The Susan Sheehan Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

I have some exciting news for you The Susan Sheehan Podcast is evolving! After an amazing 33 episodes flying solo, with the exception of one wonderful guest, I am inviting ordinary women to share their stories. We will hear personal lived experiences that are shaping women lives.

Women like you and me.

You will hear from women who have gone through life changes and who have changed how they are living because of their experience. It will include everything from love, loss, illness, addiction, body choices, fertility journeys, divorce, adoption, pregnancy loss and much more, changing the course of their life or perspective of life.

The stories will be personal.

They are the stories we are missing.

And I invite you to hear and be heard. To see and been seen.

With Love,

Susan

As humans we have three fundamental emotional needs. In this weeks episode I ponder our way through our need;

To Be Seen

To Be Heard

To Belong

And importantly how we can meet our own needs while accepting that in no one area of our life can they all be met.

Enjoy!

Know Thyself.

How do we get to know ourselves? Why do we want to even want to know ourselves? I discuss five key ways to get to know ourselves in this episode. All gleamed from my own experience. And I also offer a word to the wise - to discern, to ensure you know you have sovereignty to choose, to dive in, be curious, embody it and then discern again what is for you. I hope this offers you some kernel of wisdom and options. Thank you for being here. For listening.

With Love,

Susan

In this weeks episode I merge science, my own experience and the detrimental effect that alcohol has on our brain and hormonal health. It is without judgement, information so that you can know.

I talk about what it does to the brain, how we have memory gaps, more stress, poor sleep and disrupted endocrine system. Which of course shows up in our menstrual cycle, and fertility.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did researching and recording it.

Why is Mary Magdalene rising now? The Gospel of Mary was hidden for centuries. What does it significance mean to all of us, knowing that Mary was an equal discipline. Its huge to all of us, how women are viewed, how we view ourselves and our bodies. I explore this and more in this weeks episode.

With love,

Susan

Have you felt the pull of the full moon when she is asking you to come out and play or feel the slower dark moon energy asking you to move inwards. The moon influences us, especially women, our emotions, and physical energy. This episode is an introduction to the moon cycle and how to connect with her. Enjoy! With Love, Susan

The need and desire to be heard and express ourselves as women is deeply desired and can seem insurmountable. It is possible to find your unique voice with integrity and authenticity. In this weeks episode I share how chanting, Bhakti yoga, sound healing and singing all helped open my Throat chakra and allowed me express myself. As usual there is lots of useful knowledge, experience and stories along the way.

With Love,

Susan

We are all looking for a place to feel loved, to hear kindness and often for certainty and belonging. It can be difficult then when we stand back and see the same dogma that we were moving away from. How do you navigate that? What do you trust? And how to you keep from getting lost again in another system or fixed way of living while also not wanting to go "back" to the old way.

Every single cell and tissue receives it nourishment from the Rasa Dhatu, the first of 7 tissues in every human.

Rasa is responsible for menstruation, lactation and the top layer of our skin. The seven dhatus are nourished one by one, the seventh being our reproductive tissue!

This is a fascinating topic! And if you have an interest or love of your body and Ayurveda then you will love this weeks episode.

Your menstrual cycle will influence what you read, listen to, eat, how you exercise, your appetite for sex, choice of clothes. Everything. And this week I go round the cycle as you change in each season over and over. Listen in to see if you recognise the shifting energies and your own pattern. Have fun listening!

With Love,

Susan
