You're Not a Burden Have you ever felt like you're “too much” to be loved? Like your emotions are exhausting, your presence is heavy, or your needs might push people away? In today's episode, Cami speaks directly to the one quietly carrying the lie that they are a burden. Whether that message was spoken over you in childhood, implied through silence, or internalized through exhaustion, this conversation will remind you of the truth: God never called you a burden. He calls you beloved. And He carries what you carry—daily. Together, we'll explore: Where the lie of being “too much” often starts How it shapes the way we show up (or don't) in relationships What Scripture actually says about our weight, our worth, and God's willingness to hold both Why Jesus never asks us to clean up or quiet down before coming to Him This one's for the over-apologizer, the emotional caretaker, the one who says “I'm fine” through tears. You are not a problem to fix or a burden to bear. You are someone God loves to carry.

Click here to send me a quick message :) Got cramps? The truth is there is not just one answer to how to relieve menstrual cramps, and my guess is that if you've got cramps you've realized this yourself.It took me years to understand that there are many different KINDS of menstrual cramps, and they all come from different imbalances in the body and the pelvis.Today I explore a question I received from a listener about how to stretch or support your ligaments that hold the uterus in place.But before I dive into that, I share what I consider to be foundational ways to observe your menstrual cramps to become a detective of your own body and consider what qualities of your cramps and other symptoms might be telling you.Then I share about my first step with almost everyone, and a little glimpse into how herbs might be allies - and why many herbs won't work, too.And finally, I give a little insight into some of the hands on (and possibly hands in) ways you can both assess and tend to your tissues in the palace of your pelvis.Resources:Grab the free guide: Track your cycle with FAM (and symptom tracking)Today's shownotes: Holistic & embodied approach to menstrual crampsEpisode 19: The importance of softening the pelvis w Chaya Leia AronsonEpisode 32: Herbal spotlight on motherwortEpisode 176: Integrative approach to fibroidsIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdomAnd if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

A lot of people follow the script—go to school, get the job, work hard—and still feel like they're barely making it. You put in the hours, do what you're told is “right,” but the numbers never seem to add up. It's like chasing a finish line that keeps moving, while watching others take completely different routes and somehow end up ahead. At some point, it's natural to wonder if the whole system was designed to keep you just comfortable enough not to question it. That quiet frustration builds, until you start looking for something that actually makes sense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwXRbX4rPNY Dr. Johnoson Crutchfield went from school principal to full-time real estate investor after realizing his career wouldn't fund the life he wanted.

How do we confront systemic injustice without falling into despair or self-righteousness? That's what we're exploring in this episode as we dive into Chapter 2 of Richard Rohr's new book, The Tears of Things, titled "Amos: Messenger to the Collective." Mike and Paul begin by talking with Richard about Amos's unique approach: critiquing the collective culture rather than scapegoating individuals, and turning anger over injustice into fuel for change. Following the conversation with Richard, co-hosts Mike and Carmen are joined by Rabbi Or Rose, founding director of the Miller Center of Hebrew College and author. Together in conversation, they explore Abraham Joshua Heschel's understanding of the prophet, the challenge of holding righteous indignation without self-righteousness, the power of teshuvah (return), and practical ways to remain spiritually grounded and committed to justice and peace work in overwhelming times. Rabbi Or Rose is the founding Director of The Miller Center of Hebrew College, and serves as a senior consultant to Interfaith America. Among his recent publications is the award-winning, co-edited volume With the Best of Intentions: Interreligious Missteps & Mistakes (Orbis Books). His forthcoming book, My Legs Were Praying: A Biography of Abraham Joshua Heschel for teen readers will be published in May 2025 (Monkfish Book Publishing).  Resources: Grab a copy of The Tears of Things here, where you can get a free reader's guide, discover a new course, and other offerings related to the book.
