Wild, Wise & Whole

Lydia McCartney

Wild, Wise & Whole is a podcast for women who feel the call to slow down, soften, and come back into relationship with their bodies. Hosted by Lydia, a Somatic Psychotherapist, body-based specialist, and founder of The Reverence Method™.  This podcast is rooted in the belief that healing is not something to fix or force, but something that unfolds through safety, presence, and deep respect for the body’s wisdom. Lydia’s work blends therapeutic depth with embodied, intuitive, and cyclical ways of understanding the female experience. Each episode explores what it truly means to be wild, wise, and whole, not as an identity to perform, but as a lived, embodied practice. Through conversations on trauma, the nervous system, sexuality, feminine rhythm, devotion, and embodied leadership, this podcast invites you into a slower, more honest way of relating to yourself and your life. Whether you’re navigating burnout, disconnection, shame, or a quiet longing to feel more at home in your body, Wild, Wise & Whole offers reflections, conversations, and practices grounded in reverence for your nervous system, your cyclical nature, and the woman you are becoming. This is a space to meet yourself with care.To soften rather than override.To remember what your body already knows.

    EP 106: Reclaiming Your Inner Wild Woman Within with Fiona Mccoss.

    Send us a text Join me for this yummy conversation with Fiona Mccoss, where we dive into the realms of wild feminine embodiment, sexuality, and reclaiming power through archetypes. Fiona shares her journey as a women's mentor, highlighting the importance of understanding sexuality as something far deeper than just the physical, and the necessity of reconnecting with the wild woman within. Together, we explore the complexity of the whore archetype, the dark feminine, and the power of authenticity when it comes to navigating desire and self-discovery. This conversation is a powerful reminder for women to embrace their true nature and honour the many layers of their femininity. We also touch on themes of self-love, empowerment, and the reclamation of pleasure through the archetype of the wild woman. From acknowledging trauma to redefining pleasure in simple, everyday ways, this dialogue highlights the importance of personal sovereignty. It reminds us that true fulfilment originates from within, not from external validation.
