Can you remember that pain of feeling misunderstood? Cast out? And separate? Usually the people in judgement don’t know the whole story. They don’t know the truth of who we are or what we’ve been through. And usually the people who judge, are themselves in some kind of pain. I imagine you can relate to that truly awful feeling, especially if you identify as highly sensitive. It’s enough to make one want to attack back, or worse, go into hiding or shame. I’ve been thinking of Mary Magdalene this week, as her Feast day approaches. Eight years ago Pope Francis declared July 22 as a Feast Day for Mary Magdalene, honoring her role in Jesus’ life as “The Apostle of the Apostles.” Many of you may know of her as she was named by the Catholic Church long ago - as a prostitute or whore. She was judged, and as what happened to many powerful women, her name was dragged through the mud. But the truth is she was an absolute equal to Jesus in his ministry. There came a time, in the first few centuries that the Bible was changed, and stories of powerful women were taken out of it. And the Church didn’t want people to think that Jesus was human - that he had a beloved, instead they wanted to portray him as this divine being that could only be accessed through the Church. That way they could keep the power. So any stories depicting Jesus as a partner, a beloved, a lover and husband to Mary, were removed. Powerful women were seen as a threat in her time. Women were mysterious - they carried the gifts of new life inside their bodies, it was something men were not capable of, or even fully understood. When women joined together the men felt even more threatened (what is more powerful than a coven of women woven together by the same beliefs?) So whether it was conscious/intentional or not, the women were systematically shamed. First they shut down their power center - their womb - by shaming their sexuality. Then their menstrual cycle was seen as dirty, a burden or a curse. Bearing children, and giving birth was seen as a punishment. The women were deemed inferior. A woman was confined to the home. And sadly, when a woman shuts down in her womb center, she often shuts down her voice. I believe Mary knew one day though that her name would be restored, that one day thousands of women would awaken and carry on her legacy, of being powerful and embracing that power, as teachers, guides, healers and claiming their place as part of a larger movement. I believe she knew one day these women would reclaim the power of their menstrual cycle… The holiness of conception, pregnancy and birth… And through healing, would find their voice. But not only that, I believe that she also holds the codes of forgiveness. She reminds us to feel all the pain of the past, and to release judgement of others, even when we feel judged. To remember that those who are causing pain are also in deep pain themselves. I believe she had compassion for those who shamed her, dragged her name through the mud, even for those who wanted to persecute and kill her. There’s so much we can learn from Mary, and her embodiment. I wanted to share one of the audio lessons in my program, The Way of the Priestess about her. This weekend, let’s honor Mary, her sacred teachings and all she embodied. Listen to this recording to learn more about the practice of feeling our pain, a forgiveness process, seeing sexuality as sacred, our bodies as temples and how to embody a consciousness of abundance. Learn more about these practices in Mercedes Kirkel's channeled book, Mary Magdalene Beckons. Below I’m including some of the podcasts we devoted to spreading her truth and message as well as information regarding the 2024-2025 Way of the Priestess Initiation Program.

CLAIM YOUR POWER AND VOICE “Speaking to strangers has been one of my greatest fears that would often shut off my ability to be fully present and prevent me from making new connections with people. I dedicated a good portion of my life trying to overcome this fear by intentionally seeking out experiences that triggered this fear and this process was extremely difficult and the progress felt extremely slow. After a few sessions with Meredith on healing my voice and the fears associated with that, I now find myself effortlessly interacting with strangers, making new connections and to my greatest surprise I am starting to enjoy mingling in large corporate settings, which would previously terrify me.” ~Alina Daunyte Book a 1:1 Call with Meredith Blessed Be! * Download this Episode Reclaim Your Time (and Energy) with Ashley Burnett 0 Jul 12, 2024 Enrollment is now open for our Year-long Priestess Initiation Program: Beginning this September.

She had been living a health-focused lifestyle for years after leaving a job at Google and finding the heart medicine of cacao. But years later she would discover her days of drinking cacao, using plant medicines and eating a more vegetarian diet were no longer supporting her body’s needs. By chance, she won an instagram contest for a Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis and learned she was very depleted in certain key minerals our bodies need to thrive. Through changing her diet and supplementing with minerals, Sena began to see all the ways her current life were not supporting her true needs. She bravely left her fiancee, and soon moved from Northern California to her home town in St. Paul, Minnesota. I love watching my friends evolve and grow, and after witnessing Sena’s transformation to become radiantly nourished, I knew I wanted to hear the whole story. It turns out what may have worked in our 20’s is not always sustainable into our 30’s and beyond… In this episode we discussed: * What is hair tissue mineral analysis? What does it tell us about key minerals we may be missing? * The industrialization of our food system and why so many of us have food sensitivities that our grandparents didn’t * Why Sena’s health started deteriorating and how HTMA got her back on track to living radiantly nourished * Why Sena left her relationship, moved home to Minnesota and started over in life * The vulnerability of choosing to be single at 35 and also having the desire to start a family * Sena’s shift from using cacao daily to microdosing with mushrooms to letting go of both of them as a regular routine To learn more about Sena’s evolution, listen to our previous episode here Stay in Touch with Sena: * Website * Instagram Stay in Touch with Rising Women Leaders: * Website * Instagram * Make a donation on Patreon Sena Maria supports women to embrace a nourished, resilient and radiantly healthy state.

