The Magic Is In Your Mess
The Magic is in Your Mess is a living archive of awakening, where healing gets honest, transformation gets personal, and feeling stuck becomes sacred.
Hosted by Parul Gupta—coach, creative, and transformation guide—this podcast explores what it really takes to come home to yourself after a life of emotional chaos, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or playing small. Through raw solo episodes and intimate conversations with guests across healing modalities, Parul unpacks the unseen patterns that keep us stuck and the magic that emerges when we choose to trust ourselves.
Expect deep truths, unfiltered stories, esoteric tools, and soulful reminders that your path doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s.
Whether you’re moving through heartbreak, starting over, navigating your spiritual awakening, or rebuilding your confidence from the ground up, this space is for you.
Because the magic isn’t in the perfect life.
It’s in the mess that taught you who you really are.

At 39: What This Year Taught Me About Big Emotions and Authenticity
Turning 39 has me reflecting on a year that cracked me open in ways I never saw coming. What I thought would be a season of grounding in Melbourne became a year of eclipses, ancestral grief, shadow work, back pain, and deep lessons in rest, authenticity, and radical self-love.
In this episode, I share the biggest truths this past year handed me:
✨ Why grief isn’t just about loss, but how we metabolize change and integrate absence.
✨ How anger, when honored, becomes love’s guardian and reconnects us to dignity.
✨ Why sadness softens us, humbles us, and grows our capacity for empathy.
✨ The body’s wisdom — and how my own pain forced me to slow down and live differently.
This isn’t an episode about chasing happiness. It’s about embracing the full spectrum of being human — and how grief, anger, and sadness are the very teachers that deepen our capacity for love, connection, and authenticity.

As Rilke reminds us: “Let everything happen to you: beauty and terror. Just keep going. No feeling is final.”
