Welcome to The Wildheart Diaries - a podcast for brave souls, sensitives and spiritual detectives. Finding yourself after abuse or childhood trauma is a bit like solving a mystery or doing a jigsaw puzzle, without the box. It's not fun though. It's hard and it's lonely. What really helps is having a friend who gets you and sits with you while you figure it all out. That will be me then! Hello, I'm Lisa. I want to share my healing adventures with you - the practical and the woo. I've recorded these chats to give you hope, comfort and the courage to follow your wild heart.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, it's Mother's Day in the UK, and I invite you to make a important promise to mother yourself. I delve into the complex emotions surrounding Mother's Day.I open up about how a recent visit to the hospital reminded me of the strong mind-body connection. Physical pain shows us where there is emotional pain to be healed. I also reveal how a lack of mothering the self, and over mothering others is the pattern we must break as highly sensitive Wildhearts who are often burnt out from overgiving and emotionally care taking others.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I invite you to explore reparenting your highly sensitive Wildheart self with the same care and consideration you would give to a small child. There are two essential ingredients that will transform your relationships and empower you to navigate the world with a newfound sense of resilience and compassion. I also share how enmeshment and scapegoating played out in my family growing up, and how my four legged friend, Moe has been a big part of learning how to reparent my inner child.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I talk about last night's journaling class at my winter retreat. It was so powerful. Thanks to the three gorgeous Wildhearts who showed up and brought the energy of overwhelm. It's a super helpful one to work through in the stressful in the run up to Christmas. There was so much compassion, insight and understanding about what overwhelm meant for us, and how we can respond to it in a way that doesn't make us feel crushed, inadequate, stuck or irritated.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about emotional manipulation and what makes highly sensitive people an easy target for toxic types, narcissists and abusers. I'll explain:
Remember: Narcissists are toddlers trapped in adult bodies. They don't have any power, if you know how to hold on to your own. Don't waste time trying to change them, focus on healing and protecting yourself. You are the priority!

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I am talking how when we are healing from childhood trauma or going through change, we sometimes feel blocked or stuck. Yet, this is all part of the process and there is more to it than that. Feeling stuck is a sign that you’re in a space of fear and afraid to let go. The fear is real and I totally get it. Let’s have a look at that together. What do you need to let go of right now to unstick yourself and set yourself free! Pour yourself a cuppa, grab your journal and listen in.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about a pattern of toxic relating where one person is over giving and the other taking which leads to burnout and resentment.
Do you often find yourself in relationships with people who aren't interested in the real you, only what you can do for them? Or people who are using you as an emotional buffer, or a reason not to take responsibility for their own life?
Is it time to break that pattern and let real love in? Yes, it's time to set yourself free from putting everybody first, being the peace maker, or the good girl, and swallowing your words. No more put up and shut up. It's time to find your voice!

Do you ever think you're going crazy or you're too sensitive? Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about self-gaslighting - the voice in your head that minimises, denies and dismisses your own reality or version of events. Do you do this to yourself? It's like chronic self-doubt Fear not, I have found a way to stop the exhausting overthinking and ruminating.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm rehearsing for a talk I was asked to give to parents who are cycle breakers. I share how generational trauma is passed on in families. It's interesting to explore how our parents stress responses impact us as children, and influence how we parent ourselves or our children. How can we break these generational cycles of pain and trauma?

