My conversation is with Molly Eames, MEd. We discuss life lessons and going as fast as your slowest part will move, why we are here, and healing from traumas.

Molly brings over a decade of experience working in sexual health as a trained sex therapist, educator, author and coach. Molly empowers women to start exploring their sexual self through a trauma-informed lens by offering a blend of comprehensive sexuality education and heart-centered soul work. Having studied many modalities (Trauma-Focused CBT, Mindfulness, Somatics, Internal Family Systems, Emotionally-Focused Therapy) and explored holistic alternatives (Breathwork, Reiki II + Energy Work, Psychedelic Therapy, Somatic Movement, Sacred Sexuality), Molly offers clients a wide range of techniques to support their path to Wholeness.

This is the last episode for a moment. I am going to take a break from most things involving a phone and a computer (some) and get down to the business of wandering and wondering. Thank you all for listening and I hope you will stay connected via substack.

Be well, be kind, be love!

Peace!!

This month's conversation is with Dr. Anu French. During our time together we discuss her childhood, being born in India and moving to England and back to India, and how it felt to not belong in both places. A mother of two young girls, we discuss how integrative living and integrative medicine go hand in hand. There are so many ways healing can happen and we discuss how the use of art, music, being an advocate, and being your authentic self can help us grow into ourselves with kindness and grace. To learn more about Dr. Anu French, please check out her website, Facebook, or Instagram.

This month's conversation is with Kristen Coyle. Kristen performs work as a yoga instructor, and somatic bodyworker, and holds space for others to come into their power using their voice and finding ease in their body. During our time, we discuss so many potent topics: examining privilege, layers of fear, intention vs. impact, spiritual bypass, and finding your dharma. This conversation is so potent! So grab a cup of tea and get ready to dive deep with us. 

If you would like to find out more about Kristen, check out her website, Instagram, and her podcast Walking Dharma.

Kristen Coyle, E-RYT 500, is a devoted yoga practitioner, teacher, and somatic bodyworker. She began her journey with yoga 20 years ago and has been dedicated to the yogic path ever since. Kristen has offered classes, workshops, and yoga teacher training at various locales around the world and finds great joy in sharing yoga in a way that is equal parts potent and accessible. She works with folks from all walks of life to assist them in finding comfort and joy within their bodies.

Kristen's classes integrate elements of Dharma (Mittra) Yoga, Astanga, and Vinyasa into dynamic alignment-based, psychically clarifying, lineage-informed journeys. Breathing exercises, chanting, and meditation are woven into her offerings to assist in the transformation process that is yoga.

In 2018 she co-created the Walking Dharma podcast with her partner where she dives into yogic philosophy and how to apply it here/now. She currently lives in Berkeley, CA and when she is not immersed in yoga, can be found hiking, immersing herself in sacred waters, or sitting  mindfully with a cup of jasmine tea watching the birds.

My conversation today is with Jamila Owens-Todd. Jamila Owens-Todd, Naturopathic Doctor has dedicated her life to supporting those in their healing. Our conversation covers her journey to naturopathic medicine, epigenetics, and how natural medicine and science marry, or do they? We discuss how choice impacts our lives even from a very young age. Why failure is a lesson and not actually a failure in the way we have been taught and the importance of creating rituals, boundaries, and taking time for yourself - unapologetically. Toward the end, we discuss her newest adventure in the field of Cannabis Science. 

Jamila's career started out as a Chemist, working in private industry; government, and within the pharmaceutical industry, at a top pharmaceutical company in the Research and Development Department. She then graduated from the four-year, Naturopathic Doctor degree program at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. A Naturopathic Doctor is a teacher first, and Jamila has pledged to educate and provide insight into regaining your innate healing power. Jamila has maintained a strong commitment to science in her practice, as well as to the greater community.

Jamila has blended her own herbal formulas for patients for over fifteen years and has formulated natural products. This led her to her last venture as the Research & Development Manager with a vertically integrated, Medical Cannabis operation.

If you are interested in learning more about Jamila, head over to her website. You can also sign up for the class she mentioned, The Chemistry of Terpenes.

My conversation today is with Satinder. Satinder lives in India - studying, teaching, learning, and growing. In our conversation we discuss his childhood and growing up in the church, worshipping nature, living in India, being curious, and feeling better, younger, and wiser at 52. Admittedly, I had this conversation well after my bedtime, please forgive the struggle I had at times to find my words. Also, Satinder is sitting in a cafe (the only place with internet) so there is some background noise. 

If you want to connect or learn more about Satinder, check out his Facebook or Instagram page. He also recently published his first book, Memoirs of a Spiritually "Incorrect" Type Fellow.
