In this week's episode, I sat down with internationally renowned Celtic teacher and author John Philip Newell and spiritual director Cami Twilling to explore our collective journey from disconnection back to sacred wholeness.

John Philip shared wisdom from his extensive work in Celtic spirituality, illuminating how these ancient traditions honor the feminine divine that has been systematically silenced throughout history. Our dialogue explored how the divine feminine has been suppressed, and the healing that occurs when we reclaim these forgotten ways of seeing and being.

We spoke candidly about the unique challenges women face when reclaiming their authentic power—the ancestral silencing that lives in our bodies, the fear of being "too much," and the conditioning that teaches us to doubt our inner wisdom. We discussed how the patriarchal structures in religion, business, and society have disconnected us from our cyclical nature and the deep knowing that resides within.

Cami shared a beautiful grounding practice specifically designed to help you reconnect with your body's wisdom and the earth's rhythms amidst the busyness of life.

Whether you're feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling to maintain spiritual practices in a busy life, or simply seeking a more meaningful relationship with the natural world, this conversation offers both inspiration and practical guidance for your journey home.