I share with you forty ways to love yourself more...without feeling guilty, bad or selfish.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm exploring self-love and inviting you to identify your self-love language. The 5 Love Languages by Gary Chapman, is a concept that simplifies the ways we experience and express love in relationships. Self-love is about the relationship we have with ourselves. I think it's the most important one. Lots of you have told me that you want to love yourself more. So let's explore together the practical ways that you can show yourself love.To get all the links and the full show notes visit www.smileyforlife.com/self-love-language.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm sharing an online chat I had over a cuppa about all things self-love. Are you stuck in the Good Girl archetype where you people please your way to burn out? Don't! I'm going to explain why there's nothing wrong with you. I'll talk about why societal beauty 'norms' and Botox make it challenging to love yourself. I'm going to share how journaling has been my best therapy when it comes to self-love, and reveal my go-to comfort foods. Diets don't work! Do you know why? Listen on....and learn more about self-punishment, self-blame and feeling unlovable. I've been there too and it sucks. Yes, it's that nasty, mean inner critic that will hold you back and take you down into shame spirals. There's so much to share with you. Grab a cuppa and listen in.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm sharing my experience of how my seemingly innocent inner teen crush on Johnny Depp led me to some interesting discoveries. In fact, it held up a mirror to the young parts of me I could not see, and also helped me see how as an adult, I show up in relationships in a way that doesn't serve me at all. If you can relate and you find yourself in one-sided relationships where you do more giving, or feel overly responsible, this one is for you.To get all the links and the full show notes visit https://smileyforlife.com/are-you-always-the-fixer-or-rescuer

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I’m talking about how we can set our day up for success. As sensitive Wildhearts, it's important to learn to manage our energy and it’s well worth carving out some time for you every morning, so you don’t end up giving from an empty cup. Otherwise we can end up feeling stressed, resentful and overwhelmed by life. Have a listen and take what you need, so you can start your day off energised and feeling good about yourself.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm reaching out to all the lovely Wildhearts who are really good at working out what other people need and supporting them, but not very good at doing the same for themselves. In fact, they are very likely to find themselves at the bottom of the to-do list, or not feeling like they can ask for help. Is that you? Or maybe you're unhappy where you are or you feel stuck or overwhelmed, but aren't sure what's next.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I’m talking about those days when you feel really down on yourself. I thought this was relevant right now as we approach Christmas, as this can be such a depressing time for many. So what do you do when you’re all out of faith and have absolutely no idea what will make it better? Some people call this a ‘dark night of the soul’. You know, when you’re undergoing big changes or people are leaving your life. You feel afraid and uncertain as you face the unknown. You wonder if you will make it out and when you do, what that will look like. Everything that was once familiar is no longer. Have a listen to the episode to remember who you are and how you can get your faith back.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I am talking about the icky and messy parts of healing that people don’t talk about. I don’t just mean the snotty intense feelings of grief and the pain of facing your past. No, I’m talking about how the people around you react to your personal growth, how much money it costs (you’re worth it), and how it can be frustrating and soul destroying to feel like you’re starting all over again. All is not lost though. When you come out the other side and you stop living in survival mode, you’ll be so glad that you did.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I’m talking about how our relationship with our father shapes our lives. We'll be exploring absent fathers (physical and emotional), how critical and harsh parenting impacts our self-esteem and how in the narcissistic family system, some fathers are blocked from having emotional access to their children. This unwritten rule deeply wounds and abandons the child, because the father prioritises the relationship with their narcissistic mother. The child is left unprotected from the narcissistic mother's cruel abuse, and longs for love and approval. In adulthood, this sets the child up for unfulfilling relationships and a belief that they are unworthy of love.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, we’re going to meet your inner teen. Whatever you couldn’t master before the age 12 was to become a major stumbling block in these awkward years. We’re going to journal on that teen awkwardness. At that time in our lives, most of us were full of angst. We’ll explore self-consciousness around the body, social anxiety, embarrassing romantic encounters, and the rebellious, raging fire within.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about one of the 5Rs of Self Love - Rambling. Why talking to yourself is healing and how it actually helps you? Is it time to take back your power and find your voice. It could be a better alternative to journaling if you find it hard to know what to write when there is a blank page in front of you, or you edit yourself just in case somebody else finds it and reads it.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about how being a Wildheart (or a highly empathic and highly sensitive person) means that you're very likely taking in the energy from your environment and focused on that for the most part, instead of yourself. That can be exhausting. It also means it's very hard to stay with yourself or stay grounded in your own energy in relationships, especially when conflict arises.

