In this RAW Voices episode, Debra Hall reads her poem "Sheela Na Gig Speaks" — an invocation of the ancient carved figure found across old church walls, and what she represents for women reclaiming their wildness after 5,000 years of being shaped into someone smaller.

Debra traces Sheela Na Gig as storm, mountain, and threshold all at once — a figure who "speaks" without words, stirring something ancestral back to life. It's a call to step past shame and perfectionism, and into the raw, unclaimed edge of yourself.

Iona Conner was 79 at the time of this conversation. Today she counts almost 81 years, and she is nowhere near done. Iona’s life long mission is consumer liberation. An environmental activist for more than 58 years — air pollution inspector, former nurse, nonprofit founder, and publisher of her own climate change newspaper reaching readers across America and Africa — Iona joins this Edgecast after letting her dragon speak in a RAW workshop with Julia: "I'm an elder, and I want to share what I've got with younger women.”

What unfolds is a conversation about what it actually means to become an elder, not just grow old. Iona talks about her love for trees ("it's the trees who hold my heart most tenderly"), her motto — "use it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without" — and her slow, deliberate leaving of patriarchy after a lifetime of being, in her words, a rebel who couldn't be raised easy.

Julia will be holding a Radically Alive Women Immersion in Aotearoa, New Zealand, from 26-29th November 2026.

Clare Dubois is the founder of ⁠⁠treesisters.org, a global women's organisation for reforestation which as of June 2024 had planted more than 28 million trees. Clare left Treesisters in October 2022 with burnout and has since focused on her Healing journey.

In this interview, she shared her personal experience with her recovery and trauma work, and also its relevance for the "bigger picture". With immense Clarity, she shares about the limitations of working with feminine principles in a patriarchal world, the damming of our internal rivers as women, internalised patriarchal values, and the necessity to dismantle our own obstructions to our power. She also speaks of being at source, and of turning towards yourself, of epigenetics, the importance of shadow work, and more.

This Radically Alive Women episode is rich with story through which Clare's Clarity comes through, and packed with her refreshingly clear observations and distinctions.

In this mystery guest episode, Julia sits down with someone she knows nothing about beforehand, not even the name — and it turns out to be Lindsey Lockett, trauma integration coach, relationship coach, and founder of the women's community Rooted Web.

What unfolds is a conversation about what happens when you stop performing safety and start living from inner truth. Lindsey traces her path from a strict evangelical upbringing in the Texas Bible Belt through a mental health crisis in 2019 that became the doorway into her healing work, to the woman she is now: unapologetically loud, boundaried, and building a women’s community on principles based on the pre-capitalist village commons.

“Being sick is helping me to stop fighting myself”

“Daily experience is a way to receive information from reality and grow more awareness muscle to hold more consciousness, and if you are moving through life with a speed that does not allow experience to land, you are not really feeling and you are not extracting the juice from the orange!”

Sónia is offering Joy Club, Rage Club and one on one coaching.

In this Radically Alive Women Edgecast conversation, Julia Neumann speaks with Bernice Raabis, founder of Dance the Medicine, an international team of conscious dance professionals helping people build dance communities across the globe.

Bernice shares what it’s like to live nomadically with her 14-year-old daughter as they travel the world, blending practical planning with deep bodily listening and a willingness to follow what feels radically alive. She also explains her somatic approach to tracking sensations and emotions as a practice of self-awareness, and how Dance the Medicine brings together leadership skills, DJ training, and dance facilitation to support collaboration, creativity, and community.

Along the way, Bernice reflects on dance and music as ancient tools for bonding, and on the role of fear, mistakes, and tenacity in transformation.
