E85 - Jeanne Sullivan - Be the Soul Mate You Want to Attract
Tuesday Jan 17, 2023
Tuesday Jan 17, 2023
Jeanne Sullivan stopped putting others first, and STARTED creating her living out loud and on purpose when she hit her romantic bottom--after a string of men who held her back and one couldn't be her partner-- she realized she needed help.
She learnt about law of attraction and realized she had always been an amazing manifester. The trouble was, she had focused for years on what she didn't want, which conjured chaos. What she had to learn was to release resistance and focused on what she wanted?
That shift took a lot of work and many thousands of dollars in coaches and relationship masters to figure out why she was still dimming her light for love
For two years, she overhauled her life, letting go of her resistance to love, her feelings of not being enough and the people who did not nurture her. She also decided that being 40-something was an asset, because it made her wise.
As her confidence, self-worth and vibration rose, the men she called in improved. However, they still weren’t; quite right; they were mostly cubs looking for cougars. When she turned her marketing skills on herself, she realized her "personal brand" online was out of alignment with her soul mate vision. She was playing it way too safe, presenting as vanilla instead of rocky road!
After deciding to fly her freak flag online and putting herself out there in a confident and authentic way--and got energetically aligned with her soul mate vision. She rewrote her profile and posted it, feeling the shift to her core.
The very next morning, several men who shared the similar values and goals contacted her, including her now husband
The moral to her story is, when you learn how to get aligned, the universe takes your cosmic order and delivers it to you!
She is an author of the book “Be the Soul Mate You Want to Attract” and has appeared on ABC7, NBC, Today FM, Virgin Media TV and many more…

E80 - Maria Riegger - Positive Parenting through Astrology
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
Tuesday Dec 13, 2022
This week's guest is a parenting expert, astrologer, and author (her day job is banking attorney). She writes positive parenting books based on astrology in order to help parents have the best, strongest relationship possible with their children.
She offers an unique perspective on astrology and positive parenting, including reparenting as an adult in order to better parent our children.
She was a single Mom for a few years (now remarried). And her divorce prompted a review of her life and she realized that she needed to heal from childhood trauma, including the death of her father and narcissistic abuse. She began using astrology, including the study of the birth chart, to become a better parent and she has written two parenting books and publish regular astrology and parenting content on my YouTube channel
One of her main tenets is that parents should respect children's intrinsic natures rather than pressure children to be how the parents want. I call this tendency parenting from a place of ego, since it's more about fulfilling the parents’, ego needs rather than the child's soul needs.

E79 - Ruth Renae - Childhood Trauma and How To Heal
Tuesday Dec 06, 2022
Tuesday Dec 06, 2022
This week’s guest is a certified clinical hypnotherapist.
She discovered that 100% of my 1:1 client’s have found the seed of their adult issues in childhood trauma, but mostly simple misconceptions they made as children.
So, she thought if this is the case why not learn how to help children see their thoughts clearly, ask the right questions and take advantage of this early stage of development to instil positive suggestions that will set them up for success in the future.
It all starts by learning about yourself and doing the healing work on your own.
(You know, the whole 'put your oxygen mask on first and then help your child' analogy.)
