These heartfelt, insightful interviews offer a fresh perspective on Kim’s philosophy, lived wisdom and unwavering belief in women rising, at every stage of life. The Present Day Wise Woman Podcast with Jennifer Jefferies Midlife isn’t a cloak of invisibility and in this inspiring episode, Kim Morrison calls absolute BS on the tired narrative that women fade as they age. Joining her dear friend and fellow truth teller Jennifer Jeffries, Kim shares why she has never subscribed to the idea of becoming “invisible,” and how deep respect for older women, intentional rituals, mindset, and self-care are the foundations of vitality and confidence. Together, Kim and Jennifer explore reframing ageing, redefining beauty, and stepping fully into being seen without apology. They speak candidly about rejecting limiting societal beliefs, embracing self-worth and the sparkle that comes from living authentically. This is a raw, real, joy-filled conversation between two wise women and great mates — and one you’ll absolutely love Links to follow: Website: https://jenniferjefferies.com/pdww-podcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepresentdaywisewoman/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jennifer.jefferies.10   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

It has never just been a business. It has always been a living, breathing extension of who I am, who we are, our values, our family, our belief in self love is the daily practice, not the destination. The relationship we share, as women, as leaders, as a mum and daughter, it is a foundation. It is everything I have ever created. We have had hard conversations, big dreams, bold visions, and moments where we have just had to trust each other deeply. That is the bond of me and my daughter’s strength, and it’s the energy that flows into every product, every program, every intention we set. This is not a year to play small. This is a year to move with real integrity and purpose. The horse represents freedom, momentum, courage, stamina, and forward movement. It is about trusting your instincts, backing yourself and having the bravery to move when your soul whispers now. When we align heart, body, and mind and commit fully, we create incredible momentum. Choosing a word for the year gives your nervous system clarity, your mind direction, and your heart permission to move forward with intention. Let it choose you and live it. Live it in your rituals, your choices, your boundaries, and your self talk. Our vision is to support you to feel empowered in your body, confident in your choices and deeply connected to your heart and self worth. Uncommon Leadership isn’t just a program, it’s a 12 month journey of self responsibility, clarity, courage, and conscious leadership. This program is for those who know they are here to make a difference. Opportunities do not sit around and wait for someday. Here is an invitation to let 2026 be the year you say yes to yourself. I choose to move forward with clarity, courage and self love. Imagine your year unfolding step by step, choice by choice guided by your word, supported by your body and led by your heart.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this reflective end of year episode, Kim and Tayla join Marcus Pearce to discuss their evolving business partnership, generational perspectives on self-love and the unique dynamics of working together as mother and daughter. They explore how age, experience, and energy influence leadership, marketing and client relationships within their wellness business, Twenty8. Kim shares what it has been like welcoming Tayla into the family business and witnessing her resilience and career evolution, while Tayla reflects on her journey from dance and fitness into business and personal growth. Together, they speak openly about motivation, communication, and the balance required to build a meaningful legacy. The conversation also dives into what self-love truly means from self-respect and healthy decision making to navigating burnout, change and life transitions. Honest, warm and inspiring, this episode is a powerful reminder of the value of resilience, growth and creating a self-care lifestyle that supports both personal and professional fulfilment. Tayla’s definition of Self Love is: Self love means you have self respect and what that looks feels and sounds like for you. Her favourite quote is: If 2025 was about shedding, 2026 is about soaring! Kim’s definition of Self Love is: Self love is the honouring and the return to self. Her favourite quote is: If there is light in the soul, there is beauty in the person. If there is beauty in the person, there is harmony in the home. If there is harmony in the home, there is order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there is peace in this world. Quotes: I have always thought of this as a family business. LFG-which is let’s freaking go. 2025 has been quite a personally challenging year, I would say lots of highs and lows. I was quite comfortable. And I was just like, you know what? There is no growth in this. I need something, I need something better. It didn’t even feel like it had to be a decision. It just felt like a natural calling. I was really happy and honoured that one, Mum offered me the position and two that we could create this beautiful legacy together. There was a symbolic relationship between me wanting it and company needing it. Watching her really grow through something that had really shattered her world was very inspirational. I started watching her evolve as a businesswoman. It is not just about making money, it is not just about having a job, it is actually really about making a difference. We are not a family that sits back. I need to constantly be stimulated and be doing something. People don’t care, and I say this with love, but they don’t care what you are going through. This woman has saved my soul. It is not about being the superhero, it is about actually allowing yourself to grow with the support and grace of those around you who truly do love support and care for you. There is no BS with us. There is also the softness and the beauty. She has been my greatest mirror, my greatest coach and my greatest support. It feels really wholesome. It feels so right. Twenty8 is not just about skin care and aromatherapy. It is about creating that self-care lifestyle. I have always said that to have self love means you have self respect. If I do something that goes against that, I feel like I am disrespecting myself. You can still love yourself and still want to change some things about yourself. At my age here and now, I truly do believe self love is truthfully the practice of returning home to oneself. Aging badly is the relentless pursuit of comfort. You are either on the train of life or you are watching it go by. Aging is a gift denied to many. I couldn’t live with the downside of letting it go. You are allowed to change. You don’t have to stay as you are. Your self love journey will look different at every age. I would love everyone to feel that spark in themselves.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this Christmas episode of the Self Love Podcast, Kim shares a compassionate message for anyone navigating mixed emotions during the holiday season. She acknowledges that while Christmas can bring joy, it can also stir up grief, loss, or loneliness and all feelings are welcome. Kim guides you through a gentle Christmas themed essential oil ritual using frankincense, lavender, orange, sandalwood and rose to support grounding, calm, and heart healing. She reminds us that the true spirit of Christmas is about authenticity, not perfection, and offers reassurance of their inherent worth and resilience. A warm, grounding episode inviting you to slow down, soften, and honour yourself this Christmas. All the essential oils mentioned in this show can be found at www.twenty8.com.