You'll hear me talk about how when left unhealed trauma is passed on to the next generation. These are strong energies that gather momentum and repeat themselves until somebody breaks the cycle.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about how to call your power back to you when you feel broken.When you come from a toxic family system, you don’t have a healthy blueprint for love and your spirit will feel like it’s been broken somehow. Luckily for you, and me, spirits are strong and cannot be broken. They can momentarily be shrunk, disowned, denied or frozen (survival techniques), but in the right conditions they will emerge strong again. Possibly stronger.
To reignite your spirit and allow it to shimmer and shine, you need to free it from the toxic crap under which it is buried.
The good news? You hold the key to its freedom. happy dance It may take some time and it may be emotional but I think you’re worth it.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about toxic and sometimes abusive relationships. The ones that hold you down and make you feel like you have to edit your true self. They can be confusing and frustrating. You can feel misunderstood or dismissed. Sometimes this is hidden and not always obvious at first glance - think wolf in sheep's clothing. Let's have a look at the red flags, some of which need to be felt. If something feels off, it most likely is. Your intuition is definitely your best friend when it comes to who you let into your inner circle.

I invite you to come and reflect some more with me on this journaling adventure.

This is a daily practice I've cultivated over time and it's helped me get rid of chronic self-doubt, dissolve overwhelm and believe in myself again. Take out your journal and let's start thinking about how we can find pockets of time to integrate more self-love into your life.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries we’re looking at your mental chatter and emotional states. I explore self-doubt, intrusive thoughts and faulty thinking styles. I also ask the question: ‘Are emotions contagious?’ and show you how to do emotional equations. This is part of a series on your toxic puddle – the energy that you live in which is both inside and outside of you.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about the power and complexities of the Mothership. Let's explore why for years, women lose themselves in their children and in mothering others, leaving themselves at the bottom of the pile (after the laundry and washing up). How is it that we think being a good mother is to run ourselves ragged taking care of others, when we don't even know how to fully love ourselves? I think it's time to reclaim this day and take back our power. Instead of waiting for people to celebrate and appreciate you, it's your time to focus on what makes you truly happy.

Everything you want from life is on the other side of loving yourself....MORE!
You’re NOT too sensitive, unlovable, unworthy or too much. It’s NOT that you’re failing when you don’t have time for self-care or things that make you happy. I bet you’re exhausted from trying though. It’s because nobody has ever shown you how to love and honour yourself…just as you are! It’s never too late to learn.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries we're diving into your toxic puddle. Well, actually it's not something you want to dive in to. Your toxic puddle is the energy you live in and it impacts you and your life, perhaps more than you realise. It's a juicy one and as usual, there are lots of journal prompts to get you thinking. This is quite a big topic and is the first in a series of 5 episodes.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries I'm feeling reflective as Valentine's Day comes around again. It's my birthday and so I want to celebrate us and acknowledge the importance of loving yourself. Do you put yourself first? Do you treat yourself in all the loving, thoughtful ways you love others? Do you let love in? Let's talk more about why loving others seems easier than loving your fabulous Wildheart self.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries I'm taking you on a walk with me across the stunning Surrey Hills as I share with you my daily journal practice and acknowledge the power of your pen. This has been an essential part of my healing from C-PTSD and a great way to reconnect with yourself if you're overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, anxiety and catastrophic thinking. If you want to set up a daily journaling practice, I hope this will inspire you and give you some food for thought.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries I’m talking about starting all over again. I’m not a stranger to turning the page and freeing myself from situations that aren’t in alignment with my values. It’s not easy. It takes time, faith and Wildheart courage. It’s also overwhelming and scary. That’s why many of us stay stuck in toxic situation-ships and repeatedly do things which are no good for us. It’s better the devil you know, right?
To start this new adventure with you has felt like starting over again. I’m going to share that process with you – how I got here and why I had to let go of so much to create space for the new to come in. Letting go is not as easy as it sounds you know!
