In this episode of Blossoming Beyond, we’re slowing the pace and stepping into a softer, more intentional December.

As the world speeds up — inboxes bursting, calendars overflowing, everyone expecting more — your nervous system might be whispering (or shouting), “Please go slower.”

This episode is your invitation to honour that whisper.

Inside this episode:

• Why this season feels so intense for women in midlife
• How to shift from hustle → harmony
• Simple ways to reclaim joy that feels real, not forced
• Your “Holiday Energy Blueprint”: drains, nourishers, calm anchors + boundaries
• The power of connection as self-care (and why community restores what solitude can’t)

Our final circle of the year takes place on Sunday, December 14th, under the expansive energy of the Sagittarius New Moon.

At Breathe and Blossom, you are encouraged to nurture and nourish your own soul first and foremost, when you take time to replenish your spirit it allows you to serve others from the overflow- you cannot pour from an empty cup.

In this week’s episode of Blossoming Beyond, we’re exploring a truth that feels especially important as we move into the busiest time of the year:

Not all connection fills us.

Sometimes, the very relationships and routines meant to bring us joy can instead leave us overstimulated, drained, and disconnected from ourselves.

But when connection is intentional, safe, and soulful — it becomes a form of self-care.

This conversation is your gentle reminder that you don’t always have to retreat to refill. Sometimes, being with the right people — at the right pace — is the most restorative thing you can do.

Grab your cuppa and join me for a grounded chat about “social self-care” — connection that heals rather than depletes.

🌿 In this episode, we’ll explore:

• Why November often feels like emotional and energetic overload
• The difference between connection that nourishes and connection that drains
• How to approach social self-care as part of your wellness practice
• The kinds of community spaces that regulate your nervous system (not overwhelm it)
• How to honour your boundaries while staying connected to what matters most

✨ Find Your Flow — A Day of Nervous System Nourishment

If your body’s craving calm as the year winds down, join me and four incredible local women for Find Your Flow — a restorative day retreat designed to help you slow down and reconnect.

🌸 Sunday, 16 November at Yarroweyah Memorial Hall

🌿 Heart-centred meditation, gentle yoga, essential oils, sound healing & more

What really happens when women gather in circle? Why is this ancient practice re-emerging as one of the most powerful forms of healing and connection in the modern world?

In this deeply nourishing episode of Blossoming Beyond, I’m joined by Adriana Basile — Women’s Circle Facilitator, Mentor, and Relationship Coach — for a heart-opening conversation about sisterhood, ritual, and the sacred art of gathering.

Adriana shares her personal story of transformation after a major life transition and how sitting in circle became a pathway back to herself. Together, we explore how circle work reconnects women to their truth, restores belonging, and heals the quiet loneliness so many feel in midlife.

In this episode, we dive into:

• How Adriana found her calling as a women’s circle facilitator and mentor
• Why gathering in circle is medicine for modern disconnection and burnout
• The ancient lineage of storytelling and feminine wisdom
• Healing the sisterhood wound and dismantling comparison culture
• What really happens inside a women’s circle (and why it’s not “woo-woo”)
• How circle work is evolving — from sacred spaces to corporate and community gatherings
• The ripple effect of women reconnecting to themselves and each other

Adriana’s grounded wisdom and compassionate presence are an invitation to slow down, breathe, and remember that you are not alone. Whether you’ve been curious about attending a women’s circle or simply longing for deeper connection, this conversation will awaken something within you.

“When women gather, magic happens. Deep healing occurs, and we remember our power, our softness, and our purpose.” — Adriana Basile

Adriana is a Women’s Circle Facilitator, Educator, Mentor, and Relationship Coach, devoted to supporting women to return to their truest selves and step confidently into who they are becoming. Through her circles, retreats, and trainings, she weaves meditation, sound, somatic practice, and ritual to nurture healing, authenticity, and heart-centred growth.

Beccy empowers women with the knowledge that enables them to make positive and informed decisions regarding their own and their family’s health and wellbeing.

At Breathe and Blossom, you are encouraged to nurture and nourish your own soul first and foremost, when you take time to replenish your spirit it allows you to serve others from the overflow- you cannot pour from an empty cup.

When was the last time you felt truly connected — to yourself, to others, to something bigger?

In this heartfelt and thought-provoking episode of Blossoming Beyond, Beccy Freeman explores the missing pillar of wellness that’s too often overlooked: connection.

We talk a lot about nutrition, sleep, and movement… but what about the relationships, communities, and moments of belonging that hold us steady through midlife? Connection isn’t a luxury — it’s essential medicine for your nervous system, your hormones, and your heart.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why loneliness quietly erodes women’s physical and emotional health
• What disconnection can look like in the second half of life
• How the science of belonging proves connection is vital for wellbeing
• The invisible weight of loneliness — and why it’s not your fault
• Five gentle, practical ways to begin rebuilding genuine connection today
• How community and co-regulation help calm your nervous system and restore vitality

Beccy blends soulful reflection with science-backed insight, reminding you that you are not alone — and that connection, even in the smallest moments, can transform how you experience this season of life.

Why Connection Matters in Midlife

Loneliness can creep in quietly — even in a full home or busy schedule. Hormonal shifts, changing roles, and cultural silence around midlife transitions can leave many women feeling unseen and untethered.

In this episode, you’ll learn how reconnecting — through small daily choices, meaningful conversations, and supportive community — can reawaken your sense of safety, purpose, and joy.

A Season of Support: Season of Her™

Inside Season of Her™, connection is at the heart of everything. Over twelve weeks, Beccy guides women through the three pillars — Wellness, Mindset, and Meaning — all grounded in community and belonging.

Round One is currently underway, but if you’re craving that sense of shared growth and gentle accountability, the waitlist for Round Two is now open.

You’ll be the first to know when doors reopen later this year.

Key Takeaway

Connection doesn’t always find us — sometimes, we have to build it.

Send the message. Make the plan. Join the circle. Because connection isn’t just nice to have — it’s the missing pillar that steadies everything else.

Do you ever feel like life is just happening to you — like the choices have been taken out of your hands?

In this soulful episode of Blossoming Beyond, Beccy Freeman explores how midlife, with all its transitions and tender shifts, can feel disorientating… and why reclaiming your power to choose is the key to creating a more fulfilling second half of life.

• The permission you may need to say no to what drains you and yes to what lights you up
• Why reclaiming choice is the path to meaning, calm, and joy in your next chapter

Have you ever wondered if you’re losing your mind? Forgetting words mid-sentence, standing in the kitchen not remembering why you walked in, or snapping in rage over the smallest thing?

You are not broken. You are not going crazy. You are simply entering a new season of life.

In this deeply personal and powerful episode of Blossoming Beyond, Beccy Freeman shares the raw story behind why she created Season of Her™ — her 12-week group coaching journey for women navigating perimenopause, midlife transitions, and the quiet grief of change.

Beccy opens up about her own fears of early-onset dementia, the shame of not knowing the word perimenopause, and the dark nights when she felt like a stranger in her own body. She also reveals how she rebuilt a sense of steadiness through rituals, support, and self-trust — and how you can too.

And for listeners of Blossoming Beyond, there’s a special invitation at the end of this episode. 💫

💡 In this episode, Beccy shares:
