104 The One Thing Blocking Your Healing (And How to Fix It).
Today we’re going to explore the single most powerful thing standing between you and your body’s ability to truly heal. What is it? Drumroll, please… it’s stress.
Yep, that’s right. Stress is the ultimate party pooper when it comes to your body’s ability to repair, restore, and regenerate.
No matter what you’re trying to heal—whether it’s chronic pain, digestive issues, hormonal imbalances,
103 Let It Go: Why Detachment Is the Secret to Getting What You Want.
What if the thing standing between you and what you want, is your desperate need to have it? Yep. Annoying, isn't it? You want the relationship. The baby. The house. The money. The job. You want your body to look a certain way. You want someone to finally apologise.
You want your life to go in a particular direction, and so you hold on tighter.
You think about it. You visualise it. You analyse
102 How to Live A Happy Life.
This week, in the lead up to World Mental Health Day, I have a challenge for you… I challenge you to make a choice that will change the rest of your life. And that choice, is to be happy.
Hold on, you might say. How can I guarantee that I will remain happy from this day forward? Well, there’s really not much we can control in this life, but the one thing we do have control over, is how we feel a
101 What If Success Isn’t What You Think It Is?
Success. It’s the shiny word plastered across billboards, woven into glossy magazine spreads, and whispered in boardrooms and school assemblies alike.
We’re taught to chase it, from the moment we can walk. Get the gold star at school. The straight A’s. The promotion. The house. The car. The six-figure salary. The six-pack abs. The picture-perfect family holiday in Bali with matching linen outfit
100 How A Beginner’s Mind Can Reconnect You With Joy + Wonder.
When was the last time you did something like it was the very first time? Like you were discovering it? Curious about it? Open to it? Not rushing it… Not judging it… Not comparing it to how it should be… or how it was in the past… But simply experiencing it, with fresh eyes?
Most of us don’t live that way anymore. We live in the land of “I already know. I’ve done this before. I get it. I’ve hear
99 Why I Built A School To Help You Not Need Me!
Today we’re talking about Getting Naked. And no — not that kind of naked. Although honestly? Emotional nakedness is far more confronting than physical nakedness anyway.
This episode has been a long time coming. Because so many of you are in my world — listening to this podcast, reading things I write, maybe doing one or more of my programs — but I’ve never actually sat down and said:
Here’s
98 Healing Fibroids: Taking Back Your Health and Your Uterus.
If there’s one health issue I hear about again and again from women, it’s fibroids. And it’s often paired with confusion, fear, or pressure to make quick decisions.
So if you’ve been diagnosed with fibroids, if you’ve been told ‘just keep an eye on them’, or worse—if you’ve been made to feel afraid, powerless, or rushed into surgery… Take a deep breath with me right now.
Because this conversa
97 Vaginal Steaming: Ancient Wisdom for Modern Women's Health.
Have you ever heard of vaginal steaming… and thought… Wait… women are doing WHAT now? Or maybe you’ve heard it called yoni steaming, womb steaming, V-steaming — and you’ve felt curious… but also a little unsure.
Today on I Love Me The Podcast I want to lovingly demystify this ancient women’s practice, share why it’s making such a powerful comeback, and introduce you to Pelvic Steam Therapy — a h
96 How To Finally Feel Safe Again.
Have you ever noticed that sometimes, even when life seems fine, something inside you still feels tense, guarded, or off? Maybe you feel a little anxious, or assume you’re just ‘overthinking’ things. That’s your body whispering the truth: It doesn’t feel safe.
When we don’t feel safe, it isn’t just a mental thing. It lives in our bodies. It lives in the way we hold our pelvis, the tightness in
95 Awakened Womanhood, Conscious Birth & Body Trust with Suraj Bryson.
Birthing used to be one of my biggest fears. For most of my life, I carried the same stories many women do — that birth is dangerous, traumatic, painful, and something our bodies can’t truly handle without intervention. And when I started feeling the call to conceive, I knew I had to face that fear head on.
That journey led me to someone very special — Suraj Bryson — a woman who has spent more t

