The Untethered Series #6: We Bought our Dream Property in Sweden
The Spiritual Feminist
Welcome to the 150th episode of the podcast! It's not like I have timed these things, but it just so happens I have something major to share with you - we found our dream property in the north of Sweden! Life has been an absolute rollercoaster ever since, and in this episode, I tell you all about it. I talk about the day the butterflies came back and other signs I received, as well as the synchronicity of Aries season & the Spring Equinox for this chapter in my life. Above all, I'm experiencing a level of depth and spirituality on my journey that is unlike anything else. In this episode, I...

Slow Living vs. Feminism: Between My 'Boss Bitch' and 'Moss Bitch' Eras
The Spiritual Feminist
This week, I wanted to share the Substack I wrote in 2023 about how my feminism and my desire to live a slow, simple life might be at odds with each other. When I reread this piece the other day, I realised how apt it was for the phase I (still) find myself in right now and I wanted to share it on the podcast as it resonated so much still and wanted to open up the space to muse on it further with you. I find it so interesting (and perhaps a little scary) to observe how the online spaces about slower living and homesteading are becoming dangerously close to right-wing, tradwife content - which...

The Untethered Series #5: Spring Equinox & the In Between
The Spiritual Feminist
It is the Equinox - a time of 'in between', a snapshot in time of stillness and divine balance, and also a marker of a change in season. A time of 'not quite', and equally a time of planting seeds and transforming our energy by letting a little bit of Yang in. This liminal space is marked here in Sweden by 'vårvinter', literally 'spring-winter', the season in between. We have the warmth of the sun and the longer days already, but it is also still snowing at times and the ground is still frozen. This season here is teaching me a lot about pausing, surrender and how stillness can stir so...

The Untethered Series #4: Grief and Gratitude | To Love and To Let Go
The Spiritual Feminist
I've been experiencing grief and sadness lately, and in this episode I muse on how I was able to hold myself in those waves of raw human emotion and feel safe within that too. I truly believe you feel the depths of your emotions to the extent you’re able to hold them, even if it doesn’t feel like that in the moment. What you do need, however, is space. Space to feel, space to listen in, space to be. And yes, this is a privilege, but also a basic human right & need! To know grief is to know love, and in that regard I am so grateful to have been experiencing this heaviness. I...

The Untethered Series #3: Living Intuitively
The Spiritual Feminist
What does it mean to live intuitively? If the past six months of life have shown me anything, it's that I'm much closer to doing so than before. In this episode, I reflect on how I've gotten to the point where trusting myself is now my norm, and how I've learned to letting life flow. To me, living intuitively means stepping back from time to time and letting life take over. Daring to let life unfold as it's meant to and not force or pressure anything that isn't aligned. It's not easy - but it can be simple. I hope that with this instalment of the Untethered series, you will find...

Presence: My Word of 2025 and Yearly Reflections
The Spiritual Feminist
It's time for our annual reflection & intention chats! Recording this a little later than usual, but I did want to continue the tradition of this yearly episode where I talk about my reflections of the past year and my word & intentions of the new year, so I'm happy that I found some time and space to do so! As always, I dive deep into the energy of what I wish to embody in this upcoming year and the lessons I learned in the past year. Equally, I talk about what I'm proud of, where I'm at in life & what I'm looking forward to in 2025. My word of the new year is 'presence'...

The Untethered Series #2: Softening into the Remainder of the Year
The Spiritual Feminist
Can we all soften a little more in the imperfect present? I've been sitting with this deep invitation during the past couple of weeks, as I find myself in an in-between phase in life and dealing with the messiness of it all! In today's episode of the Untethered series, I invite you to come as you are and muse with me on how we can approach the remainder of the year with softness, devotion and a sense of grounding. I talk about how I found myself in a freeze state upon returning to the Netherlands and how setting up a 'self care schedule' has given me the framework to get myself out it. I also...

The Untethered Series #1: The Balance between Freedom and Grounding (& a big life update!)
The Spiritual Feminist
Hi dear sister! I'm back on the podcast with a brand new series titled 'Untethered'. In this series, I explore where I'm at right now in my life, how I'm finding moments of grounding whilst doing vanlife fulltime, and what my lived experience of spirituality currently looks like. In this first episode, I catch you up on my year, talk vulnerably about why I stepped away from - and pressed pause on - the Spiritual Feminist (and the power of quitting), why I feel called to come back with the podcast and how my word of the year, 'space', has been serving me so far. Oh, and I also talk...

A Spacious Year: My 2024 Word & Yearly Reflections
The Spiritual Feminist
It's the annual reflective episode where I dive deep into how my word of the year served me for this past year and looking forward to setting intentions and receiving a new word of the year for 2024! Even though I have taken a step back from creating content, I really didn't want to miss this tradition. So, in this episode: I catch you up on my life and plans for 2024 I reflect on this past year using my favourite reflective tools and talk about how my 2023 word 'devotion' has served as a red thread I talk about how the word 'space' will probably be my 2024 word and the...

Hi Saturn Return: Turning 29.5 & Absolute Recalibration
The Spiritual Feminist
I've officially entered my Saturn Return and, totally *on brand*, I've been going through many shifts! In this episode, I talk about what Saturn return means and how it's affecting me right now. I muse on why I'm taking a step back from entrepreneurship, how for the first time in my life I don't need to know what's next (or plan it) and how my creativity is pouring back in. This episode is a little different than usual, as it is me reading out loud my first ever Substack piece. I love writing, always have and probably always will, and this new venture feels very exciting. Make sure you...

Intuition by definition is a scary thing in a world that is based on rational structures and frameworks.
We are so conditioned to believe that trustworthy has to equal dependable and calculable. So, let this be your invitation to come back into alignment. Do you feel a nudge from within to take an intuitive step, but feel scared to listen to it? This peptalk is for you!
I talk about…
1. What it means to go beneath the fear you're feeling - and using it as fuel .
2. How you can be rooting back into alignment, taking your time, and giving yourself a loving kick up the butt too.
3. How considering the alternative can be motivating too.
Above all, I hope this episode will show you that you're definitely not alone when you feel a little afraid of trusting your intuition - but that you are deeply worthy of doing the brave thing and exploring the aligned decision in your life. Take the leap of faith, step by step, and come back to the knowing that there is a reason that you feel the nudge. You got this, sister!