Links to follow: Website: https://twenty8.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twenty.8.essential/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twenty8essentials Quotes: At this time of year, there is often a quiet assumption. Every year I feel that people believe everyone should feel joyful, connected, celebratory, and full. For some, the season is filled with laughter, family gatherings, shared meals and traditions and for other it carries grief, loss, change and empty chair. If this Christmas feels tender to you. You are not broken, behind or alone. Sometimes the bravest thing we can do at a time like this is to simply keep our hearts open in the midst of change. Christmas invites us into connection, not just with others, but most importantly with ourselves. Place one drop of essential oils into your palms and then rub them together, place over your heart and belly and take three deep breaths. Use frankincense for peace, perspective, and spiritual connection. Lavender to calm the nervous system. Orange for lightness and joy. Sandalwood for grounding, safety and deep presence and rose, if you need pure love and heart healing. Christmas isn’t just about perfection. This season isn’t asking you to be more. It is inviting you to be true. Love the people you have, remember those you miss, celebrate what is growing and honour you beautiful soul and the incredible resilience that lives within you.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this deeply nourishing conversation, Kim welcomes Ruth Hull, a former investment banker turned reflexologist, homeopath, and author of Drowning Lifeguards. Ruth shares her remarkable journey from high pressure corporate life to natural therapies, shaped by her own experience with chronic fatigue and burnout. Together, Kim and Ruth explore the body’s subtle language, the emotional roots of fatigue, and how modalities such as reflexology, homeopathy, essential oils, and self-reflection can support healing. They discuss the integration of conventional and alternative medicine, the unique traits of high-achieving individuals prone to burnout, and why self-love is not a destination, but a daily, living practice. This episode is a powerful reminder that illness can be an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with the wisdom of the body, mind and soul. About Ruth Hull: Trained as a homoeopathic doctor, Ruth Hull is a counsellor, integrative health consultant and author who has spent more than twenty-five years helping people navigate fatigue, burnout and chronic exhaustion. With master’s degrees in counselling and health science, she brings a gentle and grounded approach to healing, weaving together trauma informed therapy, natural health and practical, realistic support. Her work centres on helping people understand their bodies, reconnect with themselves and rebuild their energy in ways that feel achievable and sustainable. She is the author of five widely used health science textbooks, including three on anatomy and physiology, and her new book Drowning Lifeguards offers a practical and compassionate guide for anyone feeling overwhelmed or depleted. Through both her writing and her clinical work she aims to make healing feel less overwhelming and more human. Her definition of Self Love is: Self Love is like a relationship. It’s what you do. It’s the actions you do. If you think of a really good relationship, it us about always being there for that person. So always being there for yourself, supporting yourself, standing up for yourself. Accepting yourself just as you are. Her favourite quote is – Illness is an opportunity for growth and transformation, whilst recovery is just a return to the obsolete status quo.

That is when I started to really learn what healing is really about. I wrote my book, Drowning Lifeguards, which is the book I wish I had had when I was struggling so much. We are not just physical beings. We are energetic beings. We are made up of energy and energy needs to flow. Reflexology will one day be proven through science but to me it is really about the flow of energy. The body never lies. The physical body is really just an expression of something much deeper, like our emotions, our spirit, our soul and our mental health. I think what we are learning is unlearning that is we are learning to remove those barriers that we have grown up with. I think we see life through spectacles and we have lots of spectacles that are put on us from our parents, our teachers, who are mean to us, from the kids in the playground. We put all these little glasses on and they stop us seeing life as it is and they stop us connecting with deeper things. I very much believe, especially with essentials oils. We have to remove our logical mind. A lot of the healing happens through the smell and memories If we can get our logical mind out the way and let the body speak that is when we will find what is good for us. If you can stop listening to all the noise outside and actually just get quiet and find what feels good. The quieter we get, the more we hear. The more you just allow yourself to be with yourself, the more you will be able to listen to your body. People with fatigue and burnout are busy, busy, busy people. They are not listening to themselves. If they were to just stop and start listening to what they really need, that is when the healing takes place. No one really knows yet how homeopathy works but there is so much clinical evidence. Like treats like. Vaccination is a personal choice. There is no right or wrong way. If we believe something to be truly safe or ok, then our body potentially can respond in a safe and good way. I think allopathic medicine shines in emergency medicine and homeopathy shines in chronic disease. I think we can work together. In a consultation we look at the whole person, we ask a lot of questions about their background and childhood. We ask about stress and diet. We put everything together and find a remedy that will suit that whole person. Drowning Lifeguards is for the people who look after other people and put themselves last until they are drowning and have no energy to swim. What is the fatigue protecting you from. I put in everything I have learned along the way and everything I try to work through with my client. Illness in our body is our soul trying to tell us something. If we listen, we change, transform and grow.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

It is a shift in how we live, how we lead, and how we listen. The snake is the wise one. It doesn’t rush, it doesn’t seek approval, it sheds what no longer fits. The year of the snake has invited us into deep inner work. Listening to our intuition, releasing outdated identities, and honouring the wisdom stored in the body. Many of us have been asked to let go this year, not because we have failed, but because we have evolved. The snake whispers, you don’t need to force clarity, you just need to trust it. Have you been listening to yourself? Favourite oils for releasing and to tap into the power of my own intuition include Frankincense, Myrrh, Sandalwood, and Vetiver. I release what no longer serves. I trust my inner knowing. I honour the wisdom within. The fire horse moves boldly forward. Where the snake asked you to reflect, the Fire Horse asks will you act? I think 2026 is about courage, action, visibility, and leadership through embodiment and living your truth out loud. Oils that activate horse energy include ginger, sweet orange, cedarwood and cinnamon. I move forward with courage, my energy is focused and grounded, I lead with heart not force. A blend that bridges the two would be frankincense, sandalwood, ginger and orange. I act from wisdom, not fear. I trust my timing, and I honour both stillness and momentum. The snake prepared you. The fire horse activates you. You are not here to dim your fire. We invite you to move wisely, courageously and consciously. This is about being consciously aware of calm power.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this powerful conversation, Kim Morrison sits down with Millie Thomas, an eating disorder recovery coach, to share Millie’s raw and deeply personal story of surviving and fully recovering from a 15 year battle with anorexia nervosa. Millie takes us back to her teenage years in Auckland, where perfectionism, control, and pressure became fertile ground for the illness. Despite academic achievement and outward success, she describes the inner torment, the escalating compulsions, and the heartbreaking moment at 27 when her doctor asked her to decide whether she wanted to live or die. A turning point came through unconventional but deeply human support including work with Silky, an NLP practitioner, who helped Millie reframe the disorder as a set of changeable behaviours and begin the courageous climb back to life. Kim and Millie explore the reality that eating disorders are biopsychosocial illnesses that infiltrate every corner of a person’s world and profoundly affect families too. Millie speaks candidly about the impact on her parents and brother, the role of hope, and why recovery requires compassion and boundaries. Together they unpack how the eating disorder “voice” distorts language and meaning, why “just eat” is not only unhelpful but misunderstands the terror response, and how the recovery journey can feel chaotic while actually being a reclaiming of control. Millie also shares how her lived experience fuelled her mission: moving to the Sunshine Coast, contributing to broader support pathways (including involvement in residential recovery approaches), and building her private practice HealED, supporting clients worldwide. The episode closes with practical insight for carers and loved ones, and introduces Millie’s Hope & Healing Affirmation Cards. A purpose built resource designed specifically to support eating disorder recovery with grounded, relevant language. About Millie: Millie Thomas is a Carolyn Costin Institute Certified Eating Disorder Recovery Coach and a Neuro-Linguistic Programming Practitioner. She battled Anorexia Nervosa for 15 years and very nearly lost her life to the illness. She was given up on by her treatment team and told to consider palliative care options. Her miraculous recovery was a catalyst for a complete career change. She left her hometown of Auckland, New Zealand and moved to her ‘happy place’ – the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia. Where she became determined to use her lived experience to help bring eating disorders out of the shadows and into the light. She dedicates her time to eating disorder advocacy and eating disorder recovery coaching. She helps clients around the world to gain freedom from their eating disorders and reclaim their lives. Millie has her private practice HealED and for several years she also worked with Sunshine Coast based charity endED where she was involved in numerous projects including the establishment of Australia’s first residential eating disorders facility ‘Wandi Nerida’. She believes that no matter how long or how hard someone’s journey with an eating disorder has been full recovery is always possible; she is living proof of that. Her definition of Self Love is: Self-love, for me, is giving myself grace while holding hope. Never giving up on myself and choosing to live, not just exist. Her favourite quote is from: Ralph Waldo Emerson- To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. Real success in life is being the kind of person who makes others feel safe enough to be themselves — exactly as they are.

