It’s finally here!
After months of holding the vision and many delays along the way, The Awakening Woman: Ready to Thrive is here.
Someone asked me this week if I was nervous about it, and I said yes. Not in the same way I might be nervous about doing a live performance, but nervous in the sense that this is meaningful, deeply meaningful to me, and I wanted to do it justice.
So I just decided to record it, to hell with the fact that hayfever has given my voice a raspy touch - that’s what editing is for.
And so here is episode 1, no script, just me with a message to you, my beautiful listener.
Show Notes
This first episode opens the door to The Awakening Woman: Ready to Thrive — a limited series podcast for women who are ready to reclaim their truth and create from soul, not survival.
Florence shares her reflections on why this podcast took time to be born, how burnout has become a doorway to deeper alignment, and why now — in a world shaped by systems, AI, motherhood, and collapse — women are being called into something new.
Together we explore:
Why burnout isn’t failure — it’s a sacred signal
How systems of performance and extraction disconnect us from our essence
The deeper invitation of COVID, AI, and motherhood
What it means to trust your inner knowing and choose life on your terms
The ingredient needed to step over the threshold that’s been calling you
This is not just a podcast — it’s a space for mothers, women rising from exhaustion, seekers of life and freedom to breathe, remember, and rise.
You are not alone.
