Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine

The desert Queen and I have teamed up again to bring you a colossal, much needed episode on a topic that could use some more time in the spotlight. Hayley Ebersole joins me once again because she's awesome and we knew we had to get into the subject of the Sister Wound together. As two Women focused on our personal spiritual growth and offering guidance and support to others on their journey, we both know what it's like to have the highest intentions yet to still struggle to not feel pangs of jealousy & have a critical eye towards other Women at times. We've talked together about why this is and thought that doing an episode on it together could be a great way to get conversation going.

On this guest episode Hayley and I head into round 2 of our conversations together and take a stab (pun intended) at addressing the Sister Wound. If you're unclear about it, the Sister Wound represents the generational wounding experienced amongst Women that has kept us competing against one another and keeping us from uniting and working together collaboratively. For so long we've been told that only a small percentage Women will have a worthwhile life and it depends wholly on how they're perceived by Men. Meaning that if we weren't exceptional enough to catch the Male eye, we weren't anything. Haley and I discuss this centuries old contradiction and how to begin to shift it.

Hayley Ebersole leads courses, group retreats and private medicine ceremonies supporting women to return to harmony with the cycles of their body, their heart and the Earth. Her upcoming course "Body Temple Alchemy" is a deep dive into women's ancestral practices for shedding self judgement to reclaim feminine spirituality and sensuality in the container of sacred sisterhood.

What is Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine?

My name is Whitney Walker, welcome to Women Waken! I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist specialising in substance abuse, addiction, eating disorders, trauma, and Spirituality. Over 10 years ago I walked into a therapist office for the first time because I realised that I felt incapable of handling life. I abused drugs and alcohol, had rock bottom self esteem, often felt suicidal, was very self destructive, and had no idea how to resolve what felt like a complete mess inside my mind and emotions.

After years of therapy, getting sober, and choosing to begin the journey of unconditional self love for myself, things started to change. My self esteem rose along with my self regard and kindness towards myself. I knew there was only one thing I wanted to do with the rest of my life; help others out of the place that I was in and start figuring out how we can end these cycles for good, for all of us.

Women Waken is building community and offering a platform for Women to come together who share a vision of creating a new way of life where insecurity, low self esteem, and self- destruction are no longer the norm. Where we are able to rebalance the dynamic between the inner and outer Worlds so that our ability to love and accept ourselves is no longer dependent on externals.

On this show, we speak to Women who are seeking to heal from traumas/habits/addictions that are keeping them in a place of disempowerment who are ready to begin aligning with their true self and are ready to let their light shine

I release two episodes a week, an interview and solo episode,

If you feel ready to reclaim your power and stand in your Divine light I hope this show finds you!
