  Embracing Your Life Journey 27.02.2026 50мин

  Send us Fan Mail When we are young do we really know that the decisions that we make for our own education despite hurdles will shape our future? Do we really fully acknowledge the blockages, suffering, challenges and life changes that occur to us due to medical pain and also cultural beliefs and hard core coservative mindsets of close family members who mean well but are actually stopping you from achieving your dream of being a teacher? Do we fully know that when we stand up for ourselves a...

  From being the 'Black sheep' of the family to the Spiritual Alchemist' 20.02.2026 32мин

  Send us Fan Mail For decades we have used the term 'The Black Sheep' of the family which stipulates and implies that there is something 'wrong' with us, something 'unjust' about us, we are outcast by society for a variety of reasons. We are taunted and haunted by old ghosts of a life we once knew but can no longer access; whether that be access to our blood family or friends. One way or another; we have been shunned and ostracised by society and thrown out of our familiar culture or home. We ...

  Education is Key! 21.03.2025 20мин

  Red Flags...Why do we ignore them or not spot them? 24.02.2025 30мин

  Send us Fan Mail So many people these days say out loud 'that's a red flag right there, but are you so blind you didn't see it? How could you not see it? It was so damn clear?'. Many of us who have grown up with 'unnormal', 'unloved', 'traumatic' childhoods see the 'average' red flag as a normal consistent daily way of being, largely this is because we know no different. We don't know that this behaviour we have become accustomed to is so irrational, wrong, tormentive and abusive because we h...

  Why it's best being part of a Trade Union now, more than ever. 15.02.2025 35мин

  Send us Fan Mail This was a video podcast which I had recorded previously and felt it was important to have it as a digital podcast. With the Global impact of Covid 19 many people are finding themselves, lost torn, betrayed, confused and angry by the government or the political system around them. Now is the time to join a Trade Union if you aren't a part of one because they are they to help and support you into having a voice. This is my personal story of how the NASUWT in the UK helped me f...

  The Parentified Child 15.02.2025 25мин

  Send us Fan Mail Have you been in a position where you were meant to be the child and instead had to be the 'grown up' instead? Did you have to 'take care' of the 'adult' that is supposed to 'look' after you? Were you the 'grown up' taking care of siblings and doing adult type responsibilities? Did you have to grow up 'quicker' than others due to additional roles that really a child of your age shouldn't be doing? These are some of the issues I raise in today's podcast. In our world we may n...

  Send us Fan Mail How do you overcome obstacles in your life? How do you persevere when life just keeps on giving you more grief? This is my recount of such a challenge I faced in my youth and how it moulded me into the person I am today. I recount on an older video podcast on how I struggled with a physical disability and how it changed my life forever. I was a very active child, always into sports and to one day have that taken away from...

  My first job and how it changed me and the community around me. 29.12.2024 29мин

  Send us Fan Mail This was a video podcast I did several years ago and I felt it was important to have it recorded as an audio podcast. When I was aged 18 years old I had sadly failed my A-Levels and found myself in a very difficult position of having to resit and redo my whole A-Levels again. I had missed years of school on and off due to being in and out of hospital since the age of ten facing some paralysis and various health issues to my left leg withou...

  Podcast Tribute to Khaled Nabhan 16.12.2024 13мин

  Send us Fan Mail This podcast is a tribute to the beautiful soul of Khaled Nabhan. Sadly the world woke up to the news of his tragic death today and we cannot fathom the fact that he has gone. Our world was introduced to the beautiful soul of Khaled Nabhan when we watched him lose the love of his life; his grandchildren, in particular his beautiful granddaughter Reem. We witnessed him grieve over the loss of the beautiful Reem and as time passed we kept hearing his words of loss as he kept s...

  Solitude is bliss. 03.08.2024 21мин

  Send us Fan Mail How many of us sit in silence because we enjoy it, or because we want peace? Do we know how to enjoy the silence around us or do we find it difficult to be at peace within ourselves let alone around us? How do we even use this solitude time to enjoy our own comforts without the attachment to modern technology or the pressures of a job etc around us? Do we even know how to be at peace within and outside ourselves? Many of us in the modern world we live in today find it i...

