Wise Women Diaries stories are rooted in shedding victimhood and shame. We take radical responsibility for our lives: turning pain to wisdom, learning the voice of fear vs intuition, the beauty of healing childhood wounds, and learning how to trust ourselves. Women share their myriad of lessons: how motherhood and marriage can be our spiritual awakening, children are our teachers, and the power we reclaim by stepping out of the medical paradigm in homebirth, freebirth, or ’infertility.’ Email: wisewomendiaries@gmail.com to submit your story

Audrey Ross, (@ajoyfulbirth) a mother of five, birthkeeper, birth prep coach, and a freebirthing woman, shares a condensed version of her life trials that led her to true freedom. She overcame an eating disorder, detoxed off of ~11 Big Pharma medications, healed constant panic attacks, and learned the true power of her mind to finally become her authentic, true self! Audrey had "infertility" for about 10 years with another 5 year lapse of not conceiving later on, but went on to naturally conceive four children. She shares her prophetic dreams from God, being led to foster and adopt children, and how her first two birth experiences led her to freebirth. We talk about how the Mind is the most overlooked component to birth and how when we hire a birth attendant for birth, we are also hiring their subconscious mind with all of their fears! We also discuss German New Medicine and Audrey's current pregnancy.

Friday Mar 29, 2024
Ellen Haines (@healwithellen on instagram), a hypnotherapist, discusses many topics concerning the subconscious mind: how our mind is programmed between the ages of 0-7 which creates most of our auto-pilot reactions in motherhood and marriage, how children's emotions and behavior can trigger rage and judgements within parents, the deep patterns of the man-child husband and the resentful wife, and how it takes courage to face uncomfortable truths to change your life.
Ellen accepts hypnotherapy clients in person in Phoenix, Arizona and online.
