I Love Me with Tamra Mercieca

Today we’re talking about Getting Naked. And no — not that kind of naked.  Although honestly?  Emotional nakedness is far more confronting than physical nakedness anyway.
 
This episode has been a long time coming. Because so many of you are in my world — listening to this podcast, reading things I write, maybe doing one or more of my programs — but I’ve never actually sat down and said:
 
Here’s why I created The Getting Naked School.
Here’s how it works.
And here’s who it’s really for.
 
And I want to say this upfront: The entire reason I built this school was to help you not need me.
 
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, I’m sharing my personal experience with seeking help, and why I wanted to create teachings and programs that help you become self-sufficient in your own healing journey.
 
Because when you have tools and practices, combined with an inner belief system of confidence and trust, navigating life becomes a wondrous experience where you feel supported, fulfilled and totally alive.

About me…
 
Hi, I’m Tamra Mercieca, Women’s Mental & Pelvic Health Therapist, and host of I Love Me The Podcast. For 20+ years I’ve been teaching people worldwide how to heal depression and anxiety naturally, strengthen pelvic health, and cultivate radical self-love.
 
In 2011, I founded Getting Naked, an online school offering resources and programs that help people strip away limiting beliefs and childhood conditioning so they can feel confident, connected, free in their bodies and able to love and accept themselves unconditionally.
 
Alongside being a mum, wife, tea lover, and drummer, I’m qualified in more than a dozen holistic healing modalities. I’ve written two books, been published worldwide (print, TV, radio, etc), and often share my passion for self-love, mental health and pelvic wellbeing at yoga and spirituality festivals.
 
My own journey began when I learned how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety without medication. From that, I created a ten-session self-love therapy program that now helps others do the same.
 
On the podcast, I share personal stories, tools and science-backed down-to-earth practices for emotional healing, women’s health, and living with more joy and freedom. May you feel more whole and more complete, by simply tuning in!

If there’s one health issue I hear about again and again from women, it’s fibroids.  And it’s often paired with confusion, fear, or pressure to make quick decisions.
 
So if you’ve been diagnosed with fibroids, if you’ve been told ‘just keep an eye on them’, or worse—if you’ve been made to feel afraid, powerless, or rushed into surgery… Take a deep breath with me right now.
 
Because this conversation isn’t about fear. It’s about understanding. It’s about choice. And it’s about remembering that your body—especially your uterus—is wise.
 
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, I want to gently walk you through:
What fibroids actually are
Why they’re so common
How they can affect your body, your fertility, and your emotional wellbeing
And most importantly, how healing fibroids can happen naturally—without invasive procedures or taking your body apart.
 
By the end of this episode, my hope is that you’ll feel empowered, seen, and ready to take the next steps in caring for your body and your precious womb.

Have you ever heard of vaginal steaming… and thought… Wait… women are doing WHAT now? Or maybe you’ve heard it called yoni steaming, womb steaming, V-steaming — and you’ve felt curious… but also a little unsure.
 
Today on I Love Me The Podcast I want to lovingly demystify this ancient women’s practice, share why it’s making such a powerful comeback, and introduce you to Pelvic Steam Therapy — a holistic approach I’ve created that takes vaginal steaming far beyond the physical… into emotional, energetic and subconscious healing.
 
If you’ve ever struggled with painful periods, hormonal imbalance, fertility challenges, pelvic pain, gynaecological issues or difficulty through the peri menopause years — or if you simply want to feel more at home in your body — this episode is for you.

Have you ever noticed that sometimes, even when life seems fine, something inside you still feels tense, guarded, or off? Maybe you feel a little anxious, or assume you’re just ‘overthinking’ things. That’s your body whispering the truth:  It doesn’t feel safe.
 
When we don’t feel safe, it isn’t just a mental thing. It lives in our bodies. It lives in the way we hold our pelvis, the tightness in our hips, the subtle tension in our womb, the shallow breath that keeps us from fully relaxing. It shapes how we move, how we speak, and how we show up in our lives.
 
That’s why today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re talking about safety. What it really means to feel safe inside… How not feeling safe shows up in your body and your behaviour… And most importantly — how to rebuild that safety, from the inside out.

Birthing used to be one of my biggest fears. For most of my life, I carried the same stories many women do — that birth is dangerous, traumatic, painful, and something our bodies can’t truly handle without intervention. And when I started feeling the call to conceive, I knew I had to face that fear head on.
 
That journey led me to someone very special — Suraj Bryson — a woman who has spent more than 40 years teaching meditation, healing, and empowering women to reconnect with the wisdom of their bodies.
 
