Soul Care Healing: The Podcast

What happens when your biggest strength (your brilliant brain) starts running the whole show… and your heart gets left behind?   In this episode, I’m talking directly to my brainy ladies, the high-functioning, hyper-intelligent women who live for numbers, strategy, and solving problems. You know exactly how to fix everything… except maybe yourself.   If you’ve built success by thinking your way through life, but still feel disconnected, stuck, or just plain exhausted, this one’s for you. I’ll share why relying only on your head leaves your heart behind and how that...

Soul Care Healing: The Podcast

Are you living the story you’re selling… or are you quietly faking it to keep up the façade?   This one’s a little provocative, soulie, but it’s time. We’re talking about what happens when the story you’re telling the world doesn’t match the life you’re living.   In this episode, I open up about ego, inauthenticity, and the sneaky ways trauma can show up in how we lead, build, and “brand” ourselves. From the wellness space to entrepreneurship, we’re unpacking how easy it is to get caught in the performance trap, and how to come home to truth instead.  ...

Soul Care Healing: The Podcast

Have you ever wondered if your business decisions are being driven by something deeper than strategy, maybe even by unhealed parts of you?   In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I open up about something many high-functioning women rarely talk about, how trauma can quietly shape the way we show up in business. I share what it’s been like to build a purpose-driven business while carrying old patterns of fear, scarcity and survival, and how those experiences can lead to over-giving, over-investing, or trying to prove your worth through success.   You’ll learn how past...

Soul Care Healing: The Podcast

What if the missing piece in your confidence isn’t about doing more, but about appreciating yourself for what you already do?   This episode is all about radical self-appreciation. The practise of validating yourself, even when no one else claps for you. Because being the go-to woman for everyone else can leave you tired, resentful and wondering when it’s your turn to feel seen.   I’ll share why boundaries are the secret to giving without burning out, how small daily wins can transform the way you see yourself, and the difference between ego-driven giving and heart-based...

What if leadership wasn’t about being the loudest in the room, but about creating spaces where every voice counts?   In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I talk about the Outer Game of Leadership. This is part two of my leadership mini-series, and it’s all about how we show up in the world as leaders, not just for ourselves, but for the people around us.   I share why listening is a true superpower, how to create environments where ideas can flow (it’s not just in boardrooms), and why confidence in leadership isn’t about having all the answers, but knowing when to step...

Soul Care Healing: The Podcast

What if the real secret to being a brilliant leader isn’t in the boardroom but in the way you wake up, wind down, and carry yourself when no one’s clapping?   In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I’m talk about the inner game of leadership. Because leadership isn’t about titles. It’s about how you show up in your mornings, your nights, and the quiet moments no one else sees.   I’ll share why accountability (not deflection) separates the good from the great, how to let go of past wounds that keep you stuck, and why confidence is a muscle you build one small win at a...

What are your kids learning from the way you work and live, balance or burnout?   In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I’m talking about something that sits right at the heart of my work and my why - breaking the cycle of generational burnout.   I share what I’ve learned from my own brushes with burnout, the subtle signs to look out for, and the wellbeing promises I keep to myself to stay steady. Together, we talk about how the way we live, work, and rest is teaching the next generation either to survive in exhaustion or thrive in confidence and wellbeing.   If you’ve...

How do you keep parenting, leading, and showing up when grief knocks the wind out of you?   In this episode of The Soulie Insider, I’m speaking straight to my high-functioning women who are holding families, businesses, and careers together while quietly carrying the weight of grief.

SEASON 2, EP12 - Let’s talk about your table — the sacred space where your energy, time, and heart are shared.

In this episode, we’re exploring what it really means to choose your people with intention. The ones who see you, hold you, and remind you who you are when the world feels loud. The ones who pour into you, not just take from you.

We’ll chat about the difference between connection and obligation, why outgrowing certain circles is part of your healing, and how to lovingly create space for the kind of relationships that nourish your nervous system — not drain it.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering “Is it okay to say 'no, thank you' to certain relationships to allow space for new life guests?” — this conversation is a gentle nudge toward honoring your truth.

So pull up a chair, take a breath, and let’s talk tribe, boundaries, and the beauty of belonging to yourself first.




In This Episode, We Cover:

  • The Power of Belonging: Explore why humans crave connection and the benefits of being part of a supportive group.

  • Be Selective With Your Circle: Learn the importance of choosing your "dining table" guests wisely, focusing on shared values and mutual respect.

  • Setting Healthy Boundaries: Discover how to navigate relationships with people who may not be the best fit for your inner circle, even family.
