Discretion is advised; This episode contains female pleasure as the centre and unfiltered sexuality.

In this conversation with Kristen Lena, we go deep into the realities most women have never been given permission to explore.

Because the truth is; many women are living disconnected from themselves -
their voice, their power, their pleasure - and they don’t even realise it.

Inside this episode, we explore:

→ The conditioning that keeps women small, quiet, and compliant
→ Why so many women feel anger, resentment, or numbness
→ The truth about shame - and how it shapes your identity
→ Female sexuality, pleasure, and reclaiming your body
→ What it actually means to live as a sovereign woman

This conversation is raw, confronting, and deeply activating.

If you’re ready to question everything you’ve been taught…
this episode will shift you.

Allow me to introduce you to Kristen Lena

Kristen Lena is a catalyst for bold, authentic self-expression, a system-disruptor who challenges the notion "this is how we've always done it” and a stand for saying the things that need to be said.  In her presence, people are activated to who they really are, they are seen, heard and gotten.

She has spent the last 25 years leading, speaking, and facilitating courses, workshops and retreats for women teaching them how to live, love and lead in the most authentic and empowered ways and to declare their desires boldly and unapologetically.

She works with women in major identity transitions (divorce, menopause, career), ones who are sick and tired of people-pleasing, complying and playing nice.  The ones who desire to finally live a life of authenticity, passion and purpose.

Women who work with Kristen experience a profound shift regarding the roles they have been playing, the ones that no longer fit and the ones they desire to live into next.  Activation of who they really are is the outcome.

This episode is a wake-up call for every woman in business who feels like she’s doing everything right… but still not seeing results.

Because the truth is…

It’s not that you’re not good enough.

It’s not that your work isn’t valuable.

It’s that you’re speaking to the wrong people.

In this conversation with Holly MacCue, we break down:

→ Why your content isn’t converting into clients
→ The difference between interested audiences vs ready-to-buy clients
→ How to position yourself as the only logical choice
→ Why selling feels hard (and how to make it feel natural)
→ The real reason you feel stuck - and how to shift it

And it will show you what’s actually required to build a powerful, profitable business.

What if building a successful business didn’t require burnout, constant pushing, or selling in ways that feel misaligned?

In this episode of The Rebel Matriarch Podcast, Samantha sits down with Carissa Hill to talk about authentic marketing, soul-led sales, and the inner work required to build a sustainable business as a woman.

This conversation explores the deeper layers of entrepreneurship; including identity shifts, visibility, and learning how to sell in a way that actually feels good.

Inside this episode:

• Why traditional sales strategies often feel misaligned for women
• The inner work behind authentic marketing
• Navigating visibility and fear in business
• Building a business without burnout
• The energetic side of sales and attracting aligned clients
• How authenticity creates sustainable growth

If you’ve ever felt resistance around selling or marketing yourself, this episode offers a refreshing perspective.

Allow me to introduce you to Carissa Hill

Carissa Hill is a born entrepreneur who has been trying to sell things since

she was a young child and figured out she could sell painted rocks at local

markets or buy lollipops before school and sell them for double during

class.

Carissa can't help but naturally turn every idea into a business or a way to

make money.

At the age of 21 her first "successful" business was born.

Within 4 years Carissa turned a home spray tanning business into a chain

of 3 beauty salons, with 9 staff, had her own range of wholesale hair

extensions and mobile services around Brisbane Australia.

She didn't work in the business at all and kept the business growing with

Facebook marketing.

Since 2014 Carissa has helped over 4000 entrepreneurs across hundreds of

industries to master the art of successful Facebook marketing and to set up

their businesses to run (and grow) without them in it.

Carissa runs a successful Facebook group of over 18,000 members called

"Coffee With Carissa" and is the founder of The CEO,OOO Club.

Her mission is to help entrepreneurs to build successful businesses that

allow them to live their dream lives.

She lives on top of Tamborine Mountain (and even owns her own

rainforest) in the Gold Coast Hinterland, Australia with her two sons Jayden

& Ryley, and her black cat, Peppy.

Carissa is a bestselling author of the book "I Like Money - The Secrets To

Actually Making Money With Facebook" and has been featured in

publications such as Forbes, Inc, The Huffington Post, Entrepreneur

Magazine, ABC Radio, Koshie’s Business Builders, NBC tv, and Funnel

Hacker Radio.

What if the rage you’ve been taught to suppress is actually sacred?

In this powerful conversation, Samantha sits down with Melissa Rose Stone to explore the misunderstood force of feminine rage, matriarchal leadership, and the ancient priestess path.

Melissa shares her journey through deep mother wounds, spiritual awakening, and reclaiming her voice after years of self-abandonment and people pleasing.

Together we explore:

• Why trauma can become a catalyst for purpose
• The return of the modern matriarch
• Sacred rage as a boundary-setting force
• The difference between uncontrolled anger and embodied power
• Motherhood as a spiritual initiation
• Priestess history and what it means in modern times
• The future of matriarch-led communities

This conversation is raw, expansive, and deeply activating.

If you’ve ever felt your anger rising but didn’t know what to do with it - this episode will change how you see it.

Allow me to introduce you to Melissa Rose Stone

Mel is a mother, philosophical artist, spiritual coach, and somatic practitioner, and the founder of The Mystic Playgrounds, a body of work devoted to helping perceptive women reconnect with their bodies, intuition, and vitality.

She is the creator of The Wild Witness Method, a framework that blends embodied resilience training, intuitive somatics, expressive movement, and neuroscience-informed practices to help women strengthen self-trust, reconnect with their inner signals, and live more fully aligned with their values.

