Fed up with feeling imprisoned, small, sinful…? Feel that there is more to Mother Mary than you have been told? The judging God doesn’t sit all that well with you? Welcome to the Living with Mary Podcast! Hi, I am Branka. Among other things, I am Mother Mary’s channel, voice & messenger on Earth. Weird, huh? Yeah, I thought so too. I grew up resenting religion and thinking Mother Mary is either a fictional character or some 'holier than thou' being whom I didn't want to have anything to do with. Imagine my surprise when I learned that I was a Mother Mary's channel on Earth! In Season 1, I share my story and Mary as I know her. I also bring you Mother Mary speaking through me so you can feel and get to know her for yourself. There is other great stuff, like Mary's take on sin, a how to on transforming Catholic guilt into love and more, so if you are just joining, there is so much for you to dive in :-) In Season 2, which is now unfolding, I dive into the juicy topic of sex and how this relates to Mary. I continue with the Ask Mary series, bring you inspiring guests, and much more… I am only getting warmed up!

Whether you have listened in the past, will continue to come back, or will come across this podcast in the future, I bow to you and I THANK YOU.

The Living with Mary Podcast is now complete.
In a desire for an ever-deepening relationship with Mother Mary, I share from the book Truly Our Sister by Elizabeth Johnson. In particular, I look at the idealization of Mary and the three main roles she was cast in, the handmaiden, the virgin, and the mother, and the detrimental effects this has had on women. I suggest that by liberating Mary - in our minds - from these roles we can liberate ourselves. I also touch upon Johnson's quest for the historical Mary and positioning her in the communion of saints, but invite us to continue discovering Mary for ourselves.

There is so much to unravel on this topic so that today's episode makes a tiny dent in it. I share why this is an important question to me, what other questions are connected to this and why and where I am with this inquiry now. I also invite you to drop into your heart and ask Mary about who she is to you so that you can deepen your own conscious relationship with her based on your experiences and your heart's truth.
I always love hearing about your thoughts, feelings, insights, and experiences, so if you feel like sharing how this podcast resonated with you or not, please do.
Thank you for listening!

In this inspiring, informative, rich, heart-warming, and old-beliefs-and-patterns-provoking interview, I speak with Kate McElwee and Katie Lacz from the Women’s Ordination Conference. These courageous women each share their fascinating story and passion for the equality of all genders within the Roman Catholic Church. We hear about uncovering and sharing what the Vatican has hidden, what it’s like to work for this revolutionary cause, and why Kate and Katie choose to do this against the overwhelming odds. And much more!

I start off with a sentence that I don’t celebrate Christmas and end up realizing that I celebrate Christmas all year long! In this episode, I take you to my grandma’s for Christmas and to my husband’s family big, festive Christmas celebrations. I reminisce and inquire how come celebrating Christmas on the 25th of December is not important to me and how I, nevertheless, feel its importance. I end up, where else, but in the arms of Mother Mary who is always guiding me, and all of us, towards more LOVE. Merry Christmas!

This interview is a glittering bundle of joy and a deep dive into the Divine Feminine and her many hues. Whitney Freya, a modern day mystic, artist, inspired living expert and author, teaches at the canvas how to be in love: how to love yourself and the painting unconditionally, how to receive the subtle intuitive guidance, and how to connect to the most authentic personal expression.
Whitney Freya shares with us her beautiful wisdom and experience as we explore: the old and new stories around creativity, how to find joy in the midst of darkest moments, what our purpose on Earth, and much more. We learn about how the Divine Feminine helped Whitney to claim her power back during and after her divorce, and she takes us on a sweet journey to Spain to meet Mother Mary as she met her there.
Whitney Freya is a vessel through which Divine Love pours and this is palpable throughout this inspiring and buzzing conversation. Jump into the magic and soak it in!

A beautiful, powerful transmission from Mother Mary about Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine, where we are in our evolutionary journey, and how we can remember, embody, and serve the Divine Feminine on Earth. As usual, Mary brings us back to the simplest yet most powerful thing in the Universe - LOVE.
This episode was inspired by a question from a listener as part of the Ask Mary series. Thank you dearest for your question!

How come Western society is obsessed with sex yet there are all these underlying layers of shame, guilt, fear, power dynamics, and ignorance that perpetuate sex as bad even when it feels good? Listen to today’s episode and hear my take on this and what I believe we can do to heal our past and present and move into the future in which we fully and freely enjoy the gifts of sexual energy!
Mother Mary encourages us to live our lives based on love. I believe that talking about sex is a way forward to living our lives based on more and more love. Let’s get to a place where we meet a friend for a cup of coffee and it’s totally normal that we say out loud: wow, I’ve had such a great orgasm last night! And everyone who overhears us thinks: wow, that’s so amazing!
If this resonates with you, let me know! I would love to hear your stories on the subject!

“There is no sin”, Mother Mary tells us, challenging religious institutions and structures that we have lived within for a very long time. She knows this, of course, and in Her beautiful, loving, non-judgmental way She simply tells us that She is here to “call on all that does not come from Love” and that what we do with this is up to us. Listen to Mother Mary’s message of Love and, if you will, let the idea of sin “be washed away like a pebble from a shore” and “let your heart lead the way through Love”.
If you resonate with Mother Mary’s message on no sin and wish to share it, please do, and also rate/review the podcast – this helps others find their way to it :-)

“By honoring Waters, you honor Life. By honoring Life, you honor Yourself.” This is part of Mother Mary’s message for this week and in this episode I bring you Waters of Life – Embodiment Meditation that She has guided me through today. The meditation starts at 4 min 50 sec. It is a beautiful meditation that can help you relax and connect with the Waters of Life within and out, so you can bring the qualities of the Water that you wish to embody into your life. It also helps you to learn from the Water what is yours to learn at this moment on your journey on Earth.