Up until then I had no conception about my body other than what it allowed me to do. I had all personality characteristics that predisposed someone to anorexia. I still had all the thoughts, I had the same brain but different body. I felt I had to pretend that I was doing well. I was existing but not truly living. You might be weight restored but you actually need to be heart restored. Perfectionism can look like an asset, but at that point in my life it was a liability. It was toxic. The need to always do better, it is never enough. I looked happy in all the photos from Ibiza and France, but I was miserable. I was living with a demon in my head. My GP looked at me with tears in his eyes and said, ‘I need you to decide whether you want to live or you want to die because I need to know how to proceed with how we care for you. There was no peace, every single thing that I did I was punished or tortured for. The only way I could I see myself being at peace was being above the world looking down and up from a far. I had vicious voices in my head telling me these horrible things are going to happen if you don’t do this. It is like another force that I can’t even describe. Silky told me, you don’t have an eating disorder. It is something you do, a behaviour that has become a habit and behaviours can be changed. This was the moment when I thought she is right. It was a real sense of empowerment. I thought, if I die now, I will never know what it’s like to live. I felt I owed it to myself to give life a go. If I really hated it that much, on the other side I could always go back. It was the most excruciating, tortuous time of my life. It brought me to my knees, but it also opened the world back up to me. I put one foot in front of the other every single day and I did it. I gained the weight, and I moved on with my life. Recovery felt like standing on the edge of a cliff . Terrifying, unknown, but also strangely liberating. I talk about the 3 C’s which is conscious, consistent and commitment. My eating disorder was consciously, consistently committed to ruining my life hence I had to be consciously, consistently committed to reclaiming my life back. I often thought to myself as I was kicking and screaming on the floor in the middle of recovery “Why me?” What is the reason for this. This was the reason. I was here to use my story and turn my pain into my purpose and create change. Those 15 years were a living hell but without them, I wouldn’t be here now, helping people find freedom, and for that I am forever grateful. People can get well. It is not something you have to battle for the rest of your life with the right support. I knew lived experience was gold. It is the lived experience that helps me to help my clients in a compassionate way. Everything I do now comes from having been there. You can’t bullshit a bullshitter when you have lived it. There was a period where my brother disowned me and said, ‘If you don’t get rid of this illness, I’m out”. Even then, all I cared about was being skinny. I didn’t care if I lost my brother. I was so far down the rabbit hole that it was like water off a duck’s back and that still frightens me to this day. When I think about the possibility that I may never have been an Auntie that breaks my heart. Unless you have lived it as a family, you cannot even begin to imagine how wild that ride is. Eating disorders prey on perfectionism. That black and white thinking of ‘you must do this’ or something terrible will happen. The voice told me every single day, if you do XYZ, you will be happy for the rest of your life. I fell for that spell. Hook, line and sinker. That if I had the perfect body, everything else would fall into place. You think you are in control, but really the eating disorder is in the driver’s seat. Recovery feels like losing control completely but it is actually you taking the control back. As morbid as it sounds, the eating disorder’s goal is to kill you. That is its motive. One of the most important things is to always hold hope. Approach it with love, compassion and non judgement but also have boundaries and encourage them to reach for a different life. Every single time you ask them to be included, they realise they still matter in the world. Connection is key. There was not one aspect of my life that was not affected by my eating disorder. If you can help someone get out of their head and into their heart, piece by piece, bit by bit, that is what helps them keep going.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this weeks Quicky of the Self-Love Podcast, Kim explores the importance of developing observation skills as a tool for personal growth, discussing how stepping back from emotional triggers can lead to better understanding and management of one’s emotions. She delves into scientific concepts like pattern interrupts and neuroplasticity, sharing practical techniques such as the “observer breath” and sensory rituals to help manage emotional responses and create new neural pathways. Kim shares insights on becoming an observer of one’s thoughts and emotions, emphasising the value of self reflection and emotional detachment for personal growth and self-improvement.

Links to follow: Website: https://twenty8.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twenty.8.essential/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twenty8essentials Quotes: One of the most empowering skills any one of us can develop is learning to be the observer. What if we practised zooming out and becoming the observer? Stepping back from the emotional charge and watching the moment with curiosity rather than judgement. It is like rising above the scene, seeing yourself and the other person from a higher vantage point. Triggers activate neural pathways that have often been strengthened for years. When we pause, we get an opportunity to break that automatic loop. This is neuroplasticity in action. Your brain rewiring itself through awareness. Even a three second pause can shift your physiology from fight or flight into rest and digest. When you pause, when you become the observer, when you zoom out, observation opens the door to transformation. I call it the zoom out breathe. Take one, slow deep inhalation and take a step back or upwards, as if you are watching the scene. Name what’s happening: Say to yourself ‘I’m noticing this activation or trigger.’” This shifts you from being in the emotion to actually observing it. Ask yourself: What does the best version of me choose next? Is this really true? Another thing I like to say in my head is, ‘Wow, that’s interesting.’ Anchor through sensory rituals. Essential oils like lavender, neroli, frankincense or your favourite Twenty8 blend can create a physical anchor. Celebrate the pause. You are literally reshaping and rewiring your brain. These micro victories of not reacting can compound into deep embodied change. Becoming the observer isn’t about detaching. It is about holding yourself with compassion. When you observe your thoughts and emotions without becoming them, you truly gain true freedom. Self love isn’t something you just feel. It is something you practise in these exact moments you are tempted to react.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

