Priestess of Motherhood with Dania FosterAuthor: Dania Foster
In order to guide our children to rise unbridled & wild, trusting their instincts with courageous self worth we must reconnect with our inner Divinity within our Motherhood. The Priestess is the embodied, Earthly caretaker of the connection to the Divine Feminine. She is the leader of the home, guiding her family to holistic health of body & spirit. She has unleashed so much forgiveness & compassion in healing the generational lineage of strong women before her who were challenged by not enoughness. The Priestess is attuned with her physiological body & its response to natures cycles. Language: en Genres: Kids & Family, Parenting Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

What is PDA? How Do We Support Our Kids Naturally
Episode 30
Tuesday, 31 March, 2026
If your child falls apart the moment you make a simple request, this episode is for you.PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) is not a behaviour problem. It is a nervous system response. And when we treat it like a behaviour problem, we make it worse, even with the best intentions.I share what this looks like in real life with my own child, the meltdowns at acrobatics, the shutdowns at skate lessons, the moment my reminders to drink water created a threat response instead of compliance. I also walk through my clinical approach to supporting PDA children through nervous system regulation, adrenal health, gut-brain connection, flower essences, herbs, and minerals.In this episode:What PDA actually is and why the name mattersThe three nervous system responses and how they show up in demand avoidanceWhy your well-intentioned support might be fuelling the meltdownsThe "I wonder if…" reframe that changes everythingMy clinical tools: flower essences, minerals, herbs, gut-brain supportWhy I treat mothers and children together, not separatelyResources mentioned:Read the full blog post: daniafoster.com/blog/pdaMother and Child Package: daniafoster.com/mother-and-child-packageBook a free connection call: daniafoster.com/consultsAbout Dania Foster: Dania Foster is a clinical naturopath (BHSc) and energetics therapist specialising in supporting burnt-out mothers and their highly sensitive and neurodivergent children.
