In this episode of The Healing Space, I’m joined by the radiant and wise Hollie Azzopardi - intuitive guide, author, ceremonial cacao facilitator, and all-round good human - for a rich and expansive conversation on the emotional, energetic, and spiritual initiations that life can bring. Especially the ones that shake us to our core and call us into deeper versions of ourselves.
We dive deep into:
✨ Matrescence and how identity shifts through major life transitions
✨ The experience of energetic burnout — what it looks like and how to begin restoring your system
✨ Reconnecting with your heart and intuition when life feels overwhelming
✨ The sacred medicine of cacao and why it’s more than just a trendy drink
✨ What it means to hold yourself through grief, comparison, and not-knowing
We also speak openly about the pressure so many women feel to “do it right,” to be in control, to tick all the boxes, and how the journey of becoming a mother (in any form) is often one of deep surrender, mystery, and healing.
You'll also hear about Hollie’s role as a guest facilitator in my 8-week group program, Fertile Ground, where she’ll be holding a powerful cacao ceremony to help women reconnect with their hearts, soften their nervous systems, and ground deeply into the wisdom of their own bodies.
If you're navigating a fertility journey, in the thick of motherhood, or simply yearning to come home to yourself - don't miss this powerful conversation.

This week on the podcast I welcome the wonderful Gabi Moran from Mother Natures Alchemist into The Healing Space with me. 💗

This session was the perfect remedy for Gabi, it helped strengthen her boundaries, come home to her self - so if you’re in need of a similar tune-up, you’ll enjoy this one!

Jayne is a Self-Worth Coach and Spiral Practitioner - her mission is to empower women to recognise their own value and worth, just as they are, without having to fit themselves into a box, do more or hustler harder.
In this session, we focused on so many things! From a block Jayne felt to writing her book, to releasing guilt around not working hard enough and feeling safe to leave social media - so much ground was covered and so many shifts occurred! This was such a fun session to record, and I can’t wait to hear what you think.
You’ll find this session helpful if: You have a big project you’re feeling fearful around. You’ve been feeling guilty. You’re craving a more open-hearted life.

For something a little different, this week I’m sharing the replay of my Open Circle that I held on Monday night, and I think you’re really going to enjoy it!
This is a beautiful session, one that you can sit in full (think meditation, journaling, tapping) and experience a release from anything that is weighing you down at the moment.
One of my favourite things to do is to create spaces for potent transformation, and the tapping circles I run in Connect + Clear, The Membership are no exception. This is an invitation for you to sit in circle with me, to experience 60 minutes of EFT firsthand and feel the shift take place.
This is your chance to bring whatever you feel depleted & disappointed about to the table.
To clear the fogginess, the fear, the perceived failures;
And release it so you can feel:
Relaxed.
Lighter.
Calm.
Confident.
Aligned.
At peace.
Joyful.
All of the good stuff!

This week I welcome the delightful Miranda Partridge into The Healing Space with me for a session. 💫
Miranda is The Body Positive Nutritionist, she has an amazing holistic approach to food and works with babes who are done with diets ready to find out what actually works for their unique bodies. You can follow Miranda, and leanr more about her amazing work over on her instagram, @mirandaswellness
In this session, we begin with the resistance Miranda was feeling to exercise, sure she had some run of the mill excuses that I’m sure you’ll find relatable, but as we tapped together a few more layers of the story was revealed to fully heal and release an old pattern. We also worked on a fear Miranda had around using her voice, to share her journey and a deep fear of being misunderstood but throughout the session we soothed and cleared her apprehension so that she felt more confident, aligned and lighter.
You'll find this session helpful if: You can’t seem to find a routine that sticks. You resist exercising, and make up plenty of excuses. You feel apprehensive about sharing or voicing something important to you.

