Ever wondered why certain people, patterns, or challenges keep recurring in your life? In this episode, I speak with Tracy Fance, a professional psychic, medium, and spiritual teacher who didn’t always realise she possessed these gifts.

Tracy shares how she transitioned from being a curious child fascinated by the unseen, to a seemingly "normal" life in real estate, to teaching herself tarot as life directed her down a new path.

Along the way, she trained in modalities such as hypnotherapy, Reiki, NLP, and the Akashic Records — all while facing scepticism from her own family. We explore deep topics like soul contracts, karma, and what it means to choose our life challenges before we are even born. Tracy’s story reminds us that spirituality isn’t about being “chosen” — it’s about being willing to learn, stumble, and grow into your path.

Whether you’re brand new to spirituality or you’ve been exploring it for years, Tracy breaks down these big concepts in a down-to-earth way. Expect some "aha" moments, maybe a few goosebumps, and definitely some insights you can apply to your own life journey.

Key Takeaways

• The tough people in your life may be your biggest teachers.
• Recognising patterns is the first step to breaking them.
• The body holds onto trauma, which can manifest as physical ailments.
• Understanding the root causes of issues can lead to profound healing.
• Free will means we always have the power to shift how our story unfolds.
• Soul contracts = agreements we make before birth to learn lessons.
• Karma is about balance, not punishment.
• Healing often requires looking at subconscious beliefs and old trauma.
• Spiritual gifts aren’t just “born” — they’re cultivated through practice, study, and curiosity.
• Everyone has the potential to connect with their intuition and spiritual guides.
• Teachers, guides, and safe practices are essential when exploring spirituality.

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.

In this episode, I speak with writer Tia Lashay about the intersections of creativity, identity, and personal belief. Tia shares how a quiet childhood shaped her love of writing, the decade-long process of crafting her debut novel A Question of Affection, and the complexities of portraying queer relationships as a non-queer author.

The conversation moves beyond the page, touching on Tia’s experiences with community—both sought and lost—her evolving approach to spirituality, and the role of ancestral veneration in daily life. She also reflects on how writing and public speaking challenge her natural privacy, and reads her poem I Hope for the Day.

Key Takeaways

• Solitude in childhood can nurture deep creativity and self-reflection.
• Writing can be a bridge to understanding perspectives different from your own.
• Authentic community requires dropping performance and embracing self-truth.
• Sensitivity readers are essential when writing outside your lived experience.
• Spirituality is personal and can evolve far from its origins.
• Generational trauma can impact mental health and relationships.
• Ancestral veneration can provide grounding, gratitude, and emotional resilience.
• Sharing your work publicly can combat self-doubt and build confidence.
• Seeking help for depression is a vital step towards healing.
• Sharing experiences fosters community and personal growth.

About: Tia Lashay is a first-time author, podcaster, and Southern belle residing in Charleston, South Carolina. She loves all things performance art, and when she’s not writing, she’s downtown enjoying a theatre show. Her writing and reflections are summed up in her podcast, Soul Sister Series, as well as her upcoming debut novel, Question of Affection.

Nic Collins grew up a middle child with undiagnosed ADHD, chronic asthma, and the quiet belief that he wasn’t enough. By the time he hit adulthood, alcohol had become a daily habit and emotional suppression a lifestyle. But everything changed after a DUI arrest, an unlikely friend's support, and the subsequent therapy sessions that changed his perception of himself. Now, six years sober and newly graduated as a mental health counsellor, Nic shares his journey from struggling to fit in to learning how to live in service of others.

Key Takeaways

• Childhood trauma can hide in “normal” households—emotional needs can still go unmet.
• Middle-child syndrome is real, especially when paired with sensitivity and lack of early emotional tools.
• ADHD and alcohol abuse often go hand-in-hand due to impulsivity and emotional dysregulation.
• Sobriety doesn’t look the same for everyone. You don’t have to do AA to recover—daily intention can also work for some people.
• Therapy isn't just about fixing relationships with others—it’s about understanding yourself.
• Service work can awaken a spiritual calling, even if you don’t have the language for it yet.
• You’re never too old to start over. Nic walked away from a long career to pursue a degree in counselling at 40+.
• Self-acceptance and healing are nonlinear journeys.

