Walking the Marsh: Mothering, Endings & the Call of the Feminine - Podcast Episode 025 of the Know Thyself Podcast.

Walking the Marsh: Mothering, Endings & the Call of the Feminine - Podcast Episode 025 of the Know Thyself Podcast.Out on Stephanie’s beloved marsh, we record a walking, talking medicine conversation about the parts of us that resist what we most need. We name the weight of modern motherhood, the grief of endings that weren’t properly honoured, and the ache for a real village. We talk Virgo-season “go-go-go” vs. the feminine pace of nature, why art and slowness can trigger guilt and perfectionism, and how barefoot earth, birdsong, and a good scream in a field can soothe a fried nervous system.Expect honesty, humour, and a few F-bombs as we touch on: being a single mum in a broken system; allowing support; September cycle energy; full-moon/eclipse endings and new beginnings; receiving Mother Nature; and the permission to choose creativity over crumbs and shoulds. If you’re navigating resistance, craving community, or remembering how to live at human speed, walk with us.Key themes: resistance to the feminine, mothering vs. being mothered, honouring endings, nervous system care, creativity without perfection, seasons & cycles, village energy, nature as teacher.Content notes: strong language; frank talk about motherhood and frustration.CTA: If this resonated, share your “village moment” or a nature practice that’s helping you—tag me or send a voice note. Big love.You can find Stephanie at: https://open.spotify.com/show/26tT3N4RcJd69YtPTHv533?si=5zokfu-GR_GeOfm637bXYw
