What if we can become recovered people pleasers and use the very skills we learned to survive to become extraordinary space-holders?

Today we're exploring the power of the attunement, empathy and regulation skills so many of us learned as young girls, and how those same skills can become the foundation of transformational leadership when we stop abandoning ourselves inside them.

Today on Wild Flow, I'm joined by Leilani Garcia, speaker, retreat facilitator and creator of The Artful Alchemist and The Remembrance Method™ – an integrative approach that weaves together nervous system regulation, subconscious transformation and embodied leadership.

Drawing on nearly two decades of creating executive and transformational experiences, Leilani helps individuals and organisations cultivate greater resilience, authenticity and purpose.

But before this became her work, Leilani experienced a profound awakening that led her to leave an abusive marriage and discover she had Celiac disease. What followed was a familiar path for many women listening – a season of unraveling, healing, and moving through multiple deaths and rebirths that ultimately brought her back to herself, her love of life, and her priestess path.

Together, we explore the hidden gifts inside people pleasing, what happens when your body has spent years in protection mode, and the sacred process of returning to yourself after seasons of rupture, illness, divorce and profound change.

We talk about nervous system safety, the sacred pause, and why so many women learn to read a room long before they ever learn to read themselves.

This conversation is ultimately about remembrance. About who we become when we stop abandoning ourselves, soften our grip on old identities, and begin leading not from fear or conditioning, but from presence, truth and deep inner safety.

I think so many of you are going to recognise yourself in this one.

We’re exploring fertility as body literacy, ancestral wisdom, womb sovereignty, lineage memory and the creative intelligence that lives inside the female body.

Chanana McGarry of Womb Literacy brings a powerful lens to this conversation through her work with natural fertility and her African lineage, and I’m especially excited to explore what happens when womb wisdom is remembered not as something new, but as something ancient, sacred and deeply needed in our modern world.

My guest Chanana is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator. After two unplanned pregnancies and over a decade of research, she teaches women to prevent pregnancy naturally with 99.6% effective, hormone and guesswork free contraception. As a direct descendant of the Mujaji Rain Queens of Southern Africa, she weaves together science with ancestral feminine wisdom, making her perspective unique in the natural birth control and holistic women’s health space.

We're hitting on:

How both Chanana and I were deeply initiated into body sovereignty and womb wisdom by our unplanned pregnancies

Ancestral wisdom as remembered - not newly learnt knowledge - and how Chanana's lineage from Southern Africa taught their daughters to read their cervical fluid as a fertile sign.

When you don't trust natural fertility, Chanana explains how scientific evidence backs up the effectiveness of the symptom-thermal method for contraception, and how body literacy helps us advocate in medical system not trained in cycle awareness

How Chanana teaches her daughter natural fertility to give her informed consent, and how she's taught her son to respect menstruation, and tend to her during her bleed.

 This is SUCH a juicy conversation bridging modern science with ancestral wisdom. It's not about telling every woman what birth control choice she should make. It is about asking whether women have ever truly been given the full picture. It is about body literacy, informed consent, ancestral wisdom, reproductive sovereignty, and the right to understand the language of our own fertility.

We live in a world obsessed with speed.

Faster healing, faster success, faster answers and faster transformation.

But what if the very thing you're trying to rush through is the season shaping you to hold what comes next?

In this Winter Solstice episode, Charlotte weaves together the myth of Cerridwen's cauldron of wisdom, her reflections after leading Solstice Temple, and the unexpected lessons she's learned through three years of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

Together they point to one powerful truth:

Just because you desire something doesn't mean you've become the woman who can hold it.

In this episode, we explore:

This episode also includes a guided reflection and journal prompts to help you explore the season you're currently in and what it may be preparing you for.

The wisdom isn't waiting on the other side of this season, perhaps the wisdom is this season.

A year and a day.
A season at a time.
A spiral at a time.

So many sacred space-holders, healers, coaches, facilitators and mystics have built businesses where their income is directly tied to their own time, energy and live presence. And while this work is often deeply transformational, eventually many women reach the same threshold:

“I can’t keep holding more.”

In this episode, I explore the hidden business model pattern affecting so many sacred women — where growth itself begins to feel exhausting because the business depends entirely on the practitioner’s nervous system, capacity and energetic output.

