Ancestral Feminine Healing for These Times with Tara Brading ⎸Enter the Portal EP#39

“The ancient grandmothers hold the medicine we need most in these times.” — Tara Brading

What does it mean to truly remember who we are—not just in our personal stories, but in the deep, ancient currents of our ancestral lineages? In this powerful and soulful episode, Jenna welcomes the luminous Tara Brading, a devoted teacher of ancestral, feminine, and earth-based wisdom, to explore the layered journey of reconnecting with our roots, reclaiming our medicine, and becoming good ancestors for future generations.

Tara shares the visceral moment that cracked her open at Stonehenge—an encounter with the ancient grandmothers that changed the course of her life. From the lands of Ireland and England to the spiritual legacy held in our blood and bones, this episode takes us into the profound process of ancestral reconnection. Together, Tara and Jenna explore what it means to walk with grief, with rage, and ultimately with reverence.

This conversation flows like ritual—soft, deep, and reverent. It’s an invitation to slow down, to listen, and to honor the truths held in our wombs, our voices, and the lands our people came from. Tara offers tangible insights on how to begin ancestral work, why specificity matters, and how even small acts of remembrance create ripples through the lineage—past, present, and future.

They explore how grief and intergenerational trauma are not just wounds, but thresholds to deeper healing. Through story, song, and grounded spiritual guidance, Tara reminds us that our connection to our lineage is not about appropriation or escape, but about rooting deeply into the truth of who we are—and who we’re becoming.
