Its full of insight and the power and healing that comes from sharing your story. Trigger Warning! We are talking about our bodies and our journey. This could be triggering for some. WE BELIEVE ALL BODIES ARE GOOD BODIES.Recommended reading is "The Body is not an apology- The power of radical self-love" by Sonya Renee Taylor. "Those of us who believe we do not have the "right body" spend decades of our life and dollars trying to shrink into the right body all while forfeiting precious space on the planet because we don't feel entitled to it. We too, are out of balance.Taking up space we have previously been denied is a step towards bringing a just power of balance of power and resources (i.e. space) in the world. It is an act of radical love"We encourage each of you to take up space.Please subscribe, like and share!

This episode is an important one & will be a series - we can't cover everything in one shot. There's just too much..In this episode we mentioned @gabsjack new book Pain & Prejudice: how the medical system ignores women - and what we can do about it - and the segment aired on @thesocialctv back in March..We talked about our personal experiences, the origin of the word hysterical (taken from an article in @guardian ) “coming from the Latin Word hystericus “of the womb” This was a condition thought to be exclusive to women - sending them uncontrollably & neurotically insane owing to a dysfunction of the uterus (the removal of which is still called a hysterectomy)”.We talked about inconsistent & inaccurate information found on healthcare sites in Alberta. Advocacy & why it's so important..We mentioned @abwomenshealthfoundation and research they are doing to close the gaps in women's healthcare & my reaching out to them to bring awareness to Endometriosis.We talked about the great care Kathie received at the @loisholehosp.And we wanted to mention our awesome shirts by @rebel.broad.crew & my earrings by @helloashto

Episode 8Leap before you look, bra fittings and uneven nipples! This episode has it all

This week we talk about the "Eye of the Tiger", the hustle, the grind, striving for goals & working for "success". We candidly talked about our own experiences with burnout and working past capacity & how that has shaped our perspective on goals and pursuing our purpose today.

Kathie & Rayna discuss “when did we learn to hide how we're truly feeling?” In this, our first, lil episode!! We'd love to hear you weigh in - what are your thoughts?. We can't wait until next time!.We mentioned (at the end) my beautiful kimono was won in a local giveaway from @realspiritwomensboutique here in Sherwood Park. Some of the books/people/quotes we referenced:“In most of our human relationships, we spend much of our time reassuring each other that our costumes of identity are on straight. “ - Ram Dass..Kathie read a passage from @glennondoyle book Untamed.We spoke of @brenebrown research on vulnerability, connection & belonging.“Because true belonging only happens when we present our authentic, imperfect selves to the world, our sense of belonging can never be greater than our level of self acceptance”.
