On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey

Prue is the founder of Earth Altering and an artist whose work sits at the intersection of nature, embodiment, and creative expression. Working at a large scale with flowers, natural materials, and the land itself, she creates earth altars, medicine wheels, and immersive installations for festivals and private events. Prue also creates and publishes images of herself nude in natural environments on OnlyFans.Prue came on the podcast to talk about the years leading up to her lupus diagnosis, her experience navigating the medical system with a complex autoimmune condition, and how chronic illness became the catalyst for a fundamental reorientation of her life. Our conversation traces the accumulation of stress, suppression, and overextension that preceded her body’s collapse - and the clarity that followed.In this episode, we explore living with autoimmune disease, uncertainty and misdiagnosis, burnout and identity loss, the limits and strengths of Western medicine, creativity as a healing force, nudity and censorship, sexuality and self-authorship, and how working directly with the earth - and the body - became both a personal practice and a public offering.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00:00 – The first signs something was wrong00:04:55 – Being dismissed & learning to persist00:12:30 – Ross River fever & immune collapse00:21:15 – Lupus diagnosis & kidney damage00:30:50 – Burnout, identity loss & ignoring the body00:41:05 – How creativity unlocks stored trauma00:54:50 – Letting go of control & learning to trust01:14:55 – Money, visibility & learning sexual boundaries01:22:35 – Meaning-making & self-trust🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey https://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women: https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Prue:https://www.earthaltering.com.au/prue.kake.co@gmail.com

Madeleine Monacelli is a holistic vocal coach and (incredible) singer who supports people to work with their voice as a tool for expression, regulation, and emotional processing. Her work draws on singing, sound, nervous system awareness, and embodied practice, with a particular focus on releasing perfectionism, self-monitoring, and fear held in the body.I invited Maddy onto the podcast to explore the relationship between voice, self-worth, and the pressure many women carry to perform rather than express. Our conversation moved fluidly between her work as a performer and facilitator, and each of our personal experiences of holding back, overthinking, and struggling to advocate for ourselves in moments that mattered.In this episode, we explore self-judgment, people-pleasing, and how these patterns shape pleasure and intimacy; the connection between the jaw, throat, and pelvis, singing as a pathway for emotional release, and what it looks like to use the voice - literally and relationally - with more honesty but less rigid control.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00:12 – Starting a podcast & being seen00:05:01 – When creativity turns into pressure00:13:55 – Perfectionism, performance & voice00:26:00 – Practicing in public & letting it be messy00:39:05 – The body, the voice & emotional holding00:51:05 – Emotional patterns & nervous system states01:01:00 – Sex, pleasure & pelvic floor tension01:11:05 – Trust, surrender & staying embodied01:18:18 – Integration & what actually changes🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey https://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women: https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Maddy:@maddymonacelli

Jordan Hackett is a sexuality educator and somatic sexologist who supports men to address shame, fear, and confusion around desire, addictive pornography use, and emotional suppression - all with an emphasis on radical self-responsibility.I invited Jordan onto the podcast to talk about his own sexual development and the experiences that shaped his work - from early exposure to explicit content, to his fear of doing harm, and eventually to the reclamation of his sexuality as something integrated, relational, and conscious.In this episode, we explore male sexual shame, porn use and compulsive patterns, desire and containment, the impact of secrecy on intimacy, anger and aggression, pleasure versus numbness, the difference between intensity and safety, men’s fear of their own power, group work versus one-on-one spaces, and what it means to develop a sexuality that is embodied, ethical, and alive rather than hidden or dissociated.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00:11 – Early sexual shame00:04:36 – The early imprint of porn00:13:18 – Why men need group spaces 00:16:36 – Porn & the nervous system 00:25:12 – Relapse, compassion & change 00:30:00 – Sexual energy as life force 00:38:56 – Desire, anger & polarity 00:44:55 – Control, trust & intimacy 00:54:35 – Witnessing, touch & healing 01:10:20 – Step-parenting & repair🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women:https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Jordan:https://www.jordanhackett.com/​​jordan@jordanhackett.com

