Episode 55 - Seasons of Growth 07.04.2026

Welcome back to a new season and new stories, some of my own and some new interviews coming soon from women with amazing stories. Challenges bring tremendous growth, and this is what I am sharing in this episode as I venture back into podcasting and storytelling. Thank you for listening!

Episode 54 - Coping With Missing Someone 21.04.2025

I had some thoughts I wanted to share about how it’s going with my husband being gone so much, and how I work through the hard. It never gets easier seemingly, but there are things I am doing that I work on to help improve myself and keep myself busy in this season. It’s not necessarily balanced, or perfect, but it’s simply living and finding ways to make that matter the most. Perhaps this is rela...

Episode 53 - Persevering 23.02.2025

Sharing an experience I had during challenges I’ve been navigating the last three years, in order to support those currently struggling through challenges. There is hope, when we persevere. There is something on the other side of that so much greater.

Episode 52- Getting Back Into It 10.02.2025

Coming to you with some thoughts to help you through hard things for my first Wise Wakeful Women episode of 2025. As I go through a transition with my family, I felt called to share my thoughts with you and remind you that you can get through the hard things. We are all better on the other side of them. Stay tuned for more episodes this year, including more incredible women sharing stories. If thi...

My Childhood: Storytime with Natalie Part 1 11.11.2024

Take a moment with me to hear about my childhood in a nutshell-my experiences of public school, becoming homeschooled and how that positively impacted me, learning to observe the world around me even beyond the physical into the spiritual and experiencing God’s truth as a child. This laid the foundation for my life, my path, and my deep rooted knowing that Christ is right there ready to work with...

Abortion Is Not Birth Control 03.11.2024

With abortion being on the forefront right now in political concerns/discussions, I felt that it was time to share a very vulnerable and important part of my story and relationship to this topic. I don’t appreciate people lying about the fact that we are treating babies and women as commodities and objects through abortion and its use as birth control for women who are in loving relationships but...

Hypocrisy, Thinking Speech, Fertility Awareness 27.10.2024

Maintaining my promise to publish an episode every week for the rest of 2024, I come to you with an episode of ramblings around thinking before we speak, self reflection, and my own experiences with fertility awareness and developing the capacity to understand my own body and reproductive system. I hope this inspires one or more of you to come and share your own thoughts and experiences with any o...

A Bit of a Ramble 20.10.2024

It’s been awhile, so I wanted to show up to share some thoughts and a lesson or two I’ve learned lately. I am so thankful for the opportunities to grow and to share and hear what others have to say too. Politics and social media take up way too much time, when if we really stop and think about it, there are many other things more relevant to ours and our loved ones lives that actually, in the end,...

God Is In the Entire Universe-Rant Part 1 23.06.2024

This week I felt called to speak on God’s presence in the entire universe, including the zodiac and other parts of human exploration that many Christians deem devilish. There is more I would like to address here in future episodes, but this is a part of a series that I think of as opening one’s heart to true Christ-ianity in the fullest sense, stepping outside of modern day materialism and church...

Wild Pregnancy, Freebirth, Grief, and Trust with Alex Cefalu 16.06.2024

Join me in getting to know Alex Cefalu, an expecting mother who is willing to speak on the hard things, and who found herself shifting in thought in so many ways during COVID. She shares her story of how she decided to have a wild pregancy and free birth with her first child; of her loss and grief; and the amazing concept that there is even meant to be mystery in death. I found her story and wisdo...

Homeschooling Endeavors As A Pillar of Hope 26.05.2024

Join me for a solo episode discussing what is happening in education and how we might make a change.

Life Is Not Black & White, Christ In the Etheric, Bad At Sales: A Rant 14.04.2024

This episode was to share and speak my truth whilst processing thoughts in order to get closer to my truth…thus, a rant. If you are interested in my rants this may be up your alley-if they annoy you, please skip! Also let’s all stop gaslighting women. Email wisewakefulwomen@gmail.com to set up an interview. This is a platform for your rants and stories!

Mom, Wife, CEO-How Do You Balance This? with Ashlee Cervantas Thomas 25.02.2024

Ashlee is an inspiring woman who works in the world of private security, who is the CEO of a very successful private security company, is very grounded and sure of herself, and has a light in her that I was so moved by in our meeting. She is passionate about what she does-motherhood, being married to the love of her life, leading a team of individuals who are good at what they do, and providing a...