Want to transform your Catholic guilt into love? I talk about this from my own experience and from what I have observed working with others. This may be useful to anyone, but it can be particularly useful if:
- you've grown up Catholic (to whichever degree)
- feel bothered by the Catholic dogma (to whichever degree), and
- want to do something about it

Ever felt a separation between the part of you who knows about Spirit and the part of you who doubts? I have lived with this rift within me for a very long time. I share with you here how I recently brought the two parts of me together and the fruits that this union has brought me. I hope that this could be useful to you! I also share how I see these individual-level rifts reflected in our society at large and how bringing ourselves more into wholeness can, I believe, be helpful to the collective.

How can Mary bear our suffering? In contrast to my tigress mother instincts of fighting for my young or against cruelty and abuse in the world, Mary bore Jesus’ suffering and death through being there for him in love. She does the same for us. I speak about this, sharing also a story from my recent healing of some very broken pieces of myself. Mary’s ability to transform suffering into love never ceases to astound me!
Fear of persecution is carried deep within many of us. As a channel for Mother Mary, where the simple saying of this could, in some countries, have me persecuted under anti-blasphemy laws, I have had to learn to use this fear as a teacher. Standing in my truth is challenging, but not being true to myself so as not to disturb the current order of things, I know would have been way worse. In this episode I share some of my story and insights related to this topic.
Listen to Mary’s and Branka’s encouragement to love your body. There is much healing that needs to occur globally and individually related to the human body, but now is the time when we have great opportunity to do this. Mother Mary comes through with Her powerful message about loving our body and developing oneness consciousness through allowing the full merging of the body and spirit.
When the going gets rough, taking care of oneself can easily fall by the wayside, but it is exactly then that I feel it’s needed the most. Allowing myself to listen to my needs and giving myself that which I need is an ongoing process, but also one that’s incredibly rewarding. Mother Mary’s energies of acceptance, nurturing and softness play a key role for me in this process. I’ve included at the end an incredibly simple breathing practice Mother Mary has taught me that is designed to open up the space for gently and compassionately taking care of oneself. See how you like it :-)
Have you ever prayed for a miracle and not received that which you have with your entire heart hoped to receive? Listen to Branka’s story about the incredible heartbreak she experienced after opening herself up to praying for a miracle, and why she would do it all again.
Would you like to commune with Mary? Let yourself have this gift of simply being with Mary. Branka speaks about what she means by communing with Mary, what are some hurdles we may place between ourselves and communing with Mary, and how to start your own communion with your beloved Divine Mother. This episode also includes a guided practice for communing with Mary. The practice starts at 12:23 min and is just under fifteen minutes long. Enjoy!
As the New Year starts to unfold in front of us, we are probably quite aware that we have no idea what it’ll bring. Given this invitation to learn to live more with the unknown and to embrace the Great Mystery of Life as at it unfolds on Earth, Branka talks about choices and working together with all parts of herself so that she can have more trust, both in the unfolding of the unknown and in herself, while living the craziness and the amazingness of life on Earth.
In the wake of a devastating earthquake that hit some 20 miles from where she lives, Branka Valcic shares her experience of the earthquake and the incredible solidarity that followed it. Even though we have screwed up our Earth home badly and our human family is more like an abusive family, Branka speaks about her hope for humanity and outlines steps we can take to turn things around.
Mother Mary’s dark face calls us into the depths of our experiences on Earth. Through Her dark face She invites us into the unconditional light and love, and the ecstatic rapture of the everyday life seen and felt through the eye of the heart. In this episode, Branka Valcic speaks about the Black Madonna and how She helped her find understanding and a feeling of wholeness.

Bonus to Being with Pain. This is a sweet and powerful channeling of Mother Mary to help you feel Her love, and through this to open your heart to yourself and your love and to truly know that you are one with ALL. You’ll want to be sitting or laying down for this one, as Mary takes you deep, high, and wide into that which She knows your heart truly longs for. So, get ready, kick back and enjoy your time with Mary!
In this tender episode Branka Valcic shares about her living with pain, and what is it that helps her in times of struggle. Pain and suffering are part of life on Earth now, and have been for a very long time. While we strive to help ourselves and others, we may take refuge, at least for a moment, in allowing things to just be. Accompanying this episode is a channeled episode called Time with Mary.
Whether we were raised Catholic or not, the feeling of guilt and the related deep-seated unworthiness is part of our energetic make-up as a human being. In this episode of Living with Mary, Branka Valcic shares her own emotional experience of healing the Catholic guilt and transforming it into something utterly sweet and precious.
With humor and candidness Branka Valcic speaks about how she found out that she was going to be a channel for Mother Mary, how that made her feel, how she fought it and why, and how in the end she said yes to this challenging, but incredibly rewarding path.
The first episode of Living with Mary podcast offers an opening into the amazing consciousness of Love that Mother Mary brings us. Branka Valcic tells a story of her growing up in a Catholic country and resenting religion and Mother Mary who seemed to be looking at her from high up on a pedestal. Branka shares how she got to a place where she had her first conscious glimpses of Mother Mary's energy and love later on in life and how she felt when that happened.
