#200 - Sanchia Watts - How Sound Healing Fixes Your Burnt Out Nervous System

In this episode I'm answering real questions from the audience on three of the biggest human struggles — fear of losing a parent, surrendering control and self-trust.If you've ever felt like no matter what you do it's never enough, or you know what you should do but can't make yourself do it — this one's for you.We get into why your emotions are running the show beneath the surface, what self-sabotage is actually telling you, and how to start breaking free from the patterns that keep you stuck.If you'd like to book a free discovery call to explore working with me, link below 👇https://egancoaching.com/collections/discoverycallThanks for listening — if this resonated, a 5-star rating on Spotify and a subscribe on YouTube goes a long way.

We are joined by Charlotte Milda, known as the Soul Architect, who reads soul contracts — the predetermined agreement your soul made before arriving here, encoded in the sound vibration of your birth name.Most people spend a lifetime trying to understand themselves through frameworks, theories, and self-improvement, yet still feel an inch removed from their own life. The assumption is that more awareness equals more freedom. But for many, especially those wired toward the mind, endless understanding becomes a sophisticated way of avoiding the descent into actually living the lesson. Insight without embodiment is another form of escape — and the body, the relationships, and the unmet purpose all keep the score.What if your name has been speaking your purpose the whole time? What if the patterns repeating in your life aren't obstacles, but the curriculum?Charlotte is a grounded guide for this work, bringing precision and compassion to a system that turns confusion into a map.Expect to learn about:What a soul contract is and how your karma, talents, goals, and purpose are encoded in your nameWhy your relationship with your name mirrors your relationship with your true selfHow karmic patterns repeat until met — and why the same lesson keeps showing up in different formsWhy otherworldly souls must descend into the body rather than try to transcend out of itThe difference between your soul's intention and your human personality, and how the two are meant to mergeWhat walk-ins, near-death experiences, and exit points reveal about the soul's intelligenceWhy power is the central lesson playing out across the collective right nowHow understanding your contract changes the way you navigate relationships, health, and purposeThis episode is for those willing to trade the comfort of understanding for the depth of embodiment — and meet themselves not as a project to fix, but as a contract to live.Charlotte Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/charlottemilda_soularchitect/Egan Links: https://linktr.ee/eganbrooksBig love, Egan

We are joined by Scott Wallace, a breathwork facilitator and transformational mentor who helps people regulate their nervous system and integrate the emotions they've been quietly carrying for years.Most of us learn how to function before we learn how to feel. We build careers, relationships, and identities on top of what hasn't yet been processed — trusting that if we keep moving forward, the weight beneath us will pass through on its own. It rarely does.Modern self-help often frames healing as something we ascend toward — as if becoming more positive or more aware will lift us out of what we've been avoiding. But the work doesn't move that way. The height of any ascension is mirrored by the depth of our willingness to descend. We don't transcend the shadow. We integrate it.What goes unfelt doesn't disappear. It accumulates — in the breath we hold without realising, in the nervous system that's been activated for so long it now feels normal, in the quiet regret of a life spent half-arrived.What if freedom isn't on the other side of feeling better, but on the other side of feeling fully?Scott is deeply skilled at helping people meet themselves in the parts they've been bypassing, bringing somatic, psychological, and emotional clarity to an inner journey most people don't realise they've been postponing.Expect to learn about:Why the way you breathe is the way you do lifeHow unprocessed emotions get stored in the body — and what they cost you when they don't moveWhat a dysregulated nervous system actually is, and why most people are functioning inside oneWhy ascending without descending will always cap your growthHow core wounds shape adult behaviour beneath conscious awarenessWhy men suppress what they most need to express — and the real cost of that patternWhat separates a healthy boundary from a wall disguised as oneWhy the relationships we most resist healing are often the ones that free usThis conversation is for anyone who's done managing their emotions on the surface and is ready to meet what's been waiting underneath. It's not a fix — it's a reorientation toward depth, self-responsibility, and the long, slow work of becoming whole.Scott Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/earthcentred/Egan Instagram: https://linktr.ee/eganbrooksBig love,Egan

