Show notes

Tara Shields joins Sebastian in this episode to share her journey from a high-pressure fashion career in Melbourne to becoming a kinesiologist based in Byron Bay. Through kinesiology, emotional work, and energy healing, Tara guides people to unlock deeper truths, clear old beliefs, and live with more alignment, vitality, and authenticity. Her story is a powerful example of how one can move from numbing pain to cultivating self-love, purpose, and resilience.

You’ll hear how Tara’s early life, shaped by a family struggling with alcoholism and emotional suppression, led her to develop coping strategies of perfectionism, busyness, and self-numbing. Even in success, she carried insomnia, digestive issues, anxiety, feeling unworthy—until she discovered kinesiology.

Topics Covered What is kinesiology & how it works (tools, modalities, muscle testing) The subconscious mind vs. conscious mind; how beliefs are stored & affect your life Emotional dominoes: tracing back through fears to primal beliefs (eg “if I fail, I’ll be alone / unloved”) Trauma, grief & loss: miscarriage, passing of parents; how Tara processed these Physical signs of emotional trauma & metaphysical readings (body as barometer) Stress as a root cause: its impact on digestion, sleep, work, relationships
