I Am Shakti: Breaking Taboos in Modern Ayurveda with Mother Maya Tiwari | Cate Stillman
Episode 666
Friday, 23 January, 2026
About this episode: In this episode of the Thrive with Cate Podcast, Cate Stillman is joined by spiritual teacher, Ayurvedic lineage holder, and author Maya Tiwari for a deep and necessary conversation on Shakti, ancestral healing, and embodied feminine wisdom. Together, Cate and Maya explore what modern wellness culture often avoids: the role of darkness, descent, illness, and loss as initiatory forces in true healing. Maya shares how **Shakti—the primal feminine intelligence—**is not something to be optimized or bypassed, but something remembered through presence, surrender, and devotion to biological and spiritual truth. Drawing from her lived experience, classical Ayurveda, and decades of spiritual practice, Maya reframes healing as remembrance—of ancestral memory, cellular intelligence, and the cyclical nature of creation and dissolution. Cate weaves in reflections on leadership, motherhood, illness, and navigating spiritual truth within modern systems. Rather than offering surface-level self-improvement, this conversation invites a deeper reckoning with what it means to live in alignment with body intelligence, feminine sovereignty, and sacred rhythm in a world shaped by extraction and control. Key Takeaways: Shakti as a biological, ancestral, and cosmic intelligence Why darkness and descent are essential to regeneration Ancestral memory, vasanas, and embodied healing The loss of feminine rites and womb-based wisdom Surrender as a radical act of sovereignty Living spiritual truth inside modern culture This episode is especially meaningful for women and seekers navigating identity shifts, illness, grief, or a deeper call to embodied leadership and remembrance.
