EP43: Nicole Casteel: The Journey of Feminine Becoming | SISTERSONG

I interview Nicole Casteel about the journey toward healing, mother daughter wounds, and becoming your full divine feminine self. ***Nicole Casteel is a classically trained vocalist, transformational guide, and medicine musician. With a Master's in Opera Performance from Texas Tech University, Nicole spent years in classical voice before a profound awakening set her on a different path. Struggling with anxiety, depression, and disconnection, she began a decade-long journey into the healing arts—studying breathwork, sound healing, shamanic practice, and ceremonial traditions with teachers from around the world. She now helps women reconnect with their bodies, intuition, and inner knowing through sound ceremonies, breathwork, and one-on-one healing sessions. https://www.nicolecasteel.com/***Episode Highlights03:00 – Classical opera training & losing the joy of music04:00 – Singing to her father through his death transition08:00 – Saturn return, depression & disconnection from self12:00 – First ayahuasca ceremony & the call to sound healing13:00 – Healing as a spiral path, not a straight line15:00 – What ayahuasca teaches: ancestral healing & the mother wound21:00 – Receiving songs from ancestors & the gift of sound medicine25:00 – Song from the land: "Heartbeat of the Mother"28:00 – Reconnecting with the earth & animism32:00 – Self-trust, intuition & how we get disconnected37:00 – The power of listening & healing the mother wound40:00 – Finding your inner voice & knowing when it's truth45:00 – Pregnancy, intuition & the divine feminine awakening47:00 – Embodiment: learning to feel your feelings50:00 – Breathing into the pelvic floor & Tami Lynn Kent's work53:00 – Healing from trauma & reclaiming your power55:00 – Integrating the victim archetype57:00 – The role of ritual & ceremony in healing1:02:00 – The power of prayer & calling things forth1:07:00 – How to start connecting with your spirituality1:10:00 – Following an inner calling: Nicole's story of moving home1:14:00 – Closing: walking your medicine pathPODCAST LINKS:✨ Podcast Website: https://www.innercalling.org/✨ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/innercalling-with-dr-victoria/id1809177408✨ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4K2khwqNKgs90Hs8vrQenZ?si=41beac3235054354✨ Podcast Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_zIrjdevY1Q91PX5woaNtjTDvell1ZJ8&si=lvYtBD2PHmF3bVAXSOCIAL LINKS:✨ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drvictoriaranade✨ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vchranadeWORK WITH DR.
