9. Interview with Kate West on the transformational path from maiden to mother, weaving nature and song as medicine for the soul

This episode is an interview with Kate West, the co-founder of Nest & Bowl and Song Carriers ATX. Kate is mama to four growing humans, a song carrier and weaver of words. She’s facilitated hundreds of women’s circles and knows the magic initiated when women gather with intention. She studied holistic health and nutrition at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in 2005 and has been supporting women and families to recover wellness and balance in their lives for the past 18 years. She’s a birth doula, minister, and ceremonialist, offering safe space for her community to remember wholeness through direct communion with the sacredness of life. Kate is an Ayurvedic postpartum caregiver and chef, a homegrown herbalist and regenerative gardener, finding herself most at home when immersed in the natural world with her family and community. She facilitates ceremonies and song circles in the Austin area. In this episode we dive into the transformational transition from maiden to mother, how we can rewild ourselves and connect deeper with nature and the unseen world around us to help us live life in a more soulful way. We also talk about the power of story-telling and song as medicine, and we share our common dream of a world where we are re-villaging our lives and co-creating inclusive communities that support the health, vitality and growth of everyone.

8. Interview with Dr. Erica Matluck on motherhood as the ultimate path of devotion & the truly holistic approach to life, health & fertility

Tune in to listen to this rich conversation I had earlier this year with my dear friend, fellow Yogi and mama, Dr. Erica Matluck. She is a modern medicine woman and the creator of Seven Senses, a holistic framework for healing and transformation. Erica is trained as a Naturopathic doctor, family nurse practitioner, Reiki Master and multidisciplinary yoga instructor. Combining over a decade of experience working in conventional and alternative medicine, she brings a truly holistic lens to wellbeing, addressing the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of health. Ancient wisdom and Eastern philosophy thread through all of Erica’s work, which has been featured in Harpers Bazaar, Mindbodygreen, Well and Good, Vogue and Women’s Health. She is one of the humans I feel deeply inspired by who walks their talk and brings so much depth and beauty to this world. Erica’s Instagram, @experiencesevensenses, is an aesthetically and poetically rich online space full of musings on the intersection of health and spirituality, worthy of binge scrolling! In this conversion we discuss many things like the Maiden to Mother journey informed by the Chakras energy system and discovering what true devotion really means through the initiation to motherhood. We also touch on subjects like navigating this 3D world as multidimensional beings while weaving body+mind+heart+soul in the experience. We also touch on the full spectrum of holistic health, what it truly means to heal yourself and integrate all parts of you as you prepare for motherhood. Lastly, we also talk about what it looks like to be the stewards of the next generation as parents while also continuing to serve our Dharma in the world. Erica and her partner Paul lead some amazing retreats all around the world. Their next retreat will be in Ibiza in June 2023. To explore more of Erica’s work, her upcoming retreats and courses, and to connect with her directly, you can check out her website and Instagram: www.ExperienceSevenSenses.com @ExperienceSevenSenses
