The Soul Alchemist

Are you open (fully open) to receiving?  Is there space in your heart so all the things you desire (all the good stuff) can get it?
In this week’s episode we look at the relationship between giving and receiving.  How 'over giving' causes us to feel exhausted and resentful, and how an inability to receive robs us of our fulfilment and joy.
I share 4 practical steps to expand your ability to receive and share with you how receiving can help you feel joyous and fulfilled and restore your connection to having more magic and abundance in your life.

Why do we need a ‘bigger vision’ and why can it be difficult to connect to it?  In this episode I explain what a "bigger vision" actually is, why it matters and why we can feel disconnected from it.  We will explore:
Your fight or flight response.
Cultural blocks that may be prohibiting you from connecting with your inner King or Queen.
The Rebels resistance to authority.

This episode is inspired by a question and a very honest sharing from Amanda about her procrastination.
For many people procrastination is caused by fear; fear of failure or fear of success.  But Amanda had already explored her fear and still couldn’t get to the root of her procrastination.  When this is the case we need to go deeper and meet the archetype who is responsible for discipline, consistency and getting things done … your Inner Warrior.  This week you will meet your Warrior and discover why it’s out of balance or burnt out.
Welcome to the Soul Alchemist Podcast with Catherine Maguire. Weekly wisdom, inspiration and practical steps to support you on your journey of personal growth and transformation.
This week I also share practical actionable steps to restore your relationship with your Warrior so you can live a more purposeful, expansive and joyous life.

A huge THANK YOU to Amanda for your honesty and your question, when one person shares their journey, we all grow.

In this episode we explore the concept of "soul alchemy" from the perspective of a tree and examine where there might be rot in the roots which are stopping you from spreading your branches (and your authentic self) out into the world.
Welcome to the Soul Alchemist Podcast with Catherine Maguire. Your weekly infusion of inspiration and wisdom to support you on your journey of personal and spiritual growth.
This week I’ll guide you through an alchemy process so you can let go of anything that is weighing heavy on your heart or keeping you stuck, and claim the hidden wisdom, the gold so that you feel energised and aligned.
I also share how you ground the energy that you’ve alchemised so you experience lasting change and transformation.
 
 

Are you holding back or playing small? This week I share how being told I was ‘out of tune’ as a child caused me to constrict and limit my voice and myself. And how by finding the right teacher I was able to free my voice and more importantly, free myself. 
Welcome to the Soul Alchemist Podcast with Catherine Maguire. Your weekly infusion of inspiration and wisdom to support you on your journey of personal and spiritual growth.
In this episode I invite you to explore where you’re limiting yourself and how you can reframe this limitation and see it as a possibility, a doorway you can walk through to experience a more expansive and harmonious version of yourself. If you're holding back or playing small in your career, your relationships or your creativity, this episode is for you.

If you’re on a journey of personal growth and are looking for a weekly infusion of inspiration, you’re in the right place.  Welcome to the Soul Alchemist Podcast with Catherine Maguire.
In this episode we are exploring how years of protective coping mechanisms become armour that keeps us small and stop us from having the life experiences we desire.  So we force, strive, push and hustle to prove we’re good enough and to create the life we want.  It’s a good game plan but eventually it becomes exhausting and you’ll burn out.
But there’s another way!!
To embrace your vulnerability and soften and surrender into who you truly are.
Catherine offers simple, practical guidance for observing defensive patterns in daily interactions and experimenting with openness to allow deeper connection, growth, and blossoming.  We will learn from the rose, who drops her thorns (her protection mechanism) when she is fully grown and stands tall comfortably in her radiance and vulnerability for everyone to admire.

Celebration is medicine for your body, mind and soul.  It allows you to ground and integrate your experience and makes this whole personal / spiritual journey worth while.
In this episode I discuss the importance of celebrating both large milestones and small personal shifts, and draw on Celtic seasonal rhythms to illustrate cycles of growth and rest.  I also invite you to pause to honour and celebrate your progress.
And celebrate that the Podcast thanks to you now has 10 episodes and 1,000 downloads!!!  Woo Hoo!

Fitting in is exhausting.  It also causes you to disconnect from your gifts, your essence and your very sense of self.  This disconnection creates plenty of space for the inner critic and imposter syndrome to come in and run wild, confirming the core belief that you’re ‘not good enough’.
In this episode we're going to explore how by embracing the unconventional nature of who you truly are, you can access the full colour spectrum of your essence and live a more joyous and fulfilling life.

This week's episode invites you to embrace every moment, be it a high or a low, and accept the natural rhythm of life. It's inspired by the intensity of the Italian summer and its inevitable transition into the serene stillness of winter.

I also share how the success of last’s weeks podcast created an internal pressure that blocked my creativity and flow, and how remembering that 'it's not always summer' helped me find my groove again.