This week on the podcast I welcome the amazing Bella Nichol into The Healing Space with me! ✨
Bella has been on a real journey the past 12 months - she tested positive to the Huntingtons Disease gene, which has changed her direction and put her on a journey of healing and change. She is raising awareness on Huntingtons and sharing her journey via @positively_bel, so be sure to check out her content to learn more about this disease, and the challenges gene-positive people face. Bella has been apart of Connect + Clear, The Membership for over a year now so EFT has played an important part for her in releasing grief, heaviness and stress that naturally has weighed her down.
In this session we start with where Bella is at - feeling burnt-out and depleted following an exhausting round of IVF, coupled with her final few weeks of University. This was manifesting not just as tiredness, but procrastination and resistance to finishing her last couple of assignments.
This is a beautiful session, moving from heaviness to a place of self-compassion and lightness.
You’ll find this session helpful if: You feel depleted, heavy and tired. You’ve been procrastinating. You need to start practising more compassion and kindness towards yourself.

This week on the podcast I welcome the beautiful Shorina Page into The Healing Space with me!
Shorina is a qualified Counsellor who specialises in Mental Health support via her practise Mindful Soul Collective, and she also runs her own lingerie business, Bras by S. Shorina is passionate about empowering people, and helping them overcome feelings of unworthiness, fear and self-sabotage - something that really comes throughout all of her work!
In this session, we focused on some money blocks Shorina had been experiencing - no matter what she tried in her businesses each month, there was a figure she just couldn’t seem to break through. If one business had some uplift, the other would somehow drop down. It felt like there was a ceiling, holding her back from experiencing the financial abundance she’d been working towards. And this session - we broke through it.
You’ll find this session helpful if: You feel all blocked up when it comes to money. You want to break through your own income ceiling. You want to feel capable of holding more.
I can’t wait to hear what you think about this one!

This week I welcome the amazing Cassie Mendoza-Jones into The Healing Space with me. 💞
Cassie is a business coach & kinesiologist (amongst other things!). She works with women who are driven, devoted and honouring their dreams, and who want to become more powerfully aligned to their bigger vision. She’s also a Mum of two beautiful little humans! Cassie is brilliant at what she does, and although this episode isn’t about business at all- if you’re seeking a business coach who can help you deepen your belief in yourself, I can’t recommend Cassie enough!
All of that aside, this session was an excellent reminder for how EFT can quickly and effectively release phobias that may have been plaguing you for years. It can manifest in many different ways, maybe you find yourself stuck in a mental loop, or you're familiar with that surge of anxiety that flares up when you're triggered or confronted by your fear head on. A phobia lingers because usually there is an underlying fear or story at the root of your anxiety, waiting to be addressed and cleared - and EFT helps to netralise and disarm the phobia.
So, in this session, we dive deep on a fear Cassie had around getting sick in the middle of the night following some difficult experiences she’d had with her babies. We also worked on some resistance Cassie was feeling around moving into their new home and some anxiety she had about things not going to plan.
You’ll find this session helpful if: You have a phobia you can’t seem to shake. You feel anxious about experiencing change. You’re feeling ready to make peace with what is.

This week on the podcast I welcome the lovely Ash Ryan from Evolve Virtual Support into The Healing Space with me.
Ash made the big leap way back in 2020, leaving her corporate career to start her own business as an Online Business Manager, supporting female entrepreneurs in their growth & strategy. Like for many of us, Ash has found that being in biz has brought up all kind of blocks, beliefs and everything in between, and this is something we really explore in this session getting righ to the root of why the expectations of others have been weighing her down. Ash had burnt herself out by trying to be all things to all people, neglecting her own self-care and growth - we go deep on this in this episode, and I think you'll enjoy listening to the shift as it happens!
You'll find this session helpful if: You're a people-pleaser. You need some boundaries ASAP. You'd like to be comfortable with saying "no".
If you'd like to connect with Ash, you can find her via Instagram @evolve_virtualsupport

This week I welcome the wonderful Hollie Azzopardi into The Healing Space with me for a session. If you don't know Hollie, you should! She is a leading Mind, Body & Soul mentor, intuitive, model, speaker and author - her energy is infectious, her work is powerful and she has a real knack for sharing exactly what you need to hear.
In this session, we begin with the overwhelm Hollie was feeling at this particular time, just before her book launch and her little girls first birthday as she moves out of a difficult year. At the start of the session, so many moving parts were weighing on her, but throughout our time together we soothed and cleared the underlying stress, anxiety and shame, so that Hollie could step into her next chapter feeling excited, beautiful and magnetic.
You'll find this session helpful if: You experience overwhelm, doubt or lack confidence in yourself, and are seeking some lightness.