We are joined by Mitchell Vickridge, a holistic coach, Demartini Method facilitator, and educator who has spent over two decades helping individuals dissolve the unconscious programs, emotional charges, and inherited identities that quietly govern their lives.Most of us are not aware of how deeply we are being lived by our past. The beliefs we formed in survival, the wounds we could not afford to feel, the identities we built around our pain — these do not disappear with time. They shape everything.Real transformation does not come from addition. It comes from integration — from reclaiming the parts of yourself that were never wrong, only unmet. The cost of avoiding this lives in the body as illness, in relationships as repeated patterns, and in the mind as the gap between who you perform yourself to be and who you sense yourself to actually be.What would it mean to stop trying to fix yourself and begin to understand yourself instead?Mitchell Vickridge is deeply skilled at helping individuals navigate this process, bringing clarity, integration, and embodied understanding to the inner journey.Expect to learn about:Why depression and anxiety are feedback signals, not disorders to be eliminatedHow your body expresses the emotional charges your mind refuses to processWhy self-sabotage does not exist — and what is actually happening beneath the surfaceHow unconscious motives keep people loyal to the very suffering they claim to want to escapeWhy positive thinking and manifestation culture are incomplete and quietly dangerousWhat actually drives ADHD, distraction, and chronic unfocus — and why it is never about willpowerHow doing your own inner work epigenetically shapes the people closest to youWhy trying to become a better person is the trap — and what integration actually looks likeThis episode is for the person who has done the reading, attended the workshops, and still feels something essential has not shifted — and who is ready to stop seeking and start integrating.Mitch Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mitchellvickridge/?hl=enEgan Links:https://linktr.ee/eganbrooksBig love, Egan

We are joined by Luke Balcke, an evolutionary astrologer and past life regression therapist who uses the language of the cosmos to illuminate the forces shaping our collective reality.Most of us navigate uncertainty by consuming more information — more news, more opinions, more narratives. What we rarely do is step back far enough to observe the larger pattern beneath the chaos. Luke argues that real navigation doesn't come from knowing more. It comes from knowing who you are beneath the noise.The cost of skipping this work is quiet but cumulative — anxiety that masquerades as being informed, fear that hardens into helplessness, and the slow erosion of the only thing you can actually influence: how you respond to what's already in motion.Luke Balcke is deeply skilled at helping individuals navigate this process, bringing astrological precision and rare philosophical calm to questions most people are too overwhelmed to sit with.Expect to learn about:What the Saturn-Neptune conjunction of 2026 signals for the years ahead — and the key astrological windows to watchWhy Luke sees current global upheaval as the end of an age, not the end of the worldThe difference between preparation and panic — and how to find your personal exposure to what's unfoldingHow past life regression works and what it reveals about the patterns quietly running your lifeWhy real change — personal or collective — has never emerged from comfortThis episode is for anyone ready to stop reacting and start responding — with clarity, grounding, and genuine self-responsibility.Luke's Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/lukebalcke/Egan Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/eganbrooks/Thankyou, enjoy.

We are joined by Sanchia, a sound healer and founder of Sound Healing Perth, who has spent years making the science of stillness accessible to people who have forgotten how to stop.Most of us are running on autopilot — making decisions from conditioning we never chose, chasing outcomes that were never really ours. The self-help world sells healing as something you add to your life. But what if the real work is about subtraction — stripping back the layers until you can finally hear yourself?The cost of skipping this work shows up everywhere. In your body, your relationships, your business, and the quiet hollowness beneath even your biggest achievements.What does it actually take to slow down enough to hear the truth? And when you do — do you have the courage to act on it?Sanchia is deeply skilled at helping individuals navigate this process, bringing clarity, integration, and embodied understanding to the inner journey.Expect to learn about:The neuroscience behind sound healing and why frequency shifts the nervous system out of fight-or-flightHow self-limiting beliefs silently govern your relationships, career, and self-worthThe paradox of building a business rooted in slowing downWhy "love and light" spirituality can be just as suppressive as hustle cultureHow your physical environment reflects your nervous system's sense of worthinessWhy real transformation requires integration — not just awarenessThis episode is for anyone ready to stop searching externally and do the honest work of looking within.Sanchia & Her Sound Healing in Perth:https://www.instagram.com/soundhealingperth/Egan Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/eganbrooks/Big love,Egan

We are joined by Ole Hill, Australia’s leading hypnotist who helps people break free from limiting beliefs and self-sabotage by working directly with the subconscious mind.Most people think change comes from willpower, but much of our behaviour is driven by patterns we didn’t consciously choose. We try to think differently, act differently, be better — yet keep falling into the same cycles.The real issue isn’t effort. It’s the unconscious programs running beneath it.And when those patterns go unaddressed, they quietly shape our confidence, relationships, and sense of control — often leaving us feeling stuck, frustrated, or disconnected from who we know we could be.So the question becomes:Are you actually in control of your mind — or are you living out something deeper?Ole Hill is deeply skilled at helping individuals access and rewire these patterns, creating real, lasting change from the inside out.Expect to learn about:How the subconscious mind drives behaviour and identityWhy willpower and mindset alone often failWhat hypnosis actually is (and what it isn’t)How limiting beliefs and self-sabotage are formedPractical ways to reprogram unconscious patternsThe link between subconscious beliefs and confidenceWhy lasting change requires deeper internal workThis episode is for anyone ready to stop repeating the same patterns and create change at the level where it actually begins.Ole instagram: https://www.instagram.com/summithypnotism/?hl=enEgan Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eganbrooks/?hl=enThanks for listening!

