We were lucky to catch up with Delphine Rose recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Delphine , we’re so appreciative of you taking the time to share your nuggets of wisdom with our community. One of the topics we think is most important for folks looking to level up their lives is building up their self-confidence and self-esteem. Can you share how you developed your confidence?
It is a topic I am passionate about because it is core to the healing journey. I have had to work on self-esteem and confidence for myself, for my children, and now with my clients. As a child, I was very shy and lacked confidence. My mother, meaning well, put me forward a year at school by teaching me to read early. I was always the youngest in the class by far, and because I was also much smaller than other children, I often felt “small” inside — insecure and unsure of my place.
I tried to compensate by being smart, but as I grew into a young adult, I realised I needed to find a deeper foundation for self-love and confidence. Through my healing journey, I discovered that the more I released the past, tended to old wounds, and reconnected with a more authentic expression of myself, the more naturally confident I became.
Spiritual wisdom from ancient lineages, together with therapeutic work, helped me see myself as a unique being with purpose and love to share. I also learned to develop my natural skills and practise consistently — even the most gifted person needs training to grow mastery. Over time, my self-esteem became rooted in self-healing, self-knowing, and developing the skills within my true zone of genius.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Many moons ago, I left a promising career in Finance in the City of London to follow a path of heart, purpose, and healing. What began as a private search for my own wellbeing — long before social media or online wellness — quickly became a calling to support others. In my early thirties, just after having my second child, I embarked on a four-year university degree in homeopathy. That training became the foundation of my healing practice and opened the door to a lifelong study of energy medicine and the profound connection between mind, body, and spirit.
As my work grew, I found myself increasingly drawn to ancient spiritual lineages and to the reclamation of the deep feminine. I was part of the early movement of Divine Feminine healers, studying with pioneers like Alana Fairchild, while simultaneously immersing myself in Taoist, yogic, and shamanic teachings. This integrated approach gave my work its unique signature — precise energetic understanding combined with feminine wisdom and real-life groundedness.
Two decades later, I am in a new and exciting chapter: stepping fully into the role of wise woman and mentor. My work today focuses on helping women — especially in midlife and beyond — reclaim vitality, leadership, and inner coherence. I support them through a blend of homeopathy, energy medicine, Taoist and Ayurvedic teachings, and spiritual mentoring.
I am currently developing expanded offerings for 2026, including my Second Spring Vitality Reset, in-depth soul mentoring containers, and the next evolution of my teaching around feminine leadership and midlife radiance. It’s a deeply fulfilling moment in my journey — sharing work that is not only learned, but lived and embodied.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
When I left my banking career, I took a leap of faith without knowing where it would lead. That single decision — to trust something deeper than logic — shaped the entire trajectory of my life.
1. Trust
Learning to trust life and trust myself has been essential. It’s not passive; it’s a disciplined practice. The mind prefers control and predictability, but it only sees a fraction of what is possible. Trust allows us to follow the threads that the soul is quietly weaving.
Advice: Begin with small acts of trust — follow an inner nudge, say yes to something that feels meaningful, even if it’s not fully “safe.” Trust grows through evidence we create by acting.
2. Courage
Courage strengthens our ability to take action, even when there is risk, uncertainty, or the possibility of failure. Every step I took — from studying homeopathy to building a practice — required moments of bravery. You only discover your direction through movement; if you stay in your head, nothing becomes real.
Advice: Don’t wait to feel ready. Take a step, assess, and adjust. Confidence is built through experience, not theory.
3. Deep Listening and Stillness
The most transformative skill I’ve cultivated is deep listening — to my body, my intuition, and the subtle signals of life. Stillness creates the space where insight can emerge. As a collective, we are moving toward a more intuitive way of living; reason and discernment matter, but intuition is the higher intelligence that guides our evolution.
Advice: Create regular moments of quiet. Practice noticing before reacting. Over time, your intuitive clarity becomes reliable and precise.
These three qualities — trust, courage, and deep listening — have shaped every important decision in my life. They are also accessible to anyone willing to begin.
Do you think it’s better to go all in on our strengths or to try to be more well-rounded by investing effort on improving areas you aren’t as strong in?
In my root lineage of Arhatic Yoga — a modern spiritual and healing tradition founded by Grand Master Choa Kok Sui — we are taught that the goal is to become an integrated human being. That means neither abandoning our natural strengths nor trying to master everything. Instead, we focus on developing a balanced, functional, and purposeful inner architecture.
Being “well-rounded” in this context doesn’t mean becoming a jack of all trades. It means cultivating a level of personal mastery that allows us to live with an open heart, a clear mind, and the ability to take aligned action in the world.
Most people are familiar with the chakra system. In Arhatic Yoga, each chakra is connected to a psychological function — confidence, communication, willpower, intuition, love, grounding. When one centre is overdeveloped or underdeveloped, we become imbalanced. For example, spending hours meditating while struggling to pay bills or maintain stability reflects strong upper centres and weak lower centres.
Master Choa often reminded his students that there is no point in having beautiful spiritual experiences in and out of itself, we need to be able to become better humans.
That teaching stayed with me. Our growth only becomes meaningful when it translates into how we show up — for our families, our communities, and the collective.
So my view is this:
Honour your strengths, absolutely — they point to your purpose.
But also fortify the areas that allow you to function as a whole, resilient human being.
Confidence, communication, discipline, and practical life skills support your spiritual or creative gifts. When these aspects work together, you become not only more effective, but more fulfilled — grounded enough to build something real and generous enough to contribute to the world in a meaningful way.
