To close out this season, I talk about my recent experience going to an Abraham-Hicks workshop in Philly. There was so much insightful wisdom shared, but I highlight some of my main takeaways, thoughts, and ways I think it can be incorporated into daily life. Enjoy
Happy September! I'm honored to share this interview with Mitch Ott — a medium, channeler and healer who beautifully speaks about how the spirits of those who have passed, spirit guides, angels, ascended masters, extraterrestrials, and our highest selves are all connected. We also talk about the changes happening in the world and how the collective is preparing for an ascension. This is a deep, powerful and hopeful discussion. Enjoy
This year, I watched The Business of Being Born and it completely changed my perspective around giving birth. I'm honored to share this discussion with Samm Magpi, a midwife who speaks about her experience in the practice, describes the difference between home births vs. hospital births, and shares what it's like to have an element of trust with her clients as she experiences with them the beauty, and sometimes tragedy, of the birthing process.

This week we get juicy, we get spicy, and we get vulnerable. Sara is a Breathwork Guide, Aura Photographer, and Sensual Wellness Coach. Her previous episode of Secrets in Nature in 2022 cracked open a door, but the gates really flew wide open this time with the discussion of breathwork, sexuality, how trauma stores in the body, how sexuality and breathwork are intertwined (and how everything in our lives are intertwined for that matter!) and most importantly, how to alchemize the shame that many people carry around the topic of sexuality. This is my favorite interview yet. Enjoy
I have been waiting to do this interview for so long! Mystic Ginger is a hair salon, wellness space, and apothecary shop that has truly brought so much magic into my life. Its founders, Kellie and Kristen, joined me for a discussion all about taking leaps of faith, connecting with your intuition, and trusting your guides as well as your gut in order to show up each day as your most authentic self. We also talk about the intuitive services they offer and the sustainability practices in their salon. Enjoy!
This week's episode is all about the healing aspects of psychedelic mushrooms: how they can help with self love, trauma, depression, anxiety, addiction and so much more. Ellie Stiles (@elevatewithelliestiles on Instagram and TikTok) speaks about the importance of source, intention, and integration, as well as how we can use this medicine to bring more love into our lives. Enjoy!
This week I talk about my experience going off of birth control after not having my period for ten years, I share some applicable things I have done in my daily life to help my body adapt and tap into the energy changes that anyone with a menstrual cycle could use, and I discuss reframing the mindset around feminine values in society so that we regard them with the same significance as masculine ones. Enjoy
It's Cancer season, and it's my first solo episode. We're chatting about the first steps to take in becoming the person you've always wanted to be, and it all starts with the daily habits. I share some of the ways I've been striving to show up for myself: getting my daily morning sun, learning how to read an ingredient label, prioritizing living by my cycle, and so much more. Enjoy✨ Follow the podcast on Instagram: @secretsinnaturepodcast
This week's episode is all about what it means to be a witch: cultivating a craft, tapping into the dream space, balancing your masculine and feminine energies, and making your life just a little bit more magical in the modern day. Don't forget to come with an open mind✨ Find Deana on Instagram: @deanablondell Find Deana on YouTube: @MagickUnleashed
It's a new era of Secrets in Nature. But we couldn't exactly open the next door without closing the current one. Today Rachael and I talk about our friendship and what we've learned about relationships these past 20 years of being friends. Podcasting together has been the most magical time. But there are plenty more secrets to discuss. Don't go anywhere
We hope that you're having the most magical of Fridays…and that you're ready for a deep dive into our highlights, opinions, and takeaways from Mia Magik's online witch school. Life can be as magical as you make it…all it takes is intention, interpretation, imagination, and implementation. Enjoy! ✨
This Friday, we're sitting down to chat about some good old fashioned conspiracy theories from Reddit, including the secret behind crazy cat people, the mysteries of Rome, the truth behind Atlantis, and the question of whether or not we're just a tiny universe on a snowflake. Enjoy!
This week, Lexi shares her experience doing the Wim Hof method and holotropic breathwork for the first time, and then we chat about products that companies are selling for big money: a water filtration machine and EMF blocking devices. Do we need to be saved from our water and our cell phones, or is marketing just a really powerful thing?

We're back with an interview that we're incredibly excited to share. Kasey Goins is a physician's assistant turned functional nutritionist who strives to help women feel empowered in knowing what their body needs in order to function how it was meant to. We talk about the issues with modern day nutrition, the power of misleading marketing, the effects of birth control, and so much more. Share this episode with a woman you know!
In today's episode, we reflect on current events and share what has been on our minds the past couple of weeks. We want this episode to serve as a reminder that as women, we deserve to feel empowered, feel supported by other women, and be knowledgeable about our bodies in addition to have control over them.

If you've ever been intrigued by Wim Hof or the benefits of cold exposure, this is the episode for you. Ignite Sadhana's goal is to push people to their limit and activate fight or flight, with the intention of opening a doorway to the bliss, the intuition, and the health benefits that lie on the other side.

We're back…and we're kicking off Season 4 with an interview that not only left us feeling inspired, but also challenged us to take a few steps out of our comfort zone. Sara is an expert in aura photography, breathwork, female sexuality, and letting her intution guide her. She is living proof that when we truly desire something, the universe will conspire in our favor. This is a good one. Enjoy✨
Happy Friday! This week we celebrate one year of Secrets in Nature with the juiciest of interviews. The Alchemical Sisters, South Jersey business owners, join us to chat about breathwork, auras, the witch wound, and what it truly means to be your own alchemist. It brought us so much joy to discuss the magic that may be present in your hometown, your community, and in your very own life…it's just a matter of alchemizing it. Enjoy
We had a lot of fun this week talking about the recent Vedic astrology birth chart readings we received from Jill Blumenstock (if you haven't listened to our previous podcast interview with her….start there!). We chat rising signs, what the planets have in store for us this year, and blame the planets for our personalities (because who doesn't). Enjoy!
Lately, we've been talking a lot about how nature affects humans. This week we're switching gears to talk about a major way humans affect nature: the oil industry. Two destructive oil spills occurred in the last two weeks, and we think they're important to discuss. We also touch on the damaging effects of cruise ships, and some small positive stories to lighten us up at the end.
