Ep 56: The Stories These Scars Hold 58:40

7M ago58:40

58:40

We're taught to erase our scars, that they get in the way of our beauty and perfection. What's been coming up for me that led to this episode is the wisdom that scars are the physical manifestation of the lives we've lived. They are a part of the stories our bodies hold. They can be evidence of both our pain and growth. I wonder if as souls we ever…

Ep 55: We're Here to Birth Many Things! 1:14:40

8M ago1:14:40

1:14:40

Our bodies are portals for creation. We have the ability to birth many, many expressions of life. But when our mainstream culture tells us that our worthiness is tied into birthing children, it creates a disconnection within ourselves if we accept that lie. Today’s episode is an Instagram Live recording where I speak to: Staying in connection with …

Ep 54: The Podcast Is Changing 40:38

9M ago40:38

40:38

The podcast is changing, beloved. In beautiful ways though. I've been feeling called to expandind into other topics that speak to the whole of us...or the very least, more of us. These topics include our connection to ourselves, our connection to the earth, the healing of our families and intimate relationships, the systems in our society that lead…

Ep 53: You Don't Have to Smile 43:18

11M ago43:18

43:18

You don't have to smile. You don't. I've been sitting with what it would be like to have a world where we can each show up with all the emotions that are present with us—showing up with the grief, the regret, the fear, the frustration—without feeling the need to "fix" yourself or those emotions before being in the room again. This episode explores …

Ep 51: No Version of Motherhood is Perfect 46:25

1y ago46:25

46:25

Today’s episode is about permission and grace. If you’re a mom/parent to angel babies, I encourage you to really give yourself the permission to do whatever supports your energy around this time. I also share how I respond when I’m asked if I’m a mother. And if you’re currently parenting or caretaking kiddos who are physically here, I shed light on…

Ep 50: Being Gentle With Yourself 7:49

1y ago7:49

7:49

Today’s episode is a prayer, an invitation to soften, to be gentle with yourself. There’s sometimes the belief–even if unconscious–that softening might transform someone into becoming weak or diminish their ability to be resilient. I’ve observed and experienced the opposite: that it’s ignoring the body’s invitation to soften that eventually leads t…

Ep 49: The Imperfect Healing Journey 50:28

1+ y ago50:28

50:28

I used to think that my healing journey needed to look a certain way and have a definite outcome. That eventually--no matter how long it took--I needed to rise out of the ashes like a phoenix then tell the world about it. Sitting with the realness of my unpredictable, and sometimes messy healing journey has taught me that there is no model for what…

Ep 48: Suffering In Silence 45:29

1+ y ago45:29

45:29

Feeling as though you're suffering in silence is perhaps one of the most common experiences after going through a loss. Silence and solitude might be exactly what you need in the earlier stages of your healing journey. And at some point, the silence or isolation may no longer support your healing. In this episode, I share: When silence and solitude…

Ep 47: The Dangers of the Spiritual Bypass 41:55

2y ago41:55

41:55

The "Spiritual Bypass" is often intended to be a reminder that we're spiritual beings having a human experience. It can also be used to dismiss or diminish our very real human experiences, which leads to us holding on to hurt instead of processing and releasing it. In this episode, I share: How the Spiritual Bypass showed up in my experience How it…

Ep 45: Are You Waiting for Your Comeback? 29:53

2+ y ago29:53

29:53

Hi Beloved - Have you been waiting for your comeback? To "uplevel" your life or quickly have another baby to show that your life after loss is better than before? I share the imbalances in our culture that are at the root of this, how it showed up in my own experience after loss, and why inner healing is necessary. If this resonates with you, be su…

Ep 43: Healing Relationships with Compassionate Communication 1:33:48

3y ago1:33:48

1:33:48

I consider myself a life-long learner, so it means a lot when I say that Compassionate Communication or Nonviolent Communication (NVC) has been one of the single most important practices I’ve learned. As my teacher, Steve Torma, puts it, Compassionate Communication isn’t just a tool for communication but a shift in consciousness. I’ve referred Comp…

I had the pleasure of working with Tia during her pregnancy as her “space-holder,” resource-connector, co-strategist, and emotional healing guide. I’ve been excited to share our follow-up conversation because Tia’s story is such a powerful example of what’s possible when pregnancy and birth are supported by community—family, friends, and profession…

Ep 40: Meet Birth & Postpartum Doula, Kris Bailey 45:18

3y ago45:18

45:18

Today’s episode features one of my favorite Birth & Postpartum Doulas, Kris Bailey. Knowing that you can add a Birth and Postpartum Doula to your birthing team helps to take the “scary” out of childbirth.

How do you use your painful experiences to give birth to a more powerful version of you? It's not only possible, but it's the transformation your life has been asking for. This level of inner healing may have felt out of reach if you haven't had the right tools and support. In this recording, I share: An invitation to join me for the Rebirth Group …

I thoroughly enjoyed today’s soulful conversation with Thérèse Cator. Thérèse is one of my teachers and mentors, and her work has guided me in walking the path of my own calling with more clarity and confidence…in being able to do the work beneath the work. To know her and share space with her is a gift. In this episode, we discuss: - What led to h…

Ep 37: Why Self-Love Is So Hard 1:08:12

3+ y ago1:08:12

1:08:12

Self-love is hard for most people. It isn’t a practice that’s encouraged in our culture. Instead, we’re continually fed messaging about what’s wrong with us and what we need to change to reach a certain standard. Now, when you’ve gone through a loss or infertility diagnosis, self-love feels even more out of reach. And yet, it is THE single most imp…

1:13:19

Welcome to 2022, beloved. How are you arriving? Is it with excitement? Some anxiety? With rules about what you need to do to make this the best year yet? We tend to feel that entering the New Year is like entering a magical portal where everything needs to now be new, better, and different. But growth and healing don’t operate that way. They move w…

Acupuncture is one of the healing modalities that support fertility and a healthy pregnancy.

