In today’s episode of the podcast, we’re chatting with Robbie Holz, internationally respected healer, medium, and author of three books, Secrets of Aboriginal Healing, Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening and Angels in Waiting. Our interview discusses both her and her husband’s incredible healing journeys utilizing the Aboriginal techniques they learned in the Australian outback, and also other related topics such as how pain can be a powerful catalyst for change, stepping out of victimhood, creating a love mindset, bridging the gap between 3D and 5D reality, releasing your triggers, connecting to higher frequencies for manifestation, and Robbie’s third book, Angels in Waiting, which teaches you how to reach out to your guardian angels and spirit guides.
After receiving a blood transfusion while giving birth to her son in 1983, Robbie contracted Hepatitis C. As a side effect of the experimental treatment she received, she also developed fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, temporary brain damage, and became bedridden for 7 months. At this point she set off on her alternative healing journey, where she met her husband Gary and started using the Aboriginal healing methods to completely recover from all her ailments. She also undertook a spiritual quest into the outback to participate in an all female ceremony with the Aboriginal tribeswomen at their request. After healing herself, Robbie’s passion became helping people worldwide awaken to the powerful healer within themselves.

In today’s Metamorphosis Chat Jacobie introduces the sperm donor for her IVF process, long time friend, and professional actor Steve Rooke. Together they discuss how the universe conspired for them to be in the right place at the right time to make this decision, Steve’s donation process, their open line of communication around how everything is going to work, and what it’ll be like for them if the IVF fails.
Steve is an actor and acting coach with over twenty years in the industry. In that time he’s worked for many major Australian theatre companies, including Queensland Theatre, La Boite, shake & stir, Sydney Theatre Company and Bell Shakespeare.
