My aim is  connect  women with each other and themselves and create a community that shares sage advice, and guidance and inspiration for their own heroine's journey and  so never shall another rural woman experience  feeling isolated and alone. I will share my story, and tools I have learned as well as chat with beautiful guests to learn how nuanced each others lives are and how to face the unique challenges that living in the rural landscape and being a women brings.  This space is for women who have their roots in the soil, and are rising in the soul. Whether you are in the desert, on acreage or just  have country in the blood, come join me as we discuss everything from farming to friendships, divorce, dating, rural business, children , spirituality  and homesteading life, nothing will be off topic for this raw, authentic and rustic  space for women to connect and feel a part of a community to nourish body mind and soul. .  Look forward to having you in this space where you are welcome, safe, loved and enough just as you are  Sasha x

    Ep. 7 Becoming HER - ReWriting your Heroine Story

    What if the hardest chapters of your life weren’t meant to break you, but to reveal the heroine within you? In this episode, I share a raw and real reflection on what it means to rewrite your story — not by denying what happened, but by reclaiming the meaning you give it. We talk about the difference between being victimised and living as a victim, and how shifting your perspective can transform your life from the inside out. Drawing on myth, Christ-consciousness, and my own healing journey, I explore how practices like rewriting your story on paper, sending love to your past antagonists, and simple daily rituals of release can move you out of victimhood and into your heroine energy. This is for every woman who has ever felt silenced, stuck, or small — and is ready to become the author of her own legacy. In this episode, you’ll hear: Why reframing your story is an act of liberationHow ancient wisdom and Christ teachings mirror our own journeysA simple practice to release old hurts through compassion and forgivenessWhy sending love — even when it’s hard — can keep your heart clearAn invitation to step fully into your heroine energy✨ You are not broken. You are becoming.

    EP. 4 Calm your farm - small steps from surviving to thriving.

    "Calm Your Farm – From Surviving to Thriving": In this episode, the host shares a personal journey from burnout and survival mode to peace, presence, and personal power. The episode begins with a life update, highlighting the importance of community and the host's gratitude for the support received during a challenging time. The host emphasizes the significance of strengthening one's core ( both physical and metaphorical)  and appreciating the community. The main focus of the episode is on understanding trauma, particularly during PTSD Awareness Month. The host explains that trauma can be both visible and invisible, and even small "micro-traumas" can have a lasting impact. The episode discusses how unprocessed trauma can manifest as stress, burnout, anxiety, and chronic illness, and recommends the book "The Body Keeps the Score" by Bessel van der Kolk. The host delves into the concept of "Rushing Woman Syndrome," coined by Dr. Libby Weaver, and shares personal experiences of burnout and codependency. The episode explores the body's trauma responses, including fight, flight, freeze, and fawn, and the impact of gaslighting on one's needs and self-worth. The shift from survival to calm is highlighted, with meditation being the key practice that helped the host begin healing. The episode encourages listeners to start small, with mindfulness and meditation, and recommends Eckhart Tolle's book "The Power of Now." The host shares insights on observing thoughts, understanding triggers, and embracing the present moment. The episode concludes with an invitation to listeners to join the host's coaching and women's circles, and to register for upcoming courses and events.

    LEGACY - MORE THAN THE LAND

    This episode explores the concept of legacy, urging a shift in perspective from material inheritance to a leading future generations  by living a life of authenticity and fulfillment. Here are the key themes: Redefining Legacy: Traditionally, succession planning in rural Australia focuses on passing down land and assets. The author initially sought to leave cattle stations for their children but later realized that material inheritance may not align with their true needs or desires.The Burden of Inherited Land: Many farmers face immense pressure to maintain family farms, leading to financial struggles, stress, high suicide rates, and strained relationships. .Parenting and Influence: The greatest legacy isn’t wealth or land, but children themselves. Parents serve as role models, and children learn by observing actions rather than listening to instructions. The importance of raising children with authenticity and presence is emphasized.Personal Growth and Reflection: A profound realization occurred during a personal development workshop, where participants were asked to reflect on life regrets. The most resonant regret was “not living a life true to oneself”, reinforcing the importance of designing a life aligned with personal values.Lessons from Family: The author reflects on their hardworking father, whose later years were filled with joy from pursuing personal passions. His legacy wasn’t just his work ethic but his ability to embrace happiness in his own way.Living Authentically: The document encourages living a life of one’s own design instead of following societal or familial expectations. Legacy isn’t about land or possessions—it’s about living truthfully and inspiring future generations to do the same.The final message is that you are the legacy—not the things you own or leave behind, but the way you live, love, and inspire others. ng for?
