About this podcast
Welcome to Self Discovery Gal, a podcast for women who know they're meant for more.
I'm your host Temma, and this is a space for honest conversations about creating a life that feels like your own. We talk about identity, intuition, courage, self-trust, healing, freedom, somatic work, the nervous system, and what it really looks like to choose yourself.
Whether you're navigating a major life transition, questioning everything, or simply craving a deeper connection with yourself, you'll find thoughtful conversations that inspire you to live with more intention.
I believe that the quality of your life is truly shaped by the questions you're willing to ask and the courage to follow the answers..
So, let's get curious.
