  • Are you on a journey of finding your voice and using it in a graceful and effective way in your life? 

    Many of us are striving to discover what we want to say and how to share it in a way that creates conversations and builds bridges, not walls. If you resonate with the idea of expressing yourself with clarity and ease, read on to discover how childhood and societal conditioning have affected how you use your voice.

    Today, let's honor our individual and collective voices by setting an intention to find and share our authentic voices. Whether within your inner circle, community, workplace, or the outside world, women's voices are being invited to the table more often. This episode is dedicated to women, amplifying our voices and sharing our truths. 

    Many of us sacrifice what we want to say to keep the peace, fit into a prescribed role, or make others comfortable. These patterns, rooted in childhood, continue into adulthood. As we work to shed what no longer serves us, we must recognize the universal challenge of expressing ourselves authentically.

    What fears come up when you try to express yourself? Concerns about sounding pushy or aggressive, and the risks involved, can hold us back. To move forward, we must challenge these fears and give ourselves permission to explore new ways of being. This journey involves recognizing our worth and practicing self-expression in small, manageable steps.

  • Have you ever wondered if there’s a way to navigate divorce without the tumultuous journey and emotional scars it often leaves behind? Today’s conversation with Jen Mitchell offers a fresh perspective and a new paradigm in the world of divorce management. Jen, a family law attorney, mediator, coach, and the CEO of Solace Divorce Mediation, joins Maureen Spielman, host of Mystical Sisterhood, to delve into her transformative approach to divorce and self-growth.

    Jen Mitchell is a pioneer and visionary in the field of family law and divorce mediation. Her story starts with a quest to reconsider the norms surrounding divorce and relationship completion. Whether you have experienced it yourself, know someone who has, or were a child of divorced parents, Jen shares crystal-clear wisdom and practical advice from her journey assisting couples and families. This enlightening conversation is not just about divorce but also about the new paradigm of truth where we are called to be authentic as individuals and as a collective. 

    Jen’s approach to mediation is deeply rooted in holistic wellness and personal transformation. She emphasizes the importance of creating a safe and loving space where clients can speak their truth without judgment. This new paradigm shifts away from the old systems of duality, right and wrong, and embraces acceptance and non-judgment. As a mediator, Jen helps her clients navigate this journey with tools for personal empowerment, such as breathwork, meditation, and a focus on holistic well-being.

    Jen Mitchell’s innovative approach to divorce mediation through Solace Divorce Mediation is transformative. By creating a safe, empowering space and focusing on personal growth, Jen is helping families navigate this challenging process with grace and dignity. Her work is a testament to the power of living authentically and the profound impact this can have on our relationships and personal well-being.

    As Jen puts it, the time is now for us to shine our light brightly. Her parting words remind us of the importance of following our calling and living in alignment with our true selves.

  • Do you believe in the power of coaching to transform lives?

    Being in the presence of a powerful coach who asks amazing questions is one of the delights of my life, whether it's a coach I've hired, like Melissa Ford, today's guest, or someone I interview on the podcast. The benefits and interchange that can occur with a beautiful coach are truly exponential.

    Melissa Ford is a seasoned business and life coach, and I had the pleasure of diving into a conversation with her about starting something new, the tools necessary for growth, personal mantras, and getting real with ourselves. This episode resonated deeply with me, and I know it will do the same for you. So, let's dive into the highlights of our discussion.

    Before recording, we set an intention for the episode and reminisced about how we first met within Susan Lucci's circles. These circles created impactful and powerful containers for personal growth and connection. Melissa highlighted the importance of having role models who step forward with courage and constantly stay on the learning curve.

    Melissa shared her personal story about starting her coaching career. She candidly spoke about how she initially treated her coaching business as a hobby and struggled to make it profitable. It wasn't until she hired a coach that she began to see significant growth and transformation, not only in her business but also in her personal life.

    In our conversation, we touched on the abundance of buzzwords in the coaching industry, such as "manifestation" and "abundance." Melissa shared that her approach to coaching is much more practical and down-to-earth. She focuses on asking powerful questions, challenging her clients to take action, and holding them accountable.

    "Our minds love drama," Melissa observed. She noted that while everyone's story is different, the underlying conditioning and narratives are often similar. These narratives are usually built on feelings of lack, insecurity, and not-enoughness.

