I recently forgot my headphones during a dentist appointment and wound up receiving so many lessons from Love about sensitivity, control, effort, and the unconscious ways we over-function to be helpful or "good."

Whether you're a fellow highly sensitive person, a recovering perfectionist, or someone walking through a threshold moment in life, this episode will help you soften and listen more deeply to your own wisdom.

Press play to learn about:

• Asking for what you need and not tolerating unnecessary discomfort
• The difference between being high maintenance and highly sensitive
• Why the easier and more enjoyable something is makes it even MORE effective and efficient
• Why we over-function and posture ourselves to make things easier for others, and what softening really looks like
• My favorite ways to invite more gentleness, intuition, and self-trust into your daily life

Mentioned in this episode:

• Join the Wild Wellness Women’s Circle: Try it for one month and experience the power of live connection and seasonal reflection

• Book a $55 Oracle Card & Pendulum Reading: Receive intuitive guidance, a mini coaching session + self-paced bonuses to support your clarity and next steps

I first connected with Lori on Instagram, and what started with a few voice notes quickly turned into coffee dates, shared women’s circles, and now our very first collaboration! Lori and I share a deep love for all things “woo,” natural living, and holistic approaches to caring for our bodies and spirits.

Lori is the owner of WILDFLOWER, an organic hair studio in Virginia Beach and the first holistic hair business in Hampton Roads. Beyond her career as a stylist, she’s also a trained healer with a wide range of modalities under her belt. She leads local trainings at the Farley Center, an addiction treatment center, where she incorporates EFT (emotional freedom technique), breathwork, and visualization to support transformation.

In this episode, Lori guides us through these same practices to help you rewrite your past, present, and future and begin manifesting your desires with greater clarity.

Whether you’re brand new to these tools or looking to deepen your practice, this conversation is a glimpse into what we explore inside the Wild Wellness Women’s Circle membership.

A couple of years ago, I did my yoga teacher training, and WOW I had NO IDEA how much there was to yoga!

Yoga is so much more than just the poses! In our culture, yoga is often reduced to stretching and fitness, but its true roots run deep. It's actually a complete system portal for self-discovery, balance, and transformation.

Through a fun conversation with experienced yoga instructor Abby Boyd (who’s also a member of our women’s circle!), we’re diving into ancient philosophies, sacred geometry, energy systems, and personalized practices that can give you a whole new connection to yoga.

In this free sample of the Wild Wellness Women's Circle, you'll hear about...

✨ The 8 limbs of Yoga—a complete system for living a yogic life

✨ The meaning of AUM (OHM)

✨ The sacred geometry behind yoga poses

✨ Ayurveda, chakras, the Nature of Reality (no big deal) and lots of other fun woo woo stuff

✨ Q&A and reflections from our women's circle members that will help you think of your own ways to integrate these teachings into your life✨ What's coming up in the women's circle to look forward to!Whether you practice yoga daily or have never stepped on a mat, you’ll love this episode!

Women literally have less time than anyone else. Here's how we reclaim it.

You’re not alone.

So many of us are feeling tired.

Burned out.

Behind.

Like there’s never enough time for what really matters.

But what if that’s not your fault?

What if the way we experience time has been shaped—and even stolen—by systems that were never made with our wellness in mind?

Ixchel Lunar is an Indigenous Time Ecologist known for their work in decolonizing Time.

They help people who are burned out, exhausted and tired of feeling like you never have enough time, like life is rapidly passing you by — to break free from the capitalist grind to realign your energy, reclaim your time and flow, and reconnect with your ancestors and land you call home.

In this episode, we talk about:

• How colonial systems shaped our concept of time

• The 5 ways time gets stolen, divided, outsourced, commodified, and foreclosed

• Why women literally have less time—and how we reclaim it

• What Spiral Time is (and how it feels like coming home)

• How to reconnect with true time through Nature, the senses, and ancestral rhythms

Lammas, also known as Lughnasadh, is a festival celebrated on August 1st, marking the halfway point between Summer Solstice and Fall Equinox, and the first harvest of the year in the Wheel of the Year.

It's a time where Nature is modeling for us the themes of gratitude and abundance, harvest and reaping, transformation and sacrifice, community and sharing, and reflection and planning.

Did you know?

The word Lammas actually comes from the Old English "loaf mass." People baked a loaf of bread from their first harvest and brought it to the church to be blessed. This bread was believed to have healing and protective properties, so they placed it in the corners of their homes and barns for protection and blessing.

Even though the exact date is August 1, we can celebrate this whole season.

In this episode, you'll learn...

• the origins, history, and symbolism of Lammas
• what Nature is modeling for us physically, spiritually, and energetically, and how we can align
• 11 easy and enjoyable ways to celebrate Lammas
• 8 journal prompt themes to help you reflect and process the inspiration of this season