So with Birth Trauma Awareness Week approaching, I decided to share a deeply moving conversation I had with Suraj, here in I Love Me The Podcast.
 
In this hour-long chat, we explore:
✨ Why giving birth can be one of the most powerful initiations in a woman’s life✨ How fear and cultural conditioning around pregnancy and birth can disconnect women from their natural wisdom✨ The ways our childhood experiences and emotional wounds can influence our pregnancy and birthing journeys✨ The often-unspoken pleasure and sensuality available to women during birth✨ A woman’s innate capacity for natural, intervention-free birthing when she feels safe and supported✨ How challenging relationships with our mothers can become powerful opportunities for healing and growth✨ The importance of vulnerability, surrender, and trusting the intelligence of the body✨ And why body love is such an essential foundation for empowered womanhood.
 
Whether you’re planning to have a child, healing from a previous birth experience, or simply feeling the call to reconnect with your feminine power, this timeless conversation will open your heart and remind you of what’s possible when women feel safe in their bodies again.

If you’ve ever felt that tug in your chest at this time of year — the craving for warmth, quiet, softness, or a return to yourself — you’re already responding to the power of Winter Solstice. Most people rush through June (or December if you’re in the Northern Hemisphere) thinking it’s ‘just cold’, but it’s not.
 
Winter Solstice is one of the most ancient and meaningful turning points on Earth’s calendar, and if you’ve ever wondered why humans from every culture, in every era, stopped everything to celebrate one single night…  Well… today you’ll find out.
 
Because Winter Solstice isn’t only the darkest and most Yin day of the year — it’s a powerful reset. A moment where the sun literally stops moving in the sky. A pause so profound that ancient people believed time stood still.  And that stillness?  It matters for us just as much today as it did thousands of years ago.
 
So if you’ve been feeling tired, stretched thin, or like you could use a good soul-level exhale… This episode on I Love Me The Podcast,  is your permission slip to step into the magic of Yule.

Have you ever gazed at a glass of water and wondered… What if this isn’t just a glass of H₂O — but a reflection of everything I feel inside? And what if the way I treat myself… The words I say to myself… The beliefs I carry about who I am… Actually show up in the very cells of my body?
 
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re diving into the work of Japanese researcher Dr. Masaru Emoto and his water crystal experiments. But then, we’re going deeper. Much deeper. Into how this visual science offers us a mirror — pointing straight to our relationship with ourselves.
 
Because water doesn’t just reflect. It responds. And you — around 70% water, by the way — are soaking in your own thoughts all day long. So if you’re ready to see your self-love journey in a whole new light, grab yourself a glass of water, and let’s go.

Imagine walking through life with a label stuck to your forehead. It might say ‘depressed’, ‘anxious’, ‘lazy’, ‘introvert’, ‘too much’, or ‘not enough’.
 
Everywhere you go, people see it. And slowly—quietly—you start to believe it. That label doesn’t just describe you. It begins to define you.
 
Today on I Love Me The Podcast, we’re exploring what it would mean to lose the labels we’ve placed on ourselves.  Not just diagnoses like depression or ADHD, but all the identities, behaviours, and stories that have slowly boxed us in over time.
 
Because here’s the truth: You are not your label. And you never were.
 
So… let’s explore why labels can be both helpful and harmful, how to break free of them, and real-life examples of people—including myself—who chose to let go and reclaim their lives.

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.

About me…
 
Hi, I’m Tamra Mercieca, a Self-Love Therapist, Women’s Pelvic Health Guide, and host of I Love Me The Podcast. For 20+ years I’ve been teaching people worldwide how to heal depression and anxiety naturally, strengthen pelvic health, and cultivate radical self-love.
 
In 2011, I founded Getting Naked, an online school offering resources and programs that help people strip away limiting beliefs and childhood conditioning so they can feel confident, connected, free in their bodies and able to love and accept themselves unconditionally.
 
Alongside being a mum, wife, tea lover, and drummer, I’m qualified in more than a dozen holistic healing modalities. I’ve written two books, been published worldwide (print, TV, radio, etc), and often share my passion for self-love, mental health and pelvic wellbeing at yoga and spirituality festivals.
 
My own journey began when I learned how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety without medication. From that, I created a ten-session self-love therapy program that now helps others do the same.
 
On the podcast, I share personal stories, tools and science-backed down-to-earth practices for emotional healing, women’s health, and living with more joy and freedom. May you feel more whole and more complete, by simply tuning in!

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.