    We all have the opportunity to question these narratives and reframe our experiences. Melissa encouraged listeners to start by taking small steps and showing up, even if they don't have a clear vision or feel confident.

    She shared her journey of questioning her beliefs about aging and stepping into a new phase of her life with courage and enthusiasm. "There's too much life to be lived," she said.

    About the...

  • Have you ever heard it said that the only constant in life is change? If you ask me, it's so true. I see it in my own life and countless others around me. Join me in this episode as I journey into the land of the empty nest (or free bird, as one of my sisters prefers to call it) and discuss how spiritual practices are supporting me through these changes, as well as providing support for my friends and family members. 

    This upcoming time of change has been greatly guided by my spiritual practices. Forming such practices and rituals has overturned many of my past beliefs. This has been supported through coaching programs, therapy, reading, and a commitment to myself. One of the earliest premises of Mystical Sisterhood was that joy and healing can coexist in the same space. This principle holds true for the change I’m going through now, combining joy, celebration, healing, and moments of emotional difficulty.

    This place in my life, as my kids are leaving the nest, brings a shift in energy, quietness, stillness, and a slower pace. The emotions are real and shared among us. Moms and women, cultured to nurture others, often overlook their own growth. This experience has given me the gift of self-compassion and self-care, enriched by the practices and beliefs I’ve developed. 

    As I reflect on my journey and prepare for the changes ahead, I hold deep appreciation and celebration for all it encompasses. Whether you're going through change yourself or supporting loved ones, take care of yourself and reach out if you need support. I'm here for you, offering workshops, creative gatherings, and a space of love and understanding. We are in this life together, and our shared experiences make us stronger.

    Thank you for being with me on this journey. If you feel a desire to dive deeper into self-exploration, join me for one of my upcoming events. Let's embrace change and new beginnings together.

  • Are you ready to embody your truest self? To learn what it means to read your body’s signals, get comfortable with the sensations of your emotion, and move into to high relationship with your body?

    In this week’s episode of Mystical Sisterhood, I’m joined by the insightful and inspiring Casey Berglund, a TEDx speaker, podcaster, founder of Worthy and Well, and co-author of "The Mind Body Way: The Embodied Leader's Path to Resilience, Connection, and Purpose." Casey specializes in helping individuals reconnect with their bodies and their true selves through her unique teachings on embodiment. Whether you’ve been feeling disconnected or are curious about how to deepen your relationship with your body, this conversation is for you.

    Casey discusses how her embodiment practices influence not just her personal life but also her professional life and the lives of her clients. By attuning to the body's sensations and emotional experiences, we can unlock deep wisdom and navigate our paths with greater clarity and confidence.

    For those new to the concept of embodiment, Casey offers practical advice, and she introduces her B.O.D.Y. acronym as a simple tool to begin this journey:

    - Breathe: Become aware of your breath.

    - Observe: Notice the sensations in your body.

    - Delay: Don’t rush to fix; just feel.

    - Say Yes: Listen to your body’s wisdom and act upon it.

    Through her work, Casey has seen how reconnecting with the body can lead to transformative changes beyond diet and physical health. Clients have ended unhealthy relationships, started businesses, and connected with their deeper purposes by following her embodiment teachings.

    This episode is a rich exploration of how reconnecting with our bodies can lead to a more authentic, purposeful, and fulfilling life. Whether you are new to the concept of embodiment or looking to deepen your practice, Casey Berglund’s insights offer a valuable guide to starting or continuing your journey.

    Join us in celebrating the wisdom of the body and the incredible potential that lies within us all. Thank you for tuning in, and we look forward to seeing you in the next episode of Mystical Sisterhood.

  • Are you ready to step into your true self and embrace the divine guidance within you?

    If you're a lover of all things magical and mystical, you're in for a treat! In this episode, we dive into an enriching conversation with Heather Hanson, a Magical Mentor and Founder of the Creative Sage Cottage in Union Pier, Michigan. Heather first joined the Mystical Sisterhood podcast on Episode 18, and now she’s back for another deep and inspirational discussion.

