Episode 9: Your Truth Will Set You Free - Beyond the Story & Into the Body

Episode 12: Respell Your Reality with Lisa Lister - Creativity, Devotion and the Art of Holding Your Magic

In this rich, soulful and creatively playful conversation, Sonia sits down with Lisa Lister — author of Witch, Self-Sorcery, Venus, and her newest book Respell Your Reality — for an exploration of creativity, devotion, embodiment, rhythm, and the art of holding your magic. Together, they dive into the Women of the Wild Rose lineage, cyclical living, the body as a creative vessel, feminine self-creation, and the relationship between imagination, discipline, and devotion. They also explore the underworld journey of transformation, grief, rebirth, and what it truly means to stay with the art long enough for it to become real. This episode is an invitation to remember your magic, reconnect with your creative fire, and reimagine the story you’re living. 00:00 — Opening Hook: “What matters about this art?” 00:36 — Welcome + introduction 02:42 — Discovering Witch + creative lineage 05:00 — Wild roses, Venus + remembered magic 08:33 — France, astrology + Venus lines 14:12 — Rewriting women’s stories + self-creation 17:49 — ReSpell Your Reality + Moon Mavens 22:12 — Rhythmic intelligence, cycles + the body 28:40 — Flow, structure + containing creative power 34:27 — Devotion, discipline + showing up for the art 40:00 — The body as vessel + creative container 45:00 — Persephone, the underworld + “Return to Me” 47:08 — Darkness, grief + creative transformation 50:00 — What matters?

Episode 11: Bringing the Past to Light - What the Soul Remembers and the Body Knows

Have you ever felt that the patterns in your life — the ones you can’t quite explain — might be pointing to a story once forgotten, now ready to be brought to light? In this episode of Contain Her Magic, Sonia is joined by hypnosis practitioner Julianne Thon, whose work was shaped by a deeply personal loss — the passing of her son after years of navigating an unexplained neurological condition. This experience opened the door to a new understanding of healing, presence, and the soul’s journey. Through introspective hypnosis, Julianne shares how past experiences — from this lifetime, our lineage, or beyond — can leave imprints on the body and subconscious, showing up as patterns, sensations, illnesses or unexplained fears. The conversation expands into the idea of polydimensional awareness, inviting us to consider that memory, identity, and time may not be as linear as we think. At its core, this episode is an invitation to trust the wisdom of your soul — and to notice how it speaks to you through your body, your experiences, and your inner knowing— guiding you toward greater clarity, healing, and wholeness. ⏱️ Timestamps * 0:00 – Opening hook: soul, infinity & deeper awareness * 1:00 – Introduction & episode theme * 5:15 – Julianne’s story: her son, loss & spiritual shift * 10:10 – How her journey led to hypnosis * 11:30 – What is introspective hypnosis? * 14:00 – Why people seek this work (fears, illness, patterns) * 17:20 – Relationships, soul families & recurring dynamics * 22:50 – Healing example: family wounds & forgiveness * 26:40 – How experiences show up in the body * 27:30 – Case study: past life & physical symptoms * 35:15 – Trauma, illness & healing through awareness * 38:45 – Introducing polydimensional awareness * 39:40 – Beyond linear time: soul, memory & other dimensions * 45:00 – Patterns, ancestral lines & soul agreements * 51:25 – Gifts, intuition & past lives * 59:00 – Soul purpose & reclaiming your gifts * 1:00:50 – Integrating insights into daily life * 1:05:00 – Do you believe in magic? * 1:07:45 – Closing reflection & embodiment * 1:09:30 – CTA: free practice, Yoga Nidra & retreat 🌙 Continue the Journey If something in this conversation resonated, here are a few ways to explore a little deeper: ✨ With Julianne Thon 🌐 https://www.juliannethon.com [https://www.juliannethon.com] 🎧 Souls on Tap podcast [https://www.youtube.com/@SoulsonTapPodcast] Discover more about introspective hypnosis and Julianne’s approach to healing, remembrance, and the soul’s journey. 🌿 Explore with Sonia If you feel called to continue this work in your own way: ✨ 5 Minutes Just for You A short, guided practice to pause, reconnect, and begin listening to what your body already knows. 🎧 Free audio download  [https://soniabaillon.com/5-minutes-just-for-you/] ✨ Online Yoga Nidra Workshop A deeper space to rest, restore, and access expanded states of awareness. 🌙 Learn more [https://soniabaillon.com/product/yoga-nidra-workshop/] ✨ Contain Her Magic — Live Experience Join me in person at The Big Retreat Festival for a mind-body coaching experience to reconnect, move, and reclaim your light. 📍 May 24 | Pembrokeshire, Wales 🎟️ The Big Retreat 22-25 May 2026 [https://www.thebigretreatfestival.com/] 💫 Stay Connected If this resonated, send it to a woman who might need this conversation… and the healing it can open. 🤍 Support the Podcast:  ⭐ Subscribe, rate & review Contain Her Magic ☕ Donate to support the show: https://www.paypal.me/soniabaillon [https://www.paypal.me/soniabaillon] 🌕 Follow Contain Her Magic on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/containhermagic] 💬Contact Sonia: containhermagic@gmail.com [containhermagic@gmail.com] 💫 Learn more about Sonia's yoga and transformational coaching programs [https://soniabaillon.com/services] 🌐Website: https://soniabaillon.com [https://soniabaillon.com/] 👉 Follow Sonia: Facebook - soniabaillon.com [https://www.facebook.com/sonia4embodiedjoy] Instagram @soniabaillon [https://www.instagram.com/soniabaillon/] YouTube - Embody Your Magic [https://www.youtube.com/@SoniaBaillon] 🎵Soundtrack for Contain Her Magic - Return To Me  [https://open.spotify.com/track/3i6ucpwA3ZvfUuhLE0fp70?si=0b9e2a1c608b40d4]by Scenic Kiss (Sonia Baillon & Mark Gibson)

