This was a BRILLIANT chat with the circadian rhythm queen Sophie @iamsophiekate about how syncing your daily habits with your body’s natural clock can completely transform your energy, mood, and vitality!
We're two beach + sunshine obsessed gals that love spending lots of time outside, so we dive into practical tips for living in alignment with your circadian rhythm, boosting your natural energy throughout the day (without relying on caffeine), and setting yourself up for deep, restorative sleep.
It was fun to unpack how to optimise all of these things while still maintaining a thriving social life, relationship, work/life balance, and training for a marathon in Hawaii!

This is SUCHHH a hot topic, whether you're the most woo-woo person out there or the most rational ISTJ, we all want to be able to have beautiful experiences in our life intentionally!
We all want to be able to create beautiful experiences and connections, we all want to be able to enjoy miraculous places and friendships and passions and purpose!
So how do we do it, beyond just saying a few affirmations in the mirror and beyond 'raising our vibration'?
How do we become a good collaborator with life, a good friend to Life? How do we build enough self-trust to know that we can?! How do we become potent, powerful creators of our own reality???
Let's dive right in and explore this magic together!

When things come up in conversations often, whether with people in town here, with clients or my gorgeous online community, I always know that means I need to turn it into a podcast episode! And this topic is EXACTLY that.
I discovered when I was 30 that I don't want children, after the end of the long relationship of my 20s and moving back to Melbourne straight into the pandemic. My life COMPLETELY turned upside down, and as a part of this reinvention (or crisis haha) I got to explore these strange feelings I was getting that I was 'running out of time'.
We're still living in a time where it is very much expected that all women want to have children, so I'd love to offer an alternate perspective - that it is TOTALLY fine to not want them! And to know that you don't, and to want to live life exactly the way you want to live it!
I feel very comfortable discussing this with people I meet, and other women my age are often surprised by my clarity and contentedness with my decision, so if this episode helps even one of you feel a little more comfortable living life on your own terms then I'm happy!

The gorgeous Sarah from @consciousearlylearning interviewed me for her podcast The Conscious Early Learning Podcast, and we had the most delightful chat about living a life of vitality and energy when you're a multi-passionate mama!
Sarah was a client of mine around a year ago, and a lot of the work we did together was centred around understanding that putting herself first (prioritising her food, movement and FUN in her life) was actually NOT selfish, it was the missing piece of the puzzle to creating a lot of vitality and energy so that she could feel good and so that she could pour all of that back into her gorgeous family!
This episode is packed with lots of powerful, easy ways to optimise your movement, nutrition and self-care as a busy mama - because you DO deserve it and it is SO important!
And if you know you'd absolutely THRIVE with my daily encouragement and support? Apply for 1:1 coaching here and let's tap into your truly limitless potential together!

MY LOVES it is time for a spicy chat!
The most POTENT portal to your next level?? That juicy next evolution of you, that is able to create exceptional things in her life, that is able to make incredible new connections, who can comfortably take big risks, who has an insane level of self-trust?
The portal is this: EXACTLY the excuse/s that you're using not to do the things you know you should be doing.
'Not fit enough to run', 'not flexible enough for yoga', 'too distracted to meditate', 'just not an athletic person', 'not a risk-taker', 'too shy to start conversations'. THIS IS EXACTLY YOUR PRACTICE!!!!
Your excuse for why you can't do the thing is EXACTLY why you need to do the thing! And if you can't do it now, then the 80 year old version of you is in trouble! If the 35 year old version of you is too stiff for yoga, what sort of existence is the 90 year old version of you going to have?!
I can be so blunt about this because it's a pep talk to my own self haha, so just in case you need this spicy reminder too!
And if you KNOW you're on the verge of a breakthrough and you want powerful support to create your extraordinary life?

