what if you had a psychic in your back pocket while you were building your business.that's literally what claudia compton does.psychic business consultant, paid speaker, scaled to 6 figures in 9 months and she didn't even realise she was channeling the whole time.in this episode we talk about what psychic business consulting actually is and why it works, the breadcrumbs that led claudia from drugs and burnout to her purpose, why your intuition isn't something you learn; it's something you remember, and the difference between your ego telling you to play small and a genuine intuitive nudge.we also get into control, surrender, and why "just let it go" is actually terrible advice.oh... and she channels my energy live on the pod.you're gonna want to listen to this one twice.

single parent household. violence. addiction. depression. a studio that built community and then disappeared overnight when covid hit.and then... breathwork cracked him open.in this episode we talk about what actually happens in your body during breathwork, why transformational breathwork needs to be respected like the trauma work it is, and why regulated people regulate everything around them; their kids, their partners, their communities.we also get into why men in this space matter more than we talk about, what chris's sister said to him that still gives him goosebumps, and why breathwork should be as common as brushing your teeth.plus we do a live breathing practice together so if you're listening right now, get comfortable.this one's a good one.

i recorded this one-handed. rocking chair. airpods in. baby on my chest. buying our first home. postpartum. a husband still learning to be present. and a nervous system that remembers the last time we had a house, and what my dad did with it.this isn't about having it together. it's about watching yourself freak out in real time and choosing not to act on it.if you're in a hard season, this one's for you.

In this episode, we talk about:My personal psychic story, how I knew this is realThe difference between intuition and intrusive thoughtsWhy trauma can heighten psychic pattern recognitionWhy empaths are often just unstructured psychicsHow fear creates the illusion that spirit is dangerousWhy regulation strengthens your giftsWhat changed when I stopped hidingI’ve been in this space for over seven years.I’ve helped hundreds of people.And I’ve also questioned my own sanity.Both can be true.If you’ve ever felt isolated in your gifts…If you grew up in a religious or sceptical environment…If you’re scared of what you’re tapping into…If you feel called but confused…This conversation is for you.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@thebreathworkmedium ⁠& ⁠⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠⁠⁠Ready to Develop Your Gifts Safely?Inside The Spirit World, I help empaths, psychics, and healers:Regulate their nervous systemsStrengthen their intuitionBuild boundariesIncrease energetic capacityServe ethically without burnoutIf this episode resonated, this is your invitation.🔗 Learn more via this link📩 DM me on Instagram to see if it’s the right fit for you

if you're doing all the things breathwork, journalling, tapping and you still end every day depleted, snapping at your kids, and completely over it hear me out.it's not the tools. it's the structure you're trying to use them inside.in this episode i get really practical about what it actually means to build a nervous-system-supportive life as a mum. not stack more healing practices on top of burnout. actually redesign the architecture of your days so your body stops living like there's a fire to put out 24/7.i talk about the motherhood martyr wound. the "i can do it all" pattern that's actually a nervous system response, not a personality trait. the shower ritual that changed everything for me. and why slowing down isn't failure. it's the whole point.this isn't about manifestation rituals. it's about making your life safe enough that you don't need to escape it.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠⁠Anon questions & feedback: ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldpodWant support?

there was a version of me that had survival mode so baked into her identity, she wouldn't have known who she was without it.always healing. always growing. always on to the next thing. never actually landing.this is a raw one. i talk about the moment i realised i'd become addicted to being the person on the journey and how that kept me from ever actually arriving. i talk about my Crohn's, first postpartum, the coaches who kept me small, and the breathwork session that made me finally cry and say okay. i have to do this.i also talk about my ADHD diagnosis. the grief of it. and how understanding my brain finally gave me permission to stop calling myself a failure.this isn't a motivation episode. it's a mirror.if you've ever built something you were proud of and felt completely trapped inside it you'll know exactly what i mean.DM MELT in IG if this resonated.@thebreathworkmedium / @thespiritworldco

my first pregnancy: panic attacks, autoimmune flares, chronic burnout, emotional shutdown, financial stress, survival mode on full blast. my body carrying everything.my second pregnancy: different. genuinely, actually different.nothing changed except the inside.in this episode i break down what actually shifted not the affirmations, not the mindset work, not the "i did the healing" performance. the real things. the breathwork that replaced smoking. the environment changes. the grief i finally let myself feel. the Crohn's going into remission. the moment i stopped bypassing my body and started listening to it.i also talk about the wellness industry's dirty little secret: most of it only touches one part of you. the mind. but your body keeps the score of everything it's been through and no amount of positive thinking is going to move what's stored in your cells.this episode is the most honest thing i've put out.if you've ever felt like you've "done the work" and you're still the same this is going to land differently.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠⁠Want support?

