Doing Less, Trusting More: How I’m Closing This Year

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/12/21

This episode is a little different. Instead of talking about a concept, a lesson, or a tool, I’m sharing how I’m actually choosing to close this year and why this matters more than rushing into the next one with new goals. This year asked me to slow down, listen to my body, and let go of the pressure to achieve or perform. At the time, it didn’t feel comfortable or impressive. But looking back now, I can see how much shifted beneath the surface and how essential that internal work has been. I...

Alignment, Self-Trust & Leaving the Life You Outgrew...

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/12/04

This is my first ever guest conversation on the podcast, and I couldn’t think of a better person to begin with than my dear friend, yoga teacher and trainer, Jennifer Tang. Jen and I met through the world of yoga and healing, and every time we talk I’m reminded how real, messy, and human the journey of alignment actually is. In this episode, Jen shares what her life looked like as a Statistician & Business Analyst living the “successful” 9–5, while quietly feeling disconnected, anxious, a...

Safety, Softness & The Feminine: What No One Told Us...

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/11/21

In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the most misunderstood concepts in the self-development world: feminine energy. Not the aesthetic or performance or the “slow dancing in Bali” imagery we are sold on Instagram, but the real thing. If you grew up being the strong one, the responsible one, the fixer, the achiever, the emotional adult in the room long before you were ready, then softness probably never felt safe. And when softness doesn’t feel safe, the feminine retreats in the backgro...

The Discipline of Pleasure: How Softness Sustains...

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/11/01

We talk a lot about discipline, consistency, and hard work, but rarely about the energy that makes all of that sustainable. Pleasure isn’t the opposite of discipline. It’s the rhythm that keeps discipline alive. It’s how your body remembers safety, creativity, and trust — the quiet exhale that says, I’m safe now. In this episode, I unpack what it means to live from a regulated, pleasurable body, one that doesn’t need to burn out to prove its worth. You’ll learn why pleasure isn’t about indulg...

At 39: What This Year Taught Me About Big Emotions...

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/09/09

Turning 39 has me reflecting on a year that cracked me open in ways I never saw coming. What I thought would be a season of grounding in Melbourne became a year of eclipses, ancestral grief, shadow work, back pain, and deep lessons in rest, authenticity, and radical self-love. In this episode, I share the biggest truths this past year handed me: ✨ Why grief isn’t just about loss, but how we metabolize change and integrate absence. ✨ How anger, when honored, becomes love’s guardian...

Confusion, Fear and the Truth You’re Avoiding

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/08/15

Confusion and indecision can feel like quicksand — the more you fight them, the deeper you sink. In this episode, I’m breaking down what confusion actually is (and isn’t), the difference between confusion and indecision, and why your nervous system might cling to both. I’ll share how fear, conditioning, and the need to keep others comfortable can keep you circling the same choice for months or even years. You’ll hear personal stories from my own life, including the times I’ve felt completely ...

My Divorce Was My Awakening

The Magic Is In Your Mess ·

2025/07/18

In this episode, I’m sharing one of the most pivotal chapters of my life—the story of my divorce, and how it became the catalyst for my healing, my creativity, and my courage. For years, I stayed. It wasn’t a bad relationship. In fact, it was the safest and the most loving thing I’d ever known. But inside, I was slowly unraveling. I couldn’t hear my voice. I couldn’t feel my joy. I was waiting for a loud, dramatic reason to walk away. But what I really needed was to trust the quiet knowing in...

In this foundational episode, I share the story behind this podcast—why I created it, what “the magic is in your mess” really means to me, and how the hardest experiences of my life became the gateway to healing, creativity, and truth. I open up about my childhood, the loss of my mother, navigating a controlling household, and the trauma I never acknowledged until my thirties. I talk about the deep courage it took to leave a safe marriage, walk away from a stable career, and bet on myself—aga...
