What happens when life changes… and suddenly you no longer fit the version of yourself you once knew?

In this episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn Rose and Dr Vicki Haspels explore the deeply human experience of change, identity, and transformation through a powerful metaphor:

What if you spent your life believing you were an orange… only to realise you were actually an apple?

From divorce, career changes, aging, motherhood, grief, and shifting relationships, to those quieter moments where something simply no longer feels right—this conversation dives into what it means when life asks us to become someone new.

Together they explore:

• how change often begins within before it shows up outside
  • the loneliness of transformation and finding your people again
  • why endings are not failures, but completed chapters
  • calming the nervous system when life feels uncertain
  • trusting the body’s signals when the old identity no longer fits
  • the courage it takes to stop trying to “fix” life and instead ask, “Who am I now?”
  • how soul growth often requires us to let old versions of ourselves fall away

Through the lens of Salt (body), Sage (inner wisdom), and Stardust (soul perspective), this episode offers a compassionate reminder that life is not happening to you—it is unfolding for you.

Closing with The Lovers card from the tarot—featuring the golden apple itself—the message becomes beautifully clear:

You cannot make the wrong choice.
Every path leads you closer to yourself.

A soulful conversation about change, identity, trust, and the sacred unfolding of becoming who you were always meant to be.

What if receiving isn’t something you earn, but something you allow?

In this episode, Keryn and Vicki explore the art of receiving, from accepting help and support, to opening to life, connection, and yourself.

Together, they unpack:

• Why receiving can feel uncomfortable or unsafe
• The role of the body and nervous system
• How vulnerability, trust, and worthiness shape our ability to receive
• The balance between boundaries and openness

With reflections through the Salt, Sage & Stardust lens, this conversation invites you to soften, trust, and let life meet you.

✨ Featuring a closing Tarot insight: The Ten of Wands — a reminder that you don’t have to carry everything alone.

💫 A gentle invitation

Where might life be asking you to receive, instead of push?

In this episode of Salt, Sage & Stardust, Keryn and Vicki explore something we all carry, yet often overlook:

✨ Your secret sauce.

Not something to chase. Not something to earn. But something already within you waiting to be recognised, trusted, and lived.

Through a grounded and heartfelt conversation, they unpack the idea that each of us has a unique energetic “recipe”, a blend of experiences, wisdom, sensitivity, and presence that shapes how we move through the world.

Together, they explore:

• What your “secret sauce” really is (and what it’s not)
• Why we often look outside ourselves instead of within
• The role of awareness in recognising your natural gifts
• How comparison and self-doubt can cloud what is already there
• The importance of trusting your own rhythm, way, and expression
• How life experiences shape and refine your unique essence

This episode is a gentle yet powerful reminder that you don’t need to add more to who you are, you simply need to remember.

Tarot Card - The Sun

A radiant reminder of joy, clarity, and authenticity. The Sun invites you to step fully into who you are without hesitation, without dimming, without second-guessing.

Your light is not something to earn, it’s something you’ve come here to express.

Closing Meditation

The episode closes with a beautiful, gentle meditation guided by Vicki, an invitation to soften, slow down, and reconnect with yourself.

A moment to step out of the noise and into the quiet knowing that what you’re seeking has been within you all along.

🎧 Listen, Reflect, Remember

You are not here to be like anyone else.
You are here to be fully you.

And that is your secret sauce ✨