Here’s more about Joannie and how to get in touch with…

Ep 33: Why People Don't Heal 46:27

3+ y ago46:27

46:27

Through working with clients for the past several years, and through doing my own healing work for even longer, this is one of the observations I’ve made: We sometimes get in the way of our own healing. It isn’t that we decide that we won’t heal. It’s that we unconsciously choose to stay where we are in the pain. It sounds irrational, but the reaso…

Ep 32: What Might Be Missing in Your Fertility Care 1:29:11

I share a lot about the limitations of our conventional healthcare model. And so, what an absolute pleasure it was to sit and chat with Naturopathic Physician, Dr. Monique Mazza, and learn more about what our care should actually entail. In this episode, we discuss: What Naturopathic Medicine is and how it’s different from Allopathic Medicine (or w…

Ep 31: How Sexual Trauma Shows Up in Pregnancy & Childbirth 1:41:18

3+ y ago1:41:18

1:41:18

Going through loss or infertility is difficult on its own. And having a history of sexual trauma adds even more layers of triggers and emotions to work through. Because these triggers and emotions intensify during pregnancy and childbirth, I want you to be aware of them. When they’re no longer operating in the background, you get to take your power…

This week’s episode with Pleasure Activist, Marisa Sullivan, is now one of my favorites! We discussed how absolutely magical the body’s anatomy is and the many ways in which it was built for pleasure. We also explored how trauma can inhibit pleasure and conception, and practices Marisa uses to help her clients reclaim both. This episode also introd…

Minisode: Room for Grace 8:12

We are so much better at giving grace to others than we are at giving grace to ourselves. I was inspired to share this mini-episode exploring what it means to have “room for grace” and the sense of peace and openness that can come as a result. If it speaks to you, perhaps you’re meant to hear it. :) If you do enjoy it, feel free to drop me a line v…

Ep 29: Mystical, Magical Experiences I've Had with My Angel Babies 39:56

4y ago39:56

39:56

I believe that we are spiritual beings expressed in physical bodies. It means that even after our babies have made their transition out of their physical bodies, they still exist in spirit. A few months ago, I did a podcast episode reading excerpts from “Memories of Heaven” by Dr. Wayne Dyer (Ep 24). The book features stories from parents whose lit…

Ep 28: Risk Factors Linked to Complications in Pregnancy & Childbirth 55:47

4y ago55:47

55:47

There is no separation between the mind and body. What impacts our thoughts and emotions also impacts what shows up in the body. As a Birth Doula, I also have the privilege of supporting birthing people as they bring their babies earthside. What I’ve learned is that our subconscious fears seem to come to a climax in the midst of childbirth because …

Today’s episode is a loving heart-to-heart. Listen to it when you have space to process and work through some questions that may potentially be challenging. Key among them: What’s at the root of your desire for having children? This isn’t to discourage you from wanting children. Children are beautiful. However, as you’re on this journey, I want you…

Just as heavy emotions or painful memories might come up for you on Mother’s Day and other special occasions, the same might be the case for your partner this Fathers Day (and other special days). What I’ve noticed with fathers though, is that they tend to prioritize your needs over theirs. This may lead to them hiding any emotions that may come up…

If having challenges on the pregnancy journey such as a loss or infertility diagnosis has left you feeling as though you're not a mother, I'm here to tell you that you 100% are. We've been using the wrong definition for motherhood. Our children become our children before they're here with us on Earth and our children are still our children even aft…

The Black birthing experience in the United States has such deep and rich history.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewi…

As a Birth Warrior you know that there are certain dates that are especially hard to work through: the anniversary of your baby’s estimated due date, the anniversary of the day they entered the world, and the anniversary of the day they left. My son’s birthday was on February 14th and boy were my emotions high as I moved closer to the date! In the …

This week’s topic on Ancestral Healing is not one that I’ve ever spoken to. And perhaps it was my ancestors themselves who inspired me to share this perspective with you. As I am coming off of the heels on an Energy Healing training based in the ancient African wisdom, ancestral healing is ripe in my being. The topic of connecting with ancestors mi…

In our very first episode for the New Year, I reflect on the moments in 2020 that brought me the greatest levels of joy, growth, and appreciation. And I end this episode …

I’ve known Sophia for years. She’s one of the dear friends who’ve been with me in the midst of my losses. In addition to being my Soul Sista, she’s also an Endo Warrior.

Challenges around fertility and pregnancy activate an ancient wound within us—the fear of being ostracized from our tribe (whether the one we were born into or the one we chose through our partner), the fear of our partner replacing us with another, “more fertile” mate, and the fear of losing opportunities for recognition and upward mobility. This …
