Listen to find out more about how Tara (MadeofSHE) and Angie (Real Women's Movement) came to soul alignment through the work, projects & long suppressed passions.

So it's mental health awareness week and Tara has been improving her own mental fitness with some form of daily breathwork practice movement. This kind of habit stacking, along with her yoga is bringing in different tools to her wellbeing practice each day and it's a conversation she wants to share to help you! In this episode, you learn not only the importance of good quality breath but it means when you start each morning with breath and that helps with managing to come back to wellbeing practice throughout the day. In terms of creating mental fitness, this is your tool kit — so that you can create special moments for yourself to just align. From there, you can start to work on improving the way your mind works and your quality of wellbeing by using breath, of course! FUN FACT: We humans get 70% of our energy from breath!

It's never too late to start working on one's own relationship to self, and to nurture the love we feel for ourselves — so here's some guidance as to how you can start practicing self-love today, interwoven with some wisdom from my own personal journey. The tiktoker referenced was @taliemiller (I absolutely love showing my mind some love by engaging with her deep, philosophical, intellectual content) — and also the mantra I sung in my bath ceremony was this https://open.spotify.com/track/6DIgQbaIXZXERniKYNrT1D?si=r8TQmCNrSiqStr4U3Pr3zw. The Shri Ram mantra is a supreme manifestation of the divine ideal AKA it enhances esteem and mental energy. It raises consciousness and helps one build a deeper connection to divine truths (that being you are love, loved and light) and blessings. Hope this helps xx

Hands up who knows about psilocybin therapy? This week you're going to hear about my incredible self-love journey with the psychedelic medicine and how horrendously hard it was — how it pushed/pulled/expanded me in all manner of directions — and how it has since emerged as one of the most promising and impactful/spiritual treatments I've ever had on my journey to overcome grief and trauma. The compounds in Magic mushroom are said to increase brain connectivity in people with severe depression — and based on my one-off experience, I feel it helped me out of a rut, in a way that other therapies just never have/never could. Fast facts: * Mushrooms/Psilocybin can have both positive and negative physical and psychological effect * It's not naturally addictive * It can help heal trauma but a trip can also trigger a psychotic episode * If you have a pre-disposition to psychosis, likely you'll have an increased risk of an adverse psychiatric reaction (though this can just happen to you as a short term experience and isn't necessarily a symptom of mental illness - but be careful, please!)

An exciting day for the world over — and a change for Tara to share the magic and power of harnessing and honouring the feminine as well as understanding the essence encoded in us all!

To start off a new series, in this brand new year (almost), I particularly want to talk about and show you how to move through times when something in your body doesn't feel right - how to come into the body and feel safe amidst all kinds of angst, emotional instability, disharmony or a lack of control. Use my various trauma-informed techniques to navigate your way through these difficult situations, whether it be my stress-reduction techniques like deep breathing or meditation; whether it's engaging in light sunrise yoga with me online every Wednesday or whether it's the bonus exercise I deliver to you at the end of episode. Time to feel safe and secure, sister x

How stressful would your life be if you could stop loosing sleep about how you've over spent? How much would your life change if you could boost the things that are powerful, empowering and nourishing rather than draining and distracting? Do you measure your profits and losses? I'm coming to you this week, having realised a BIG mistake I've made this year. I can almost guarantee some of you have made the same mistake too — and it's costed us a lot! So if you're here for growth, healing and success, here are some key lessons to save yourself from overspending, over-exerting and being overdrawn in the new year..

Something to share with whomever this resonates is that on your healing journey — wherever you're at — one of the most important things to get your head around and learn is which of your beliefs are coming from conditioning vs your true self. Here's why you might be going around in circles on that journey..

This week, we're talking medicine transformation and crazy synchronicities. After an epic talk with cacao; an experience of trying to surrender and an invitation to dig deeper on trauma release work, Tara shares her inspiration behind wanting to take Ayahuasca and Kambo — and the respectable boundary between exploration and soul connection. Together, let's explore new ways to activate healing. Are you open to plant medicine? Have you tried it? Did it give you real transformation, and feminine CONNECTION? Share you stories!

This is a continuum of the conversation I brought to the table last week about love & trauma healing. Moving through the pain, no matter what, is a process we simply cannot dodge — hear me out…

Learning of my ex, my first love & biggest heartbreak getting married has come at the BEST time for me to maximise what my own heart is called to do. Ie; Letting go of restrictions, letting go of previous pains and transmuting trauma. I'm here today, to encourage all women who have had similar life experiences to think beyond their limitations! Whilst self-love might take some time to come to fruition after deep love and heartache, understand that you don't need to stop connecting to love and giving that back to yourself. Challenges are part of the path but this podcast episode is the frame to help you see all the possibilities beyond them. Love love self-love and more loveeeeeee!!!!