    We reflect on the transition from summer to autumn, discussing the invitation to rest, reflect, and prepare for the next phase of growth. Heather eloquently describes how we should allow excess and unneeded elements to fall away, much like autumn leaves, to make space for what truly matters.

    The conversation shifts to the theme of divine awareness and personal evolution. Heather shares her journey of allowing herself to truly know that divine guidance speaks through all of us. She emphasizes the importance of trusting our intuition and not allowing external voices to override our inner wisdom.

    Heather stresses the importance of maintaining a sense of wonder and curiosity. She uses the metaphor of a child marveling at a pile of rocks to illustrate how we should approach life—with an uninhibited sense of discovery and awe.

    As we wrap up, Heather reminds us that divine guidance will always meet us where we are. We don’t need to be anything other than our true selves to be perfect in the eyes of the divine. Maureen and Heather also announce an exciting upcoming event—a workshop for the fall equinox and new moon in early October, where participants will create their own Wisdom Keeper Dolls, charged with personal intentions.

    Join Us for a Magical Experience!

    Mark your calendars for October 3rd and get ready to dive into a soulful, creative experience with Maureen and Heather. Participants will receive a kit filled with unique materials to craft their own Wisdom Keeper Dolls. This workshop promises to be a beautiful gathering of energies, fostering personal growth and divine connection.

    Book your spot for the workshop and become part of this extraordinary journey of self-discovery and communal creation. We can’t wait to see you there!

  • Have you ever felt the profound power of your heart and wondered about its deeper significance in your life?

    Today, we explore the connection between the heart and the powerful Lionsgate portal, an event that opens every year in late July to mid August, peaking on August 8th. This celestial event aligns perfectly with the rising of Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, presenting an ideal opportunity to delve into our heart's wisdom.

    According to www.sagegoddess.com, the Lion’s Gate Portal activates significant star power energy. This aligns with Sirius rising, visible just before sunrise above the eastern horizon. Though not an expert, my fascination with these topics encourages perpetual learning and discovery, often diving into deep rabbit holes.

    The heart plays a pivotal role in our lives; not just in our physical form, but emotionally and spiritually as well. For most of my life, I utilized my mind as the ultimate decision maker. Through my learnings and study, I now realize that balancing my mind with my heart is criticall. Receptivity and allowing our hearts to lead have become part of my daily intention setting. How does this resonate with you?

    Join me today in exploring fascinating truths about the heart and how we can leverage them during the Lion’s Gate Portal. How often do you consider your heart a powerful emotional and spiritual center? Reflecting on this can offer new meaning and depth to our experiences!

    Listen in to re-discover and re-member the brilliance within you, and embrace the powerful transformation the 2024 Lion’s Gate Portal brings. From my heart to yours, thank you for joining me today!

  • Are you captivated by the mysteries of your dreams? Do you wish you could recall and understand your dreams better? If so, you are not alone. 

    Join me and integrative adult sleep coach and certified dream work practitioner, Leah Ann Bolen, as we delve into how our dreams support us in processing our waking lives and provide hope even for the most restless of sleepers.

    Leah shares how her dream life started manifesting during her early corporate years. Ambitious and eager to climb the corporate ladder, she faced sleep challenges such as insomnia, sleep paralysis, and night terrors. Unsatisfied with traditional "fortune cookie dream analysis," Leah sought real, deeper understanding of her dreams. She began to notice synchronicities between her dreams and waking life, leading her to study dream work theory and practice under skilled mentors.

    Leah explains that while people often seek straightforward interpretations of their dreams, the true power lies in the exploration. By examining their dreams with guidance, individuals uncover personal meanings that resonate deeply with their experiences. Leah sees herself as more of a guide, helping people unlock the inner wisdom contained in their dreams.

    Beyond the metaphysical, Leah emphasizes the importance of nurturing the physical aspect of sleep. Society's wake-centric mindset often leads us to dismiss sleep, despite its critical role in our well-being. Leah talks about how our body's innate mechanisms need proper sleep, free from the influence of pills or supplements.

    Leah emphasizes the importance of intention and practice in remembering dreams. She suggests keeping a dream journal by your bedside and taking a few moments upon waking to recall and jot down your dreams. This practice signals to your subconscious mind that you value your dream life.

