In this episode, we are speaking to Taya Stapelfeldt - a somatic leadership coach, mentor and embodiment trainer for women who want it all - a soul partner, motherhood and a purpose-drive, flourishing business. Her unique approach to somatic mastery combines many years of spiritual practice with leadership coaching, mindset, movement, breath and energy work that enables clients to transform at every level.
She is called ‘the woman with the key’ who has ‘direct access to the truth’, where the essence of magic can be felt working with her because there is an element of the unexplainable with her results.
Now this is a special episode, because not only is Taya the first return guest we’ve had here on the podcast, but who also, outside my mother, is the healer who has guided and supported the most profound shifts and evolution in my life. So it is an absolute honour for me to be able to share with you a little of her magic through this conversation. And boy did she share some incredible insights.
So what do we get into - well we talk about the pull of hustle culture and how it keeps us stuck in the matrix often feeling numb and disconnected, how we can turn our trauma in power, the technology within the body we are born with, becoming the master of your own somatic tools and so much more!

Hey it’s Steph Dickson and welcome to the Live Wide Awake podcast.
Today is a very special episode because I am reposting an episode from the How To Live podcast where I was interviewed. The reason I am doing that is because we went deep on anxiety and mental health. If you’ve been following me for a while you know this is a very important topic to me. I have been in and out of the darkness and have suffered from anxiety since I was 11 years old. And in this interview, I bare my soul, share what it's like and how I support myself through it.
These conversations needs to be normalised, the more people who talk about it, the more we can break down any taboos still lingering around, support others and of course ourselves.
There are two parts to this interview. The first 20 minutes we talk about climate change and sustainability. Then we go into mental health and the darkness.
I am very grateful to my friend, life coach and entrepreneur, Sharad Lal for sharing my story and using his platform for such meaningful topics. A little bit about his podcast - it explores ways to live a good life. If you are looking to manage stress, deepen relationships, navigate midlife, build resilience, or simply add more meaning to your life - check it out.
Okay, let’s dive in, it's time to live wide awake.

Hey it’s Steph Dickson and welcome to the Live Wide Awake podcast.
By now, you’ve probably heard of the words blockchain, NFTs, web3 buzzing around. And maybe you’ve started to get curious about what it all means. I certainly have.
And I’ve been seeing a lot of people who work in the environmental space starting to come out with projects. I’m intrigued about the potential applications and impact for society and the environment with this technology.
So today we’re speaking with Matt Rickard, Co-founder of Task.io, a Stellar-based blockchain platform that helps social enterprises to scale more effectively and TheBlueMarble.io, an eco-friendly NFT marketplace where creators can support social and environmental causes.
The common thread there is the Stellar-based blockchain which alleges to be faster, cheaper and more energy efficient than typical blockchain based systems. We will dive into this more during this chat.
