Sónia is a powerful energetic witch and healer. She shares here a series of tools she has discovered that have enabled her to support her body through healing and very low energy states.
In this special episode, Sónia generously walks through the importance of slowing down to allow your experience to land, and shares specific practices for you to unlock the richness of your experience.

Included are
- an exploration and guided exercise of somatics
- becoming a spaceholder for your experience, to end fighting with yourself
- a possibility for cradling your own experience from the inside.

Meet the Radically Alive Women (RAW) Edgecast Team that brought you our RAW conversations for the past year: Mia Harrison, Estefania Santamaria Cerrutti, Sebastian Norton and Julia Neumann (and not in this episode: interviewers Annika Korsten and Hannah Abouzahrah).
In this conversation, the team shares about what it means to be woman, what it means to be man, about initiation, the importance of women’s empowerment, pleasure, keeping centre, collaboration, and future visions.
It is an episode like no other - the first time that RAW is making the team visible on the Edgecast platform.

In this Radically Alive Women Edgecast conversation, Julia Neumann speaks with Bernice Raabis, founder of Dance the Medicine, an international team of conscious dance professionals helping people build dance communities across the globe.Bernice shares what it’s like to live nomadically with her 14-year-old daughter as they travel the world, blending practical planning with deep bodily listening and a willingness to follow what feels radically alive. She also explains her somatic approach to tracking sensations and emotions as a practice of self-awareness, and how Dance the Medicine brings together leadership skills, DJ training, and dance facilitation to support collaboration, creativity, and community.Along the way, Bernice reflects on dance and music as ancient tools for bonding, and on the role of fear, mistakes, and tenacity in transformation.* Love these conversations?

In this Radically Alive Women conversation, Julia Neumann speaks with Annamária Sütő (“Wolf Woman”,) a Hungarian from Transylvania living independently in a small village, and her adult daughter Anna Réka Ötvös, who is frequently traveling between Siberia and Hungary, and learning to feel “home” within herself. They discuss shifting the mother-daughter relationship from blame and constant arguing to listening, gratitude, and choosing to focus energy on one’s own life.Annamária describes a turning point around age 35 when she stopped trying to change her mother from a rebel stance, made a gratitude list for what she received from her maternal line, and chose to change her focus on her own life and how she wanted to live. She also reflects “forward” to her relationship with Anna Réka, acknowledging that she gave her all she could and that it is up to her daughter what she does with her life.Anna Réka shares her own realisations about boundaries, from having been an adaptive daughter, and seeing her mother as human, not an all-knowing goddess (“I don’t need google, I have my mom”). They link honoring mothers to respecting Mother Earth, embracing light/dark duality, and reconnecting to instincts, including practical reflection on using anger as life power, symbolised by “wolf woman” teachings. They conclude by emphasising the importance of a woman’s intuition, and the role of fear and anger in that reconnection. This episode is an ode to choice, presence and creation looking forward - not trying to fix the past, yet honouring the necessity of healing and acknowledging ancestors.Annamária and Anna Réka offer Mother-Daughter retreats to heal the mother-daughter relationship. Contact either of them for more information.The song in the background at the beginning is Annamária’s song “The Strength of a Woman”, in Hungarian. These are the lyrics in English:⁠The strength of a woman⁠The strength of one woman moves the mountains away The strength of  two women ignites the fires The strength of  there women opens the lands The strength of four women causes the springs forth The strength of  five women calls the winds The strength of  six women opens the worlds The strength of  seven women opens the gatesThe strength of  eight women opens the souls The strength of  nine women opens the heartsThe strength of one woman gives birth to life.* Love these conversations?
