I speak with a dear friend Sophie Trew about self leadership. Sophie was diagnosed with blood cancer at 23 and went on a sovereign journey of self-healing. She shares about following her instinct to find the right route for her to heal from her cancer diagnosis and her work to create the world's first holistic cancer awareness festival, Trew Fields. Sophie is an inspirational leader of her own life and also shares about Kris Hallenga, a friend and inspiration to her to really live life.

About Sophie

I am a Breathwork Coach and Holistic Cancer Guide. I work to empower people beyond a diagnosis to take an active role in their health, realise their self-healing capacities and to achieve their unique health goals. I run monthly online Breathwork for cancer groups and work with clients globally on a 1:1 basis.

After being diagnosed with blood cancer in 2014 when I was 23, I became my own guide spending years researching and training in holistic health. I now have almost 10 years of study and experience in the field of holistic health. I teach breathwork to creatives, companies, speak at conferences and festivals. I work with 1-on-1 clients looking to improve their mental, emotional and physical health in a personalised, trauma-informed way using breathwork, nervous system tools, energy healing, mindset coaching, meditations and visualisations. These sessions guide people to tap into the full potential of their breath for self-discovery, to reduce stress, increase energy, support healing and creativity.

I speak with Jasmeen Hana about her current work to create an emerging temple village/ sanctuary in Egypt. We talk about what it takes to make our visions and sense of destiny happen, and the circular path that often brings us back to exactly where we started. Crucially, we have to have the journey to be truly ready. Jasmeen is a devotee to the Egyptian mysteries and shares about her relationship with Egypt and lessons from the indigenous elders she is working alongside.

About Jasmeen

Jasmeen Hana, of Egyptian heritage, grew up in Cairo, where her transformative journey into ancient wisdom and self-discovery began in her teenage years. By her early twenties, she had delved into Vipassana meditation, yoga, shamanic practices, and the sacred use of the blue lotus in tea ceremonies. In her mid twenties she expanded her path through acting and tantra, exploring the deep embodiment of emotion and energy.

At 30, Jasmeen became a facilitator with the International School of Temple Arts where for the past nine years, she has guided individuals through profound, life-changing experiences.

During that time she also dedicated herself to offering shamanic journeys through Egypt in the form of her beloved Nile journeys.

As a devotee of Auset (Isis), Jasmeen is passionate about building conscious communities that foster healing and transformation. She founded Bliss School as an online platform for holistic education, ritual, and growth. Through her work, Jasmeen bridges ancient Egyptian wisdom with modern practices, empowering others to connect with their roots and embody their full potential.

She is currently married and lives in the south of Egypt in a regenerative emerging temple village/ sanctuary.

I speak with Carly Rae Beaudry about walking the talk in leadership. We talk about integrity, impact and putting the work into creating the life that so many of us desire. Carly shares about her deep connection to her land and animals and how we can learn about true leadership - as leadership of the life principle - through humility and working with the elements, the animal kingdom and the majesty of the human body.

About Carly

My path of specializing in female biology + hands on hands in pelvic work started, as many others do, healing my own body from sexual abuse, medical gynecological injury, birth control use, a fractured connection from my womanhood + lineage. And the personal initiations of drug and alcohol addiction, STI’s, IUD’s, abortions, miscarriages, to healing myself from chronic pelvic inflammation, endometriosis and premature ovarian failure, sexual and sensual reclamation.

I believe in the journey of descent, so l dove head first into the pain, pleasure, teachings, wisdom, infinite potential my womb had to show me. To know her and be able to fully walk this path.

I am a guide into the depths of the female terrain, anatomy, and physiology.

I walk with women through our full Womb Continuum, exploring the layers of our flesh, feminine intelligence, and primal bodies. Merging the worlds of sacred and science.

All of my work is devoted to the innate intelligence within every cell of our body and to the remembrance of our feminine nature.

I speak with Shamanic Teacher and Healer Jez Hughes about shamanism and teachings from indigenous peoples raised in an animist culture - who believe in the aliveness and connection between everything. We also talk about the leadership of the shaman. A role in service to the community, creating healing for people and reciprocity between people and the earth, and how many modern medical crises of the Western world are an indication of 'soul sickness' and disconnection from land-based cultures and practices.

About Jez

Jez is the founder of Second Sight. He has studied shamanism intensively for twenty five years with various teachers, from both contemporary shamanism and indigenous elders across the globe.

He has a worked full time as a shamanic healer and teacher for nearly twenty years, treating thousands of people from the U.K and across Europe.

He works closely with the indigenous Wixarika (Huichol) nation of north central Mexico, as a cultural liaison for their work in the U.K. and also through a ten-year commitment to apprentice with the sacred sites and teachers of their land.

He is one of the founding directors of the Maye Takuta Foundation which is dedicated to the support and preservation of indigenous communities worldwide.

His own initiation involved a fifteen-year journey through various mental illnesses, physical convulsions and psychotic breaks before finding a cure in shamanism.

His passion is restoring connections to the ancestral lineages and land that has lost its traditions.

His work has featured all across the national press and on ITV television and BBC radio. He is the author of The Wisdom of Mental Illness- Shamanism, Mental Health & the Renewal of World and The Heart of Life- Shamanic Initiation & Healing in the Modern World.

I speak with Raffaello Manacorda about leadership, power and looking at life through an archetypal lens. We talk about how the current archetype of the 'strong man' is playing out on the world stage and themes around collective consciousness, integrity and projections of power onto those seemingly 'in charge'.

About Raffaello

Raffaello Manacorda is an international Tantra teacher and practitioner. He has been practicing Tantra for more than 15 years and has undergone intensive training in several styles of Yoga. After completing an MA in Philosophy, Raffaello decided to spend more than twelve years living in alternative communities and experimenting with radically alternative lifestyles.

It was in these wild years that he first encountered Tantra, the "rebel way to Spirit". This encounter developed into a life-long practice, first on a solo journey, then studying Tantra and Yoga in some of the best worldwide schools. Raffaello serves as lead faculty in ISTA, the International School of Temple Arts, and teaches and lectures worldwide. He is currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program in Wisdom Studies with Ubiquity University (California).

Raffaello is the co-creator of the ISTA Practitioner Training (PT), ISTA’s program for coaches and practitioners in the field of conscious sexuality.