n this heartfelt episode, Kim speaks with Claire Holmes who shares her remarkable journey from a nurturing childhood in country Victoria to becoming a health educator and functional nutritionist. Her story takes a profound turn when her second child is born prematurely and begins facing complex health challenges, sending the family on a long and emotionally exhausting search for answers. Claire opens up about the devastating experience of being misunderstood and even accused of child abuse, the financial strain that followed, and the heartbreak of watching her child suffer, before finally discovering that toxic mould in their home was at the root of her daughter’s illness. Through adversity, Claire found strength in intuition, mindset, and the power of reframing her inner world. She speaks candidly about shifting from a victim based mindset into one of empowerment through neuro-wisdom practices and subconscious reprogramming. Claire explains how deeply held beliefs, formed in childhood, can shape our health and lived experiences, and how humour, patience, and persistence play an essential role in creating lasting change. The conversation explores the courage it takes to be vulnerable, confront buried emotions and break old patterns. Claire shares how this inner work transformed not only her health, but her family’s life, leading her to homeschool her children for several years and teach them to trust their bodies rather than suppress symptoms with quick fixes. She reflects on her spiritual approach to healing, acceptance, and compassion, and how she now supports others as a functional nutritionist by educating clients and empowering them to trust their intuition. Claire and Kim reflect on the ongoing challenge of balancing purpose driven work and motherhood, the power of zooming out to gain perspective, and the importance of leading with love, compassion, and self trust through life’s most challenging seasons. About Claire Claire Holmes is a New Biology Practitioner and Functional Nutritionist. She has undergone further study specifically in Neurowisdom, Isotropics, The Microbiome, Terrain Therapy, Yoga and Breathwork, Bioelectric Therapy and the Root Cause Protocol. Claire grew up on a farm, living in the outdoors, eating nourishing food and growing up in a loving family with three older brothers. Claire loves surfing, camping, yoga, homeschooling her two children and the deep connected relationships in her life. Life was very smooth and easy for her until she became a mother and then life took a turn. Claire believes that thanks to the trauma, hardships and struggles; she has become the person she is, with the wisdom she now has to share with the world. Without the bathroom floor moments, she believes she would not have grown spiritually and emotionally in the way that she has. Claire wouldn’t have discovered her life purpose. She would not have been forced to find real tools for healing and have connected with the incredible healing mentors she stumbled up around the world. It’s these experiences that have shaped her life and the path she is on now. Claire now offers health consultations and holistic wellness support. She only treats YOU and your unique STORY. She is not concerned with a diagnosis, but more on how you feel and the journey that has led you to the symptoms you have. Two people can have identical symptoms; but the cause and healing path for these two people will possibly be completely different. Everyone’s health journey is completely unique. I will deeply listen! What she hopes individuals will come to understand after working with her is that your body isn’t faulty and just randomly breaks down every so often. She helps you understand and embody a paradigm shift and understand that your body is a self-healing ecosystem that is always working to recreate balance, health and vitality. Symptoms are just the body’s way of communicating an important and timely message. They are either a protective response or part of the body’s process of trying to heal. Your body is incredible; if it’s given what it truly needs it will heal and regain optimal health. Everything your body is doing is for you, not against you. Her definition of Self Love is: Self-love is honouring who you are, being your true self in every moment and not trying to be anybody else. When you get to know yourself, life just works for you. Her favourite quote is: More smiling, less worry, more compassion, less judgement, more blessed, less stressed, more love, and less hate Links to follow: Website: www.nourishingme.com.au Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/nourishingme.au/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/nourishingme/ Quotes: I grew up in country Victoria in a very loving, blessed home. I had a mother who was very intuitive. She just knew how to give us an upbringing that really nurtured our soul and our health. For me, travelling was a real journey of just discovering who I was. I was happy and enjoying life, really living life to the fullest. Something flicked in me, and I knew that wasn’t our journey. I sat on this hospital bed for 10 weeks and I meditated and visualised to keep this beautiful girl alive. I got to the point where I doubted myself as a mother. I said maybe I shouldn’t be her mum. My husband stepped in, and he was incredible and he just made me come back into my truth and trust him, he gave me the confidence to move forward and trust in what I was doing and keep searching for the answers. When we make a decision in life things just come our way and then decided that that with my whole heart that I was going to keep on fighting. Within two weeks of moving house, we had a new daughter. My husband is probably one of the most positive men I know. He can see the bright side. He helped me when I sort of lost the light to see the light again. He honours the ground I walk on, and I honour the ground he walks on, and he made me rediscover my gifts again and the beautiful mother intuition that I had. I was sitting in this place of victim consciousness. That life is happening to me and I am powerless. Our mind is like a movie projector onto our world. Whatever’s playing in our subconscious, we just project on the world to create our experience over and over again. This work is the hardest work anyone will do. We have to expose the illusion and recreate a new story. To reprogram a mind takes a lot of time, commitment and a big sense of humour. You have to dive in and know that being vulnerable is actually a strength. It is not that you are broken. It is just your program that is controlling how you show up in the world. Everyone is on their own unique journey and it is perfect for them. Not everyone is ready to go deep. We have to surrender. We don’t actually have to be friends with everyone. We can move in different directions in our life and people flow in and out. The right people come into our lives at the right time. Whenever there is a symptom, the body is always talking to us. I really want to shape their belief system and give them the best start to life. I deeply listen to their bodies. In homeschooling I could show them the fundamentals of health that I hope they come back to that when they have challenges in life. I have two very wise kids that understand a lot about health and they are my biggest teachers. I help empower people through understanding why that symptom has arisen and getting them to discover why that illness has happened. If we block a healing process, the body will have to do it again. Often worse. I see it as educating people to empower them. Every event that happens, we get to choose how we react in every moment. Be conscious on how you engage in the world, these events will keep happening, If you have the same reaction, you will create the same outcome. When you get to know yourself, life just works for you.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this heartfelt Quicky, Kim explores one of the most powerful yet often overlooked inner abilities we all possess, the power of trust.

Together, we unravel the many layers of trust. Trusting your heart’s fierce knowing, your mind’s clarity, your body’s compass and your gut’s instinctive guidance. You will be reminded that feelings are feedback, intuition is ancient wisdom, and nature is one of our greatest teachers. As you listen, you will discover how trust leads us from fear and control into flow, alignment, courage and deep self connection. If you have been seeking clarity, reassurance, or a gentle nudge back to yourself, this episode is your sign. You will learn how to honour your inner knowing, recognise the signals your body sends, reconnect with the earth beneath your feet, and step into a life that feels guided, grounded, and beautifully aligned.

This is really our intuition speaking, it is our inner wisdom. It doesn’t always speak in words. The truth before the world’s noise or interruptions or distractions get in. The heart is not foolish, but it’s fierce and wise, and if we look at it, it beats to the rhythm of love, not logic. When we trust our heart we open ourselves to connectedness, compassion and courage. We can trust the body. The body never lies. Learning to read our body signals, that is a radical act of self respect. When the gut says no, it is probably important that we listen. When it says yes, I think it’s equally important that we lean in. Trusting our feelings doesn’t mean reacting. Maybe it means more about honouring the messages that our feelings carry. Nature doesn’t rush. The tree never questions whether it will bloom again. It trusts the seasons. When we don’t trust, when we stop trusting ourselves, we outsource our own power. You were born with that wisdom. It has been there all along. We just need to slow down and get quiet enough to hear it again. Trust is an energy that builds with every choice aligned to your truth. Your body is a phenomenal compass, your heart is your guide, and your mind is the translator. Trust yourself. Trust your timing. Trust your journey, and trust that the more you do, the more your life will flow in ways that you once only dreamed possible. When you trust yourself, you become unstoppable.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this heartfelt conversation, Kim sits down with Dr Michelle Woolhouse, an integrative and holistic medical doctor, to explore self-love and health. Together, they reflect on the growing need for deeper, more human centred care in a medical system that often prioritises speed and quick fixes. Michelle shares her personal journey from traditional training to a more holistic practice, describing how burnout, time pressure, and societal expectations have pushed medicine away from empathy, depth and meaningful connection. Kim and Michelle discuss how true healing requires looking beneath symptoms to understand trauma, emotional patterns, and the body’s innate wisdom. Michelle explains why longer, more intentional consultations allow space for this depth, and the two explore how early life experiences shape adult wellbeing. Their conversation also touches on the changing perception of doctors, the rise of integrative medicine, and the importance of restoring empathy and humanity in healthcare. They explore the intelligence of the heart, the role of awe and nature in healing, and the need to honour rest and resilience. Both women emphasise the value of embracing discomfort as a catalyst for growth, and Michelle shares how self-love can be cultivated even when it feels difficult. Sometimes beginning with the love we receive from others. The episode weaves together reflections on aging, personal development, intuition, and the profound healing available through connection with nature. Kim and Michelle close with mutual appreciation and a commitment to supporting people to trust their bodies, reconnect with themselves and navigate midlife with compassion and confidence.

