    When was the last time you truly played… not to achieve, not to improve, not to produce… but simply to feel alive?

    Many women spend years focused on responsibility, productivity, and self-improvement, only to find themselves disconnected from joy, creativity, and their inner spark. In this heartfelt conversation, we explore why play is not frivolous, but essential to wellbeing, creativity, and living authentically.

    • Understand why play is a powerful gateway to creativity, healing, and personal growth
    • Learn why fear, judgement, and busyness keep so many women disconnected from joy
    • Discover gentle ways to reconnect with the playful, expressive part of yourself


    Key Takeaways

    • Why play is a powerful catalyst for creativity and new ideas
    • The difference between consuming self-help and embodying transformation
    • How fear of judgement and rejection keeps many women stuck
    • Why reconnecting with childhood joys can reveal powerful clues about your creative essence
    • The relationship between play, nervous system regulation, and emotional wellbeing
    • Why taking small risks leads to growth, expansion, and deeper self-trust
    • How community and shared experiences amplify joy and healing

  • The Shift From Consuming to Creating: Reclaiming Your Inner Wisdom in a Self-help Obsessed World | Sam Horton

    What if the reason you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected isn’t because you’re not doing enough inner work — but because you’re doing too much consuming and not enough creating?

    In this solo episode, Sam explores a quiet but powerful imbalance many growth-oriented women live with every day. We are surrounded by podcasts, books, courses, and frameworks promising clarity and transformation, yet so often we feel full of information and disconnected from our own inner wisdom.

    This episode gently names the hidden trap of self-help culture — how it can turn us into chronic consumers of growth — and offers a nourishing reframe. Creativity is not an optional extra or indulgence. It is the missing integration tool that allows insight to become embodied truth.

    Sam shares why creativity is essential for digesting what we learn, restoring energetic balance, and reconnecting with the answers that already live within us.

    In this episode, you’ll explore:

    • Why personal development culture often prioritises consumption over embodiment
    • How consuming information can feel like progress but still leave you stuck
    • The difference between mental insight and lived transformation
    • Why creativity helps your nervous system process, integrate, and release
    • How art-making, journaling, and self-expression restore clarity and self-trust
    • Why you don’t need more answers — you need more creativity and expression

    This episode is a gentle invitation to pause, soften, and shift from constantly reaching outward to listening inward — and to reclaim creativity as a sacred pathway back to yourself.

    Reflection Question

    What might change if, instead of seeking one more answer, you gave yourself permission to express what you already know?

    What if healing didn’t require fixing, analysing, or reliving your pain, but simply witnessing your story with compassion?

    In this powerful conversation, I’m joined by professional artist and creative healer Devorah Brinckerhoff, whose life journey led her to create the Soul Portrait process, a deeply intuitive form of healing through art and creativity that supports emotional release, trauma healing, and soul connection. Together, we explore how soulful creativity allows us to witness our stories without becoming trapped inside them, and how self-witnessing becomes a gateway to inner freedom, empowerment, and deep healing.

    • How Devorah’s healing journey gave birth to the Soul Portrait process
    • Why witnessing your story is more powerful than trying to fix or analyse it
    • How healing through art and creativity supports emotional release and self-trust
    • The role of intuitive art-making in spiritual awakening for midlife women
    • Why you don’t need artistic skill to heal through creativity
    • How soulful creativity reconnects you with your inner truth

    Key Takeaways:

    • Healing through art and creativity allows emotional energy to move gently and safely
    • Self-witnessing is a powerful act of transformation
    • Creativity reconnects us with soul truth beyond words
    • Trauma can become a gateway to spiritual awakening and empowerment
