Grief coach Chris Mamone returns to Wisdom Without the Guru to talk about what genuine support looks like when someone is grieving. Drawing from his own experience after the loss of his son, and from conversations on his Empowered Grief Journey podcast, Chris tells us about how the wrong words can deepen pain, and how simple presence can heal.

This conversation spans a wide field: the difference between empathy and comparison, why men’s grief is often overlooked, the isolation that siblings feel when their loss is minimised, and how pet loss reveals unconditional love. Chris also shares ways for grievers to set boundaries — how to say “that hurt me” or “I need space” — without guilt.

It’s a grounded discussion about language, emotion, and compassion. For anyone navigating grief, or trying to support someone who is, this episode offers clear guidance on how to be human together when life falls apart.

Key Takeaways

• Grief is not a problem to solve. People want to feel seen and heard, not fixed.
• Presence often means more than words; silence is sometimes the greatest comfort.
• Avoid comparison. Saying “I know how you feel” shifts attention away from the griever.
• Men’s and siblings’ grief are frequently overlooked — both need space to be acknowledged.
• Pet loss can trigger deep grief because of its unconditional bond; don’t minimise it.
• Grievers can set boundaries and name what hurts without guilt.
• Supporters should avoid phrases like “time heals,” “move on,” or “you’ll have another one.”
• Real empathy is asking “What do you need today?” and listening to the answer.

About: Chris Mamone is an Acceptance Coach and the Founder of The Empowered Grief Journey Coaching Practice and Podcast. He helps individuals move from a place of pain into a place of hope and empowerment through their grief.

What happens when every familiar structure in life—country, language, health, even career—shifts at once? In this conversation, Czech-born guest Veronika Bubenickova traces a life shaped by transition. From growing up during political upheaval to rebuilding from scratch in the UK, to facing a sudden breast cancer diagnosis at the height of professional success, her story unfolds as a continuous study in adaptation and self-understanding.

Veronika reflects on:

• Childhood memories of a revolution and the quiet fears that children absorb when adults can’t speak openly.
• Emotional patterns inherited from families that had to stay silent for generations.
• How 9/11 triggered an early spiritual awakening and a search for meaning.
• Leaving a secure banking career after a financial crisis, moving abroad, and beginning again.
• Learning English, rebuilding her identity, and later finding a spiritual community.
• The diagnosis that changed everything, and the deliberate choice to combine medical treatment with mental focus, spiritual practice, and self-directed healing.
• The role of imagination, visualisation, and the Silva Method in staying centred through chemotherapy and surgery.
• Losing work during treatment, redefining what “purpose” means, and transforming the experience into a calling to help other women.

This episode is not only about survival but about agency—the slow rebuilding of one’s own authority after systems, borders, and the body itself have all been shaken.

Key Takeaways

• The unspoken fears of childhood can shape how we respond to later crises—until we name them.
• Medicine treats the body, but mindset and community support the terrain in which recovery happens.
• Identity can be rebuilt.
• Preparation hides inside experience.
• Support requires clarity - knowing how to ask for help.
• Purpose often begins in the aftermath.

Diagnosed with breast cancer in 2023, she turned inward and upward, choosing to heal through an integrative path that included plant-based living, energy healing, emotional trauma work, and vision-led spiritual growth. Her diagnosis became a catalyst for radical transformation, awakening a new life purpose: to help others navigate the breast cancer journey with courage, clarity, and compassion. Today, Veronika supports women facing cancer, offering personalised coaching, therapy sessions, community healing circles, and powerful online programs that honour the body, mind, soul, and heart.

What happens when the life you built no longer fits — and then grief shatters the rest? In this episode, Regina sits down with Chris Mamone, who spent years navigating corporate sales, toxic workplaces, and the weight of being misunderstood. But everything shifted after the loss of his son, Caden. Chris opens up about:

• Growing up with both support and struggle — an encouraging grandfather and a controlling mother, childhood therapy, and feeling unseen.
• Building a career in sales and mortgages, only to collide with workplace bullying and toxic leadership.
• The grounding force of his marriage and the tough love that kept him moving forward.
• Losing his grandfather during the pandemic, and later his son, Caden — a stillbirth that became the most defining and painful experience of his life.
• How grief transformed his purpose, leading him toward grief coaching and helping others feel seen, heard, and understood.
• Why he believes quitting toxic jobs, investing in yourself, and refusing to conform are essential acts of self-respect.

This is not just a story of loss — it’s about presence, courage, and the power of honouring the people who shape us, even after they’re gone.

Key Takeaways

• Childhood support and strain can coexist.
• Workplace bullying often hides behind high performance.
• Quitting can be a survival skill.
• Marriage as both anchor and mirror.
• Loss changes everything.
• Grief is not to be 'fixed.'
• Investing in yourself matters.

Host Regina Sayer and psychic medium Tracy Fance unpack the Law of Attraction without the fluff. They explore why “think happy thoughts” isn’t enough, how unconscious self-talk cancels your requests, where karma and soul contracts fit in, and how to pair intention with action. You’ll hear real stories—from prayer circles and Dr. Emoto’s water experiment to manifesting good weather and even defusing bill anxiety—with a toolkit you can start using today.

