In January 2025 Paola and I visited Manzanillo, Mexico and had the idea of creating our own podcast together. Unsure of where the conversation might lead, we decided to just have fun and share what we loved most about life, God and divine timing.

Enjoy!

Today we decided to share a fun chat that we had in the park recently about God and nature.

Have you ever felt God’s presence while in nature?

Summary

This episode is a little different. It’s explorative and fun as we head out into the heart of Nature and share our beliefs & views when it comes to God and Nature.

Could it be that God exists in Nature ? Or that God is Nature? While our perspectives maybe a little different, we hold one thing in common, that God is the Divine Creator.

Topics we touched on:

• Can you find God in nature?

• Is worshiping creation the same as worshiping the Creator?

• What role do traditional frameworks like churches play in our spiritual journey?

• Is God masculine or feminine? Neither?

• Jesus’ teaching that our bodies are our temples

• The secret of returning to childlike wonder

Paola shares that while she sees the essence of God in nature she wouldn’t say nature is God, but rather a beautiful gift to be honoured. Graham explores the idea that if God is in everything and everyone, then honouring creation might also be honouring God.

We reflected on Jesus’ teaching that our bodies are temples, meaning we don’t need a physical church to access God. Even though churches can still be meaningful for those who feel called to them.

Paola emphasized that Jesus’ sacred heart is illuminated because God is accessed through the heart, not through logical thinking. We talked about returning to childlike wonder (innocent, imaginative, and playful) as a pathway to God.

Graham brought up fascinating research from the HeartMath Institute showing that the heart can perceive events before they happen, suggesting the heart has access to wisdom beyond time and logic.

Ultimately, we agreed that God can’t be fully captured in language or frameworks. As Joseph Campbell said, “God” is just a word pointing to something that transcends all thinking.

What matters most is the personal relationship. The lived, felt experience of the Divine, whether that happens in a church, in nature, or in the quiet of your own heart.

Have you ever felt God’s presence while in nature?

We explore why a regulated nervous system is essential to actually receive those signs to hear, feel, and see guidance without distortion. We share practical ways to ground your energy, reconnect with your body, and clear mental noise, including:

• Grounding techniques

• Nature Therapy

• Our brain-dumping protocol

• Releasing attachments with how you want the sign to show up

We also open up about our own experiences — the difference between being in divine flow versus gripping tightly to a desired outcome — and how we now recognize the energetic shift between the two.

To close the episode, we guide you through a powerful NLP grounding meditation to help re-centre your nervous system and bring you back into alignment.

“This isn’t working, I want my life back! But at what cost?”

Have you heard yourself saying this before? Because we sure have.

Are you currently in a position where you’re exhausting yourself by over contributing to someone? You’re coming from a place of love and compassion BUT now it’s just an expectation. You’re stuck in a spiral and don’t know how to get out.

This episode is for anyone who finds themselves in a season of life where they’ve stretched beyond their limits constantly giving too much to someone else. Whether it’s a partner, friend, or family member, your generosity may have unintentionally enabled them to stay the same, without growth or accountability.

We also dive even deeper into the soul lessons and the higher meaning behind this.

In this episode, we open up about our own experiences with over-giving, and share how we recognized the pattern, set boundaries, and navigated our way toward healthier relationships. Graham also shares a powerful metaphor about how a butterfly needs to go through the challenges within the cocoon to build strong enough wings to fly.

✨ Benefits of connecting with your inner child:

• Heal emotional blocks that no longer serve you.
• Ignite your creativity and sense of wonder.
• Rebuild trust with yourself and others.

I want this meditation to be your sacred pause in the busy flow of life, a moment to nurture the parts of you that need love the most.

💖 How to prepare:

1. Find a quiet, comfortable space where you won’t be disturbed.

2. Set the mood: light a candle, grab a cozy blanket, or play soft background music.

3. Have a journal nearby to write down any insights or emotions that arise.

4. Approach this practice with an open heart your inner child is waiting to reconnect with you.

This gift is for anyone ready to heal, love, and embrace themselves fully. 🌸

Your transformation begins within. ✨
Love, Paola x

We don’t always realise these wounds exist until we begin to notice how we show up in the world.

Some of us start to recognise certain patterns are consistently replaying themselves across different situations which gives us have no choice but to begin seeking answers.

It can be confronting, but those who persevere start to rewrite their stories, reclaim their essence, and create a new reality.

In this live video with & , we dive deep into how these wounds show up within the Masculine and Feminine, how life events can form belief systems that often sabotage our relationships — not just with others, but most importantly, with ourselves.

Inward Question:

What is a recurring pattern in your life that you're noticing? If you look deeper, what belief is being stored within it — and what message might it be trying to reveal?

Paola here 👋🏼

Recently, I held a Kinesiology session with a client who had experienced profound religious trauma so deep it had become almost debilitating. Her perception of life had been shaped by the belief that God’s judgment and punishment loomed over every challenging experience, as though hardship itself was divine retribution.

She also carried a deeply ingrained belief that to be good or worthy, one had to completely deny themselves, even to the point of becoming unwell. Tending to her own needs was seen as selfish and shameful. These were just the surface layers of her trauma. At the core was the belief that God’s love was conditional, that one must constantly strive to appease Him to be worthy of His favor.

It truly saddened me to hear that these beliefs were instilled by her church community and family, those meant to be her spiritual and emotional support. I gently reminded her that God’s love is not something to be earned. It is infinite and unconditional, immeasurable in its depth and purity. Just as a mother loves her child without needing the child to prove their worth, so too does God love us. That love simply is unchanging, unwavering, and always present.

During our session, we worked through these limiting beliefs, which had profoundly restricted her ability to open her heart to herself and to the true nature of divine love. As I reminded her, Jesus never said, “Follow the churches” he said, “Follow me.” He led not with fear, but with compassion. He stood for love, for truth, for forgiveness. He once saved a woman from being stoned and said, “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.”

God didn’t send Jesus to judge us, Jesus came to renew us, with truth and with love.

Have you ever had to unlearn beliefs that made you feel unworthy of love, whether from God, yourself, or others?

We would love to hear what that journey has looked like for you.
