This mini-series is my gift to you, a step-by-step journey through emotional freedom, inspired by the stories, growth, and healing this podcast has created. In today’s opening episode, “The Moment You Knew Something Had to Change,” I take you back to a deeply personal turning point, the moment where survival was no longer enough, and something within me cracked open. It didn’t come with a clear path or perfect plan, just a whisper, a knowing, and a choice to honour it.
We all have that moment. Sometimes it shouts. Sometimes it whispers. But it always invites us to begin again.
In This Episode:
• The true reason I created The Freedom Series, and why this moment matters
• The raw story of when I knew I couldn’t go on the way I was
• How awareness becomes the spark that changes everything
• The silent patterns that keep us stuck: waiting, fear, self-doubt
• Journal prompts to reflect on your own “something has to change” moment
• A gentle reminder: The right time is now.
Reflection Prompts:
• When did you first feel that something had to change in your life?
• Did you listen to that nudge… or push it down?
• What would it feel like to give yourself permission to start now?
“That moment of realisation is not weakness, it’s power. It’s the spark of emotional freedom.”