Episode 10: The Messy Before the Magic - Menopause, Midlife and Remembering Who You Are

In this episode of Contain Her Magic, Sonia is joined by Dr. Karen Lamb and Dr. Aliza Cicerone, naturopathic doctors and hosts of the Messy Midlife podcast, for a grounded and honest conversation about midlife and menopause. Together, they explore what’s actually happening in the body during perimenopause, the wide range of symptoms women may experience, and why this transition often feels so non-linear and unpredictable. The conversation also opens into something deeper—how this phase can shift identity, reshape boundaries, and invite a more authentic way of living. This is a conversation about learning to hold the complexity of this time without collapsing… and discovering that within the mess, there may be something quietly magical—an invitation to return to yourself and remember who you are. 00:00 – Opening hook: “The messy is also freeing… it’s like a pinball machine” 00:32 – Podcast intro 01:09 – Episode introduction: midlife, menopause & “the messy before the magic” 01:50 – What perimenopause actually feels like (symptoms & shifts) 03:24 – Meet the guests: Karen Lamb & Aliza Cicerone 03:55 – How Messy Midlife podcast began 06:30 – Midlife, authenticity & letting go of perfection 09:39 – Karen’s background: mind-body & sensitivity 13:53 – Aliza’s background: women’s health & menopause 17:34 – Sonia’s personal story (endometriosis & non-linear menopause experience) 20:18 – No “right way”: conventional vs naturopathic approaches 23:10 – Mind-body awareness & listening to the body 25:31 – Boundaries shift: when “no” becomes a full-body no 27:24 – Hormones, identity & reorienting toward self 29:08 – Perimenopause as a turning point & wake-up call 31:10 – Identity shifts, choice & redefining your life 33:17 – What is the “messy” of midlife? 34:06 – The messy is freeing & the “pinball machine” of menopause 36:00 – Midlife as a rise into power & wisdom 36:30 – Recalibration, unpredictability & learning to pause 39:12 – Non-negotiables: sleep, energy & self-respect 39:55 – Support: community & finding the right practitioner 40:57 – Letting go of the “good girl” & old roles 42:12 – From chaos to creation: the magic in the messy 45:16 – Final reflections: community, compassion & grace 48:38 – Holding complexity without collapsing 50:27 – Closing the conversation 51:00 – CTA: resources, podcast, YouTube, support 52:12 – Guided practice: holding the messy with presence 54:00 – Closing reflection: becoming, power & remembering who you are ✨ Continue the Journey Continue the conversation with Dr. Karen Lamb & Dr. Aliza Cicerone on the Messy Midlife podcast, and connect with them on social media for ongoing insight and support. 🎙️Podcast Links: * Spotify:  https://open.spotify.com/show/6gq84HyZA1QM9PTs1EY1yo [https://open.spotify.com/show/6gq84HyZA1QM9PTs1EY1yo] * Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/messy-midlife/id1852048250 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/messy-midlife/id1852048250] * Youtube:  https://www.youtube.com/@MessyMidlifePodcast [https://www.youtube.com/@MessyMidlifePodcast] 🤍Socials: * IG:  https://www.instagram.com/messymidlifepodcast/?hl=en [https://www.instagram.com/messymidlifepodcast/?hl=en] * Tiktok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@messymidlifepodcast [https://www.tiktok.com/@messymidlifepodcast] 🌿 Curious about sensitivity?