What you’ll learn

• What the Law of Attraction really is (energy, intention, resonance—not wishful thinking)
• Why language and tense matter (“I am / I have” vs “I will”)
• How unconscious loops sabotage conscious goals
• Practical daily practices: gratitude, belief-building, vision boards that work, letting go
• Where karma/soul contracts may limit (or unlock) outcomes
• The difference between manifesting and toxic positivity
• Why you must meet the universe halfway (aligned action)
• The power—and risk—of collective thought (and online energy)

Key takeaways

• The Law of Attraction = energetic resonance; you’re using it whether you realise it or not.
• Language matters: use present/past tense (“I am / I have”), not future (“I will”).
• Unconscious rumination cancels conscious requests; clean up the background loop.
• Gratitude is the fastest daily way to lift your baseline; feel it, don’t just list it.
• Avoid toxic positivity; acknowledge reality while choosing a constructive focus.
• Break affirmations into believable steps; stack wins to expand belief.
• Vision boards need novelty (move items) so your brain keeps noticing them.
• Ask → trust → detach; constantly re-asking slows delivery.
• Meet the universe halfway with consistent, aligned action.
• Karma & soul contracts can gate outcomes until lessons are integrated.
• Collective energy amplifies results—for better or worse.
• If your goal involves others, align the group’s energy and intentions.

About: Tracy Fance is a psychic, medium & tarot reader, but that only scratches the surface of what she does. She's like your Spirit guide here on earth, helping you to navigate life as a spiritual being, having a human existence. She helps you to heal the blocks that are holding you back and to develop spiritually and psychically, guiding you through readings to support you living your best life.

Juliana Matye, a former social worker, adoptee, mother, and now a trauma-informed coach, shares her journey from a career in child protection and social services, through personal burnout and PTSD, to finding healing through somatic practices and coaching. Her story weaves together professional insight and lived experience, offering a grounded perspective on trauma, resilience, and the slow process of rebuilding purpose.

Listeners will hear about Juliana’s early life as an adoptee, her years on the frontlines of child welfare, the emotional toll of burnout, and how she came to embrace somatic work as both a personal practice and a vocation.

Key Takeaways

• Early adoption experiences can shape attachment patterns and emotional regulation well into adulthood.
• Frontline social work exposes workers to deep systemic trauma, often without sufficient institutional support.
• Burnout and PTSD may surface most strongly during personal life transitions, such as motherhood.
• Somatic practices offer a path to healing by addressing trauma stored in the body, not just through talk therapy.
• Self-regulation skills—breathwork, meditation, creativity—are essential for long-term resilience.
• Healing is not about erasing trauma but learning to sit with it and reframe it as part of one’s life purpose.

About: Juliana Matye is a Trauma-Informed Coach and Somatic Practitioner with over 15 years of experience helping individuals break free from trauma patterns and create healthy, fulfilling relationships. Her work centres on building the habits, lifestyle, and emotional skills that foster lasting growth, resilience, and deep connection. Through a blend of trauma-informed care and somatic practices, she guides clients in expanding their emotional capacity, regulating their nervous system, and cultivating a life—and relationships—rooted in safety, presence, and love.

In this special episode, Regina welcomes back psychic medium and tarot reader Tracy Fance for an in-depth conversation on discovering your life purpose.

• What “life purpose” really means — and why we often have more than one.
• The role of soul contracts and how they shape our journeys.
• Signs you’re not living your purpose (and what that feels like).
• Tools like tarot, Akashic records, and childhood “signposts” that point the way.
• Real-life examples of people who turned personal struggles into powerful missions.

Whether you’re questioning your career, relationships, or calling, this episode offers insights to help you recognise the themes and experiences guiding your path.

Key Takeaways

• Life purpose isn’t always one big thing — it often evolves and overlaps with soul contracts.
• Purpose doesn’t have to be “Mother Teresa-level”; it can be expressed in everyday roles.
• Signs you’re off-purpose: lethargy, dissatisfaction, or feeling “stuck.”
• Childhood passions often hold clues to what you’re meant to do later in life.
• Life isn’t random — experiences and struggles can become training grounds for purpose.
• Tools like tarot, Akashic records, and coaching can help, but personal discovery is powerful.
• Purpose is ultimately about being of service to others, in whatever way aligns with your gifts.

In this conversation, Regina sits down with Carl Morgan, an Australian ultramarathon runner, double decathlon athlete, business owner, and aspiring coach, whose childhood was shaped by violence, instability, and loneliness. Carl opens up about his early experiences with trauma, his years in foster care, how sports and endurance challenges gave him purpose, his struggles with addiction, and the pivotal accident that changed his path. Today, he’s focused on healing, building authentic connections, and guiding others through mindset, discipline, and purpose.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Carl’s childhood experiences with violence, instability, and epilepsy
• The protective role he took on for his younger sisters
• Finding belonging and achievement in sports, including competing at the World Double Decathlon Championships
• Years of disconnection, drinking, and drugs — and the accident that became his turning point
• Healing through ayahuasca, mantras, and mindset work
• Reconciling with his family after 20 years of estrangement
• His current path into speaking, life coaching, and helping others find purpose in pain

Key Takeaways:

• Addiction often hides in “normal” patterns. What started as cultural drinking escalated into daily dependency, masked by work and fitness.
• Hitting rock bottom isn’t the end — it’s a doorway. Carl’s accident forced him to confront his patterns and step into discipline.
• Forgiveness doesn’t erase the past, but it can heal the present. Reconnecting with his mother after 20 years was rooted in acceptance, not fixing.
• Mantras and rituals can rewire old stories. Small daily practices shifted Carl’s identity and belief systems.
• Purpose doesn’t arrive fully formed. It revealed itself through Carl’s hardships, endurance, and moments of clarity.
• Authenticity can feel uncomfortable to others — but it’s essential. Carl learned that vulnerability isn’t weakness, it’s strength.

About: Carl Morgan has walked a long road of figuring out who he is, overcoming personal and business challenges, and exploring what truly shapes us as people. He’s studied habits, read countless books, and worked with coaches and mentors like Tony Robbins to understand how who we are is built through what we do consistently. His journey into emotional awareness, connection, and attachment theory has helped him uncover a deeper sense of who he is. Today, he’s focused on three simple things: creating genuine connection through community, staying fit and healthy, and continually challenging the beliefs that guide his life.
