What if the very thing you've been taught to fear is actually key to healing?

This episode is a mind-opening conversation with Tania de Jong, a social entrepreneur, performer, and founder of Mind Medicine Australia. Tania shares her unbelievable story: a woman who never touched drugs, never got drunk, and yet found herself stepping into the world of psychedelics for healing.

We get honest about the broken mental health system, the trauma we carry (including intergenerational wounds), and why ancient medicines are finding their rightful place in modern healing. Tania doesn’t just talk theory, she walks us through her personal experience, the science, and what it’s taken to bring psychedelic therapy into the mainstream in Australia.

If you've ever felt let down by conventional treatments, or you're searching for hope in the darkest corners of anxiety, PTSD, or depression, this is one conversation you don’t want to miss.

Key Takeaways

Psychedelics as Medicine – Plant medicines like psilocybin and MDMA offer profound healing far beyond conventional treatments.

The Power of One Dose – Just 2–3 carefully administered psychedelic therapy sessions can produce up to 80% remission in depression and PTSD.

Healing Through Connection – The root of many mental illnesses is disconnection; psychedelics work by restoring a deep sense of unity with self and others.

Ancient Wisdom, Modern Science – These aren't new solutions—they're ancient healing tools finally supported by today’s research.

The Mental Health Crisis is Real – One in four Australians suffers from mental illness, and traditional approaches are often falling short.

Hope is Here – Legal, safe psychedelic therapy is now available in Australia—and it's already transforming lives.

Have you ever sat in total frustration thinking, “Why can’t I keep up?” or “What’s wrong with me?” You’ve done the supplements, the hormone testing, the self-care. You’re trying all the “right” things, and yet you're still exhausted, still not yourself.

This conversation with Human Design expert Aviva Joffe is the permission slip so many of us need. After walking away from a career in New York fashion, feeling completely burnt out, Aviva returned to Melbourne and discovered Human Design in the quiet of the pandemic. It was a full-body exhale. Her chart explained the way she naturally functions something she’d always felt but never understood.

Now, Aviva helps others do the same. Whether you’re navigating a career change, relationship shift, or hormonal rollercoaster, this episode will help you understand your energy, trust your intuition, and stop living by rules that were never meant for you.

Key Takeaways

Your energy type matters – Understanding how you’re built to operate helps you stop burning out and start thriving.

Burnout isn’t always hormonal – Many women are energetically misaligned, not broken.

Stop comparing – You weren’t meant to work, rest, or parent like anyone else.

Live by your design – When you align with your natural energy, decision-making gets easier.

Clarity over hustle – Human Design helps you work smarter by honoring your internal compass.

Self-trust is everything – You don’t need to be fixed. You need to remember who you are.

After being diagnosed with premature menopause, going through failed IVF rounds, and sitting with the grief of it all, Jennifer Edmonds was told her chances of having another baby were close to none. But her body had other plans.

During the stillness of lockdown, Jennifer stumbled across fertility yoga. She wasn’t chasing results anymore. She was simply giving herself permission to pause. What followed was a profound shift in her health, her nervous system, and eventually a natural pregnancy she never thought possible. We talked about medical misdiagnosis, cortisol, trauma, and how powerful it can be to tune back into the rhythms of your own body.

For any woman who’s ever felt like the system has failed her, or her body has let her down, Jennifer’s story is one of possibility, self-trust, and unexpected healing.

Key Takeaways

Misdiagnosis Isn’t the End – Jennifer was told she was in menopause, but her body proved otherwise once it had the space and support to heal.

Nervous System First – Chronic stress, insomnia, and hormone imbalance all began to shift when Jennifer focused on calming her nervous system.

Fertility Yoga with Purpose – Matching movement to each phase of the cycle helped regulate hormones, improve sleep, and bring the body back into rhythm.

Doing Less to Heal More – Letting go of constant appointments, supplements, and pressure gave her body room to do what it was designed to do.

Safety Over Strategy – It wasn’t another protocol that worked—it was the embodied feeling of safety that allowed her body to conceive.

From Pressure to Possibility – When she stopped pushing and surrendered to presence, the path to natural conception became clear.
