The Radical Mother Village Podcast with Christa Bevan
A Radical Mother is a woman poised in her power ready to disrupt cycles of generational trauma that runs in her family like wildfire. Dedicated to transcending these cycles of trauma to change our lives, the lives of our children, and the landscape of our communities, radical mothers get out of bed each morning prepared to take on the work no one before us has done. We refuse to hand down our inherited traumas, choosing instead to metabolize its poison and transcend its grasp.
This podcast is designed to support, empower, and educate you on your journey of mothering radically. Whether you’re a veteran mother with grown children, a new mama with young little ones, or maybe even just thinking about becoming a mother in the future, my goal is for you to feel supported along the way.
In this podcast, we’ll cover topics ranging from the science of stress responses to reconnecting with your intuition to strategies for dealing with anxiety and overwhelm and hear inspiring stories of other radical mothers who have done this work before.
I’m your host Christa Bevan and I’m a nervous system educator for cycle breaker moms as well as a certified TRE (trauma releasing exercises) provider, and a trauma-informed yoga instructor. And of course, a fellow Radical Mother. My approach to this work blends neuroscience backed tools and heart-centered intuition.
So if a radical mother is you also, you’re in the right place. I’m so excited you’re here and I can’t wait to get started with you because I truly believe that when mothers heal, the world heals.

Customer Reviews
Topics that resonate!
I’m thrilled to have found a podcast that speaks to the journey I’ve been on for the past decade. The guests, topics, and real-life experiences in this podcast have helped me to feel less alone and more connected with other moms who are doing transformative work breaking cycles. One of my new favorite podcasts!
Generational trauma cycles are their own epidemic
I see these cycles on repeat for 3,4,5 generations in some families and ask “where can it stop?”.
This is an incredible source to support being the change and deciding, on your own, what life can look like and all the possibilities it holds without the shackles of what has been.
sent! sent! sent!
Loved the emotional code episode. Sent this podcast to my sister and friends already! Everyone should listen to this.
