Breaking the Blocks grew out of my own healing journey. In 2023, not long after my father died, my own mortality started to catch up with me, and I began to ask what I really wanted from my life. I started looking honestly at my own patterns and behaviours too, and I had a sense that plenty of other people were going through their own healing journeys at the same time. So I thought: why not start a podcast?
I already had the microphone I use for voiceovers at home, and I thought, how difficult can it be? I started researching, and I ended up creating my own podcast from scratch, which I’m proud to say is now available all over the world.
I sat down with creative people from all walks of life and asked about the blocks they’d faced and how they’d come through them. We began by talking about how creativity had helped, but the conversations always moved on to something deeper: how they’d got through some of the hardest times of their lives. It was a fascinating insight into people’s worlds, and it showed anyone listening what a shiny Instagram grid can hide. From the outside, creative people can look as though they have it all together. The truth is that no one does.
I wasn’t afraid to share my own story either, or to talk about soul growth. Every week, emails arrived from listeners telling me that something said in an episode had made them stop and think about their own lives. Nothing has given me a bigger thrill, or made me prouder.
Every episode is still available on all the major podcast platforms and on YouTube, and I'm currently thinking of returning to Breaking the Blocks in a new form...
