October 23222. From Survival to Aliveness with Sarah Entrup
What if reconnecting with your desires begins with telling yourself the truth? This week, we welcome spiritual teacher and embodiment practitioner Sarah Entrup for a candid conversation about midlife transformation, intimacy, and coming home to the body.
Sarah shares her journey from a deeply sensitive, intuitive childhood to a lifelong spiritual path, and how the unraveling of her marriage in her 40s became an initiation into deeper authenticity. Together, we explore what becomes possible when women stop overriding their feelings and begin listening to the wisdom within.
We talk about the ways women learn to push through, please others, and disconnect from their own needs. Sarah offers her perspective on moving out of those familiar patterns through awareness, movement, breath, and supportive relationships. She also shares a powerful framework for reconnecting with what we want: truth to pleasure to desire.
In this episode, we explore:
Why midlife can feel like everything is falling apart—and how that unraveling can reveal a deeper truth.
Recognizing fight, flight, freeze, and fawn patterns in everyday life.
The disconnect between what we say, what we show, and what we actually feel.
Making room for anger, grief, heartbreak, and the emotions we’ve learned to suppress.
Balancing structured practices with intuitive movement and flow.
Creating space within motherhood and relationships to hear our own needs.
Rediscovering pleasure through simple moments of feeling good in the body.
How honoring what’s true can help us reconnect with desire, purpose, and aliveness.
The connection between women’s personal awakening and broader cultural change.
This conversation is an invitation to slow down, feel what’s here, and consider what you might want when you have room to listen. As Sarah reminds us, pleasure doesn’t have to begin with something extraordinary—it can begin with noticing what feels nourishing, comforting, or alive.

October 16221. Wired & Tired: Where Are the Guardrails?
Women are tired. Anxious. Angry. Grieving. And exhausted by the expectation that we will keep absorbing the blows and moving forward.
In this episode of Tend HER Wild, Betsy and Kate ask: Where are the guardrails—the boundaries, protections, and collective responses that keep harm from becoming ordinary? We explore the toll of casual cruelty, objectification, and silence, and why women need more than encouragement to take care of themselves. We need community, accountability, and men willing to speak up.
In this episode, we explore:
The exhaustion of feeling constantly on alert while carrying anger, grief, and disappointment.
How the bystander effect and our willingness to move on can leave women feeling alone.
“Himpathy”—the disproportionate sympathy extended toward men who cause harm, often at women’s expense.
The power of women coming together to name what is happening and demand something different.
Why men’s voices matter—and what meaningful solidarity looks like beyond private agreement.
Skeleton Woman, the story shared by Clarissa Pinkola Estés in Women Who Run With the Wolves, as a lens for exploring fear, tenderness, and renewal.
The possibility of healing when we stop turning away and begin patiently untangling what hurts.
We close with an invitation to men: Bring your courage, your tenderness, and your willingness to stay present. We need your voices—and your hearts.

October 09220. Growing Ourselves up Requires Courage
In today’s episode, Betsy & Kate talk about taking accountability for our lives, and the 2 things that most stymie or growth: fear and lethargy. Life is scary, and we realize that we can never get rid of fear, so how do we move forward with courage despite the fear.
In today’s episode we talk about:
Dr. James Hollis’s Book “Living An Examined Life” and his teaching that fear and lethargy thwart us most in our development.
Kate and Betsy’s experience with fear and its own unique manifestation for both of them – Kate fears disappointing people and Betsy fears having a voice.
The opportunity of the “Heroic Summons” that forces us to quit looking “out there” in the world and blaming others, and instead go in and take responsibility for our response. Kate shares how the power of silence has always helped her when she makes big decisions.
3 things to know about courage (the first one may be a hard pill to swallow).
Our favorite definition of courage by Chogum Trungpa: “Courage is not being afraid of yourself”.

