In this episode, we explore a different reason why so many women feel exhausted. I share my own story with chronic tension, PMS, migraines, and fatigue, explain how stress and protective patterns can cut your energy flow, and guide you through a simple 5% softening practice that you can start using today.

If this episode resonates with you, I’d love to invite you to Softening Into Your Next Becoming, my October 2026 program where we gently release chronic contraction, reconnect with the body, and recover energy, softness, and joy.

A conversation with an IVF patient led me to a forgotten history: a time when women were the healers, midwives, and keepers of the wisdom of the body. In this episode, I explore how that authority was taken away, why so many women have been taught to doubt themselves, and what it means to reclaim our intuition, our bodies, and our power today.

For years, I hid my PhD.

Not because it wasn’t important, but because that chapter of my life was filled with pain, self-doubt, and a belief that I had to choose between science and healing.

In this episode, I share the story of leaving academia, finding my way through yoga, nutrition, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and women’s health, and realising that I had never lost the scientist in me, I had simply learned to integrate every part of myself.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from who you are, this conversation is for you.

And if you’re navigating perimenopause and longing for a gentler, more nourishing way through, my 6-week programme “Perimenopause Journey: Softening Into Your Next Becoming” begins in October.
