Free the Girls: Recent Episodes
Wrenn Kilmartin
A podcast for women who want to let go at the end of a long day! This is a space for stories of vulnerability, authenticity and inspiration. We all have a story! We all have dreams. Let’s meet, grab a drink, and Free the Girls. Finding support and community. Exploring what makes us come alive!
An interesting new perspective that really got me thinking about the way we view “rest”. Hope you enjoy🦋
Ever feel like your motor is running, your wings are out and you want to fly, but something is holding you back? The idea that we have to be “ready” before we start can hold us back and keep us feeling stuck. Hope this episode is helpful✨
Mistakes are inevitable. Learning from them and moving forward can be challenging. I believe in you!
Savor, indulge, remember. Making memories does not require us to be fancy. Let’s simply allow for time together.✨✨✨
The chaos and noise can get in the way of our peace. Even five minutes a day of quiet can be amazing. Allow this time for yourself to listen for what your purpose truly is.
After a slightly heavy week, I reflect on how we hold so much and often don’t even realize it. Breathe out and enjoy🩷

I see you! Sometimes it’s a struggle to get through the day without wondering if you are getting it right. Stay with it. I believe in you!
Taking a deeper look at ourselves from a different perspective. Showing ourselves hospitality and allowing it to lead us forward, into our true purpose✨✨✨
When you feel whole, there’s nothing else you need to know. Accepting yourself just as you already are, allows you to become LIMITLESS!✨✨✨
A couple of weeks ago I had such a moment of clarity around the idea of freedom. We can choose it! No matter the situation, our thoughts and dreams are ours! Enjoy✨

Finding time for rest and reflection can be challenging this time of year. Prioritize your mental health. A gift to yourself!🩷
This time of year can be chaotic, frustrating, loud. It can also be joyful, peaceful, messy (in the best way). Can we lean in and enjoy the ride?
Today feels hard. When things are uncertain, it’s okay to lean into those emotions and be a human without all the answers. Baby steps, my friend!
Free the Girls is one today! Happy Birthday 🎉 🏃♀️🦋✨💕 Let’s normalize imperfection and authenticity! Also, a little story of a third grader who gets it!🤲🥰
A labor of love that I have dabbled at over the past two years. A few weeks ago, I made the decision to just do the damn thing! Guys, it’s messy, it’s real, it’s me 🤷♀️ It’s also your guided journey to lower your level of chronic stress in your (ONE INCREDIBLE) life!
It’s challenging not to dwell on something we regret doing or saying. But, it does not serve us to keep running through the same unpleasant thing over and over in our heads. Perhaps we can start from where we are and move forward with gratitude and show ourselves grace!
Let’s make it acceptable to let something go. Cut one item off the endless “to do” list and free ourselves to find more delight!
At a time when our world is hurting so much, we can move forward with kindness and still hold space to grieve.
Finding your alignment and building a stronger relationship with yourself! And, introducing a course that becomes available on November 20th! Stay tuned🦋