If you’ve ever felt that tug in your chest at this time of year — the craving for warmth, quiet, softness, or a return to yourself — you’re already responding to the power of Winter Solstice. Most people rush through June (or December if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere) thinking it’s ‘just cold’, but it’s not.
Winter Solstice is one of the most ancient and meaningful turning points on Earth’s
93 What Water Shows Us About Self-Love: Lessons from Dr. Emoto.
Have you ever gazed at a glass of water and wondered… What if this isn’t just a glass of H₂O — but a reflection of everything I feel inside? And what if the way I treat myself… The words I say to myself… The beliefs I carry about who I am… Actually show up in the very cells of my body?
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re diving into the work of Japanese researcher Dr. Masaru Emoto and his wate
92 Losing the Label: How Letting Go of Identity Can Set You Free.
Imagine walking through life with a label stuck to your forehead. It might say ‘depressed’, ‘anxious’, ‘lazy’, ‘introvert’, ‘too much’, or ‘not enough’.
Everywhere you go, people see it. And slowly—quietly—you start to believe it. That label doesn’t just describe you. It begins to define you.
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re exploring what it would mean to lose the labels we’ve placed on
91 How to Solve All Your Problems in Life (The Self-Love Way).
What if I told you that every single problem in your life — big or small — stems from just one thing? And that if you could shift that one thing, your entire reality would begin to transform? Now, I know that sounds like a bold claim. But hear me out…
Because whether you’re struggling with your relationship, your finances, your health, or that endless feeling of ‘I’m not where I should be in lif
90 Healing Vaginismus: Softening the Body & Reclaiming Your Pleasure.
Today we’re diving into a topic that so many women silently struggle with, but almost no one talks about openly. And honestly? We need to talk about it. We need to take it out of the shadows, out of the Google search tabs at 2am, out of the quiet shame curled up in the back of your mind… and bring it into the light.
So let’s talk about vaginismus. Yep, we’re going there today, so if you have lit
89 The Letting Go Letter: How to Free Yourself from Emotional Baggage.
Today, I want to share something that might just change the way you move through emotional pain forever. It’s one of my favourite tools — something I’ve used personally and shared with countless clients over the years — because it’s that powerful.
It’s called The Letting Go Letter.
And no, it’s not just another journaling exercise. It’s a sacred emotional detox — a way to literally set yoursel
88 Hurt People, Hurt People - Until They Heal.
Today I’d like to have a gentle conversation with you about the emotion of hurt. That quiet ache in your chest when someone hurts you… the sting when trust is broken… the heaviness when you feel unseen or dismissed. It’s tender. It’s real. And it matters.
In this week’s episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we explore the true purpose of hurt — and how, when met with compassion, it can actually guid
87 How to Eat for Peace, Pleasure & Perfect Digestion.
Let’s explore something that affects our energy, our mood, our clarity, our emotions — and honestly, our entire life: How we eat. And no — not what we eat. We talk about that everywhere else. Everyone has an opinion — paleo, vegan, gluten free, carnivore, keto, lemon water with unicorn tears…
But today isn't about food rules. Today is about how we eat. Because here’s a truth we rarely hear: We c
86 The Spleen, Late Summer & Reclaiming Your Energy.

