Wild Soul Medicine Radio w/ Jody England

Greetings, Sister,

I have a bone to pick. Well, several actually.

Chalk it up to Mercury going retro again, starting my moon, three hours of last minute dress shopping last night with an almost 13 year old - stressing over a big debut today, and a schedule packed tighter than a sausage this week…

But I’m just not feeling conciliatory.

EVERY thing is on my list (and on my nerves).

Both my Great Mother and my Warrioress wounds were out to play yesterday and I decided not to tame them.

There is always Medicine inside of the ruffled feathers and the perturbances that show themselves. 

And I used it all to IN-form our Wild Soul Medicine this week. 


Being a Whole person requires that we embrace our messiness and our discomforts. It is how we grow and also how we come to know ourselves on the deepest levels.

This week, my husband and I had some realizations that our conscious parenting has created a huge sense of entitlement in our newly teenage children. Because we have always tended their feelings and made sure they were met in every imaginable way, they aren’t accustomed to being uncomfortable. 

At all. 

We have decided to begin to allow more room for them to explore those spaces of not getting what they want, so they can build a skill set that supports them owning their own power in creating what they desire - rather than having it handed to them.

I know my children aren’t the only ones. This sense of entitlement is rampant in our young ones.

There has never been such a pampered generation.

I see it in the uber political correctness infecting college campuses - where twenty somethings who have been raised with the intention of good self esteem and happy, healthy attachments are now hyper focused on boycotting comedians who might offend their delicate sensibilities or petitioning to fire a professor who referenced a classic piece of literature that happens to contain a scene of violence that had them feeling like they were personally violated.

Conscious Hitlers running around policing the very thing they think they are a stand for.

And those of us farther down the life path are not immune either.

There are many sneaky and insidious ways that our motivation to avoid pain and take a more “conscious” route can actually lead to bypassing the very things that would support our growth.

Last week, one of my WSMR listeners wrote an impassioned letter in response to my mentioning that my Guidance has tasked me with tripling my business in the next year. 

She asked me to transparently offer an accounting of where I spend my money and on what and to explain exactly how me enriching myself enriches others on the planet.

She had much to say about shadowy feminine spiritual leaders and the potential pitfalls of haves and have-nots in our consciousness meets capitalism conundrum.

As you might imagine... I have LOTS to say about this.

Join me this week as I talk about Spiritual Entitlement, mothering ungrateful teenagers, and whether or not I will be releasing my tax returns for all the world to see.

Highlights to listen for:
(12:40) The Gift of Discomfort

(18:15) When does it get easier?
 
(26:10) A Confession of Doubt
 
(34:35) The manipulation of ‘deserving’
 
(43:00) When we thrive, who else thrives?
 
(51:10) “The paradigm of us sacrificing, as women, to try to save a doomed humanity, is over.”

POTENT DOSE (if you only have a few minutes):


I had fun with this one.

And her name is PLEASURE. She is also known as DESIRE and sometimes as Wild Soul Woman.

She was last seen several millennia ago before the patriarchy took over and forced her to tuck herself in, turn herself down, and throw away her forwarding address.

But she has once again been showing herself around these parts, and it’s time We (re)made her acquaintance.


On Wild Soul Medicine Radio today, She will be my co-host.

With my kids out the door for their first day of school, this pre-menopausal, kundalini-rising, HOT Soul Mama is following her Turn On.

I am in the midst of deep internal compass realignment - away from pain and toward Pleasure.

Not the “how to be orgasmic in your business so you can get more clients” type of pleasure, but the head turning, grab you by the chin and don’t move a muscle until you’ve GOTTEN this - type of Pleasure.

I’m talking quantum supernova power and creativity fueled by the most potent superconductor in the Universe.

Being finely attuned to the subtleties and nuances of Pleasure as Pathfinder as We bring the sleeping parts of Our sensuality back online.

I have much to share with you.

• Insights about why and how We get disconnected from the vitality of Our Life Force
• Where We go to get it back
• What a mid-life “crisis” really is and why I am STOKED to be having one
• How to navigate a life (and business) sitting in the center of the most forbidden energy ever unleashed on planet earth

We power up today at 9:00 am PT/Noon ET.

(Make sure to refresh your page at the top of the hour to listen live.)

With Pleasure,
Jody

Greetings, Dear One,

I awoke this morning from an exquisite dream. I am often visited in dreams by celebrities, shamans, healers, students, sisters and all manner of Beings. They are as real as my waking life and filled with mystery and Magik.

After the dream, I feel as if I have actually spent time with the person I was communing with or learning from in my dream. It is a deeply spiritual and potent experience that I am ever grateful for.