  • Have you ever found yourself overwhelmed with the challenges of modern parenting? From navigating technology to raising children in a post-pandemic world, today's parents face unique hurdles never before encountered. 

    Fortunately, the concept of conscious parenting, or what Jenn Wert calls "connected parenting," offers a refreshing approach to tackling these challenges. In this week’s episode, we'll explore a compelling conversation about parenting, diving into the core tenets of connected parenting and how it can transform your relationship with your children.

    Jenn Wert, an expert in social and emotional intelligence, has dedicated herself to helping parents lead with connection, curiosity, and emotional regulation. Her journey began at a young age, recognizing her own highly sensitive nature and translating that understanding into her work as a mother, educator, speaker, and parent coach.

    We touch on the growing recognition of highly sensitive individuals, especially children. Jenn explains, "It's the background music of every moment... I think it started when I was very, very young." This sensitivity, Jenn argues, should be seen as a gift rather than a burden. "First, I would like for the curiosity and the exploration with parents and teachers working with children, for them first to intervene in ways you would with a highly sensitive child," she advises.

    Jenn's message is empowering: "You are encoded with all the answers you need." Conscious parenting isn't about achieving perfection. It's about the ongoing journey of self-discovery and attunement to our children's needs. By fostering a sense of connection, practicing self-care, and seeking support when needed, we can navigate the complexities of modern parenting with grace and intention.

  • Have you ever felt like life is a constant whirlwind, pushing you in all directions with little time to catch your breath?

    Life can feel pretty crazy sometimes, don't you think? It’s constantly moving, bringing us experiences to learn and grow from. Often, we feel powerless or stuck in a repetitive cycle, but the constant factor in all this chaos is ourselves. We are here to grow, experience joy, and have fun. 

    In today’s episode, I want to explore the power of setting intentions and adopting new perspectives to assist you on your journey. 

    Setting intentions allows us to direct our lives toward what we want to experience. A few beginning thoughts that capture this idea involve overturning what we once thought or looking more deeply at the ways we were conditioned and what there is to let go of or move on from. It’s a time of rapid expansion for those who want to connect with themselves fully.

    Take a quiet moment today, perhaps right now, to sit with a notebook or journal. Ask yourself, with the support of the universe, what intentions you want to set. Whether they are physical actions or qualities you wish to embody, writing them down can set powerful changes in motion.

    When you commit to setting intentions and embracing new perspectives, you transform from within. This transformation allows you to trust yourself and your path, taking responsibility for your life choices. Remember to be patient with yourself and surround yourself with like-minded individuals. Take note of how life assists you in your growth, and watch as your experiences begin to change in beautiful ways.

  • Are you curious about how angels and spirit guides surround you and are here to support you? How synchronicities, or what we often call coincidences, are meaningful signs from the universe? If these questions intrigue you, then you're in for a treat. In this episode of Mystical Sisterhood, I sit down with angel channeler and medium Valerie Wood, who shares wisdom and knowledge from over 20 years of working with clients.

    Valerie discusses the common misunderstandings people have about their spiritual guides. She clarifies that angels have never been human but can take human form. On the other hand, spirit guides have had human experience and can be friends or family you have known in past lives. 

    Connecting with your spiritual guides is not just about surface-level comfort but can provide genuine emotional and practical support. Valerie shares examples of how different types of angels can aid you based on their specific qualities, like a "numbers angel" for data work or "earthy angels" for those connected to nature.

    Discussing the sensitive topic of death, Valerie shares her experiences helping clients dealing with terminal illnesses or those who have lost loved ones. She also underscores the importance of paying attention to the subtle signs and messages from the universe. These synchronicities are often guiding you towards something meaningful. By being curious and open, you can uncover valuable insights and opportunities.

    Valerie Wood’s unique perspective on angels, spirit guides, and synchronicities provides a refreshing and comforting take on spirituality. By exploring these concepts and forming your own connections, you can experience tremendous support and guidance in your everyday life.

  • How would you describe your relationship to financial flow? Is it filled with ease and grace? Anything but ease and grace? Or somewhere in between? These questions are at the heart of our discussion in Episode 80 of Mystical Sisterhood, where our guest, Alicia Isaacs Howes, dives deeply into our connections with financial abundance and spiritual prosperity.

