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.

I’ve created something special to support you if anything I discuss in this episode feels familiar – it’s called: "Why You Feel Lost Even When Your Life Looks Good on the Outside"
It’s a gentle reflection guide with simple practices to help you feel more like you again.
(Jump to 6 minutes if you just want to join for the full guided practice with me)
healing, manifesting, self-discovery, midlife, anxiety, grounding practices, self-care, personal growth, emotional well-being, mindfulness
In this first of 4 shorter summer episodes, I’m sharing something that’s come up a lot in conversations and messages from many of you – that feeling of being a bit lost, disconnected or just done with the pace and pressure of life.
If you're a midlife woman, possibly in peri or post menopause , or you're noticing emotional ups and downs that seem to come from nowhere, you’re not alone. I’ve been there too – wondering “Is this it?”, and feeling like I’d lost sight of who I really am underneath the roles I’ve been playing for years.
This episode is all about making space for yourself, even if just for a few minutes. I guide you through a simple grounding practice that helps me when I’m feeling overwhelmed, reactive or just not quite in my body. It’s something you can do anywhere, and it doesn’t take long – but it can really shift how you feel and calm your nervous system.
Whether you're someone who struggles with anxiety, overstimulation, overwhelm, emotional eating or just needs a pause in the day, this might be something worth trying, if it feels right for you.
In this episode, I talk about:
