Wise Women Diaries stories are rooted in shedding victimhood and shame. We take radical responsibility for our lives. We have the power to turn pain to wisdom, choose our intuition over fear, break generational patterns, and learn how to trust ourselves. This podcast shares a wide variety of lessons from conscious women: how grief and heartbreak helped us evolve, how children are our teachers, and how we can reclaim our inner trust by stepping out of the medical paradigm in homebirth, freebirth, or ’infertility.’ Follow the host, Lea, on Instagram at @trusting_life_ Email: wisewomendiaries@gmail.com to submit your story

Our Mind Creates False Stories Everyday: Do You Believe Them?
Friday Apr 22, 2022
Friday Apr 22, 2022
Some examples of daily ego stories: "I am failing as a parent because of XYZ," "Who am I to help people if I can't even figure out my own life," "I was so worthless because I got nothing done today," "My child is manipulating me," or "I can't wear this outfit on my date because my date will think XYZ of me......."
We cannot stop the constant flow of false ego stories, but we can CHOOSE to believe them or not, and act from them, or not! THAT'S where our power is!

My Recent “Dark Night of the Soul”

The truth of life is that its constant change. Highs and lows. We ebb and flow from feeling our Light to experiencing our Darkness. I was faced with my Shadow Self recently.......here are my thoughts on that experience.

How I Annoy Myself
Tuesday Jan 18, 2022
Tuesday Jan 18, 2022
A real and honest talk about what I notice about myself in my marriage. I quote my favorite book A Return To Love by Marriane Williamson: “The special love relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you from Heaven on Earth."
**Special note: As I listened to the episode, I definitely laughed at HOW narcissistic the ego is when I said: "when people only post their happiness and gratitude on Instagram, it doesnt help me. It brings me no value." Of course the ego takes the situation of someone posting on Instagram, to make it personal!!!! Oh man! haha! People do NOT have to post on Instagram to help me or my ego. BUT, there is an undeniable truth that when an Instagram influencer uses their platform to share their struggles and not just their pretty hair and outfits, our suffering seems to lessen a bit, or we simply don't feel alone<3

Mothers, it is Time to Step into Your Power
Wednesday Dec 29, 2021

Many mothers outsource their power to doctors..... but also to Instagram influencer moms! This is a disempowered energy state. This is a Mother operating from Maiden energy, the energy of not trusting inner intuition and instead wanting permission and validation from anywhere else, besides yourself. Mothers, its time to take your power back! This begins with learning your Inner Voice and Intuition!
Edited to add: I do believe our real life friends and community serve a beautiful purpose and its natural to want wisdom from wise women to help our situation, but its important to have self-awareness of when we are seeking opinions and advice from a disempowered state vs empowered state. Its important to learn when we crave a "savior" to save us from our situation, when that is an illusion.

A Child‘s Superpower and Why I Think Adults are Crazier Than Kids
Monday Dec 20, 2021
Monday Dec 20, 2021
Being an Enneagram Eight, I use my voice to defend the innocent: children. I truly believe they are Masters in so many ways, yet our culture is so conditioned to view children as "less than" or on a lower pedestal, simply because are new to Earth so they don't have a fully developed adult brain and are not yet conditioned into robots!

Birth Control Without Hormones or Devices = FAM
Sunday Dec 19, 2021
Sunday Dec 19, 2021
FAM: Fertility Awareness Method is a method of birth control that does not involve hormones or devices! Its all about learning the signs of ovulation from your wise, beautiful body to detect when ovulation is happening, to either prevent or achieve pregnancy (using basal body temperature, cervical fluid and/or cervical position). Learning about FAM this year has been the MOST empowering experience for me!!!

The Need to Control is Rooted in Fear
Friday Dec 17, 2021
Friday Dec 17, 2021
We try to control situations/people to try to prevent our worst fears from happening. Example: people pleasing is the attempt to control someone's perception of you, with the fear of someone thinking badly about you! Control is Fear.

Are You Listening To Your Body?
Thursday Dec 09, 2021
Thursday Dec 09, 2021
The body whispers before it tantrums. Most humans ignore their body's signals until they are in their mid-60's diagnosed with cancer or a disease.... THEN they may start supporting, loving, or listening to their body. But our free will allows to to learn from others and not wait until a diagnosis to take our body's signals seriously! Our body sends us messages every single day in the form of feelings, body discomfort, or pain, but are we pausing and listening to what our body may be trying to tell us?
