Hunting for Purpose Podcast

What does it really mean to be present? And what happens when we stop pushing through life and start becoming fully available to it?

In this deeply personal episode, Viola shares her journey from survival mode, control and constant pushing to a life rooted in presence, embodiment and inner authority.

Growing up in an environment shaped by conflict, she learned early on to be strong, independent and self-reliant. Over time, this strength became a way of surviving, while her connection to her body and emotions slowly faded. Years of physical tension and pain gradually brought her to recognize how deeply her emotional experiences were connected to what she was feeling in her body.

Through a powerful personal experience with hypnotherapy, her discovery of Human Design and her first transformative breathwork journey, Viola began reconnecting with herself, her body and her natural energy.

She explores why presence is not something we have to achieve, but something we can remember. It's more than being in the moment. It's about being fully available to life, accessing our inner authority and allowing what wants to emerge through us.

The episode also explores the bigger energetic shift towards 2027: the transition from the Cross of Planning to the Cross of the Sleeping Phoenix in Human Design, and why individuality, self-leadership and the power of the now are becoming increasingly important.



In this episode, we explore:

What presence really means and why it is so much more than living in the moment

How early experiences can shape our patterns of protection, control and disconnection

The relationship between unprocessed emotions, the body and physical tension

How hypnotherapy helped Viola transform an old childhood experience

Discovering Human Design as a pathway to self-acceptance and inner authority

The power of breathwork to reconnect with our life force, energy and aliveness

What embodiment feels like when we make decisions from presence rather than pressure

The shift towards 2027: from collective structures and conditioning to individuality and self-leadership

Why the power of the now may be one of our most valuable resources for the future



A moment to pause

During this episode, Viola guides you through a short presence practice using your breath, body awareness.

A simple invitation to pause, feel and remember that presence is always available to you.

A song for you

Viola wants to share this beautiful song with you. Let it be an invitation to embrace The Power of Now and tune into the frequency of surrender, love and receiving.

Let your body guide you. Feel the music, move with it and allow yourself to connect with your own energy.

Living with chronic illness as a Manifestor creates a very specific tension. You are still an initiator. You still have urges, impact and a natural desire for freedom, but you may also be living in a body with very real limitations around energy, pain, inflammation and capacity. In this episode, I’m sharing from my own lifelong experience with chronic illness, including what this latest chapter of POTS, MCAS and hypermobility has taught me about working with my Manifestor energy rather than continually pushing against my body.



We talk about three things that have become incredibly important for me: learning to separate chronic illness fatigue from a Manifestor rest cycle, understanding how your defined motor energy actually moves through your body, and becoming much more conscious about where your limited energy is being spent.



That means looking at pacing, responding, boundaries, people having access to your energy, and whether the energy you do have is actually being used to initiate what matters to you. Most importantly, this episode is about challenging the belief that chronic illness makes you less of a Manifestor.



Your limitations may be real, and there may be things to grieve, but you are still whole. You are still an initiator and you still have impact. Chronic illness may require you to listen to your body and use your energy far more consciously, but it does not take away who you are.

Ever feel like you're ready to make an impact on a bigger scale as a Manifestor, but actually putting yourself out there feels scary as feck? Or does the idea of taking an improv class make you want to run for the hills? This episode might be for you.

Maybe you've got something brand new you want to say, create, or initiate, but then your brain starts chiming in with all the reasons it could go wrong. What if you upset someone? What if people don't like it? What if you completely screw it up? In this episode, we're talking about the fears that come up along the Manifestor journey, and what the wonderfully weird (and sometimes wildly uncomfortable) world of Intentional Improv has taught me about navigating them.

We'll get into making mistakes, being seen and heard, letting go of control, and learning to trust yourself even when you have absolutely no idea what's coming next. Because here's the thing: trusting your voice is a skill you can hone, and you don't have to wait until you're fearless to start making the impact you're here to make.



Meet Jamie Clark

Jamie Clark is a 6/2 Emotional Manifestor with ONE channel (the 12-22) and the creator of Intentional Improv, a somatic and mindset practice that helps people get out of their heads, into their bodies, and learn to trust themselves when they have absolutely no idea what's going to happen next.

Once an incredibly shy wallflower who was terrified at the mere thought of getting onstage, Jamie now regularly performs hour-long shows that are completely made up on the spot, with absolutely no script. Though it’s an absolute blast now (key word is NOW- she used to freak out and get sick before shows she was so nervous!), her real impact comes from teaching others to do the same in their own lives, long after they've stepped out of her improv workshops, classrooms, and zoom rooms.

Through Intentional Improv, she helps entrepreneurs, creatives, and leaders get more comfortable with making mistakes, being seen and heard, and trusting whatever comes out of their mouths. And as a Manifestor herself, she's still figuring plenty of this stuff out along the way, too.

This is another bite-sized episode of the Hunting for Purpose podcast, where we take one really specific part of the Manifestor experience and unpack it in 15–20 minutes.

And today we’re talking about something almost every Manifestor knows: the creative urge that lands at the most inconvenient possible time. In the shower. In the middle of a massage. Or, very commonly, at 2am when you would actually quite like to be asleep. So what happens if you don’t initiate it straight away?

In this episode, I’m talking about what happens in your body when a Creative Urge lands, why all that newly activated energy can create so much pressure to immediately DO something, and why that pressure isn’t necessarily a sign that you need to leap out of bed and start creating. We’ll also look at the role of your Inner Authority before full initiation, and some very simple ways to acknowledge and initiate an urge (like writing it down, recording a voice note or even saying it out loud) without throwing yourself headfirst into a chaotic Creative Cycle at 2am.

Most importantly, we’re talking about the scarcity many Manifestors carry around their Creative Urges: the fear that if you don’t grab the urge immediately, it will disappear. Your urges aren’t going anywhere.

This episode is an invitation to build a more trusting relationship with them; one where you can receive the urge, let the immediate pressure off, take it through your Authority, and initiate it in the way and timing that actually feels correct for you.

In this episode, I’m sharing something much more personal than usual. My father, a 1/3 Splenic Manifestor, wrote a memoir about his life, and reading it gave me this incredibly clear view of what Manifestor energy can look like when it’s playing out across decades without any awareness of Human Design. The constant career changes, the huge Creative Urges, the rest cycles, the polarising impact, the resistance to informing, the need to do things his own way… so much of it was unmistakably Manifestor.



But the deeper thing I saw was much more confronting. His story showed me how powerful our initiating energy still is when we’re operating from unhealed wounds. In his case, a deep wound around belonging seemed to become tangled with achievement, praise and impact, and I could see how that shaped so much of what he initiated through his life. It made me come back to a question I think all Manifestors need to be willing to ask: Where am I actually initiating from?



Because we all have the same resources. Creative Urges. Influence. Initiating power. Impact. But those things don’t automatically create a positive legacy. In this episode, I talk about the responsibility we have to meet our own wounds, the damage we can create when we expect other people to meet them for us, and why self-awareness alone isn’t enough if we’re not willing to actually do the deeper work.