Last night, a celebrity (who is a very well known rock star) arrived in Dreamscape and we laid together and shared an intimate experience of Solace. He was able to rest into a space where no one wanted anything from him and he could just be known and comforted at the deepest Soul level.

I was honored to provide it for him. It’s how I Love.

I am still in-joying it today as I feel into the contrast of the massive changes flowing through our planet, and the seismic shifts occurring within and through your own ecosystems.


It’s a tall order that we’ve signed up for, and I have no doubts about our capacity to do what is being Asked of Us.

We will continue to show up, rise up, and bow down to the evolutionary pulse echoing in our cells.

I know Us.

And… I love Us.

In the midst of our willingness to Die Another Day and throw ourselves on the Pyre of Becoming over and over again, we can sometimes forget that we are also allowed to rest in the midst of the ordeal of metamorphosis.

While our transfiguration is inevitable, our suffering is not.

At times, our Soul requires consolation and rest.

A relief from the buffeting of the winds of change. Comfort from the sorrow of so much loss and leaving.

Quantum Solace.

Resting in the natural Great Peace.

I have had some Divine experiences recently of being taken to this place of Utter Stillness.

Basking in the miracle that is the Vastness of Nothing and Everything.

On Wild Soul Medicine Radio today, I’ll take you there.

Come lay yourself down and take pause with me.

Let yourself be comforted, known, and loved.

Here. Now.

I am lighting a candle just for you.

Your weariness points you toward a great Gift.

Come.

Greetings, Sister,

It’s Wild Soul Medicine Radio time again and I am feeling saucy.

There is a new voice forming itself inside of me. It feels more fun, more provocative, more free, more Wild Soul than before… and also fledgling in a way. Like a teenager whose voice is evolving into new octaves of sound and power. It cracks unexpectedly and a little awkwardly one moment and offers new levels of depth and insight the next.


I am playing with it. Learning to dance and weave in it.

It REALLY wants to have the mic today, but my more serious, genius, competent side is more than a little wary.

She’s afraid you won’t come, won’t get it, won’t be moved by it.

But I desire Liberation for myself. I want to have the freedom to talk about things I don’t have figured out yet - to simply raise a topic and leave it unwrapped and unfolding in the center of the circle. I want to be able to traverse many topics in one episode, and make fun of myself and things that need made fun of.

So I’m trotting Her out today. (Or rather… SHE is trotting me out.)

We’re going to talk about some things that have my attention.

I don’t know if we have a point, that remains to be Seen.

But in service of you choosing to join me or not, some of the things that have my attention are:
The Olympics
Where the heck our Guides are right now
The Divine Feminine and Hillary Clinton
Donald Trump… (seriously, I can’t look away.)
I make no promises about the Medicine here for you. I’ll let you be the arbiter of that.

I’m just going to show up and have some fun.

We’ll see where that takes Us.

Greetings, Sister,

Today we arrive on the shores of our One Hundredth Wild Soul Medicine Episode.

I can hardly fathom the depth and breadth of the journey we have been on these last 2+ years together.

From the first tremulous transmission, to epic betrayals, potentially career-ending risks, and the most intimate sharing of my fears, inquiries, and breakthroughs -- The pain, triumph, and intensity of a life devoted to spiritual transformation has been honored and celebrated here.

Always an invitation for you, Dear One, to come closer to the fire of your own Becoming.

To stand together in the crucible of Untaming as we bolster our courage to grieve, fight, play, and love another day.

So today, we Celebrate. And Honor. And Reflect.

I’ll be sharing some of my most beloved moments from past shows:
The hardest show for me to do
The one I was most scared about
My favorite episode of all time
Most listened to
Most controversial
Crazy behind the scenes moments you DIDN’T hear about
Whatever else Spirit compels me to reveal!
Annnnnnd…. a special surprise guest will be joining me. I still can’t believe he said yes, as he is definitely happiest as a Behind the Scenes guy, but I have talked my dear husband, Lance, into Being with Us on the show today.

Every single week he is holding the edges of this container. Witnessing, grounding, and bringing the Divine Masculine to this Wild Soul party.

He is coming today to lend his perspective on the Medicine he has experienced from the inside of this Unfolding.

I adore this man and couldn’t do what I do without him.

I am delighted to finally get to share him with all of you.

Our drum beat calls Us to circle at 9:00 am PT/Noon ET today.

Adorn your Wild Soul in Essence and Join Us there.

Ai yi yi yi yi yi YAH!


P.S. Invite your Sisters to share in the celebration. Like, Comment, and Share this post for a chance to be gifted the entire Soulful Money Medicine course.

