The Shaina Kennedy PodcastEp 33 - Do nice guys finish last?Hello beautiful humans!
Today's episode is inspired by the recent seasons of MAFS Australia.
I was watching a scene between Lauren and Jono, where Jono claims that women want a nice guy, but then say it's "boring" once they receive it.
I have been wanting to bring this conversation to the table for a long long time, so this podcast explores what "too nice" ACTUALLY means (hint: it doesn't mean "too nice"), and the concept that where someone is at in their own journey, will often determine what they're attracted to (sometimes, that...2024-05-2215 min

Whether it’s a good dream or a bad one, our dreams want to tell us something we might not have listened to while we were awake. However, scary dreams tell us another thing. Maybe we haven’t tended to them in some way for lack of resources to understand, while also trying to escape the difficulty in our lives in various ways, whether that looks like imbibing social media, other addictions, and various forms of escapism.

There have been multiple theories on how the patriarchy emerged in society and ultimately, we’ll never completely know as it predates written records. However, a Lithuanian archaeologist by the name of Marija Gimbutas theorized that in the Paleolithic period when the Judeo-Christian patriarchy emerged, a group of Kurgans who are warring men ca...2023-05-181h 04The Time of the Feminine - A Global Sisterhood PodcastRiane Eisler: From Domination to PartnershipAs a holocaust survivor, Riane has witnessed both enormous violence, but also spiritual courage.

Through her experience, humans were told that we are bad and that we must be rigidly controlled from the top; to instill a fear of God.

Witches, having known the way of herbs and healing, psychic emotional healing was considered the work of the devil. Because of this, they were burned and punished.

One of the assumptions that Quanita makes in her book is that we are spiritual beings having human experiences and not the other way around. This means that everything that happens is in service to the spiritual beings, to us growing as spirits. That means that nothing is accidental and that the universe is exact and sends us exactly what our souls need to move to the next layer.

Boundaries. Boundaries. Boundaries!We grow up in a world, and in a culture, that doesn’t teach us about the human faculties we are born with. These faculties include our breath, energy system, presence, and perceptual awareness. It seems crazy that we are given these bodies that do so many things, and what we learn in school, has almost nothing to do with our internal realms. Perhaps it is intentional - or it’s just a lack of awareness?

For Mare, it’s helpful to be aware of our conditioning as women in this society. It’s important not to blame ourselves when we realize that we’re giving our power away, when we can’t say our truth, when we shrink, or when we turn against ourselves when we receive harsh judgement.

They were the ones who stayed behind, caring for the sick using natural remedies. This is in stark contrast to male healers, who used harsher methods to tend to the wounded on the battlefield. It is through herbalism that Maia Toll began to explore the witch archetype. As she studied herbs and magic, Maia found herself looking to escape her earthly vessel.

Michelle Gomez knows what that’s like—having worked through 11 years of pain herself. As tempting as it is to put the full blame on moms, they’re also victims of colonialist systems of oppression. When Spanish colonialists conquered Latin America, they brought along teachings of Roman Catholicism. The indegenous people were taught to revere the image of a White, male God. The Bible instructed women how to behave. Colonialists started emphasizing the masculine and devaluing the feminine, even though the natives originally believed in the balance of the two ener...2022-09-2253 minThe Time of the Feminine - A Global Sisterhood PodcastMikaela De La Myco: Being a Mother for Mushroom MedicineDuring and before the witch trials in Europe, most of the medicine had come from land and the people who were tending land knew how to use and turn these plants into medicines. Reproductive actions such as knowing which plants were reproductive or abortifacients were outlawed and considered evil. People with knowledge in practicing plants were removed, stigmatized, and criminalized. Nowadays, the stigma remains and we still call alternative medicine “folk medicine”. In this podcast, it is Mikaela’s goal to legitimize and spread awareness on the significance and benefits of plant and mushroom medicine among mainstream, pharmaceutical medicine. ...2022-09-151h 06The Time of the Feminine - A Global Sisterhood PodcastJaguar Womban: Healing and Honoring the WombThere’s a sense of knowledge in the yoga traditions that comes from the body, where even when we move in the different physical postures, we awaken an understanding of enlightenment, energetics, or our own fire force within. Jaguar believes that “words don’t teach” and her way of learning is the body way, because she has felt more integrated with her pre-death self.

If they disobeyed, they would be killed, and their land would be taken. That was when land started to become possessed and the strand with Mother Earth herself cut. This forced colonized states to form over centuries and eventually led to land being objectified and commodified.

Within six months, her father died along with two other family members afterwards. It took her years to process these layers of unprocessed grief and she turned to substances, experiences, and relationships to cope. Fortunately, she had always gravitated towards the spiritual path and as she gotten older, this path gave her the space to unpack and process her experiences.

Marysia Miernowska explains that our extractive capitalist culture is to blame. The modern world equates self-worth to productivity, pushing people to work past their limits. It’s not just our bodies that are suffering, but the Earth as well. To combat burnout, we must value rest. We must re-learn the pace of growth and healing—processes which take time. We cannot recover faster than the pace of recovery. During rest, take the opportunity to reconnect with the self and with nature.

And yet, men continue to uphold this broken system. Jeremie Lotemo explains that this allegiance has been socialized from a young age. Fathers teach their sons how to dismiss their mothers. Sports initiates kids into a culture of dominance. There is no space for kindness and warmth. To be respected, men have to reject their emotions. Not only do they feel disconnected from their emotions, but men also feel cut off from the Great Mother. As a result, they don’t know how to take responsibility for their feelings.

Historically, women have been socialized to serve as mothers and wives. From this conditioning arose the belief that self-worth is directly related to how many people they nurture. It’s true that leadership is about lifting others up, but it shouldn’t be at the expense of personal well-being. The opportunities for growth, challenge, and leadership are endless. How does one discern when to say yes and when to say no?

From a young age, most girls were bought up to believe that sex is taboo. But sexuality is a natural and essential aspect of human nature, and we intuitively know this. The lack of safe spaces prevents women from exploring their sexuality so instead they carry shame about having erotic thoughts and desires. This ancient distortion still persists today to control the feminine. To overcome this repression, women need to discern between their sexual truths and social conditioning.

In the past, they were once warriors and providers who had to compartmentalize their emotions in order to succeed. But in modern times, men are no longer needed as defenders and breadwinners. Without a clear purpose, men feel lost and act out in harmful ways in order to fill the void.

The phases of our menstrual cycle are like seasons. Each new season brings an opportunity for release, transformation, and creativity.

This fear of being misunderstood and betrayed is deeply ingrained in our psyches—especially in women who have been historically excluded and condemned. It doesn’t help that Western culture, religion, and education teaches us to consistently find fault because of the core belief that we are inadequate.

Despite being a goddess-worshiping culture, Indian society still upholds outdated patriarchal views. Hindu mythology has great reverence for warrior goddesses, for they have the capacity to be both nurturing and destructive at the same time.

The Western world inadvertently created a system that deemed feminine qualities as undesirable and inferior. Women and goddess-worshiping cultures were stripped of their voices; unable to participate in important conversations because they did not fit masculine ideals.

Stories of the hero’s journey symbolize the masculine’s yearning to connect with his being in the feminine. True myths reveal that the divine is both masculine and feminine; we are all divine.

Our guest Karen Lee Downes puts this imbalance in the context of the workplace where masculine qualities are held supreme over the feminine.
