On the Practical Magic Podcast the floor is open to Jade Sullivan. Jade is a mama of twins plus one and wife, a Black Activist & writer and creative entrepreneur. Jade wrote an incredibly powerful article recently for Mother Pukka on the silence of white people on social media in the wake of the George Floyd murder, calling out how deafening it has been to have white voices stay silent when the Black community have been shouting about systemic racism for so long. In the show today, Jade is here to share more about to talk more in depth about the post she shared. She covers a wide range of topics from: Her own experiences with systemic racism The stereotype of the Angry Black Woman, and how that affects the voices of so many Black women to be surpressed How the silence of white influencers was deafening in the wake of George Floyd's death, and how we all have the position and collateral to do better How the Black women are 5 x more likely to die in childbirth due to racism How Black people are 4 x more likely to die from COVID-19 than white people Why the education system needs to teach about a more diverse range of cultures and heritage of all nations How the world's map is skewed I am so incredibly grateful to Jade for coming onto the show to share her voice on the show.

Creativity As an Act of Self Care with Vix Harris

A couple of weeks back I shared how we can turn our experiences of dissatisfaction into strengths, after my unfortunate run in with an uncomfortable non-wired bra! This got me to thinking about just what satisfaction is in our BIG, BOLD BEAUTIFUL lives. On the show today I explore how we can expand beyond just putting up with our lot, and instead step into a life lived with full satisfaction. In the show I share:   ⚡️ Just what it is to live a BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL life in satisfaction, and why it's more about living in the present moment that worrying about what you do or don't have. ⚡️ Satisfaction to feel satiated and just how it can be to feel fullness and contentment in all areas of your BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL life. ⚡️ Why satisfaction is about fully embracing those opportunities you take yourself forward with, and how to own your accomplishments and growth spaces. ⚡️ Satisfaction and fulfilling your desires - and how doing something that has been driven by a deep sense of calling and purpose leads to satisfaction of no dream left unlived. ⚡️ Where you seize the call to arms to make the world a fairer and better place by tuning into where you are not satisfied, and how passion can fuel change.   Come and step into  FULL EXPANSION as you journey with me over the next seven months to build your BIG, BOLD BEAUTIFUL dreams from the ground up with THE EXPANSION ACADEMY. Doors to the ACADEMY will soon be closed for applications, so don't miss out on moving beyond your limitations and into FULL SATISFACTION. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE EXPANSION ACADEMY

Quantum Leaping with Suzy Ashworth

What are you putting up with in your life right now that is causing you discomfort and dissatisfaction? Taking the lead for being open to more comfort in my life as we come out of lockdown, I ordered the ultimate comfort support - a non-wired bra. Game changer, or so I thought. Yes life without unnecessary wires is something to be cherished, but what I quickly noticed was that discomfort had been replaced by some bad design detailing on the bra that left me OBSESSING about it for days.   This got me to thinking about the levels of dissatisfaction we're putting up with, that lockdown is highlighting to us - the itches that need scratching - and making sure we do something about them now, before the doors re-open and we use the busyness of life to distract us.   On the show today, I'm sharing how you can turn your discomfort into a strength. One that you can learn from and do something about, before that seemingly small discomfort turns into an overwhelming burden.   You can also learn more about what you are going to be taking as learning from lockdown with my FREE ONLINE MASTERCLASS taking place next Wednesday 27 May. Bag your seat and join me for an hour from 7:30pm BST. SIGN UP FOR THE FREE LIFE AFTER LOCKDOWN MASTERCLASS >>>

Turning Dissatisfaction into Strength

In this episode i talk with the Gorgeous, Effervescent Donna Easton, the founder of LifeShine, which enables people of all ages to find a way to access parts of themselves that were locked away. In early 2019 Donna attended a dance and drama class with her then 3 year old daughter, she was struck by the rigidness of the lesson with little outlet for self-expression. Where was the freedom to be who you want to be, to dream, to play, to laugh? It was completely absent.  With first hand childhood experience of how confidence, resilience, mindfulness and an overarching healthy sense of self-worth result from play without an agenda, Donna got to work on writing the LifeShine programme to reinforce the value of play-not just for children but for the adults who care for them; Donna's mission is to help people recognise their worth, be confident in who they are, to have a few tools in their emotional toolkit to prevent mental health issues and enable them to have the time of their lives whilst doing it. We discuss: Embracing your slippery slug! Dancing & singing for wellbeing Living your true self Reconnecting with who you are Remembering our inner child Creativity arising from Covid-19 Let's all make a conscious effort to access our inner child and start getting down with the essence of who we are!