About: Nic Collins is a public speaker, mental health professional, and writer with a passion for helping others live with authenticity, confidence, and alignment. He holds a Master's in Counselling and Rehabilitation and brings experience in coaching, mentorship, and creative therapeutic approaches, including narrative and adventure-based work. Nic is creator and co-host of the Constant Quest Podcast, and curator of The Advance, a men's gathering in the mountains of north Georgia, focusing on community, connection, and growth.

In this very candid episode, I sit down with Janine Mitchell, the founder of Change for Success, whose life journey is a remarkable story of transformation. From working as a flight attendant to managing high-risk offenders as a UK probation officer, Janine battled burnout, abuse, and emotional trauma. She opens up about surviving an abusive marriage, the wake-up call that changed everything, and how tapping (EFT) and therapy led her to rebuild her life and career, and later move to Thailand.

Now a mindset and wellbeing coach helping overwhelmed professionals, Janine shares insight on resilience, self-belief, emotional healing, and the power of changing your inner story.

Key Takeaways

• Burnout doesn’t always look like collapse. It can show up as constant pressure, emotional exhaustion, and disconnection from purpose.
• Helping others won’t heal your own wounds. Janine worked with victims and offenders daily—while struggling in silence at home.
• Emotional abuse isn’t always visible. Coercion, gaslighting, and charm can hide years of control and harm.
• Therapy can be the turning point. One conversation helped Janine begin separating her identity from her trauma.
• Language reflects our mindset. Noticing how often she said “try” helped Janine uncover deep-rooted self-doubt.
• EFT (tapping) is a powerful self-regulation tool. Learning this simple method helped Janine manage stress, triggers, and anxiety.
• Travel created space to think clearly. Stepping away physically helped her access the clarity she couldn’t find at home.
• Healing is non-linear but possible. Change came through small daily decisions, not overnight breakthroughs.
• Your story doesn’t define your future. Janine rewrote her life from the inside out—personally and professionally.
• Wellbeing isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity. And now, it’s the foundation of her work with professionals facing similar overwhelm.

About: Janine Mitchell is the founder of Change for Success. She is also the creator of The Executive Code and runs a global wellness consultancy, she is based in Bangkok, Thailand.

In today’s episode, I speak with massage therapist, coach, and survivor Cari Rickabaugh. Cari's story begins in a home filled with fear, emotional manipulation, and a secret she wouldn’t uncover for over three decades. We explore how trauma can shape our inner voice, the limits of traditional therapy, and how one intuitive call from a friend led her to a life-changing coach. Cari speaks candidly about her healing journey—from uncovering childhood abuse, to rebuilding her sense of self, to now coaching others with the same compassion and depth that saved her life.

Key Takeaways

• Childhood trauma runs deep.
• You can't heal what you don't remember, and it can shape your life unknowingly.
• Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all - healing through coaching, not talk therapy.
• Resilience is remembering—and surviving—what once felt unspeakable.
• Nature, cold plunges, and breathwork practice.
• Real support and community matters.
• Helping others can also be a tool for healing.
• Even buried pain can find a way out.
• Seeking help is a courageous step towards healing.
• It's possible to redefine one's identity beyond past experiences.

About: With 20+ years experience, Cari ignites radical personal evolution. Blending her skills as a Massage Therapist, Master Bodyworker, and Trauma Healing Life Coach, she assists her clients in attaining powerful life transformations. Her unique fusion of somatic techniques, energy work, and coaching - rooted in her own resilience in overcoming trauma and abuse - empowers emotional release and healing, and authentic self-discovery. Her extensive experience, including work with clinics, chiropractors, and professional athletes, underscores her commitment to holistic well-being. As a published author, public speaker, and podcast host, Cari inspires lasting transformative change, guiding clients to a vibrant, renewed life.
