Dr Helen takes us on her mission to better understand the female form and women’s health. We discuss why there is such a huge misunderstanding when it comes to the female productive system and how she aims to make her knowledge accessible and translatable. Understanding menstrual cycles: We journey through the rhythmic and cyclical expressions of our hormones and how they can cause many intense psychological, anatomical and physical changes within our body. Dr Helen helps us to understand each phase of the menstrual cycle and what it means for us and our mood. The Male Hormonal System: We discover how profound the hormonal impact is on men by exploring their natural 24 hour cycle of hormones in comparison to a female lunar cycle. Dr Helen also draws parallels between other natural cycles and how, as humans, they all impact our capabilities to complete certain tasks. Fear of the Female Form: We unpick fears surrounding female anatomy and form. Dr Helen explains how we have mirrored feelings passed on through our parents and the impact this has on society's understanding of it.  Infertility: It’s a conversation that I feel so many people are having. I ask Dr Helen about the increasing rate of infertility and why those statistics have changed over the years. We look beyond the statistics by looking into our own health and genetics to get a more honest analysis of our reproductive health. We also dispel some myths surrounding fertility such as drinking, contraception and age. We also touch on freezing eggs and why she isn’t afraid to say she got pregnant by accident. The Choice: Often women can feel the need to make a choice between success and motherhood. We discuss the powerful and profound skillset that females naturally have and why we choose to ignore our maternal instincts.

In this enlightening episode of Saturn Returns, Caggie welcomes Julia Cameron, the visionary author of "The Artist's Way," for a deep dive into the realms of creativity, sobriety, and spiritual awakening. Julia shares her transformative journey from battling addiction to discovering a prolific path of artistic expression and inner peace. From Addiction to Inspiration: Julia opens up about her decision to embrace sobriety after a decade of struggling with alcohol. She explores the fears and myths surrounding creativity and addiction, reflecting on the insightful words of Dylan Thomas and how they've influenced her perspective on life and art. Divine Connection: Delving into the power of spirituality, Julia discusses how turning to a higher power revitalised her creative flow and helped combat her fears of creation. The conversation highlights the importance of humility in her work and its impact on her artistic process. Overcoming Creative Blocks: Julia and Caggie explore the daunting barriers to creativity, including inner child work, shame, fear, and rejection. Julia introduces the concept of the 'shadow artist' and the significance of recognizing and overcoming this state to fully embrace one's creative potential. Spiritual Chiropractic for Creativity: Discover Julia's transformative practices like Morning Pages and Artist Dates, designed to nurture the inner child and break through creative blocks. Julia emphasises the role of play in fostering creativity, arguing it's as crucial as work in the artistic journey.
