Why a New Chapter Isn’t Enough and why curiosity is often essential for identity changes #19
Send us a text What if this year isn’t a new chapter, but a whole new world? In this episode, I explore why identity shifts require curiosity, and rather than fixing habits or setting resolutions, we need awareness on what character we are actually currently playing and which character we want to be. It will encourage you to consider the patterns you’ve outgrown, and how beginning the year with a reflective start can give you that space to recognise where change is possible. Questions in the ...

The Family Archetypes which rock up at the Christmas Dinner Table: Festivities & familiar roles #18
Send us a text A festive edition, looking at the archetypes that come out to play around the family table at Christmas: the peacemaker, the rebel, the caretaker, the critic, and everything in between. In this episode, I talk about how our dominant roles can really show up in their extremes when expectations run high, and how to stay grounded and clear when emotions, traditions, and family dynamics collide.

You Don’t Have to Play the Part: Refusing the Role through Archetypes, Power & Choice #17
Send us a text In this episode, I go deeper into what happens when a certain archetype shows up in our life and quietly tries to dictate how we should respond. Maybe it’s control, pressure, expectation, or a dynamic that wants you to stay small, agreeable, or predictable. We explore how these moments don’t actually require you to play the role you’re being handed and how choosing a different archetypal response, like the Explorer or the Free Spirit, can shift the entire dyna...

The Archetype & Character Traits We Didn't Expect To See In Another And How We Can Work With That #16
Send us a text What happens when someone shows up in a way we never expected — and suddenly the version of them we’ve carried in our head doesn’t quite fit anymore? In this episode, we’re talking about the surprise archetype: the side of a person (or even ourselves) that catches us completely off-guard. You’ll hear why our brains struggle to make sense of these moments, why it can feel uncomfortable when someone breaks the “role” we’ve placed them in, and how our own shadowy patterns can snea...

The Medicine of the Jester Archetype: Laughter & Lightness #15
Send us a text How many of you have a friend who can snap you straight out of a state of mind? You’re in a mood… overthinking life… or just not feeling yourself, and then they appear. I do! Actually, I have two. They’re the Timons to my Pumbaa — or the Pumbaas to my Timon. I honestly don’t know which way round it is. Part of me feels like I’m meerkat energy because I’m nosey… but I also have the appetite of a hog, so honestly, the jury is still out. 😂 Anyway — the point. The...

When Self Development and Archetypes Wake Up The Villains #14
Send us a text Ever noticed how just when life starts flowing and you’re feeling more confident than ever, someone shows up to test it? Right on cue, a “villain” steps in or a challenge appears. And suddenly your growth doesn’t feel as effortless as it did five minutes ago. In this episode, I unpack why stepping into a new identity or archetype can activate shadows in other people and why those shadows aren’t here to sabotage you, but to strengthen your character and help you evolve. Th...

The Mermaid Effect: Splashing Into Visibility and being seen #13
Send us a text In this episode, we’re talking about a very sparkly archetype — one of my favourites to explore and embody: The Mermaid, a playful branch of the Lover archetype. She’s magnetic, confident, curious, and not afraid to be seen. This episode is an invitation to tap into that part of you — the one that wants to feel desirable, expressive, and unapologetically visible. We’re exploring what shifts when we stop blending into the background and start backing ourselves. Not in a dr...

From Princess to Queen and from Prince to King: The Power of Patience & the 5-Year Rule #12
Send us a text How many of us want things instantly? It's hard not to when we live in a world where we can order dinner, book a holiday, and find a date in just a few taps. A big downside to this? When your business, your relationship, or your health goal doesn’t take off immediately or slows down, your first instinct is to question it… or quit. This episode is about the patience of the Ruler archetype within us. The part of us that is grounded in confidence, is willing to play th...

Beautiful Contradictions or Split personalities? When opposite archetypes meet in the same person #11
Send us a text We all carry split archetypes within us – those contrasts that make us human. Think of the stay-at-home mum who’s secretly a rebel, or the wellness guru who preaches about slow living while hustling at every networking event. These contradictions aren’t fake – they’re simply different sides of the same person. In this episode, we dive into why these splits show up, how they shape our relationships, and what it feels like to be on the receiving end of someone who’s thoughtful on...

The Alchemy of Action: Creating Routines & Rituals with the Magician Archetype #10
Send us a text From fog to flow - The Ritual Cure! In this episode, I'm talking about the power of routine and ritual—not as something restrictive, but as the structures which help us to function, focus, and thrive. Instead of framing it through the Ruler archetype (the one who loves order) I’ve explored it through the Magician—the archetype that prioritises connection to self and protects their energy, time, and attention. In caring for these things, we gain clarity, direction, a...

The cost and calling of The Truth Teller #9
Send us a text In this episode, I'm addressing the elephant in the room! OR should I say I'm talking about the person who does address the elephant in the room - THE TRUTH TELLER. The one who just has to speak up, even if it makes things awkward, weird, or people don’t want to hear it. It’s about those of us who find the courage to say exactly what’s on our mind, whilst trying out best to balance this, with speaking from the heart. And that my friends, is not an easy task! We’re l...

The Voice of the Inner Critic vs The Inner Sage
Send us a text In this episode, I explore the powerful dynamic between the inner critic and the inner sage — those two voices within us that shape how we see ourselves and the world. I realised how much headspace I give to the critic: the voice of doubt, pressure, and self-judgment. And yet, there’s another voice — quieter, but wiser — that I don't make quite as much time for - The inner sage. Why? Because it doesn't shout to be heard. It waits for you to tune in. This is a reflection on reco...

The benefits of naming your emotions and archetypes #7
Send us a text After a long break (sorry you guys) I'm back and I'm talking about the freedom we can experience when we identify, name and label our emotions and archetypes. There's a power in putting words or stories to how we feel, or what we're experiencing, and in being able to articulate this, we can understand ourselves better, respond with compassion, and stop battling against who we are. This is an episode about self-awareness without self-judgement, and finding more ease in the way w...