What if the secret to attracting The One — or bringing your current relationship back to life — wasn’t out there… but already within you?
So many of us spend years searching for love, longing for it, or struggling inside relationships that feel stuck, believing the answer is about finding the 'right' person.
But what if, instead of chasing love, we started cultivating it?
In the first episode
84 The Best Gift Isn’t Under the Tree, It’s YOU (And Your Presence).
Today, we’re unwrapping a topic that feels extra close to my heart this time of year… and no, it’s not about what’s under the tree. It’s all about Christmas Presence—yep, you heard that right… presence, not presents.
Because while gifts wrapped up in shiny paper are lovely, the most powerful gift you can offer your loved ones this holiday season isn’t something you can buy in a shop or pop in a
83 The 5-Minute Dance Break That Could Change Your Life.
When was the last time you let yourself dance — like, really dance? Not at a wedding. Not in a class. Just you, barefoot, unfiltered, hips wiggling, shoulders shaking, letting your body speak in its own beautiful language.
In this episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we dive into the wildly underrated magic of movement — how a single song can shift your mood, clear stuck emotion, calm your nervous
82 Boundaries: The Self-Love Skill That Changes Everything.
As we move towards the end of the year, I’ve been hearing the same thing from so many women:
“I feel stretched… thin.”
“I’m overwhelmed but still saying yes.”
“I’m exhausted from holding everyone else together.”
And if any part of you is quietly nodding right now, this week’s episode of I Love Me: The Podcast was made for you. Because today we’re diving straight into a topic that most people m
81 Living in Sync with Summer: Support Your Heart & Shine Without Burning Out.
Have you noticed it yet? That subtle shift as we step into Summer — the longer days, the buzzy energy, the pressure to ‘make the most of it’, the sudden calendar creep. For many people, this season feels both expansive and exhausting. You might be feeling:
More social, but also more overstimulated
More energised, yet strangely tired
More ‘alive’, but also a bit scattered or easily overwhelmed

80 Your Body Can Heal Itself: Unlock Your Natural Healing Capacity.
Today we’re talking about your body’s natural ability to heal — and why so many of us never learned how to tap into it.
This episode on I Love Me The Podcast breaks open the idea that healing is something ‘out there’ you need to earn, chase, or fight for… and instead shows you what the science, the ancient wisdom, and your own lived experience all confirm:
Your body is constantly regenerating.
79 Healing Through Self-Love: When Your Body Screams, Listen.
Have you ever felt frustrated, disappointed, or even angry at your body when pain or illness shows up? I know that feeling well. I’ve been there—thinking my body had let me down, believing that pain meant I was failing somehow.
But here’s the truth: Pain isn’t a punishment. It’s a message. A loving call from your body, asking you to slow down, to listen, to nurture yourself.
In this week’s epi
78 Turning Wounds into Wisdom: Matt Catling on Healing, NLP & Creating Your Dream Life
Every now and then, you sit down with someone and the conversation is just too powerful to keep behind closed doors. Back in 2021, I had the privilege of interviewing someone who has completely shaped the direction of my life — Matt Catling. At the time, this conversation was shared exclusively inside one of my programs, but today I’m thrilled to release it publicly for the very first time.

77 The Magic Of Mantras - How Words Transform Your Life.

76 Dear Me, I Love You: The Power Of A Love Card.
When was the last time you wrote yourself a love letter? Not a text. Not a journal entry. But a real, handwritten message of love — sealed, stamped, and sent through the mail — to you. 💌
It might sound simple (or even a little silly), but this small, heartfelt ritual has the power to open something deep inside you. It’s called The Love Card — and it’s what we’re exploring in this week’s episode
75 Acceptance: The First Step In Healing.
Have you ever noticed how much energy we spend trying not to feel what we’re feeling? We push. We fix. We rush. We tell ourselves, “If I can just change this one thing… then I’ll be okay.” But what if true healing doesn’t come from fighting life—but from finally saying yes to it?
This week on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re exploring acceptance—not as resignation or defeat, but as one of the most c
74 Body Dysmorphia + Falling in Love with Your Looks.
Have you ever stood in front of the mirror and thought… “If only this part of me were different…If only I looked more like them… If only I could fix this, then I’d finally feel okay”?
I know that ache — because for years, I lived it too. I battled with body dysmorphia, constantly comparing, constantly critiquing, never feeling enough — no matter how “together” I looked on the outside. And what I
73 Mental Health Begins With How You Treat Yourself.
If you’ve ever battled the weight of depression, the racing thoughts of anxiety, or the constant nagging of your inner critic, you know how exhausting it can feel.
That quiet voice inside that whispers: “You’re not enough.” “You should be coping better.” “Everyone else seems to have it together.” It’s relentless. And it can leave you feeling like you’re stuck in a loop you can’t get out of.

