Ep. 61: Coming home to the body through voice, circle and midlife wisdom - with Phoebe Rose.

What if midlife wasn’t a crisis - but a calling?In this soul-stirring episode, I sit with Phoebe - heart-centred women’s coach, women’s circle facilitator, and voice activation guide - to explore the initiatory nature of perimenopause, the power of voice, and the transformative healing found in circle work.Phoebe shares from her personal journey: From feeling lost and stripped of identity to discovering her creative power through morning pages, voice, and sitting in circle with other women. We talk the power of circle initiation to guide us home to our cyclical bodies and how perimenopause is a rite of passage to remember and reconnect with the wild, intuitive wisdom we’ve long ignored.If you've ever experienced or are experienced at the moment this sense of dissolving, and despair - and yet you know that a deeper part of you is waiting to (finally) emerge and act upon - this episode is for you.In this conversation we explored:- Phoebe`s path: How perimenopause and the unraveling of identity led her to her experience and hold women’s circles and how the experience of losing her sense of self  opened the door to true feminine leadership. Phoebe shared what feminine leadership means to her and how she’s embodying it.- Phoebe`s moment of awakening through singing on  a women’s retreat, and how voice became a channel for healing and creativity.- The wisdom of the cyclical body and how we can return to it after years of living in our heads.- Why sitting in circle is a sacred act of rebellion, a return to ancient feminine ways and how it can guide us home to our bodies.Join my softly rebellious on Substack: Subscribe here.Register for my upcoming free workshop on the 25th of June 2025 about The wild and poetic anatomy of the female body.
