    S.1 E.8 Gabrielle Heron "The Encouraging Priestess on Marrying Yourself"

    On today's show we get to chat with Gabrielle Heron. She is a performance artist and ceremonialist known as The Encouraging Priestess. Through her self-marriage project, she's guided nearly 2,000 people to marry themselves. She lovingly messes with wedding tropes, re-wiring how identity and sovereignty are claimed. She invites you to marry yourself, your projects and other people too. She gives us the backstory on how Marrying Oneself has become an important part of her work, what Self Marriage is, and the rituals she creates to support this deep experience. Gabrielle shares anecdotes of her years doing this work, the vows she offers for folks to consider and how this can not only help you be a better lover of self, but also to those you are in relationship with. We weave in news of the upcoming The Goddess Party performance where audience members will be invited to join in the big wedding to marry oneself. Stay tuned for Gabrielle's forthcoming Chapbook and full manual on how to perform this monumental ritual for yourself.

    Today we get to chat with Leah Watkins, the visionary behind FØLK Refillery & Supply, a sanctuary for zero-waste shopping in Kingston's historic Stockade District. Driven by a love for the planet and her community, Leah has transformed her passion into a hub for sustainable, local, and artisanal goods.

    S.1 E.6 Christie Jordan Barron "Practicing Living and Dying"

    Today on the show we are joined by Christie Jordan Barron, an educator, mother, mover, maker, and somatic experiencing practitioner based in the Hudson Valley. Christie believes deeply in our essential need for connection to our own hearts, to nature, and to each other. She is dedicated to holding space for people to sense into and stay curious about the various parts and pieces that make us all tenderly human.  Our conversation weaves through Christie's work, lived experiences and the deep wisdom she's landed on along the way. We learn about her work in the practice of dying and how that supports us through deaths of all types and the grief that often accompanies loss. She shares insight into community's role with grief and how that helps us in moving away from the expert paradigm. Her work as an educator has expanded to include sexual education, supporting youth navigating their relationship to their changing bodies and their autonomy. We talk about her role as mother and the complexities of what that surfaced for her. Our parenting conversation leads us to explore the balance between structure and freedom (masculine and feminine), and we spend some time talking about the challenges of navigating conflict and how to hold one accountable for their actions. Let us know what out conversation brings up for you!

    S.1 E.5 Full Moon Reflections with Jennifer and Theresa

    It's time for us to pause and reflect on our most recent conversations and honor the Full Moon Full. Yes, we're still talking about the "F" word, "feminine." Is using it helping to bring some healing to the archetype? Ultimately what we're curious about is bringing balance to the masculine and feminine which begins with reflection and curiosity, so that's what we're committed to. How does the role of the mother relate to the feminine and how are the distinctions helpful? We reflect upon our inclusion of the male experience and how that also feels important. We conclude with a little Full Moon reflection and commitments to ourselves in our Full Moon rituals.  Like, Subscribe!  Watch us on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@dancingwithwaterpodcast  Find us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dancingwithwaterpodcast/  Support us at Patreon https://www.patreon.com/dancingwithwater  Find archive conversation from I want what SHE has https://iwantwhatshehas.org/  Learn more about Theresa and her offerings at https://www.anahatakingston.com/  Learn more about Jennifer and her offerings at https://www.cosmicmotherlove.com/

    S.1 E.4 Duncan Rich "Men's Spaces and Modern Masculinity"

    Today we are joined by Duncan Rich, a father, a husband, an artist, a facilitator of somatic men's work, and a co-founder of MELD, a men's wellness company. Duncan shares some personal background and what brought him to working with men and holding space for them. He provides insight into the importance of men's spaces and having male voices in wellness spaces. Together we explore some of the deeper questions and challenges men face today - how to reach men who have been culturally shaped to disconnect from their emotions, what the manosphere is and how it's being co-opted by a wounded masculine archetype, the challenges of defining masculinity, navigating aspirational masculinity, and reclaiming the Noble Father.  You can learn more about Duncan and the work of MELD here: https://meld.community/  We referred to the writing of Elayne Kalilia, https://elaynekalila.substack.com/p/what-happens-when-the-world-is-fatherless  Like, Subscribe!  Watch us on Youtube / @dancingwithwaterpodcast  Find us on Instagram / dancingwithwaterpodcast  Support us at Patreon / dancingwithwater  Find archive conversation from I want what SHE has https://iwantwhatshehas.org/  Learn more about Theresa and her offerings at https://www.anahatakingston.com/  Learn more about Jennifer and her offerings at https://www.cosmicmotherlove.com/

    S.1 E.3 Dancing With Water - Perdita Finn "Mothers of Magic"

    Perdita Finn is the co-founder, with her husband Clark Strand, of the feral fellowship The Way of the Rose, which inspired their book The Way of the Rose: The Radical Path of the Divine Feminine Hidden in the Rosary. They are currently at work on their next book together Circles Not Lines: Spiritual Community Beyond Patriarchy.  To find out more about her devotion to “ecology not theology” visit wayoftherose.org In addition to extensive study with Zen masters, priests, spirit workers, and healers, she apprenticed with the psychic Susan Saxman, with whom she wrote The Reluctant Psychic. Perdita Finn now teaches popular workshops on Getting to Know the Dead. Participants are empowered to activate the miracles in their own lives with the help of their ancestors and recover their own intuitive magic. Her book Take Back the Magic: Conversations with the Unseen World is an intimate journey through her recovery of these lost ways. She speaks widely on how to collaborate with those on the other side, on the urgent necessity of a new romantic animism, and on the sobriety that emerges when we claim the long story of our souls. Her next book is Mothers of Magic: Summoning the Wisdom of Our Ancestors, to be released on May 5th, 2026. Perdita begins by talking about the idea of redefining Mothering beyond gender, something that feels so important in today's world where Mothering has been sidelined by the patriarchy. She offers some strong guidance to men about the role of Grandmothers which helps us move towards collective Mothering. So much of Perdita's work and book centers on a calling upon the dead. As such we get to hear how this connects with Mothering, how to speak with the dead, and viewing our worries or fretting as an act of prayer calling out for help from the unseen.  You can connect with all of Perdita's work at https://takebackthemagic.com/ Like, Subscribe!  Watch us on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@dancingwithwaterpodcast Find us on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/dancingwithwaterpodcast Support us at Patreon https://www.patreon.com/dancingwithwater Find archive conversation from I want what SHE has https://iwantwhatshehas.org/  Learn more about Theresa and her offerings at https://www.anahatakingston.com/  Learn more about Jennifer and her offerings at https://www.cosmicmotherlove.com/

So how does gender play a role in all of this? Let us know your thoughts in this ongoing collaborative conversation.  Dr. Svehla will be in the Hudson Valley next week as a part of Kelli Scar's Lesser Mysteries happenings.  She will be holding a talk about "The Problem of the Return" on April 29th, 2026 at the Art Society of Kingston.   Here's our previous conversation with Dr. Svehla from September 2025.  Like, Subscribe!  Find us on Instagram Find us on Youtube Support us at Patreon Find archive conversation from I want what SHE has   Learn more about Theresa and her offerings at https://www.anahatakingston.com/ Learn more about Jennifer and her offerings at https://www.cosmicmotherlove.com/
