Welcome to episode 14, season 4 of the Woman Uncaged podcast!

In this episode of the Woman Uncaged Podcast, we dive into one of our favorite end-of-year rituals: choosing a Word of the Year. As we record in December, we’re both deep in reflection mode, looking back at the words that have guided us in past seasons and feeling into what might want to shape the year ahead. We share how this practice first came into our lives, how it has evolved, and why we now approach certain words with a bit more side-eye than we used to.

We talk about the difference between choosing an intention versus a goal, how a single word can act as a lens through which life reveals unexpected wisdom, and how sometimes that wisdom arrives with a biting sense of humor.

We explore the emotional, spiritual, and deeply human terrain of naming what we want more of and what we’re ready to release. We also reflect on how this practice helps us notice our own pendulum swings between extremes, how it reveals the quiet places we still seek external validation, and how it invites us to care for ourselves, our bodies, and our lives in more intentional ways.

And of course, we’d love to hear from you: Do you choose a Word of the Year? What has it opened up for you? Join us for this thoughtful, funny, honest conversation as we welcome the turning of the year together.

Welcome to episode 13, season 4 of the Woman Uncaged podcast!

When we deny our own power, we project it outward...onto our spouses, other people, and even institutions. In this episode, we share how we see this phenomenon in ourselves, our clients, and the world at large, providing real world examples to illuminate a dynamic that often goes unseen and unspoken. We begin to untangle how power, agency, and responsibility relate to one another, and how anger can make us feel powerful, but doesn't necessarily mean we are in our power. We also explore how our relationship with power relates to our relationship with money, and how the old models just don't work for many women.

Welcome to Episode 12 of Season 4!

In this episode, we unpack a truth we’ve both lived over and over again: real, lasting change is rarely quick, and the pressure to deliver (or receive) instant transformation can actually get in the way of the deeper work.

We talk about the myth of the “insight machine,” the belief that coaches must produce rapid breakthroughs to prove their value, and how clients often feel pressured to change fast because of the investment they’ve made. Through stories from our own practices and lives, we explore why slow, embodied, integrated change is not only more sustainable, it’s more honest.

We also get real about the messy middle: the moments when things feel worse before they feel better, when grief rises, when old identities fall away, and when the growth you asked for doesn’t look anything like you expected. And we name the very human tendency to set rigid outer rules when what really needs tending is our inner landscape and self-trust.

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “doing enough,” or worried that your progress is too slow, this conversation will help you exhale. Your unfolding doesn’t need to be fast to be real.