How Sex Work Supports Sex Trafficking 19.02.2024

In this episode I share my thoughts on pornography and sex work supporting the sex trafficking industry, and how Ahrimanic influence plays into what is going on the internet and otherwise. There is no justification for a job that can bring harm to our future young, and these jobs certainly are.

Intentions for 2024 11.01.2024

I’m back with my first podcast episode for 2024! I felt called to speak so I am sharing some thoughts I have had recently on what work is important, my business plans for this year, and how important it is for people to speak up and to stand up for themselves. Please join me on my podcast sometime and share a story or two, or a perspective that is uniquely yours. I’m excited for this podcast and c...

Showing Up, Working Through Imposter Syndrome & Jealousy 09.12.2023

It’s been a few weeks since I released an episode and I realized I have this expectation on how many interviews I should be doing versus solo episodes. But then I decided I needed to let that go, stop holding myself back, and just share. Working through jealousy and imposter syndrome, and reflecting on how showing up will help growth whereas waiting around won’t call the women here who are meant t...

Beginner Energy 05.11.2023

I felt called to address what it looks like to get an idea for the first time, to be a beginner, and how every human being carries this to some degree. The tendency to being dogmatic and unfree in the beginning of something is very strong for human beings and there are reasons for that. I have been reflecting on this in recent years with the rise in homeschooling, people speaking on Christianity,...

Intuition In Motherhood: Bettering the Postpartum Experience 29.10.2023

By giving over our intuition in motherhood to the medical industry, we have allowed ourselves to get further and further away from joy and peace in parenting and raising babies. Every time we choose convenience over our innate sense we step further away from what both we as a mother and our baby needs. Replacing our loving arms with a SNOO, our sense of life with an Owelette sock, and our breast w...

Christ, Freedom, Overcoming Anxiety 22.10.2023

Sharing some thoughts that have been on my mind and heart, and taking action in sharing an episode since it’s been a few weeks. I appreciate your listens, your shares, support, and feedback, and I hope you found something of value here.

Episode 36 - Thoughts That Limit Us 17.09.2023

I have been becoming more aware of the thoughts that still hold me back from my full potential. This episode is a reflection on some of these and how I am not yet fully trusting God. Awareness is a wonderful first step for change and I am both humbled and encouraged. To interview for this podcast please email wisewakefulwomen@gmail.com . To explore healthshare options for your family, visit www.cr...

Is Following Your Heart Not Godly? 03.09.2023

My thoughts on the idea that “following your heart” is leading to marriages ending, genders changing, and that it’s the devil’s impulse. I break down my thoughts on what it means to connect with God, how we have to actually do the work beyond just reading the Bible, and that we are not physical images of God because God is not a Man. Why is spiritual science relevant, and important for modern Chri...

Episode 34 - Introduction to the 12 Senses 20.08.2023

I wanted to share a beginning intro to the Twelve Senses of the human being, to support greater insight into ourselves and our lives by deepening our relationship to all the layers that make us human. Thanks to you, I am now an ambassador for Crossway Connect, a Christian faith-based health share for singles, couples, and families to get the health coverage they need and have more options than ins...

Journey Away From Mob To Self 06.08.2023

A ramble on my thoughts about the mob versus self work/civil disobedience, and why I think one is more important and effective than the other. Thank you for listening, and sharing if you have found value!

Struggle and The Matrix Propaganda 23.07.2023

Through different decisions and experiencing what felt like betrayal, I was led to taking a big leap in my life a year ago that has continued to put stress on me and my family as we work our way towards a better future. Learning to trust and also feeling grateful for the support I have received are both things that were sprinkled throughout this entire time. On another note, The Matrix as more tha...

When Free Birth Is Your Star with Kelsey Van Fleet 02.07.2023

When I sat down with Kelsey to hear her stories of entrepenurial adventure, birth, and motherhood, nothing prepared me for this incredible, heart wrenching story she has to tell. At only 20 years old she went from imagining a C-section for herself to complete joy in the thought of having her baby with only herself and her husband present. Against all odds and even a few attempts at medical kidnapp...
