Welcome to the Modern Sacred Podcast: Women's Work We exist to awaken the spark of innate worth and intuitive power in every woman — equipping her to step into a life that feels modern, present, and sacredly her own. The Modern Sacred Podcast is devoted to the reclamation of feminine power — the quiet, fierce, and divine essence that lives within every woman. Hosted by Chelsea and Abby, this is a space for women ready to slow down, reconnect with their bodies, and reclaim their feminine power through deep connection with other women. Through soulful conversations, storytelling, and heart-centered dialogue, we explore what it means to embody the sacred in a modern world shaped by hustle, hierarchy, and the lingering echoes of patriarchy. If you’re longing for a life of connection, beauty, embodiment, and power — and want to stop doing everything for everyone else — this podcast is for you. Each episode invites you to return to your body, your intuition, and your truth — offering reflection, inspiration, humor and practical guidance for women seeking a slower, more intentional rhythm, authentic self-expression, and supportive community. We dive into topics like sacred feminine practices, conscious living, embodiment rituals, reclaiming sexuality and creativity, nervous system regulation, and the art of being witnessed. Beyond the podcast, Modern Sacred offers ways to gather with other women: our monthly virtual Witnessed Women’s Sharing Space, 6-week book clubs, seasonal retreats, and a nurturing membership that brings these offerings together for connection, growth, and alignment. Join us bi-weekly and step into a life where modern living meets sacred remembering — where you are seen, supported, and celebrated exactly as you are. It’s time to rise, root, and reclaim the Modern Sacred.