I love humans, people in general and stories that people have. At the core of every consultation is the human being. We are part of nature, we belong to nature. I think most people go into medicine with a fairly significant love of humans. The training and those early years in medicine are very gruelling and they often can wound doctors quite enormously. Burnout in medicine is around some 70%. We have lost reverence, for the magic that occurs in slow time. People are starting to value depth over a surface quick fix. There is a level of expertise that with training and through 10, 15, 20, 30 years of sitting with humans at their most vulnerable. You are listening to in between the words. Maybe you got your freeze response not even from anything that happened. Maybe it is just acknowledging that that freeze response was a response by your forebears to survive. We can only take our patients as far as we are willing to go ourselves. Western medicine is Ayurvedic medicine. It is a traditional medicine. It has very holistic imprints in its history. Life is also medicine. Our heart is fully functioning with its own nervous system at four weeks when the embryo is four weeks old. The heart is like the core receptor. The heart can learn, remember, sense and feel, all without input from the brain. Awe is the fastest interconnection to the heart space and we should be seeking awe at our peril. One of the things I feel we have lost is this deep respect for rest and balance and with that we lose our recovery time. Until we get that back there is that recipe for overwhelm, over productivity, hyper vigilance and high stress. We are teaching resilience skills rather than in the trust that the body is inherently resilient and that it does have wisdom, and we know what to do. When we sit in comfort and don’t do these things we are at risk of losing a sense of edge and growth. You want to be growing until the day you die. To honour oneself is to honour life itself. I love playing around with being a receiver of life. Leaning into the love of others to help bring it home to yourself. One thing that I think is missing in everybody’s personal journey is this sense of thrusting their own body wisdom and that does come with tremendous practice. In order to garner trust, it is something that grows very slowly and can be lost very quickly. We want to be kind in real time. Introspection is this almost like the going within to understand that body wisdom. To be human is to embrace the dichotomies. To embrace the extremes and understand the paradox of what it means to be human.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this week’s Quicky, Kim explores the powerful interplay of masculine and feminine energies. Expressions that exist within all of us and shape how we live, love, and lead. Rather than being about gender, these energies reflect two complementary forces: the masculine as focus, structure, and protection, and the feminine as flow, intuition and nurturing. Kim shares how these energies mirror our nervous system, why imbalance can lead to burnout or lack of direction, and how consciously shifting between them can bring more grounding, harmony and connection into your home and relationships. You will also hear simple daily practices from planning and breathwork to essential oils that help you move between drive and softness with awareness. Whether you are in a partnership, parenting, or navigating life solo, this episode offers a heartfelt reminder that harmony comes from trust, not control. When both energies are honoured, life feels more whole, love feels safer, and our homes feel like sacred spaces. Tune in for a gentle, practical guide to embracing these energies within yourself and those you love. All the essential oils mentioned in this show can be found at www.twenty8.com.

This isn’t about being male or female. I love talking about them as energetic expressions. The masculine energy exists to provide and protect. It’s the solid mountain that creates safety and direction. The feminine at her finest is here to nourish and nurture. She is the river flowing with creativity, emotion, empathy and connection. One without the other creates imbalance. Too much masculine and we burn out. Too much feminine and we lose structure or direction. The magic lies in consciously shifting between them. Knowing when to step up and when to surrender. When the masculine feels trusted to provide, protect and lead, he steps into his strength. When the feminine feels safe to nurture, nourish and receive, she expands in her power. The key is not control, but trust. Trusting the masculine to hold and trusting the feminine to feel. A child raised in a home where both energies are honoured learns resilience and empathy, strength and softness. Start the day in masculine energy, structure, focus, purpose and then consciously transition into the feminine energy, reflection, creativity, connection. Essentials oils frankincense or sandalwood can help ground the masculine. Rose , jasmine and ylang ylang awaken the feminine. In relationships, when both try to lead, conflict arises. When both surrender, stagnation sets in. The real art is taking turns. Leading and yielding as life invites. A man’s strength is sacred when it is used in service, not dominance. A woman’s softness is power when it flows from confidence, not need. When the masculine and feminine meet in balance, life feels whole, love feels safe, and our homes feel sacred.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this episode, Kim talks with human design reader and Reflector, Leanne Plummer, founder of Magick of Your Design. Leanne shares her unusual childhood travelling Australia in a caravan, her love of crystals and geology and how burnout and self inquiry eventually led her to human design. At the heart of it all, Leanne shares how human design has become a roadmap back to herself. Helping her honour her need for space, understand why friendships and socialising have always felt different for her and release the story that she was “wrong” or “broken.” Leanne explains the five human design types in simple terms, how knowing your chart can transform self-love, relationships and parenting, and why our “shadows” are actually guidance, not flaws. If you have ever wondered why you don’t quite fit the mould, this conversation will help you understand and honour, the unique magick of your design. About Leanne: Hi, I’m Leanne — Reflector, certified Human Design reader, and the heart behind The Magick of Your Design. For most of my life, I was driven by structure, deadlines, and achievement. As a project manager and technical writer, I was skilled at creating clarity for others — but I often felt disconnected from my own rhythm. Discovering Human Design changed everything. It helped me understand why traditional ways of working and living never quite fit — and it showed me how to create ease, flow, and self-trust by honouring my unique energy. As a Reflector 1/3, I’m here to mirror truth — to help you see yourself clearly, release what’s not yours, and reconnect to the essence of who you really are. Through my readings, I blend grounded insight with intuitive reflection to create calm, transformative experiences. My work isn’t about giving you another system to follow — it’s about guiding you back to your own inner guidance, your internal map. Because when you understand the magick of your design, you stop trying to fit in — and start living in resonance with who you’ve always been. Her definition of Self Love is: Self love is about honouring who you are in this moment. Her favourite quote is: There is no failure, only feedback Links to follow: Website: https://magickofyourdesign.carrd.co/ Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/share/14PE6VQx1Z3/ Leanne is offering Self Love Podcast listeners a special discounted human design reading, where she runs your chart, walks you through it and sends a detailed written report so you can revisit and integrate the insights at your own pace.  You will need to know your birthdate, time and place of birth. Below is a link to a discounted session ($75) Human Design Introduction – Self Love Special Quotes: I went to about 13 primary schools, so I was always on the road and never really felt like I made any friends or formed any real relationships in my life. That is something I carried through. I studied geology which started my love for crystals. If you lose a crystal, you are done with it. You don’t need it anymore and it doesn’t need you anymore. Hopefully someone else picks it up who needs it. I am a firm believer that things come into your life for a reason and things leave your life for a reason. I have always had a real strong sense of direction. I believe the lifestyle created that persona, and I’ve hung onto it. It has been a story of mine. I have started to let people see me. I have let them in on who I am a little bit more recently. I am a big daydreamer. I used to just daydream all the time about all sorts of stuff. I was looking for myself. Who am I? Where do I fit in this whole scheme of things?” Life’s an experiment. We are always going to keep coming across the same things, but we respond to them differently. I looked up human design and I am a reflector. The other types are generators, manifesting generators, manifestors and projectors. Discovering human design didn’t suddenly fix everything, but it gave me rabbit holes to explore on how I could lift my vibration and lift myself up. You can do the same program again and again, but you will see it differently each time because you have healed or worked on something in between. With human design, I will be forever learning more and more. I don’t think you can ever know every single aspect of it. I try to listen to different people so I am not just getting one person’s perspective on human design. I am now forming my own. I have called my work ‘The Magick of Your Design,’ because I believe that is where the magic happens – when you bring it all together and see how beautifully unique you are. Just because you have a certain gate doesn’t mean everyone with that gate will have the same interests. It is what you bring to it that makes it your superpower. Human design isn’t about making anyone wrong. It is about understanding how you are wired so you stop beating yourself up for being who you are. When a shadow shows up, it is just your warning system that you are out of alignment right now. It is not the truth of who you are. You need to learn to love your shadows. Don’t hate on them. They are simply indicators that it is time to recenter yourself. Even just knowing someones type and energy can really help you understand how to approach them and why they work the way they do. Generators and manifesting generators, if they are doing something that brings them joy they will go all day. But the other three types, once they are done, they are done. As a Reflector, people tend to see themselves in us. We mirror them back, and sometimes if they don’t like us, it is because they don’t like something in themselves. Sometimes I get really bubbly and excited in someone’s aura and then they leave and I think, ‘Oh, that wasn’t me – who was that?” We evolve all the time; every day we change. Self love is being okay with that. Life needs to be an experiment. Try something! If it doesn’t work, try it differently, pivot, go left instead of right, just keep moving forward. Human design is your roadmap, your inner wisdom is your compass, and trusting yourself is the destination.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this week’s quicky Kim focuses on understanding sympathetic dominance, a state of constant nervous system activation that can be triggered by modern activities and leads to various physical symptoms and chronic stress. Kim discussed the functions of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems, emphasising the importance of balance and highlighting how prolonged sympathetic dominance can negatively impact overall health. Kim discusses simple, powerful practices to shift back into your parasympathetic nervous system to the place where your body rests, digests, heals and reconnects with joy. From breathwork and aromatherapy to gentle movement, nourishment, boundaries, and rituals, these tools help you re-teach your body what safety feels like.

