What if the version of you you're trying to become is already within you - waiting to be remembered, not achieved? In this soul-deep episode of Your Worth, Your Way , I’m joined by the radiant Daniela Nahas, a soul mentor for visionary women who are ready to break free from survival mode and live with purpose, power, and presence. We explore her powerful story of leaving a long-standing fitness business, reconnecting with her spirituality, and learning to trust her soul’s wisdom - even when it defied logic. Daniela shares how the mind can trap us in fear and old conditioning, why remembering your worth is the key to freedom, and what it really takes to tune into your intuition and live a life that feels expansive, joyful, and aligned. This episode is a potent reminder that your worth doesn’t live in your achievements - it lives in your essence. Whether you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just yearning for something more, this conversation will meet you exactly where you are and help guide you back to yourself. Key Takeaways from This Episode ✔ You don’t need to earn your worth - it’s already within you, waiting to be remembered. ✔ The mind thrives on safety and familiarity, but the soul is always calling us to expansion. ✔ Your intuition often doesn’t make logical sense - and that’s exactly why it’s so powerful. ✔ True joy is found in the small, intentional moments - not just the big milestones. ✔ Saying yes to your soul might feel scary, but it always leads to more freedom and fulfilment.

Have you ever hit rock bottom and realised that you couldn’t keep living the same way? That something deep inside you was crying out for a new way of being? In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Catherine Storing - somatic facilitator, trauma-informed coach, and deep-healing guide - to explore what it really means to heal from the inside out . Catherine shares how her journey through burnout, business trauma, and emotional exhaustion led her to somatic work and inner child healing - and how these tools helped her reclaim her self-worth, voice, and joy. We talk about the transformational power of reconnecting with your inner child, healing old stories that keep you small, and learning to trust your truth enough to say “no” when it matters and “yes” to what truly lights you up. If you’ve ever felt like you’re going through the motions, playing small, or waiting for permission to prioritise yourself, this conversation will feel like a warm, powerful permission slip. Whether you’re in the middle of your own healing journey, navigating emotional burnout, or ready to stop dimming your light, Catherine’s wisdom and vulnerability will help you see that it’s never too late to return home to yourself. Key Takeaways from This Episode: ✔ Healing happens when you stop pushing and start listening to your body. ✔ Self-worth begins with honouring your inner child’s needs and desires. ✔ You don’t need to hit rock bottom to start your healing - but if you do, it can be the perfect place to begin again. ✔ Boundaries aren’t about controlling others - they’re about staying true to yourself. ✔ Joy lives in saying yes to what feels aligned and no without guilt.
