Awakened Woman Self Care podcast

When everything appears nice and pleasant and comfortable, it's tough to walk away. As the boiling frog metaphor illustrates, we might not notice we are in trouble until it's too late. At this moment on the Earth it is important to pay attention to who, what and where you might be giving away parts of yourself to by playing nice. Truly now is the time to stop pretending pleasantville is a good pla...

It's time for many of us to say goodbye to fears of missing out, and false ideas of what we think should be. We have been conditioned to believe that we can miss out or be unsafe by not adhering to standards which originate entirely outside of our own truth. We then can miss the clear signals coming from our own heart home because we have not been embodying ourselves. When we feel uncomfortable or...

This month is another powerful one and it is more and more noticeable that things are changing and need to change in our world. There is a deep knowing of this in our own bodies, and yet, many of us are also experiencing a recurrence of things that feel like old patterns. It's confusing. We know we are becoming more, and we are also experiencing physical ailments, heightened emotions and loss of a...

This episode is not just about pelvic health, it's about how we can open our consciousness to include more of what we choose for our own bodies and our own health. Ever since I experienced a prolapse I knew I wanted to do a podcast episode that would weave the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical components of our human being-ness. My powerful guest is Dr. Brianne Grogan who brings forward a...

In this episode award winning author and spiritual teacher Carrie Triffet shares her gentle and powerfully heart opening experiences and relationship with nature as a path to self discovery. She says that the natural world is the easiest place to notice how miracles work. "Miracles are the nature of life itself and if we are not having constant miracles and constant joyful noticing of amazing thin...

This episode is not just a conversation about one thing—business, it is a joyful exploration of the evolution of our human expressions and what we are moving toward. Elaira Tickute is here to "heal and rebuild (the) business paradigm" and of course it's not possible to separate ourselves from business because business is meant to be rooted in the "currency of care," as Elaira calls it. She does th...

  Being misunderstood is a primal wound many of us are experiencing recently. Triggers abound in the world right now. Freeing ourselves to be misunderstood is part of the powerful and profound work we can do right now on our beautiful planet. It's time to stop plucking at the leaves of what isn't working and get to the roots. Trusting the truth that comes from the core of our own purity is to rele...

As we move beyond traditions and dogmas, our deep spontaneous knowing of what wants to express now comes forward. A healing soup that moves like a pulse through our physical bodies. In contrast to what is happening in the external, it feels like joy, like power and like pure love. The invitation of this episode is to notice where and how you can notice and bring forward more of this sweet hummm ri...

Host Christine Pensa explores the feeling of being at your "wit's end" and the implications that has for you and for all of us in this moment. Many of us are coming to the edge of the place of not knowing what to do. It can be perplexing and we can feel uneasy. What if we could allow ourselves to be in that place without fixing it? What if we could let this be the dismantling of what has been in o...

Host Christine Pensa explores the often taboo subject of anger and how women express and mostly repress it because it is "not nice." This is an episode of self exploration and questioning. How can you recognize and release the patterns behind the negative emotions. What is the message these emotions are pointing you toward and how can you alchemize them into creating what you actually desire in th...

The divine Kahu Lahela was the perfect guest to begin the new year of 2022 and as the first episode of Season Four. It is a powerful, and an empowering episode. As Lahela explained, she considers herself a Kahu of balance, as a bridge between the light and the dark and a bridge to Source. For her it means being a keeper of harmony, balance and inner peace to help and remind people who they truly,...

In this episode host Christine Pensa talks about how we have been conditioned to believe that we are a category or that we can only express as one thing—specialists. Like the monoculture that dominates our food and entertainment industries, the specialist or the "one way of doing things" method is breaking down and is ready to be replaced. In fact, what we are seeing unfolding in the collective is...

This beautiful episode and conversation began with Heidi's sharing her knowing that the time to "break free into our aliveness" is now. As Heidi says, the time for sitting on the fence is over. She says, "It's now a desperate call. We need people to Be their shining lights." The planet, the cosmos needs us all to be our shining lights. Our job is to let go of the shore and move into the river of o...

Podcast host Christine recorded this episode after a short and deeply nourishing personal retreat where she was able to tune into her own natural flow of pure love. A big piece of her journey was the knowing she wanted to physically connect with people in her community who she had only known online. These connections planted the seeds for the unfolding of the new human permaculture image which rev...

My guest this week is Ashmi Pathela the creatrix, author and artist behind the book, Awakening the Heart of Humanity . She calls it, "a journey into remembering who you are and why you're here."

Trusting the prompts of her heart, she continued to build...

Christine's guest in this episode of the podcast was Kate Joyner the creatrix of The Dancing Serpent Mystery School. The conversation opened by diving right into the alchemical art of self healing. Kate says the journey begins with knowing ourselves. To be able to truly know how we work and then beginning to operate more from the wholeness of ourselves and less from our fragmented selves. Kate cal...

This episode was inspired by Tree and how trees are modelling perfectly the beauty, ease and grace of nature's cycles. The cyclical nature of a tree shows us that letting go is not a loss, but rather a transmutation into the next level, the next evolution of what will blossom for humanity. Christine invited listeners to tune into their own capacity to stand strongly rooted in their own source conn...

This episode (as always) was inspired by the listeners who call forward what wants to be heard, and by an instagram post on neutrality. The post came from Dr. Lori Earley and she said in her account @phoenixrising medicine, "Neutrality is not an option." What are we choosing in this moment, at this pivotal time on the planet? When chaos and polarities are amplified, we can retreat from that cacoph...

Christine's guest is Gabriela Gutierrez, an independent scholar and practitioner of oracular arts and shamanism. The episode opened with a discussion about opening to joy/ecstasis even in the face of those most traumatic events that we are currently living. The definition of ecstasis is; "A magic state where your consciousness reaches another plane and creativity flows unimpeded." Can we hold the...

For many of us how the new consciousness is coming in is not what we "thought" it would look like, and yet it is exactly what we KNEW it would be. Because everything we thought was part of the lies, everything we (heart) knew is part of the truth. Each day we can choose to release more of what was never us. You are the being in charge. Turning inward, tuning back into the truth of ourselves. How d...

This episode is an exploration of the nature of healing and what is changing and evolving for us as humans in this now moment as we consider opening to more of our own self healing capabilities. Exploring the beliefs we may have stemming from the common thought program that says if things don't run smoothly, you have done something wrong. Noticing what beliefs we are still carrying that are feedin...

Inspired by the phrase full of yourself , this episode explores the question, "If you're not full of yourself, who else and what else are you full of?" This episode is an invitation to explore how much self you are full of, and what are you ready to release that is not you? We are journeying through some terrain that may be unfamiliar, and as we are finding our new footing in this moment, many of...

Embodying our true selves. At this moment we are releasing, or turning on their heads, the old stories and narratives that have kept us sleeping. In this episode, podcast host Christine Pensa invites listeners to flip the story of Sleeping Beauty on its head, to re-imagine that the "prince" is actually your soul tenderly waking you up to embody more of your true frequency in this now moment. Why n...

In this episode host Christine Pensa focused on wholeness from the perspective of the new human— how the story of an organic olive opened her heart up to a deeper understanding of wholeness—and, how that simple organic olive can help us to understand our own deep capacity for self healing.
