This one’s a deep dive, folks.

In this ep, you’ll hear Stacey and Ané chat about death—yep, we’re going there. Not in a doom-and-gloom way, but in a “let’s make peace with it and live a good life” kinda way.

You’ll hear:

• Why death isn’t the enemy—it’s actually what gives life its juicy meaning
• That weird obsession the West has with pretending we’ll live forever (spoiler: we won’t)
• How past life stuff might be the root of your random fears (elevator anxiety, anyone?)
• What it means to live in integrity with your soul’s choices
• And why it’s totally okay if the cats keep chasing you (yes, really)

The girls share personal stories, irrational fears (locked doors and trampoline cats included), and spiritual tools to help you stop fearing death and start living on purpose.

Books we chat about: 🌀 Many Lives, Many Masters – a wild ride into past life regression and healing from deep-seated fears

And a cheeky reminder: ✨ You’re an infinite being. Your spirit’s not on a deadline. ✨ You don’t have to cram every life lesson into one go. ✨ And no, chucking yourself in a dumpster when you cark it is not a vibe.

Got a weird fear or a story about your past life as a Viking barmaid or intergalactic dolphin whisperer? We wanna hear it. Hit us up through our website.

Let’s live fully, love boldly, and not be afraid of the stuff we can’t avoid.

See you next week beautiful!

Ever felt like a total failure? Like the universe has just thrown you into the deep end with no floaties? Same.

In this episode, we dive into the messy, gut-wrenching side of business. The part no one puts on Instagram. The setbacks, the self-doubt, and those moments where giving up feels easier than pushing forward.

We chat about:

• Why failure isn’t actually the end (even when it bloody feels like it)
• How to reframe setbacks as stepping stones
• The spiritual lessons hidden in your biggest flops
• Letting go of the shame and trusting yourself again

You’ll walk away with a fresh perspective on failure—one that doesn’t make you want to crawl under a rock.

So, if you're in a rough patch or just need a reminder that you're not alone, this one's for you.

Tune in and let’s navigate the chaos together.

Welcome back, gorgeous ones! Today, we're diving into the magic of birth—not just babies, but ideas, projects, and creations. It's all about co-creating with Mother Nature, leaning into intuition, and letting go of the pressure to make everything perfect.

What We Chat About:

✨ Birth as a co-creation—not just a physical thing but an energetic process
✨ Letting go of perfectionism and control
✨ The stress around pregnancy, IVF, and the pressure to get it “right”
✨ The way society has turned birth and even sex into another task on the to-do list
✨ Trusting your body, your instincts, and your own timing
✨ Why Stacey isn’t sharing her due date with anyone
✨ Breaking free from information overload and tuning into your intuition

Whether you’re thinking about having a baby, birthing a business, or just trying to live with more flow, this convo is for you. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about shifting perspectives and getting comfy with the unknown.

We’re unpacking the ways we’ve been conditioned to push, force, and plan every detail, and instead, learning to trust that things unfold exactly as they should. No more people-pleasing. No more outsourcing our decisions. Just deep self-trust and alignment.

Hit play and let’s dive in! 💫

Hey legends, welcome back! This episode is all about the cosmic dance between trusting the universe and making sh*t happen for yourself. Ané and Stacey dive deep into the fine line between surrendering to the flow and stepping up to take action.

🔥 In This Episode, We Chat About:

• Eclipse energy, retrogrades, and why this is the perfect time to reflect and rewire
• When “trusting the universe” turns into avoiding hard choices
• Building self-trust and knowing when to say YES (and when to say HELL NO)
• The challenge of setting boundaries—especially when people-pleasing is the easy way out
• How to navigate external pressures, from business decisions to hospital visits (yep, Stacey’s got a personal story)
• Making the hard choices now so life flows easier later

💡 Big Takeaway:
Trust isn’t just about surrender—it’s a practice. The more you flex your decision-making muscles, the easier it gets to balance intuition with action.

👉 We’d Love to Hear From You!

You ever stop and think about how your beliefs shape your business? That’s exactly what we’re diving into today.

Stacey and Ané are back, chatting about how the decisions you make are filtered through your beliefs, values, and past experiences. Some of these beliefs serve you, and some... well, not so much.

Ané shares how shifting her belief about relationships completely changed the way she attracted people into her life. Stacey tells a hilarious story from a Tony Robbins event where she realized she believed her body fat was "too old" to lose.

So, what do you believe about your business? About money? About success? If your beliefs aren’t supporting you, it might be time for a rewrite.

This episode is packed with practical exercises—like fear inventories and worst-case scenario journaling—to help you uncover hidden beliefs and swap them out for something better. Plus, Ané has a free Canva resource to help you work through your own beliefs.

Ever feel like your body and your to-do list are in a full-on battle? Yeah, same. In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when your body’s screaming for rest, but your brain’s all "nah, we’ve got work to do."

We chat about:
🔥 Learning to actually listen to your body (before it forces you to stop)
🔥 Releasing what no longer serves you—whether that’s old beliefs, tension, or the guilt of slowing down
🔥 Finding a work style that feels good (hint: you don’t have to sit at a desk to be productive)
🔥 Using Yin yoga, EFT tapping, and little rituals to soften and reset
🔥 Trusting that sometimes, the universe is doing the heavy lifting—your job is to surrender

If you’ve been pushing through exhaustion, ignoring those headaches, or feeling guilty for taking a break—this one’s for you. Let’s shift the perspective, find ease in the chaos, and learn to trust the signals our body gives us.

Resources & Mentions:
✨ EFT tapping (because sometimes you just need to karate chop your stress away)
✨ Yin yoga—the ultimate permission slip to slow the hell down
✨ Roald Dahl’s writing shed—proof that you don’t need an “official” workspace to create magic

If this episode hit home, send it to a mate who needs to hear it too. And if you’re loving the pod, drop us a review—it helps more than you know.

See you next time! 💫

Feeling a bit stuck? Like everything’s slowed down and nothing’s growing? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re talking about the winter soul—that internal season where things feel murky, slow, and introspective.

We chat about:
✨ Why everyone seems to be in their ‘inner winter’ right now
✨ The importance of cutting out the noise and going inward
✨ How overstimulation (hello, endless scrolling) is messing with your creativity and nervous system
✨ The power of discomfort and why sitting with it actually helps you move forward
✨ How to transmute frustration into creativity instead of falling into projection

We also share stories about social media detoxes, weird client interactions, and the magic of serving others when you feel stagnant. Plus, we dive into why shadow work is essential and how learning to observe your emotions (instead of absorbing them) changes everything.

Feeling stuck? This one’s for you.

We’re back with another chat, and this one’s all about hobbies! You know, those things you do just for fun—no agenda, no pressure, just joy. Turns out, they can actually make you better at business.

✨ Why following your whims is the best way to pick a new hobby
✨ How hobbies can actually help your business (without you even trying)
✨ The sneaky way the universe opens doors when you follow what excites you
