  • Reclaiming My Inner Goddess

    Dianne Shepard is a goddess-send! This was a fantastic episode, reminding us that we all have—and have always had!—goddess energy inside us. The 5 sacred codes to reclaim the inner goddess really helped me look at myself and identify which of these 5 areas I need to step into, and Dianne also includes actual tools in this episode you can do right along with her. Highly recommend this podcast!!

  • Pleasure as Spiritual Practice

    The Sacred Feminine as a serious endeavor is a new concept for me and I really appreciate Dianne’s warm, low-key style. My favorite episodes are those including a “micro practice”.

    Another resource is Dianne’s website that has interesting videos on various topics. I also purchased her Jade Egg Bundle and have found it very helpful.

  • Beautiful message

    I listened to the episode on activating your feminine magic, which truly resonated with me as a woman approaching 60. I found Dianne’s words to be both a soothing balm and an invigorating tonic – yes, we are the medicine! We have everything within us just waiting to be tapped into and utilised for a more powerful, sensual, joyful life.
