Matriarchal Medicine

Throughout this season of Matriarchal Medicine , we’ve talked a lot about community — sisterhood, collaboration, and the village so many women are longing for as mothers and entrepreneurs. But in this finale, Audrey goes to the place most conversations avoid: the underbelly of the village . The subtle sabotage. The quiet competition. The relationships that smile on the surface but can’t actually h...

In this conversation, Audrey sits down with one of the most requested women in her community: Victoria Goyre , a woman whose entire life has been marked by initiations — birth, death, motherhood, shamanic apprenticeship, Western medicine, scar tissue remediation, and two years of GAPS that cracked open the doors to her intuition and lineage.

Natalie reflects on motherhood as apprenticeship — a lifelong initiation that teaches us presence, patience, and the slow burn of creative...

Together you ex...