October 02219. Is Matriarchy Possible? When Women Are Given Power
In today’s episode, Betsy & Kate reflect talk about the possibility of matriarchy as opposite of our current system of patriarchy. What might happen when women are given power? We get into the nitty gritty of this today, as well as historical examples of cultures that revered women (and how they were peaceful).
In today’s episode we talk about:
Why Barak Obama fantasized what would happen if women were in charge of every government for 2 years and what he believed might happen.
How there has never been a matriarchy in what is known historically, but there is evidence of matrilineal societies where the feminine was valued, revered, and honored.
There are still matrilineal societies (160 around the world), and these cultures value partnership vs a dominator model of governance.
How the best clue to a nation’s growth and development potential is the status and role of women in that culture.
The broken systems, including what we are recently seeing at Cornell.
5 ways we can start building more matriarchal systems

September 25218. Organizing Your Space, Reclaiming Your Energy with Jenn Robb and Dani Worrell
What if clearing a closet could make room for more than clothes? This week on Tend HER Wild, we talk with professional organizers Jenn Robb and Dani Worrell about the connection between our spaces, our energy, and our sense of possibility.
In this episode, we explore:
How clutter can quietly drain our energy and attention.
Why the best organizing system is one that fits your life and the way your mind works.
The emotions and memories tied to our belongings—and how to let things go with gratitude.
How organizing can support us through moves, downsizing, grief, and other life transitions.
Why asking for help can bring relief, even when a space never looks “perfect.”
The surprising ways Jenn and Dani blend practical organizing with intuition and healing.
This conversation is an invitation to look at your space with curiosity and compassion—and consider what might open up when you make a little room.

September 18217. Comfortably Numb: Are You Feeling Your Life?
In today’s episode, Betsy & Kate reflect on how we all numb as a way to cope with life. We all experience emotions we don’t want to feel, so we distract ourselves in a myriad of ways. We frame numbing as not necessarily problematic until it became a way of life versus a form of self-regulation.
In today’s episode we talk about:
Our favorite ways of numbing.
Brene Brown’s theory/research that we cannot selectively numb: if we numb the hard stuff we also numb the good stuff.
A reflection of how numbed out we were in our 20s.
The different ways we numb: Run/Avoid, Suppress, Analyze/Think, Dissociate, Substance Use, Transcendence/Spiritual Bypass.
Why endurance can be problematic long term.

September 11216. Healing from the Inside Out with Tyeisha Washington
Tyeisha Washington, ARNP has been a caregiver for as long as she can remember. From protecting her younger brother as a child to spending more than two decades in healthcare, caring for others has always been woven into her story.
In this episode, Tyeisha shares her path from nursing assistant to board-certified nurse practitioner and entrepreneur. She opens up about the difficult work environment that pushed her to imagine a new path—and how her daughter’s diagnosis with lupus and rheumatoid arthritis inspired her to explore a more holistic, personalized approach to wellness.
That journey ultimately led Tyeisha to create Glow Hydration Station, Aesthetics & More, a space where clients feel heard, supported, and empowered to advocate for their health.
We explore:
The women who recognized Tyeisha’s gifts before she fully recognized them herself
Her daughter’s autoimmune diagnosis and the painful realization that her symptoms had initially been overlooked
Why women must trust what their bodies are telling them
The relationship between stress, mental health, physical health, and support
Tyeisha’s approach to education, holistic wellness, supplements, and IV hydration
The uncertainty and courage involved in leaving a steady career to become an entrepreneur
How a difficult childhood became a source of resilience, compassion, and purpose
Tyeisha also reflects on the “deep scar” that became her doorway to the Wild Woman. Rather than allowing her early experiences to define or diminish her, she used them to build a life rooted in strength, service, and stability.
Her story is a powerful reminder: listen to your body, trust your inner knowing, and never underestimate what can happen when another woman sees your gifts and says, “Yes, you can.”