This is a beautiful conversation with the delightful Samir, a friend I made in Hiriketiya last year who came back for a month in March.
He has incredible devotion and dedication to his daily movement and meditation practices, and we wanted to explore how to create an 82-year old version of us that is still as full of vitality, energy, passion and function as the present-day version of us.
And if creating an exceptional 82 year old version of us requires daily commitment and devotion to our practices from TODAY (and every day moving forward), how can we actually fall in love with these things so that they're something we LOVE and enjoy instead of an annoying chore? And on top of that, how do we navigate changes in lifestyle, hobbies, living places over those years with the right balance of discipline and flexibility?!
I love these conversations so much, I hope you enjoy them too!
We're in a very interesting time at the moment astrologically (but no matter when you're listening to this, it is ALWAYS RELEVANT!).
The reason that we aren't getting what we want in life is because of ONE THING: we haven't taken the time or effort to get CRYSTAL CLEAR on what it is that we actually want to create!!!
There are always lots of reasons why this happens, it's obviously a completely terrifying thing to do to admit what we deeply, truly desire for our lives because so often what we're currently doing and living looks NOTHING like that! Which means that we're going to have to make some pretty drastic changes and take some risks and to get outside of our warm, fluffy comfort zone.
But if we're not careful, our comfort zone can have us living the next 20 years of an 'ok' life, and that's not what we're here for!
Instead, get sooooooooooo so SO clear on hundreds and hundreds of things you want to experience!!! This way, Life knows EXACTLY what sort of people, places, things, experiences, 'chance encounters' and magic to bring to us so that we can actually create what we want, because WE ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT IT IS!
Come along with me on this stream of consciousness that I've been exploring so much lately - I am obsessed with thinking about the connection between the life force INSIDE of us and the life force of the entire universe outside of us.
OF COURSE they're actually the same thing, the same energy, but as a mental experiment it can help us connect to them more to make the distinction between inside and outside, and it can help a lot in the sense of connecting to our own sense of VITALITY within our body and amplifying that more, and from this place seeing how we are intimately connected to nature, the divine, and the powerful synchronicities of Life.
In fact, we ARE nature. We ARE the divine. We ARE a powerful synchronicity of Life!
Come along for the ride, let me know what you think!
This podcast episode was the gorgeous Shannon Rose interviewing me for the first guest episode on her Substack - THE ALTAR.
We explore what it means to live with reverence for your body, how to deepen our devotion and commitment so that we can ACTUALLY implement the practices that allow us to experience the vitality that so many of us are craving!
We also explore lots of easy ways to create tangible increases in your energy levels and connection to your body - which is ultimately what leads to true EMBODIED vitality.