We are joined by Dr. Ash Hamilton, an osteopath who integrates the mind and body to help people understand chronic pain, emotional patterns, and the deeper intelligence behind physical symptoms.Most people treat pain as something to fix or suppress. But in doing so, we create internal conflict — separating mind from body, logic from emotion, and ignoring parts of ourselves trying to be heard.We’re taught that growth is about becoming better, more disciplined, more positive — but real transformation often comes from integrating what we’ve avoided. What if pain isn’t the problem, but the message?Because when we ignore these signals, it doesn’t just stay physical — it shows up as burnout, disconnection, and a life built on compensation rather than truth.So the question becomes… are you willing to listen to what your body is trying to tell you?And if you did — what would it reveal?Dr. Ash Hamilton brings a grounded, practical approach to this process, helping individuals reconnect with their body and integrate what’s been ignored.Expect to learn about: Why pain is feedback, not something to fixHow suppressed emotions show up in the bodyThe “cup filling up” and why injuries aren’t randomHow perception shapes your experience of painWhy self-improvement can reinforce imbalanceThe link between identity, overcompensation, and burnoutHow unexpressed parts of yourself drive symptomsSimple ways to start listening to your bodyThis episode is for anyone stuck in cycles of stress, injury, or self-sabotage — and ready to move beyond surface-level fixes into deeper awareness and integration.Dr Ash instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.ashhamilton/Book a session with Ash:https://linktr.ee/AshleyHamiltonThankyou!Egan

We are joined by Brett Lloyd, a men’s intimacy coach who helps men understand the deeper emotional patterns shaping how they experience sex, connection and vulnerability.Intimacy is one of the most private struggles many men carry yet it’s rarely spoken about honestly. Beneath issues like performance anxiety or premature ejaculation often sits something deeper—shame, conditioning and a nervous system that never learned to slow down and feel safe in closeness. Instead, many men unconsciously fall into patterns of performing, wearing masks of confidence while feeling uncertain underneath.When these patterns go unexamined, anxiety replaces presence and connection begins to suffer. The real question becomes: what changes when men slow down enough to understand themselves and bring awareness into intimacy?Brett Lloyd is deeply skilled at helping individuals navigate this process, bringing clarity, integration and embodied understanding to the inner journey.Why premature ejaculation is often rooted in anxiety and nervous system patternsHow slowing down during intimacy can transform confidence and connectionWhat role the pelvic floor plays in sexual control and awarenessWhy shame can become a powerful teacher when it’s understoodHow upbringing and conditioning shape men’s beliefs about intimacyWhy emotional safety is essential for deeper sexual connectionHow masculine and feminine energies influence attraction and polarityWhat vulnerability and communication look like in healthy relationshipsThis episode is for anyone ready to look beneath the surface of intimacy, understand the psychology behind connection, and develop deeper awareness within themselves and their relationships.Brett's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brettlloydy/Thankyou for listening.

We are joined by John Templeton, a personal development coach and fitness trainer who guides individuals through the work of uncovering who they truly are beneath performance and expectation.So much of identity is shaped by childhood patterns, societal roles and the pressures we silently absorb. We grow into personas that help us survive yet eventually trap us. Only when these structures begin to crack do we recognise the deeper questions we’ve been avoiding.We’re taught that growth is about building more discipline, more success and more certainty but often the real transformation comes from letting go — releasing the identities built on validation or fear. Avoiding this inner work leads to a quiet dissatisfaction, the sense that achievement isn’t the same as fulfilment and that something essential is being overlooked in the rush to “become someone.”If we don’t turn inward, this misalignment can echo through our relationships, choices and sense of meaning.Who are we without the roles we’ve relied on? And what truths emerge when we stop negotiating with our own discomfort?John Templeton is deeply skilled at helping individuals navigate this unraveling with grounded clarity and embodied understanding.Expect to learn about:Why authenticity is an ongoing practice and not a fixed identityHow structured environments can shape but not define who we becomeThe subtle pull of external validation and what lies beneath itHow identity crises signal deeper transitions in purposeWhy achievement without inner alignment leads to emptinessThe role of contribution in creating a life that feels meaningfulHow presence restores clarity and reduces unnecessary sufferingHow morality, truth and language influence the way we interpret realityFollow John's Work: https://www.instagram.com/johntempletonofficial/Get my Top 50 Must Read Books:BOOK LIST HEREAll Links:https://linktr.ee/eganbrooksInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/eganbrooks/Big love,Make sure to hit the follow button & the 3 dots, then rate show.Egan
