009 | Navigating the Teen Years w/Rachelle Garcia Seliga of Innate Traditions Sep 15, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to the 9th episode of the Resonate Podcast!

We are excited to share this thought-provoking and important conversation about the journey of the “middle years” with our pre-teens and teens as a parent!

Our guest, Rachelle Garcia Seliga, is a mother, wife and midwife who is midwifing a cultural shift through her teachings.

She has a deep affinity for the postpartum period and has apprenticed with 17 home birth midwives in Mexico and the US but was surprised to find a void in the teen years transition.

Rachelle highlights how meeting our teens’ “full spectrum of their emotionality” often requires us as parents to really grow up and examine our capacity to be with the full range of human experience without judging ourselves.

These years are an opportunity to ‘step back in’ and re-do what we couldn’t support in our kids when they were younger. She asks, ‘What is innate within us?’

We access the blueprint and map by going within and sourcing personal authority. “This is how we create a living culture!”

Rachelle has been greatly influenced by her ‘spiritual adoption’ in her 20s. Her ‘Godparents ushered her through young adulthood, and this ceremonial path brought her to where she is now.

She now teaches through Innate Traditions, and her work centres around unifying principles, honouring innate wisdom primarily through maternal health and postpartum care. You can find her work here or follow her on Instagram @innatetraditions.

This conversation can help anchor you if you're in the throes of the teen years or offer you rich insight no matter where you are in the parenting journey! Enjoy!

With love, Eleanor and Emma

006 | Intuitive and Conscious Motherhood - A Conversation with Winona Wyborn Aug 04, 2023

Show notes

Welcome to the sixth episode of Resonate by The Reconnected.

Today our guest is Winona Wyborn, a mother of one, content creator, entrepreneur, and community member of The Reconnected.

This conversation centres around intuitive and conscious parenting. Winona shares how listening to her inner knowing led her down a path of an unmedicalized birth, slow living, and more self-confidence in parenting.

Winona reflects on how being a mother can bring more creativity into our lives. And when we slow down, trust more, move away from fear, and come back to our intuition, we can mother with more ease.

This is an inspiring conversation about the power of motherhood and how much healing can come with it if we open to it.

Winona beautifully shares her journey into new motherhood via her Instagram account @winona_wyborn and produces nourishing herbal formulas for mothers at mothers-medicine.com

With love, Eleanor and Emma

005 | Suppress, Deny, Inhibit, Avoid

Welcome back to Resonate by The Reconnected!

In this podcast we discuss one of the most common and deep issues we see parents facing - the suppression, denial and avoidance of feelings.

Most parents can spend their days gritting their teeth or pushing away feelings they don’t want to acknowledge, and when asked, the majority of us say “I don’t have any suppressed emotions, everything is fine."

But the reality is, throughout the day we are creating a stockpile of these suppressed emotions, and layering them deeper and deeper inside our body and mind, creating a cycle of suppression, avoidance and denial of our reality.

Join us in this powerful conversation where we discuss the reality of childhood trauma and how it affects our relationships with our children, the queues to follow to uncover if you are experiencing suppressed emotions, and personal shares from Emma and Eleanor about their experiences of emotional maturity in their children and the lie of ‘perfect parenting’.

With love,

Eleanor and Emma

004 | How to Understand Your Child's Developmental Stage with Naturopath Sarah Mann

Welcome to the fourth episode of Resonate by the Reconnected.

Today, Emma and Eleanor are joined again by Naturopath Sarah Mann to dive deeper into the developmental phases of childhood, and explore navigating these big leaps and transitions.

From our Big Feelings Podcast, we received overwhelming feedback from our listeners' experiences with these developmental stages, and found the most common ages where parents noticed big leaps, feelings and behaviour regressions to be:

3 year olds

7 year olds

10 year olds

16 year olds

Join us as we discuss the Anthroposophical perspective of these developmental stages, alongside personal reflections from Emma and Sarah, Steiner philosophy, how to support our children in these phases and the most common signs of children experiencing these leaps.

We also discuss what is happening internally for children during these phases, both emotionally and physically, and why these are beautiful and essential parts of childhood.

With love,

Eleanor and Emma.

002 | Birth Patterns & Rebirthing Breathwork

Coming off the back of our last episode about the birth of Emma's Miracle Twins, we felt it was the perfect time to bring forth today's episode covering Birth Patterns and Rebirthing Breathwork. The way we are born and the way we give birth has a profound effect on us, as well as, our relationship with others and life itself. Our experience in utero and birth, is the source of our main impressions and conditioning that we hold.

We are both trained in different branches of Rebirthing Breathwork and it is an honour to share with you all a little bit of the history around this style of Breathwork and our personal experiences exploring it through our own practice. We both acknowledge the collective shift we have seen, even in last year, in personal rebirths that are happening and the increase in volume around the topic of birth! What a time to be alive.

How we experienced our birth can impact us our entire adult lives. Even as adults, we can be unconsciously re-creating patterns in our lives that are an expression of our limbic imprint, we call this your Birth Pattern.

To help you on your journey, we have created a Birth Patterns Quiz and it will show you how your birth may still be impacting your relationships, your creativity and the way you view the world.

To try our Birth Patterns Quiz: www.birthpattern.com/sf/0a58c667

We also mentioned a few groundbreaking people in this episode whom are in the Breathwork and Birth field, their details can be found below:

Special Mentions:
Leonard Orr - Founder of Rebirthing Breathwork
Sondra Ray - Author of Ideal Birth
Stanislav Grof - Founder of Holotropic Breathwork
Dr. Bruce Perry - Developer of the Neurosequential Model

Ina May Gaskin - Author of Spiritual Midwifery
