Sweet Surrender: Answering the Call of the Divine Feminine

What happens when we stop trying to control every step of the journey and learn to trust what we feel deep within? In this heartfelt episode of Soul Sisters Shares, Rachel and Tina take you with them to the South of France, where they embarked on a life-changing pilgrimage and retreat devoted to Mary Magdalene and the Divine Feminine. What began as an intuitive calling became an invitation to soften, surrender, and discover what becomes possible when we allow ourselves to be guided by something greater than ourselves. Through personal stories, vulnerable reflections, and the powerful experiences they shared along the way, Rachel and Tina explore what it means to answer the call of the Divine Feminine in a world that often asks us to push harder, do more, and keep everything under control. Together, they unpack the power of surrender and the courage it takes to trust our intuition, release old protective patterns, and open our hearts to the unknown. From navigating fear and stepping into vulnerability to descending into the darkness of a sacred womb cave, their experiences reveal how letting go isn't about giving up — it's about making space for a different way of being. This is an invitation to slow down, listen to your body, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and discover where you might be holding on so tightly that you're no longer able to receive. ✨ In this episode, we explore: What the Divine Feminine is and how it lives within each of us. How the call of Mary Magdalene led Rachel and Tina to the South of France. What surrender and trust really mean — and how they show up in everyday life. How intuition speaks through the body when we slow down enough to listen. The protective patterns, fears, and need for control that can keep us disconnected from love. What it means to surrender into the unknown and allow ourselves to be held. How we can begin to soften, receive, and lead from the heart. Your invitation to reflect: What is hidden from me that needs to be revealed? Where in my life am I clinging, grasping, or trying to control? Let these questions meet you with curiosity and compassion. You don't need to travel to the South of France or descend into a womb cave to begin your own journey of surrender. Sometimes, the most powerful transformation begins with a pause, a breath, and a willingness to listen. We close this episode with a beautiful surrender prayer, inviting you to release what you're carrying, reconnect with love, and remember that you are guided, safe, and deeply loved. This is the beginning of a special series inspired by our pilgrimage and the profound lessons we brought home with us. There is so much more to share. Take a breath, soften your shoulders, open your heart, and join us. With so much love, Rachel & Tina 🤍 Book mentioned in this episode: Love Unleashed by Dr. Nicola Amadora Connect with Rachel and Tina: Rachel https://rachelbentoncoaching.com/ IG - @wildroserising Tina https://healthstylesconsulting.com/ IG - @healthstyles_consulting RETREAT 2027 - October 1-3, 2027 More info coming soon - if interested or have questions, please contact Tina or Rachel directly.

Nourishing, Nurturing & Coming Home to Nature: Returning to Our Natural Rhythm

What if the peace, presence, and nourishment you’ve been searching for are closer than you think? In this special episode of Soul Sisters Shares, Rachel and Tina take you with them to the cottage, where they’ve spent several days immersed in the trees, water, fire, fresh air, and the natural rhythms of Mother Nature. Together, they explore what it truly means to slow down, reconnect, and come home to yourself. From the pull of our phones and the constant pressure to be productive, to the discomfort that can arise when we finally become still, this conversation invites us to question the beliefs and patterns that keep us disconnected from our bodies, our hearts, and the natural world around us. Rachel and Tina share simple, accessible practices for reconnecting with nature — whether that means taking one quiet minute outside, walking barefoot in the grass, feeling the sun on your face, hugging a tree, sitting in a green space, or simply stepping away from the noise and listening. They also explore the wisdom of nature’s seasons and how we, too, move through cycles of expansion, rest, release, renewal, and reflection. Because perhaps we were never meant to live in a constant state of doing. Nature doesn’t apologize for resting, shedding, blooming, or slowing down. So why do we? Come settle in, take a breath, and allow this episode to be a gentle invitation to slow your pace, reconnect with your senses, and remember that coming home to yourself can be as simple as coming home to nature. With love, Rachel & Tina 🤍 Connect with Rachel and Tina: Rachel https://rachelbentoncoaching.com/ IG - @wildroserising Tina https://healthstylesconsulting.com/ IG - @healthstyles_consulting

The episode closes with a beautiful loving-kindness meditation that will leave you feeling grounded, supported, and deeply connected to your heart. If you've ever struggled with feeling "not enough," this conversation is a gentle reminder that love—not criticism—is the path home. In this episode, you'll discover: Why self-judgement keeps us stuck and how compassion creates lasting change. How body image, aging, and societal expectations shape our inner dialogue. The three inner critic voices that quietly influence our lives. Simple ways to return to self-love in moments of criticism. A guided loving-kindness meditation to cultivate compassion for yourself and others.
