You’ll hear stories and guidance for those moments when you pause and catch yourself thinking things like: “I used to have such a big imagination as a kid — what happened?” Or when you wonder, “Can I really trust myself?” Maybe you notice how often you’ve been silencing yourself just to fit in, or feel that surge of inspiration but don’t know where to begin.
Each episode meets you in those moments of doubt and “where do I even start?” feelings, helping you reconnect with your spark, trust yourself, and take simple, practical steps to express who you really are.

Perimenopause, Healing & Reclaiming Your Power with Kym Stewart
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the exhaustion you feel isn’t something to fix — but an invitation to come home to yourself?
In this deeply healing and heart-centered episode of Creative by Nature, Jess sits down with intuitive guide, energy healer, and Reiki master teacher Kym Stewart — the soulful woman behind Heart & Soul Woman.
Together, they explore what happens when women reach those life-altering crossroads moments — burnout, perimenopause, grief, identity shifts — and begin hearing their soul whisper (or shout) that there must be another way to live.
Kym shares her powerful personal journey from running a successful construction business in a masculine industry to answering her calling to support women in reconnecting with their hearts, intuition, and authentic selves. Through sacred circles, Reiki, and gentle feminine practices, she helps women remember they are not broken — they are becoming.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
✨ Why burnout is often the soul’s wake-up call
✨ Perimenopause as a sacred rite of passage (not a problem to fix)
✨ How birth stories shape our power and self-trust
✨ The healing power of sacred circles and holding space
✨ Reiki as a tool for self-empowerment and intuition
✨ Simple rituals that help you begin a new chapter with compassion
This conversation is raw, emotional, nurturing, and deeply affirming — especially if you’re feeling sensitive, exhausted, or ready to stop living in survival mode.
If you’ve ever thought:
“There has to be more than this,”
“I don’t recognize myself anymore,”
or “I’m tired of pushing and proving,”
this episode will feel like a warm exhale for your soul.
