Ep. 12 Stop Worshipping Willpower...

This episode marks the beginning of a new chapter.A.U.R.A - Are You Really Awake?Not just to your habits, your patterns, or your day-to-day life...but to the deeper questions that sit underneath it all.Because awakening isn't always this huge cinematic moment.Sometimes it looks like catching yourself mid-pattern.Noticing where you're on autopilot.Realising you've been living in a way that doesn't quite match what you say you want.But it also opens something bigger.Questions like...Why are we here?What are we actually part of?And how much of what we believe, have we ever really questioned?This podcast isn't about having all the answers - it's a space for exploration.Where the psychological meets the spiritual.Where ancient perspectives sit alongside modern science.Where we question, expand, and look at life from angles we don't always give ourselves permission to consider.So before you go any further...ask yourself this:Are you really awake?And if this resonates with you, it would mean a lot to the podcast if you would like and follow and perhaps share with someone who's been feeling this way too and who is ready to start diving into those deeper questions.Let's get started...

Why does growth feel so uncomfortable?No one tells you this part.It's like buying the cute thong...and then actually having to wear it all day (nooooo, thank you).It looks great in theory, yet slightly unsettling in reality.It's the same with growth - it sounds lovely, until you actually have to live it.Until the conversations feel different.Your standards shift.And the life that once felt normal...doesn't quite fit anymore.In this episode, we explore the part of growth no one really talks about...Why it feels uncomfortable (cue thong wearing), exposing, and perhaps a little unsettling, even when it's exactly what you asked for.We go deeper into what's really happening psychologically, emotionally and on a soul level when you outgrow old patterns...and why this moment isn't a sign you're getting it wrong - it's a sign something is shifting.And if you're ready to stop navigating that shift on your own...Magnificent May starts tomorrow.This is your last chance to join.A 3 week reset designed to help you reconnect, regulate, and actually live as the version of you you've been becoming - without pressure, overwhelm, or doing it all in your head.Inside Magnificent May:* 90 minute live activation (30th April)* 3 weeks of simple, easy to integrate practices* A beautiful supporting PDF * A private, supportive space so you're not doing this alone* A live closing celebration call to integrate everythingThis isn't about fixing you...it's about supporting you as things shift and, if you feel the pull, trust that.Join here: https://buy.stripe.com/8x24gyfJH3MB2Nv3mx33W0iCome curious.Leave expanded.Let's decode your soul.

Something shifts...not when life gets easier but when you stop leaving yourself inside it.Three years ago, my kids were whooping and cheering because they felt like they got their mum back.This week I started working in a brand new part time role and what I thought would be a simple change...became a quiet test of everything I've relearned and rebuilt.Not of time or routine.But of self trust.Of presence.Of whether I could keep the promise I made to myself to never abandon myself again.Because the real work isn't creating a life where nothing challenges you.It's becoming someone who doesn't disappear when it does.-------------------------------------------------------------------If this resonates...if you're tired of holding everything alone, circling in your own head, and knowing there's more for you...Magnificent May is the space I've created for that shift.A place to be seen, supported, and gently moved forward - without pressure, without performance.We begin April 30th with a 90 minute opening activation, followed by three weeks of working with me, a private space for community building and connection, and a closing session for integration and celebration.

It's not fear. It's not timing.It's not lack of clarity.It's belonging...Before you post it.Before you say no.Before you change direction.Your nervous system asks one question: Will I still belong if I choose this?Most people call that hesitation - I'll be blunt, it isn't.And until you understand what it really is, you'll keep calling yourself stuck.This episode explains why.Please listen to, like and follow the show - it means more than you know.If you're ready to level up: https://hub.soulcoding.co.ukCome curious.Leave expanded.Let's decode your soul.
