#89 Why I’m Back on the Mic (and Off Instagram)

from Sacred Femme Alchemy · host Lisa May Francisco

In this return episode of the Sacred Femme Alchemy Podcast, I open up about my hiatus, what pulled me away, and why I’m choosing to come back now with a new direction for this space.I share candid reflections on:Why I stepped back from Instagram and content creation and why podcasting feels like home againThe fear of being forgotten when we pause, and the rebirth that happens when we returnMy journey of moving through different coaching identities and coming back to what feels most authenticHow my Taoist Feminine Arts training, Kundalini practices, and return to corporate life have reshaped my understanding of the masculine and feminineMeeting my inner masculine filled with discipline, grit, leadership and the burnout that can follow when it’s out of balanceHow my cycle and body called me back into yin, rest, and pleasure as sacred practiceThe messy, nonlinear path of integration, and why leadership (for women especially) needs new models rooted in both power and heartThis episode is less about polished teaching and more about pulling back the curtain, where I am, what I’m learning, and how Sacred Femme Alchemy is evolving.If you’ve ever felt the fear of pausing, struggled with integrating your spiritual practices into everyday life, or wrestled with finding balance between the masculine and feminine within you, this conversation will resonate.