Sue is a gorgeous friend of mine who also lives in Hiriketiya - a fellow Pisces babe, Rocket yoga teacher and vegan baking extraordinaire!
This was a beautiful chat about creating your "dream life" in a tropical paradise and navigating all of the mess and all of the magic that comes with living abroad - all the way from home renovations with giant monitor lizards falling through your ceiling to creating a gorgeous courtyard space where you can teach your own spicy rocket yoga classes and everyone can enjoy coffee and freshly baked banana bread afterwards! (This is one of my HIGHLIGHTS of Hiri!)
We dive into why it is good to do hard things on purpose, how to use physically challenging yourself as a powerful self-discovery tool and how magical life gets when you get audacious about making your dreams a reality.
Let's go!!
Somehow the first thing we do when we feel 'stuck' or when we're looking for answers is to sit down and try and figure things out.
And of course that normally feels overwhelming and stressful! We end up having the same conversations over and over in our mind, or with our friends, we make endless lists of pros and cons, we agonise over making the right or wrong decision...
Want a much more fun, playful alternative?
LET LIFE THINK FOR YOU!
Here's how!
I had my first taste of this sense of reverence a year ago, the first time I started my Kalaripayattu training in Auroville.
Before that moment, I'd had no real concept of reverence in my life in general, no real sense of awe, of great respect, of great devotion to the things in my daily life
That first trip to Auroville planted the seed of my fascination with reverence, an obsession that has been fuelled more every single time I've been back - and this time it was magnified even more at the Maha Kumbh Melah and in Varanasi.
This episode dives into my exploration of adding more reverence to my daily life - my movement practices, my friendships, my body, my room, my environment, my relationships - and how this has changed my life.
Let's go!
I spend a lot of time thinking about, talking about and brainstorming different ways of radically transforming life and optimising how beautiful our experience of our life can be - for myself, with my clients, with friends, with family, all the time!
And one very interesting thing occurred to me the other day: all of the biggest, most unpredictably magical, wonderful changes in my life have always come from ONE THING.
HAVING INTERESTING CONVERSATIONS WITH INTERESTING PEOPLE!
So if that's the case, then we can reverse engineer this!
We just need to have more interesting conversations with a lot more interesting people.
This episode explores exactly how.
Let's gooo!
Camilla is a GORGEOUS friend I made in Hiriketiya in December, we met through mutual friends while jamming on the beach and we spent a lot of time together before she went back to Italy!
We have an enormous shared passion for latin dance (bachata and salsa) that reignited my own dormant passion for dancing, and we spent a lot of time talking about health, wellness and the traditional 'hospital' environment (she is a doctor).
We both found it ironic that the hospital environment itself is so detrimental to the health of doctors and other staff (not to mention the patients!), and shared our experiences of trying to navigate a more traditional medical job with wanting to have a much more balanced, free and healthy lifestyle in a more optimal environment, how to balance travel and work, how to work with people that actually care about their health, how to balance hobbies and passions and work and play!
I hope you enjoy this fun little chat!
I had a fun moment leaving the kalari pits in Auroville where I said hi to a friend as he rode off on his really noisy dark green Royal Enfield motorbike and I thought to myself 'damn that would be so cool to have a noisy dark green motorbike like that'...
Which set me off on a train of thought of pure curiosity about what that version of me would be like! What would Rae with a badass motorbike be like? How would she walk different? What habits would she have? What different choices would she have made to have that motorbike and be living wherever she is living to have a bike like that?! What would her hobbies be? What new friends would she have?
And THEN that got me thinking that OF COURSE we are always creating that next version of ourselves. So if we know where we want to go, we get to reverse engineer it so easily!
And most importantly, how can we get SOOOO CURIOUS to meet that next version of us, to love them, to know them, to respect them?!
Let's go!
I recorded this episode off the back of the most delightful client call - this gorgeous girl has been completely reinventing her life and we've been uncovering and exploring what her true passions ACTUALLY are!
Not what she feels obliged to do, not what her 9-5 is, not what everyone else is doing, but what actually lights her up more than anything else!
Throughout this process we've discovered that she has an incredible gift that she didn't even realise was a gift, and the more we tap into this, look for evidence of it in her life and amplify it with levity, playfulness and humour, the more absolutely wild opportunities are unfolding in front of her so quickly and in the most beautifully synchronous ways!
There are so many other ways to create magic in this life other than the traditional 'hard work' way we're conditioned into - try using levity instead and see how much fun it is.
Let's dive in!
Janelle is a gorgeous soul I connected with in Hiriketiya in 2023 - a women's empowerment coach with a passion for drinking too much coffee, surfing and living life with an open heart!
We met through a mutual friend and had a coffee together, and then ended up spending almost every minute of the next 2 months of rainy season together before she moved back to New Zealand.
This episode is a beautiful chat about navigating life as a woman in your 30's: how to manage other people's expectations of what your life should look like, how to be open to love again after being hurt, exploring ease/flow versus discipline, and finding the balance between spending reflecting and spending time actually living life and trusting the magic!

I'm having the most magical time in India, exploring so many things and having so many interesting conversations!
This is something I've been thinking about and talking about A LOT:
Why are we so obsessed with everything saving us energy, obsessed with spending less energy and things being more 'convenient'?
Especially when the most beautiful connections, experiences and opportunities in our life often require us to be the best version of ourselves, which naturally requires energy and effort!
So if that's the case, how can we get SO GOOD at making sure that we always have a lot of energy? How can we prioritise our movement, nutrition and self-care practices?
Let's goooo!
What if instead of being on a wild rollercoaster of hormones, mood swings and emotions that somehow take us by surprise every month - we knew EXACTLY what kind of mood to expect to be in exactly which week of the month?!
And what if we could use the energy of that mood to support our life, our productivity, our socialising and work and relationships?!!
Cha has been living in alignment with her cycle for the last 7 years, exploring and refining this process for her own life. In this episode, she shares how to harness the magic of our own hormones and their cycle so that we can work WITH this miraculous system instead of against it!
I learned so much in this episode, I hope you love it too x
