When a dear former mentor shared just a snippet about Chonteau in an Instagram Story, something "pinged" in me and following intution we're blessed to have her share her journey through perimenopause and menopause - moonpause as she's dubbed it.

In this Sacred Conversation Chonteau, a retired social worker and practitioner of indigenous feminist teachings, shares her journey through menopause, which she refers to as "moon pause."

She describes a gentle transition marked by hot flashes and gradual changes in her menstrual cycle, culminating in her last bleed at age 44.

Chonteau emphasizes the importance of maintaining a relationship with her womb space and the moon cycle, incorporating practices like journaling, meditating, and using herbs.

She highlights the significance of understanding and working with the body's rhythms rather than against them, advocating for a holistic and non-clinical approach to menopause.

We explore the multifaceted experiences of menstruation and menopause. How it's individual and different for each of us, and how important it is to not compare yourself with others but allow yourself to experience your own journey as it is.

We delve into the integration of emotional, spiritual, and physical aspects, and the importance of not separating these elements.

We discuss the concept of mastery as living one's best life and the beauty in the unfolding process of life stages.

Our conversation concludes with reflections on the wisdom and honor of elderhood.

In this episode I share my own journey with spirituality and how it's evovled over the years.

You'll hear me share:

✨ My upbringing and how I wasn't, like many others, what I'd consider "open" from the beginning. ✨ The near death experience at age 11 that has shaped my perspective on life ever since. ✨ Abandoning organized religion. Meeting A Course in Miracles. ✨ Realizing I was here to coach. ✨ Reconnecting with Yeshua & Mary The Magdalene. ✨ Getting energy work and energetic alignment in a way that finally made sense. ✨ Choosing alignment over manifestation.

Slight disclaimer | I've had the blessing of walking with Anne in this lifetime since somewhere around 2014 as her Spiritual Business Coach so I am COMPLETELY biased when it comes to Anne's brilliance.

Yet, just like when I sat in Sacred Conversation with Aga Bera, even having walked with her for so long there was many parts of her spiritual journey that I didn't know.

I call Anne one of my OG clients and it's SUCH a blessing to watch her continually rise, evolve and expand.

In this Sacred Conversation Anne Goncalves, a yoga teacher from Denmark, shares her journey from graphic design to yoga, heavily influenced by a friend's encouragement.

She how her early spiritual awakening at age 13 during confirmation in Denmark, questioning religion led her to find a connection with Buddhism and how this exploration led to taking Buddhist vows at 29 and practicing Buddhism in London.

Later she shifted to yoga and Chinese medicine, integrating physical and spiritual practices.

Disappointed by internal conflicts in Buddhist communities, she now embraces a holistic approach, combining various spiritual and health practices, emphasizing the importance of embodied experiences and discernment in spiritual guidance.

Our conversation explores the importance of discipline and embodiment in spiritual practices. We emphasize the value of committing to a single practice, such as yoga or Kundalini kriya, for deeper understanding. Highlighting the significance of daily meditation and energy work for achieving inner calm.

You'll hear us discuss the integration of spirituality into business, stressing the need for authenticity and embodied experience. Concluding with reflections on mastery, emphasizing the ongoing journey of learning and the importance of practical, embodied experiences.

We emphasize the importance of continuous learning and growth in mastering a craft, such as yoga teaching. Sharing how true mastery involves remaining a student, being open to new knowledge, and recognizing that one's understanding can evolve.

We also discuss the development of yin yoga practices, particularly the realization that connective tissue benefits from movement, not just passive stretches.

Finally we talk about how movement, both physical and metaphorical, is crucial for avoiding stagnation and pain, and for staying open to new opportunities and growth.

Ke'oni will tell you I plucked him out of obscurity back in 2017/18 when I invited him into Sacred Conversation about the ferns, on my podcast The Magdalene Voices.

If you ask me, what I probably did, is what I do with my clients, see the blueprint of his potential before it manifested in the physical sphere.

Watching Ke'oni grow and expand into that blueprint has been and is an absolute joy!

In this Sacred Conversation Ke'oni shares his transformative journey from drug addiction and incarceration to finding purpose, rehabilitation and building a solid business centered on fern medicine and emotional expression.

He shares his upbringing, being hanai'd by his grandmother and the profound ceremonial influence in his early life. Ke'oni recounts his struggle with addiction, which began after a traumatic transition to a Western lifestyle and the conflict between his ceremonial and modern identities.

He describes his incarceration and how a vision of his grandmother's hands reconnected him to his purpose, symbolized by his name, "Ke'oni," meaning "spiral hurls forth." This vision led him to rediscover his roots and share his knowledge through his website and workshops.

We highlight the importance of embracing challenges as opportunities for growth, the significance of cellular memory in Hawaiian culture, and the continuous expansion of one's true self through purposeful expression.

We talk about the importance of small, consistent actions in achieving significant goals as well as affirming one's belonging and the role of the divine feminine in establishing autonomy.

Concluding with highlighting the significance of observing and correcting life patterns, rather than reacting to crises and the importance of love and courage in confronting personal challenges, and the value of integrating traditional and modern education in personal growth.

Imagine a world where your medical doctor is also an energy worker able to look holistically at what you've got going on and can formulate a prescription that supports healing on physical as well as emotional, mental and spiritual levels… That's the world I want to live in!

When I saw that a research study had found that almost 80% of respondents reported having had a spiritual need within the last 30 days I immediately knew I wanted to sit in Sacred Converdation with the gorgeous soul behind the study – and PhD Thesis – to have him share his own personal journey.

In this Sacred Conversation Dr. Tobias Anker Stripp, Phd and postdoctoral researcher at the University of Copenhagen, shares his journey integrating faith and health research.

You'll hear how an existential crisis during medical school, lead to a spiritual awakening and him exploring various practices, including Reiki, and conducted research on the relationship between faith and health.

How despite initial skepticism, he became a Reiki Master and integrated these practices into his medical work.

Tobias emphasizes the importance of living one's truth and the challenges of reconciling spiritual beliefs with a scientific career.

Our conversation explores the interconnectedness of spiritual and physical well-being, emphasizing the importance of both conventional and holistic approaches to health.

We touch on the challenges of integrating faith into modern, secularized societies and the potential of spiritual practices to alleviate suffering – and agree on the importance of love as a foundational principle and the need for inclusive, diverse communities.

Tobias openly shares where his own spirituality is currently at and the challenges he's facing navigating fatherhood.

He emphasizes the transformative nature of parenting, describing it as a spiritual practice that involves detachment and surrendering to the needs of his children.

Finally Tobias reflects on the unpredictability of life and the importance of staying aligned with one's true self to be prepared for whatever challenges arise.
