Welcome to Hey Soul Sista—the podcast for women who are ready to live with more joy, purpose, and SOUL! If you’re feeling the pull to re-discover yourself, embrace new possibilities, and create a life that truly lights you up, you’re in the right place.

Each episode, I sit down with incredible women who are sharing their soulful wisdoms and finding deeper meaning in this life. We dive into real stories, honest conversations, and practical wisdom to help you feel inspired, seen, and ready to say YES to yourself.

I’ll also bring on experts in health, wellness, mindset, and spirituality to share their best tips on how to nurture your body, mind, and soul—because thriving in midlife is about feeling good inside and out. Because midlife isn’t a crisis—it’s an awakening. 

And Hey Soul Sista is here to remind you that the best is yet to come. So hit that follow button, pour yourself a coffee (or a wine—no judgment here), and let’s navigate this journey together with laughter, courage, and a whole lot of soul.

This is Hey Soul Sista, and you are exactly where you need to be.

With love and soul, Mel Histon - your host xx

Jackie Gillies on Intuition, Healing & Transforming Your Life

The Bondi shootings shocked the nation, but they are part of a bigger story: the rise of extremism in Australia and globally.

In this episode, host Mel Histon, and guest, Dr Jen Robinson, explore the Bondi shootings and what they reveal about fear, polarisation, and the pathways to extremism — from political ideology to online radicalisation. Dr. Jen shares insights into how young people are being influenced and what families and communities can do to prevent it.

From the National Socialist Network in Melbourne to extremist online communities, this conversation dives deep into the world of radicalisation — how it starts, how it spreads, and how ordinary people can protect themselves and those they love. Mel and Dr Jen also explore the rise of polarisation in Australia and the US, and practical ways to foster open dialogue and understanding.

Content warning: This episode discusses real acts of violence, including the Bondi shootings, extremist ideology, and online radicalisation. Listener discretion is advised.

Hey Soul Sista host, Mel Histon, and Dr. Jen Robinson explore the Bondi shootings and reveals how extremism spreads through fear, polarisation, and online influence.

Bondi and the Rise of Extremism

In this deeply grounding and inspiring conversation, Hey Soul Sista host, Mel Histon, is joined by Geoff Rupp, a Vedic meditation teacher, Vedic astrologer, and founder of Find Your Calm, to explore what happens when life forces you to stop—and listen.

After being diagnosed with cancer and later made redundant from a high-pressure television career, Geoff found himself at a profound crossroads. What followed was a journey inward—through Vedic meditation, Himalayan breathwork, mindfulness, and ancient wisdom traditions—that completely reshaped the way he understood stress, purpose, and personal transformation.

Together, Mel and Geoff explore how meditation and breathwork can support us through life’s most challenging seasons, why Vedic astrology offers powerful insight into our true nature and life path, and how consistent spiritual practice helps us live with more clarity, calm, and alignment.

This episode is an honest conversation about self-discovery, healing, and awakening, and why so many people are feeling called to slow down, shed old identities, and reconnect with what truly matters.

Whether you’re navigating stress, change, or a deeper spiritual calling, this conversation offers reassurance, perspective, and practical wisdom for finding calm when life feels like it’s falling apart.

Book mentioned in this episode: 'Letting Go' by David Hawkins
