In this exciting episode I chat with Juliana Jaramillo about her adventures as a child in Colombia, what lead her to Australia and then into the life she now leads with a strong connection to God and spirit.
Juliana went on a retreat into Far North Qld with a group, hiking into the dense rainforest in Cedar Bay. The hike in was an 8 hour 16km trek and she decided to make the return trip alone and after 5 hours she lost the markers on the trail. She found after walking in circles for several hours that she was indeed lost and this could be the end for her.
After much self reflection Juliana realised that god was watching over her and had received guidance she would be there 5 days and 4 nights. This was to come true and on the 5th day with no food and only a natural spring of water to drink from Juliana was miraculously rescued.

In this episode we have a deep discussion around self harm, self esteem suicide, suppression and so much more.
Men have this uncanny ability to suppress, numb and avoid any emotion or connection to pain. We are taught to be physically strong which is great but we need to decipher the difference between physical and emotional.
Within this chat we aim to get more men to open up, chat and connect to their inner self and unlock some deep rooted emotions that are causing havoc.
