I first came to know of Dina in 2021 through her work with the UK Medical Freedom Alliance (a very important organisation, given the times, consisting of doctors and various other health care professionals, which I have linked up below). It was my friend Friday who introduced me to Dina, and I was immediately impressed by her knowledge, conviction and strength of character. These last two years have presented me with the opportunity to connect with many women who have truly risen to the calling to fight for a better way for humanity. These connections have enriched my life in ways I didn’t know I was missing, and I will always be grateful that the madness has given me so much in terms of community, and in turn, personal growth. I felt sure I would enjoy wherever my conversation with Dina took us, and I was right; I hope you gain from it too.

In her ‘day to day’ life, Dina is a Holistic Nutritionist, specialising in working with women who are of reproductive age, supporting them with hormonal balance. She is currently also training in homeopathy.

I first met Jo 12 years ago, as a new mother, living in a new place, with lots of new ideas coming to me as to how I wanted to live my life. Meeting Jo actually formed a critical role in how I moved out into the world in this newly evolving version of myself. She was, and continues to be, very inspirational to me, and always a great support of my vision. Leaving Leicestershire was hard for me, with the friendships I grew there, and Jo is certainly someone I miss being able to see regularly. It was a pleasure to speak to have this conversation with her, and a joy to be able to share her with you in this space. She is truly passionate about her work with women, and with food, with her desire for excellence of service in her work, creating community, leading with kindness, and showing up with love, being the benchmarks of success for her. If you know Jo, you know her definition of success has more than been met over the years, and I feel sure will be for years to come. Enjoy this conversation, and welcome to The Sounds of the Rising in 2022.

A short episode from this week, as we lead from the Winter Solstice to the Holidays.

"The next time you are feeling spiritually dark,

Remember that our hearts started beating in the darkness of the womb.

Seeds germinate in the darkness of earth,

And the earth rests in the darkness of winter so that spring can return.

We all need fallow time.

Darkness is a gift.

It’s a great open space in which anything can happen.

Surrender to it and light will return."

Have a wonderful rest. Thank you all for being here with me.

With love,

Rochelle x

Calea is the most beautiful soul. She is a woman who was born to coach women to be well in their bodies through connection to nature + through relearning their self-worth. She is Canadian born + bred, but found her home in Scotland, on meeting her husband Kevin. Together they make the beautiful partnership, with their three children; truly living the life they advocate through their work. I so enjoyed this conversation with Calea. When I listened back to edit it, I enjoyed it even more - so much wisdom + beauty within. I have always thought fondly of Calea, ever since I met her about four years ago, and I am so delighted to bring her into this space with us all. Enjoy her words.

Lou came into my life at a time I desperately needed her. I was so full-on in my business, and had been for years, that I had not been able to come up for air, and I so longed for someone who could support me to fulfil the future dreams I had for my work. I was so busy running on the treadmill of the day to day needs of my business, I had not been able to create the structure and systems I knew I needed, and I therefore was certainly not in the place where I could take on anything new. Lou came to me as an assistant, something she no longer does for anyone else I believe, but has become an indispensable ‘partner’ for me in my business, without whom I would not have achieved what I have over the last year; oftentimes she has taken on the role of a coach during one of our calls, when I am feeling frantic - in short I am very grateful to have her in my life. It is no surprise to me therefore that Lou is now solely an Anti-Burnout mentor. Lou is a Radical Self Love Advocate, which feeds into all that she does, empowering weary female entrepreneurs to show up authentically as, and unapologetically for, themselves IN their businesses so that they can reconnect with their purpose and truly love what they do.

I have known Adele for over five years now, and I have witnessed her conviction and drive to support women with understanding their menstrual cycle and empowering them with the knowledge of how to live a life in balance, not burnout. I have always revered Adele’s ability to draw women to her, through collaboration with other women + her powerful energetic force. She builds community like barely any other woman I know: community that nourishes womankind in a primal + hugely necessary way given the world that we find ourselves in today. You will hear in this episode Adele speak of her story, fascinating in itself, and share with us how she works, and why she works, in the way she does. We also share a little about our new book, which we have co-authored, Essential Feminine Wisdom.

I thought I might title this episode 'Trigger Warning', as I mention in the intro, but as I made the image in Canva, I rested on Self-Inquiry as a softer introduction to this deeply explorative conversation. Alice is someone I have known virtually from the other side of the world now for 4 years. I have had the joy of meeting her in the flesh once; I hope with every ounce of my being that the world shifts + I will have that opportunity again. For now I get to revel in her magnificence via the screen of my phone. She is captivating + compelling all at once. Never have I taken the time to listen to her wisdom + regretted it. I feel certain you will feel the same after listening to this episode. However, I cannot promise you that you won't be triggered; I can in fact almost guarantee that at times you will. Within these moments though lies the opportunity for true self-inquiry, and the exploration and solidification of your own personal truth; something which the system is attempting to keep you from, but which every one of us must dig deep to both discover + then hold onto without compromise. Where is your line? I hope today's episode will help you gain clarity + conviction around that very question. The rest is up to you.

Rarely in life do you meet someone as kind + giving as my friend Anna. She is known to all that meet her as a truly gentle soul, who gifts those who meet her with her truly magical presence. She is also, and perhaps partly because of her ethereal nature, also an exquisite artist. In this podcast Anna shares how her life has woven her creative work into where she is today: the places she’s been, the teaching experiences, the people she has met, young + old, from all backgrounds, along the way. Anna shares how this anthropology and these connections have all enriched her current work, being guided to explore colour, light, pattern, language and movement, through which she is passionate about the continuous healing of herself (as so many strive for always, ever growing), but also, which has become her life’s work, the healing of others.

Today is my 40th birthday. It is also 11.11 which sees the energetic portal of awakening open to us all. Today is a day that can support personal transformation, which is further supported by us being in Scorpio season, which opens us to the energies of: resurrection, release, renewal!

In today's episode I have shared some short thoughts on this day, and my feelings moving into a new decade.

Cami, beyond anyone I know, thrives on curiosity + questioning everything. She is the epitome of a truth seeker, and whilst this can be triggering for some, her goal is to truly help liberate people + support them to seek out their own truth, and live a life that is aligned with that. In this episode Cami shares what has brought her to the woman she is today, and what drives her in her work. She has become a very dear friend to me over the years, and I am grateful to have her in my life. I hope one day really soon the world will change to be a place where we can freely meet in person again, but until then we will keep the conversation flowing across the ocean. In this episode you get to hear a glimpse of such a conversation. Enjoy.
