Have you ever promised yourself, "This time will be different"… only to find yourself slipping back into the same habits, behaviours or patterns?

Whether it's emotional eating, people-pleasing, unhealthy relationships, procrastination or simply struggling to stick with the changes you want to make, so many of us end up asking the same question:

Why do I keep doing this?

In this episode of Hey Soul Sista, psychologist Kaz Amos explains why lasting change is about so much more than willpower. Together, we explore what's really happening inside the brain, why we're wired to seek what's familiar, how our nervous system shapes our behaviour, and why understanding ourselves with compassion is often the key to breaking old patterns.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• Why we keep returning to behaviours we know aren't serving us
• The difference between knowing what to do and actually being able to do it
• Why your brain naturally prefers what's familiar
• How neural pathways influence your habits and behaviour
• The role of dopamine, stress and emotional regulation
• Why shame often keeps us stuck
• Practical ways to create lasting change with self-awareness and self-compassion

If you've ever felt frustrated with yourself for ending up back where you started, this episode will leave you with a completely different perspective—and hopefully a little more kindness towards yourself.

Why You Keep Going Back to Old Habits (It's Not About Willpower) with Kaz Amos

Australian entertainer, comedian, author and broadcaster Em Rusciano joins Mel Histon to talk about her new live show, "Addicted to Love." But what unfolds is a deeply personal conversation about identity, AuDHD, self-worth, relationships, midlife, and why so many women spend their lives seeking validation before learning to choose themselves.

In this honest and thought-provoking episode, Mel and Em explore the patterns that keep so many women seeking validation, approval and the feeling of being "chosen."

Known for her fearless honesty and razor-sharp humour, Em shares how receiving an AuDHD diagnosis later in life helped her better understand herself, while opening the door to a much bigger conversation about identity, relationships and self-worth.

Together, Mel and Em discuss why so many women lose themselves trying to meet other people's expectations, and what it really takes to reclaim your voice, your confidence and your sense of self.

In this episode we explore:

• Em's journey following her AuDHD diagnosis
• The inspiration behind her show "Addicted to Love"
• Why so many women seek validation outside themselves
• People-pleasing and "good girl" conditioning
• Relationships, dating and choosing yourself after heartbreak
• Perimenopause, identity and midlife transformation
• Learning to trust yourself and let go of perfection
• Why self-worth changes everything

This conversation is funny, vulnerable, insightful and filled with those moments that make you stop and think, "I've never looked at it that way before."

If you've ever felt like you've spent your life trying to be enough for everyone else, this episode is for you.

From Brain Fog to Chin Hairs: Navigating Perimenopause with Dr Shauna Watts

What if the parts of yourself you've spent your whole life hiding are actually your greatest gifts?

In this powerful episode of Hey Soul Sista, Mel Histon sits down with author, speaker and psychic medium Chezzi Denyer to explore the extraordinary story behind her new book, 'The Weird Little Girl Who Talked To Ghosts'.

As a child, Chezzi experienced what she describes as communication with spirits and a deep connection to the unseen world. But after years of feeling different, being labelled "weird" and trying to fit in, she gradually shut that part of herself down.

It wasn't until a profound period of grief, loss and personal transformation that those experiences began to return—leading her on a journey that would change her life forever.

Together, Mel and Chezzi explore:

• Growing up feeling different and learning to hide who you are
• The impact of childhood experiences and being labelled "weird"
• Why so many women dim their light to fit in
• Grief, loss and spiritual awakening
• Intuition, signs and synchronicities
• Messages from loved ones who have passed
• Motherhood, self-doubt and learning to trust yourself
• Whether we all have intuitive abilities
• How to reconnect with your inner knowing
• The inspiration behind The Weird Little Girl Who Talked To Ghosts

Whether you're curious about mediumship, fascinated by spirituality, navigating grief, or simply trying to reconnect with your authentic self, this conversation offers comfort, insight and hope.

The Weird Little Girl Who Talked To Ghosts with Chezzi Denyer

After spending seven days in a coma with a rare and life-threatening form of bacterial meningitis, renowned neurosurgeon Dr Eben Alexander says he experienced a reality beyond this world—one that challenged everything he thought he knew about life, death and consciousness.

Before his near-death experience, Dr Eben was a respected brain surgeon who believed consciousness was created entirely by the brain. But what happened during those seven days would completely transform his understanding of reality and lead him to write the international bestseller Proof of Heaven.

In this profound and thought-provoking conversation, host - Mel Histon - and Dr Eben explore some of humanity's biggest questions:

✨ What happens when we die?
✨ Does consciousness survive beyond the physical body?
✨ Can we reconnect with loved ones after death?
✨ What is a life review?
✨ Why are so many people reporting near-death experiences?
✨ Is there a deeper purpose behind suffering and grief?
✨ What role does love play in the journey of the soul?

Dr Eben also shares the extraordinary story of meeting a woman during his near-death experience who would later be revealed to be his biological sister—someone he had never met in this lifetime.

Whether you're curious, skeptical, grieving someone you love, or simply searching for deeper meaning, this conversation offers a fascinating exploration of life, death and the possibility that we are far more than our physical bodies.

One message sits at the heart of Dr Eben's story:

"You are deeply loved and cherished forever."

Proof of Heaven: What Really Happens When We Die? with Dr Eben Alexander

What if healing isn't about becoming someone new, but remembering who you've always been?

In this deeply soulful and thought-provoking conversation, Melissa sits down with psychotherapist, trauma therapist and author Naomi Sirio to explore the connection between healing, spirituality and the journey back to self.

