In this episode of The Wild Temple Podcast, I sit down with Stephanie Chee Baréa—a lifelong educator, Yogini, sound healer, and feminine empowerment guide. We dive deep into her journey of finding purpose and belonging as a woman of multicultural heritage, and how this has shaped her path of Dharma and leadership.

Stephanie shares her vision of women’s empowerment, exploring what it truly means to step into leadership roles with authenticity and courage. She also discusses the power of sound healing as a tool for transformation and connection.

Stephanie introduces us to a vision that she had in 2018, that is now an called HerFestival (her-festival.com), an empowering annual gathering for women. 

We talk about how this March, we are welcoming people to join us for a practice with HerFestival facilitators, focusing on Matangi, the Tantric goddess of belonging, creativity and Nature. 

This will be followed by The Wild Temple’s deep study of the Sri Sukta, a powerful mantric practice that begins on March 29th.

Join us as we explore purpose, belonging, women’s empowerment, and the transformative power of sound.

To learn more about Stephanie’s work, visit her website at stephchee.com or join her (and us! in Cabo, Mexico for our HerFestival gathering in May, 2025 (her-festival.com).

The book Stephanie recommends  is "The Power of Bridging: How to Build a World Where We All Belong" by John A. Powell, a book that beautifully resonates with today’s theme of purpose, belonging, and empowerment.
