We discuss her journey of healing and learning self love and acceptance which led her to creating a healing hub and safe space for others to heal also.

Despite being in remission, the effects of suppressing feelings and stress were felt long afterwards. She spent many years living with anxiety, depression and having an overall toxic relationship with herself.

On this episode I had the honour of chatting with the absolutely inspiring Jacintha Field (Integrative Nutrition & Health Coach).
As you will hear in this episode, Jacintha felt lost and out of alignment with her true self. Every Sunday morning for years, she woke up extremely hungover, wanting a better life for herself and her son Axel. So in the past decade, she has turned her life around. She always felt a little different to everyone else so she did a lot of inner work to find out who she was. She now runs her own business and has gone from having a cluttered, negative mind to focusing on gratitude and the positive aspects in life.
