Welcome to 'Masterpiece & Mess’ where we explore unedited stories and journeys of growth, greater self-expression, and better well+being.
Our stories can often be painful, and less than perfect, and yet that is where the true power of storytelling lies; in the ‘folly & bewilderment’ to quote Herman Hesse. These episodes are conversations to help us step into our vulnerability instead of being guarded or defended, hopefully creating a space for more honesty, more compassion, and a mirror in which to view ourselves as the masterpieces in the making that we all are, despite our ‘messiness’.
Jacqueline is a trauma informed therapist, trained in Spinal Energetics, Somatic inquiry, Breath, Hypnotherapy, Psychotherapy & Polynesian Bodywork. In this episode she shares her wealth of knowledge around honouring the wisdom of our bodies and cycles.

SIMON CROWE - making time for dreaming and visioning
What a beautiful conversation with Simon Crowe – Master Coach.
In this episode, Simon describes the daily practice of dreaming or visioning to energetically embody our higher and best selves, before we take action, but also speaks beautifully on how we can accept, and embrace the natural ebb & flow of life during the times when we have to hunker down, or as Simon poetically describes it as times of ‘Wintering’ before we are ready to enter a time of Spring (change) again.
I also loved how Simon describes how one can shift fear based self-conscious thinking by turning our focus onto someone else.
I hope you get as much from this conversation with Simon Crowe as I did. Please remember to share this episode with friends and loved ones and go ahead and post any comments you may have – I would love to hear from you. Also, please consider rating & reviewing this podcast. Thank you for listening.