The constant ‘on’ mode where your nervous system believes you are in danger even when you are doing little things like checking texts or emails. Our nervous system has two main branches, the sympathetic and parasympathetic. Your sympathetic nervous system is your fight, flight, or freeze mode. Your parasympathetic system is your rest, digest and heal mode where your body restores, digests food, balance hormones and allows you to sleep more deeply. Science shows that prolonged activation of the stress responses raises inflammation, impacts, blood sugar control and alters our gut brain axis. This is why self care is so important and isn’t indulgent. It is vital for nervous system repair. Slow, diaphragmatic breathing is the fastest way to turn off the stress response. Essential oils work directly with the limbic system, the emotional brain and oils like lavender, frankincense, neroli and ylang ylang remind the body how to relax. Gentle movement tells your nervous system that you have escaped danger. It resets the loop. It is about presence not punishment. Touch and connection help with regulation. Oxytocin is nature’s antidote to stress chemistry. Eat real food, slow down when you eat and become fully present when eating. Blackcurrant performance powder supports the adrenals and can calm inflammation. Every ping from your phone triggers a micro stress response. Let your nervous system remember silence is actually ok. Prioritise rest and create daily and evening rituals. Rituals remind the body it is well and safe, and it is ok to let go. Sympathetic dominance isn’t who you are. It is just a state we have learned to live in and we can unlearn it. The path back to balance starts with intentionality and awareness.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this uplifting and deeply grounded conversation, Kim speaks with Dr Bridget Melling-Williams — chiropractor, artist, mother, and wholehearted advocate for following your passions at any age. Bridget shares her remarkable life journey, beginning on a farm in country New South Wales and leading her to a meaningful career in chiropractic on the Sunshine Coast. Bridget opens up about her early years, including the challenges of boarding school and the independence it fostered, followed by her transition into the arts and design world in Melbourne. She reflects on the unexpected pivot that came later in life. Returning to study at age 45 and finding her calling in chiropractic care. Bridget discusses how her creativity and artistic background inform her intuitive, patient centred approach to practice, where trust, connection, and presence take centre stage. Together, Kim and Bridget explore the realities of balancing family life with big dreams. She also speaks lovingly about their move to the Sunshine Coast, embracing ocean swims, surfing, and the relaxed Queensland lifestyle. The conversation then dives into chiropractic care and nervous system health. Kim and Bridget highlight the importance of stillness, breathwork, and creating space in a busy world to support emotional and physical wellbeing. The episode also touches on endurance racing, the camaraderie of the UTMB event, and the mental resilience required for long-distance challenges — both on the trails and in life. About Bridget: Bridget Melling-Williams is a chiropractor based on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, where she lives with her husband—also a chiropractor—and their four sons. After a successful career as an artist, Bridget embraced a bold career change in her 40s, undertaking a five-year degree to follow her passion for helping others through chiropractic care. She specializes in techniques such as Sacral Occipital Technique and Neuro Emotional Technique, combining her love of human connection with a holistic approach to wellness. An avid adventurer, Bridget thrives in the outdoors and continually seeks new experiences as part of her self-care and commitment to living a natural, fulfilling life. She brings to her work—and her conversations—the same curiosity, creativity, and heart that have guided her through life’s transitions. Her definition of Self Love is: Looking after yourself in a way that I am doing the things I want to be doing. For me that is trying new things. Her favourite quote is: Life is short and we have not too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who travel the way with us. Be swift to love, make haste to be kind. This quote is attributed to Henri-Frédéric Amiel, a 19th-century Swiss philosopher, poet, and moralist. It’s from his Journal Intime, where he wrote reflections on life, morality, and human connection.

