What if I told you that every single problem in your life — big or small — stems from just one thing? And that if you could shift that one thing, your entire reality would begin to transform? Now, I know that sounds like a bold claim. But hear me out…
Because whether you’re struggling with your relationship, your finances, your health, or that endless feeling of ‘I’m not where I should be in life,’ — the root cause of it all… is the same. It’s not the world. It’s not your circumstances. It’s not even that one person who drives you absolutely crazy.
No… It’s a lack of self-love. Yep. That’s it. A lack of self-love. The one thing that causes all our pain, our struggle, and our endless chasing of something ‘more’ …Is simply the absence of love — for ourselves.
So today on I Love Me The Podcast, I want to take you on a journey — into understanding why that is, how it plays out in real life, and most importantly, how you can start to change it. Because once you truly understand this, you’ll never look at your ‘problems’ the same way again.

Today we’re diving into a topic that so many women silently struggle with, but almost no one talks about openly. And honestly? We need to talk about it. We need to take it out of the shadows, out of the Google search tabs at 2am, out of the quiet shame curled up in the back of your mind… and bring it into the light.
So let’s talk about vaginismus. Yep, we’re going there today, so if you have little one’s listening, maybe this is an episode, just for you.
If you’ve ever tried to put something inside your vagina — a tampon, a finger, your partner — and your vagina basically said, “Nope, not today… or any day… bye!” Then this episode on I Love Me the Podcast is going to feel like one big exhale.
Because vaginismus is not your fault. You’re not broken. Your body isn’t betraying you. And you CAN, absolutely, heal. So brew a tea, belly-breathe, unclench your jaw (yes, I see you), and let’s talk about what vaginismus actually is… and what your beautiful body is trying to tell you.

Today, I want to share something that might just change the way you move through emotional pain forever. It’s one of my favourite tools — something I’ve used personally and shared with countless clients over the years — because it’s that powerful.
It’s called The Letting Go Letter.
And no, it’s not just another journaling exercise. It’s a sacred emotional detox — a way to literally set yourself free from the weight of all those unspoken words, unexpressed feelings, and old hurts that quietly clutter your heart.
Because let’s be honest… We all carry things we wish we could release. A fight that never got properly resolved. A relationship that ended badly. A person who hurt us — or maybe even someone we hurt, and never forgave ourselves for.
And while time might dull the sting, those emotions don’t just disappear. They sit quietly in the background — influencing how we feel, how we show up, and even how we connect with others.
But here’s the good news — you can let them go. And this episode on I Love Me The Podcast will show you how.

Today I’d like to have a gentle conversation with you about the emotion of hurt. That quiet ache in your chest when someone hurts you… the sting when trust is broken… the heaviness when you feel unseen or dismissed. It’s tender. It’s real. And it matters.
In this week’s episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we explore the true purpose of hurt — and how, when met with compassion, it can actually guide you back to yourself. For hurt isn’t here to break you down; it’s here to teach, heal, and transform.
Together, we’ll dive into:
Why hurt doesn’t disappear when ignored
How to respond to your pain with gentleness instead of shame
The ways emotional hurt can illuminate exactly where your love needs to grow
Practical tools to feel, process, and release old wounds.
This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt hurt.

Let’s explore something that affects our energy, our mood, our clarity, our emotions — and honestly, our entire life: How we eat. And no — not what we eat. We talk about that everywhere else. Everyone has an opinion — paleo, vegan, gluten free, carnivore, keto, lemon water with unicorn tears…
But today isn't about food rules. Today is about how we eat. Because here’s a truth we rarely hear: We can eat the healthiest food on Earth — but if we eat it in a state of stress, distraction, or rush, our body can’t receive the food’s goodness.
And the opposite is also true. If we bring presence, peace and joy to our meals, even simple food becomes nourishing medicine.
Today’s episode on I Love Me The Podcast is for you, if you feel bloated or tired after eating, you rush meals or eat on autopilot, you want a healthier relationship with food, you want more energy, clarity and calm… Or you’re ready to turn eating into a sacred self-love ritual.

