In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss persistence and how, when you are looking at whether you need to persist with something or not, you need to listen to your heart and see if it feels right to persist. They look at the importance of desire for the outcome and to know that the end goal is achievable.
They suggest that is it important to set achievable objectives so that you can see positive progress being made. If positive progress isn't being made, then they suggest that you need to stop and ask yourself if it is the right thing to persist, or does something need to change for you to get the outcome you desire.
They also look at the persistence of direction and persistence of action and how important it is to ensure you are heading in the right direction and, if you are, that you persist with the actions needed to reach the desired outcome.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez explore critical thinking and whether it is the polar opposite of working with your intuition. They look at how, when you are critically thinking, you are exploring a subject without bias to gain greater insight and understanding so helping you to find your own truth. This works best when you combine it with working with your intuition.
If we are in our heads and questioning things, then we can easily talk ourselves out of something that, deep within us, we know is right for us and we will react to the feelings of fear rather than acknowledging those feelings and responding by putting an action plan in place.
It is important to look at everything from a neutral place without judgment so that you can see that it just is. This way you can come to greater insight and understanding yourself. They remind you of the importance of going inward for answers as this is where you know will access the knowledge that you need.

In this podcast Sarah and Jez explore whether we truly value ourselves and within that discussion look at how we often make comparisons that aren't like for like. They ask whether you recognise the value in a course, an experience etc., to be comfortable in investing in it, not just from a financial point of view but time and energy too. They suggest that if you are meant to do something the universe will find a way of bringing that something to you. They also feel that valuing yourself links to belief in yourself, and suggest that when you believe you are worth investing, in you are more likely to take care of yourself.
They look at the importance of having healthy boundaries in place and being happy with who you are. They suggest that, when we truly value ourselves, we are open to opportunities and will embrace them and the change that they bring so that we can continue to learn, grow and develop.

In this session, Sarah and Jez explore what spirituality is and how it can mean different things to different people, as we are all at different places in our journey. They suggest that spirituality relates to moving out of your head and into your heart so that you start to explore the meaning of life as it is to you.
They also suggest that your understanding of what spirituality is can change as you move along your path and come to a greater understanding of yourself. They also discuss how each person's viewpoint will be slightly different but not wrong, and will relate to how they experience the world. They also explore how questioning things is important, as long as it is for the right reasons as it will help you to gain clarity and insight into what resonates with you, as spirituality is an individual thing.

In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss what healing is looking at the importance of going inwards to come to a greater understanding of yourself and what makes you think, feel act the way you do. They discuss how we heal in many ways and that many forms of healing have been around for thousands of years.
They suggest looking at ourselves holistically to come to an understanding of why we experience any symptoms we are experiencing, as symptoms are highlighting to us that something is wrong. They talk about how medicine has its place and how many more medical practitioners are becoming more open to alternative modalities.
They discuss the importance of understanding that we can heal ourselves and that healing is a journey not a quick fix as we are peeling away the layers of what we have pushed down and avoided addressing. They talk about the importance of forgiveness and when new are resentful, angry or upset with others we are actually hurting ourselves the most, and so when we heal we come to understand that we need to be more loving and nurturing of ourselves so that we can be more loving and kind to others.
They explore how healing always starts with yourself and how those people that irritate us the most are our greatest teachers. They remind us that we are not the disease or the symptoms we are experiencing symptoms because we need healing to bring body, mind and spirit back into balance.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss how we have a tendency to compare ourselves to others which can lead us into a negative spiral of not feeling good enough. They remind us that we only see what people want us to see and that when we compare ourselves to others, we are essentially comparing the best of the other person with the worst of us.
They suggest that it can be helpful to have someone/something to aspire to/inspire us as this helps our motivation to develop and progress, but when we compare ourselves to others we are not comparing ‘like for like’. If we aren't careful, we can end up looking for evidence to support the feeling that we aren't good enough.
They also suggest that if we find ourselves comparing ourselves with others, we need to acknowledge what we are doing and then ask ourselves why we feel the need to do this. We also need to recognise that we always progress at the rate we need to and that we are always exactly where we need to be.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez look again at listening and discuss what "actively listening" is and how, when we are focused on the person talking to us, we help them to feel heard, seen and appreciated.
They explore the importance of allowing people to express their opinion, even if we don't agree with them, and also of expressing how they are feeling, so that they can process information and come to the answers they are looking for themselves.
They also discuss listening to ourselves and how we need to allow ourselves to be silent and then feel into whether something is correct for us or not. We live such busy lives still and there are lots of distractions, so when you allow yourself to be quiet and let go of the distractions you give yourself space to process and allow the information/answers you are looking for to easily come to you.
They also remind us of the importance of being open to answers coming to us in different ways and not always at the time when we allow ourselves to be quiet and in the moment.
They suggest that actively listening is a skill that we can all develop and that it comes from being in the heart so that we are listening from the heart, which then allows us to respond rather than react.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez discuss ego and how it is there to keep us safe but needs to work in harmony with our hearts. When we are in our heads we are working more with ego, which can lead us to be judgemental, and to believe that our way is the right way no matter what.
