Reclaiming Your Divine Femininity & Healing From Inherited Wounds with Nicole Casteel

In this episode, I'm joined by my friend, Nicole Casteel—a medicine musician and sound healer—to talk honestly about womanhood, and the journey from trauma and disconnection to embodiment, finding your voice, and developing your own relationship with spirituality as a source of resilience and connection.

In this conversation, we discuss: 

• The healing power of music and the ancient tradition of using sound to heal 

• Indigenous medicines & shamanic tradition guiding the path to healing your spirit 

• Healing as journey along a spiral path, rather than a straight line 

• An animist framework for relating to ancestors (& what animism is)

• Creating an ecosystem of love within yourself to make healing safe

• Learning how to inhabit your body again & make it home

Nicole Casteel: So much of this work, whether it's the medicine, ancestral healing, embodiment therapy, it's reclaiming ourselves. We're reclaiming our innocence. We're reclaiming the pure parts of us that are not a part of that conditioning, but having compassion–really having so much compassion for ourselves and love and acceptance that really starts to build that bridge back to ourselves. I'll say to my clients all the time: you have to be a safe space for yourself. If you're always trying to fix or make parts wrong, you're not creating an ecosystem of love within yourself.