    Today's episode invites you to consider your relationship with financial abundance. Alicia Isaacs Howes is no stranger to Mystical Sisterhood, and her wisdom draws from decades of experience in soul connection and the Akashic Records. We explore what supports you on your journey to financial abundance, and Alicia offers clear, channeled guidance on the insights we most need to know.

    Alicia Isaacs Howes hails from England and specializes in soul connection and the Akashic Records. She is the founder of YourSoulStory.com and the creator of the ReRoot Process. Over more than two decades, Alicia has been working to help others connect deeply with their soul and the universe. Her extensive experience brings profound wisdom to our conversations.

    In our discussion, Alicia reframes money as a form of energy and blessings from the divine. By working with women, particularly those in business, Alicia helps them restore their original codes and align with the infinite flow of divine energy. The conversation highlights the importance of allowing money to flow through us, reflecting our relationship with source.

    Alicia paints a transformative picture of society and culture when women achieve financial abundance. As women embrace their worth and gifts, they elevate themselves and others around them. This shift dissolves the paradigm of suffering and sacrifice, fostering a world where joy, peace, and prosperity are accessible to all.

    Alicia explains the concept of money ceilings—energetic caps on how much money we can receive and hold. By addressing the knots in our divine flow, we can expand our capacity to receive and hold more abundance. Recognizing and working through these blocks is essential for achieving financial flow and stability.

    The discussion emphasizes the importance of embracing our gifts and overcoming blocks that prevent us from fully stepping into our purpose. By letting go of societal conditioning and trusting in our divine connection, we can create businesses and lives that align with our true selves.

    The power of community and support is a recurring theme in our conversation. Women holding each other in a space of intimacy and support creates an environment where we can all rise together. By seeing and supporting each other, we break barriers and create a world of infinite possibilities.

    Our journey with Alicia Isaacs Howes in Episode 80 of Mystical Sisterhood brings invaluable wisdom and practical guidance. Her teachings on abundance, empowerment, and spiritual prosperity inspire us to embrace our gifts, overcome our blocks, and create lives filled with joy, peace, and financial flow.

  • What if you could see your life through the lens of a miracle and trust that your unique light is needed in the world? Imagine dissolving your fears and living out your fullest expression. This was the theme at the heart of an enlightening conversation I recently had with Tama Kieves on Mystical Sisterhood. 

    Tama, a former Harvard-educated lawyer turned visionary and success coach, shared her profound journey from the courtroom to the world of spiritual guidance and coaching. This episode was full of wisdom, inspiration, and practical advice for anyone seeking to unlock their own potential and live a life guided by their inner voice.

    One of the most compelling aspects of our conversation was Tama's approach to fear and uncertainty. She emphasizes that encountering fear is not a sign that something is wrong, but a part of the healing process:

    “Feeling fear doesn’t mean things aren’t working out. Sometimes the bigger the dreams, the louder your fears.”

    Through her book "A Year Without Fear," Tama provides a daily guide to shifting mindsets and embracing courage. She encourages us to redefine our relationship with fear, viewing it as an integral part of our growth rather than a barrier.

    Tama has developed tools to help people shift their internal narratives, understanding that the stories we tell ourselves often dictate our reality. She offers a free tool called the Story Shifting Magic Process, which helps individuals reframe their stories — a vital practice for anyone wanting to tap into their deeper potential.

    In a world filled with noise and conventional wisdom, Tama's message is a call to inner authenticity and trust. Whether you're pursuing career changes, creative endeavors, or simply trying to live more authentically, her advice is clear: listen to that voice of genius within you and trust it to guide you.

    Our conversation with Tama Keeves was a vivid reminder that our inner light is not only necessary but imperative. By dissolving our fears, embracing uncertainty, and listening to our inner voice, we can live lives rich with meaning and purpose.

  • Are you searching for a deeper connection in your conversations and relationships? Today, we dive into a transformative dialogue about the essence of conscious conversations and what it truly means to embrace a mystical sisterhood.

    Conscious conversations are at the heart of what I consider mystical sisterhood to be. What does a truly fulfilling conversation feel like? To me, it's profoundly soul-fulfilling. It's a conversation where I feel seen and heard, and we talk about what really matters in life—a feeling I walk away with that invites me back for more.