They remind us that when we are in our hearts we see things from a place of love and compassion and we are not being driven by ego. They also suggest that ego can reinforce limiting beliefs as it is part of the mechanism that helps us to integrate experiences.
They look at the importance of relaxing and feeling what we need to do in emotive situations rather than letting ego jump in and so we need to become aware of what is ego and what is heart. They discuss how when we are ego/head led, we can be driven forward in the wrong way, but when we are in our hearts, the innate wisdom and understanding is there for us to see the correct way to deal with the issue that needs to be addressed. Being in your heart creates ease and flow and so makes the path forward much easier.

In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss the importance of having an awareness of the language that we use and how it can help bring what we want in our lives towards us or push it away from us. They discuss how, when we take a step back from an emotive situation/discussion and ensure that we are in our hearts, we respond in a loving heart-felt way rather than react. They also suggest that when we are wanting to manifest something we need to ensure that we don't limit that experience being brought to us by putting a time frame on it, as this way we miss the opportunities that are being brought to us by the universe. They also remind us that we need to embrace the energy of what it is we are looking to experience; i.e. live how it would make us feel to have that experience, item, relationship etc. They suggest that we think too much from a head-centred space and that when we are in our hearts, clarity comes to us and we have a deeper inner knowing of what is right for us.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez suggest that to be able to love and respect others and to receive love and respect we must first truly love and respect ourselves. They remind us of the importance of going inwards to discover if there is something that needs to be addressed and also to look at if there is a values conflict. They remind us that quiet reflection can help us to feel into whether there is something that we need to deal with, and if there is and we don't deal with it, the universe will find ways of bringing the issues to our attention until we do deal with them.
They look at how giving and receiving go hand and hand and need to flow, and how when they are in flow there is no expectation. They remind us of the importance of healthy boundaries in all areas of our lives as these are a way of showing others that we love and respect ourselves.
Learning to love ourselves is a journey of self-discovery and so we need to have an awareness first of all, that change is needed. We can then go inward to look at what we need to change but we need to be truly open and honest with ourselves when we do this, looking at ourselves without judgment so that we can identify where the issues lie and what we need to change.
They remind us that we are always the best version of ourselves in every moment and that we all have our own perspectives and so we all interpret the world around us differently which doesn't make our interpretation wrong.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez explore doing the best we can and how, when we accept that we are always doing the best we can, it changes our perspective. They discuss how even as babies we want to please our parents and others around us and that we are taught our parent's values and beliefs because that is what they know. They suggest that we need to focus on what we are good at, i.e. where our gifts lie so that we can get the best out of ourselves and from others.
They look at how it is important to move into the heart and absorb information rather than learn it in a cognitive way, and how we can all go inward to access the universal knowledge which can help us to grow and develop and move forward.
They remind us how young children show us how to be truly in our hearts and in the moment. They also suggest that if we are unhappy, we need to look at why we are unhappy and what we can change to make us feel happy again.
They also discuss how our decisions are based on the knowledge we have in that moment, and so they are always the best decisions that we can make in that moment, even if the outcome of the decision is not as we expected/wanted. They also suggest that success is not linked to other people’s ideals and standards, but is about evolving and growing, and doing what makes our hearts sing.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss how we all experience times in our lives that feel ’tough,’ so it is important to make sure that our persistence in working through those times is for the highest good. They remind us that when we are moving through an intense period it’s easy to question things and go into our heads rather than sit with them in our hearts to gain insight into the way forward.
They explore how resistance is an indication that we need to look at the situation, go inwards, drop into our hearts and see what needs to be addressed, to enable us to make the correct decisions. They remind us that each of us knows what is right for us, and so we need to listen to ourselves but this needs to be done from the heart.
We can become our biggest critic when we are in our heads but this just chips away at our self-confidence. It is important for us to move out of our comfort zone to be able to grow. They also discuss how sometimes we need to put questions out to the universe or have a discussion with someone without needing answers for the insight to be given to us. We can use how we are feeling as a barometer as to whether we are in our hearts, knowing that when we have a sense of peace and calm we are in our hearts and when we are stressed or agitated we have moved into our heads.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez look at how habits are often ingrained in us over a period of time, so we need to find the root cause relating to them to heal, to make it easier to create the change that we feel is for our highest good. They discuss how there may be several things that need to be addressed and how when you look at things energetically, it may be layers of energy that need clearing to assist the process of letting go. Changing old habits is not always straightforward and so we need to be kind to ourselves if things slip back, and recognise that we need to see if something else needs addressing for us to be able to move forward again with that change. We need to break the old pathways and ways of thinking so that the change that is needed can be brought in.