Venerable Nimala is a Sri Lankan Buddhist monk and Kundalini practitioner who has spent over a decade in monastic life, teaching meditation, mindfulness, and Buddhist philosophy to people around the world. His work blends classical Buddhist teachings with embodied practices, offering a contemporary approach to spirituality.I met Ven. Nimala while travelling in Sri Lanka during a three-week Panchakarma retreat. He joined us weekly to teach breathwork, offer gong healings, and hold private audiences on Buddhist philosophy. Naturally, I used my private session with him to record this podcast.In this conversation, we explore why he chose monastic life, how Buddhism understands attachment without moralising desire, the role of busyness in regulating the mind, celibacy and intimacy, stress and control, shame and responsibility, chronic pain and suffering, karma, death, and what it means to apply ancient teachings in a modern world.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 – Why this convo almost didn’t get published04:13 – Choosing the monk’s path09:29 – Attachment, desire & letting things change14:43 – Sex, intimacy & the discipline of renunciation20:56 – Busyness, stress & working without suffering35:21 – Shame, pain, karma & finding peace🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women:https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Ven.

Ruby Shine is the founder of Sol Method and a nervous-system-first wellness practitioner. Her approach centres the nervous system as the foundation for relational safety, emotional resilience, and sustainable change, and is a living reflection from healing her own insomnia, C-PTSD and PCOS.Ruby is also my best friend of almost 23 years. This episode was recorded live as part of a four-part collaboration with Sol Method, and the familiarity between us shapes the conversation - candid, layered, and grounded in lived experience rather than theory. We also drink wine, which helps.In this episode, we explore anxious attachment, romantic fixation, situationships, trauma and nervous system activation, sex and chemistry, people-pleasing and self-abandonment, the difference between intensity and safety, and what it actually takes to move from survival-based relating into grounded, reciprocal partnership.My 9 year cycle article on Substack:https://paigeleacey.substack.com/p/nine-years-to-holy-hell-and-back⏱️ Timestamps:00:00:00 – Intro: the nine-year cycle00:12:23 – The White House era00:14:08 – The three-year-long situationship00:22:49 – When chemistry isn’t enough00:43:53 – Ayahuasca: fear & love00:48:44 – Cairns & “triathlon guy”01:05:03 – Chaos era as a plotline01:06:11 – Shower wine, Adele & showing the f*ck up🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women: https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Ruby:@rubyshine__⁠https://www.solmethod.com.au/

Julia is a pelvic health practitioner and holistic healer who supports women to release the emotions, limiting beliefs, and unprocessed experiences stored in their body - particularly in the pelvic bowl. Her work blends Arvigo techniques, holistic pelvic care, a degree in Anatomy and Physiology, and intuitive tracking to help women return to deeper connection with themselves.I worked with Julia for four months while trying to understand my mysterious bladder pain and our sessions ended up shifting far more than I ever expected.In this episode, we explore how emotions get trapped in the physical body, why suppressed rage often shows up as menstrual pain, what different areas of the pelvic floor reveal about fear and support, Julia’s own four birth experiences, and how our work together moved me from anxious attachment to loving my partner with less fear and limitation.⏱️ Timestamps:00:00 – Intro: pain, the body & why this conversation matters07:06 – Iridology, Reiki & the path to pelvic health13:11 – Emotional stress, hormones & the body19:31 – Teenage wounds & feeling safe to be seen24:27 – How unprocessed emotions get stored in the body29:31 – The pelvic bowl: fear, shame & lack of support31:12 – Bladder, fear & the mind–body connection31:44 – Relationships & changing my attachment patterns45:35 – Endometriosis, fibroids, PCOS & carrying rage54:08 – Birth, C-sections, home birth & shame🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women:https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Julia:https://www.thenurturedwomb.com/julia@thenurturedwomb.com@thenuturedwombJulia starts her next 4 x week Women's Awakening Journey in March 2026.