I did an amazing workshop recently, where I was challenged to work with two healing modalities - one being a Vulva gazing exercise for female embodiment and the other being a visualisation practice to engage ancestral healing. It was AMAZING! As I explore in this episode, a few triggered thoughts and feelings came up for me throughout the experience, especially in relation to my maternal/matriarchal line. What I share with you in this podcast is a snippet of my lives experience and also knowledge around what self sabotage looks like when you have these kind of karmic debts and unresolved ancestral wounds yet to work with. I hope this conversation helps you in your healing journey. Love, Tara x

This week, we're back with another expert from our BRAND NEW MadeofSHE YouTube channel and Tara is talking to you about all things wounded inner child. From her experience and own deep healing journey, it's increasingly more obvious that childhood wounds are deeply ingrained into who we are and how we grow to identify with the outer world and inner selves. Oftentimes, when it comes to doing trauma healing work, we can't identify the root cause of our pain but after listening to this episode, you will begin to understand the ways in which your younger self is in need of loving and nurturing is exactly what your adult-self also craves and needs.

Today, two really influential women join Tara in conversation about feminine empowerment & about the sacred divine movement. ⁣This is a non-judgmental container where our women listeners are invited to rebirth & reidentify with their own divinity and where Tara, Chloe & Nadia get to share their experiences as three spiritual women/ healers. As womb-bearing women, there is so much power in tuning into this kind of work. Really your relationship with your inner polarities is so personal & yet so profound and we ALL hold masculine/ feminine energetic forces within us (irrespective of identity). So by truly leaning more into your feminine seat of energy, you unlock greatness as well as flow & ease and can meet the world more in balance & in love. ⁣ ⁣ This topic is so prevalent for each of the women leading this conversation & it is hoped that by sharing their own real/raw experiences, it can help raise the consciousness of all women & the world at large. ⁣⁣ ⁣ Now more than ever, women collectively need to work together & realise that the more one woman settles in disconnection from her authentic feminine self, it makes it harder for other women. Because it's weakening our innate magic. ⁣ ⁣ & this all starts with us by means of:⁣ ⁣ + Developing a stronger sense of self worth, love & confidence ⁣ ⁣ + Birthing divine energy through our womb space ⁣ + Choosing to honour our feminine & masculine. Choosing sovereignty. ⁣ ⁣ + Understanding how to navigate our inner seasons & our deepest feminine intuition as women. ⁣ ⁣ Do you realise how powerful you are, women?

Welcome to the two-part mini series on how to love yourself - This second episode will help you manifest the love you know you deserve! A conversation — with host Tara & guest speaker/ professional Love & Life Coach Dulcie McDermot - that will change your life! If you're ready to remove love blocks & become more secure in your emotional attachments, let us show you what it means for women finding more time in their lives to focus on self-passion, self-love & healing.

This relates to healing, growth & expansion. * Learn who you are * Understand where you're coming from in terms of your trauma & life experiences * Allow yourself to stop doubting, fearing & second guessing your healing process This episode gets you to reflect & question: - How open can I carry my heart? - How open is my heart currently? - How can I resonate on a higher frequency? For most of us, we know that a disconnection to ‘self' is often indication of us operating as our wounded child selves - therefore, to become the most balanced/ sovereign version of you, it's about feeling into & using any emotion that comes up.

Every single one of us has the ability to live the most abundant life - but how many opportunities are we denying ourselves because of poor mindset? How much more could be possible for us, if we did the work to change our outlook? For many of us, we have experienced holding ourselves back - doubting and questioning our reality. Playing small. But what if the conversation wasn't about purpose and more about possibility - ie: what things could you unlock, if you changed your perspective? In this episode, I bring to the table some ideas about: * The art of surrendering and how to let go, even if you don't have all the answers * How to overcome negative self talk * How to move beyond limiting beliefs and fears so that you can pursue what true to you * What your shadow self is a vehicle for inner power & should be honoured rather than feared I hope this episode helps you to take that next step on your development journey - and if you want to deepen your spiritual practice, I have a new moon manifestation course currently open for enrolment https://www.eventbrite.com/e/online-course-new-moon-manifestation-tickets-175035193977?ref=eios Honouring you all on this journey x

(30th Jan 2022) This podcast episode is a look into what may be possible for you this February. Tara talks about cyclical living - syncing up with the seasons - and how to ultimately tune into the natural intelligence of your body, in order to flourish. Listen to this if you want to step into unlimited opportunity and embrace a new, improved you!

