What if your journey through motherhood — or the creation of anything meaningful — could be guided by the deep, ancient intelligence of your body and the earth itself?
In this week’s episode of Rewire for Birth, I sit down with Ashley Glowiak, LMFT, PhD(c) — a mother of five, a marriage and family therapist, and a psychedelic-informed researcher devoted to restoring the sacred ecology of family life.
Through her frameworks Family Mycology and Home Field Advantage, Ashley helps women transmute inherited patterns into love, rhythm, and coherence across generations. Her work weaves psychology, ancestral repair, earth wisdom, and nervous system science into a language that feels like truth remembered.
This conversation is a transmission. A remembering.
Ashley shares about:
How stress patterns lodge in the body — and how movement, fascial release, and earth connection help mothers metabolize emotional residue.
Why authenticity — not forced positivity — is the strongest measurable frequency we can transmit to our babies.
How speaking honestly to your baby (even in the womb) creates attunement, discernment, and emotional safety.
Her Family Mycology model — inspired by fungi, regeneration, and the invisible systems that shape family patterns.
How microdosing psilocybin (used safely and intentionally) can support nervous system regulation, bonding, creativity, and intergenerational healing.
How nature becomes a profound co-regulator for mothers who feel overwhelmed or under-supported in the absence of the village we are biologically wired to expect.
Key takeaways you’ll hear inside the episode:
Your capacity expands through communication — with your baby, with yourself, with your lineage.
Stress must move: through breath, through fascia, through voice, through truth.
Nothing is ever lost. Repair is always available.
Nature mirrors our bodies — fascia like mycelium, breath like wind, cycles like seasons. We belong to this rhythm.
Psilocybin (when used intentionally and safely) can open new pathways of empathy, oxytocin, bonding, and generational repair.
Every emotion is compostable — irritation, overwhelm, shutdown. These aren’t flaws but invitations to transform what’s been carried for generations.
And this beautiful reminder from Ashley:
“You are the exact right fit. Whoever is in your womb, in your arms, or in your field — they are here with you for a reason.”
This episode is an invitation to tune into your body’s intelligence, to find resourcing in the natural world, and to reconnect to the lineage of wisdom running beneath your feet. Whether you’re birthing a baby, a vision, or a new version of yourself… this conversation meets you there.