the self-help industry taught us that if we're still stuck, we're not trying hard enough.i want to talk about what's actually going on because it's not a discipline problem. it's not a willpower problem. it's a nervous system that learned, at some point, that staying small was the safest option.in this episode i'm talking about the freeze response. not the obvious kind, the high-functioning kind that lives inside busy women, mothers, healers, and the ones who were forced to grow up too fast. the kind that looks like productivity. the kind that looks like fine.if you freeze instead of setting boundaries, shut down in conflict, feel "blocked" even when you want to move forward, this one's for you.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠⁠Anon questions & feedback: ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldpodWant support?

This one is raw. It’s for the woman (or man) who had to silence, shrink, or harden parts of themselves just to survive — the one who learned that being soft, emotional, or expressive wasn’t safe.Nita shares the truth about what happens when we kill off our younger self in the name of growth — and how those “dead” parts never actually die, they just freeze in the body, waiting for safety to return. Through honest storytelling, nervous-system education, and a guided re-connection process, she bridges psychology, spirituality, and embodiment in a way that hits straight to the heart.You’ll learn how survival responses like fight, flight, and freeze live inside your cells, how mindset work can mask deeper trauma, and what it actually means to regulate without bypassing emotion. This episode invites you to grieve, to soften, and to remember the version of you who once felt everything.CW / Trigger Warning: Mentions of childhood trauma, emotional abuse, anger, dysregulation, and chronic illness.🧠 We Cover:What it really means to “kill your younger self.” Why we disown our softness and how to bring her home.Emotional suppression and the body. How unprocessed pain becomes “frozen memory” and creates dis-ease.The nervous system beyond buzzwords. Understanding fight, flight, freeze, fawn, and shutdown in simple human language.Real regulation vs. spiritual bypassing. Why “just breathe” isn’t enough — and what regulation actually feels like.Honouring anger and truth. How to release emotion safely without hurting yourself or others.Why slowing down isn’t failure. Redefining success, rest, and what it means to feel safe in your own skin.The birth of the MELT Method. How Nita’s healing led to creating a trauma-informed somatic practice that helps the body unlearn survival and reconnect to intuition.A guided reunion with your inner child. A short practice to meet, forgive, and merge with the part of you that’s been waiting to be seen.🌬 One nervous system practice to try today:Place your hand on your heart and whisper:“I honour every version of me that had to harden to survive. You kept me safe. You can rest now.”Breathe slowly into your belly, feel your body soften, and allow one small piece of armour to melt.You can’t think your way into safety. You have to feel your way there.When you regulate, forgive, and reintegrate the parts you abandoned, you don’t just heal — you come home. This is the foundation of intuition, connection, and peace.If you’ve ever wondered why you “know better” but still repeat the same cycles, this episode explains why — and shows you how to finally shift it through the body.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: @thebreathworkmedium & @thespiritworldcoAnon questions & feedback: @thespiritworldpodWant support?

Kicking off my bite-size series for busy humans (parents, founders, busy workers — hi 👋🏽). We break down what dysregulation actually is (it’s normal), how your sympathetic vs. parasympathetic systems work, and simple tools you can use in under a minute to come back to yourself — no elaborate rituals required.If you’ve been stuck in all-or-nothing thinking, this is your permission slip to regulate in micro-moments and drop the mum-guilt/perfectionism while you do it.🧠 We cover:Dysregulation ≠ bad — it’s data, and you’ll swing between states all day.Sympathetic (go mode) vs. Parasympathetic (rest/digest) — when each is useful.Co-regulation with kids — your energy sets the room; they mirror your breath.Hidden red flags — clenched jaw, random muscle tension, zoning out, freeze/bed-rot loops.When to DIY vs. get support — quick resets vs. deeper work with a pro for transformational styles.Your family, team, and nervous system don’t need perfection — they need you regulated enough to choose the next kind action. Tiny practices, repeated often, change your baseline.⚠️ A quick safety noteTransformational/connected breathing (e.g., holotropic, rebirthing) can surface big emotions and trauma. Start those with a trained facilitator, especially if you’re postpartum, have a history of trauma, or medical conditions. Gentle down-regulation (like above) is fine to DIY.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: @thebreathworkmedium & @thespiritworldcoAnon questions & feedback: @thespiritworldpod⁠Want support?

