Hey Soul Sista 

How to re-programme your brain!

Have you ever wished you could have just one more conversation with someone you've lost? Or wondered whether they're still somehow close to you?

In this deeply comforting and soulful episode of Hey Soul Sista, I welcome back bestselling author and medium Chezzi Denyer for an honest conversation about grief, death, the afterlife and the connections we share with those we love.

Chezzi believes that death doesn't have to mean the end of our connection with someone. Drawing on her personal experiences with mediumship, she shares how we can begin to recognise the signs, find comfort in memories and create space to feel close to those who have passed away.

Together, we explore how different cultures honour their loved ones, why there should never be a timeline for grief, and how we can learn to live fully while still carrying the love of those we've lost.

In this episode, you'll discover:


Practical ways to feel connected to loved ones who have passed away.


How to recognise what Chezzi believes may be signs from spirit, including dreams, music, familiar scents and unexpected moments.


Why grief doesn't have an expiry date, and why it's okay to laugh, love and find happiness again.


How different cultures approach death, remembrance and the afterlife.


The moving personal experiences Chezzi has had with her own loved ones, including her mother, who is living with dementia.


How a forgotten memory of Melissa's beloved grandmother leads to a beautiful realisation during their conversation.

Whether you're grieving someone you love, curious about the spirit world or simply seeking comfort and a new perspective on death, this episode is a gentle reminder that love doesn't disappear when someone dies. It simply changes the way we experience it.

Chezzi Denyer: How to Connect With Loved Ones Who Have Passed Away

What really happens when we die — and what does it teach us about how to truly live?

In this soul-expanding episode, Rebecca Gibson, a psychic medium and psychiatric nurse, shares her extraordinary personal near-death experience and the profound insights it gave her about consciousness, life after death, and the healing power of the Higher Self.

Rebecca’s story bridges the worlds of science and spirit, offering a compassionate, grounded perspective on what it means to journey beyond the body — and return transformed.

Through her own near-death experience and years of work supporting others, Rebecca reveals how these moments between life and death awaken us to deeper truths about love, healing, and the eternal nature of consciousness.

This conversation explores:


What happens when consciousness expands beyond the physical body


How Rebecca witnessed her own surgery from above — and the peace she felt on the other side


Why many people who’ve had NDEs lose their fear of death and completely transform their lives


How reconnecting with the Higher Self can activate deep emotional and physical healing — what some call quantum healing


The growing intersection between spirituality and mental health


And how compassion, purpose, and trust are key to living an awakened life

If you’ve ever wondered what lies beyond the veil, or how these extraordinary experiences can change everything we think we know about life and death — this episode will open your heart and mind.

My Near Death Experience and What I Learned About the Spirit Realm

Ladies, let's talk about sex, pelvic floors, leaking when we sneeze, and what really happens to our vaginas as we get older!

Did you know you can actually do too many Kegels? Or that changes during menopause can affect the length, flexibility and comfort of your vaginal canal? And why do some women lose interest in sex in midlife, while others discover a whole new level of intimacy and pleasure?

In this eye-opening, wonderfully candid conversation, Mel is joined by Lisa Fitzpatrick, a physiotherapist with over 30 years of experience and a special interest in women's pelvic and sexual health, and author of Sexy Menopause.

Together, they explore the changes happening to women's bodies during midlife, the pelvic health issues so many of us quietly put up with, and why understanding our bodies is such an important part of feeling confident, healthy and connected to ourselves.

Lisa also shares her deeply personal story of finding herself single at 51, navigating heartbreak and menopause, and rediscovering her confidence, sensuality and sense of self.

In this episode, we explore:


Why leaking when you laugh, sneeze or exercise isn't something you simply have to accept.


How doing too many Kegels could actually be contributing to pelvic floor problems.


What really happens to your vagina, pelvic tissues and sexual function during menopause.


Why libido can disappear in midlife — and what might help bring it back.


The connection between stress, emotional safety, relationships and sexual desire.


Practical ways to support pelvic health, intimacy and sexual wellbeing as we age.


Why midlife can be an opportunity to rediscover pleasure, confidence and connection with ourselves.

From the science of pelvic health to the deeply personal experience of rebuilding your life, this conversation is a reminder that getting older doesn't mean giving up on feeling sexy, confident or connected to your body.

Because sometimes, understanding ourselves a little better can change everything. 💗
