The Lion's Gate Portal 2026 is here and if you've been seeing people talk about the 888 portal, manifestation, or Leo season, this episode is your beginners guide to this years Lion's Gate Portal.

When is Lion's Gate Portal 2026? 29 July to 12 August 2026.

In this episode, I'm breaking down the history behind the Lion's Gate Portal, why August 8 is considered one of the most powerful manifestation days of 2026, and why 2026 is an extra significant 888 year in numerology. Whether you're into spirituality, manifestation, or simply love using seasonal moments to reset your goals, you'll learn how to harness this energy to create meaningful change.

I'll walk you through my simple manifestation process:

• Reflect on where you're dimming your light.
• Get crystal clear on what you truly want.
• Embody the version of yourself who already has it.
• Let go of the "how" and trust the process.

I also share the story of how I used these exact principles to manifest my podcast reaching 1,000 downloads, despite being well behind my goal only days earlier.

If you're ready to stop playing small, overcome the fear of being judged, and step fully into your next chapter, this episode is your new best friend.

Journal prompting questions from this episode:

• Am I dimming my own light?
• Where am I choosing comfort over growth?
• What am I pretending doesn't matter, even though it does?
• Where am I waiting for permission instead of taking action?
• What would I do if I wasn't worried about being judged?

Lion's Gate is about acknowledging all these things and choosing courage over comfort. Let's make this Lion's Gate Portal your most powerful one yet!

Failure is something we've all experienced... but what if it isn't actually failure at all?

In this episode, I'm sharing the story of my biggest failure and why I believe failure is often the universe redirecting us towards something even better plus why I'd always choose trying over spending a life wondering "what if?".

I'll also share the incredible story of Oprah being "demoted" early in her career, and how what looked like a career ending setback became the very thing that led to her extraordinary success.

If you've recently failed, you're scared to start something new, I hope this episode gives you the courage to back yourself anyway.

In this episode, we chat about:

• Why failure isn't always a sign to stop
• The mindset shift that completely changed how I view setbacks
• What closing my clothing business taught me about success
• Why "what if?" is often scarier than failing
• The power of influencers versus paid advertising for small businesses
• Oprah's career "failure" that changed her life forever
• Tow to forgive yourself, let go of guilt, and keep moving forward

Remember: sometimes your biggest setback is simply setting you up for the life you're actually meant to live.

If this episode resonated with you, I'd love if you followed the podcast, left a review, or shared it with someone who needs the reminder that failure doesn't define them it can be the beginning of something even better.

• What successful people do before anyone notices them.
• How nature reminds us that good things take time.
• Why becoming the person who achieves the goal is just as important as reaching it.
• A mindset shift that will help you stop rushing your journey and start embracing your evolution.

Whether you're building a business, growing a podcast, trying to lose weight, changing careers or working towards any big goal, this episode is your reminder to keep showing up. Your hard work isn't going unnoticed you might simply be evolving into the person who's ready for the success that's coming.

If you've been feeling like this year hasn't quite gone to plan, this episode is your reminder that you don't need to wait for January to start over. You can reset your goals at any time.

In this episode, I'm sharing how I'm "locking in" for the next six months and the simple mindset shifts that are helping me make real progress without feeling overwhelmed. I talk about why it's so important to be kind to yourself, how to set goals (or intentions) across every area of your life, and why creating small daily habits is the secret to achieving big results.

My top 5 tips from this episode:

1. Be kind to yourself and remember you can reset your goals at any time.
2. Set goals or intentions in every area of your life, not just your career or fitness.
3. Break big goals down into small daily habits you can consistently stick to.
4. Become the person who has already achieved your goal by adopting their habits today.
5. Make success easier by habit stacking and removing friction from your daily routines (from Atomic Habits by James Clear).

If you're ready for a mid year reset, want practical goal-setting tips that actually stick, or need a little motivation to make the most of the next six months, this episode is for you.

In this episode I cover:

• How to reset your goals at any time of the year

• How to break big goals into simple daily actions
• Habit stacking and making success easier
• My personal six-month "lock in" plan

The next six months are going to pass whether you take action or not. This is your sign to start today, back yourself, and make shit happen.

In this episode of Mind Your Own Beeswax, I'm breaking down the book: The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. If you've ever struggled with overthinking, anxiety, negative self talk or feeling trapped by your emotions, this episode is for you.

I'm sharing my biggest takeaways from the book in my own words, so you can get the "lazy girl" version without having to read the whole thing (although I highly recommend you do!).

We dive into the powerful concept of your "inner roommate" that constant voice in your head that's always analysing, worrying and replaying conversations. I explain how learning to observe your thoughts instead of becoming them can completely change the way you experience stress, anxiety and everyday life.

I also explore the book's teachings around keeping your energy open, allowing emotions to move through your body instead of getting stuck, and why resisting difficult feelings often gives them more power.

Whether you're on a personal growth journey, love self development books, enjoy spirituality, or simply want practical ways to quiet your mind and live with more peace, this episode is packed with insights that could genuinely change the way you think.

In this episode you'll learn:

• Why you're not the voice inside your head.
• How to stop overthinking and observe your thoughts.
• A simple mindset shift for managing anxiety and difficult emotions.
• The importance of keeping your energy open.
• Why trying to control every outcome may be holding you back.
• My biggest lessons from The Untethered Soul and how I'm applying them to my own life.

If you're searching for a summary of The Untethered Soul, practical mindset tips, spiritual growth, emotional healing, or ways to overcome overthinking, this episode is the perfect place to start.

In this episode, I'm sharing one of the most powerful mindset lessons I've ever come across, inspired by The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. If you've ever felt stuck in the same patterns, triggered by the same situations, or found yourself building your life around avoiding discomfort, this episode is for you.

I dive into the "thorn" story from The Untethered Soul a simple but profound metaphor that perfectly explains why inner work is so important. We often spend years creating strategies, excuses, and coping mechanisms to avoid pain, when the real solution is to face the root cause head on. The more we protect the thorn, the more it shapes our decisions, relationships, confidence, and ultimately, our lives.

This episode is a reminder that the answers you're searching for aren't outside of you. They're within you. The freedom, confidence, and peace you're craving often sit on the other side of doing the hard work and addressing what's really holding you back.

So I have a question for you: what thorn are you protecting right now? And what would your life look like if you finally removed it?

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why avoiding discomfort can quietly control your life
• The powerful lesson behind The Untethered Soul
• How unresolved triggers shape your behaviours and decisions
• My personal journey overcoming my own thorn
• Why mindset work is the key to lasting transformation
• Practical ways to identify and address the root cause of your struggles
• How to create more freedom, confidence, and joy in your life

While I'm definitely not someone who follows every traditional Feng Shui rule, I've discovered some simple practices that have completely changed the way I think about my home.

In this episode, I'm sharing how Feng Shui helped me see my house as more than just a place to live it's the environment where I create my dream life. From decluttering energy blocked spaces and welcoming fresh air into your home, to creating intentional rituals around cleaning, I'm breaking down the practical Feng Shui habits that anyone can try.

• What Feng Shui actually is and why it's becoming so popular

If you've been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, unmotivated, or simply ready for a fresh start, consider this your sign to open the windows, clear the clutter, and welcome in some good energy.
