Forest bathing. Even just saying that feels so calming, soothing and grounding. And my amazing guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Sanaa Green - is here to share with us more about this beautiful practice and indeed her entire experience of earth based connection as a Priestess. Sanaa takes incredible comfort from nature which is something that I believe is undoubtedly available to all of us and likely medicine we can call upon from deep within ourselves and the natural world more to our...

We are hearing a LOT right now about the nervous system - our nervous systems - and the role that they play in our healing, growth, spiritual development, capacity to hold space for ourselves and others and even just live with presence and reverence. And so yes - that makes these systems within us incredibly important. My guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Elisha Tichelle - is a true nervous system alchemist - especially for those of us who are heart centred entrepreneurs. What Elisha...

Claire Obeid is a truly special soul. Her incarnation in this lifetime I know is at least in part - to serve others on their spiritual path. In other words…she is a bonafide modern Priestess and space holder - with a particular love for the lineage and teachings of Mary Magdalene. In this episode Claire potently shares how she believes we are each our own medicine woman, healer and remedy. It is a sharing that is opening, empowering and sprinkled with more than a bit of Claire magick. Enjoy...

Let’s face it. When we are undergoing a spiritual awakening, transformation or personal discovery path of any kind, it’s not something that is always filled with flowers, dreamy meditations and heart-swelling moments of newness and innate confidence. It can in fact be a time that is dark, challenging and filled with stress. And I could not think of anyone more amazing to speak to our spiritual journeys and the role that stress may play in those than my guest today Karen Aird. Karen runs an...

When I first heard the term Chat GPT I thought the person saying it to me had made a mistake and meant something else entirely. Clearly I was wrong and both Chat GPT and other forms of AI are now here with us - and look very much like staying. In a world that is now moving technologically in such rapid ways - where do we as spiritual, feeling, emotive human beings fit with that? And how can we learn to live with and even embrace these new forms of intelligence while also acknowledging and...

My guest on The Priestess Podcast today Alexandra Wiatr knows a thing or two about pleasure and money. She is an incredibly successful business woman who is passionate about helping other women unlock their potential in a way that has soul, heart and depth at the forefront. Alexandra believes there is a core connection between our physical bodies and presence, our spiritual connection AND the abundance we are trying to call into our lives. In particular she believes this connection lies in...

One of the questions I often get asked is how can I uncondition, unlearn and unravel myself from the patriarchy. Well…that’s a big question for sure and there is of course no one size fits all answer. One way I am certain however that we can make inroads with such a desire is to embrace with much deeper reverence the fact we are cyclical beings and are surrounded by cycles in our lives all the time. The sun. The moon. The seasons. Life and death itself. I could go on and on. How is embracing...

The world of women’s friendships are often romanticised. Hollywood dreams of best friends forever and being there for each other through thick and thin are presented as the norm of what we all should have and be experiencing - but the reality can be far from that ideal. For many if not most of us, we carry a sister wound of some kind when it comes to our friendships and connections to other women, and that wound can vary in size and impact in our lives in so many ways. My beautiful guest on...

We are talking all things business, and in particular spiritual business, on The Priestess Podcast today with my wonderful guest Bec Cuzzillo. Bec and I explore what a spiritual business actually is, the influence of Goddess Spirituality in her life and business, and what scaling your business actually means. We also talk about the vital importance as a business owner of knowing your foundational starting point as key to any dreams you have to scaling and growing what you do - AND not getting...

Money is one of those topics that can bring up a lot of ‘stuff’ for us.

Tara is a former corporate accountant turned life, spirituality and money coach and we are here to talk about money wisdom. There is a mention in here of cheap underwear and expensive cheese and so you know given that we have...

What does someone's size have to do with spirituality? Well to be perfectly honest with you it shouldn’t have anything to do with it - but the world we live in that is steeped in sizest and fatphobic rhetoric and messaging - makes it so. My truly wonderful guest on The Priestess Podcast today is Andrea Westbrook, a life coach for fat, curvy and plus sized women. Andrea shares with us about the necessary reclaiming of the word fat, how exclusionary spiritual spaces can be of people who are fat...

You have likely heard me say more than once on The Priestess Podcast that our shadow, fears and ego self have so much to teach us as human beings and are not things to push away or deny. They only grow in ways that can make them even harder to face when we do that! And I speak from experience - which maybe you can relate to as well. Tracy Neely is here with us on the show today to speak to how our wounds - and in particular our emotional wounds - can be a pathway of transformation for us into...

Priya does so in a way that does not bypass the messiness and sometimes challenges we all...

I don’t think it is an exaggeration to say that trauma and all its nuanced meanings for us as human beings is having a very spotlighted moment right now. And given we are all traversing a global pandemic that really shouldn’t come as a surprise to any of us. Do you actually know however what trauma is? And isn’t? And when someone says they are trauma informed - or you say you are trauma informed - what that actually means? And also ethically does not mean as well? My guest on The Priestess...

Mental health and spirituality. What is the connection? Well…some may say that’s a silly question because for those of us attuned to our spiritual nature, we know that all of life is in some way connected to every part of that. And yes, that includes the parts of our lived experience that can be and are challenging, dark, sad, frustrating and require extensive help and healing. My guest on The Priestess Podcast today - Shannon Kaiser - is a world renowned best selling author and speaker and...

All of us are cycling through life in some way at every moment. We are born, we live, we die. And in between those moments we are reborn and also live and die in metaphorical ways over and over again. The times in our lives where we cross thresholds of bodily experience or living can be profound for our sense of self and connection to earth and others. Menstruation, birth, creative undertakings, illness, loss, gain, puberty, menopause and so much more. All are in their own separate, but...

Sometimes when we talk about the Goddess and her world I wonder if maybe she feels like a very far off entity and being and even feeling that is not very grounded or practical in our day to day lives. Given she has such ancient roots I can understand where this comes from but I truly believe the most powerful relationship we can develop with the Goddess - or a Goddess - is one where it shows us our full humanity and divinity and can help our lives be better in small but significant ways. My...
