Being Soul Confident
Being Soul Confident is the podcast devoted to the lived experience of soul, not as something abstract or distant, but as a consciousness we embody through the human journey.From March 2026, the conversations deepen further into what it truly means to anchor soul into everyday life - into leadership, relationships, business, identity and self-trust.Nicola has worked with energy and soul for over 25 years and is devoted to bridging spiritual awareness with practical integration. This podcast explores what it means to be soul confident, not only in moments of light and expansion, but through shadow, challenge, grief, courage and growth...
E60: Uncertainty is not a Sign to Pause
In this episode, Nic talks about uncertainty as an opportunity to be open to a different perspective and to flow, rather than as a sign to pause or procrastinate.
She talks about confidence being built in the process of action and how being so set on a definitive goal can sometimes blind us, if we're not present, on a different or more aligned potential opening up for us.
Uncertainty - and how we meet it - can also indicate our level of self trust.
How do you meet uncertainty? Does it stop you...
E59: Life is the Playground with Jo Robinson-Howarth
In this episode, Nic chats with the Happiness Club Founder, Jo Robinson-Howarth, about expansion as the purpose of life and how life is the playground we are here to experience.
Jo shares her journey through developing as a therapist and wanting to dispel the myths of therapy and personal development, to show people how beneficial it is to look after yourself every single day. She shares about the ownership we find in taking responsibility for ourselves and deeply appreciating who we are in the moment, as well as the power that comes from recognising, and employing, choice.<...
E58: Slow & Steady Wins The Race
Join Nic as she talks about the difference between the body and mind timelines currently and why it's important to recognise where you are aligned.
She shares about the speed of the mind not being the most stable or sustainable energy to be present with and how the body is recalibrating, like an orchestra being tuned.
She chats about why slow means precise right now and why you won't miss out on anything if you're choosing to pause and be very internally connected.

E57: When is Truth not the Truth?
Join Nic as she chats about truth and why challenging what we believe truth to be is so important.
In a world where we have so much access to so much information, how do we know we can stand fully in our truth, know that it is solid and sustainable unless we are willing to have it challenged and tested, so we can anchor into it and stand fully convicted within it.
Nic chats about why all truths ultimately lead to a dismantling of what is no longer true as we are all connected, all o...
E56: When You Are 'out' of Time
Join Nic as she chats about being 'out' of time - out of the time line, being in 'no' time where time itself is being rearranged around you, which is all about frequency.
Nic shares how this can feel like a sense of nothing coming together, a lack of momentum or flow, as well as a lack of direction or things that seemed right a few weeks ago, not feeling right now.
Nic talks about the importance of holding your frequency, and not giving into uncertainty or taking a step back. A lack of direction...
E55: The Dark Muse with Sophie Leone
Join Nic as she chats with Coach, Writer, Speaker & Author Sophie Leone about her journey from a career in the police to dismantling that identity and living with her full feminine grace.
Sophie talks about being guided by something within that she couldn't deny, which led her to shift from a linear path to a more cyclical, uncertain path where her sense of certainty could only be found in the deep wisdom rising within.
We chat about dismantling identities to uncover the core of who we are and Sophie shares how her softer, wiser voice...
E54: Expansion is Always a Leap
Join Nic as she talks about expansion being a big energy this year and one we are asked to meet in all sorts of ways.
Nic chats about the current expansion energy always being a leap rather than a steady movement forward - a leap into an expanded state or timeline and she shares why trust in self and trust in life is key.
Nic shares about expansion requiring us to meet the unfamiliar within ourselves and why whether we do, or not, soul learns what it needs to - it learns about how we...
E53: The Process is the Transformation
In this episode, Nic follows on from last week, adding in the importance of the process to your outcome because the process is where transformation happens.
The outcome can become purely a transactional thing unless you invest in the journey, in the process and allow yourself to explore who you are through it, how it changes you and what it teaches you about you.
The world is fast, everything wants everything now, and often we do too but that isn't where the gold truly lies. Transformation lies in what you give to the process, to...
E52: Conscious Leadership
In this episode, Nic chats about leadership and how we don't choose to lead but are chosen.
Through filling in an award nomination form and thinking about a question about being a leader, Nic chose to consider leadership from purely a 'self' perspective and she shares about conscious leadership differentiating from leadership itself.
She talks about alignment with values, integrity, ethics and choosing to always come back to truth, to lead from truth and not lose your way within leadership.

E51: The Theory Matters
In this episode Nic talks about why analysing your energetic experience supports it embedding through your energy, and why it also supports conviction and opens up the conversation to others who are not as aware.
Nic shares the importance of you, the human, being fully you and why that matters more to ground and anchor consciousness, than energy and conscious awareness alone.
And she shares why you should never be afraid to try and totally unpick your experience to help it 'make sense', and why that actually enables safety within expansion.

E50: A Small Powerful Word which Can Change Everything
In this episode, Nic shares how a small shift in wording can open possibility and opportunity.

E49: Why your Conscious Perspective Matters
In this episode Nic talks about why the lens you choose to focus your energy and intention through matters.
She shares about the importance of recognising that you are always at choice and how separation is something we have been conditioned to view life through, and yet which creates more separation within us.
Nic chats about why seeing yourself through the lens of wholeness creates opportunities and why that doesn't mean you ignore reality or spiritually bypass, but actually you more fully allow life and your own experiences to move through you and to move...
E48: Anchoring Divine Consciousness
Join Nic as she talks about two keys aspects that are essential to us enabling an anchoring of our divine consciousness - the wider intelligence of which we are part.
Nothing happens within a conscious commitment to be, first of all, in partnership with that extended awareness. We can't anchor anything that we are not a conscious participant in.
And Nic shares why belief, even when logic dictates otherwise is essential. Without belief in that wider experience of who we truly are, we don't fully open, or allow, its experience as part of who we...
E47: How Do We Even Start Anchoring Consciousness?
Join Nic as she talks about how we actually start anchoring consciousness and how it comes back to, in essence and at a foundational level - our truth.
Understanding who we are, and living with authenticity as the individual we are, is the foundational pillar - anchoring our human field consciousness is the only thing that enables wider consciousness to be anchored through us.
Nic shares how we can start to look at alignment with our truth, why honesty with ourselves with who we are now is important and how we need to bring conscious...
E46: Welcome Back - and An Intro to Anchoring Consciousness
Welcome Back! The podcast has had a break, and an upgrade so this is a welcome back to Being Soul Confident but from the deeper aspect of Anchoring Consciousness.
As we embrace the energetic times we are in, it has never been more important to actually anchor - who we are, everything we are and to actually live that fully anchored consciousness right here, right now.
In this episode, I am sharing my thoughts on anchoring consciousness, why it's important, why it matters in terms of contribution and why we can't live soul fully without...
E45: Where are you Surviving rather than Thriving?
Join me for this episode where I share a powerful realisation that was given to me a week or so ago about being in survival mode in some way, shape or form - either within myself or within my life up until this point.
When we are surviving we cannot thrive fully - so, is there an area of being or life where you are just surviving?
Spirit are always guiding us and when we pay attention the step we need appears - and I share a simple word they gave me during meditation which...
E44: Are you using Healing as an Excuse not to Change?
Welcome to E44 of the podcast and in this episode I talk about my belief of Soul as a collective, rather than personal energy and I share why it is important to move first when you are in a space of healing energetic links.
Whether it is past life, collective, ancestral, karmic, specific wounds - are you moving anyway, whilst you are healing those energetic resistances and limitations or are you holding still whilst you 'wait' for them to heal?
I talk about why meeting that energy and choosing to move forward anyway is so...
