Get ready to shadow hunt spirituality! If you've ever wondered why wellness girlies and holistic health fans are so *judgy* — buckle up!
Because in this juicy episode, our business bestie Kelly Brogan M.D. (New York Times Bestselling Author and force of nature) joins us to talk about the shadow side of so-called "spirituality," “wellness,” “holistic health,” and “activism.”
Elyssa and Dawn helped to midwife Kelly's revelatory new book, The Reclaimed Woman. In this episode, we peel back the curtain to talk about how Kelly’s radical framework for self-relating has fully shifted how we show up, in business and in life. Together we lovingly dissect the shadow side of the wellness industry: rife with rules, rigidity, a sneaking sense of superiority, and making things and others bad and wrong (from gluten, to dropping an F-bomb, to “gasp” missing your daily face massage!).
We discuss releasing self-righteousness in favour of playfulness and do some lighthearted shadow-hunting around the humbling journey of the sovereign path. Because even if seed oils are bad for you, judging the "F" out of others has consequences too. Kelly goes deep into how this has shown up for her as a mother, providing a sigh of relief and some soothing soul balm for holistic mamas and wellness fans everywhere.
We talk about how Kelly's practices of exiting the victim triangle and entering through the upset has helped us step into sovereignty in every aspect of our lives: from business and relationships, to healing the sister wound, to literally everything in between. The era of the Reclaimed Woman has begun!
Good news, if you've been feeling alone on your path toward sovereignty, you are sooooo much more held than you think. Listen in and know that you're in good company of powerful women who get you!
We explore:
- The shadow of the wellness-girly industry as it relates to motherhood.
- The radical practice of “entering through the upset” and why it’s probably the only spiritual practice you'll ever need.
- Kelly’s HUGE revelation when it comes to parenting and relating to her daughters… how releasing good, bad, right and wrong in mothering will set you free.
- The outliers (aka psycho-spiritual dimensions) at play when it comes to health, German new medicine and why setting a masculine container is an essential part of the process.
- Finding the Middle Path, humbling oneself in the journey, stepping into play, and how this all relates to the Jungian journey of self initiation and reclamation.
- The Reclaimed Woman as the resolution of the triangulation against the self, where you actually get on your own team and stay on your own team.
- Kelly’s preternatural ability to call in magnificent women, how we are a movement and healing the sister wound together.
