The Sacred Path of Returning to Self with Paula Mallis
mercredi 14 mai 2025 • Durée 01:40:12
Join Lindsey Akey for a deeply healing and honest conversation with Paula Mallis —spiritual mentor, doula, mother, and founder of WMN Space. Paula shares her story of profound inner transformation: from growing up in North Carolina to building community in Los Angeles, and ultimately finding peace and presence in Ojai, California.
We explore Paula’s journey through sobriety, motherhood, and a near-death experience that radically changed her relationship with time, silence, and the divine. Paula opens up about conscious conception, postpartum care, and how she holds space for women through all forms of birth—whether a baby, a business, or a new version of self.
Lindsey reflects on her transition from city life to Ojai, what it’s meant to be part of Paula’s 9-month mentorship, and the experience of sitting in Paula’s powerful full moon circles—spaces that feel less like a share and more like a sacred counsel.

Healing after a brain event and near-death experience
The power of spiritual psychology and somatic awareness
The evolution of WMN Space and doula work
Conscious motherhood and postpartum support
Community, mentorship, and feminine wisdom
Personal transformation through grief, presence, and prayer
