    the embodied woman: fertility, birth, & the fashion industry

    in this episode of the village sessions, we explore the transformative journey of a woman’s body as it expands & evolves through maidenhood, motherhood, & beyond. michale, kori, & molly dive into the changes women experience—physically, emotionally, & psychologically—and how these choices shape the way we live, move, & dress.   we share insights from our own journeys, reflecting on the impact of introducing dynamic movement into our lives & how it has transformed not just our physical shape but also the clothes we choose to wear. we explore what creates “space” within the body, contrasting less favorable patterns like a tucked pelvis & “stuck” diaphragm with the freedom of width, length, & an open pelvic floor.   from discussions on diastasis recti & postpartum recovery to the relationship between the diaphragm, core, pelvic floor & the program were given through consumerism or media we hold a vision of women stepping into full embodiment—breathable, expansive & fully at home in their skin.   our hope is to inspire women to see the power of their choices, knowing they can rewrite their stories at any stage of life. the emotional, psychological, & physical decisions we make inform the way we shape ourselves & the way we show up in the world. take a seat with us for this vulnerble segment full of stories & heart.   get connected & begin your experience //   sign up for a bowspring class   follow us on instagram   join rooted families   join our pregnancy + birth course nagivating the curves

    your life is your prenatal

    in this episode of the village sessions, we explore the concept of “your life is your prenatal,” diving into how birth has been collectively decontextualized in the west as an isolated event rather than an integral part of the natural biological process for women. michale, kori & molly offer a radical perspective: what if preconception, pregnancy, and birth could be simple, intuitive & “drama-free?”   we discuss the choice points inherent in all of life, especially during the process of creation & share personal experiences of navigating these moments. by reframing birth as a healing and expansive piece of our lives women, we challenge the narrative that it requires the pieces we’re offered by conditioning, modern day media & the allopathic rhetoric.   we chose this topic to inspire women to welcome the energy of creation across all spheres of life, conception, pregnancy —allowing it to shape & expand them. how you create is representative of how you live. take a seat and join us for this thought-provoking conversation on birth, life, and the creative capacity within us all.   tune in for the youtube version of the episode   resources mentioned in this episode //   shelly marshall’s face sculpting course (use code VILLAGE for discount)--   bowspring + face sculpting instagram post   morning sun + movement challenge get connected & begin your experience //   sign up for a bowspring class   follow us on instagram   join rooted families   join our pregnancy + birth course nagivating the curves

    the biggest picture of lip & tongue tie: nutrition, energy, & environment

    in this first of a two-part series, we’re deep diving into the world of lip and tongue ties, exploring nutrition, bioenergetics, and the often-overlooked foundations behind oral restrictions and craniofacial growth. michale, kori, and molly discuss why food alone isn’t the complete answer to these developmental issues and how a broader perspective reveals the layers involved in the nutritional focus.   we contrast the perspectives of ray peat and weston a. price, examining how their work has both merged and diverged in understanding nourishment’s impact on the mouth and overall health. by asking what might be missing in weston a. price’s philosophies & observations of intact indigenous communities, we open the door to a more integrated approach to oral and craniofacial health. what really creates space in the mouth? through sharing our own experiences with food, the nutritional world, and the energetics that shape this space, we invite you to rethink nourishment as a whole. cozy up with us for this fresh conversation.     tune in for the youtube version of the episode   receive 10% off your order of kossma with the code KOSSMA10   sign up for a bowspring class   follow us on instagram   join rooted families   join our pregnancy + birth course nagivating the curves

    transformation isn't free

    in this episode of the village sessions, michale, kori & molly engage in a deep conversation about value systems, belief systems & how they shape the way we invest our time and energy. we reflect on what we bring into our families & how those actions mirror our core values.    we explore the connection between our values & the outcomes we seek. what are we truly willing to invest to achieve the results we desire? how do our daily choices align with our long-term vision? additionally, we get into the decontextualization of wisdom systems in today’s society, where information-seeking has taken the place of embodied experiences. in a world with easy, quick access, we discuss the importance of being willing to undergo the transformative process rather than the alternative —  gathering information.   if you’ve ever questioned how your values influence your family, relationships, money belief systems & personal growth, this episode will inspire new ways of thinking about alignment, transformation, and the energy we invest in what matters most. get cozy with us for this powerful discussion on getting clear on your values & living in true alignment.    tune in for the youtube version of the episode   receive $15 off your first order of araza with the code VILLAGE   sign up for a bowspring class   follow us on instagram   join rooted families   save 50% on midline revolution until oct 31st

    children are our mirrors

    in this episode of The Village Sessions, Michale, Kori, & Molly explore the power of mirroring and how our internal state shapes our external reality. We lay the foundation of how staying in rapport with our relationships and environment impacts the energy we hold & the energy we need to sustain change.   Motherhood was designed to expand us—it’s written into our physiological blueprint. Yet, real vitality & sustainable support come from embracing that expansion, not from collapsing into victimhood. We’ll also discuss how to calibrate family dynamics in alignment with the ecology of the whole. Get cozy with us for this foundational episode on self-responsibility, the energetics of mirroring & how to cultivate space for growth and vitality.   come join us for our video version of our village sessions over on youtube: www.youtube.com/@thevillagesessions   receive $15 off your order of frtil with the code VILLAGE—   https://frtil.co/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAabcFtXoOdJpisCedT2fOvWHhf3hWG6d6WDirWg0a5ZP_D71U-cnazmqoWA_aem_WoRWryTK5Tj3pPNIJ8fToQ   sign up for a bowspring class—   https://app.punchpass.com/org/12247/classes   follow us on instagram—   https://www.instagram.com/villagesessionspodcast/
