Today we have a special and tender episode with my friend, Nicole Granati. Nicole is a spiritual counselor, minister, and teacher -- as well as a long time member of The Womb Room!  Nicole shares the story of her abortion outside the medical system, the lessons it brought, and how it changed her life. It was especially beautiful to have this conversation with Nicole after being with her in the Sovereign Womban container for the past year, where we get to play with these practices of orienting to the medicine of our experiences, and what it means to move in our agency and sovereignty. In our conversation we get into: Nicole's family background and growing up outside the medical system How she approached a journey with an unplanned pregnancy, why she was drawn to menstrual extraction, and finding a midwife to walk with her The power of baby beings (spirit babies) and how Nicole chose to end an agreement with a baby being The challenges of postpartum and the need for community care How an abortion propelled Nicole from maiden to mother, and how it clarified her desire for motherhood Self responsibility, sovereignty, and desire (so much of what we talk about in the Sovereign Womban container in The Womb Room) How you can connect with baby beings in your life through the spirit of amusement Connect with Nicole for 1:1 support at her website, Spiritual Hello, and on Instagram   (she's amazing!) To become a medicine keeper of pregnancy prevention and release work, join Nicole and Qiddist in Sovereign Cycles , a 6-month group mentorship container. If you want to journey with us deep into radical female health and spiritual sovereignty, now is the time to apply for Sovereign Womban, a year-long container in The Womb Room!