Sena’s degree in Psychology, career at Google and her subsequent studies of yoga, energy healing, shamanism, plant medicine, tools for building emotional capacity and integration, and Mineral Nutritional Balancing have led her to sit with many questions about what humanity may need at this time to heal from trauma + toxins, strengthen our families and create mineral-rich generations to come. She offers a woman-centric approach to healing with Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis utilizing it as a tool for deepening connection with one's self. * Download this Episode Celtic Wisdom, Dragons, Birth & Hormonal Balance: Your Questions Answered with Jane Mayer & Meredith Rom 0 Mar 26, 2024 Jane Mayer and I are back to answer the questions we received from you all in February!

Richard will be one of our guest teachers When I first discovered that when everyone is talking about “Full moon in Leo” the actual moon in the sky is most often in the constellation of Cancer my mouth dropped! How could this be? Ever since I was a kid I loved looking at the stars and astronomy was one of my favorite subjects in school. I’ve always asked questions like, “Why are we here? Where did we come from, and what’s the point of all of this?” So many of these questions have begun to be answered through my study of Vedic Astrology, the ancient form of astrology from India. In Vedic astrology, our chart is a printout of our karma, the lessons our soul came to experience in this life. We bring with us our beneficial and challenging karmas to be lived out and worked through. Our soul has different reasons for incarnating - for example Dharma, Artha (Money, and how we earn it), Kama (Passion, desire) and Moksha (liberation). I’ve been wowed again and again by the accuracy of Vedic Astrology, to predict dates and beneficial phases. Richard has helped me choose dates to buy a car, beneficial times to marry, has predicted certain moves I’ve had, and so much more. This episode has been a long time coming! I’ve been referencing what I’ve learned in Vedic astrology more and more in the episodes, so I wanted to sit down with guest expert, Vedic Astrologer Richard Powell. Richard has been a dear friend and teacher of mine since I began studying with him during the beginning of the pandemic. In this episode we discussed: * The differences between Western and Eastern or “Vedic” astrology * The “Four Aims of Life” (Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha) and why our souls choose to incarnate * The 12 constellations, what planets they are ruled by and what are their unique energies * Each of the planets and their energies * Phases of life ruled by the planets and how to find out what phase of life you are in * The nodes of the moon: Ketu and Rahu: And our experiences from these life phases Links in this Episode: * View your unique chart: https://deva.guru/ - exact birth time does make a difference so be sure to check your birth certificate * Your “sign” in vedic astrology will be the number in the top center diamond (1-12) in the chart * Your “phase of life” will be the planet listed in the “Viṁśottarī Daśā” section underneath the chart Stay in Touch with Richard: * Richard’s Vedic Astrology Course Begins February 19th * Website - Book 1-1 Vedic readings * Instagram Stay in Touch with Rising Women Leaders: * Website * Instagram * Make a donation on Patreon -- Richard is a NAMA-certified Doctor of Āyurveda. He is a graduate of the Āyurvedic Institute and has studied extensively under Dr. Vasant Lad in the US and India. He furthered his Ayurveda and Vedic philosophy studies under Dr. Ashwin Shastry of Arogya Niketana in Karnataka, India. Upon returning to the United States, Richard pursued advanced classical Ayurvedic studies in a clinical setting at the Arogya Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico, under Kashyapa Fisher for an additional four years. Since 2018, he has been employed at the Ayurvedic Center of Vermont where he gives consultations, teaches, and gives treatments. Complimenting his extensive education in Āyurveda, Richard has been studying and teaching yoga for over 20 years and is an ERYT-500. He is an avid student of Sanskrit, Jyotisha (Vedic Astrology), and Vedic philosophy. After a chance meeting with Hart DeFouw he decided to study in that lineage, most prominently under Penny Farrow, with whom he still studies. In addition to his studies in the Vedic sciences, Richard is a Reiki Master and is an avid practitioner of Aikido, the Japanese martial art. His passion for earth healing meets his devoted studies in physical, mental, and spiritual health as he was formerly a permaculture designer and educator and founded the nonprofit Orlando Permaculture in Orlando, Florida. Richard believes that by aligning with nature and the Divine we will find not only our own optimal health but also greater peace and balance in the world. He brings his comprehensive experiences and education into his consultations with his clients to empower them to find fulfillment, peace, and healing. * Download this Episode Womb Wisdom, Pregnancy & Living in the Mystery with Jane Mayer 0 Dec 2, 2023 I’m back to podcasting!