Drawing on more than two decades of therapeutic practice and the insights from her new book Souljourn, Naomi shares why so many of us feel disconnected, how childhood experiences continue to shape our adult lives, and what it really means to do the inner work.

Together they explore attachment styles, trauma, grief, relationships, self-sabotage, journaling, meditation and the parts of ourselves we leave behind along the way. They also dive into the spiritual side of healing, discussing signs from loved ones who have passed, intuition, soul connection and the possibility that there is more to life than what we can see.

This is a conversation about slowing down, listening inwardly, and finding your way home to yourself.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The meaning behind Naomi's book Souljourn
• Why healing is a lifelong journey
• Attachment styles and how they shape our relationships
• Childhood trauma and the impact of emotional attunement
• Why we repeat patterns and self-sabotage
• The power of journaling and self-reflection
• Meditation, somatic healing and reconnecting with the body
• Signs from spirit and connection with loved ones who have passed
• Finding meaning, purpose and connection in everyday life
• The journey back to your authentic self

If you've ever felt lost, disconnected, or curious about the deeper meaning behind your experiences, this episode offers gentle wisdom, hope and practical insights for your own soul journey.

A soulful conversation on how to simplify your life, reduce overwhelm, set boundaries, and create more space for self-care and calm in everyday living.

Simplify Your Life and Nurture Yourself

From foster care and homelessness to becoming a powerful advocate for vulnerable young people — this is an unforgettable conversation about resilience, healing, and turning pain into purpose.

In this deeply moving episode of Hey Soul Sista, host Mel Histon, sits down with physiotherapist, youth advocate, and ultramarathon runner Natalia Hogan to talk about the childhood trauma that shaped her life — including experiences of foster care, homelessness, domestic violence, instability, and growing up without safety or security.

Natalia shares what it was really like navigating childhood in survival mode, couch surfing as a teenager, living in youth accommodation at just 15 years old, and carrying the hidden shame of feeling “different” while trying to appear normal at school.

But this episode is also about hope.

Natalia opens up about the inner work and healing that helped her rebuild her life, the powerful role exercise and endurance played in her recovery, and the extraordinary 175km ultramarathon she completed to raise awareness and funds for youth homelessness services.

Together, Mel and Natalia explore:
Childhood trauma and survival
Foster care and youth homelessness
Healing the inner child
Therapy, resilience, and emotional healing
The connection between trauma and endurance
Learning to feel worthy of love and support
Running 175km for change
Turning adversity into purpose

This is a raw, emotional, and inspiring conversation that shines a light on what so many young people experience behind closed doors — and the incredible strength it can take to rewrite your story.

After surviving foster care, homelessness, and childhood trauma, Natalia Hogan is now using ultramarathon running and advocacy to change the lives of vulnerable young people.

She Survived Foster Care & Homelessness — Now She’s Changing Lives

Why do we keep attracting the same relationships… repeating the same patterns… and choosing what feels familiar, even when it hurts?

In this episode of Hey Soul Sista, I sit down with Amy Nobile Messing to explore the hidden patterns that shape how we love, choose, and connect in modern life.

We go far beyond dating and relationships into the deeper layers of human behaviour—why we repeat the same patterns, how our subconscious and emotional wounds influence who we’re drawn to, and what it really means to create conscious, aligned connection.

Amy shares her powerful insight that “you can only meet someone as deeply as you’ve met yourself” and unpacks what that looks like in real life—from dating apps and modern love confusion, to emotional availability, intuition, and the shift from choosing from wounds to choosing from worth.

We also explore:
Why so many people feel stuck in repeating relationship patterns
The impact of modern dating culture and social media on connection
The difference between chemistry and emotional alignment
How to recognise your own unconscious patterns in love and life
The role of self-awareness, energy, and intuition in relationships
Why inner work changes everything about how we show up in love

This conversation is for anyone who has ever wondered why they keep ending up in the same situations—whether in relationships, friendships, or life choices—and is ready to understand themselves on a deeper level.

Why do we keep attracting the same relationships… repeating the same patterns… and choosing what feels familiar, even when it hurts?

How to Find Love ... with Amy Nobile Messing

Have you ever had that gut feeling… that quiet inner knowing… that whisper telling you something needs to change—but you ignored it?

What if that wasn’t “just a feeling”… what if it was your soul trying to get your attention?

In this deeply powerful episode of Hey Soul Sista, I sit down with breathwork facilitator, counsellor, educator and soulful guide Nicola Unite for a profound conversation about intuition, spiritual awakening, soul purpose, breathwork, meditation, ego, alignment, synchronicity, and what it truly means to come home to yourself.

After experiencing my own transformational healing journey through conscious connected breathwork with Nicola, I knew I needed to share her wisdom with you.

Together we explore:

✨ What your soul actually is—and why so many of us feel disconnected from it
✨ How to trust your intuition and recognise the signs your inner wisdom is speaking
✨ The difference between ego, fear, and your higher self
✨ Why so many women experience a spiritual awakening in midlife
✨ How breathwork, meditation, and stillness can reconnect you to your authentic self
✨ Understanding synchronicities, angel numbers, and intuitive nudges
✨ How to stop spiralling in fear-based stories and come back into alignment
✨ Why perimenopause, burnout, and major life transitions can be a sacred rite of passage
✨ How to listen when your soul is calling you toward something bigger

If you’ve been feeling burnt out, disconnected, stuck, overwhelmed… or quietly hearing the whisper that there’s more for you—this conversation is for you.

Your intuition is not random.
Your inner knowing is not “woo woo.”
And your soul may already know the next step.

The question is… are you listening?
