    Smut, fishing, and horseback! yee-haw.... y'all

    Somehow we managed to fit smut, fishing, horseback riding, Dolly Parton, generational healing, and the future of humanity into one conversation—and honestly, that feels about right. In this episode, Audra and Abby explore the powerful shifts unfolding this June and the growing invitation to look inward before looking outward. Together, they dive into the ripple effect of personal healing, the impact our individual growth has on the people around us, and why lasting change often starts much closer to home than we think. Along the way, they take a detour through the essence of Dolly Parton—celebrating how she's been able to shine her light bright, step into owning her choices and desires early in life and finding the ability to use her voice to spread the need for love and kindness in the world. Which then leads Audra and Abby to dive into the evolving story of women across generations and the changing landscape of masculine and feminine energy, the evolution of women's roles across generations, and the challenges many men face as they navigate emotional expression, healing, and redefining what strength truly looks like beyond outdated societal expectations. Expect deep dives, side tangents, a few laughs, some heartfelt moments, and plenty of wild wisdom. Because sometimes the biggest transformations begin with a little self-reflection, a lot of compassion, and a healthy dose of yee-haw energy. 🤠✨

    Booty Pops & Shemmies Cause the Cards Don’t Lie… Agüita!!

    This episode of Embracing the Wild is equal parts spiritual insight, chaotic laughter, and “the cards said what they said.” Abby Pagud and Audra Whatley dive into the differences between affirmation, oracle, tarot, and intuitive guidance decks—how they’re used, why people connect with them differently, and how these tools often mirror the truths we already feel rising beneath the surface. But this conversation goes deeper than cards. As the world continues to unmask itself, many people are waking up to what they no longer want to tolerate, where their energy has been leaking, and how their boundaries are evolving in real time. This episode explores discernment, energetic clarity, intuitive awareness, and the uncomfortable-but-liberating process of recognizing what no longer aligns. Somewhere between booty pops, shemmies, soul truths, and random “Agüita!!” moments, Abby and Audra unpack what it means to trust yourself more deeply while navigating a rapidly shifting world. Because sometimes healing is sacred…and sometimes it comes wrapped in laughter, wild honesty, and a deck of cards staring directly into your soul. Embrace the experience.

    Maters be damned....Snack Attack Dealers Unit!

    Season 4 kicks off with wildfire horse energy, unfiltered laughter, raw truth, and the kind of conversation that only happens when two people stop trying to hold life together perfectly and choose to ride it honestly instead. Abby Pagud and Audra Whatley return to the mic diving headfirst into the chaos, speed, and overstimulation of the world right now—where everything feels like it’s moving too fast and somehow demanding more while people are quietly trying to hold themselves together behind the scenes. This episode dances between humor and heartbreak in true Embracing the Wild fashion. From ridiculous cosmic jokes about “Ur-anus” to deep conversations around grief, loss, and the strange reality of continuing life after losing someone you love, nothing is bypassed and nothing is overly polished. Together, Abby and Audra explore the emotional whiplash of being human while still creating, still dreaming, still building “mad creations” in the middle of real life. They open up about what’s shifting behind the scenes, what’s calling them forward next, and how transformation rarely arrives looking neat or graceful. This isn’t about having everything figured out.It’s about learning how to move with the fire instead of fearing it. Healing dances with humor.The sacred collides with the absurd.And somehow, through all of it—life keeps asking us to stay awake enough to experience it fully. Welcome back to Embracing the Wild.Embrace the experience.

They don’t shy away from the messier parts either—anger, emotional energy, and the silence that often becomes the gateway to deeper self-discovery. It’s a raw, soulful exploration of what it takes to reset, realign, and find your rhythm again in a world that won’t stop evolving. Expect honesty, humor, and a few mind-drop moments that land right where you need them.

    I'm Not that tall!!!

    The title may be short, but the conversation stretches wide. Abby and Audra dive into the gut-brain spiral, toss around some wild truths about genetics, dance with the drama of dietary choices, and side-eye the struggle of adapting to what’s new (even when it’s good for you). It’s curious, it’s nonlinear, and it’s layered in ways you’ll feel in your body. No maps, no manuals—just two souls following the threads where they lead. And somehow, it all lands exactly where it’s meant to. Because healing dances with humor, and growth doesn’t require height… just the nerve to keep evolving.
