude alone is...

In this episode I’m talking about the very real, very human truth that you’re allowed to change your mind. I share how shifting your goals, timelines, identity or even the things you once wanted to manifest isn’t failure, it’s feedback. We look at how to recognise when something no longer fits, why clinging to old dreams can feel so heavy, and how to see your evolution as a sign of growth rather than proof you “got it wrong”.

I also dive into the nervous system side of change, the pressure to be “consistent”, a...

In this episode, I explore why self-love is the missing piece for so many people when it comes to manifestation. I share how self-love isn’t indulgence or positivity, but deep energetic alignment, and why what we attract is shaped by how safe, worthy, and grounded we feel within ourselves.

We look at how self-talk, nervous system regulation, and releasing the need to chase outcomes makes you more magnetic to abundance. This episode is about shifting from forcing manifestations to allowing them, by coming back into a respectful, supportive relationship with yourself.

In this episode, I’m joined by Victoria Jackson to talk about her brand new book, RESET, and what it really means to realign your life. We dive into self-worth, energetic integrity, identity shifts and embodiment, and how feeling flat or disconnected is often the catalyst for deep transformation. Victoria shares her own reset journey with honesty and warmth, exploring why surface-level manifestation doesn’t stick unless you address what’s happening underneath.

We also explore the RESET Formula, energy leaks, boundaries, forgiveness and why becoming your future self is more powerful than just setting goals. This i...

In this episode of the pod, I share the energy I’m carrying into this year, why hustle isn’t the frequency I’m choosing anymore, and how I’m holding vision without force. If you’ve been craving a calmer, more aligned way to move through the year ahead, this episode will help you reconnect with yourself and set a foundation that actually feels good to live inside!