Mel’s work sits at the intersection of mysticism, psychology, and embodied practice. As a mother, her philosophy also places children and the inner child at the centre of human evolution, recognising curiosity, play, and emotional truth as essential forces for a healthy and thriving humanity.

Through her work, women often experience stronger boundaries, clearer intuition, renewed vitality, and the courage to live more honestly and expressively.

This episode includes discussion of postnatal depression, trauma, dissociation, chronic pain, and plant medicine experiences.

In Episode 22 of The Rebel Matriarch Podcast, Samantha Sanford sits down with Hunny Grace Dempsey for a raw, embodied conversation about dissociation, nervous system healing, and what it actually means to come back into your body as a woman.

This is not mindset work.

This is about:

– The difference between intellectual healing and embodied healing
– Why women disconnect from their bodies
– Hyper-independence, hypervigilance & motherhood
– The seven senses (including interoception & proprioception)
– Sensuality as power, not sexuality
– Reparenting yourself without abandoning community
– “Current state vs desired state” as a life pivot

If you’ve done the journaling.

If you’ve done the mindset work.

If you “understand” your trauma but it still lives in your body…

This episode will change how you approach healing.

Allow me to introduce you to Hunny Grace Dempsey

Hunny is an integrative somatic therapist and embodiment coach with 5 years of experience guiding women through deep nervous system rewiring and identity recovery work. 

She specialises in helping women heal after adversity, recover from people pleasing, and reconnect with their truth ~ their True North ~ so they can know, love, and trust who they are from the inside out. 

She has walked many women through her signature process. And she knows firsthand the unbridled vitality and prosperity that becomes possible when a woman decides to choose herself.

Trigger Warning: Discussion of suicide attempts, emotionally abusive relationships, and sexual harassment.

You’ve done the mindset work.

So why are you still stuck?

In this powerful conversation with Angelique Koster, we explore quantum healing, Chinese medicine, emotional intelligence, and how the body stores identity, trauma, and untapped power.

Inside this episode:

– The connection between organs and emotions
– Why liver = anger & soul expression
– Bladder issues and “being pissed off”
– Fear of success in business
– Relationship identity shifts
– Pushing vs feminine pull energy
– Curiosity over shame
– Simple embodiment practices that actually work

If you’re ready to stop overcomplicating healing and start listening to your body, this episode will expand you.

Allow me to introduce you to Angelique Koster

Angelique is here to activate your world. 

As a Wholeness Retrieval Guide and intuitive initiator, she brings penetrating clarity, emotional depth, and grounded magic into any room she enters. If you are experiencing self doubt, scattered energy, money blocks, burnout, or the quiet ache of having lost pieces of yourself along the way, she is here to help you retrieve your power, rebuild self trust, and return to embodied wholeness.

A devoted cat mom with a reader addiction, a believer in magic who happily dabbles in science, Angelique weaves intuition and intellect into transformational spaces that feel both mystical and practical.

Her clients often arrive exhausted. They often hate the sound of chewing, feel their socks are too loud on their feet, sigh at the checklist of all the self care routines they do just to feel somewhat functional. After sessions, they feel at home in their bodies, things start shifting without them doing more and it isn't about clearing blocks or fixing, it is using the body to guide the shifts that are desperately ready to up level. They become naturally bolder in business decisions, more content in life shifts, more relaxed around the kids buzzing around the house. Money, health, mental wellbeing gain momentum and compound with each session.

Trigger Warning: Discussion of traumatic birth experiences, medical system harm, infertility, emergency surgery, and postpartum mental health.

Pregnancy is not a checklist.

It’s not just appointments, ultrasounds, and symptom tracking.

It’s an amplification portal and most women are never told that.

In this episode of The Rebel Matriarch Podcast, Samantha Sanford sits down with Libby Hoffmann, holistic wellness guide and founder of Modern Homemaker, to explore:

• The medicalisation of birth and what it cost women
• Postpartum disconnection and “settling” in motherhood
• Human Design in pregnancy and the concept of pregnancy themes
• Hardwired conditioning before birth
• Why every pregnancy feels different (and why that matters)
• Reclaiming pregnancy as a spiritual, energetic, and embodied experience

This is not about rejecting the medical system.

It’s about reclaiming personalisation, sovereignty, and power.

If you’ve ever felt like pregnancy was bigger than what you were told…
you were right.

This conversation will expand how you see motherhood forever.

In a time of women’s turmoil I was gifted an opportunity…

An opportunity to be part of a collaboration so close to my heart.

There are not many men who I follow. There are not many men who’s teachings and purpose align with mine so magnetically.

And then there is Harrison Meagher… MeagHER…

A gentleman, a brother, a heart-led speaker and coach - a friend…

We came together in collaboration as he gifts this world with beautiful and deeply FELT and EXPERIENCED guided meditations.

And he asked me, ‘what would your beautiful women and audience like to receive right now?’

And straight away I knew…

With everything that is going on in the world that showcases how certain men in destructive power are and have been treating women - we needed a representation of what DIVINE MASCULINE FEELS like.

In order for my beautiful women who are feeling the depths of assault, betrayal, and pain to rise up stronger and LOUDER than ever before - we need an embodied way BACK to our Matriarchal POWER and Centredness…

To which he replied, “To awaken and activate further the divine masculine in women so they can step into their Matriarchal power!”

Yes. YES!

So, my beautiful women, my beautiful sisters… I am so HONOURED to present a collaborative guided meditation with my brother and friend, Harrison Meagher:

AWAKENING THE DIVINE MASCULINE