This one’s for the parents who feel like they never get a minute. I share the real, messy truth of healing while raising little ones — from postpartum anxiety and rage, to the mirror-moment that snapped me out of self-abandonment, to learning what actual nervous-system safety feels like.We talk about systems that create space (childcare, family support, gym crèches), co-regulation at home, and why putting yourself first isn’t selfish — it’s how your kids get the most regulated version of you.If you’re drowning in “I don’t have time,” this is your permission slip and a practical roadmap.🧠 We cover:🍼 Postpartum reality — anxiety, rage, sleep deprivation, and the turning point that ended the cycle.🫁 Body first, not punishment — shifting from shame-driven “fixing” to safety, breath, and gentle regulation.🧯 Co-regulation at home — why your energy sets the tone; simple breath cues your toddler will copy.🧱 Systems build safety — childcare, family help, partner hand-offs, gym crèche, subsidies; stop white-knuckling it alone.🧷 Letting go of mum-guilt — prioritising you = a calmer household; dishes can wait, regulation can’t.🧭 Partner dynamics — trusting your co-parent to learn (without helicoptering) so you can actually rest.🧾 Calling out self-sabotage — assumptions (“they’ll say no,” “I should do it all”) that keep you stuck.🌬️ Micro-practices that work — the 60-second resets that fit real parent life.🧩 Try these micro-practices (parent-friendly):1-Minute Box Breath: Inhale 4 • hold 4 • exhale 4 • hold 4 (repeat 3–4 rounds while kiddo plays).Shoulder Melt While They Snack: Slow shoulder circles + long sighs out the mouth.Carry & Co-Regulate: Hand on your heart, gentle sway, whisper “it’s okay” + long nasal exhale — they’ll mirror you.Nervous System Anchor Phrase: “Dishes can wait. Regulating can’t.” Say it, then take 3 slow breaths.System Swap: One concrete support you’ll add this week (childcare hour, MIL pickup, partner bath time, gym crèche). Put it in the calendar.Your kids don’t need a perfect parent — they need a regulated one. When you build systems that give you space, your nervous system downshifts, and everyone in the house benefits. Prioritising yourself isn’t neglect; it’s leadership.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠@thespiritworldco⁠Anon questions & feedback: ⁠@thespiritworldpod⁠Want support?

In this episode, I share the unfiltered truth about what really happened when I deleted social media for five full days during my somatic breathwork immersion. No posting, no scrolling, no performing. Just me, my body, and real life.I go deep into the identity crisis that hits creators when you take a break, the withdrawals of a dopamine detox, and the clarity that arrives when you stop outsourcing your nervous system to your phone.If you’ve been feeling overstimulated, burnt out, anxious, or stuck in survival mode this episode is for you.Your phone isn’t just stealing your time, it’s hijacking your nervous system. Taking time offline isn’t laziness, it’s leadership. It’s how you reclaim your peace, creativity, and power.🧠 We cover:​📵 Digital addiction disguised as “connection” — how we reach for our phones before we even open our eyes.​💨 The illusion of rest — why scrolling isn’t relaxation; it’s nervous-system overload.​🌿 Presence as medicine — learning to feel dopamine naturally again through breath, movement, and the world around you.​🔋 Reclaiming energy & creativity — how five days offline gave me back my ideas, clarity, and peace.​🔥 The business trap — how “consistency” and content obsession can become self-abandonment in disguise.​💡 Intentional creation — why quality, embodiment, and lived experience will always outshine algorithm hacks.​🫁 Embodied awareness — what my breathwork immersion revealed about control, safety, and living from the body instead of the mind.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠@thespiritworldco⁠Anon questions & feedback: ⁠@thespiritworldpod⁠⁠Want support?

If you’ve ever felt unsafe in friendships, terrified of being “too much,” or carrying old sisterhood wounds… this conversation will feel like a deep exhale.Two besties, one couch, and a brutally honest chat about female friendship, emotional maturity, repairing ruptures, and learning to take up space without guilt.This is for the woman healing her freeze response inside friendships — and rebuilding trust with other women.🧠 We cover:​The real story of how we met (and the infamous pink hair era).​Friendship repair 101 — giving feedback vs. taking it personally.​Projections and ego stories that sabotage sisterhood.​Taking up space vs. fawning and over-giving.​Nervous system regulation inside friendships.​Grief and friendship breakups — how to process, not perform.​Childhood roots of sisterhood wounds (abandonment, bullying, father wounds).​What healthy repair looks like when both people are healing.​Redefining safety, vulnerability, and capacity.​How to celebrate your sisters — and yourself — in real time.Friendships are mirrors. Every trigger, withdrawal, or projection is a chance to practice nervous-system safety and learn relational repair. When we heal sisterhood wounds, we stop seeing other women as threats — and start seeing them as reflections.⚠️ A quick safety noteWe talk about friendship grief, bullying, and emotional regulation. If this brings up memories or sensations in your body, pause, breathe, or journal before continuing.

