WISE WOMEN DIARIES

Lauren Segalla (@the.healing.hummingbird) is a birth advocate, embodiment mentor, and speaker. She shares how her passion for birth started as a child which led her to become a labor and delivery nurse.... then she had to face the truth of the horror of the System. Together, we speak about how sex, birth, and life all reflect one another and how they are each a reflection to how deeply we are able to meet ourselves, or not. We speak about the importance of "feelings work," claiming our heart's desires, our life as a spiritual practice, owning our voices, the power of spirit babies, and the awe-inspiring magic of sacred sexuality.  Lauren's Website: https://embodiedecstasy.com/ Follow the Host on Instagram at: @trusting_life_ The Host, Lea, started a Patreon podcast with bonus episodes speaking about Sacred Sexuality, Inner Safety, and Learning how to Become a Soft, Surrendered Woman: Patreon podcast website

Anna McFall (@birth.diy) is a postpartum doula, birthkeeper, yogi, writer, and educator. She shares her journey from "princess to queen" in the preconception phase. We talk about relearning our relationship with our body, intuition, food, and birth while preparing to become a mother. We discuss the significance of shadow work in personal growth and the vision for a new paradigm where women can research birth, postpartum, and breastfeeding years prior to conception, so that pregnancy can be a time of true inward peace!   Follow the host on Instagram at: @trusting_life_

Honestly, every situation IN LIFE is an invitation into expansion or contraction!!! But a child invites their parents, through their pure authenticity, to expand into their soul's essence/divinity, or contract into their ego fear and control. Also discussed is the paradox of motherhood (and a long preconception phase), that we have so much control and power in our actions and mindsets AND we have no power at all because children (and spirit babies) have their own destiny and journey!  ** Bonus Podcast episodes on Patreon...

Terra (@terraperanteaux) is back, and we talk about how the German New Medicine framework has changed our lives and helped us restore the body + mind connection. We now have deep trust with our bodies and understand how the body tells the truth of our emotional conflicts. Terra explains some of her personal stories involving sinus "infections," migraines, mastitis, and postpartum rage.  Please email wisewomendiaries@gmail.com if you're interested in sharing your own GNM stories on the podcast!  Follow the host on Instagram at @trusting_life_ 

The consciousness of birth is rising so much that women are now aware of their CHOICES (that they always had). Homebirth, Freebirth, Birth Center Birth, Midwives in Hospitals.... we have choices! In this episode I talk about how the medical system sells the illusion of safety, we need to contend with the truth of life which is death, birth and sex and life is all correlated, and how the most important factor in birth and life is creating deep inner safety within our body, soul, and God. **My new solo podcast series on Patreon begins Jan 27** patreon.com/wise_women_diaries

Blake Romney (@conscious_kiddos) is back for the second time! She shares the beautiful story of her homebirth with her baby boy Azlan, after a devastating loss at 17 weeks and a long preconception journey. We discuss how labor is very similar to plant medicine journeys and how Blake was able to practice safety within her body years prior to birth, to fully surrender to the experience and sensations of birth. We also talk about the challenges and expansion of life after loss and the choice point of choosing greater Trust (soul) instead of greater Fear (ego).  Blake's first podcast episode from last year is: "Fertility Challenges as the Catalyst for Expansion & Alignment" Follow the host on instagram at: @trusting_life_

Kris Bayer, a 62 year old author and mother, homebirthed and homeschooled seven children in the ~90's.

Iyala (@wildwakening) shares her maturation journey back to her body, through a homebirth transfer, multiple miscarriages, a medical termination, and "early menopause." She emphasizes the importance of learning how to truly be in our bodies and *feel* our grief, learning somatic practices to learn inner safety and self-love, and the complexities of a woman's desire and yearning, yet surrendering.  https://wildwakening.com/ Follow the host on Instagram: @trusting_life_
