About this episode

Eeeeep hey guys and welcome back to Finding Your Casual Magic! Welcome to Season 2 ✨ it’s been a long time coming and I’m genuinely SO excited to experiment this season. Get ready for new locations, incredible guests from all walks of life and a continuous exploration of what it means to live a good life.


Today’s episode is an intro to Season 2, a lil life update and sharing one of my favourite concepts to illuminate the power of Casual Magic: polyvagal theory. This neuroscience theory changed my understanding of nervous system regulation! Casual Magic is a powerful tool that can help you regulate yourself into a state ready for gratitude, learning and connection.


Thank you guys so much for being here ily ✨✨✨