72 How To Be Your Own Zen Master (Without The Robe).

That’s where today’s topic comes in: Zen. And how you can become your very own Zen Master. Yes, today on I Love Me the Podcast, we’re divin
71 Let Guilt Teach You, Not Torture You.
Today, we’re diving deep into an emotion that doesn’t often get the love it deserves: Guilt. An emotion we tend to push away, hide from, or drown out.
But what if — instead of resisting guilt — we got curious about it? What if guilt wasn’t here to punish us… But to guide us?
Today on I Love Me The Podcast we’re exploring the true purpose of guilt, and how to use guilt to evolve into a more ali
70 How Money Stress Impacts Your Pelvic Health.
You’d never ignore a cry for help from someone you love. So why do we dismiss the whispers — and sometimes screams — of our own body?
Your pelvis… that sacred, often overlooked part of you… has stories to tell. And today, it might be trying to tell you something you’ve never considered before: That your relationship with money could be affecting your pelvic health. Yes, truely.
In this episode
69 The Posture Shift Every Woman Needs To Ease Back Pain & Enjoy Pelvic Harmony.
The way a woman stands, walks, and moves tells a powerful story. It speaks to how confident she feels… how safe she feels in her body… and whether her structure is supporting her—or working against her.
You see, every moment, our posture is either creating tension in our body… or releasing it. We’re either holding stress and discomfort… or softening into ease, resilience, and flow.
And for man
68 Busy Isn’t a Badge: The Power of Slow Living And Doing Less.
Have you noticed how often people ask, “Keeping busy?” And how it’s almost always said like a good thing? Somewhere along the line, “busy” became synonymous with “successful,” “worthy,” “productive,” even “important.” As if our value lives in how many plates we’re spinning.
If you’re feeling stretched thin, running on adrenaline and coffee, wondering why rest never quite feels restful anymore… t

64 Why You Need A Goal (Even If It’s The Wrong One).
Many people hesitate on setting a goal for themselves. What if it’s not the right one? What if it’s coming from a place of fear or doubt or Ego? What if I don’t even know what I really want?
Let me say this: Your goal doesn’t need to be perfect. It simply needs to be powerful enough to get you moving.
On today’s episode of I Love Me the Podcast, we’re exploring how setting any goal - no matter
63 Adversity: A Deeper Take On Why Sh*tty Things Happen.
If there’s one question I get asked all the time, it’s this: How do you always turn life’s messiest moments into something magical? How do you take setbacks, heartbreak, and straight up shitty situations… and somehow spin them into gold? Well…
That’s exactly what we’re diving into today on I Love Me The Podcast. Because let’s be real… Bad things happen, even to the best of us. But what if those
62 Leaning Into The Unknown: Where Life Truely Begins.
Let’s talk about the part of life we so often avoid - the uncertain, the unplanned, the uncomfortable... the unknown. While the unknown can feel unsettling, stir up every part of us that craves certainty, safety and control…
The truth is.. It’s only when we step into the unknown whole-heartedly, that we can experience growth, expansion, something new, and more aligned with who we are. For the mo

60 Sleep Like Your Life Depends On It: The Healing Power Of A 10pm Bedtime.
You know that 'ahhhhhh' feeling when you wake up after a seriously good night’s sleep? That magical unicorn of a morning when your eyes pop open before the alarm - or the kids - you stretch like a satisfied cat, and for a moment, you feel unstoppable.

57 Staying True To Yourself Inside An Intimate Relationship.
If there’s one thing that intimate relationships do exceptionally well, it’s holding up a mirror to who we are. They can be the most beautiful, heart-opening experiences, yet they can also challenge us in ways that nothing else can.
And the biggest challenge of all? Staying true to yourself while being deeply connected to someone else.
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re exploring how to mai
56 Upgrade Your Environment, Upgrade Your Life.
It’s often said that we become like the people we spend the most time with… and in my experience this is true…
But it’s not just the people - it’s everything around us. The books we read. The content we absorb while online. The conversations we engage with. The spaces we work and live in.
Our environment is either lifting us up, or holding us back. And the wildest past? Most of us don’t even r
55 The Self-Love Chemical Cocktail: The Science Behind Feeling Good!
What if I told you that self-love isn’t just a mindset - but a chemical response happening inside your body, right now? Dopamine. Oxytocin. Serotonin. Endorphins.
These aren’t just fancy science words - they’re the feel-good ‘dream team’ - the chemicals that light you up from the inside out. The chemicals we want our body producing to support us in feeling all loved up.
Problem is… Most of us
54 From Self To World: A Loving-Kindness Meditation For All Beings.