Toxic friendships, friendship breakup, leaving friendships, people pleasing, codependency, trauma bond, attachment style, boundaries, self abandonment, outgrowing friends, nervous system, emotional exhaustion, one sided friendships, female friendships, friendship grief.If you’re the friend who stayed too long, gave too much, or kept the peace at the cost of yourself… this episode will hit home.I share the honest truth about outgrowing friendships, emotional exhaustion, and why your nervous system shuts down around people who no longer feel safe.For the spiritual woman learning to choose herself without guilt.We cover:​💔 Outgrowing the familiar — why the friendships that once felt like home can start to shrink you.​🧷 Loyalty vs. self-abandonment — carrying everyone, never asking for help, and the fatigue of being “the strong one.”​🧠 Body first, mind second — tight chest, clenched jaw, constant tension: your nervous system knows before you do.​🌪️ The collective pivot — jobs lost, financial hits, values changing; why so many of us are course-correcting in our 30s.​🧭 Healthy friendship in real life — capacity changes, seasons shift, and communication that doesn’t weaponise “boundaries.”​🕊️ Leaving with love — releasing hatred, not making others wrong, honouring different values (the “V drink” story).​🔮 Spiritual contracts — when the lesson is complete, the energy dissolves; how to close with compassion and move on.​🧯 When blocking is the boundary — choosing distance to stop the vacuum pull and create space for healing.Ending a friendship that is no longer aligned isn’t failure. It’s an act of self-respect. Your body can’t keep carrying dynamics that keep you small — and your 30s will expose what your nervous system can no longer hide.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠@themfknempress⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠Anon questions & feedback: @thespiritworldpod⁠⁠⁠Want support?

How hustle culture and conditioning convince women to abandon themselves.​🌙 The nervous system truth: when your body doesn’t feel safe, you can’t rest, soften, or receive.​✨ The flip: asking, “What’s the best that could happen if I slow down?” and beginning to build new evidence that safety is possible.💡 Daily Practices to regulate your nervous system:​Daily silence (even 5 mins).​One conscious deep breath​Scanning the body for tension (the spirit world hub has a guided audio for this)​Curating transitions between roles (business owner → mum → partner → self).​Learning to let some things wait (the dishes, the washing) without shame.🔥 The Spirit World plug – a co-healing space, a nervous system gym, for women who’ve been stuck in survival mode and want to learn how to melt. “It’s your turn now.

If you feel disconnected from your intuition, afraid of being judged, or terrified of getting it “wrong”… this is for you.I break down the REAL reasons intuitive women freeze, shut down, or abandon their inner voice — and how to rebuild trust again.We cover:​🪞 Radical self-honesty — why lying to yourself and avoiding discomfort silences your intuition.​🚫 Avoidance patterns — the small promises you break daily that erode self-trust and keep you disconnected.​💔 Why it’s not about crystals or “psychic tricks” — if you can guess what crystal I’m holding but still ignore the red flags in your relationship, you’re bypassing the real work.​🔥 Feeling = power — how fully allowing emotions (tears, rage, grief) reconnects you to your spirit instead of numbing you out.​✨ Why intuition is survival — your gut isn’t about being “special,” it’s about guiding you away from cycles that could cost you (and your kids) everything.​💡 One journaling practice to try today — name the one thing you’re avoiding, write down why, and commit to having your own back as you face it.This episode is real, raw, and not for those who want surface-level “woo.” It’s about truth-telling, facing the uncomfortable, and remembering that your intuition doesn’t need to be built — it needs to be trusted.Because here’s the truth: intuition is a gift we’re all born with, but every time you silence yourself, you silence it too.✨ I hope this episode leaves you feeling seen, called out in the best way, and empowered to reconnect with your inner knowing — not through tricks, but through truth.🔗 Mentions & LinksIG & TT: ⁠⁠⁠@thebreathworkmedium & ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldco⁠⁠⁠Anon questions & feedback: ⁠⁠⁠@thespiritworldpodWant support?