    Today, Zeenath Ansari Selvakumar joins me for this enriching conversation, and we delve into the world of women at midlife. We explore deep self-care that feels truly honoring, a profound way of putting ourselves first to thrive and shine. So, sit back and join us in the episode.

    Zeenath acknowledges the importance of feeling how we are guided through life. "I've always felt an internal guidance," she shares, noting that her cultural and religious background provided a foundation but her true north came from within. In her teenage years, people often came to her for comfort, indicating her innate capability to connect and heal.

    Zeenath speaks about the many roles she juggles, balancing her corporate job, being a yoga instructor, a breathwork practitioner, and managing a family. Despite these responsibilities, she remains committed to living an aligned, higher-conscious life. This journey, while filled with challenges, leads to deeper self-discovery and soul connection.

    Our discussion transitions to the topic of midlife—the phase where many women are balancing multiple roles while experiencing significant changes within themselves. Zeenath highlights the need for deep self-care and intentional practices, such as meditation and breathwork, to navigate this transformative period.

    Remember, the journey towards higher consciousness and self-discovery is a continuous process. Surround yourself with positive influences and remain curious about your inner world. For those interested in furthering this journey, Zeenath offers meditation, breathwork, and coaching services to help individuals explore their true selves.

  • When you think of your close relationships, what are your biggest challenges? Are you looking to improve your communication skills or find other ways to grow? If so, you're in the right place today. Join us in this enlightening conversation with Dr. Marcy Cole, a holistic psychotherapist and personal development and relationship coach. Dr. Cole has contributed to publications such as Goop and Maria Shriver's Sunday Paper and participated in two bestselling anthologies.

    One of the core themes in Dr. Cole’s work is connectivity. Whether it’s individual therapy, couples counseling, or community work like her First Tuesdays project, the focus is on connection. One term Dr. Cole uses is "Interpersonal IQ," which blends emotional intelligence with communication. It’s about how we feel and how we express those feelings. The words, framing, and timing all matter.

    Given the current global environment, families face numerous challenges. Dr. Cole emphasized the importance of mindfulness for parents. Being present and grounded allows parents to better support their children.

    As we draw our conversation to a close, it’s clear that Dr. Marcy Cole’s work in relationships, personal growth, and community engagement is a guiding light for many. Her holistic approach encourages us to seek deeper connections within ourselves and with others.

    Dr. Cole’s advice to those contemplating a career pivot or personal growth is profound: “Stay true to yourself. Life is ever-changing, and it’s okay to explore and pivot. The key is to remain connected to your truth.”

    Dr. Cole’s initiatives and wisdom remind us of the importance of connection. Whether through structured morning practices or revolutionary SEL programs in schools, we are encouraged to transform and enrich our lives continually.

  • Have you ever wondered what a life filled with inner safety, compassion, loving kindness, and understanding for oneself looks like? In this episode, we revisit a deeply insightful conversation with Joseph Argazzi (Joe), a spiritual counselor, and recovery specialist. Throughout the episode, Joe shares his practices, principles, and lived wisdom on achieving a life of spiritual well-being. Join us as we delve into Joe’s  journey and his teachings on assuming radical responsibility for our lives and surrendering to the infinite possibilities that await us.

    One of the core themes of our conversation with Joe revolves around shifting from a victim mentality to an empowered mindset. Joe shares his journey of realizing that life isn't something happening to him but for him. Even in the most painful circumstances, he learned to see the universe's hand in guiding him towards growth and self-expansion.

    Joe recounts his experiences of discovering new spiritual insights, sharing these with others, and watching his consciousness evolve over the years. This shift—from seeing life as a series of misfortunes to recognizing it as an intricate plan for personal growth—has radically transformed Joe's life.

    A powerful takeaway from Joe’s teachings is the practice of radical acceptance. Embracing what is, without resistance or judgment, creates an opening for divine intelligence and creativity to flow through us. This acceptance paradoxically enables change and growth, providing a sense of peace and alignment with our true selves.

    This conversation with Joe Argazzi highlights the profound impact of compassion, self-understanding, and spiritual practice in living a fulfilled life. By embracing our emotions as messengers, transitioning from victim mentality to empowerment, and surrendering to the universe’s infinite possibilities, we can cultivate a life of internal safety and loving kindness.

