    Ep 73 - Feeling a Bit Weird? Good! Why Your Unique Ideas Matter (A Mossvale Story of Self-Belief)

    There comes a moment on any creative path where something begins to stir  A little idea. A pull. A world, a vision, a way of being that doesn’t quite make logical sense, but won’t leave you alone. In this deeply personal episode, I’m sharing the story behind Mossvale, how it came to life, why creating it felt vulnerable, and what it really takes to follow something you can’t fully explain (yet). We explore self-belief beyond the clichés, the kind that asks you to trust yourself before you have proof, to honour your creative instincts, and to embrace the parts of you that feel a little different, maybe a little strange or a little “too much.” Because often, those are the very things you’re here to bring into the world. This episode is a reminder that:  ✨ You don’t need the full vision to begin  ✨ You are allowed to create what calls to you  ✨ Your uniqueness is not something to hide, it’s your magic Alongside this, I’ll take you into Mossvale with a gentle, folklore-inspired story of Star and The Weeping Well.  A tale of courage, creativity, and choosing your truth even when it isn’t understood. So if you’ve been doubting yourself, holding back, or questioning whether your ideas are “too weird”, this one is for you. ✨ Curious about Mossvale?  Start with your free First Glimpse, a small doorway into the world. 🕯️ Or experience it through scent  Explore my Wild Goddess candles, each with its own story. ✨ Love the podcast?  Follow, share, or leave a review, it means more than you know. 📲 Find me on Instagram  @the.wildgoddess

    Ep 70 - Self-Development vs Self-Nurturing: A Mythic Path Back to Ourselves

    In a world that constantly encourages us to improve, optimise, and become “better,” I’ve found myself asking a quieter question lately…  What if the real path isn’t self-development, but self-nurturing? In this episode, I’m exploring the gentle but powerful difference between self-development and self-nurturing through the lens of myth, folklore, seasonal living, earth-based rituals, and goddess connection. I share my own journey, from consuming traditional self-growth content to finding a deeper sense of understanding through story, land, and ancient wisdom. Because somewhere along the way, I stopped asking “how do I fix myself?” and started asking “how do I tend to myself?” We also talk about nuance, something I feel is deeply missing in modern conversations about growth.  The truth is, we are complex beings.  We can want to be kind and still make mistakes.  We can grow without demanding perfection from ourselves or others. Through myth and folklore, I’ve come to see that even the gods were layered and flawed!  Story reminds us that contradiction is human, and that growth is rarely simple or linear. This episode is a soft, reflective exploration of:  self-nurturing vs self-development, human nuance, mythology as a mirror, seasonal living, and learning to see ourselves with more compassion. Not as problems to be fixed.  But as stories still unfolding. ✨ Curious about Mossvale?  Start with your free First Glimpse, a small doorway into the world. 🕯️ Or experience it through scent  Explore my Wild Goddess candles, each with its own story. ✨ Love the podcast?  Follow, share, or leave a review, it means more than you know. 📲 Find me on Instagram  @the.wildgoddess

    Ep 69 -The Goddess Codes: Friday the 13th — You Are the 13th

    Friday the 13th has long been wrapped in superstition, fear, and shadow.  But what if it was never unlucky at all? In this episode, we step beyond horror stories and into history, mythology, and the forgotten codes of the feminine. This episode explores the true roots of Friday as the day of the Goddess - Frigg, Freyja, Venus, and the sacred meaning of the number 13 as a reflection of lunar cycles, feminine rhythms, and wholeness. Together, we unravel how the sacred feminine was slowly reframed as dangerous, irrational, and “unlucky”… and how those narratives still echo in the way women silence their intuition, shrink their power, and distrust their depth. This is not an episode about superstition.  It is about sovereignty. Inside this audio:  • The historical roots of Friday as Goddess Day  • The sacred symbolism of the number 13 and the lunar cycle  • How cultural shifts and fear reshaped feminine power  • The emotional inheritance women still carry today  • Gentle reclamation rituals to embody your wholeness   This is your invitation to remember.  To reclaim.  To sit in the circle as the 13th, whole, cyclical, intuitive, and powerful. Because Friday the 13th was never a curse.  It was a code. ✨ Curious about Mossvale?  Start with your free First Glimpse, a small doorway into the world. 🕯️ Or experience it through scent  Explore my Wild Goddess candles, each with its own story. ✨ Love the podcast?  Follow, share, or leave a review, it means more than you know. 📲 Find me on Instagram  @the.wildgoddess

    Ep 66 - The Twelve Months: A Winter Folktale for January

    January often arrives heavy with expectation, urging us to move faster, decide more, become something new. But winter has never worked that way. In this opening episode of 2026, I begin not with resolutions or reflection prompts, but with an old folktale. The Twelve Months is a traditional Eastern European winter story, retold from The Telling of the Seasons, in which a young girl is sent into the frozen forest on an impossible task. There, she encounters the twelve months of the year gathered around a fire, led by Old Mother January, keeper of winter’s law and time’s turning. What follows is a story about humility, patience, seasonal wisdom, and the quiet power of asking, rather than demanding, life to unfold. After the story, I reflect on what this tale teaches us about January, modern life, and the pressure to rush growth before its time. This episode is an invitation to move gently into the new year, to trust your winter pace, and to remember that rest, waiting, and listening are not failures — they are sacred practices. This is an episode for anyone who feels out of step with “new year, new you” culture, and longs for a slower, more honest beginning. Light the fire.  Winter knows what it’s doing.