I hope you are basking in the sweetness of this full moon energy. She feels gentle and affirming to my system - softly, sweetly loving Us right where we are.

It’s a beautiful thing.

So much is being dissolved right now. Non-Essential parts being stripped and melted away while tender, fresh elements of Being are growing themselves more sturdy and solid.

I am being Made New in every moment. I have no idea who I will be tomorrow - let alone next week or next year.

Letting go of so many things I thought I was. Questioning the pieces of identity that have become so familiar, I didn’t even notice they were there…

Until they weren’t anymore.

It is a vulnerable and curious time.

I spoke about it last week on the show as I burned my own house down once again.

It felt good. Liberating. Had to be done.

Calling myself out on the places I’d been drinking my own Kool-Aid as an invitation to others to do the same.

Opening a door for Us to meet as Pure Souls - outside the constructs that have defined us.

But… as it turns out, Our egos had other plans.

After the show, mine started congratulating me on a Job Well Done.

An old friend’s ego whispered in her ear that she was Better Than Jody and her OBVIOUSLY misguided past shows (and sent me a “love” note to celebrate my “return.”)

Some of my students went into deep questioning about why they had been drinking my Kool-Aid - which I had just said - is a Very Bad Idea.

And some dear listeners who resonated with the message brought their egos to the party to high five me for FINALLY getting what they have already known for ages.

Then MY ego went into fight. And retreat. And defense. And defeat.

(It’s OK. Really.)

That’s what egos DO.

We ALL have them. And we all have shame about them - whether consciously or subconsciously.

And it’s time we start talking about them. Openly.

With so much love and compassion and willingness to be with them in all the ways they show up and all the ways that they run our lives.

No one has to be right OR wrong.

It just IS.

Every time I challenge and stretch, confront and caress, study and surrender to my ego, I make room for more Soul.

Soul + Ego = Wholeness.

THIS is the game we are playing. There is no way to “get rid of” your ego. The part of you that would have you try to do that is actually your ego.

And subscribing to the belief that talking about ego means you have to fix something or be wrong all the time… Also Ego.

The simple Truth is: the trickiest part of this human walk is learning this Soul/Ego two step.

It’s not about transcending your ego, rising above it or outgrowing it. It is about inviting your Wild Soul all the way down and in with it.

On Wild Soul Medicine Radio today I’m leading a guided tour of this uniquely human construct.

We are pressing the edges, shining a light, and offering courageous hearts to Our epic exploration.

It’s a little like going to the dentist… Nobody wants to do it, but it’s gotta be done.

I’ll meet you there.

Toes in the mud. Moon on my face.

Greetings, Sister,

I’m feeling saucy today. A mix of humor, irreverence, agitation, and contentment that might actually be boredom? It’s an interesting cocktail that has me ready to stir the pot a bit.

I am tired of writing about controversies and highly intense evolutionary cosmology. I don’t feel up to imparting timely and important wisdom that you must use or listen to in order to be or do something you already aren’t.



This past week I’ve had a huge dose of wondering (knowing) that I’m actually totally full of shit.

It’s ok. So are you.

We all are.

It is so tempting to fall into the trap of believing we are up to something that really matters.

To buy our own rhetoric and jump on the bandwagon of transformation, or Black Lives Matter, or All Lives Matter, or whatever other righteous cause our ego can hitch itself up to.

It’s a curious dance to play with our Becoming in this way.

On the one hand, to allow ourselves some self esteem and self love. To rest in the knowing that we are up to something good and worthwhile as we take our tremulous steps on the Path toward Wholeness.

But on the other, our ego can not ever be counted out. Even the most pure intentions and the most carefully tended courses can be corrupted by the stickiness of Drinking Our Own Kool-Aid.

It’s both frightening and simultaneously totally Ridiculous.

We have to stop taking ourselves so seriously.

Irreverence about our irreverence is perhaps the best we can do.

If there is anything to do at all.

I invite you to join me on Wild Soul Medicine Radio today as I share the funny, painful, real, inconsequential, monumental things I’ve been entertaining lately and we play in the Cosmic Joke of it all.

This one's a game changer. And you MUST be there to find out the Truth.

(Or not. It’s maybe not a big deal at all.)

I told you… it’s better if you DON’T Drink the Kool-Aid.

Mine or anyone’s.

The last couple of days have been intense for me. I had been in a beautiful space of rest, and expansion. Reveling in the coming of Summer and feeling resourced on all levels.

And then Monday morning, I happened to have the TV on when they broke in to announce the Supreme Court’s ruling to overturn the restrictive anti-abortion regulations that had been imposed by the Texas legislature.

I admit, I had not been paying attention.