Episode 9: Your Truth Will Set You Free - Beyond the Story & Into the Body

There comes a moment when something no longer fits… a quiet knowing that who you’ve been isn’t the whole truth of who you are. There was a you before the journey began — before the world shaped you — and your body still remembers her. In this solo episode, Sonia shares a personal identity shift and explores how identity is held not just in the mind, but in the body — in your nervous system, your posture, your patterns, and your emotional responses. This is a conversation about cycles of becoming — of releasing what no longer fits… and allowing yourself to be reborn into a version of you that feels more aligned. At the heart of it is freedom — the freedom to choose how you show up, and who you become next. Because real transformation doesn’t happen by force… It happens through awareness, embodiment, and the willingness to choose differently — again and again. This is an invitation to move beyond the story… and return to yourself. Wild. Free. And already whole. 00:00 — Podcast intro 01:50 — Opening reflection: identity, story, and the self before conditioning 03:20 — The realization: there was a you before the journey began 05:00 — Meditation experience and releasing old identity 07:30 — Freedom as a core value and stepping beyond past experience 10:00 — Relationship example: shifting from protection to openness 12:30 — Identity, adaptation, and the moment things no longer fit 14:00 — The body as a guide: sensation, posture, and emotional signals 17:30 — Listening to discomfort and returning to your true nature 20:00 — Personal shift: feeling lighter, more aligned, more “you” 22:00 — Identity, story, and the body as truth-teller 24:00 — Bottom-up transformation: becoming through the body 26:30 — Alignment, “frequency,” and how change unfolds 28:30 — The role of choice in embodied transformation 30:00 — The cycle of becoming, letting go, and rebirth 32:30 — Invitation to create yourself anew 33:30 — Guided somatic practice 34:40 — Closing reflections: returning to what your body has always known 36:00 — Outro + ways to support the podcast   🌿Continue the Journey If this episode resonated, here are a few ways to deepen the work: ✨ Contain Her Magic — Mind-Body Coaching Experience [https://soniabaillon.com/contain-her-magic-experience/] An immersive workshop where you don’t just think about change — you embody it. 🔥For women ready to reignite their creative fire - without burning out. ✨ The Well [https://www.knowltonwell.com/workshops] —Knowlton, QC (April 25) Join Sonia in a beautiful, grounded space to experience this work in community. ✨ Big Retreat Festival [https://www.thebigretreatfestival.com/] — Wales, UK (May 24) Experience Contain Her Magic in a powerful collective setting. ✨ Online Workshop [https://soniabaillon.com/mind-body-coaching-workshop/] - From Stuck to Clear (Introductory)  A guided experience to explore your goals through the wisdom of your body. ✨ 5 Minutes Just for You [https://soniabaillon.com/5-minutes-just-for-you/] - FREE Download A simple, guided pause to help you reconnect with your body, your breath, and your inner truth — even on the busiest days.   💫 Stay Connected If this episode spoke to you, share it with someone who might need to hear it too — and let us know in the comments: Share your truth! 🤍 Support the Podcast:  ⭐ Subscribe, rate & review Contain Her Magic ☕ Donate to support the show: https://www.paypal.me/soniabaillon [https://www.paypal.me/soniabaillon] 🌕 Follow Contain Her Magic on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/containhermagic]   🎧 Continue Listening If you’d like to explore this journey of identity more deeply, these episodes expand on key themes from today: ✨ Episode 6 [https://containhermagic.podbean.com/e/episode-6-part-1-redefining-resilience-strong-capable-exhausted/] — Redefining Resilience (Part 1 & 2) Exploring how we adapt through life’s challenges — and when those patterns no longer serve us. ✨ Episode 7 [https://containhermagic.podbean.com/e/episode-7-putting-faith-into-action/] — Putting Faith Into Action Trusting your inner guidance and taking aligned steps forward. ✨ Episode 8 [https://containhermagic.podbean.com/e/episode-8-living-by-design-how-trusting-what-belongs-will-lift-you/] — Living by Design Aligning with what truly belongs to you and allowing life to meet you there.   💬Contact Sonia: containhermagic@gmail.com [containhermagic@gmail.com] 💫 Learn more about Sonia's yoga and transformational coaching programs [https://soniabaillon.com/services] 🌐Website: https://soniabaillon.com [https://soniabaillon.com/] 👉 Follow Sonia: Facebook - soniabaillon.com [https://www.facebook.com/sonia4embodiedjoy] Instagram @soniabaillon [https://www.instagram.com/soniabaillon/] YouTube - Embody Your Magic [https://www.youtube.com/@SoniaBaillon] 🎵Soundtrack for Contain Her Magic - Return To Me  [https://open.spotify.com/track/3i6ucpwA3ZvfUuhLE0fp70?si=0b9e2a1c608b40d4]by Scenic Kiss (Sonia Baillon & Mark Gibson)

Episode 8: Living by Design - How Trusting What Belongs Will Lift You

What happens when life suddenly takes an unexpected turn? In this engaging and uplifting conversation, Sonia sits down with entrepreneur, yoga teacher, Human Design guide, and author Jaime Moar to explore what it means to truly live in alignment with yourself. When Jaime faced a serious and unexpected illness at a pivotal moment in her life, it deepened her commitment to trusting her inner authority and living by design rather than by default. Through honest storytelling, laughter, and powerful insights, Jaime shares how learning to recognize what belongs to you — and what does not belong to you — can transform the way you move through life. Together they explore Human Design, inner authority, the healing power of community, and practical tools for living more intentionally.
