My guest today is Alice. She is in her early 40’s, a mum to two very active young boys, a nutritionist and a yogi. She enjoys a regular meditation practice, connecting with nature, meaningful conversation and cooking healthy and nutritious meals. She has done work with me for a long time.

Here are some of the valuable insights she shares:
 Her ‘Aha’ moment: I am in charge of my emotions and my physical state
 The physical body gives us so many clues and it shows us the way
 Love, joy, contentment & peace are qualities of the heart
Anger transforming into vibrancy
Letting go into an inner hole that feels like quicksand
Trusting our intuition
Being whole means being fully present
This work is available to anyone
Her tip for the listener: start meditating (showing up and checking in with yourself) 5 to 10 mins a day

Alice on being in control of our lives

My guest today is Anthony Hughes. He is 42 years old, a full-time musician, singer, songwriter, DJ and MC. He used to own a bar and has an environmental science degree. He is a passionate surfer and recently got married. 
Anthony has been a client of mine for about 15 years. He can be very funny and always makes me laugh in his sessions.

Here are some of the themes we covered:
• His curiosity got him to start the inner work
• Anxiety is the messenger of repressed material
• How he feels about something can be very different from what he thinks about it
• Connecting with the physical body is the way in for him
• He learnt to feel emotions in stages, first pain, then anger and eventually fear 
• He compares the wounded inner child with an ‘ingrown hair follicle’
• “Underneath that sadness and the abandoned feeling was complete and utter joy and enveloping white light” 
• His tip for the listener:
“Allow whatever is there and take responsibility for what you are attracting and your reactions to things”

Interview with Anthony on direct experience being the best teacher

My guest today is Aurora Kerr. She is 55 years old, has worked as a social worker specializing in grief and loss during the HIV/AIDS pandemic, as a life coach, social activist, retreat owner, fundraiser, volunteer and travel agent. 
Her passions are travel, nature, meditation and personal growth, and advocating for empathy and refugee rights.

Aurora is an emerging writer of fiction, after a long career of helping others as a therapist. She now combines her love of working with people with her vivid imagination and love of characters and books. She lives between Melbourne and Byron Bay.  

We have known each other for about 20 years.

Here are some of her valuable and meaningful insights:

• She has overcome childhood trauma and fear through doing the work and has reconnected with her light
• All trauma is addressable with bravery and focus
• The heart is essential – to be heart-centred rather than mind-centred is the transformation
• She learnt to set healthy boundaries and protect herself in the right way
• She has always been in awe of who she was and understood her light and her intuition from a very young age
• “Never give up” as crucial guidance
• Examples of her experience of true nature are strength, expansion, ancientness and feeling at home
• Fear is worse than what you are fearing
• “Use your courage to face what you are fearing and know that your true nature is waiting for you on the other side” 
• Her tips for the listener:
1. Share this book with your therapist
2. Worst and best exercise (p. 57 in my book)
3. “Be curious about yourself. YOU are unique and there is no one like you.”

Interview with Aurora on overcoming childhood trauma and fear

My guest today is Lisa. She is a Professional Coach and Facilitator in her mid-forties. 
She specialises in working with leaders and teams, developing Emotional Intelligence, improved communication skills and psychological safety in the workplace. She is also a coach trainer and mentor.
Lisa loves quality time with family and friends, keeping fit and well, spending time outdoors and her creative pursuits include dance, music and writing. She has been committed to personal development since 1998.

I met Lisa in late 2002 as a client. About 2008 we made a conscious decision to end the therapeutic relationship and give our friendship a go. She has now been my best friend for over a decade.

Here are some of the highlights from our passionate conversation:

– Ongoing health and emotional issues and a strong inner critic motivated her to do the inner work
– She made peace with being vulnerable despite being conditioned to be tough and learnt to accept being a ‘Highly Sensitive Person’ 
– Her key learnings:
1. There will be peaks and valleys as long as we live
2. I am not my mind; I am way more than just the mind
3. I can be strong and sensitive at the same time
– She has become an ally for herself, not just for family and friends
– Learning to be with and allowing the entire spectrum of emotions
– Some of her experiences of true nature are deep listening from the heart, empathy, joy and powerful inner aliveness

She has 2 tips for the listener:
– Phone a friend and ask: ‘How are you really?’ Be with, listen and hold space for each other
– Free-style dancing to shake off stress