Creating Shine in Your Life with Donna Easton

How do you start your mornings?  Are you a pre-wee scroller heading over to Insta or Facebook to check in on what you might have missed over night? Do you dive headfirst into your emails before you've had chance to properly work out who you even are today? Maybe you catch up on the news before you've stepped foot out of bed.  How we start the day sets the tone for each and every day. The space we have each morning as we open our eyes is the most pliable time which creates the emotional and energetic preset for your day ahead. Waking up to something that's going to kick your fight or flight reactors into play is creating a day that starts with cortisol and adrenaline firing through your system, and builds up from that point on. Especially in these times of Coronavirus and lockdown, we are more susceptible to fear triggers from everywhere around us, and the more our fear triggers are activated, the more accumulate throughout the day and into your sleep. This causes something called allostatic load, which if left too long to build up causes wear and tear on the body and mind. Having morning practices which allow you to create your day ahead from a place of breath and centre, is an incredible resource to help you feel calm, empowered and able to set the day in the way you need. On the show I'm sharing some simple ways you can create a magical morning routine which will leave you feeling both EXPANSIVE and EMPOWERED and is good for your mental, emotional, spiritual, creative and physical health.  Enjoy creating space for yourself each day. Creating a magical morning routine is taken from the EXPANSIVE EMPOWERMENT SESSIONS. These are seven powerful online mini courses to bring you calm in chaos. Dial up your confidence, fire up your energy and feel back in control. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE EXPANSIVE EMPOWERMENT SESSIONS >>

How to Create a Magical Morning Routine

In lockdown life we have become aware of the duality of how we as humans give or take in nature and win our societies: Hoarding vs. sharing Going out vs. staying in Not distancing vs. distancing Self vs. society How we show up in our humanness at this time is a reflection of our relationship to the world. In time of lockdown nature is righting herself. With no planes in the sky, less heavy industrial activity and not so many cars on the road, she is coming back to homeostasis. It is shining light on some really truly uncomfortable truths that were always there, but that in light of COVID we can no longer ignore. Being a human in society and the spiritual balance of receiving and sharing so in this special Practical Magic & Soul Pod Party Podcast collaboration with me and Karmic Alchemist Matt Taylor we discuss: How to live inharmony and balance we must go beyond our nature and strike more than taking from our natural resource well. How to live within the Law of Nature Why the natural state of abundance if so surrender and trust; to give more and share more Living society in its highest potential and how this restores balance in the cosmic system Matt shares more about the Law of Development, and how this current time is here to remove negativity and restore rebalance How we can share more from a place of non-attachment and no need for recognition. You can join Matt and I for our online workshop ‘Making a Space for a Miracle’ on Thursday 14 May at 7:30pm BST / 8:30pm CET BOOK NOW: https://sowl.co/bt81SZ

The Uncomfortable Act of Sharing with Kate Taylor & Matt Taylor

At the beginning of lockdown I was hosting some free online sessions where I would pull a Practical Magic card for the gathered group, and the same card kept coming up again and again; it was the SPACE card.  It's funny because at first people didn't trust what they saw 'It's just a blank card, there's nothing on it, are you sure that's supposed to be in the deck? ' When I asked them to feel into what the space card may be bringing up for them the words tumbled out: I need space I crave space This is what I've been asking for for so long I've been getting really curious about the lessons from lockdown and what we will be taking from them before the restrictions are lifted, and the resounding feedback, is that you don't want to lose the space this time has given you to pause, to reflect, to be rather than to do. In this week's Practical Magic podcast episode I am sharing the importance of space, and how we can harness it, what we can learn about it in lockdown. Also, how it gives us the opportunity to connect to a life on our terms, and how we want to create a better world as a result of having this time for reflection. It's also the most ideal time to get EXPANSIVE within space, as space has no limitations. Find out more about how with the EXPANSIVE EMPOWERMENT SESSIONS here.

Harnessing the Power of Space in Lockdown

We're going on an exploration of the energy centres, otherwise known as chakras, in the Practical Magic Podcast today. At this time when we've been feeling overwhelmed and disconnected, it's time to connect back into the wisdom of our body to tune into what's not feeling good from an emotional, physical, mental and spiritual point of view. Chakras are energy wheels that run through the body, and connect to what's going on in our body's, in our lives, and all around us. When they are out of whack, we are out of whack. So on the show I take you through each of the seven main chakras in the body, what they relate to, how you can tell if you're off in each of the chakras. Understanding what's going on from an energetic point of view has been the thing which has brought me home to my life, my body and my BIG, BOLD, BEAUTIFUL self again and again and again, so I am honoured to share this information with you. I am also over the moon to be sharing a new online offering with you; the EXPANSIVE EMPOWERMENT SESSIONS are seven online courses taking you through each of the chakras to help you relight your energy, your motivation and your confidence. You can find out more, and buy any of the seven courses individually, or the full programme here.

What the flip are chakras anyway?

How are you managing yourself through this huge period of change which we have had thrust upon us with COVID-19? Likelihood is that you’re navigating your way through each day, and trying to find a way to create some ‘new normal’ Even though we are all in this, each one of us has a different way of responding and reacting to this new normal whilst collectively grieving for our old daily lives, our previous sense of identity, and the plans we had made before this all happened. So on the show today, I’m sharing how we navigate our way through change, and how we can use the 'Kübler Ross Change Curve' to see where we’re at, and where we might jump around on, to get some sense of awareness and grounding as we move forward. On the show I discuss the stages, and what might be showing up for you in each, and how you can move your way through them. What I do know is that our lives will never be the same again, but we will come out of this period of time, and we will adapt to change, so let's keep our energy expansive and keep creating to empower our BIG,BOLD,BEAUTIFUL lives. Throughout this time I am offering some online workshops, Qoya classes and creating content to help you as we move forwards, so make sure you’re signed up to my mailing list so that you can receive information and dates directly to your inbox.
