This is NOT a podcast about cancer. It’s a reminder to celebrate life and not to wait until a big diagnosis comes along to live your best life.
On this podcast we talk about healing, manifesting and living your best life. We cover all forms of wellness, natural health and nervous system regulation. We humans have the ability to lead magnificent, enriched and fulfilling lives of our dreams but we need to create a safe environment in our bodies for these manifestations to become reality
Many of our guests have gone through and survived some form of disease, adversity or near death experience and have used that wake up call to change for the better and create an incredible life of purpose. These stories are absolutely awe inspiring and will open you up to what is possible if you make some simple changes to your daily life.
We have incredible experts sharing their vast knowledge on all aspects of wellness, disease prevention, healing modalities, manifestation, spirituality and mental health optimisation.
Meet your host: Alex (La to her friends and family) After receiving a completely unexpected cancer diagnosis in 2017 my world caved in. But my journey through treatment and recovery also forced me to recognise many uncomfortable truths about my life. I’d neglected myself. I’d pushed down trauma and become a world class people pleaser in order to feel safe. Getting ill made me realise I had to stop sweating the small stuff and make lasting changes for the better. Quite literally, cancer cured me from all that crap, and in its own strange way, proved to be the catalyst that’s led me to an infinitely happier life.
This podcast is my way of sharing all the learning so that YOU don't have to get cancer to realise just how great your life can be. Remember - YOU hold all the cards to achieve the life of your dreams.

In this fun yet emotional and empowering episode I'm joined by the wonderful Kristen Carder - renowned ADHD coach, educator and host of the top-rated I Have ADHD podcast. Together, we explore the emotional realities of living with ADHD, rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), and the often overwhelming experience of parenting with ADHD.
If you've ever asked yourself, “Why do I take things so personally?” or “Why is parenting so hard for me?”, this episode is a must-listen.
Kristen shares her journey of being diagnosed with ADHD at age 21, and how that early diagnosis, along with the right support, changed the trajectory of her life. Whilst I open up about my late ADHD diagnosis in my 50s and how it brought clarity and healing after years of self-doubt and masking.
Whether you're navigating adult ADHD, supporting a loved one with neurodivergence, or parenting a child with ADHD, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, supported and empowered.