  Breaking and Healing Generational Stigma and Trauma Cycles. 20.04.2024 30мин

  Send us Fan Mail This podcast comes with a Trigger warning as it may be sensitive for some listeners. When we are born we come with history. History of our generational family members and ancestors. We are somewhat proud of some of their achievements and goals but what we never perhaps discuss is some of the shame and trauma situations they have endured and we in turn inherit. There are trauma situations that they have sadly gone through and not spoken about or kept hidden for numerous gene...

  Dealing with our cyber stalkers 13.04.2024 19мин

  Send us Fan Mail When we cut out a friendship or romantic part of our life the other individual doesn't like the fact that we put boundaries in place and have now 'cast them out'. We often do this to protect our mental health and to preserve our own guards as their energy may no longer resonate with ours or to put it simply; they're toxic. When we stand back and look after ourselves these 'exes' whether it be an ex-friend or more will often cyber stalk us. A lot of the time it is becau...

  Shadow work is a constant evolving process. 12.04.2024 30мин

  Send us Fan Mail What exactly is 'Shadow work'? What does it evolve? How does it help us learn about our core self? How can it help us deal with post-traumatic events in our lives? How can it help us deal with the subconscious facts we often hide from ourselves? How can it help us overall be a better person not for society but for ourselves? What are the steps involved in doing shadow work correctly? These are some of the questions I focus on in this podcast as Shadow work is something I per...

  Podcast Title: Standing on the right side of justice. 25.03.2024 19мин

  Send us Fan Mail With so many catastrophic events occurring in our world, many of us have either chosen to remain silent due to the horrific things we have sadly witnessed or have remained silent out of fear of losing our jobs or being labelled as racist or being on the wrong side of history. But isn't the right side of history meant to be on the side of justice? Doing what's right for example? And how do we know what is actually the right side of justice when there is so much propaganda out ...

  Podcast Title: Identifying the signs of 'breadcrumbing' and how to heal from it. 25.02.2024 31мин

  Send us Fan Mail So many of us in our lives accept very little from the ones we like, adore, appreciate and even 'love'. This is called 'breadcrumbs' or the act of 'breadcrumbing', but what does that actually mean? Breadcrumbing is the act of little attention, little actions and very little acts of 'real love' or interest but as an individual we become hooked or addicted to receiving or accepting so little in return in our relationships or even friendships. So how do we recognise what 'brea...

  Podcast Title: Shredding our Skin 17.02.2024 45мин

  Send us Fan Mail Many of us sometimes have to face old patterns of our behaviour and it's often difficult to shred or remove that 'old skin' that has kept us trapped or kept us in a particular trauma bond or pattern without us realising it. We think we have done the hard work and difficult work of healing and often we do either on a temporary basis or a permanent basis but alas there are still parts of that trauma or pain or pattern that lingers on. In this podcast I delve into this de...

  Podcast Title: Carrying/Holding onto shame that actually isn't ours to carry. 06.01.2024 38мин

  Send us Fan Mail Trigger Warning: This podcast may trigger some individuals as it discusses sensitive topics. Please seek professional help and understand that you are not on your own. There are so many of us that talk about the topic of 'shame' and from culture to culture this very notion or understanding of what shame is will vary. But what happens when that notion of shame stems from unresolved or undisclosed trauma or broken relationships where the other individual has caused us some fo...

  Podcast Title: Energy Vampires 02.01.2024 42мин

  Send us Fan Mail Do you have someone in your life who always seems to be depleting your energy and no matter what you do, you always end up drained, fatigued and at a loss as to why that might be? Perhaps you are in the early stages of recognising the signs but can't quite put your finger on what you're noticing, but clearly, there is something a bit off with this friendship or relationship, but what is it? It could simply be that this individual is an energy vampire and you were not a...

  Podcast: The Impact of Cheating. 26.12.2023 32мин

  Send us Fan Mail When entering a relationship whether it is a marriage or a long-term serious relationship it goes without saying that we make bonds of trust and mutual respect in our relationship journey. But what happens when one of us cheats on the other? Why does the individual cheat? What impact does this have on the other person when they find out? How can they repair the relationship if they try? Or how does the other person move forward, grieve and then heal in order to move forward? ...
