Contain Her Magic

What happens when we begin to reclaim the parts of ourselves we’ve learned to silence?

In Part 2, Cat from Divine Mama Rising and I venture deeper into sensuality, pleasure, desire and the body, exploring what it can mean to reconnect with our life force and feel fully alive.

We talk about Cat’s work with yoni massage and de-armouring, and how a trauma-informed, deeply embodied approach can create space for women to reconnect with sensation, voice, consent and pleasure.

We explore desire as something much bigger than sexuality—a source of vitality, creativity, aspiration and connection to life—and how reclaiming our own desire can ripple into our relationships, families and everyday lives.

And we come back to the question at the heart of Contain Her Magic: How do we contain our magic?

For Cat, it’s about becoming the container ourselves and allowing that magic to become part of our everyday lives.

And perhaps, ultimately, it’s about giving ourselves permission to feel, to want, to be seen, and to fully inhabit the woman within.

Do you feel that motherhood or the roles you play are slowly eclipsing the woman within?

In Part 1, Cat from Divine Mama Rising shares her personal journey of reclaiming the woman within—from becoming immersed in motherhood and losing touch with herself, to rediscovering her identity, desires and sense of aliveness.

We dive into shadow work, the power of women's circles and sisterhood, exploring what happens when we bring what’s been suppressed into awareness and give ourselves permission to feel, express and live more fully.

And then we venture into the more taboo territory of Tantra, sensuality and pleasure, discovering Cat’s beautiful concept of empleasurement—the meeting point of empowerment and pleasure.

And this is only Part 1. We go deeper in Part 2

What if the in-between spaces we often overlook are actually full of possibility?

As Sonia prepares for a summer of travel, reflection, and new experiences, she finds herself living in a liminal space—a threshold between what has been and what is yet to come.

In this personal solo episode, she explores the significance of these "spaces in between" through the lenses of psychology, meditation, mythology, folklore, art, nature, philosophy and science, uncovering a fascinating thread: throughout history, many traditions have recognised that these unseen spaces hold profound significance.

So what does that mean for us?

Perhaps our greatest freedom, creativity and transformation don't happen when we've reached the destination—but while we're learning to trust the space in between.

The episode concludes with a gentle guided meditation, inviting you to pause, embrace uncertainty, and experience the space in between for yourself.

00:00 Welcome & a personal story of standing at a threshold

Could you be a medium? And if so, what does that actually mean?

In this fascinating conversation, Sonia sits down with psychic medium, spiritual mentor, and founder of the Consciousness Academy, Ceejay Amanda, to explore mediumship, intuition, soul purpose, and the deeper journey of learning to know and trust yourself.

Together, they unpack the differences between intuition, psychic ability, and mediumship, while exploring why spiritual connection is about far more than receiving messages from the unseen world. Inspired by her personal journey, Ceejay shares her perspective on discernment and understanding your own unique energetics as the foundation for developing your sixth sense and living in deep alignment with your soul.

This episode moves beyond the question of whether you have intuitive or paranormal gifts and into a richer conversation about soul truth, self-trust, and sovereignty. Along the way, Sonia and Ceejay explore ways we might receive messages from and connect with Spirit, guides, ancestors, and loved ones who have passed, as well as the role of fate, free will, and personal choice in shaping our lives.

Whether you're deeply spiritual, intuitively curious, skeptical but open-minded, or simply seeking a deeper connection with yourself, this conversation invites you to consider what becomes possible when you are open yet grounded.

The episode concludes with a short guided practice to help you tune into your own inner knowing.

What's your way to feel good?

That question sits at the heart of The Big Retreat Festival in Wales, where Sonia recently experienced a magical weekend of vibrant music, movement, community and connection with self and nature.

She arrived with the intention of teaching Sacred Flow yoga and her Contain Her Magic workshop, but returned with stories from people rediscovering parts of themselves they thought they'd lost.

Join Sonia as she explores the festival, the soul-stirring Welsh coastline, and the conversations that sparked a deeper reflection on what it means to feel truly alive, honour our stories and remember what matters most.

What if the things that make us feel good aren't just helping us relax, recharge, or escape? What if they're helping us reconnect with something deeper?

Part travel story, part personal reflection, this episode is an invitation to slow down, listen deeply, and explore the role that joy, nature, and belonging play in helping us find our way back to ourselves.

In this rich, soulful and creatively playful conversation, Sonia sits down with Lisa Lister — author of Witch, Self-Sorcery, Venus, and her newest book Respell Your Reality — for an exploration of creativity, devotion, embodiment, rhythm, and the art of holding your magic.

Together, they dive into the Women of the Wild Rose lineage, cyclical living, the body as a creative vessel, feminine self-creation, and the relationship between imagination, discipline, and devotion. They also explore the underworld journey of transformation, grief, rebirth, and what it truly means to stay with the art long enough for it to become real.

This episode is an invitation to remember your magic, reconnect with your creative fire, and reimagine the story you’re living.

Have you ever felt that the patterns in your life — the ones you can’t quite explain — might be pointing to a story once forgotten, now ready to be brought to light?

In this episode of Contain Her Magic, Sonia is joined by hypnosis practitioner Julianne Thon, whose work was shaped by a deeply personal loss — the passing of her son after years of navigating an unexplained neurological condition. This experience opened the door to a new understanding of healing, presence, and the soul’s journey.

Through introspective hypnosis, Julianne shares how past experiences — from this lifetime, our lineage, or beyond — can leave imprints on the body and subconscious, showing up as patterns, sensations, illnesses or unexplained fears.

The conversation expands into the idea of polydimensional awareness, inviting us to consider that memory, identity, and time may not be as linear as we think.

At its core, this episode is an invitation to trust the wisdom of your soul — and to notice how it speaks to you through your body, your experiences, and your inner knowing— guiding you toward greater clarity, healing, and wholeness.

In this episode of Contain Her Magic, Sonia is joined by Dr. Karen Lamb and Dr. Aliza Cicerone, naturopathic doctors and hosts of the Messy Midlife podcast, for a grounded and honest conversation about midlife and menopause.

Together, they explore what’s actually happening in the body during perimenopause, the wide range of symptoms women may experience, and why this transition often feels so non-linear and unpredictable.

The conversation also opens into something deeper—how this phase can shift identity, reshape boundaries, and invite a more authentic way of living.

This is a conversation about learning to hold the complexity of this time without collapsing… and discovering that within the mess, there may be something quietly magical—an invitation to return to yourself and remember who you are.

There comes a moment when something no longer fits…

There was a you before the journey began —

In this solo episode, Sonia shares a personal identity shift and explores how identity is held not just in the mind, but in the body — in your nervous system, your posture, your patterns, and your emotional responses.

This is a conversation about cycles of becoming —

At the heart of it is freedom —

Because real transformation doesn’t happen by force…

It happens through awareness, embodiment, and the willingness to choose differently — again and again.

This is an invitation to move beyond the story…

Wild.

What happens when life suddenly takes an unexpected turn?

In this engaging and uplifting conversation, Sonia sits down with entrepreneur, yoga teacher, Human Design guide, and author Jaime Moar to explore what it means to truly live in alignment with yourself.

When Jaime faced a serious and unexpected illness at a pivotal moment in her life, it deepened her commitment to trusting her inner authority and living by design rather than by default.

Through honest storytelling, laughter, and powerful insights, Jaime shares how learning to recognize what belongs to you — and what does not belong to you — can transform the way you move through life.

Together they explore Human Design, inner authority, the healing power of community, and practical tools for living more intentionally.

And if you'd like a gentle pause after listening, Sonia’s 5 Minutes Just for You practice is available below.