Here, in a nutshell, is the power of tuning into astrology.. This week, Tara explores & shares with you THE most dynamic representation of her physical space within her birth chart  - via a an intimate house cusp & cross of matter reading, led by Soul Chats host Chloë Basnett. For any true astrology-lover, learn the core meaning of what a natal chart is & get to really master the interpretation of each Each axes within your own charts. Crucially, get to understand what is means when we refer to the Ascendant (ASC), Midheaven (MC), Descendant (DSC) and Astrological Nadir (IC) - plus tonnes more! You'll be able to book in your own house cusp & cross of matter readings by visiting Chloe's Instagram: @soulchatscb.

Our culture, our ways as humans has changed dramatically - especially in the Western world in which MadeofSHE was birthed. But one of the most powerful, spiritual downloads that can be streamed when taking yourself off on new travels/adventures is that so much healing & growth lies in the ability to disconnect. Tara walks you through the processes of disconnecting from anything that serves the masculine ie work, goals, results-driven routines etc and how to more desirably come into the feminine aspects of yourself. Her recent trip to Gambia has inspired a lot of this conversation and for herself, was all she needed to feel completely earthed. What is that you do to disconnect? Is there something you do? Has there been a place you've travelled to that invoked & stirred the same kinds of feelings within you?

A HUGE warm welcome from my new, humble abode (coined the warehouse of woo

I recorded this podcast episode for MadeofSHE at the start of the week, when the heaviness of the Full Moon in Pisces was still lingering. I was operating deeply within my wounded inner child for a morning. Now, a few days on, I've moved through that ‘emotional' and let's say ‘more sensitive' state, but I still want to share this insight with you. This might help you alchemise your feelings if/whenever you feel overcome. In addition, we now have the autumn equinox in full swing. Meaning you're not only going to be seeing a shift in nature, as she slows down, but you're also going to be seeing yourself be called more into your own inner world around this time. This is a powerful period of inner strength, communication, inner clarity, wisdom, inner-knowing. Lean into it, girls. Claim it!

In what ways does astrology elevate self-awareness? What can you explore with your own birth chart? How do such readings contribute to raising the collective human consciousness? These are questions I've taken upon myself to answer over the past few decades. This week, I share with you a recent life-changing revelation about the exact time I was born and my journey from confidently knowing myself to revising my own mystical roadmap of who I am & the world around me. With many wonderfully intelligent & intricate insights from the lovely Chloë Basnett of Soul Chats, this week MadeofSHE delves deeper into how birth charts relate to you. We Look At: * What birth charts are * How they help with self-identity & self-exploration * How charts help you master & understand yourself * Insights into what birth charts mean in relation to your imprint on the world around you The Key Takeaway Facts: * Your Sun sign determines your ego, identity and “role” in life. * Your Moon rules your emotions, feelings and moods - it reflects your true inner essence. * Your Ascending (AKA Rising) sign is your outer armour - the “mask” you present to the world and to other people.

This week, I wanted to record an episode about MONEY as it's been a topic I've talked about a lot recently. If you're someone who has attended my Money Mindset Rewiring Workshop on the MadeofSHE Academy, then you will know just how much importance I place on opening the mind & heart to the possibility of abundance. If you haven't yet joined but you know you need to change the way you think when it comes to getting or calling in more $ then I have two suggestions for you: 1. Give this episode a listen and 2. Head over to my Instagram, let's connect, and let me show you more about my workshop as well as what those who have taken part have to say. It really is life altering stuff, when you know how to get that relationship right..

This week on madeofSHE, I will be talking to you about a thing called ‘Ultra Independence' and looking at how it can stem, as a response, from the following: – your past – the death of a loved one – growing up prematurely to take on a caregiver role at a young gauge. There's that plus a whole lot more according to narcissist abuse recovery professional, Danish Bashir (@narabusecoach). Trauma is something I've discussed a few times on this podcast but it's important to be able to dig deep and recognise why you are the way you are. With ultra independence, this can manifest in a number of crucial ways. Have a listen to this 80 minute podcast to hear more and let me know if it resonates, because it does with me…

In light of a New Moon in Cancer (encouraging deeper self-care, self-love, self-nurturing & self-parenting practice), I'm offering you a healing meditation that promises to shift your energetic & emotional body. Allow me to guide into feeling, thinking & leaning all the way into your wounded child self as well as finding new ways to alchemise your stuck emotion. This is my FIRST EVER recorded meditation, guys! I have drawn on inspiration I've found during my own inward journey of self healing. I deeply hope what I've created takes you somewhere special too - I very much doubt I would've recorded this if it weren't for all of the recent/lovely messages about my podcast. Happy Releasing - Happy Healing - Happy New Moon, Tara x

Please listen to this episode before progressing to my New Moon Inner Child Healing Guided Meditation (Bonus Feature). This is your warm up to all things emotional alchemy; releasing practices and relating to your wounded inner self. Happy Healing - Happy New Moon, Tara x

“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence” - Albert Einstein. ✨ On that note, this week I've decided to take inspiration from a chance meeting/conversation with Philosopher, Chloe Basnett of the SoulChats podcast. I met Chloe whilst staying at Lovedown (freedom camp in London) back in June. The conversation I'm bringing to the table is about the elevation & strength one can receive through spiritual awakening or alignment. Be it in business; through critical thinking, conspiracy or with philosophy. Let this be your gateway & introduction to those ‘awakening arts'. Find out more about this topic at the brand new MadeofSHE Academy: www.tara-louise.wixsite.com/madeofshe.

