In this episode of The Alchemy Lounge, Victoria is joined by Jen Sankey (Stardust Wanderer Tarot) for a grounded, playful conversation about what “witchcraft” actually is (and isn’t), and how to use tarot, lunar cycles and psychology to make manifestation practical, personal, and real.

Together they explore:

• Why being “witchy” is less about labels and more about choosing your own path

• The importance of learning the foundations (so your practice becomes more colourful and evolved)

• How the moon offers structure without restriction, especially when life feels chaotic

• Why manifesting needs action steps, not just affirmations and aesthetic ritual posts

• How to stop outsourcing your power to astrology (no, Mercury retrograde doesn’t get to run your life)

• Using seasons, archetypes, deities and zodiac energy as tools you can borrow to ignite what’s already within you

Jen also shares the heart behind her book (published by Llewellyn), a user-friendly “choose your own adventure” guide to moon manifestation.

Jen Sankey is an author, deck creator, tarot reader, professional witch, and speaker. She blends tarot, lunar magic, and spiritual guidance to create transformative tools.

What if manifestation isn’t failing because of your mindset, but because your home is working against your nervous system?

In this episode of The Alchemy Lounge, Victoria is joined by Feng Shui Master, Karena Sophia for a deeply grounding conversation about the invisible forces shaping our lives… and how aligning your physical environment can unlock flow, calm, and momentum almost instantly.

Karena shares her personal journey and how life changed when she completed Feng Shui Mastery.

Within just four weeks, Karena appeared on television as a Feng Shui expert, and from that point on, life began to move with ease instead of effort. She explains how balancing the energy of the home has a profound effect on nervous system regulation, identity, and the body’s ability to receive what the mind desires.

In this episode, we explore:

• Why mindset alone is not enough for manifestation

• How your home conditions your nervous system every single day

• The link between Feng Shui, stress, and “letting go”

• Why so many capable, self-aware people still feel stuck

• How small environmental shifts can create rapid, tangible change

Karena also shares real client outcomes, from babies conceived and soulmates met, to homes selling in days, incomes increasing 10x, businesses selling for millions, and remarkable health improvements.

This conversation will change the way you think about manifestation, healing, and the role your home plays in who you’re becoming.

Karena Sophia is a Feng Shui Master, Manifestation Coach, and Certified Hypnotherapist. She previously worked as an executive coach within a prestigious bank before transitioning into her current work, where she helps women align their homes, subconscious beliefs, and personal energy to create meaningful and lasting change.

Karena has studied manifestation, NLP, and hypnotherapy through teachers including Bob Proctor, Tony Robbins, Marisa Peer, and a spiritual master. Despite years of inner work and training, she experienced life as a constant struggle, until discovering the missing piece through Feng Shui Mastery.

Since completing her Feng Shui training 18 months ago, Karena has appeared on television as a Feng Shui expert and has supported clients in creating extraordinary shifts in their lives. She is the creator of the Feng Shui to Manifest Membership and is currently writing her first book, due for release later this year.

In this episode of The Alchemy Lounge Podcast, I’m joined by the wonderful Karolina Ross, a wellbeing coach and burnout recovery strategist, for a deeply human conversation about burnout, self-care, choice, and letting go of the endless “shoulds.”

Karolina works with tired, overwhelmed mums who are stuck in guilt and obligation, always putting everyone else first and themselves last. Together, we explore how burnout often creeps in quietly, the early warning signs your body and nervous system send, and why the cookie-cutter version of self-care simply doesn’t work for real life.

We talk about slowing down without pressure, honouring seasonal energy, breaking cycles of autopilot parenting and work, and reconnecting with intuition through simple, doable practices, not perfection.

This episode is a gentle reminder that you always have a choice, even when it doesn’t feel like it, and that calm, confidence, and joy don’t come from doing more, but from listening more closely to yourself.

✨ In this episode, we explore:

• What burnout actually looks like before it hits crisis point

• Why “should” is one of the most damaging words in our vocabulary

• How seasonal living can prevent burnout

• Nervous system regulation for real life (not Instagram life)

• Self-care without guilt, pressure, or unrealistic routines

About Karolina Ross
Karolina works with tired, overwhelmed mums who are stuck in shoulds and guilt — always putting everyone else first and leaving themselves last. She helps them slow down, care for themselves without pressure, and find more peace through self-compassion, boundaries, and simple routines that actually fit real life. No cookie-cutter approach or endless cups of coffee here — just gentle, doable steps back to calm, confidence, and joy.