It has been painful to watch the “war on women” rage through our planet as liberties we have enjoyed for decades have been eroded, and we have been reduced to picketing to restore partial rights as we make our way back to the level of sovereignty we recently took for granted.

I had grown tired of watching panels of white men legislate our yoni’s and I was unclear about right action or even any action that didn’t feel utterly futile… so I had dropped out of the conversation.

And then, this curious synchronicity of events presented itself and grabbed my Full Attention.

It’s been burning through my system day and night since then.

Rage and injustice. Hopelessness and despair. Grief and loss. Hope and Courage.

I’ve been feeling it all, and listening deeply.

Goddess, what is being asked of me?

I am willing. Speak louder, please.

Directly into my burning heart.

What would you have us do?

And she did. And she is.

We are being called out of our slumber to move forward in our seat.

Literally.

In Divine Feminine alignment we are being compelled to bring our full hearts and consciousness to the task at hand.

We’ve been resting up. Making ourselves ready for potent change to actually take place.

We’re about to get Real with the Free.

The patriarchy is insidious in its control and manipulation. It is a formidable force to be reckoned with.

And We are just the Ones to do it.

Our yoni’s are not the problem. Our desires are not the problem.

The fear of them, the desire to control them, to legislate and enslave them… is the problem.

On Wild Soul Medicine today, we put all eyes and hearts on point.

This is a Pro-Life campaign by Order of the Goddess.

It is time to reclaim our words, our bodies, and our Souls in service of the One.

Your Presence is required.

Join me as we sit in the rekindling of our impassioned hearts, remembering what is True and making our way Together.

I’ll meet you there.

Happy Solstice week! Here in the Northern Hemisphere we have officially moved into summer, while our Sisters in the Southern Hemisphere move into winter. The yin and yang of the planet balancing in harmonic perfection.

It feels like all of Creation is dancing in reverence and delight.

I celebrated Solstice deep in four days of ceremony with a group of my closest students. Communing with nature, soaking in the light, and resetting our Spirits - we sang, drummed, cried, laughed, and circled out under the moon - loving each other and Returning to what is True.

I am refreshed and renewed.

And so looking forward to continuing to bask in the Light with you this week on Wild Soul Medicine Radio.


A WSMR first… as we welcomed the beloved, Elijah Ray - our inaugural male guest to share Medicine with Our Tribe.

Elijah is a Soul Brother of mine and one of the most deeply authentic, Divinely Masculine beings I have experienced.

He is a surfer of love committed to living as Essence and is breathtakingly alive in shining Presence and the creativity of Spirit.

I had the privilege of hanging out with him for several days on my recent trip to Kauai and received one of the most profound healings I’ve experienced during a Sound Light Session he created for me.

Elijah is a prodigious vocalist, composer, multi-instrumentalist, and recording artist who leads the Band of Light. Both mystical and raw, his charisma and musical prowess draw his audience into life’s nectar--spiritual, sexy, sweaty, gritty, and ecstatic.

His music is being heralded as the “soundtrack of the awakening.”

Many of you are already fans of this gentle genius. For the rest of you, I am thrumming with excitement to get to introduce you to this Beautiful One.

Join us this week and experience our depth-filled conversation about music, energy, love, and living the New Earth now.

It’s Wild Soul time.

Let’s Band Together.

I can barely believe it has only been a week since we were last together. To say a lot has transpired feels like the understatement of the century.

I am a totally different woman. Fundamentally reconfigured on every level.

The Goddess asked me to give myself fully over to Her. To Surrender completely to service of The Path.

And I responded with Sacred Yes.

Acknowledging Deep Truths to my Self and my husband, after more than a decade of suppression, I came clean about What is So for me.

Liberating myself from the compromise of separation from my Turn On, I felt a resounding peace in my system.

The morning after, as I was still feeling the immensity of the shift in my reality, the Goddess came to me and spoke directly into my heart.


Next You Must Shave Your Head.

With heart pounding and tears flowing, I whispered a willing, Yes.

The story of all that transpired from that moment to this is what I will be sharing onWild Soul Medicine Radio today.

Filled with breathtaking beauty, the True Love of Soul Sisters shepherding my transition, humbling reorganizations, unexpected violence, navigating the pain of re-integration and a family in turmoil… it is a study in learning to place my steps where She says and to listen with every fiber of my Being to what is being asked.

While my Soul feels clear and aligned, as you might imagine, my ego has a lot to say about all of this.

I imagine we shall hear from both as we gather today to sift through the Medicine and distill the Truth as it makes itself known.

I’d be honored to feel your Presence there.

It is a tender time. For All of Us.

Let’s gentle our Selves Together as we rest into the Unfolding.