September 04215. Honoring Iconic Wild Women: Dolly, Maya, & Georgia
In this episode, we explore how the Wild Woman archetype lives through three iconic women: Dolly Parton, Maya Angelou, and Georgia O’Keeffe.
Following the loss of Dolly Parton, we reflect on why her life touched so many people across generations and differences. Her wildness wasn’t rebellion for rebellion’s sake—it was radical self-definition. She transformed her Appalachian roots into art, protected ownership of her work, embraced femininity on her own terms, and used her success to create opportunities for others. Dolly represents the Wild Woman as Creator: I will make something beautiful from what I’ve been given.
Maya Angelou represents the Wild Woman as Voice. Through trauma, silence, motherhood, activism, and art, she repeatedly refused to let the world define the limits of her being. She entered the places where women can be silenced—and returned with a voice powerful enough to transform personal experience into communal wisdom. Her declaration: I will speak what I know.
Georgia O’Keeffe embodies the Wild Woman as Sovereign. She built a life around her own rhythms, perceptions, creativity, and relationship with the natural world. Through solitude and fierce independence, she listened to the call of her own life more closely than she listened to cultural expectations. Her declaration: I will live according to my own nature.
Together, these women invite us to:
Move from adaptation to instinct
Move from pleasing to authenticity
Move from silence to voice
Move from fragmentation to wholeness
Move from cultural expectations to inner authority
The Wild Woman is not simply the “bad girl” or the rebellious woman. As Clarissa Pinkola Estés describes her, she is the woman who is instinctual, creative, psychologically alive, sovereign, and unwilling to abandon herself.
Perhaps the world recognizes and honors the Wild Woman without always having language for her. Perhaps the women who embody her are, as Maya Angelou wrote, truly phenomenal women.
Dolly: Create. Maya: Speak. Georgia: Be.
Watch Maya Angelou perform “Phenomenal Woman.”

August 28214. Reclaiming Financial Power with Diana Richey
What if financial empowerment isn’t only about learning how to invest—but also about uncovering the beliefs that have shaped your relationship with money?
In this episode, we talk with investor, tax attorney, writer, and financial educator Diana Richey about the inner and outer work of building wealth. Diana grew up with financial stability and strong lessons about saving and responsibility, but she also absorbed a message familiar to many women: men make the money, while women are cared for financially.
That conditioning followed Diana into adulthood. She married young, became a “trailing spouse,” and built a successful legal career around her husband’s professional ambitions. As she approached 30, however, the life that looked successful from the outside began to feel increasingly heavy. A simple free-writing exercise helped her acknowledge what she truly wanted: nature, simplicity, freedom, and a life that felt more like her own.
Diana shares the painful story of signing a postnuptial agreement that relinquished her rights to the company her husband built during their marriage. After their divorce, the company went public for billions—and Diana was forced to confront not only the financial loss, but also the codependency, people-pleasing, and “good girl” conditioning that influenced her decision.
Rather than allowing that loss to define her, Diana used the resources she still had—her legal and financial education, her savings, and her determination—to begin studying the world’s most successful investors. Over several years, she developed her own disciplined investment process centered on research, risk awareness, and thoughtful decision-making.
Together, we explore how women can become more connected to their money, trust their instincts, and build financial confidence through action.
In this conversation:
How childhood conditioning shapes women’s relationships with money
Diana’s journey from “trailing spouse” to managing her own investments
The role of codependency, people-pleasing, and the “good girl” identity
Why financial transformation requires both inner and practical work
Investing with greater awareness, integrity, and alignment
Building confidence by starting small and learning through experience
Trusting your instincts while developing a thoughtful approach to risk
How women can use wealth to support their families, communities, and values

August 21213. Erica Miller: A Lifelong Spiritual Seeker
In today’s episode we talk to Erica Miller, a holist healer, reiki master-teacher, massage therapist, intuitive, yoga teacher, and shamanic practitioner. We dive into what shamanism is, and the power of this modality to help heal the planet. Erica guides us through a brief shamanic journey to meet our wild woman – which is something listeners can do as well. We were blown away by what was revealed!
We talk about:
Even as a child, Erica was having paranormal experiences, deep spiritual conversations with her grandmother, doing yoga with VHS tapes, and exploring the unseen world.
A profound silent meditation retreat that clearly revealed to Erica the next step on her journey as a healer toward studying shamanism, and the 2 birds on a walking path that pointed the way.
Erica’s definition and experience of shamanism, and how she specifically integrates it into the healing work she offers.
Her perspective about chaos theory, the intense times we are living through, and why the wisdom of nature can help heal the planet.
What a shamanic journey actually is, which is followed by Erica guiding us into a shamanic journey to meet our own inner wild woman.
The profound insights revealed to Kate and Betsy via the journey Erica guided.
