    Sacred Pathways: Ayahuasca, Buddhism, and the Awakening of The Earth Priestess

    This conversation delves into the transformative power of Ayahuasca within the context of Buddhist wisdom, exploring the feminine expression of liberation, spiritual awakening, and Earth connection through Tara—the goddess of compassion, wisdom, and protection... basically, The Infinite herself ♡ Spring Washam is a visionary leader and healer who seamlessly integrates Buddhist teachings with indigenous wisdom to foster both personal and collective liberation. I first met her at Spirit Rock Meditation Center, where she taught Metta (a practice that dissolves barriers of judgment and fear, fostering joy, kindness, and compassion). In 2015, I followed her to Peru, having participated in just one previous ceremony in Santa Rosa, California. Little did I know, I was in for a profound surprise—a deep spiritual immersion and a powerful meeting with my Deep Self. I was so glad to connect with Spring 10 years later on this episode for some integration and connection.

    Empowering Feminine Wisdom with Jalaja Bonheim

    It was such a pleasure and an honour to have this conversation with one of my spiritual teachers and the author of some of my favourite books. She is a modern-day priestess, author, feminist, and a wise and deeply skilled leader in the art of gathering women in circle. Long before women’s circles became part of the mainstream conversation, she was helping to revive and reimagine these traditions in ways that were both psychologically grounded and spiritually meaningful. In addition to writing the underground classic Aphrodite’s Daughters and many other powerful books, she is also known for her peacebuilding work, travelling to the Middle East to facilitate healing dialogues and women’s circles that brought together Jewish and Palestinian women in the midst of conflict. Her bridged psychology, spirituality, feminism, and community in ways that feel as relevant today as ever!

    Women as Storytellers and Preservers of Wisdom with Jessica Austin

    Jessica Austin was a beloved doula, storyteller, community-builder, and mother whose wisdom continues to touch countless lives. At the time of this recording, she was living with metastatic cancer while raising her one-year-old child with extraordinary courage, authenticity, and grace. If you are moved by Jessica's sharing, you may also wish to listen to If I'm Not Here To Tell You, a podcast she created so her child could always hear her stories in her own voice. In this conversation, Jessica speaks about her decision to share it publicly as an offering to the wider community—a testament to the power of learning through real stories that hold both the beauty and heartbreak of being human. In this episode, we explore women as storytellers and the importance of sharing birth and life experiences as collective wisdom. Jessica reflects on:~ Birth as a wild, instinctual, mammalian process (5 mins)~ Birth as a communal experience and how it became medicalized and hidden behind closed doors (8 mins)~ The ways scientific knowledge has often eclipsed community wisdom and storytelling (10 mins)~ Why our stories matter, and how sharing them can become part of our legacy (20 mins)~ The profound truth that your story matters (40 mins) This conversation remains a beautiful reminder of Jessica's gift: her ability to speak honestly about life, death, motherhood, and what it means to leave something meaningful behind.

    Returning Home to Self, Earth and Spirit: Wild with inner wealth with Kate Leiper

    Kate Leiper's body of work is anchored in actively exploring feminine depth, self-intimacy and devotion, catalysed by motherhood and sustained by embodied experiences of returning home to self, earth and spirit. Through meeting and honouring grief and loss stored in the body, Kate guides mothers and nurturers into deeper relationship with personal expressions of sensuality and creativity; increasing capacity for building and sustaining wildly prosperous and pleasure-filled lives. Bridging the realms of psychology and spirituality through the artful practice of feminine embodiment, Kate’s ‘unsMothered’ principles and Diamond Mother Archetype framework are underpinned by a Graduate Degree in Drama & Education, a Master of Counselling & Psychotherapy, internationally recognised Feminine Embodiment Coaching Certification and current teachings around somatics and trauma healing. Holding great reverence for the fumbling, messy process of personal unravelling within a larger committment to dismantling internalised patriarchal indoctrination, Kate is committed to life-long inquiry and reclamation of bodily safety, consent, self-sovereignty, and social justice for those identifying as women, specifically in the domains of sex, birth and mothering.

    Re-imagining the World with the Primordial Power of Eros with Kate Joyner

    After a lifetime of devotion to the ways of Mystery, Earth, Soul and Eros, her extraordinary path of Feminine Initiation has brought her to the edge of the long lost mysteries of the wild. Here Kate serves as a guide to the mysteries of Soul by facilitating the remembrance of the Lost Arts of the Feminine. Our modern culture has banished and demonised the primordial power held within our Feminine Eros and its creative expression. We are at a time on the planet where this reclamation is not only possible, but necessary. Kate believes that our creative life force energy, once fully embodied, is the revolutionary force that will change the world. She is devoted to creating alchemical journeys that catalyze the unfurling of the tender and powerful essence of each soul to come forth in service of re-imagining a culture rooted in true love and mythical wildness. At essence, Kate is an Activist, Artist and Alchemist of Eros. She believes the reclamation of our feminine eros – our sexual and creative life force – IS the catalyst for our imminent cultural renaissance. She has created The Dancing Serpent Mystery School as a temple for this revolution of individual and collective awakening. In this episode, we discuss: ~Where is our Holy Yes: How every desire is ushering ourselves closer to ourselves. ~Coming into relationship from a place of deep fulfillment. ~Feeding and tending the transpersonal in relationship.
