🎶Black, the color of our despair🎶 Let’s be honest, Elementals, the red flags seem to be running rampant these days, and it has us wondering if we’d be better 🎶on our own🎶 In Episode 80, Keighlee’s exposing some very specific warning signs, while Emily shares her dealbreaking icks. We can’t help that our lived experiences have led us to have strong feelings about Ram Dass apologists, #Kravis, Smart House, and Backpack Boys™. Listen to find out why some men aren’t that different from fish named after other animals, 🎶this we swear by the staaaaaaars🎶

The Trickster™ is at it again which means the cars are brinking on explosion, and the exes are straight outta the woodwork. And yet, despite all the chaos of a retrograde transit, we’re breaking down the fruits of this call to intention, exposing the theological unsoundness of “everything happens for a reason”, discussing other astrological themes of the present times, and daring to be seen through it all. #Justice4Mercury

O-H! I-Omg! Do we have a fabulous episode for you! Mindy Schlechter of Effloresce Coaching joins us to share how defaultly-prescribed pharmaceutical “cure-alls” like birth control and antidepressants landed her in an involuntary hospital hold, the steps she took to break free from the institutions that sought to contain her, and how she works with women today to hold space for their own healing journeys. Themes of sisterhood, true balance, mental health, ayurvedic healing, and sexual wellness abound in this, the first meeting of what might just have to become an Eldest Daughter Support Group.

What would happen if you were willing to have what you want? Free Birth Society’s Emilee Saldaya joins us to share how she’s built a life that centers women, and why her family and the world are better for it. Through her study of global female oppression and conscious leadership practices, she broke out of the victim consciousness of activism, and learned to work for rather than against. If you want to live an expansive life, be affirmed in your radicality, give birth in Hawaii, or even join the circus, Emilee is here to tell you how you can have it all.

So three ex-vegans walk into a podcast…they don’t last long, because well, there are no historically surviving vegan societies. Some might just call that an epidemic! Christine Rivi returns in Episode 75 to explain why she abandoned her staunch vegan lifestyle in favor of a life that centers nutrient-dense animal products. She asks the question, “Why are we eating an entirely different diet than our biology asks of us?”, while Keighlee asks, “Do you need cinnamon rolls or do you need someone to love you?”. Learn what difference a single egg can make for women, the importance of embracing the paradox of life and death, what happens when we begin to invest in the bodies we call home, and why there are no excuses.

Our first solo episode in weeks and guess who just HAD to be part of it?! And in the midst of our matriarchy season no less…sigh. Today we’re continuing our season-long theme of having polarizing conversations, by discussing the topics we disagree on wholeheartedly. Yes, it’s mostly about persistent piragua peddler, Lin-Manuel Miranda. In this midseason catch-up, you’ll also hear why Keighlee’s the poster child for German New Medicine, and the deets on her forthcoming documentary. And Emily shares her favorite desert-dwelling hobby, and comes clean about being a SoundCloud rapper.

This may be our #matriarchy season, but it’s also our #morningmatcha season, and in Ep. 71, we’ve got a woman who’s no stranger to either. You may know @whosebodyisit for her exposure of truths and advocacy for women, but did you know she’s also an artist, hypnotist, and snake charmer? Isabella Malbin joins us to share how she healed years of binge eating and self-sabotage, and how hypnosis and community were the most potent medicine. From self-sabotage to skipping down Park Avenue after an unmedicated colonoscopy, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