Are you currently stuck in a feeling of helplessness? This week on MadeofSHE, Tara addresses how you can overcome your learned behaviour of helplessness & hopelessness through self therapy. Self therapy could look like journalling — affirmation & gratitude practice — taking yourself off for a walk — looking within to find alternative ways of thinking, when you feel stuck. Whatever it is leading you here today, know that it's ok! Your emotions are a COMPLETELY natural part of our collective human experience - and together, we are powerful. In this episode, you will learn that you have entirely more power than you assume...

In the past week, there have been a few transformations as well as a few great things to share: the UK edging back into the world of travel, me having an interview for a comms manager role at a wildlife conservation foundation —and with this week's episode, I'm actually just wanting to hone in on the good. Whether it be the trips I've been booking for summer, the stern conversations of self-love/worthiness around my up-and-coming YTT... I'm hoping I also answer some of your questions about international travel, amber list destinations and what is available to us right now. Find me on either @madeofshe or @mostravel.co if you do have more travel questions.

In this sixth episode of MadeofShe, learn all about how to do more, become more and think better! I explain how self talk and your inner voice is not just a verbal monologue of conscious thought but a gateway to love, acceptance and overall elevation. I recommend that if cultivating more self belief or confidence is on your PD list, then you give this short, energising episode a listen!

I know that so many of us have had life altering experiences with death, grief and loss - the desire is to just get through it all as smoothly as possible but what often goes wrong, is that we overlook the necessity of being vulnerable when it comes to our healing. So often, we feel like we can't talk about grief but it's actually so overwhelming and so detrimental to not actually share your experiences! Over the past week - with the sudden death of my beloved nana, Marlene, I've been going from wanting to speak out about her and my experience, to talking myself out of my pain and suffering - and telling myself that I'm not worthy of my any of it being heard on this podcast. It's also been hard to actually string sentences together (my brain is currently frazzled). If you've ever lost anyone and struggled with feeling unworthy - or you're stuck in a cycle of grief - then this episode is for you! In this episode, I'm sharing with you: * The struggle and overwhelm I've had to learn to get over, due to the loss of my dad in high school; my grandad in my first year of university and now my nana (who was like my mum), just last week * Why & how these experiences of loss have imprinted on my adult life * How the feeling of unworthiness around loss can be reshaped into feeling powerful * How to create positive meaning from your own grief by doing things like yoga, meditation and affirmations I hope you all receive this episode with an open mind and warm heart. It's not intended to be triggering or upsetting to anyone - it's part of my healing process and grief work. It's also my final farewell and thank you to my Nan - who I hope is resting in eternal peace with her son, my dad.

If you haven't come across my (first ever) guest on the mat or through one of her awakening yoga flows, then you may have listened to one of her podcasts - The Yoga Crew, shared with a handful of other female yoga teachers to create an online community for practitioners and yoga enthusiasts. Syrine Bouras has truly helped my decision to start yoga teacher training this August, and we met because we previously worked together in the travel industry. We also used to attend after-work classes together, each Wednesday. Her story of heading out into the world of yoga, during the 2020 lockdown, really shows that anything can be made possible with work and that growth really should never stagnate - not because of limiting beliefs; not in a pandemic, NEVER! ...Taking the next step and refusing to settle in life is (in a nutshell) what led Syrine and I to both reconnect and come here today. We are constantly wanting to raise the bar with ourselves as well as others. If that's you too - or you need a bit of lifting - then this podcast is your source message! Don't forget to say hello to us ladies on IG: @madeofshe / @sereneatyoga.

Whether the two of us are on a similar entrepreneurial journey or you're just starting out I'm telling you, it's time to dream big and to condition your mind for success! Give yourself that permission. Forget everything external.. If you stay focussed and true to yourself; if you take responsibility for your vision by setting yourself goals and if you exercise your mind daily, this year can be your vehicle for change. Remember that success doesn't happen unless you keep your dreams alive and you believe that success a done deal!

Hi, I'm Tara McLeod Williams and I am so excited to welcome you back to the ‘Made of She' podcast. This week, I'm giving you a little more background into my brand and what those 3 images of myself actually mean!

SHE is here - and she is confidently shifting up energies, whilst taking you on the journey with her. Are you getting the calling for change too?