Where does your mind go when you remove all distractions and comforts for ten days straight?In this solo episode, I break down my experience of a 10-day Vipassana - the structure, the mental unraveling, the physical intensity, and the unexpected anxiety that surfaced around friendship and worthiness.

Where is the line between empathy and self-erasure?I sat down with my dear friend Alys Crocker - actress, yoga teacher, and one of the most emotionally resilient humans I know - to talk about something we both know too well: being the person who absorbs everyone’s feelings in the room.Alys is gifted - she can read energy, mediate chaos, and even find compassion for the villain. But, like many of us, she learned the hard way that you can’t control your way to safety. In this episode we dive into the emotional cost of being the fixer, the feeler, and the one who takes on everything.🎙️ You’ll hear about:🩷 Why being indecisive might actually be your superpower🩷 The sun and moon dynamic in relationships🩷 How childhood survival mechanisms shape the way we navigate our careers🩷 The difference between controlling people’s emotions and being emotionally available🩷 Rejection, competition, and everyone thinking they can do it🩷 What it takes to play a villain with compassion (and how that skill translates to real life)🩷 How you can actually help your loved ones in a crisis⏱️ Timestamps:00:00:00 – Why interview your friends00:05:26 – Podcasting is the new acting00:14:03 – The sun and moon dynamic00:26:13 – Alys won’t date actors00:38:45 – Mediating other people's feelings00:52:17 – The toxic side of “holding space”01:06:33 – Black and white thinkers01:09:10 – Playing villains with compassion01:12:23 – Helped, heard, or hugged?🌸 If this episode made you question how you show up for the people you love (or how tightly you're gripping the reins), hit SUBSCRIBE and drop your favorite moment in the comments below.🔗 Get in touch with me:🎬 YouTube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey🎧 Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Apple: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Come be part of a community of smart, self-aware, wisdom seeking women:https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__ ✨ TikTok: @samepaige__🔗 Get in touch with Alys Crocker:@alyscrocker

For most people, survival is about playing it safe. For Katie Rydge, it's not.It’s about stripping life back to only what's real - in solitude, silence, with only instinct as your guide.Katie is a wilderness survivalist who's spent over 20 years mastering primitive skills, guiding rites of passage, and living off the land. She's ridden horses through remote Australian cattle stations, led expeditions into Aboriginal communities in Arnhem Land, and competed on Season 12 of ALONE - landing herself as second runner up.But her real work goes deeper than bush survival. Katie guides women back to themselves through nature - weaving earth-based practice with something more primal, more spiritual, more tantric.Paige and Katie's conversation goes beneath the surface - into sex, nature, hunting, birth, and consciousness - to question what it actually means to feel alive.🎙️ You'll hear about:🩷 Vision quests and the culture of "push & achieve"🩷 Traditional bow hunting vs. modern weapons🩷 Sexual awakening as self-discovery🩷 What tantra really means beyond clichés🩷 An unforgettable home birth experience🩷 Eros, energy flow, and breaking inner dams🩷 Are we living in a simulation?⏱️ Timestamps00:01:28 – Panchakarma detox experience00:16:40 – First vision quest00:31:01 – Australian plant medicine00:33:40 – Traditional hunting00:46:49 – Women, masculinity & health00:52:50 – Sexual awakening00:56:26 – What Tantra really is01:01:01 – Home birth story01:21:48 – Eros and breaking down inner dams01:28:00 – Finding your way to feel emotions01:43:02 – The nature of reality🌸 If this conversation resonated with you, hit SUBSCRIBE and SHARE the insight that stuck with you most below.Get in touch with Paige:🎧 Listen on Spotify: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/4sVFkvFcj3DW1wuVZuGd4U?si=af98abe607fb4c1a🍎 Listen on Apple Podcasts: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/on-the-same-paige-with-paige-leacey/id1573526370💌 Want tips on intimacy, connection & the human experience?https://paigeleacey.substack.com📸 Instagram: @samepaige__✨ TikTok: @samepaige__Get in touch with Katie:@katie_rydge@naturephilosophywww.katierydge.com

Not all medicine comes in a bottle. Some comes from deep listening.Sam Kankanamge is a leading voice in holistic health, known internationally for weaving 5,000-year-old Sri Lankan healing wisdom with modern science.