 If you’ve been feeling the tension between wanting to expand your impact… while knowing your body, nervous system and capacity cannot simply keep holding more live work — this conversation is for you.

If this episode resonated, share it with a sister, leave a review, or send me a message to let me know what landed most deeply for you.

What if the thing stopping your expansion is not only fear, trauma, or self-doubt… …but the parts of yourself you secretly know are powerful? 

In this deeply layered episode, Charlotte explores the concept of the *golden shadow* — the radiant parts of ourselves we learned were unsafe to embody fully. 

Your leadership, your eros, your beauty. Your authority, your creativity. Your sacredness. Your desire to be deeply seen. 

This conversation weaves together depth psychology, feminine leadership, shadow work, soul work, embodiment, Temple, and the myth of Inanna to explore why sacred women can become more comfortable identifying with their wounds than with their magnificence.

What if midlife isn’t a breakdown… but a turning point?

I'm joined by nutritionist and women’s health coach Annie Gaudreault to explore the deeper reality of midlife - beyond symptoms, into identity, truth, and transformation.

Together, we unpack why so many women feel like they no longer recognise themselves, how the body begins to speak more clearly during this phase, and why this season can be an opportunity to release people-pleasing, reconnect with your values, and step into a more aligned way of living.

This is a conversation about listening, not fixing - and meeting midlife as an invitation into clarity, self-trust, and renewal. In this episode, we explore:

What if Autumn Equinox is not just a seasonal shift, but a real threshold into descent? In this episode of Wild Flow, Charlotte explores the Southern Hemisphere Autumn Equinox (21st March) as the turning point into the dark half of the year, and why so many women feel that call in the body and psyche before they can fully name it.

This is a conversation about descent, shadow, discernment, and the importance of having a map. Charlotte speaks to the sacred space-holders, coaches, healers, priestesses and facilitators who are often holding so much for others, yet may be tempted to override their own inner turning.

She weaves together cyclical wisdom, the seasonal threshold of autumn, the myth of Inanna, the exiled feminine, leadership, collective fear, and the basic skills that help us stay close to what is true when the ground begins to shift.

In this episode, Charlotte explores:

This episode is a reminder that descent is not punishment. It is a return. To truth, to alignment, to your centre. And when we know how to walk it, the dark becomes a place of truth - not something to fear.

Charlotte also shares that she will be opening the Inanna journey in the second half of April - an online experience held through the Southern Hemisphere autumn and winter months for women ready to meet descent as initiation.

There is a direct line between how you experienced your first initiation and how you lead today. Menarche is not just a biological event — it is a rite of passage - and when that rite is unmarked, minimised, or shamed, it quietly shapes how a woman:

In this episode, Charlotte explores:

From first blood to the underworld, this episode explores how women learn to consciously cross thresholds - or are denied the opportunity and kept separate from our power - and how you can reclaim your power now.

I turned 40 during the year of the snake - and now as we welcome First Horse on this new moon eclipse - we're reminded to trust our body's wisdom, and cyclical rhythm, as the world starts speeding up

Last year I held an in-person Inanna descent and rising Temple journey for sacred women's soul work — and little did I know snake medicine would guide my own descent personally - and as a feminine leader.

This year of Snake has not been about speed. It has been about regeneration. About shedding identities, obligations, and patterns that no longer fit.

In this episode, I speak to:

This conversation is for coaches, healers, priestesses, facilitators, and women leading soul work who feel the edge of expansion — but know that expansion must be held differently now.

As we move from Snake into Fire Horse, the invitation is not to forget Snake's initiations. It is to rise without abandoning your true wild self within.

What if we stopped waiting for a girl’s first period to start the conversation?

In today’s episode of Wild Flow, I’m diving into why our daughters and the girls in our lives—deserve more than just a“talk” about periods at the last minute. They deserve a sacred rite of passage, and they deserve it before they bleed.

This episode is an invitation to remember the power of menstrual education not just as information—but as initiation. We’ll explore the deeper purpose behind First Moon Circles®, how reclaiming ritual at menarche can ripple generational healing outward and upward, and why menstrual empowerment is leadership in action.

Whether you're a mother, teacher, mentor, or a woman who remembers how it felt to go through puberty alone—this is for you.

Because it’s never too early to begin healing. And the younger we begin, the deeper the roots grow.
