In this reboot of the podcast and my life, I tell my "before" story in real time instead of waiting for enlightenment. Sovereignty is not a synonym of perfection.

After an epic hot minute of hiatus. The Red Deva tells the story of her namesake and how we are held and cocooned by the darkness of hard times.

As I'm planning Season 2 and all the changes my life has in store for this year, I'm contemplating a mind shift from striving to do all the things and instead BEcoming the person is gets enough of the things down that life moves forward. More Being doesn't imply we don't Do anything.  It does mean we allow ourselves to grow and evolve. This mindset might not look very different on the outside, but for me, it feels a lot more peaceful and loving on the inside. 

One herb that is helping me Be that person with more grace and ease is Rhodiola Rosea. You can find it here:

Today the conversation in my head is about the balance between focus and flow. Being in action and receptive modes at the same time. Yin and Yang are both parts of a Sovereign life but it's easy to get caught in one way of being at a time. How do we integrate the two paths into one? I'll let you know when I figure it out!

Today we are in the presence of fierce sweetness. Author and poet Hannah Elizabeth King joins us to talk about the Occupation of Being, the writing process, and the healing that comes from being saturated in nature. Hannah's debut book of poetry We Are Wanderers is available on November 22, 2023. Please visit her website: https://www.hannahelizabethking.com/ as well as her beautfiul Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/hannahbeeking/

Today I'm talking about nutritional supplements and why I think we need them. I offer up my foundational basics, some that I alternate in and out, and some old friends that are always helpful when life knocks me down and I need to get back up again. 

We superwomen tend to put our friendships on the back burner when times get tough. But science shows us that our very lives depend on making time for the magic of oxytocin + estrogen that happens when we hang with our Girls. 

Today I am joined by burlesque dancer and instructor Diana Blau whose work teaches and inspires women to grow their confidence and body love through twerking, grinding, striptease, and radical self love.

Coming back from a small hiatus of autoimmune flare-up, we talk about Hashimoto's thyroiditis, some symptoms and causes and then look at autoimmune disease from a Self (with a capital S) perspective.

Coming out of a massive autoimmune flare up as well as a back injury, all during a rude and uncomfortable Venus Retrograde, I find my Self without the spoons to navigate biochemistry. Here is a rambling vent on being fiercely and profoundly self-absorbed. 

Also, F-bomb alert! Proceed with caution!
