Renowned guest Zach Bush challenges conventional notions by exploring the intersection of science and spirituality.

Dr. Bush shares personal encounters with past relatives, highlighting the infinite aspects of our being and how acknowledging this essence inspires purposeful living in the present moment.

If you resonate with the struggles of procrastination, perfectionism, imposter syndrome or burnout then this conversation will be extremely beneficial. Caggie is joined by Aime McNee, a creative coach and fiction author. In this episode they explore the beauty and vulnerability of ‘the creative’; the loneliness of committing to creativity, the shame and comparison creatives often face when straying away from the conventional 9-5 career and the liberation of choosing ourselves and our own path. Aime and Caggie discuss the many ways we often grapple with the dialogue of our inner critic and unpack the topic of ego, how individuals will often unknowingly cultivate a fear of success which is just as persuasive as our fear of failure. Even if you are not creative in your career, many of us have that inner critic which makes us doubt ourselves and stops us from going after our aspirations and goals. Aime shares her own experience with this and the tools she utilises to unlock the power to silence that voice in our head that says we are not worthy.---Follow or subscribe to "Saturn Returns" for future episodes, where we explore the transformative impact of Saturn's return with inspiring guests and thought-provoking discussions.Follow Caggie Dunlop on Instagram to stay updated on her personal journey and you can find Saturn Returns on Instagram, YouTube and TikTok. Order the Saturn Returns Book.Join our community newsletter here. Find all things Saturn Returns, offerings and more here.

Louise O’Neill, renowned author and journalist, joins Caggie on this episode to discuss the journey of her Saturn Return. At 27 she was back living with her parents after returning from her job in fashion journalism in New York, her relationship ended, a dwindling bank account and suffering a severe relapse of her eating disorder. It was a “rock bottom” experience in many ways but her career soon took off after writing her first book. Our Saturn Return can be a turbulent and transformative time and Louise speaks openly about how there were times she felt hopeless and lost, even when she was at one of her highest points of success professionally. Yet she holds the belief that often everything falls apart and comes together at the same time. Louise reflects candidly on her twenty-year battle with an eating disorder which affected every aspect of her life. She shares her recent experience with her Saturn Maturation, a profound time of self-reflection, introspection and re-evaluation. Louise and Caggie discuss toxic relationship patterns, inner critics, energetic shielding, and deepening our intuition. The overwhelming theme of this conversation is that happiness is an inside job. This episode contains discussions around eating disorders and addiction and therefore might not be suitable for every listener.--- Follow or subscribe to "Saturn Returns" for future episodes, where we explore the transformative impact of Saturn's return with inspiring guests and thought-provoking discussions.Follow Caggie Dunlop on Instagram to stay updated on her personal journey and you can find Saturn Returns on Instagram, YouTube and TikTok. Order the Saturn Returns Book.Join our community newsletter here. Find all things Saturn Returns, offerings and more here.

In this week’s episode of Saturn Returns Caggie is joined by renowned podcast host and author of the book “Alonement: How to be Alone and Absolutely Own in”, Francesca Specter. After her breakup several years ago, Francesca coined the term ‘Alonement’ and lives in alignment with finding joy in solitude. Francesca shares insight into the value of self love, making decisions for yourself and thriving in your own company. It is no secret that people often desire love and the comforts partnership can bring us and whilst these are things to be celebrated, there is also great value in creating the space to rediscover parts of ourselves that we may have abandoned in order to mould ourselves in relationships. They also discuss the loneliness that can stem from the pressure to conform to the life choices that our friends and family have made, for instance marriage and children. This sparked the discussion on the value of diversifying our circle and questioning if we are living in true alignment with our own desires. Caggie and Francesca also delve into the societal stereotypes that contrast the celebrated image of a “bachelor” with the pitiful perception of a “spinster”, and how these stereotypes can be negated by the transformative power of finding joy in solitude.   You can find Francesca Specter at @chezspecter on Instagram and Twitter.---Follow or subscribe to "Saturn Returns" for future episodes, where we explore the transformative impact of Saturn's return with inspiring guests and thought-provoking discussions.Follow Caggie Dunlop on Instagram to stay updated on her personal journey and you can find Saturn Returns on Instagram, YouTube and TikTok. Order the Saturn Returns Book.Join our community newsletter here. Find all things Saturn Returns, offerings and more here.
