Tracy Cartwright with Jacqui O’Connor
8 May 2025
Kia ora! In this episode of Constellations and All That, I sit down with my friend Jacqui O’Connor—a visionary nurse, healer, and founder of Heart Place Hospital—to talk about what happens when a carer burns out… and decides to build a whole new system of soul-led healthcare.
We explore the emotional toll of frontline work, the ripple effect of healing carers, and the power of creating safe spaces for nervous system support, energy work, and true belonging. This is a conversation about multidimensional care, remembering our innate wisdom, and choosing community over collapse.
Tune in to uncover:
✨ Jacqui’s journey from burnout to founding Heart Place Hospital
✨ How Heart Place is transforming care for frontline workers, sensitives & helpers
✨ Why belonging, nervous system support, and energy healing matter in modern healthcare
✨ How joy, dance, and soul-led community are reshaping our collective healing
✨ The power of remembering we don’t need fixing—we need space to be human
