  • In this episode, Jessica explores the concept of initiation - a major transformation that occurs when we experience radical change. She focuses specifically on the initiation into motherhood, discussing the changes that occur in pregnancy and how these help women integrate important lessons that will serve them in motherhood.

    Although our culture tends to demonize the physical changes that come with pregnancy and puts pressure on women to prove that they haven’t changed, Jessica explains that there really is no “going back” nor is that desirable because of the immense growth that occurs in motherhood.

    What you’ll learn in the episode:

    The basics of an initiation and what happens in the psyche during an initiatory process

    Why the physical and non-physical changes experienced during pregnancy are opportunities for personal growth

    How motherhood softens us to the feminine and helps us strengthen qualities like creativity, acceptance, and intuition

    Through personal anecdotes and insightful reflections, Jessica illuminates the transformative power embedded within the journey of motherhood, inviting listeners to embrace it as a pathway to personal growth and empowerment.

  • Ceremonialist, anthropologist, mother of two and founder of Rituel, Eve Gaines, joins Jessica on the podcast this week to talk about motherhood and the lost art of ritual.

    In this episode, you will learn about:

    The wisdom years when our disparate life experiences begin to synthesize

    Why so many women find their true calling in their 40s and 50s

    The skills, perspective and wisdom we gain in motherhood

    How motherhood helps us meet our own mothers with greater understanding and compassion

    Why having a career portfolio vs. a career path allows for more creativity, depth and personal expansion

    How to honor and prepare for the transition from maiden to mother and how to think about it differently if it’s your first born vs. adding another child to your family

    The importance of building your soul team to support you in motherhood

    How to incorporate ritual order to live with greater presence and intention

  • Psychologist, relationship coach, and breathwork teacher, Leigh-Anne LoPinto, joins Jessica on the podcast this week to talk about conscious relationships. Informed by the work of Carl Jung as well as Internal Family Systems, Leigh-Anne offers a new paradigm of relationships - one that sees relationships as a vehicle for personal growth and divine union.

    Leigh-Anne shares her own journey, including her marriage that ended after almost 20 years of being together followed by a dark night of the soul that really took her into all of this work. Through her own healing, she has developed a deep understanding of attachment styles, how to break patterns that hold us back in relationships, and how to balance feminine and masculine energies especially within the context of a relationship.

    In this episode, you will learn about:

    Attachment styles and how to move toward secure attachment Shadow work Reparenting yourself to heal childhood wounds The importance of healthy self-love and self-worth in relationships How to move from the false self to the higher self How to attract a partner who is ready to be in a conscious relationship How new chapters in a relationship such as having kids bring you into deeper layers of work

    Leigh-Anne breaks everything down in a way that is easy to understand, and she also offers tools you can put into practice right now to begin your own healing and re-patterning in order to move toward conscious relationships. For me, personally, I left the conversation feeling excited to continue working on my own marriage, and I know it will inspire you whether you are in a relationship right now or not.
