#48 Womb as Soul of Woman w/ Amy Burday
Episode 7
Wednesday, 31 December, 2025
Today’s episode is with Amy Burday, a friend and a fellow Ma School-ian. We began studying as womb continuum care practitioners in July, and were together in Greece in November for a two week intensive training. We reflect on our time in Greece, and on our experience this work of Womb Continuum Care so far. We talk about what it's been like to have such an intensive experience and then integrate that into our lives. We talk about perfectionism, our relationship with the internet, Instagram, social media as either substitutes of bolsters of community and connection.As a bonus for Substack subscribers, we share stories of changes we've experienced in our own bodies as a result of this work. (Some wild things that happened in my body, and I'm so grateful to have received that work for two weeks straight.)We Discuss* How we both found this work, and fell/felt into a deep yes to the training. What it means to follow the womb’s call* Tending to the web of women’s health through womb continuum care - how up-leveling our skills and offerings not only benefits us personally, but also all the women we get an opportunity to serve.* Undoing the martyr mother - the disorientation, but ultimately the freedom, of making choices for myself as a woman, not only and always as a mother. And how making choices to be a more well nourished mother can benefit your children and the family web as a whole.* The social media dilemma - all the feels about using our phones as either (or both) touch points of connection and bolsters of community, and excuses to avoid being seen by real humans, and engaging in our actual lives. (Amy has some great wisdom here)* Choosing higher standards for ourself, our health, our joy, and our womanhood - not in defiance of cultural norms, but to uplift and uplevel what women expect and believe is possible to create.* The balance between the leap of being a beginner and doing the thing anyway, and putting yourself out there as a fully fledged… whatever, without the actual experience to back you up. How this work both demands higher standards, while also inspiring change on a deep level.Subscriber Content* A bonus chat with Amy where we discuss changes we’ve experienced as a result of receiving womb continuum care. Our bodies have shifted, softened, and healed so much in those two weeks, and the interconnection of our entire body is pretty remarkable.🧡 You can upgrade your subscription right here.Mentioned in this Episode* Motherfoods - free class with Rachelle Seliga and Carly Rae BeaudryConnect with us:* Find Amy on Instagram, or her website* Connect with me* Instagram - @maible.arden* Website - MaibleArden.comIf this resonated…* Leave a comment on Substack* Leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify* Share this episode with someone who needs to hear it* Tag me on Instagram with your takeaways @maible.arden This is a public episode.