Yoga isn’t just a movement practice… It's a philosophy. Some practitioners even believe it’s a direct portal to meet with God. Whether you believe that’s a God in the sky, the God of the natural world or the God within you.Lance Schuler is a legend in the global yoga community, often referred to as the “Godfather” of yoga in Australia, with over 40 years experience teaching. From martial arts to breathwork and meditation, from New Zealand to China and Europe, he created his own system, Integrated South Pacific Yoga Academy, blending ancient traditions with modern science. He works with his wife Dr Susan Famularo to help people live more intentionally, from the way they breathe to what they eat. More than that, at 70 years old, Lance has the energy, strength and charisma of a 30 year old. In this day and age, that’s a miracle.In this episode, Paige interviews Lance on his stunning property in Byron Bay, hoping to siphon as much wisdom as she can.🎙️ They dive into:🩷 The nervous system hype – and what’s missing🩷 Lessons from teaching yoga inside a men’s prison🩷 Getting out of comfort without going to extremes🩷 What exploring your own darkness really means🩷 The truth about making long-term love work🩷 Judo, discipline, and raising resilient kids🩷 What awaits us on the other side⏱️ Timestamps00:00:00 – The nervous system00:09:45 – Teaching yoga to criminals00:14:54 – Masculinity00:17:14 – Do we need discomfort to grow?00:19:11 – Going against the flow of life00:24:33 – Love, devotion, and facing your shadows00:28:32 – Marriage, resilience, and connection00:40:03 – Breath, the body, and fear00:45:52 – Vulnerability and self-sabotage00:49:27 – From childhood discipline to digital life01:01:23 – COVID, AI, and finding meaning01:07:23 – Tech’s impact on health and youth01:13:43 – What happens when we die?🌸 If today’s episode opened your mind or made you breathe a little deeper, hit SUBSCRIBE and SHARE.Get in touch with Paige:💌 Sign up for my Substack: https://paigeleacey.substack.com/subscribe📸 Insta: @samepaige__✨ TikTok: @samepaige__Get in touch with Lance:https://www.inspyayoga.com/

You can find part one:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NM65ngNH8U&t=548sTamara also gets real about the spiritual delusion of “trust” without self-responsibility, her PTSD recovery, the inner child’s role in dating, and why fantasy isn't a viable financial plan (or a relationship one).This one’s raw, wise, and wildly useful if you're trying to make sense of your patterns — in love, money, or your nervous system.Connect with Tamara:Instagram:⁠ @tamarathebraveSubstack: https://substack.com/@wildlightreckoningFree copy of The WildLight Manifesto: https://www.tamarathebrave.com/join-t...Mentorship: tamara@tamarathebrave.comConnect with me:🎥 Watch on Youtube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey⁠💌 Sign up for my newsletter:⁠https://paigeleacey.substack.com/subscribe⁠📸  Connect with me on Insta: @samepaige__Three new episodes a month — subscribe for more! 💖

