  • The timing of this conversation couldn’t have been more perfect. After living eight months on the island of Kauai and deepening my connection to the Earth and plant spirit world, I had the opportunity to sit down with writer, teacher, and earth intuitive, Asia Suler. I had just had my first dream of the island after returning to the mainland, where I greeted the ocean and it greeted me back with a big splash on my hand. I could truly feel the sentience of the plants and the land in the dream that I had been in such close relationship with.

    Have you ever experienced anything like this? Feeling the aliveness of everything around you? Communicating with the unseen realms?

    In this episode Asia shares her own journey of communication with the Earth and spirits of the plants. She shares about their message of self-compassion and how they work through us on behalf of our evolvement and healing.

    In this episode we discussed:

    What is earth intuition?

    Asia’s journey of healing chronic pain through the Earth’s wisdom

    Intuitive plant medicine

    Mugwort and Rose medicine

    Finding self-compassion and the true meaning of self-love

    How to navigate being an empath and the world opening back up after shelter-in-place

    Asia’s journey of intuitive entrepreneurship and the permission she gave herself in her writing that changed everything & opened her to her people

    Writing a book!

    The fears she has overcome to be where she is today

  • There's an intense amount of pressure we can put on ourselves to achieve, to do, and be productive. How can we know when it's ok to rest?

    Even in spiritual communities, it's so easy to get stuck in the cycle of constant productivity, as if our self-worth was dependent on it. How do we break the cycle?

    In this episode Meredith Rom shares a channeled message from source to remind you that you're not here to be a machine. You're a human with feelings and depth. Take ten minutes to let go into the abyss and remember who you came here to be.

  • It was an honor to sit down with Jane Mayer, a true voice and channel for the heart of the Holy One. In this conversation, Jane shares about her journey through the hallways of darkness to find her way back to the light of presence and union.

    Years ago she found herself unhappily married, struggling with an autoimmune disease and just coming off a failed round of in-vitro fertilization. She was crying, raging, and in deep, deep grief and paralysis. Her soul was screaming at her: it wanted her to change everything. But in the face of such a request, is it any wonder she didn’t want to listen?

    Is it any wonder so many of us don’t want to listen?

    Jane now offers multidimensional guidance and song for those who long to remember their True Selves. This conversation leads us from darkness to light, with insights from indigenous wisdom, and how listening may just be the deepest medicine we need now in the western world. We also discuss what it means to truly trust on a spiritual path and how to make sense of all the big changes humanity is now facing (COVID, Climate change for example).

    Be sure to stay all the way to the end to receive the codes Jane channels through song, in service to our pathway Home.

    In this episode we discussed:

    Jane’s spiritual path and journey of awakening from Birmingham, Alabama to the mountains of Peru

    How Jane found her voice

    What it means to listen, what takes us away from it, and how to take small steps to start tuning in to your own inner voice

    Christ codes of Sarah, Magdalene and Yeshua

    Healing on behalf of our ancestors

    Does healing ever end? How do we know when we have arrived? Where are we headed as a collective?

    Shifts in consciousness, death rites, and finding the courage within to surrender and welcome change

    “On personal and societal levels, our ability to thrive hinges on whether or not we commit to deeply listening. I fully believe that this is the frontier of our generation.

    Indigenous people around the world are masterful at these practices—and as a result, they live harmoniously with nature, avoid many of the modern, nervous-system diseases of the west, and maintain healthy communities. In fact, many indigenous wisdom keepers believe that all mental illness is a result of soul sickness—of disconnection from our inner voices.” ~ Jane Mayer

She gives thanks to the indigenous wisdom keepers of the Andes, Amazon, British Isles and Hawaiian islands, alongside countless teachers bridging their medicine back to the western world, for their unending presence as she remembered the pathway Home.

  • Finding intimacy with others begins with becoming intimate and honest with ourselves. In this episode with Kendra Cunov, we discuss the difficult habitual patterns we can get into as women seeking comfort and validation from our relationships.

    After years of dating men who were not fully available to commit to partnership, Kendra decided to take a break from dating and men altogether. She knew this was what she needed to get to the bottom of what was having her stay in deeply unfulfilling dynamics. She made a commitment to get in right relationship with The Masculine, to figure out what she really wanted in a relationship, and to liberate her own desire to love and be loved.

    Since then, she has worked with thousands of men, women & couples in the areas of embodiment, intimacy, and true self-expression. She also leads a program for women to embark upon a similar journey she went on, called The No-Man Diet.

    In this conversation we also discuss the energetics behind our actions, and be sure to listen to the end because I love her response when asked, “What advice do you have for a woman feeling dissatisfied with her life right now?”

    We hope you enjoy the show.

    In this episode we discussed:

    Relating to self and the world and how Kendra was drawn to the world of truth-telling and relationships

    Kendra’s program, “The No Man Diet” and how she’s been helping women release addictive and unhealthy patterns in relationship to men

    Cultivating intuition and giving ourselves permission to listen to it

    The energetics behind our actions and why we sometimes say something that is received differently than we expected

    The journey of finding self worth and learning to value yourself

    Courage and how to live from a place of authentic self-expression

    Getting really honest with where you are at and the powerful words of wisdom Kendra has for women feeling dissatisfied in their lives

  • I truly believe deepening our connection to our body’s wisdom and direct connection to source and intuition is a key tool for us in our ascension process. When we are tapped in, tuned in and able to decipher our own intuitive messages, we know how to feel, love and make empowered choices on our path for the highest good of all.

