Philippa Ross - Human Ecologist & Enthusiologist Cultivate the conditions for your soul, heart, mind and body to flourish the way nature intended Master the Game of Life – Connect. Pause. Engage.

I have combined my personal experiences, professional qualifications in psychology and passion for the environment into a skill-set I call the Personal Intelligence Programme (P.I.P) to help you find your True North. The programme focuses on the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical parts of being human, to give you the tools to master the game of life - enhancing your wellbeing, enabling you

to create a measure of your own success and accomplishments, build the confidence and courage to be true to yourself and grab life by the balls so you have a bloody good time while you have the privilege of living. Respond

• Connect to what inspires you – the true nature of who you are. (spiritual)
• Pause to develop awareness and understanding of what your emotions (energy in motion) are telling you. (emotional)
• Engage your brain to consciously attend to matter that matters to you. (mental)
• Respond with actions that harmonise your soul, heart, mind and body matter to work as a team. (physical)

Like, Aristotle, I believe knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom. P.I.P will help you connect, direct and transform your wisdom to reveal the depth of your own intelligence and what matters to you so you can use your own value to add value to the world around you. I have an Honors Degree in Psychology, an Advanced Diploma in Child Development, am a Reiki practitioner, Equine Assisted Learning and Energy Dance facilitator. I've studied and researched quantum physics, positive psychology, human ecology, energy psychology, ontology, philosophy, epigenetics and psychoneuroimmunology in my quest to quench an insatiable thirst for knowledge and understanding about the intrinsically interconnected web of life and our connection to nature. I'm the Great, Great, Great Granddaughter of the Polar Explorer Sir James Clark Ross who charted the oceans to both polar regions using the earths magnetic field to navigate his way. He discovered the North Magnetic Pole in 1831 and the Ross Sea and Ross Ice Shelf, Antarctica in 1841 while searching for the South Pole. We are all descendants of the ocean. It is the source of all life. It’s crucial we protect our environment as we’re all part of a whole eco system that sustains the cycle of life. Our health, our internal eco system is affected by the environment around us. Our ability to flourish is reliant on our capacity to connect to the universal intelligence and create an environment that harmonises humanity and the planet; the playground where we live out our lives

My friend Debbie has just launched the most fabulous weekly card reading channel on YouTube.
What sets her apart from the gazillion others is that she uses playing cards which are the oldest system of divination
I just love the way she reveals the cards like chapters of a story, and explains how they connect to one another, so by the end, she literally tells 'Your Story in the Cards' - a delicious reflection of the title of her channel.
Go and have a look for yourself and if it resonates, subscribe and comment to help her get her magnificent gift out in the world.

My name is Debbie and I live in Auckland, New Zealand but was born in England, immigrating to New Zealand in early 2000. My passion is reading cards using the oldest system of divination that being playing cards! I have studied many methods of cartomancy and the system I use today is a combination o...

What a privilege to be the first person to interview Tracey Schubert to celebrate the launch of her epic, ground breaking, meticulously researched, trilogy of books that highlight what was once considered ‘conspiracy theories,’ that are now coming out as ‘truths’ across the globe.
Tracey shares her six year journey in writing and finally publishing her books called ‘From Covid to the End Game – The Luciferian Agenda’ that piece together the intricate entangled web of divisive, destructive, underhand toxic plans to destroy humanity and nature’s wellbeing.
There's no other book like this in the world.

Look around to see the truth behind writer, speaker and mystic, Neville Goddard’s word - “The world is a mirror, forever reflecting what you are doing, within yourself.”

Tap into the fantabulous insight my guest Jeremy Pierson shares about the transformative journey we can experience when we fully accept - rather than reject who we think we are. He shares the impact of how the layered stories he created, carried, and hid behind, led him on a paradoxical journey of pain and pleasure - juggling life as an ordained minister and ballroom dance teacher while secretly battling addiction, identity conflict, and spiritual experiences he didn’t yet understand.

In my element with the penguins and featured in the NZ Herald Cruise Travel special.

How does your expertise as a human ecologist lend itself to informative and engaging cruise lectures?

My work is founded on science, ecology and the earths magnetic field – just like my ancestor, Sir James Clark Ross. He discovered the North Magnetic pole and charted the oceans, while I help people navigate their way True North and explore the relationship between their inner world and the natural environment to create meaningful and fulfilling lives that flow with their own natural rhythm.

• What is your personal connection to Antarctica?

My Great, Great, Great Grandfather, Sir James Clark Ross discovered the Ross Sea region in 1841.

• You’ve recently spent time in Antarctica onboard Aurora Expeditions Ross Sea Odyssey as a guest speaker – what's it like down there?
The visual and auditory landscapes of Antarctica are sublime and a majestical haven for wildlife, especially the adorable penguins. It’s a place where you really get to feel what it’s like to be a part of something bigger than yourself. The tranquility is exhilarating and you can literally smell the purity of the air and feel yourself unwind. The stresses and strains of the world have no place here; the only existence is in the moment - peace of mind, body and soul rule.

• For our readers who have never been to Antarctica, what is the one thing that immediately takes your breath away?

How vast everything is – the expanse of ocean and the mesmerizing shapes and colours of the icebergs. How fearless the penguins are of humans and a renewed respect for what my ancestor and crews would have had to endure on their journey in unknown territory negotiating treacherous weather and sea conditions.

*. Many expedition cruises now have experts on board, how does this enhance the journey?

On board experts quite literally broadens your awareness of the extraordinary interconnected web of life and the miraculous way nature works - from ocean currents to rock formations, wildlife to historic explorations – all shared with genuine enthusiasm.

• How do your lectures and conversations change how people view Antarctica and the environment around them?

Lectures and conversations help people connect to the personal stories that inspired their love of their subject and why they do the work they do which has an exponential ripple effect on passengers to integrate their own experiences and gifts to protect our environment and become ambassadors for the planet.

*. How can cruise-goers get the most
out of an on-board guest speaker?

Take advantage of the ‘on tap’ wealth of wisdom. They’re fun, informative and inspiring. Don’t dismiss a topic because it hasn’t interested you in the past. I now have new love of geology.

• Some people worry an expedition trip to Antarctica is too intrepid, how would you reassure them?

A cruise ship expedition is a far cry from the type of expeditions explorers endured in the past. The ships are luxurious. The food is devine. Relax and enjoy with peace of mind the crew and expedition leaders take great pride in looking after you.

• If someone has always dreamed of visiting Antarctica but hasn’t yet visited, what would you say to them?

What are you waiting for!?
