In this episode, I explore the quiet unraveling of traditional ambition through the lens of feminine healing. As I’ve deepened into this path, I’ve found myself questioning the version of success I once chased — the one built on constant striving, productivity, and external validation.

Together, we’ll reflect on what happens when we begin to source our worth from within rather than from our achievements. What does ambition look like when it’s rooted in the feminine? Can we still be driven — but in a way that honors softness, slowness, and soul?

This conversation is an invitation to reimagine ambition as something cyclical, intuitive, and deeply embodied — not something to burn out for, but something to feel into.

In this tender chapter, I’m sharing from the heart about those seasons when everything seems to fall apart — when we lose who we thought we were, and the path ahead goes dark.

We’ll explore the dark night of the soul, the Tower card in Tarot, and what it means to move through ego death, not with fear, but with reverence. These moments aren’t failures — they’re sacred invitations to soften, surrender, and root into something deeper.

✨ If you're moving through your own unraveling, you don’t have to do it alone. Inside Soul Shala, you’ll find guided practices, gentle support, and a circle of women walking this path too.

Welcome to the very first chapter of The Rooted Feminine. In this opening episode, I’m sharing from the heart — what this podcast is all about, what it means to live a rooted feminine life, and a bit about my own journey that led me here.

We’ll talk about why so many of us feel disconnected, how we’ve been taught to seek answers outside ourselves, and why rooting — into the body, the earth, and our own inner wisdom — is such powerful healing.

I also share how the book If Women Rose Rooted by Sharon Blackie helped put words to something I was already beginning to feel: that there’s another way to live. A slower, softer, deeper way.
