This Fall I participated in a weekly new parent-baby group in Sebastopol, CA with Kerry Ingram. I met Kerry years ago when she found one of my self-care guide downloads and invited me to be a wise woman to visit her mom and baby groups. I remember thinking I would love to join something like that to meet other mothers and babies if I ever had a child one day… and about six years later it happened!

Kerry has been supporting new mothers, babies and families for the past decade in CA and now is sharing her curriculum to create a ripple effect of sharing more of these nourishing postpartum groups around the world.

Care for the next generation really does start with the mother, and the more we can surround families with support in early postpartum the easier it will be to interrupt harmful narratives and create networks of love, care and support when we need it most.

In this episode we discussed:

• Kerry's experience postpartum: the surprises, challenges and ways she found the support she needed

• How community support impacts early parenting and is culture-making by creating space to see and interrupt harmful narratives

• How to be a village tender and step into leadership for new parents in your community

• The "Early Parenting Villains" and how these systems, for example, 'consumerism' 'diet culture' or 'patriarchy' come up so often in new motherhood, how to identify them and ways to shift our relationship with them

• Self-care in postpartum, asking for help and building community

Kerry is a parent (both biological and foster), an early childhood educator (20 years), a postpartum doula, with additional education in women and gender studies (SUNY Oswego), and maternal mental health care (PSI).

"The objects we have in our house are incredibly emotionally charged. The things we buy to numb ourselves or fit in, they can make us feel stagnant or obligated and we bring that energy into our home."

One of my secret loves is home decoration. Last summer I went through a huge purge after reading the Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. It brought me such a sense of peace in my home that I actually had the women in my program The Sovereign Circle go through the exercise too! 

It was a joy to sit down with Maggie Minor of Maggie Minor Designs in the latest RWL podcast episode to discuss the deeper emotional layers that are involved in the decluttering process. She shares how we need to address the void that comes when decluttering and invites us to ask, "How do we avoid just filling it up again with stuff?" Maggie shares her experiences of sitting with the discomfort of growing, evolving and letting go of the need to fill the void with more stuff to create space for greater joy and inner and outer alignment. She also shares about her recent big leap moving across the country, listening to her body's wisdom, and the time she spent in the Peace Corps. I hope you enjoy the show!

"Our homes are a three-dimensional vision board. So if we design our space to be in alignment with what we want, we are gonna get their quicker. It's going to create flow in our lives."

In this episode we discussed:

• How joining the Peace Corps and living in Bulgaria informed Maggie's life today
• Life transitions and taking a leap ~ listening to inner guidance to move across the country
• An exercise to connect with your inner knowing about making a a hard decision
• The emotional cleanse that comes with decluttering your life
• Resolving emotions and stories we carry with forgiveness work
• Curating your space to increase focus and a positive mindset
• How home decor can improve your mood and the areas of your house to focus on first
• Her book about being a humanitarian worker
• Sharing a space with someone else and how to navigate designing the home together

"You always know the right answer…If we align ourselves with our bodies, and let the fear leave our bodies, the answers will appear. They are not always the answers we want, but they are always the right answers."

In her former life, Maggie spent almost 15 years traveling the world…as a graduate student in Australia, a student and backpacker in Europe, a Peace Corps volunteer in Bulgaria and a humanitarian worker working in Asia and Africa.

After three years of making very little money in her business as a psychic, Anastasia got serious about learning business strategy and putting herself out there. 

She had an idea: to have conscious conversations with women about their relationship to money. She was genuinely curious about how these women she admired got to where they were. How did they make it all work?

 So she launched her  first summit, "Worthy" and within a few weeks her business catapulted. 

The clients started coming in more than ever before. She announced a mentorship program and watched her income skyrocket. 

But it wasn't all easy. There were upper limits Anastasia had to learn to navigate. Then there was some serious burnout she had to recover from.  

But along the way, she discovered what brought her true joy...

From Anastasia:

"My whole perspective of life has changed because as I gained success financially in my career and I finally had this total freedom that I craved for so long,  I realized that I didn't feel that different.

That has catapulted me into finding out what really gives me joy. What really gives me peace. What really gives me freedom. And love and connection.

I think if I didn't have that success I would always be chasing and never be able to face the part of myself that was still in a lot of pain and had all these desires other than money and career."

In this episode we discussed:

• How Anastasia first discovered her psychic abilities (and how you can too)
• Anastasia's story of selling everything she owned to start fresh and up-level her life and business
• Doing business your own way and finding balance with feminine flow in business (aka avoiding burnout)
• Anastasia's story of leading her first summit, Worthy. How it catapulted her business, brought her to new upper limits and what she learned about herself and how  she wants to do business along the way
• Beyond money and success, what Anastasia learned brought her  true joy
• The throat chakra - how Anastasia has honored her voice
• Anastasia's growth edge and how she is showing up to face her fears
• The self-worth demon Anastasia still works with and how she keeps showing up despite her fears

Enjoy the episode :) 

With love,
