Today, on the podcast, I am joined by one of my favorite people, Sydni Sands! Sydni and I joke that we are oftentimes too much alike for our own good, but I think it makes for an incredibly rich, soulful and silly conversation. In this episode, we dive into what it means to live from devotion rather than disciple. Syd and I share the many ways we have let go of rigid belief structures and identities in favor of truth and having a full spectrum human experience. Think everything from using shampoo again or enjoying a beer now and then to raw and honest stories of the real life experiences that have changed us. I think you’ll love this one for sacred and silly girlfriend energy.In this episode…00:00 Welcome to Moon Baby Magic Podcast00:39 Embracing Imperfection and Letting Go02:54 Understanding the Cycle and Seasonal Energies04:38 Invitation to a Free Webinar06:12 Deep Dive with Sydni: Letting Go of Control09:49 The Balance Between Devotion and Discipline20:49 The Journey of Letting Go and Embracing Life46:30 Living a Full and Free Life50:11 The Struggle for Uniqueness and Connection52:54 Media Consumption and Personal Choices56:01 Navigating Social Norms and Personal Beliefs59:43 Body Image and Beauty Standards01:05:16 The Role of Scent and Natural Odor01:12:53 Embracing Flexibility in Lifestyle Choices01:24:54 Creativity and Personal Growth01:28:52 Final Reflections and GratitudeA new woman’s story is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Today, on the podcast, we have a sweet and simple episode with Dariya, a woman who has let nature and instinct guide her on the path from Maiden to Mother and more. You’ll hear all about how Dariya went from chronically unwell and being 50lbs overweight to being healthy, vital, and pregnant - and having an easeful pregnancy and postpartum! She shares about her journey with on demand breastfeeding (and the secret to having the best breastmilk), Elimination Communication because it just made physiological sense, and having an easy peasy first postpartum period. Throughout the episode, the theme of being open and available to all of life, even the hard and challenging parts, is woven in to inspire women to embrace their softness and their strength.

Vaginal, womb or yoni steaming may have been popularized by modern wellness influencers, but your ancestors probably sat over a pot of steam when they got their first periods, after giving birth, to support the transition into menopause and for any cycle-related condition that popped up in between.

Today, on the podcast, we have an episode with a truly inspirational woman, Yvonne Stoop. Yvonne is a mother of three and an ecstatic birth mentor. Originally from the Netherlands, Yvonne grew up in an environment where being open about menstruation and sexuality was the norm, which is a stark contrast to the very conservative culture she now lives within in Dubai. In this giggly-Follicular phase conversation we dive into everything from Yvonne’s first bleed to meeting her husband at just 17 years old and her non-conventional path to healing Candida. You’ll hear Yvonne’s vulnerable and beautiful transformation from really grieving her free-spirited travel-obsessed maiden years at the beginning of her first pregnancy all the way to her third Ecstatic free birth. Tune into this conversation to get the answer to the question everyone is asking.- is it really possible to have an orgasmic birth?In this episode…0:00 – Intro.00:44 – Setting the Scene.01:15 – Cyclical Living & Course Announcement02:45 – Podcast Mission & Community05:06 – Guest Introduction: Yvonne Stoop06:04 – Conversation Begins07:04 – Motherhood & Cyclical Living10:00 – First Period Story15:20 – Teen Years & Birth Control18:00 – Candida & Healing25:00 – The Power of Girlfriend Energy32:00 – Birth Mindset & Preparation34:00 – First Birth Experience39:00 – Ecstatic & Orgasmic Birth47:00 – Postpartum Integration51:00 – Who Am I Now?54:00 – Womb Wisdomn56:00 – Connect with Yvonne58:00 – Outro & Calls to ActionA new woman’s story is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Today, on the podcast, we have a truly inspirational woman who I know you will just love - Karma! She joins us to share her incredible journey that has spanned over many years, focusing on healing her womb and overall health through traditional midwifery practices, internal vaginal massage, and substantial dietary changes, which many of you will likely relate to. She describes how a dramatic shift occurred after a seemingly unfortunate fall, which ultimately reset her uterus to its optimal alignment, relieving years of debilitating period pain. The conversation also delves into emotional healing, the hard work of separating from who you thought was your life partner, and the profound impact of sisterhood. As she moves forward, Karma emphasizes the importance of self-trust, self-compassion, and financial stability, adding to her mission of supporting women across all life stages. Tune in for a truly nourishing chat between two women who are willing to get real with you.In this episode…00:00 Welcome to Moon Baby Magic Podcast00:38 Connecting with Listeners01:31 The Power of Personal Myths01:54 Reflections on 'Women Who Run With the Wolves'02:56 Healing Through Shared Stories06:56 Updates and Announcements08:29 Introducing Today's Guest: Karma09:34 Karma's Journey to Womb Healing10:15 The Importance of Self-Mothering17:17 Menstrual Shame and Reclamation29:19 The Impact of Diet and Internal Pelvic Work47:41 Understanding Uterine Pain and Fascia Release49:50 The Journey of Self-Healing and Devotion54:19 The Importance of Self-Care Rituals59:53 Navigating Breakups and Emotional Healing01:05:54 The Power of Female Friendships01:10:31 Embracing Personal Growth and Trusting Yourself01:23:39 Karma's Work and Final ThoughtsA new woman’s story is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

