Women Awake Amelia Travis

What if the secret to living well is not to do more, but less, and allow the magic of the fertile void to magnetically draw beauty, joy, healing, and creativity into you life?
After "making it" with her first book, Kate Northrup found herself feeling pressured to figure out what was next - to immediately do more, create the next thing - but her body, mind, and spirit told her to wait in the stillness. What emerged from her own fertile void was the brilliant offering to womxn of the world to "Do Less."
Kate Northrup is an entrepreneur, bestselling author, speaker, and mother who has built a multimedia digital empire that reaches hundreds of thousands globally. Committed to supporting ambitious women to light up the world without burning themselves out in the process, my guest teaches data-driven and soul-driven time and energy management practices that result in saving time, making more money, and experiencing less stress. 
She’s served thousands of entrepreneurs in her signature membership, Origin® Collective, guiding them to infuse feminine energy into business and helping them reclaim time, and she has also helped over 5,000 students heal their relationship with money with her signature Money Love Course. 
Her first book, Money: A Love Story, has been published in 5 languages, and her second book, Do Less: A Revolutionary Approach to Time and Energy Management for Busy Moms, is available now and is a prescient and timely read that feels especially potent during these strange times. 
Her work has been featured by The Today Show, Yahoo! Finance, Women’s Health, Glamour, The Institute of Integrative Nutrition, Wanderlust, and The Huffington Post.

Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown 
Grab your copy on Amazon here
Inspired by Octavia Butler's explorations of our human relationship to change, Emergent Strategy is radical self-help, society-help, and planet-help designed to shape the futures we want to live. Change is constant. The world is in a continual state of flux. It is a stream of ever-mutating, emergent patterns. Rather than steel ourselves against such change, this book invites us to feel, map, assess, and learn from the swirling patterns around us in order to better understand and influence them as they happen. This is a resolutely materialist “spirituality” based equally on science and science fiction, a visionary incantation to transform that which ultimately transforms us.adrienne maree brown, co-editor of Octavia’s Brood: Science Fiction from Social Justice Movements, is a social justice facilitator, healer, and doula living in Detroit.

“Our thoughts might be the most powerful environment that we can find ourselves in.” Dr. Kulvi Kaur drops this truth bomb on the show, then gives a powerful explanation for the science behind how our inner landscape not only responds to but also determines our genetic expression. 
What if the struggle that we face aren't fixed? What if our genetic expression can be changed as we learn to rewire our DNA? 
Dr. Kulvinder Kaur is one of the world's leading epigenetic researchers - a brilliant, compassionate, engaging womxn of science and spirit. 
As a scientist at the University of Oxford, Dr. Kaur’s early research pioneered the use of disruptive technologies to enhance the healthcare industry through genetic diagnostics. After fourteen years at Oxford, she was invited to work in the US Biotechnology industry as an ‘Alien of Extraordinary Ability’.
On moving to California, Kulvinder discovered the power of applying integrative health practices in her own life and wanted to understand the mechanisms behind some of the physiological changes she observed.
Breaking down science in a way that is digestible and exciting, we traverse the bridge between modern science and ancient technologies - and find that the potential for healing is vast and full of possibility for each of us.
In this episode, we explore:
The difference between epigenetics & genetic medicine
How our environment impacts our health, genes, & happiness
Methylation groups & how they can be reversed when your environment is balanced
Using your voice to be heard as a powerful woman
Healing ancestral wounds & writing new stories
The power of sound for healing

Traveling in dreams, psychic smelling, visions of past lives, talking to plants: do these ideas excite you or fill you with dread? In this episode, we chat with Mimi Young, shamanic practitioner and modern day medicine woman, about what it means to identify as a witch, and how we can cultivate a deeper relationship with the natural world.
Mimi Young is a shamanic practitioner and founder of Ceremonie, an esoteric brand focusing on in-person and online shamanic education, Remote Shamanic Readings, and plant medicines for skin and aura. Mimi works with a blend of modalities including core shamanism, plant spirit medicine, chao magick, and Chinese esoterics, with a focus on integrating the subconscious with the conscious, past lives work, divination, dream work, ancestral connection, and consciousness expansion. She is also a neurofeedback practitioner (@openmindsperformance), where she supports others in accessing their peak via neurological resilience. It's this intersection of ancient and frontier that she finds most fascinating and effective for reaching full human potential.
Mimi became a shamanic practitioner “by accident” while on bedrest for 5 months during her second child’s pregnancy. Having an alinear background in design, education, and clean tech, she sees her background as a way to relate, to be curious together, and to live our most aligned selves.

Animal Liberation: The Definitive Classic of the Animal Movement (P.S.) by Peter Singer
Since its original publication in 1975, this groundbreaking work has awakened millions of concerned men and women to the shocking abuse of animals everywhere -- inspiring a worldwide movement to eliminate much of the cruel and unnecessary laboratory animal experimentation of years past.
In this newly revised and expanded edition, author Peter Singer exposes the chilling realities of today's "factory forms" and product-testing procedures -- offering sound, humane solutions to what has become a profound environmental and social as well as moral issue. An important and persuasive appeal to conscience, fairness, decency and justice, Animal Liberation is essential reading for the supporter and the skeptic alike.
 
Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs and Wear Cows: An Introduction to Carnism by Melanie Joy PhD
This groundbreaking work, voted one of the top ten books of 2010 by VegNews Magazine, offers an absorbing look at why and how humans can so wholeheartedly devote ourselves to certain animals and then allow others to suffer needlessly, especially those slaughtered for our consumption. Social psychologist Melanie Joy explores the many ways we numb ourselves and disconnect from our natural empathy for farmed animals. She coins the term "carnism" to describe the belief system that has conditioned us to eat certain animals and not others. In Why We Love Dogs, Eat Pigs, and Wear Cows Joy investigates factory farming, exposing how cruelly the animals are treated, the hazards that meatpacking workers face, and the environmental impact of raising 10 billion animals for food each year. Controversial and challenging, this book will change the way you think about food forever.
