Fully Blooming

Wrapping up 2024 with this final solo episode. I share about the last couple of weeks where I've felt like 2024 was trying to squeeze everything misaligned out of me in preparation for 2025. I open up about how it feels like to be 'held hostage by your mind' and share my methods of getting yourself out of the other side.

I wish you all a magical, exciting and fun 2025! 💕💫

I am so grateful for you all listening and supporting.

See you next year!

This meditation will help you to bring closure, gratitude and acceptance to your year so that you can step into 2025 feeling fresh and aligned.

Allow this meditation to guide you to the key moments that your soul wants you to recognise from this past year, to acknowledge the learnings and to take any final, necessary action.

This week I'm joined by the incredible writer, Katz Llale. I came across her writing a couple of months ago and felt so drawn to her work and her message. I'm sure you'll hear how excited I was to have her join me on this episode and how aligned our messaging is. I love this discussion as we share what it means to be visible and how to embrace the excitement that comes with receiving the attention for our gifts and talents. She is a true advocate of sharing your light with the world and embodies everything that I...

Enjoy the wealth of knowledge that Tara Ghosh, Certified Women's Hormone Coach, has to share on cyclical living.

Tara talks us through the way that we can benefit from living cyclically, how our cycle is more than just when we bleed and the simple ways that you can improve how you feel, especially during our Autumn and Winter.

This episode is for everyone, not just people who have a cycle. With 50% of the world experiencing this on a day to day basis, it's important for men to also understand and acknowledge our cycle. Share it...

Join me this week as I explore the importance of intentionally spending time alone (the origins of the word being all-one) and allow yourself the time and space to come back to you, your truth, your love.

The reclamation of ourselves is the single biggest gift you can give yourself.

In this short episode, I briefly look back over the past year, address grief and hopefully offer a little warmth, excitement and hope to those who may be experiencing the same.

It's a unique and individual process with no right or wrong way to do it.

We discuss what excitement actually is, how to tap into it, use it to your benefit and the power it has to change the course of your life. Hedva and I are both in agreement that this is something that everyone can do, we've simply...

In this episode, we delve into the relationship between commitment and self-worth, and how committing to ourselves allows us to develop our own self-worth rather than looking externally for validation.

Tips on how to clear and empty your digital space so that more aligned things to come into your life.

I also share why I came off Instagram and how consuming so much information can remove and distract you from your own intuition, thoughts and beliefs.

✨ The more we look externally for answers, the less we tune in internally.

Let's start thinking for ourselves and tuning in to what WE want, not what we've been told is "right" for us.

In this episode, I dive into when we should be thinking before we speak and when to allow ourselves to speak freely. Because to truly honour our intuition, we also need to honour our voices.

How often do we silence our true desires and needs because we're afraid of what others might think or say?

How much do we censor ourselves for fear of judgement?

⚖️ Join me on this week's episode as I discuss my own interesting relationship with the masculine and feminine energy within me. From overdoing it and burning out, to doing nothing at all because "it doesn't feel right". I believe that it's a constantly adjusting balancing act with different seasons and times of our lives.

I also share how I've come to figure out whether it's my intuition saying no (tuning into my feminine energy) or resistance and fear stopping me (my mind).

In this meditation, I guide you to ground and reconnect with your body before asking you a question to help you discover what you truly think and believe about yourself.

Approach this meditation with the intention of deeper self-discovery and take some time afterwards to integrate what you find.

You may be surprised what comes up - don't judge yourself but observe and allow yourself to delve in deeper to these beliefs.

Every time you listen to this meditation, your answers may change.

After hours of voice notes over the almost 2 years we've known each other, Em and I decided to share some of our own thoughts, reflections and experiences with you too. (This will not be the last one, that's for sure!)

We talk about how our friendship has healed our sisterhood wounding and how life-changing it has been to have someone who always sees the highest version of you, especially when you can't.

Em & I have chosen to live an "alternative" lifestyle and have realised the pressures that we both put ourselves under to be a "...

In today's episode, I give a little life update and share the incident that happened to me a few days ago, how I'm moving through it and the main emotions that are present for me right now: anger and shame.

Shame has been a topic that has come up a lot recently, for myself and for my clients. I talk about how shame is incredibly smart in that it stops us from allowing us to observe the needs, wants and desires beneath it.

Did you know that there's different types of intuition?

This week, I had the absolute pleasure of welcoming Hillary McVeigh, a Human Design reader and teacher guiding and teaching us about all of the different types of authorities in Human Design. If you're new to HD or have worked with it before, this episode is a great introduction or reminder of how to truly work with your own intuition.

Hillary has such a grounded approach and advice to share with us so that you can feel confident in applying your design in the real world...

In this bonus episode, I answer a listener's question using my own experience in the last couple of days and giving suggestions of how to move through this challenging time:

"How do you deal with being alone when everything around you is new (there is a cultural and language barrier too) and you feel completely overwhelmed with everything, whilst there is no one who can help you."

I also cover:

Apologies for the knocks at the start.

Our bodies know it all, they know how to thrive, how to heal, how to release.

This meditation guides you to connect to, and allow yourself to be flooded with, the colour red, the colour of your root chakra, and to allow its energy to start flowing through and around you.

You'll release any excess energy and return to your own purity, calmness and alignment. Notice if you feel any energy or presence near you, supporting you as you move forwards.

In this episode, I have the pleasure of welcoming my first guest onto my show: my own Mama - Katarzyna Rutkowska-Parkes, a healer and therapist. We discuss a topic that I don't feel is talked about enough: how the dynamics shift change between children and their parents as the children grow older and become adults themselves.

We also discuss how, as much as we're led to believe, there is no "right" or "wrong" way to do things and how to embark on your healing journey with an open and compassionate mindset.

🩸 In this episode, I discuss the shame I've personally experienced surrounding my menstrual cycle, using my menstrual blood as a face mask and even using the words womb and yoni. I delve into the societal pressures that make us as women hesitant to freely share and express these aspects of their lives, which are, fundamentally, simply a part of our existence being a woman, for fear of being shamed, isolated or rejected. I've had enough and I'm doing my best to no longer subscribe to that fear.

Additionally, I explore the concept of authenticity and how we can...

Ground down into your body, reconnect with your solar plexus; the source of your confidence, assertiveness and self acceptance and clear anything from the past day or week that you don't want to take any further with you.

Join me as I discuss how we can use healing as a barrier to taking the steps forward. That there is no end goal with healing and we may as well get going and do the things we want to rather than waiting for the moment we feel "perfect".

I talk about my journey to intuitive healing and how I've had to work on my confidence and work through my imposter syndrome with simply "knowing things".
