Menstrual wisdom, rites of passage, ancestral healing, and sisterhood in this guest episode with Jane Anna Devin.What if some of the challenges women face today are not isolated experiences, but part of a much bigger story?In this guest episode, I sit down with Jane Anna Devin, mother, Red Tent carrier, nature based guide, and women's rite of passage mentor, for a rich and heartfelt conversation about womanhood, healing, and the wisdom that has been lost through generations.Together, we explore the role of Red Tents and women's circles, the power of being witnessed through life's transitions, and why reconnecting with our cycles, our bodies, and each other can be so deeply healing.We also discuss the stories many women inherit around menstruation, shame, and womanhood, and how we can begin to create a different experience for the girls and women who come after us.Whether you are navigating motherhood, peri-menopause, menopause, or simply feeling called to reconnect with yourself on a deeper level, this conversation offers a gentle invitation to remember what has always been within you.In this episode, we explore:• What a Red Tent is and why women have gathered in sacred spaces throughout history• The importance of women's circles, sisterhood, and community• Menstrual wisdom and healing our relationship with the menstrual cycle• The impact of our first experiences of menstruation and womanhood• Ancestral healing and the stories we inherit through our maternal line• Why rites of passage matter and how they shape our lives• The connection between menopause, identity, and transformation• Yoni steaming, cyclical living, and womb connection• Working with the land and nature as a source of healing and guidance• Simple ways to begin this work for yourself at homeConnect and work with Jane:Heart of Avalon PilgrimageWomen of the EarthIf this conversation resonated with you, please share it with a sister, daughter, mother, friend, or any woman who would benefit from hearing it.Thank you for listening.