And now, Jane being halfway through her pregnancy is deciding the same.

I met Kerry years ago when she found one of my self-care guide downloads and invited me to be a wise woman to visit her mom and baby groups. I remember thinking I would love to join something like that to meet other mothers and babies if I ever had a child one day… and about six years later it happened! Kerry has been supporting new mothers, babies and families for the past decade in CA and now is sharing her curriculum to create a ripple effect of sharing more of these nourishing postpartum groups around the world. Care for the next generation really does start with the mother, and the more we can surround families with support in early postpartum the easier it will be to interrupt harmful narratives and create networks of love, care and support when we need it most. In this episode we discussed: * Kerry’s experience postpartum: the surprises, challenges and ways she found the support she needed * How community support impacts early parenting and is culture-making by creating space to see and interrupt harmful narratives * How to be a village tender and step into leadership for new parents in your community * The “Early Parenting Villains” and how these systems, for example, ‘consumerism’ ‘diet culture’ or ‘patriarchy’ come up so often in new motherhood, how to identify them and ways to shift our relationship with them * Self-care in postpartum, asking for help and building community Links in this episode: * Kerry’s Course: Village Tenders Postpartum Community Care Course Stay in Touch with Kerry: * IG: @villagetenders * FB: Community Supported Postpartum Stay in Touch with Rising Women Leaders: * Website * Instagram * Patreon Kerry Ingram is the founder of Community Supported Postpartum whose mission is to build ecosystems of care one community at a time.

Having an unorthodox childhood and being surrounded by death at a young age led her on a spiritual quest that took her all over the world, culminating in her ordination as a Buddhist monk (by a bi-polar guru with delusions of grandeur so she’s not 100% sure the ordination counts.) What began as writing for catharsis in 2013—as she struggled to regain her sanity after being brainwashed in a Buddhist cult—turned into her first memoir, The Burn Zone: A Memoir (She Writes Press, 2018). Still on Fire is the sequel. Her mission is to remind people Who They Truly Are and to reignite their passion for being alive.

It was just before the pandemic when I first met Porsha in a song circle in Sebastopol, CA. I was touched by the songs her and co-founder Aaron Johnson shared with our group and how effortlessly they brought us into our hearts. I attended their daylong anti-racism workshop and went on to work privately with Porsha to move through my own grief around racism, look at my own blind spots as a white woman with privilege and come into deeper alignment with how I show up for my work, friends and larger community. I think a lot of white people do end up (sadly) avoiding relationships with people of other races because of the shame and guilt that often arises. When we focus on the fear and guilt, we take the focus away from truly getting to know and caring for person of another race. Porsha is here and reaching for us to heal this divide. May this conversation open a door for us all to look within, to heal, and to create a better future for all the generations to come. In this episode we discussed: * Approaching anti-racism work through song and building relationships * Healing and tending to grief * Letting go of perfectionism and embracing willingness * Spirituality and love at the center of anti-racism and social justice movements * Healing shame to let down barriers and form true relationships * Stories of healing from Porsha’s work * The importance of self-forgiveness * All about Porsha’s upcoming deep dive series, “Can You Hear Me?” (Links below) * How Porsha overcomes fear and doubt and anchors back into her roots and reasons behind this work * A beautiful song to remember our connection to spirit Links in this episode: Join Porsha for one of her upcoming deep dives: * Song Power Hour with Songleader Lyndsey Scott ( September 28 5-6pm PT): https://fb.me/e/1KfDTZtFL * Can you Hear me deep dive 1( October 1, 12-2 pm PT): https://fb.me/e/3QDkZhoMP * Can You Feel Me? deep dive 2 (October 7, 5-7pm PT): https://fb.me/e/20vk01lUX * Can You Hold Me? deep dive 3 (October 15, 12-2pm PT): https://fb.me/e/2JJSm0kRv Stay in Touch with Porsha: * You can connect with Porsha, register for her offerings and learn more about her work at info.canyouhearme@gmail.com * Instagram: @porshabeed * Facebook: porshabeed * Holistic Resistance - https://www.holisticresistance.com * Grief to Action - https://www.grieftoaction.com Stay in Touch with Rising Women Leaders: * Website * Instagram * Patreon Porsha Beed (she/her) is a co-founder of Holistic Resistance and Grief to Action.

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.

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 Stay in Touch with Jane: * Website Links mentioned in this episode: * Jane’s Writing : Your Soul is Screaming: Listen * Faye’s interview on Rising Women Leaders * Faye’s podcast: The Wylder Talks Jane Mayer is a voice and channel for the heart of the Holy One.