"After cuddle party training, I had a clean ‘no’ in my back pocket."Hello, my loves. In this episode, I sit down with Tamara the Brave — bodyworker, mentor, and one of the most grounded women I’ve met. She speaks from the earth up. And this conversation is exactly that: rooted and real.Tamara shares what menopause has been teaching her. We talk about radical self-responsibility, the cost of self-abandonment, and how most of us weren’t taught to rest — we were taught to burn out. We also get stuck into:- My unhinged moment with a parking officer- The wisdom of cuddle parties- The stuff women in their 20s, 30s and 40s need know about menopause- Leaving the corporate world with a fried nervous system- The danger of chasing peak experiences- Getting honest about the difference between rest and collapseThis episode might not give you the answers — but it’ll inspire you to stop outsourcing them. It'll remind you to slow down, give you a good idea of what to start taking care of now while you're full of oestrogen, and offer one woman’s account of finding sovereignty.Connect with Tamara:Instagram:⁠ @tamarathebraveSubstack: https://substack.com/@wildlightreckoningFree copy of The WildLight Manifesto: https://www.tamarathebrave.com/join-the-listMentorship: tamara@tamarathebrave.comConnect with me:🎥 Watch on Youtube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leacey⁠https://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey⁠⁠⁠⁠💌 Sign up for my newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠https://paigeleacey.substack.com/subscribe⁠⁠📸  Connect with me on Insta: @samepaige__Three new episodes a month — subscribe for more! 💖

In this episode, I sit down with Teddi Emerald — transformational coach, crypto educator, and owner of Byron Bay’s beloved vintage store, Trash — to explore the wild intersections between trauma, spirituality, money, pleasure, and the feminine body.Teddi opens up about her childhood with a mentally ill parent, her ten years inside a religious cult, the journey that led her to become a practitioner of EFT Tapping and Matrix Reimprinting, and the recent situationship that made her a student of her own teachings all over again.We get stuck into:– Healing culture and the traps of “spirituality”– When relationships feel right but are absolutely wrong– The wisdom your seggsual fantasies hold– The link between financial sovereignty and self-worth– What success really means when you’ve unhooked from the matrixThis conversation bends genres — it’s part tea-spill, part belief-system rewiring, and part permission slip to take up all the space with your brilliance, bigness, and power.Connect with Teddi:Instagram:⁠ @teddi.emeraldHer Crypto Course, Crypto Queen: https://teddi-emerald-s-school.teachable.com/p/crypto-queenBook a transformational coaching session: https://calendly.com/tvonsivers/personal-transformation-sessionConnect with me:🎥 Watch on Youtube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey⁠💌 Sign up for my newsletter:⁠https://paigeleacey.substack.com/subscribe⁠📸  Connect with me on Insta: @samepaige__Three new episodes a month — subscribe for more! 💖

In this live-recorded episode, I sit down with Ruby Shine to explore how our earliest environments — even the womb — can leave a lasting imprint on the body.Ruby reflects on her journey through early parentification, relentless anxiety, C-PTSD, insomnia, and PCOS with her signature no-filter style. It’s raw, funny, and full of the kind of honesty that makes you laugh and then immediately reflect on your own life.We recorded this one live at Sol Method — Ruby’s somatic yoga studio in Byron Bay — in front of a room full of people who know her as a teacher, guide, and multi-entrepreneur. It takes real guts to speak this openly in front of your own community. And she did not hold back.We get into:- Ruby’s experience of complex trauma showing up as acne, insomnia, and PCOS- How her mother’s pregnancy and early childhood shaped her nervous system- The long road to forgiveness, and learning to hold multiple truths at once- Why overachieving became her coping mechanism — and how she began to unravel it- What it looked like for her to stop becoming her feelings, and start actually feeling themIf you’re curious about the threads between body, biography, and belief; if you live with a sensitive system, an invisible illness, or the urge to push through when you probably need to pause — or if you just love a conversation that’s vulnerable, girlie, and deeply human — this one’s for you.Connect with Ruby:Instagram:⁠ @rubyshine__⁠Her Substack, The Awakened Woman:https://theawakenedwoman.substack.com/⁠Her yoga studio (in-person and soon-to-be online), Sol Method:https://www.solmethod.com.au/Connect with me:🎥 Watch on Youtube: On The Same Paige with Paige Leaceyhttps://www.youtube.com/@PaigeLeacey💌 Sign up for my newsletter:https://paigeleacey.substack.com/subscribe📸  Connect with me on Insta:@samepaige__Three new episodes a month — subscribe for more! 💖
