Soul Yoga Podcast

I really enjoyed recording this episode. I am experiencing the culmination of my life lessons adding up and finally leading to insight. I’ve been sitting with a question from a Substack from since March: “Living online kills my feminine soul and my vibrant health. It could be the age difference because each generation is born better able to adapt; but all the articles about the feminine soul don’t...

As I study and flow to embody the divine feminine, I am noticing that SHE is asking us to let go - to release our tight-assed ways and expand. In this episode I share about areas of my life where I was rigid and self-repressed and how I began to move into expansion and release.

Repression has been the single greatest tool to undermine the thriving possibility of women. We have been taught to repress our anger, to repress our desire, to repress our arousal, to repress our expression, even our need for rest has been repressed. Join me as I chat about these "undesirable" or hysterical emotions. Get full access to Soul Musings, a Soul Yoga Retreat Newsletter at soulyogaretre...

My mom read one of the articles I wrote for our local city magazine and confronted me about the content because I used a bunch of astrology and pagan terms she's never heard of and never mentioned Jesus or God once. I cried after I got off the phone with her. I cried because I felt guilt that I didn't have this conversation with her sooner. Her biggest fear is that her grandson (my son) is going t...

I had the most incredible conversations this week with Lisa Sibbett (who writes The Auntie Bulletin), Sara Sadek (who writes Folkweaver), and Ganga Devi Braun (who writes The Living World). These conversations remind me again and again how important it is to embody the divine feminine; to be relational and not transactional. Join me as I chat about the challenges of finding housing, and the need f...

What I love about this episode are all the small glimpses into my life as a witch. And I don’t mean Hollywood’s green-skinned version. I mean witch as the woman who is in right relationship with all of creation - the moon, the stars, and the earth. I mention astrology and my birth chart. I mention the changing of the seasons and honouring the slowing of fall. One thing I remembered after I recorde...

Yesterday (April 5), I had a womb connection session with Madison from Ode to Birth Doula Collective. This is the doula group I am a part of and these ladies fill my heart. What I love about womb sessions is the opportunity to have myself reflected back to me. My dad passed Jan 1 this year. Grief has surprised me and pleased me in ways I have not heard anyone talk about before. It has painted the...

This story is copied over from my old website. While it’s no longer as fresh in my memory 4 years later, it’s still a fantastic story that I am enthralled with and want to read over and over. When I first wrote my birth story, my husband said all the facts made it sound mechanical. Reading it through several times, I have to agree with him, but I wanted to capture the details accurately. I absolut...

Most of the time I’ll be recording these podcast episodes from the tub. Recently, I’ve been enjoying a guided sacral chakra meditation. There always seems to be some piece of insight or wisdom that my womb leaves me with. The womb is the power centre for creation, creativity and feeling safe. The guided mediation offers this affirmation: I am a creative fluid being with unlimited power to create w...

Sharing vulnerably, matrix as womb, operating from talent and not desperation, and belonging as the antidote to the imposter syndrome. Get full access to Soul Musings, a Soul Yoga Retreat Newsletter at soulyogaretreat.substack.com/subscribe

So, what I don't usually talk about is my day job. You know the job that pays the bills, because it really doesn't feed my soul it feeds my family but not my soul and not the direction that I want my family to go. But it does afford me professional development courses. The course that I'm taking right now is over four weeks. It's called Leadership Foundations for Women in Construction. In our firs...

This audio started as what I thought was going to be an instagram post. Then, I realized how passionate I am about this topic of connection. It is my sole driving force. I talk about purposely looking to be distraction, and how meaningful connection to self comes before meaningful connections to others. I talk about my fear of failure that paralyzes me into inaction, and my intention to make more...

Tune in to listen to me rant and rave about my own family dynamics. No answers here, unfortunately, but let's join in conversation about the challenging aspects of life and come together in mutual love and care for one another instead of dissonance and division. Send...

Btw, I say I don't ruin the plot of the movie. That's incorrect. I completely give away the plot of the movie.  If the world would be completely destroyed in 6 months, would you live differently? Would your values change? Would you take more risks or take radical action or completely change your social-economic status? In this episode I talk about a plethora of ideas, coming back to the thought th...

Acknowledging my cycle of shrinking has been discouraging because now I see so many areas in my life where I still play small. In this episode, I discuss my journey of identifying the moments I shrink and how I'm practicing expansion. It's a scary journey but one that will move me out of blockages and towards my highest self.  Get full access to Soul Musings, a Soul Yoga Retreat Newsletter at soul...

What a difference a year can make! Join me on this episode as I discuss the loneliness of motherhood through covid, depressing Christmas seasons, and the difference a year (or two!) can make. My prayer is that, wherever you are, you are able to find the differences in your own life and sit in gratitude and hold space for yourself to celebrate how far you've come.  Get full access to Soul Musings,...

If you've wondering what I've been up to lately, here's the list: laptop took a coffee bath  mom was in hospital for 3 weeks cat dies decide not to plan another kid tell my boss I'm looking for other work It's been an intense month and a half of crying, grief, anger, frustration and consistent and steady letting go, releasing, purging of what no longer serves me. It seems like anything that I had...

OMG my heart is pounding so loudly in my chest right now. Writing a book and *potentially* hosting a retreat is a combination of the most feminine / in-the-flow and scary and elating and exciting things I've ever started.
