Rochelle Townsend
Do you feel lost? Do you have a hard time recognizing yourself and who you've become? Do you hear the words "healing, journey, self-development" and have no clue what that even means or how you can even apply it to your current situation? The time for you to discover who you truly are and how to find that path back to your true self is here, right in this moment. If this is you, you've come to the right place. And if you're not quite there yet, but find other people's journey's inspiring, this is the place for you. Join me every week as I share my own journey, thoughts, insights.
WHEW! What a year this has been! Welcome to 2024 and I am so grateful for all of it!
Today's episode I talk about the physical changes I have been seeing, as well as the emotional changes. I am finally feeling like my wings are out of the muck and I am emerging into the bright light.
If you are at all interested in learning more about how I have transformed my life through meditation, send me a note! I'd love to see how I can help you transform your own life. Much love. xoxo
In this episode I talk about listening to your heart's desire. Your "heart voice" is your intuition, your soul - hearing what she has to say is your inner compass guidance.
It came to me in my morning meditation that listening to my heart's desire in EVERY aspect of my life is my path - you don't get to pick and choose which areas you listen to your heart and which areas you don't. Getting crystal clear on what your heart is telling you and then acting accordingly is your destined path.
My heart's desire is to help other women on their own journey. There was a time when I had no clue what I was doing. I felt lost - I didn't even recognize myself anymore. I pieced together what I now know to be the start of my spiritual journey. Looking back, it would have been so helpful if someone guided me on this. Told me which meditations to start with, which podcasts to listen to, which books to read, what questions to ask during meditations. I pieced it all together myself - and I know from the depths of my heart that this is what I here to do - help YOU find yourself again. Find your heart's voice, listen to what she has to say. And the only way to do that is to center yourself through meditation.
Let me help you. Let me guide you. I'm offering a course - 90 Days of Zen - and it's like $25 per week. I'll give you recommendations on which meditations to start with. What journal prompts to start with. What questions to ask during meditations. Being able to calm yourself before the start of a crazy day has moved mountains for me.
We start next week - I'd love for you to join us:

Today I did a deeper dive into my memories, my grandmother, how it all tied back together, and the glimpses from my artwork.
As I state at the beginning of the episode, these are MY memories, how I remember them to be true.
Thanks for listening. Much love.
OMG! The synchronicities are too good not to share today!
Between my meditation, my archetype design, journal entry, and cover of my journey, for crying out loud - all of it! Had to share!

Ashleigh Renard, Author of Swing, and is called "The Carrie Bradshaw for married people" is my guest today. If you want your marriage to feel more connected, more passionate, and more supportive, you have to start somewhere. And as Ashleigh says, we might as well start in the bedroom.
Our conversation today highlights Ashleigh's spiritual journey and how she turned inwards to discover what was really missing from her marriage. She credits her spirituality as her guiding light through her marriage, motherhood, and business owner.
Swing, A memoir of doing it all - is a must read.

Today's episode is more reflections from the past couple of weeks after moving out of my marital home.
It's been heavy, but oh so good. A lot of shadows coming to light.
In this episode, I discuss the changes and realizations here as of late in my own personal relationship with my husband.
At the end of day, the same patterns, fights, thoughts, reactions repeat for years until you figure out the root cause of the problem. Once you can figure out the root of the issue, that is when the game changes and traction is finally able to be made.
The book I discuss in the episode is Heal Your Body by Louise Hay and can be found here. It's a game changer, for sure.
As always, thanks for listening to my journey. If you're at all interested in learning more of what I have done to transform my 42 years of existence into the healed version of myself, send me a DM on Instagram. I can be found @rochelletownsend.pottery.
This week's episode features the beautiful, Christine Fiske.
Christine shares her journey of her own spiritual path, how she figured out what the repeating cycles that were not longer server her were, and how to turn inwards to course correct. By listening to her heart, she discovered the path she was destined and since then, it's been one opportunity after another, further proving when you are in your alignment, the Universe responds.
Christine is an intuitive leadership coach and the co-founder of the wealth strategy group, the Abundant InvestHer. She's driven by supporting women (and a few good men) to tap into their innate power and realize the life of their dreams, both in their mindset and by overcoming limiting beliefs, and through financial tools that create wealth in unconventional ways.
Prior to both she had a career working in venture-backed startups where she fostered her love of building companies and learning how to run them. Christine’s journey has provided her with a wealth of experiences including navigating challenging transitions where the most valuable lessons are often learned.
She holds an MBA and BS from Boston College where she captained the women’s rowing team. Late in her career she realized personal growth and development taught her more than any formal education ever could. She has been a student of leadership and company culture since her early career, and uses the power of mindset, a blend of feminine and masculine energy, and creating vision as tools to help her coaching clients thrive. She resides outside Boston with her husband and 3 children.
Definitely give her a follow on Instagram: @thechristinefiske

WHEW! This is a doozy! In this week's episode I reflect back over the past year and allll the realizations I have made. The dots I have connected. It's been a zigzag of a journey, but one that has taught me so much of myself and who I am.
Through all of this journey, I also realized I was really on a quest to figure out who I was. What my purpose is in life. I wanted to know me, like my soul. Not the hats that I wear - but ME. Who was I in the depths of my soul - that was really the quest I was on. It wasn't until this past week did I have the foresight to acknowledge what it was that I was actually doing. What my calling is.
5 Feather Tribe is group of women empowering each other to figure out exactly who you are and what you were placed here on this physical earth to do. I would love to teach you all that I have learned so that you, too, can unleash the goddess within you, allowing your destiny to shine through.

In this episode I collapse time from March to about November of 2023 - and compile all the insights, memories, and realizations I had regarding my Grandma. I must state this is my truth as I remember it from my meditations. What others say, think, do is beyond my control. **Trigger warning - please listen with care and preferably, adult ears only.
This episode I fill you in on what happened once I returned to Kansas City. After my MDMA journey, that opened the flood gates to pandora's box and the memory that came through within the first week of returning was just the beginning to the memories that would unfold over the course of the next 8 months.
Once again - trigger warning.
Please note this episode contacts explicit content that is intended for mature audiences. Trigger warning for sure!!
This episode I discuss my MDMA journey and what all unfolded. Little did I know at the time, this was just the start to my spiritual journey that has now gone deeper and more profound than I could ever possibly imagine.
In this episode I discuss my experience with Kambo, the intentions I set prior, the physical response my body had during the Kambo ceremony, and my reflections afterwards.
As always, thank you for listening!
This week I de-railed from the planned episode of what happened once we got to Costa Rica and spoke from my heart instead.
It's ok to not be ok - let yourself feel whatever needs to be felt and be ok with however long that takes.
In this episode I discuss why we chose Costa Rica, how the trip came together, and what I learned how to do while I was there.
Also, if you're interested in knowing the resort we stayed out, I can not recommend this enough! https://bodhitreeyogaresort.com/