  • Have you ever wondered how personal challenges could potentially alter and define a professional journey? In the latest episode of Mystical Sisterhood, I sit down with Dr. Jill Carnahan, a leading voice in functional medicine who has transformed her personal battles into a wellspring of inspiration and knowledge for many. Dr. Jill's story is a testament to human resilience, hope, and the confluence of science and faith. Dive into our conversation as we explore her profound narrative that combines battling aggressive breast cancer, embracing functional medicine, and realizing the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit.

    For many, the concept of functional medicine may seem like an abstract, fringe area of health. However, Dr. Jill provides illuminating insights into this growing field. Functional medicine, she explains, involves delving into the 'why' behind a disease, rather than simply managing symptoms. It aims to identify and address the root causes of illness, looking at the complex interactions between genetics, environment, and lifestyle.

    Autoimmune diseases and gut issues are on the rise globally. Dr. Jill breaks down this complex topic, unraveling how environmental triggers, genetics, and gut health can contribute to such conditions. She stresses the importance of addressing gut health to calm the immune response, a critical step in managing autoimmune diseases.

    For those navigating their health journey, Dr. Jill’s advice is clear: trust your intuition, seek holistic approaches, and empower yourself with knowledge. Her dedication to her patients and her unwavering faith serve as an inspiring lesson that, even in the face of adversity, one can find resilience and hope.

    If you are facing health challenges or simply seeking to improve your wellbeing, Dr. Jill's story and approach might just provide the motivation you need to start on a transformative path. Remember, healing is possible, and often, the journey of suffering can lead to unexpected revelations and resilience.

    We talk about:

    00:00 Intro02:32 Dr. Jill's Battle with Breast Cancer05:13 Exploring the Multidimensional Approach of Functional Medicine10:02 The Power of Self-Advocacy in Medical Treatment15:28 Spirituality and Healing: Dr. Jill's Personal Insights18:10 Understanding Functional Medicine: A Deeper Dive21:37 The Power of Functional Medicine: Reversing the Incurable24:21 Identity and Habits: The Key to Lasting Change25:34 The Power of Positive Affirmations and Self-Care27:36 Listening to Your Body: The Importance of Somatic Experiencing29:12 Learning to Slow Down: A Personal Story of Self-Care30:56 Creative Ways to Share Work Without Burnout33:53 Addressing the Rise of Autoimmune Conditions

  • How many hats have we worn in our lifetimes? Do we have to stay the course we initially chose? These are questions that often plague us as we navigate through life's unpredictable waters. It's a story of transformation and actualization that resonates deeply in the tale of Sarah Maher, the proprietor of Village and Vessel, a beacon of light and vibrational healing in the heart of Oak Park, Illinois.

    Sarah's journey is not just her story; it mirrors the quest of many who seek purpose beyond the conventional paths laid before them. Sarah's transition from the world of comedy and tech to opening a crystal and tarot shop reflects a profound exploration of self and the courage to live one's dreams.

    Sarah reminisces about her discovery and connection with crystals during a time when she felt lost and disconnected from her purpose. Her venture into the world of metaphysical healing was not just about embracing a new profession but about reclaiming her soul's call. The creation of Village and Vessel was a response to an inward pull—an answer to a community's silent plea for a space that understood and catered to their spiritual path.

    Village and Vessel is more than just a crystal shop; it's a sanctuary for seekers, a place where souls can commune, learn, and grow. Sarah's passion for healing crystals and her commitment to providing a space for spiritual education and evolution resonates deeply with her mission. The shop stands as a testament to the beauty of pursuing one's passions, exploring the mystical, and supporting each other's journeys.

    Sarah Maher's story, encapsulated in the founding of Village and Vessel, serves as a luminous example of what becomes possible when we dare to dream and support one another. Her journey from feeling lost to finding her purpose in the world of crystals and healing is a powerful narrative of personal evolution and community building.

    For those in the Oak Park area or beyond, Village and Vessel awaits your visit, ready to offer a space for healing, learning, and connection. Whether through their physical storefront or online presence, Sarah and her team look forward to guiding you in your journey towards vibrational healing and spiritual discovery.