    I sat down with Jessica Reid to discuss intuition, connecting to spirit guides and channeling. Is it something we all have, or something we can cultivate? How do we begin this connection if it is more foreign to us? And what if we have been opening to our psychic abilities but it is overwhelming or scary? Jessica answers these questions and more in this week’s episode.

    In this episode we discussed:

    How Jessica first connected with her spirit guides

    How she navigated the intensity of feeling other people’s emotions as an empath

    How to connect with your spirit guides and use your intuition to discover your soul purpose and direction in life

    Clairvoyancy, channeling and purpose fulfillment

  • It’s a joy to have Aimée Cartier back on the Rising Women Leaders podcast to share her 4-part Getting Answers process. As SO MANY things in our lives feel unknown and changing, we are often left with so many unanswered questions. On all levels it seems clear that changes are needed in order to deal with the current challenges we are facing– from our health, to our livelihoods, to racial inequities, to climate change. New solutions are needed.

    How do we get those answers? How do we get those personal answers for ourselves during this unique moment in history we are living? Questions like, “What is the best way for me to stay healthy?”, “How do I create financial stability for my family?” Or “How do we continue to move forward, discern, find clarity and solutions in a world on fire?”

    Aimée suggests it is absolutely possible and that furthermore it is not that hard. In this episode she teaches a very simple process that anyone can use anywhere to get answers to the questions they are facing.

    In this episode we discussed:

    The Four steps in the Getting Answers process

    Aimée’s recommendations for creating your questions

    Receiving life vs. creating life and how to use manifestation and goal setting in collaboration with the universe

    The difference between fear and intuition

    What to do if we experience fear or resistance to the answers we receive

    How to best cope with this period where there is so much we don’t know

    What it looks like when inanimate objects give us an answer to our big life questions

    The practice of patience when waiting for an answer

    What to do if we don’t feel like we receive an answer

    How activism IS spiritual practice

  • I first met Lianda in a friend’s living room when she led one of her first workshops about the power of prayer. Her stories penetrated my heart and reminded me of one of the most simple yet profound practices we have access to in challenging times.

    I wanted to bring Lianda on the podcast to remind us of this power we all have access to at any time, and how when we are willing to be humble and ask for help, we open ourselves to miracles.

    Tune in to learn about simple practices to practice prayer, amplify your intuition and remember that we are most definitely not alone in this big (and sometimes scary) world…

    Lianda’s stories of healing and the power of prayer How to decipher the voice of your intuition How to shift energy and claim your space Where to start when developing your psychic abilities A prayer for our collective

  • Witnessing Janel step into life and relationships as the most true version of herself has been an inspiration.

    Janel believes that when we customize our relationships to fit our authentic needs and desires, not social expectations, we create emotional intimacy—which is real relationship security.

    Janel’s journey hiking the Appalachian Trail and Pacific Crest Trail and what she learned about life, love, and herself on the journey

    We talk about the journey from pre-conception to birth: from how to connect to the spirit of your baby long before even conceiving, how to let go of control when hoping to conceive, as well as how to navigate challenges and differing desires with family and partners when following your heart in how to bring your child into the world…

    The powerful transition from maiden to mother

    Nancy’s three unique birthing experiences and what led her to have empowered unassisted free births

    Navigating the challenges of “what people will think” when you follow your intuition to a less-than-mainstream course in life and birth

    Conscious conception and connecting with your spirit baby

    Activating your sovereign divinity as a woman and birthing in power

    What the children who are incarnating now are here for and what they need from us as parents and guardians

  • Ever since I was a little girl I sat with existential questions like, “What’s really happening here?” “Why are we doing this?” “What’s the point of it all?”

    I didn’t have many people to turn to for answers, until finally after college, I stepped on to a path of spirituality, meditation and yoga. I was led to deeper insight and intuitive wisdom within my body, where I began to remember and ascend.

    But it really wasn’t until I went to Egypt two years ago that I began to have an inner knowing that what we learned in history and science class in school about human evolution and Earth is simply not the whole story. Being inside the Great pyramids and temples, feeling the frequencies and beholding the incredible mystery of those lands led me to search for answers. I just knew there was no way those ancient cities were built with human hands. I knew there was a higher, much more evolved influence from the stars.

    I began learning about sacred sites of the world (such as Stone Henge and the Mayan Pyramids). I read books of people’s past life memories in Ancient Egypt and dove into the esoteric histories of Atlantis and Lemuria.

    Today, I am honored to introduce you to Lorie Ladd, Ascension Guide and a Multi-Dimensional Channel for the Galactic Federation of Light. It was on her first trip to Machu Picchu that the true history of Earth became more clear to her. In this conversation we dive into the possibilities of where this all began.

    In this episode we discussed:

    Lorie’s story from quitting her executive assistant job in San Francisco to saying yes to her calling in Mt. Shasta

    Trusting the timing in your soul’s journey

    How everyone’s “purpose” here is going to look different

    What is the Earth Experiment? Why are we here? What’s the point?

    The dimensional realities Earth has been moving through

    Atlantis and Lemuria on Earth

    As a starseed, how to handle feelings of wanting to go “back home” when things get hard

    What ascension looks like in our current times and why this is all happening