In this episode, Charlotte shares her powerful journey of reclaiming her body and sexuality after a traumatic sexual experience. As a sexual trauma survivor, yoni massage therapist, embodiment leader, and Aquarius rising, Charlotte has dedicated the last eight years to reclaiming her sense of safety and helping hundreds of other women do the same. She discusses the significance of her menstrual cycle, specifically her bleed, in her healing process and offers potent wisdom into developing a deep, consent-based relationship with one's body. The conversation touches on the themes of embodiment, claiming the forbidden female archetypes, and why she doesn’t love the word “healing.” Charlotte's work culminates in her 'Wet and Worthy Woman Method,' which aims to help women reclaim the suppressed and silenced parts of their womanhood. You’ll absolutely love the open, raw, honest, and fun conversation between Charlotte and I, two new friends! In this episode…00:00 Welcome and Personal Check-In01:41 Reflections on Sharing My Story02:33 Travel Transitions and Grounding03:19 Intentional Maidenhood Program Highlights05:14 Introducing the Embodied Woman Program07:23 Special Guest Introduction: Charlotte's Journey10:02 Charlotte's Mission and Personal Transformation16:57 Female Archetype Explorations: The Hungry Woman30:08 First Bleed Stories and “Meaty” Bleeds35:35 Exploring Womb Work and Friendship37:18 Anointing with Menstrual Blood37:45 Navigating Public Reactions42:28 Transitioning Off Birth Control and Veganism45:36 Reclaiming the Menstrual Cycle50:42 Sexual Assault and Healing from Trauma59:30 The Power of Consent01:04:50 Final Thoughts and WisdomA new woman’s story is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Today is the one year anniversary of the Moon Baby Magic podcast, and in honor of that, today on the podcast, we have…. Me! Wow, women, what a wonderful year it has been and I finally felt resourced and ready to share my own Blood Mysteries Story. In this deeply personal episode, I reflect on how this podcast has been a bigger soul mission than I ever could have imagined and how deeply it has called me into my purpose and changed my life. My story is one characterized by constant change and evolution (like my spirit animal, the snake!), the influence of incredible female friendships, and the unshakeable voice of my womb always guiding me into my highest expansion. My way of storytelling is laidback, freely emotional, and without holding back. This episode is a vulnerable heart share and I am so honored to let you all into the story of my life!

Today, on the podcast, we have my dear friend Madeline's deeply transformative story. Madeline shares her initiation into the mysteries of womanhood, from her early excitement about menstruation to navigating her teenage years on birth control and SSRIs. Her journey takes a profound turn as she prepares consciously for conception after years of working in the world of birth, postpartum and even conscious CONTRAception (funny story with this one you’ll want to hear!) guided deeply by her intuition and ancestral connection. She details her intense experience with pregnancy, and the heart-wrenching realization of her baby's death. Madeline's narrative continues through her ceremonial preparation for and experience of her early birth, ultimately leading her to a deep integration of grief and wisdom. The episode concludes with Madeline embracing her role as a childless mother, offering profound wisdom on life, death and rites of passages as well as celebrating the alchemical transformation of her journey. This one has been a long time coming and Madeline’s way of weaving story will truly transport you - you won’t want to miss it!In this episode…00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene01:12 Grounding and Nervous System Safety02:45 The Embodied Woman Mentorship05:28 Madeline's Transformative Journey07:17 Welcoming Madeline and Grounding Exercise24:45 Madeline's Menarche and Teenage Years40:39 Navigating Birth Control and Emotional Suppression56:40 Discovering Cyclical Living57:35 Journey into Birth Work57:57 Embracing Womb Wisdom01:01:27 Connecting with Ancestral Guidance01:03:23 Honoring the Earth with Menstrual Blood01:09:03 Exploring Conscious Conception01:13:50 Navigating Miscarriage and Ancestral Healing01:17:13 The Rite of Passage into Parenthood01:29:52 Processing Grief and Embracing Ceremony01:49:25 Receiving the Call to Action01:49:49 Herbal and Womb Care Practices01:52:02 Emotional and Physical Challenges01:54:42 The Birth Process02:01:04 Postpartum and Integration02:05:49 Honoring the Experience and Moving Forward02:08:02 The Alchemical Container of Pregnancy02:14:08 Completion and Transformation02:24:11 Embracing the Childless Motherhood02:31:58 Final Reflections and OfferingA new woman’s story is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.
