Rebuilding the Village: Wisdom, Maturity & the Return to Intergenerational Living

In this deeply reflective conversation, Keshia is joined by Michelle Chatham and Molly to explore what the “village” truly means in modern life, and why so many women feel unsupported despite being surrounded by community. Together, they unpack the degradation of intergenerational wisdom, the limitations of peer-only communities, and the dangers of outsourcing our knowing to professionals, systems, and now AI. This episode invites listeners to return to embodiment, lived experience, and relational wisdom — and to understand growth, challenge, and maturation as essential parts of becoming a grounded woman, mother, and leader. This is a conversation about becoming, not performing and about creating the village from the inside out.   Music Licence:MB01MVKGTUZTF8Z   Michale Bio   From our first breath to our last, we are creating, utilizing, and maintaining space. This principle has guided michale during her 30 years of experience in integrative health. As a nurse who practices from a holistic and global perspective, she helped create one of the country’s first integrative tongue tie clinics over 10 years ago. Her passion for education led her to lecture and teach nationally and internationally on craniofacial growth and development and anticipatory growth guidance. As an educator, she has created training programs for health care practitioners as well as parents and teaches the energetics of healing. Michale mentors those who desire to do their own work, and are interested in healing the healer. She believes the future of healing is up to those practitioners who are re-creating wisdom systems that are essential to our survival and thriving as humans.   www.michalechatham.com www.thevessel.life www.korimeloy.com/rootedfamilies youtube — https://youtube.com/@michalechatham990?si=2SL-QJAXnA7qwg6n   @michalechatham @theclinicalmystic @truenorthcouples     Molly Bio    Dr. Molly Peralta is a mediator in unleashing the healing power of the body, philanthropic and community building enthusiast and encourager of living a radically heart centered life. a chiropractor by trade, birth keeper and mother amongst many other titles. living in her dream in hawaii raising wild babies with her husband.

When Modern Health Gets It Wrong: Vaccines, Vitalism & the Body’s Intelligence with Cyndi O'Meara

In this episode, Keshia sits down with Cyndi O’Meara — leading nutritionist, filmmaker, best-selling author, TEDx speaker, and founder of Changing Habits, The Nutrition Academy, The Changing Habits Farm, and co-founder of The Packing Company. With more than 45 years of experience in nutrition and health education, Cyndi has dedicated her life to helping people make informed, empowered choices about their wellbeing. A passionate educator at heart, Cyndi is known for her direct, down-to-earth approach and her commitment to confronting misinformation in the health and food industries. Her work challenges people to question long-held habits, rethink conventional narratives, and make deeply intentional decisions about what they put into their bodies. As she enters 2025, Cyndi’s renewed focus on global education continues through internationally accredited nutrition courses and public events like The Health and Nutrition Summit. In this long-form conversation, Keshia and Cyndi explore some of the most important and often misunderstood topics in modern health: The philosophy of vitalism and the body’s innate intelligence Vaccine safety, immune system development, and chronic illness in children Cyndi’s personal journey raising unvaccinated children How modern health has become increasingly mechanistic, and why that matters What it means for parents to make informed, compassionate decisions in today’s climate This episode is not about telling anyone what to think or do. It is an invitation to ask better questions, understand the historical and scientific context, and look more critically at the information we’re given. Above all, it’s a conversation about trusting the body, reclaiming sovereignty, and empowering parents with tools, knowledge, and confidence as they navigate complex health decisions.   Music Licence: MB01SA6UABCOTZY   Important Disclaimer This conversation is not medical advice.   Resources & Mentions Australian Vaccination Network (AVN) 📄 Reports & Research Papers McCullough Foundation Report on Autism ⁠https://zenodo.org/records/17451259⁠ Impact of Childhood Vaccination on Short- and Long-Term Chronic Health Outcomes (Senate Hearing Record) ⁠https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/wp-content/uploads/Entered-into-hearing-record-Impact-of-Childhood-Vaccination-on-Short-and-Long-Term-Chronic-Health-Outcomes-in-Children-A-Birth-Cohort-Study.pdf⁠ Henry Ford Study on Vaccinated vs Unvaccinated Health Outcomes⁠https://www.henryford.com/news/2025/09/vaccine-study-henry-ford-health⁠   🎥 Documentaries VAXXED — by Del Bigtree & Dr Andrew Wakefield An Inconvenient Study (Free to Watch) ⁠https://www.aninconvenientstudy.com/⁠   📺 TV & Weekly Health Shows The HighWire with Del Bigtree — Over 400+ Episodes & Interviews   📚 Books & Publications Vaccines: Amen — Aaron Siri The Vaccine Friendly Plan — Dr Paul Thomas, Paediatrician Dissolving Illusions — Dr Suzanne Humphries VAX – UNVAX: What Does The Science Say? — Brian Hooker & Robert F.

From “Premature Ovarian Failure” to Four Babies: Birth Stories with Angela Jessup

In this episode of Return to Wisdom, Keshia sits down with her friend Angela to talk through her journey into motherhood — from being told she was unlikely to conceive, through four very different births, miscarriage, and the process of finding trust in her own body and choices. If you’re pregnant, exploring birth options, processing a past birth, or simply interested in real, unfiltered women’s stories, this conversation offers a lot to reflect on. Note: Angela’s baby Mimi is in the studio with us, so you may hear a few soft baby sounds throughout the episode.   Key Themes in This Episode How the medical system shapes birth through fear and policyThe tension between hospital protocols and physiological birth, and how that shows up for mothers. Autonomy and informed decision-makingFrom induction conversations to postpartum checks, Angela speaks about learning to say no, ask questions and understand her options. Energetic boundaries in pregnancy and birthWhy the attitudes and nervous systems of people in the room matter — and how this can affect the birth space. Different kinds of birth supportRegistered midwives, doulas, lay midwives and birthkeepers — and why having the right to choose who is present is so important. Grieving and healing miscarriageThe difference between a hospital-managed D&C and a more spacious, supported miscarriage at home. Free birth as a considered choiceFor Angela and Nick, free birth was not about rejecting care, but about being prepared, educated, and responsible for their own decisions.   About Angela Angela is a kinesiologist who works primarily with women — especially in pregnancy, birth preparation and birth trauma integration.  Coming soon: Energetic Boundaries for Pregnancy & Birth — an online workshop A Self-Clearing Course for women and children 1:1 kinesiology sessions resuming from February 2026 You can find Ange at https://www.angelajessup.com and IG @angelajessup_kinesiology Music Licence:MB01AADDYHXW0FR   This episode is sponsored by Great Spirit   Great Spirit creates powerful organic health products rooted in nature, with a greater vision to help curb the mental health epidemic through nature-based programs and retreats.
