The Wild Return

SARAH SCHOTT

Welcome to The Wild Return, a podcast where we explore womanhood as power, motherhood as alchemy, and the journey of remembering who we really are and coming home to our true nature.  In this space, women gather to tune in and reconnect with how our womb and body, motherhood journey, and Nature, are all gateways to our soul, healing, wholeness and power, so that we can create and lead fulfilling, aligned lives, be the mom our kids need, and do our own unique part to create planetary change and collective healing. Hosted by Sarah Schott, whose own winding path back to herself involved leaving behind a career in medicine for the health and fitness world before becoming a mother and experiencing her own personal reckoning. She spent much of her life in fear of her body after losing her grandmother to ovarian cancer, being on the Pill for over a decade, and experiencing an eating disorder. It was the combination of her past experiences, conviction to heal herself, passion for natural and holistic health, and becoming a mother that all culminated to bring her here, firmly planted in her calling. Expect thought-provoking conversations, courageous shares and learnings from Sarah’s own story, as well as practices and tools to support you in connecting more deeply with yourself – body, mind, heart, and spirit.  Because what the world needs now is wildly, deeply rooted mothers who remember exactly who they are.

    006 - Summer Energy: Tending Your Inner Fire

    In this episode, we’ll explore the energies of summer as peak vitality, abundance, pleasure, and presence, inviting us to receive, savor, and shine.  I talk about summer’s long days, sensory richness, and the paradox of bustling “doing” energy held by steady “being,” then explain why mothers often struggle to access summer medicine: carrying the mental load as the manager of it all, the cultural myth of the selfless/sexless mother, and “maternal numbing” from chronic sensory overload that dulls both overwhelm and joy.  I offer some simple practices to reconnect—sunlight, water as a sensory reset, play (especially with kids), and flowers as beauty cues. Then I introduces Radiant Mama Ritual, a one-time one-hour session to co-create a doable, customized daily sacred practice aligned with a mother’s season, needs, and sensory preferences.  You’ll will hear about: seasonal wisdom and summer energy; motherhood barriers to pleasure/aliveness; sensory-based practices with sun, water, and flowers; and details on Radiant Mama Ritual and how to sign up early. 🖤 Connect with me on Instagram @sarah.schott & @thewildreturnpodcast or email at rootandrise.life@gmail.com 🖤 Download your free Everyday Rituals guide to transform your daily life and bring the sacred into the everyday moments and alchemize your routines into acts of devotion to your one wild beautiful life.  🖤Visit my website to explore the ways we might work together  PS -- about this gorgeous music: it's the song: “What My Heart is Looking For” by Bonner Black from Soundstripe.com

    002 - Late Winter Wisdom + Spring Equinox Circle Announcement

    In this episode, we reflect on living in connection with seasonal rhythms as a framework for personal growth, noting how modern life can disconnect humans from nature and contribute to burnout, hormonal chaos, emotional overwhelm, and feeling untethered. Sarah also discusses women’s layered seasonality—yearly seasons, menstrual and lunar rhythms, and life phases (maiden, mother, maga, crone). The episode focuses on late winter and Imbolc as a transition marked by rest, introspection, the fertile void, and quiet creative potential, with “start/stop” energy that invites nourishment and capacity-building before spring.  She shares practical ways to align with this season—mindful rest, following curiosity and creativity, deep nourishment, spring cleaning/decluttering, and time in nature—plus journal prompts about aliveness, devotion, support, readiness for action, and what needs releasing.  Sarah announces a virtual Spring Equinox circle, “From the Wellspring,” on Sunday, March 22 at 2:00 PM Eastern, which will be interwoven with ritual, including a release practice, a guided journey into one’s inner wellspring, and creating a nature mandala. 🖤 Sign up for "From the Wellspring" here! 🖤 Connect with me on Instagram @sarah.schott & @thewildreturnpodcast or email at rootandrise.life@gmail.com 🖤 Download your free Everyday Rituals guide to transform your daily life and bring the sacred into the everyday moments and alchemize your routines into acts of devotion to your one wild beautiful life.  🖤Visit my website to explore the ways we might work together  PS -- about this gorgeous music: it's the song: “What My Heart is Looking For” by Bonner Black from Soundstripe.com