I’m sharing a tiny bit about our family’s story. If you’re going through a difficult season, I see you. Don’t go it alone. Lots of love and light to you✨
In a chaotic world, let’s find time to put one foot in front of the other and walk alongside our neighbors! There is so much to be learned from simply listening and providing safe space as a community 🦋
Do you have something that happened in your childhood that still lives in the back of your mind and pops up from time to time causing that familiar vulnerability and shame to surface? You are not alone! I want to offer support!
Showing up for ourselves gives others permission to do the same. Know that you are okay if you’re feeling exhausted or depleted. I see you and value you🦋
When we are looking 10 miles ahead to try and spot the big “Red door” that we think is our goal, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and even give up. Don’t Miss the little yellow doors in the everyday. That’s where the magic happens ✨✨✨
Giving yourself permission to relax or decompress after a heavy day is not lazy! It’s medicine for your mind, body and soul🦋
As the new school year is about to begin, can we look for ways to serve and bring a smile? Making a positive impact is such a beautiful gift 🎁! It can be as simple as a smile or word of affirmation or encouragement.
As the summer begins to sneak slowly away over the next few weeks, can we lean into opening up to love? Loving every human. It’s simple but not easy. Give it some thought✨
Each of us is here for a divine purpose. Also, we mess up a lot in the search for said purpose. The key 🔑 is to keep going!
Taking a rest is okay. Let’s remove the guilt that can come from tending to our own needs just because we’ve been conditioned to feel as though we “should” be…. Fill in the blank.
Cutting through a bit of the daily chaos does not have to be anything huge! Baby steps and small rituals are a great foundation for anything you'd like to accomplish!
Are hustle and flow synonyms? They both mean "moving", but the pace is VERY different! Let's explore the differences and talk about how to be in flow more often.
Sometimes, busy is actually necessary. Let go of what you can and move through it, but move back into peace and more stillness as soon as you can.
Often the chaos of everyday life keeps us from tuning in to the quiet. The stillness. It is often in the true stillness that we are able to really listen for that next right step.
An invitation to take 10 minutes and walk out into this world. Engage all your senses and take in your surroundings. Nature has a way of calming us in ways that are so life giving🦋
There is magic in the present moment. Over time, these miraculous moments build our lives! ✨
In 2004 we moved to the mountains from a big city. It was a true leap of faith and it was scary! Anyone relate?
Beginning next week, Free the Girls will be available 5 days a week, but the episodes will be “bite sized”. I’ll be putting out short episodes that you can listen to when you’ve just got a few minutes to fill. A potpourri of subjects and lots of fun!🦋
This moment. This one right here. Where will you go? What lights you up? Why not try something new?
If you believe that a small ritual or item brings you joy or makes you feel empowered, enjoy it! If we are not causing harm to anyone, it will allow us to find pleasure, whimsy, contentment. This can go a very long way toward making us happy with who we are🌝
Taking a leap forward, even a small step, can be scary! Know that the universe is for you. Rest when you need to and lean into that time for reflection and creativity. I see you🦋
Celebrate the small wins and give yourself permission to be human. Love big and jump in puddles with your children. Life is an adventure! Know that you are enough! I see you and support you🐣
We often limit ourselves or believe what we’ve been told about the importance of being realistic. Ugh!!! Reality can be whatever you want to make it! Go for your desires!
Allowing ourselves to feel blue is a healthy way to recognize that sometimes things feel off center or raw. Moving through our feelings and acknowledging their presence can begin to set us back on the path to brightness.
You don’t have to be a complete “Zen master” to find a meditation practice that works for you! Using our senses is a lovely starting place!
It’s time to prioritize your wellness every single day so that you model this for your children, you feel more whole and fulfilled, and you take power of your own life!
It’s vital to reach out when we feel triggered, alone, anxious. Let’s offer each other our love, support and the listening ear of friendship. A beautiful way to begin a new year!
Just beneath the surface, there is often a light flickering that longs to shine! Think about what you love doing. The thing you’d do for free! The thing that others depend on you for. Magic!
Recognizing the peacemakers in your life can offer insight into ways you might emulate their gifts. Life is chaotic this time of year! For example, there’s not a great deal of peace to be found when hunting for the family Christmas tree, despite the “perfect” photos taken! It’s okay if it’s messy🥰
Chaos is often inevitable. He are human, after all. Making space for yourself in the midst of it all can be so life giving!
It’s healthy to take five minutes in a quiet space to breathe and find peace between gatherings. Set boundaries and move at your own pace. Listen to yourself!
As we move into the holiday weekend, let’s seek peace, hold space for those who need it and find gratitude for all that we have. Also, avocados 💕
Take time to connect with others and allow love to manifest change! This world is full of good! Let’s lean in and push the good to the front🤷♀️🌎❤️ People, love your people!
Every time you are vulnerable enough to share your story, it adds value! It can be a life changing gift for you and for others! “If you have the opportunity, you have the responsibility!” Let’s get busy changing this world one honest story at a time 💗
Lists, commitments, chaos. What can we let go of when we allow ourselves to be available for what this infinite universe has to offer us?
We can connect to nature and to each other to offer ourselves a mental and spiritual boost. If you do one small thing that encourages another person today, count it a WIN!
The first “Free the Girls”. We’ll take each other by the hand, share our stories and move forward into what makes us come alive!
