For all my mom or moms in preparation - We have a responsibility to raise healthy masculine men... and the secret to that is not in telling them what to do, but leaning back and embodying our feminine essence. In this episode with Martine De Luna we explore wholeness through the lens of polarity work in motherhood.
In this episode we discuss:
- Impact of testosterone on little boys
- The mother's tone will set the culture and temperature of your family and your husband will respond to that
- Relating to sons we don’t want them to leave the world we’ve created for them and our sons are meant to leave the world that you are
- Have patience - let your sons come through for you let them take their time even if you can do it faster
- The impact of tiger moms /devouring moms
- Impact of shadow and wounding of the feminine on motherhood // good girl and tiger mom template
- When we heal we build right relationship with ourselves.
- Modeling receptivity
- Support your sons to leave and go out into the world of men
- Lens of Single motherhood - ways to role model your feminine being from here
- About Marine’s program Mother of Kings Starts Nov. 29th
- Cherish your daughters and the inner daughter in you
About my guest: Martine De Luna
Martine De Luna is a wife of 16 years, mom of a son and daughter, and also a certified Transformational life coach specifically for women. Her coaching is for women who are ready to learn how to respect the masculine in men, and in her son (for mothers).
Mother of Kings is a live masterclass she is teaching for women who desire to understand how to assume a feminine role (rather than a “devouring mother” role), so that their son’s masculine instincts can naturally be encouraged, which serves them to direct their will to growing up as Men. The class will be taught live, with a replay available for 1 year access (for those

When we reparent our younger parts with unconditional love, we not only heal our inner children, we start to build a relationship and an embodied knowing of unconditional love. AND love as the Holy Mother and Beloved Father, the divine feminine and the divine masculine. These are universal principles/energies that we all have access too. And the imprint of how we start to understand this love from the universe is through the imprinting of our parents. Cultivating a relationship with unconditional love is deeply healing, heals our younger parts, and informs our way of being and loving.
In this solo episode, I share some of the work I do with my clients on healing through cultivating a relationship with unconditional love.
If you have questions or are curious how to work this practice into your life, reach out, work with me 1:1 or join my community.

- 1:1 Coaching - I love love love getting into the thick of what is going on for my clients, both parents and leaders, navigating self talk, and unpacking the root of that self talk. Especially with parents - what we find again and again is the dynamic between child and parent, the child is unconscious absorbing all of our unconscious, unhealed stuff, and its manifesting in them in their own way (ancestral / generational trauma) and that is triggering parents - OF COURSE its triggering parents. Of course the trigger is an invitation to heal - it is red flag waving saying please heal me! And when parents heal - wow - everything shifts. All of the sudden there is more grace, and compassion in the parent - child relationship. Schedule a free discover call to see

What is Naturopathic medicine? How can you get started? In this episode, we interview Dr. Anna Johnson, a wealth of knowledge and experience healing through nutrition and listening to body. Join us for an in depth discussion around the affects of flight or flight on our digestive system, listening to our body/ and find our rhythm, eating based on our blood types, oncology, and more.
Dr. Anna Johnson, a first year resident at HNNH, is a board certified Naturopathic Doctor licensed in the state of New Hampshire. She earned her clinical doctorate in naturopathic medicine at the University of Bridgeport, CT, after completing a Master of Public Health degree with honors at Nova Southeastern University, FL. Prior to her graduate studies she completed a Bachelor of Arts in Molecular, Cellular, Developmental Biology at University of Colorado at Boulder.
Dr. Johnson has a strong passion for global health and has always been drawn to helping underserved populations. For her MPH thesis project, she completed a sustainable water purification system at an orphanage in rural Kenya with the International Health Initiatives. During her undergraduate career she completed medical mission trips with Global Medical Brigades in Honduras and Panama. Her most recent publication includes Project H.O.P.E. (Homelessness in Osteopathic Predoctoral Education), with Nova Southeastern University’s College of Osteopathic Medicine, a curriculum designed to bridge the gap between healthcare and homelessness.
Dr. Johnson found her calling in naturopathic medicine through her personal experience with a lifetime of chronic allergies. For the first time in her life she found relief through diet and lifestyle changes that were introduced to her while traveling abroad. Her decision to specialize in oncology became clear during her second year of medical school when a close family member was diagnosed with a rare blood cancer which, since then, has been managed successfully by naturopathic medicine.
In her free time, Dr. Johnson enjoys painting, hiking, biking, snowboarding, nature, traveling, and spending time with her husband, family and friends.

If you are looking to explore the world of conscious parenting this episode is for you. Sarah Hesketh is the cofounder of Raising Wholeness, with me (your host)! We've been a little off sync with releases the past month, as Sarah, and I have been birthing this new project. When we approach parenting in a reciprocal model, we open to a new orientation where parenting can be the most catalyzing spiritual pathway. In this episode, we discuss moving from compliance-based parenting into reciprocal/conscious parenting which is based in presence and awareness. We discuss the importance of language, specifically declarative language and how beneficial it can be to helping your mini mystics develop the foundations for critical thinking and self awareness as well as the importance of understanding childhood and human development to meet children where they are at in order to nuture their fullest potential and to raise them in wholeness.
Sarah is an ASHA certified Speech Language Pathologist. She has many years of experience working with children of all ages and learning differences. Sarah uses a whole child approach to therapy to support all areas of development. She enjoys getting to the root cause of issues and loves to support the needs of each individual child and family.