I went to boarding school at aged 12 and had to create a real sense of independence. I found it a challenging experience. I developed a love of art. I knew I wanted to pursue art and see the world. I encouraged my husband to study chiropractic. We both resonated with it and wanted to incorporate vitalistic health in our lives. The vitalistic framework always felt natural to me. I stayed away from medical invention when I could. I felt a little burnout and I really wanted something more. I spent so much time in the chiropractic community. I found it empowering and nourishing. It filled my cup and I loved learning. I loved the philosophy of innate intelligence and allowing the body to heal and self-regulate. I loved studying chiropractic and I found my inner nerd. I loved all the subjects. I found similarities in creating art and chiropractic. A different form of art but similar in that that I do get to express myself. It’s like being a true artist. I love the engagement with people and the one on one connection. I was in love with being a mum with young children. Mike appreciated what I was doing and I appreciated what he was doing. I kept coming back to chiropractic, the nervous system is the root of everything. When I decided to study I thought in my head I am going to be 5 years older anyway. I might as well go for it. I was blown away at how intergenerational it was and they didn’t treat me any different. Let’s go and have an adventure what is the worst that can happen. I love the outdoor lifestyle and swim in the ocean, I am learning to surf and trail running. I love being in nature. Chiropractic is about regulating your nervous system. It is that master control system. We want optimum function which allows you to access both pathways. With a regulated nervous system, you can be your best self creatively, socially and think clearly. Stresses are always going to be there, we have chemical, physical and emotional stresses. Chiropractic takes tension out of the spine and out of the nervous system, if the pathways are clear your body is regulated and there is freedom of expression. We work with the body to enable self expression and self regulation. The cracking sound is due to gases in the joints and adjustments can still be effective without sound. We are feeling through the fine layers, knowing what to feel and feeling for change. Stillness and breathwork is an amazing tool Practising stillness can be more powerful than active movement. Focus on breath and sitting in stillness can be great in helping to regulate. Running in nature, in that landscape was so magical. I do love variety in my life. Self love spreads out to those I love. Making sure my boys are ok is nourishing me. An extension of self love is making sure they are ok and fulfilling their dreams. Life is short. Make the most of every moment and opportunity. Be kind!   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this heartfelt Quicky, Kim explores the deep and timeless connection between humans and the land. She reminds us that we don’t own the Earth. We belong to it! Through thoughtful reflections, Kim honours the farmers and rural communities who nurture life, care for the land and sustain us all. She discusses the growing disconnect between city dwellers and the people who grow our food, encouraging listeners to understand the stories behind what we eat and to recognise the dedication of those who work closest to nature. Kim also offers practical ways to reconnect with the land such as supporting local farmers and businesses, making mindful food choices, reducing waste, and practicing gratitude for every meal. From simple acts like gardening to sharing food stories with children, this episode inspires you to live in greater harmony with nature and to walk gently upon the Earth.

Links to follow: Website: https://twenty8.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twenty.8.essential/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twenty8essentials Quotes: When we take a moment to honour the land we are connecting to something sacred and ancient. The essence of the land that we walk, it carries memories, it has energy and spirit. The Earth doesn’t belong to us. We belong to it. We are part of a greater big tapestry of life, a cycle that sustains, nourishes and connects us all. Our farmers don’t just grow food. They nurture life and take care of the land, animals and the ecosystem. Our Famers live for the reverence for the earth. Mother Nature is one of their biggest business partners. How can we reconnect and support those that live and work closely with the land? Start with mindfulness and small daily choices. You can make a difference by where you choose to spend your dollar. Buy local when you can. Ask questions when you buy food. It creates awareness and connection. Give gratitude. A simple but profound reminder to pause and give thanks for our food and those who provide it Share stories. Talk about the beauty and challenges of rural life with your children so they have an appreciation of where their food comes from. The more we share the more we honour those that work for us each day. Every act of appreciation has a ripple effect. I like to give a little whisper or prayer to the land that holds us, feeds us and grounds us. We are not separate from nature we are part of it, even an expression of it. Take a moment to honour the land on which we walk, the food we eat and honour the beautiful souls that work tirelessly to put food on our tables. Let’s give thanks.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this heartfelt conversation, Kim sits down with Anna Radal, a former lawyer turned cattle farmer, to explore her remarkable journey from city life in Brisbane to managing a rural property in outback Australia. Together, they dive deep into themes of authenticity, resilience, integrity and the profound connection between self-love and living in harmony with the land. Anna reflects on her early life in 1970s Brisbane, where her love for horses shaped her path from an adventurous childhood to a successful legal career. After decades in commercial law, Anna made the courageous decision to leave the profession at 50 and embrace a life rooted in farming, family, and nature. She shares candid insights about the challenges of managing a cattle station during drought, maintaining soil health, and navigating the emotional and financial pressures faced by Australian farmers. The conversation also delves into Anna’s spiritual approach to farming — one that honours animals, the land, and the cycles of life. She speaks movingly about her bond with horses, the therapeutic nature of riding, and her belief in working with nature as a business partner. Kim and Anna also discuss broader issues such as the income disparity for Australian farmers, the importance of supporting local producers, and how gratitude and mindfulness can transform our relationship with food. Throughout the episode, Kim highlights Anna’s integrity and authenticity. Values that shine through in both her legal and farming life plus the shared belief that true self love includes loving the Earth and the people who nurture it. About Anna: Anna Radel grew up in the idyllic adventure of a 1970s Brisbane childhood, where she discovered an early love for both horses and the law. Driven and determined, she pursued her dual passions relentlessly — setting her sights on becoming a leading lawyer while competing in eventing. But life had other plans. Three life-changing events within six years profoundly altered her trajectory, leading her away from the city and into the heart of rural Queensland — a move that redefined her understanding of success, strength, and connection. Alongside her husband Craig, Anna realised a lifelong dream: to own and care for their own cattle property. In 2003, with a one-month-old baby and a newly acquired legal practice, they took a leap of faith and bought their first small parcel of grazing land. Fast forward to 2025, and that vision has evolved into a thriving 10,000-acre, organically and regeneratively managed cattle enterprise. Once a strategic, pedantic, and laser-focused lawyer, Anna has since deepened her connection to the land, the soil, and the energetic world that surrounds us. She believes that the land, with all its biodiversity, profoundly supports human wellbeing — if only we take the time to listen and tune in. Her story is one of resilience, adaptability, and the courage to evolve — qualities shaped by 35 years of life and leadership in the vast pastures of Central Queensland. Her definition of Self Love is: Owning yourself with pride. Her favourite quote is from: People of integrity expect to be believed, and when they’re not, they let time prove them right.

