[NorCal Narratives] Trusting the Call: Megan Lambert on Intuition, Motherhood, and Eros

Send us Fan MailWhen was the last time you truly listened to your body's wisdom instead of your conditioned "shoulds"? Megan Lambert, author of "Eros: The Journey Home" and creator of the Los Gatos Mama's Circle, offers a compelling perspective on reconnecting with our intuition and desires."Guilt is the moment when your desire runs contrary to your conditioning," Megan shares, articulating why so many women—especially mothers—struggle to trust their inner knowing. From early childhood, we're taught to follow rules and put others first, creating a disconnect between our authentic selves and our learned behaviors.But what if our desires aren't selfish indulgences but sacred guidance? Megan reframes Eros not simply as romantic love but as "the feminine embodied soul, creative life force" that brings color to our existence. This life force speaks not through logical pros and cons lists, but through our bodies—our gut, heart, and pelvis—and learning to listen requires reconnecting with ourselves below the neck.Through her Mama's Circle gatherings, Megan creates spaces where women can share without judgment, be witnessed in their stories, and remember parts of themselves they thought were lost. Using the beautiful metaphor of redwood trees that appear separate above ground but remain connected through their roots, she illuminates how women can support each other while maintaining their unique identities.Whether you're a mother by birth, adoption, or through nurturing projects, communities, or creative works, Megan's wisdom offers a path back to yourself.

When might you create space to listen to your body's quieter voice?CONNECT WITH RESET 🎙️Podcast: https://www.reset-podcast.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@tonyajlong-RESET LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/company/reset-with-tonyaInstagram:  https://www.instagram.com/resetwithTonyaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61570923056203CONNECT WITH TONYA 🚊LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tonyajlong/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tonyajlongFacebook:  https://www.facebook.com/tonya.j.long/Check out my bestselling book, "AI and the New Oz: Leadership’s Journey to the Future of Work" available on Amazon [https://a.co/d/aTBJmEr].
