This week Lea Luna (and the podcast!) turned seven years old. Since these years of life are the most formative, this feels like a big milestone. In this episode, Rachel takes a trip down memory lane and reflects on Lea’s life, from her birth to present day. She shares hilarious stories that highlight her daughter’s feisty personality (like the time she tried to run away from home) and more.

One of the most bittersweet moments of parenthood is when you realize that your child is growing older and will need you less and less every day. All we can do is provide them with love and support until they are ready to launch. Tune in for a nostalgic episode that will truly remind you that the days may be long, but the years are short.

Next week’s episode is Ask Rachel for the 7th anniversary. Call Rachel to leave a question at +1 (720) 443 1771.

With spring on the way, Rachel has some exciting news to share. She is hosting a 12 day yoga challenge! After finding herself in a bit of a rut in her physical practice, she is committing to movement in the best way possible: with her community.

This podcast episode is all about discipline. We often wait for motivation to take the lead and inspire us into action, but life actually works the other way around. We have to show up for ourselves - even when it’s hard and even when we don’t want to - and that’s how discipline and motivation are built. Tune in for a deep dive of how to anchor into a solid routine of self-care, and why doing it with a community can set you up for success.

When you feel sad, what do you do? Do you immediately search for reasons and explanations? Do you instantly look for “cures” that will bring you back to happy? Today’s episode dives into a practice that Rachel has been working on for many years now: the practice of sitting with discomfort.

After waking up feeling incredibly sad, Rachel shares what her day looked like while letting sadness linger. Humans have a need to fix when something feels wrong, but if you avoid your feelings, they just stay bottled deep inside. Today’s episode offers an alternative; a way to invite your feelings into your life as companions and work through them instead of against them. At the end of the episode, Rachel reminisces on past versions of herself and discusses how you can hold space for your previous selves as you move into new seasons of your life. Tune in for a deep, heartfelt episode that will remind you to allow the mess and honor everything you’ve moved through.

This week’s episode is a truly grounding episode both physically and collectively! Rachel begins with the healing properties of bone broth, how to prepare it and even a delicious recipe for baby bone broth. It turns out, bone broth is truly one of the most nourishing and versatile foods to incorporate into our diet! Rachel shares the entire process and ways in which she nourishes herself and her family with the benefits of bone broth.

What if we all got together and shared the responsibilities of making bone broth, as it truly is a labor of love?! A need for community is still on Rachel’s mind, and after calling out for a collective community of mother’s and shared responsibilities on last week’s show, she received so many beautiful emails inspiring her to create community here, once again.

Tune in for an episode that will remind you that if we can’t connect in person, we can connect virtually, right here. There are so many ways in which we already have our virtual village and can expand upon it! The truth is, no matter where we are in the world, we are on this journey together. The village is right here, and it always was.

In this week’s episode, Rachel tries so hard not to talk about her and Bear’s sleep schedule, but in the end, it’s not really an option! Lack of sleep affects the body, mind and spirit so much. Rather than fake it, Rachel shares openly, from the heart on how she’s coping, what supplements are helping to sustain her energy, and her deep seated longing for a village of other families to build community with.

When we work together in community with each other, we have support, care, love and validation. Mothering is hard and having a village to support you is ideal! But, building that village takes a lot of work, so in the meantime we connect by asking for help when we need it, powering through regardless, and lots of different supplements, minerals, vitamins and herbs to sustain us.

Tune in for an episode that will inspire you to find community, take your vitamins, and appreciate sleep on a whole new level!