I always encouraged my kids to have crazy adventures. I am a country girl but love the powerful atmosphere of the city. Being a lawyer got to the point it wasn’t fun anymore even though I loved helping clients. It was a job that didn’t align with my ethics and values anymore. Links to the land run very deep. It is more than just a place to work. You need to look after the land as it is your long term asset. Coming home to living full time on the farm gave me a chance to heal myself as well as allow my land to heal itself. I work with nature from a subtle energy level through to what is physically is in front of us. There is a whole world under the ground. Nothing is on earth by mistake. My job is to make everyday a good day for my cows. I try and wrap them up with energy of love, calmness, serenity, purpose and gratitude. I have always been guided by my gut. Land vibrates masses amounts of energy. Big trees are like centenarians, our guides. The knowledge in a tree is phenomenal. Horses are very intuitive. Their souls connect to ours so easily. We wouldn’t be who we are without horses. Since civilisation they have been our teammates. Mother Nature is both the greatest blessing and sometimes the harsh parent teaching us lessons. My isolation came from being lawyer than living in the country. Everyone is different and your differences are beautiful. Farmers do the hard things every single day. They have no time off. You can’t let the crisis get you. This too shall pass. It’s a slow march. Life is just one foot in front of another, Support Australian farmers by buying direct from farmers markets or family butcher shops when possible   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

Rosacea is more than just redness. It’s a chronic inflammatory skin condition that can deeply affect confidence and wellbeing. It can be triggered by heat, stress, spicy foods, alcohol, caffeine and harsh skin care products. There’s no one size fits all when it comes to rosacea. The key is discovering what works best for your skin. Choose good anti-inflammatory foods. Foods like berries, leafy greens, turmeric and blackcurrants can calm inflammation from the inside out. Blackcurrant performance can calm the skin. It is a one ingredient superfood! Less is more when it comes to external skincare. Keep your skincare routine simple. Avoid harsh products and return to gentle, natural care. Cold compresses are great if your skin feels hot. Cold chamomile tea bag or cucumber slices compresses can do wonders for soothing heat and redness. Use essential oils diluted and mindfully. The oils I love the most include German chamomile, helichrysum or immortelle, lavender, rose and or geranium. Lavender water is also very soothing to the skin. When breathing in these beautiful essential oils they are affecting your psychology as much as they are supporting your nervous system, your physical body and skin. Rosacea rescue serum 5mls of jojoba oil or calendula and 1 drop each of chamomile, helichrysum or immortelle and lavender. Any skin condition can also be a gut issue and linked to hormonal imbalances and stress. Nourish your microbiome with probiotics, omega-3s fatty acid and vitamin c rich foods. Frankincense is your coat of armour and lavender like a mother hug to help manage the emotional stress Hydrate well. Water is important and you can add blackcurrant powder to your water & include herbal teas like chamomile. When natural remedies are not enough seeking help from a professional such as a GP or dermatologist. Healing starts when you start addressing the root cause. It doesn’t define you it could be potentially your bodies way of asking for calm. Nourish from within with natures gift and don’t be ashamed to seek medical support. Less heat, more heart and more lavender in my humble opinion. You are beautiful inside and out and don’t ever forget it.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

In this heartwarming and inspiring episode, Kim sits down with Tamara Borg from Wild Chicks Farm to explore her family’s journey toward sustainable living, holistic wellness and conscious parenting. Together, they reflect on the joys and challenges of moving from city life to a rural property. Living in a shed while building their dream home, growing their own food, and teaching their children the true value of connection, gratitude, and self sufficiency. Tamara shares how her love of gardening began with childhood memories in her grandparents’ garden and blossomed into a lifestyle rooted in organic living, education, and community. She offers practical insights into starting a vegetable garden, the benefits of mushroom compost, and the beauty of understanding where our food comes from. The conversation also celebrates the incredible success of Tamara’s daughter Capri, whose tallow based skincare range has become a symbol of integrity, quality, and mindful creation. Kim and Tamara discuss the family’s holistic approach to wellness, from nourishing the body with whole foods to nurturing the mind and spirit through gratitude and simplicity. This episode is a beautiful reminder that sustainable living isn’t just about what we grow — it’s about how we live, love, and lead by example. About Tamara Tamara Borg is a homeschooling mum, wellness advocate, and the founder of Wild Chicks Farms, a space for natural living. On her five-acre property in Sydney, Tamara has built a life rooted in simplicity, connection, and health. She grows seasonal produce, cares for animals, and alongside her children, creates nourishing natural products. Her eldest daughter, Capri, also runs her own business, Crystal Tallow, which Tamara supports and helps bring to life. Homeschooling plays a huge role in her world. Through it, Tamara shares practical life skills with her children from gardening, cooking, and fermenting food to weaving and whittling bush crafts. These hands-on practices are more than just skills; they are tools for building resilience, gratitude, and confidence. For Tamara, true wellbeing is about living in alignment with nature, fuelling our bodies with real food, creating a toxin-free home, and finding joy in the everyday rhythms of life. She’s passionate about inspiring others to reconnect with themselves and the earth, and to discover that wholeness and happiness begin with the small, simple choices we make each day. Her definition of Self Love is: Self Love is getting to know yourself without the ego, judgment, guilt and shame. Who I am solely, deep within. Her favourite quote is from: Hippocrates “Let food be thy medicine” Links to follow: Website: https://wildchicksfarm.com.au/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wild.chicks.farm/?hl=en Use code SELFLOVE at wildchicksfarm.com.au for a free lip balm (valued at $20) with any purchase Quotes: My love for the garden started at my grandparents house. Eating a whole organic meal from the garden is true wealth, true richness. We shared the same joy for love of nature. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to grow food at home. No matter where you are you can grow something at home. Herbs is a great place to start. To me convenience is going to your backyard and picking a lemon from a tree. When you grow your own food there is so much you are receiving from giving. Grow what you grow really well and if a crop doesn’t take off that season let it go. Do the best you can and let go of the rest. I am going to focus on a crop that is thriving and be grateful for that. It is not something I can teach, it is something they need to experience. They earn that respect from working on the land. Conscious connection that an animal was a living thing, and it has given up its life for us to be nourished and nurtured. If we give thanks to our food, we can digest it better. We are designed to give thanks and to live in gratitude. The more we give and more we receive. Connection to one another and presence I believe will heal. We are looking to outsource and it is all within. We need to reconnect with ourselves and nature. No amount of judgement would sway me away into doing what I knew was best for my children. Everyone does the best they can with what they know. Education is a huge part of it. Everything I know is something I have been taught myself. Someone has taken the time to share that with me. It is my right to share that knowledge with people to bridge that gap from ancient wisdom to the modern day world. It is my calling to share. Capri’s tallow skincare line was born from love, curiosity, and a desire to create something honest and healing. Watching my kids turn their passions into purpose reminds me that leading by example is the greatest gift we can give. Essentials oil and smell personally takes me deep. I feel grounded, connected and expanded. For me essentials oils are our medicine. We navigate by having better alternatives. Go back to basics. Go back to the pillars of health which is mostly all free. We do have the power. As women we have the power as being our families gatekeepers. We do have a choice. You can start from where you are at. Everyone is on a different path of their journeys. Change one thing at a time. We have an inner knowing, listen to that.   SELF LOVE PODCAST SPONSOR LINKS THANKYOU FOR LISTENING… If you would like to share your feedback on this podcast please head to my Facebook and Instagram pages below.

The Travelling Thermo

Wonderful conversation. Big aha around making my self love time sacred. I do different acts of selflove but I haven't made it sacred. If it is interrupted I allow it. Thankyou Kim and Dr Z, a stunning interview.