53 One Tree. One Decision. That’s All It Takes To Help Mother Earth!
Four years ago, I made a decision - one that felt small at the time but has grown into something so much bigger. I decided to give back to the very Earth that gives us everything, by donating a percentage of my earnings from my Getting Naked school, to plant trees though the amazing charity, Just One Tree.
Fast forward to today, and every single program, every single enrolment, helps get more tr
52 Ditch Your Shoes, Heal Your Body! The Magic Of Earthing.
Have you ever noticed how amazing it feels to walk barefoot on fresh grass, or sink your toes into sand on a beach? This isn’t just a a ‘feel good’ moment; you’re actually Earthing!
Science shows that when we ditch the shoes, it’s like plugging our body into nature’s Wifi, for better health, better sleep and a whole lot of ‘feel-good’ energy. While it may sound too good to be true, the simple ac
51 Don’t Hate Money, Date Money.
If there’s one topic that make people squirm on the self-love journey, it’s money. Yep, the big awkward, avoid-at-all-costs ‘M’ word!
But here’s the truth… If you want to grow real, unapologetic self-love, you’ve got to tackle your ‘money story’. Why?
Because our sense of worth and how much we value ourself, is deeply intertwined with our relationship with money.
That’s why today on I Love M
50 When Our Stories Reach Their Expiry Date.
We all have a story. And within that story are many other stories that we tell ourself on a daily basis. Stories about why our life is the way it is, or is not, and why we can or can’t have the things that we so desire.
But what if the stories we’re telling ourself, are not serving us anymore? What if they’re contributing to a life that feels ‘less than’ or downright hard? What if these stories
49 Balance Your Mind And Body With This Simple Breath Practice.
When was the last time you actually paid attention to your breath? Like really noticed it? If your answer is ‘Ummm… breathing is automatic, isn’t it?’ then this episode is for you.
While our autonomic nervous system does take care of breathing for us, so we don’t die, we can consciously use our breath to balance our emotions, boost our energy and even calm our mind so we can enjoy a restful nigh
48 Nourish Your Lungs For A Healthy, Happy Autumn.
Here in the Southern Hemisphere the air’s getting crisper, the leaves are changing colour, and our Lungs… well.. they need a little extra TLC right about now. Why?
Because in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Autumn is ‘Lung season’, meaning these precious air-breathing, life-giving organs are at their most vulnerable. And if our Lungs are not healthy and strong, this is the time we’ll fall prey to
47 Grief, Love And Letting Go: The Hidden Wisdom Of Sadness.
While many of us like to run and hide from big, heavy emotions, I believe every emotion has a seat at the table. Yes, even the messy tear-filled ones, like Sadness and even Grief.
While they may show up at the party uninvited, eat all the snacks and refuse to leave, Sadness and Grief aren’t just here to make us miserable. No, these two emotions show up to offer us some wise lessons about life, l
46 Why Your Bra May Not Be Your Breast Friend!
Today we’re diving into into a topic that’s very close to my heart - literally. We’re talking about breast health.
Those beautiful, powerful extensions of our heart, and how they’re not just physical, but deeply emotional and spiritual. Because contrary to what you may have been led to believe, our breasts aren’t just there for function and form.
I like to think of breasts, like the heart’s me
45 Self-Massage. The Healing Power Of Loving Touch.
Today we’re rolling up our sleeves and getting hands-on with the ultimate self-care practice: Self-massage.
Now before you start thinking, ‘Oh, I can just pay someone else to give me a massage’ or ask my partner, we don’t want to get in the habit of outsourcing our self-love. While I certainly do enjoy receiving a massage from a professional or my husband occasionally, there is so much healing w
44 The Root Cause Of Binge Eating.
I’d like to invite you to sit with this question….
How is your relationship with food?