They also look at the desire to change and how if we want to change, feel it's for our highest good and value the change then it will be a lot easier to put the change in place. They remind us of the importance of being in our hearts when looking at change so that we are doing it for the right reasons. They also remind us that change isn't necessarily about walking away from something but taking the time to go inward, to reflect so that you have awareness and then take the action that feels right for you. They remind us of the importance of not judging ourselves in the situation but just being curious so that we can understand what needs to be addressed.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez explore how having complete trust in yourself might change your approach to life. They look at what having complete trust in yourself means to them and remind us that failing just means that you haven't achieved the expected outcome, which might not be the outcome that you need.
They remind us how it is a lot easier to trust ourselves when we are in our hearts and that when the voice of self-doubt is chatting to us it is there to keep us safe but doesn't always serve us as it can such us onto our heads. They remind us that when we see any situation or experience as a learning it allows us to trust ourselves more fully. They look at how young children can remind us of how it is to be in the moment and to be trusting of ourselves and how we lose that childlike curiosity as we move into adulthood.
When we can see that we are all making progress, we can see that we are all successful and so can fully trust ourselves to bring us the experiences that we need for the growth and learning that we want to have.
-
In this episode, Sarah and Jez discuss the importance of reframing a challenge as an opportunity for learning/growth. They discuss how when something feels challenging it can push you into fight or flight physically and so stress levels go up, pushing you into your head. They remind us that the universe sends us more of what we are focusing on so if we see things as a challenge we will find more things coming to us that we see as a challenge until we shift the mindset.
Sarah and Jez look at how, if you go into a state of panic, you can't feel into the situation as you have moved into your head, and that a problem is only a problem if we make it one, and this then comes back to our perception of the situation and whether we are in our head or our heart. They remind us of the importance of letting go of the outcome and trusting that it will be what it needs to be.
They also remind us that we have all the resources within us to help us to deal with any challenge, but we have been programmed to look outside of ourselves. When we break the cycle of stress that a challenge creates and drop back into our hearts and so reconnect with ourselves, we gain clarity and our perception changes so that we can see the situation for what it is, an opportunity for change, for growth, to be able to move forward.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez explore the importance of being creative and how it helps you to be in your heart, and so, in the moment. They explore how easy it is to get caught up in 'doing' rather than 'being' and how preschool children can show us how to be creative and 'be' the majority of the time.
They look at how playing with young children and letting them take the lead can help you to be in the moment. They discuss how exploring our creative side can help our healing journey as it allows self-expression. They also discuss how we can be creative without ever showing our drawings, paintings, creative writing etc to anyone else. They remind us that looking after ourselves is very important and that the most important thing is love.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez look at the learning cycle and discuss their perception of it and how learning is a continuous cycle which allows us to grow on many levels. They discuss how for some things we need external knowledge but that we need to go within to take us to that external knowledge that we need for our journey.
As we are presented with information, they suggest the importance of absorbing it with the heart and feeling into it, to see if it resonates with us. What is our truth will be affected by our experiences, beliefs and values and that is ok, as it is part of our journey. They explore the importance of being curious and questioning things, as this shows we are engaged and not just accepting that something is truth, just because we are told it is.
They look at how when we are learning it expands our comfort zone as well as our knowledge and how we cycle through learning something new, feeling a bit uncomfortable as we are pushed out of our comfort zone, then becoming comfortable with the knowledge/skill and so expanding our comfort zone before going on to learn something else that's new and repeating the cycle.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez explore self-belief and where it originates. They look at the learning cycle and how that can affect self-belief. They suggest that we will have all experienced a lack of self-belief at some point in our lives. They remind us of the importance of focusing on positive changes and observing how far we have come during our journey. They remind us that we are exactly where we need to be.
When we are doing what we love and are happy then we build our self-belief and self-confidence. The learnings that we experience can also help to build our self-belief as well. When we find ourselves being moved out of our comfort zone then it can affect our self-belief but if we are to grow then we need to be willing to allow ourselves to be pushed out of our comfort zone.
Sarah and Jez also look at how sometimes we are offered so many choices that decision-making can be difficult and soo this then has a knock-on effect with self-belief and we can find ourselves in a position of if we do nothing then there is no risk, but of course, then there is no learning either.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez look at success and failure and how they go hand in hand. They discuss how failing is not failing but providing us with a way of learning and so moving to success. They remind us that an outcome is just an outcome and when it isn't the outcome we expect then it becomes a learning for us.
They remind us how important it is to focus on the positive and what we have achieved rather than what we feel is negative. We need to learn from our experiences to be able to grow. Everyone's perception of what is success and what is failure is different and is filtered by our experiences and reference points. They also remind us that we are being given opportunities to learn about ourselves and who we truly are from all the experiences that we have.
-
In this session, Sarah and Jez look at how everything happens when it should and may not be the outcome we were looking for but will be what is needed. They discuss the importance of having dreams and objectives and how it is important to let go of the time frame for it to happen so that we can allow the universe to bring the opportunities and experiences we need to achieve our dream/goal.
They also explore how, when we allow things to come when they are meant to, they will come in ways that we may not expect. They also look at the importance of being more self-aware and learning to notice whether you are in your heart or your head so that everything flows. They remind us that everything that has happened in our lifetime has been to bring us to where we are now, in this moment.