In this episode, we explore the practice of pelvic floor work, and how building connection and intimacy with our womb we cultivate deep healing and connection. Sydney Zwicker is a bodyworker and women’s health mentor based in Denver, Colorado. She shares mediation practices, yoni egg practices, the flow and grace associated with following the female hormonal cycle, and the importance of embodying healthy connection with our womb not just for ourselves but for us as role models to future generations.
Sydney’s intention is to give clients and students the tools to journey into wholeness. She believes there is no one way, nor right way to heal. It’s a little bit of this, a little bit of that, and a whole lot of courage. Her passion is to be a catalyst in shedding the stigma of the female-lived experience, through embodiment practices, such as Qoya, Holistic Pelvic Care and Women’s Health Massage. Outside of her in-person bodywork practice, she offers online courses, workshops and 1:1 coaching programs to help women reclaim their essence and embody their truth.

Welcome to the world of Wild Wisdom with Michelle MacEwan. In this episode, we discuss the world of shamanic journeys, and how our connection to both our external and internal nature helps us to build a deep level of intimacy with ourselves, to find our own answers.

Check out this beautiful exploration into council, collective healing, belonging, connecting to our roots, and embracing the shadow. Council creates space for practicing speaking from the heart, opening to spontaneity, and cultivating deep listening. Through council, we hear stories of the collective consciousness of the group, and each story has insights into our own healing. Lillian has used this practice with kids, women's groups, prisons, and corporate America, the benefits of this practice can be applied to anyone looking to build community.
Lillian Söderman has spent over a decade facilitating circles and is certified in a process called Council. She left her career as an Alcohol and Drug Counselor to pursue the practice. Her facilitation experience ranges from the general population to corporations to prisons to schools. When she’s not practicing Council, Lillian is a musician and plays shows frequently around Colorado.

In this episode, we explore spiritual emergence, through the lens of transpersonal psychology, and holotropic states of being. I love how Jay points out the play on words between Spiritual Emergence and Spiritual Emergency. The initiation into our own spiritual awakening is about what is coming in and through us, and often this embodied experience can leave us with a sense of emergency/urgency of how to live from this new way.
In the mid-90s, Jay followed experiences of spiritual emergence into the experiential doctoral program at the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Until transitioning into his roles for Grof Legacy Project, Jay has primarily worked as a lawyer/mediator while teaching and supervising dissertation research in transpersonal psychology. Jay has assisted the facilitation of holotropic breathwork in the US, Canada, UK, India and China and is a certified Grof® Breathwork Facilitator. He will act as a Director and Secretary-Treasurer for the Project and is particularly interested in developing the research branch of Grof Legacy Project, including projects using the lens of archetypal astrology to examine correlations between nonordinary state experiences and indications from transit and natal charts. Jay currently divides his time between Helena, Montana, and Los Angeles. Along with colleagues, Jay will assist in the development of Grof® Breathwork workshops and Grof Legacy Project training opportunities in southern California and various other parts of the United States, as well as developing online programs in Stan's work.

In this episode, we explore the intersection of spirituality and advocacy with Shani Nicole, The Empath Realist. Through her own inner work, integrating shadows, generational and cultural trauma, Shani has built a platform to help others deepen into their spiritual practice in order to come to advocacy work from a healed, centered, and grounded place. Through healing, we embody the change that we seek to create in the world.
Shani is an Artist, Educator, a Creative Consultant, Public Speaker, Spiritual Coach, and Writer and creator of "The Empathic Realist,” a platform to find avenues and access to collective healing and re-education for all oppressed communities around the globe, where she challenges & critiques systems and ideologies through critical thinking, scholarly research, intuitive guidance and by interacting with communities across the globe. These practices allow her to hold space for downloading unbiased opinions by looking through an empathic, compassionate, & humanist lens, in order to uncover the root issues and failures across societies; on a local, national and international basis. As issues / causes are discovered, she uses a variety of creative methods to express them: music, education, poetry / spoken word, ancient healing modalities / practices, and engaging in soulful conversations with others; paving the way for a collective space that approaches solutions in a more spiritual, harmonious, and decolonized way.
Episode Wisdom:
- Inner healing is necessary to call our injustices forward, create cross racial and cultural solidarity, and to create from a place of possibilities.
- Being able to see things from an unbias lens requires us to dig deep and heal ancestral, cultural, and personal trauma in ourselves first
- Coming to advocacy from a place of wholeness - we need to heal the injustices, the identities in ourselves first
- Love and light or enlightenment when you can see the shadows of society
- Colonialism / capitalism = cultural shadows
- We have been forced to be compartmentalized and through that, we lost the true essence of the human self - because we are all so stuck in the constructs of our identities
- Connecting the spiritual with the material - Fusing these two together gives a deeper understanding of what is going on in the world and you can see that changes is possible - get connected to the roots of change

Wisdom from the Podcast:
- Modern psychology is catching up with foundational elements of shamanism
- Working with shadow is essential for mystical awakening
- The world is moving to a beautiful place where we can do deep healing in a short amount of time
- Move to a passionate place that is not hindered by shadow and trauma responses.
- Unconditional loving presence is deeply healing
- The pandemic of modern therapy is projecting on clients - projections are the hardest for people to get
- The rule of thumb with development is to meet people where they are at
- If the healing process is not a natural fluid flow, then I did not get their shape of consciousness right.
- If you are actually fully present with your own vital energy you can’t absorb the toxicity,
- Sense of own Vital essence + skill full means of moving through consciousness + deep presence + clear boundaries (ingredients for transformational psycho-shamanism)
- For healers to realize the client you are working with is not really where you are at really notice where they are and not just run them through a protocol
- Typical holding space + enter into the consciousness of a person, feel and move fluidly applying and protocol people (can be affective) from multiple different perspectives, multiple different developmental levels = deep healing transformation and bliss
- Normal grief is about something you'll never have again in the future, this grief of healing, is griefing something you never wanted in the first place, converting grief into awakening