As we move into Late Summer here in the Southern Hemisphere, the energy naturally begins to shift. This is the season that Chinese Medicine places at the very centre of the year — and the centre of you.
In this episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we explore the Spleen, an often-overlooked organ system that governs not just digestion, but your energy, mental clarity, emotional processing, and sense of inner stability.
If you’ve been feeling foggy, tired, heavy after eating, stuck in overthinking loops, or like you’re giving more than you have — this episode will help you understand why.
You’ll learn how the Spleen digests life itself — your thoughts, emotions, and experiences — and how Late Summer invites us to slow down, regroup, and come back to centre.
This is a gentle, grounding episode about reclaiming your energy, softening worry, and learning how to nourish yourself from the inside out — right when your body needs it most.

What if the secret to attracting The One — or bringing your current relationship back to life — wasn’t out there… but already within you?
So many of us spend years searching for love, longing for it, or struggling inside relationships that feel stuck, believing the answer is about finding the 'right' person.But what if, instead of chasing love, we started cultivating it?
In the first episode of Season 5 of I Love Me The Podcast, I’m sharing a simple yet profoundly powerful practice that completely transformed my love life — and the love lives of my clients.
Whether you’re calling in your soulmate, healing a relationship that feels stale or off-track, or deepening your connection with yourself, this episode will change how you see love — and how you see yourself.

Today, we’re unwrapping a topic that feels extra close to my heart this time of year… and no, it’s not about what’s under the tree. It’s all about Christmas Presence—yep, you heard that right… presence, not presents.
Because while gifts wrapped up in shiny paper are lovely, the most powerful gift you can offer your loved ones this holiday season isn’t something you can buy in a shop or pop in a gift bag. It’s you. Your attention. Your presence.
That’s why today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re going to explore why presence is the ultimate gift—especially for our kids and family—and how you can bring more of it into your holiday season… in a really simple, human, and joyful way.
Take a peek at the full episode show notes (and resources I refer to in the show) here:

When was the last time you let yourself dance — like, really dance? Not at a wedding. Not in a class. Just you, barefoot, unfiltered, hips wiggling, shoulders shaking, letting your body speak in its own beautiful language.
In this episode of I Love Me The Podcast, we dive into the wildly underrated magic of movement — how a single song can shift your mood, clear stuck emotion, calm your nervous system, and raise your frequency in minutes.
Because your body wants to heal. It knows how to release, unwind, soften, and realign — and dance is one of its fastest shortcuts. In this episode, we talk about:
How emotions get stored in the body (yes, literally)
Why dancing is one of the quickest ways to release that stuck energy
What happens to your brain chemistry after just one wild, uninhibited song
How dance shifts your vibration and boosts manifestation
How to use movement as medicine, clarity, and emotional detox
Why dance helps you become more magnetic without trying.
This is your permission slip to dance your way back into your body — one song, one beat, one deep exhale at a time. Press play, my love. Your future self is already swaying.

As we move towards the end of the year, I’ve been hearing the same thing from so many women:
“I feel stretched… thin.”“I’m overwhelmed but still saying yes.”“I’m exhausted from holding everyone else together.”
And if any part of you is quietly nodding right now, this week’s episode of I Love Me: The Podcast was made for you. Because today we’re diving straight into a topic that most people misunderstand — BOUNDARIES.
Not the rigid, cold kind people fear. Not the ‘push others away’ kind. Not the ‘I’m difficult’ or ‘I’m selfish’ kind. I’m talking about the deeply loving, deeply spiritual, deeply freeing kind. The kind of boundaries that say:
“My energy matters.”“My wellbeing matters.”“My truth matters.”
The kind that bring you back home to yourself. In Episode 82, I break down:
Why we say “yes” when every cell in our body is screaming “no.”
The childhood beliefs that silently shape our boundaries as adults.
Why boundaries don’t restrict connection — they improve it.
How boundaries help you reclaim your time, your energy, and your peace of mind.
And why they’re not selfish — they are self-respect in action.
I also share:
How emotional boundaries mirror the physical boundaries we use in yoga
The role of anger as your inner protector (yes, really!)
Practical examples you can use immediately
And how to set boundaries with love, as opposed to fear
There’s even a sweet little story about a boundary I recently had to set with my son — one that taught both of us something beautiful. Because boundaries aren’t walls…
Boundaries are containers for love.
They help you show up more fully — not less. They help you stay authentic — not agreeable. They help you stay connected — without disappearing.