If you’ve ever felt trapped in a cycle of guilt or shame or frustration around what you eat or how much you eat - you’re not alone. With all the conflicting food advice, and pressures to look a certain way, eating has become smothered in all kinds of harmful emotions, that trigger off unhealthy eating habits
43 Infuse Your Day With Love On This International Self-Love Day (AND Everyday).
Can I let you in on a little secret? You don’t need to ADD more to your already full plate, to enjoy the magic of self-love. You don’t need to journal each day, take bubble baths every other night or spend hours in meditation… unless of course you want too…
Instead, you can sprinkle love into what you ALREADY do each day. Whether it’s your morning cuppa tea, folding the laundry, or that five min
42 There’s Not Enough Time, Or Is There?
If there’s one thing that gets in the way of people actively engaging in self-love, it’s time. Or a lack there of.
It’s very common for people to use ‘not having enough time’ as a reason to NOT do the things they want or need, to live happy and fulfilling lives. We get so caught up in the hustle and bustle, essentially mimicking a hamster on a never ending wheel of to-do lists…
What’s the firs
41 Chasing Cars Around Your Head? Let’s Meditate.
Imagine your mind, for a moment, as a busy street… with thoughts zooming by like cars on a 6-lane highway. Some cars drive past multiple times a day, maybe even multiple times per minute… while others run into us at full speed, knocking us into a state of emotional turmoil, reactivity and anxiety.
These cars represent our thoughts, emotions and programmed beliefs; they clutter up our mind and ge
40 The Physiology Of Fear: How Our Body Responds To Stress And Fear.
We all feel fear. It’s a primal emotion, that’s deeply ingrained in human evolution, essential for our survival in the face of danger.
But what happens when we experience prolonged states of fear? When we let fear invade our lives multiple times per day?
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we learn how to love away our fear, so it doesn’t cripple our immune system and get in the way of us living h
39 When Little Miss Fear Drops Round For A Cuppa.
Fear has this remarkable ability to immobilise us. To make us second-guess our decisions, our actions… And keep us rooted in the familiar.
But what if we could have a different relationship with fear? What if, instead of seeing fear as scary - a reason to run away and hide - we saw fear as a guiding force, nudging us towards our fullest potential?
Today on I Love Me the Podcast, we explore th
38 Be Kind Whenever Possible. It Is ALWAYS Possible.
I love this quote from the Dalai Lama: ‘Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible’. Always possible, but not always practiced.
Hence why I invite you to consider for a moment…
- Are you being kind?
- Kind to yourself?
- Kind to the people around you?
- Do you move through your day with the intention of being kind?
Kindness is a necessary path to self-love. It’s something we can practi
37 Let Food Be Thy Self-Loving Medicine.
What if every bite you took was an act of self-love?
Well… it can be, when we bring awareness to what we put in our body and consciously choose the foods that will nourish, not only our body, but our mind.
Today on I Love Me the Podcast, we’ll explore the best foods for long-term mental and physical health, and reveal the top three food villains, you want to avoid.

36 What’s Your Bounce Back Time? How To Re-Centre After Your Ego Takes You Out.
There is no such thing as a grey sky. The sky is always blue. Sometimes, however, grey clouds come and cover the blue sky. And this can make us ‘think’ the sky is grey. Well, it’s the same with our minds.
The blue sky can be likened to our True Self; the part of us that is free from the conditioning of our mind. The part of us that sees our brilliance. The part of us that was always designed to
35 Don’t Let Your Ego Get Behind The Wheel.
If you’ve been on this journey with me for a while now, you’ll know we all have a True Self; a guiding light within us - a place of inner wisdom - that’s free from the negative chatter of the mind.
Well, we also have what Sigmund Freud coined back in the 19th century, as an ‘Ego’. Ahhh, the Ego… Our misunderstood travelling companion, often blamed for our inner turmoil.
