We've all received advice that made us stop and think - sometimes for the wrong reasons. In this episode, Tanya shares the worst advice she's ever received, and we unpack what makes certain words stick, even when they shouldn't. We close with some of the best advice we've learned along the way and explore how impact and intention shape conversations. Ever walked away from a talk feeling completely misunderstood? We break down the importance of subtext and getting clear on what's actually being said. Tune in for laughs, lessons and a few cringeworthy moments.

Shadow Work... Again.

Ah yes, once again, we touch on the endless journey of shadow work. Being that it is an endless space of exploration, it makes sense that we have dedicated many podcasts to it.

This episode is full of personal successes and failures of journeying into the self in a wildly unpleasant way. Please join in, misery loves company as it were. 

The Cost of Bad Advice (Even When You Pay For It)

Mel unpacks the worst advice she’s ever received—and it came from a paid professional. In this honest episode, she shares how a well-meaning counselor’s guidance led her down a harder path, why she didn’t question it at the time, and what it taught her about discernment, power, and self-trust.

If you’ve ever followed advice that didn’t sit right (especially when you were vulnerable), this one’s for you. Not all support is supportive—and sometimes the detours teach us the most.

What’s the worst advice you’ve ever been given?

Transmutation

Sh*t happens. 

Two guarantees in life: you will die - and you will go through some sh*t. Transmutation is a tool that can help the sh*tty times feel like they're doing something for you - as opposed TO you. It can help us feel more empowered and autonomous.
