First Light (formerly Rooted Rhytms) is a podcast of spoken letters and reflections by Dr. Marlene Hampton, a naturopathic doctor, farmer, and mother.
Drawing from seasonal rhythms, ancestral traditions, land stewardship, and the philosophy of healing, these episodes offer a quieter way of listening—one rooted in discernment, embodiment, and reverence for the natural world.
This is a space for women seeking orientation rather than optimization, depth rather than excess, and a return to what is steady, enduring, and true.
