Intuitive Healing with Holly Ramey Sep 28, 2020

Show notes

The healers get witchy in this episode of Wild Healers. We are honored to interview Holly! Holly Ramey is an intuitive Tarot reader, a Reiki Master (and Dr. Galaske’s Reiki teacher), an over 1,000hr yoga certified practitioner, and Chakra worker. Holly has been a healer for over 15 years and has so much deep knowledge and wisdom to share with Megan and Sara. Sara feels a close connection with Holly, being an assistant at her birth. Megan feels honored to have Holly, who gave her her Reiki Attunement and training. Holly delves into various forms of energy and intuitive healing, and answers the question of this is too “out there” for you.
PLUS the healers get a LIVE tarot read on-air with Holly...and the results will surprise you and give some more insight into your hosts.

Wellness Culture with TRILUNA Sep 14, 2020

Show notes

Your hosts Sara Rosser and Dr. Megan Galaske were fortunate to interview the founders of TRILUNA Wellness, Ashley Brooke James and Elizabeth Moore. Join them as they discuss community, corporate and individual wellness that surpasses the boundaries of “wellness culture”. If you’re tired of being fed a version of this industry that is exclusive, inaccessible and one-size-fits-all, then we invite you to join this conversation. We’ll dig into necessary conversations about reforming and demanding justice in a culture that once thrived on elitism.

Back to School Part 3: Camp School Aug 31, 2020

Show notes

Dr. Galaske makes a personal announcement on this special episode of Wild Healers.
Dr. Megan Galaske and her husband Nathan are excited to announce their new online community for busy parents adjusting to schooling from home this year- Camp School. http://www.thecampschool.com They provide an interactive daily schedule, community, and enrichment courses in everything from axe wielding to ballet lessons. They have a passion for leading families from overwhelm to survival. They are ready to guide others, just as they have worked so hard this year to keep their own family afloat.
From Dr. Galaske:
I'm not going anywhere-not away from Wild Healers. Sara and I still have so much to say about the current state of healing, and we are so grateful for the opportunity to share our musings here with you.
Leaving clinical practice was a difficult decision-one that's been a year in the making. I've been waiting for the right time to tell you all, and that time is now.
I may not be leaving forever, but for now, this is what my family-and I- need. I've been keeping this close to my heart since I resigned in February of 2020-3 weeks before COVID-19 hit. I felt my duty as a doctor during this trying time continue to call me to the practice of medicine for all these months. But now it's finally time to leave.
I believe in my intuitive Knowing that I am on this earth to help families and children. My path has led me down a very windy road-one that I honestly have not understood at multiple times during my life. But I know it has led me to just where I'm supposed to be. I'm honored you all have let me into your lives and I will continue to serve you where you need me. I hope as we all learn what it truly is to die to ego and to self daily, and to resurrect the True Self, that I can continue to grow and change and learn from you all and that I can be a conduit of love in whatever way I am blessed to be able to. Thank you all truly, it is an honor to love you and feel your love back in return.

Back to School Part 2: Good Touch Bad Touch Aug 17, 2020

Show notes

As we have our children in our homes, have them possibly around others outside the home (2020 will end one day...), and send them to school, how can we discuss our autonomy over our bodies in an effective way? It's a conversation we all need to be having, yet sometimes it feels so difficult to navigate we can find ourselves avoiding it. Maybe we feel uncomfortable due to the way we were raised or taught. Maybe we have experienced trauma ourselves and bringing it up is painful. We hope to provide support and ideas for you in this episode, by approaching a delicate task in a way we hope empowers you and your family.

Back To School: Part 1 of 3 Aug 03, 2020

Show notes

Homeschool! Masks! Public School! Ahhh! The next seemingly overwhelming but potentially transformative step in this pandemic is deciding what to do with our children’s schooling. What’s best for our family? What’s best for health? What’s best for the economy? What’s best for my immunocompromised neighbor? What’s best for me?! In a world of never-ending swirling questions that sometimes make it feel like we are more opposite than ever, we remember: We are more alike than we are different.

Mid 2020 Check Up Jul 13, 2020

Show notes

2020, the year of rebirth.
Your hosts check in on each other, in the midst of global upheaval. It’s a picture quite different than they had anticipated for the year they started this journey—but perhaps the perfect time for surrendering to birthing pains of a new world. As Dr. Galaske and Sara open up about how they feel during a global pandemic and social revolution, they give each other (and hopefully you) encouragement to keep up the fight even when weary. We are just, as Ram Dass said, walking each other home.

Racial Disparities in Healthcare (Installment 2 with Dr. Kooka Joseph) Jun 29, 2020

Show notes

In our continuing mini series "Racial Disparities in Healthcare", we have the great honor of hearing from Dr. Kooka Joseph, a palliative/hospice care healer, mother of two, and all-star doctor. She discusses her experiences in moving to the US from Haiti to continue her medical education, and what she has seen from both a patient and physician viewpoint. She enlightens us on what it means to provide end-of-life care for patients and families, and how much culture and racial/ethnic differences play into how we want to be treated in the most vulnerable of times. She provides actionable steps to how we may forge a better way forward in our treatment of Black patients and their families, as well as Black healthcare providers.

Enneagram for the Healer and the Healing Jun 01, 2020

Show notes

Today we dig deep into what makes your hosts work. What lights up their brains? What are some of their greatest challenges? Some of you may be sick of the Enneagram, and some may have never heard of it...we try to cater to both. For those of you that have been hiding under a rock, here are the Enneagram types:
1) The Reformer- High moral standard; perfectionistic tendencies
2) The Helper-Thrives off of helping others; often acts young in the best way
3) The Achiever- Loves hitting goals; aims high, often gets what they set out for
4) The Individualist-Values being different; longs for understanding of self and others
5) The Investigator-Holds knowledge in the highest regard; values learning
6) The Loyalist- Committed and reliable; trustworthy
7) The Enthusiast- The life of the party; loves making everyone feel good
8) The Challenger-Holds space for the broken; values redemption and equality
9) The Peacemaker-Your best friend; conforms but may lose sense of self
We urge everyone to seek out better ways of communication so that we may understand each other better as health care providers, patients, and humans.
