Thank Goddess

Share what this episode stirred in your heart The news surrounding Cornell 7 has been deeply triggering for so many survivors of sexual abuse, including myself.In this vulnerable episode of Thank Goddess, I’m opening up about my own experiences of abuse, the resurfacing of old trauma, and why hearing stories like this can affect us so deeply, even when we’ve spent years doing the work to heal.For survivors, seeing these stories unfold in the media can bring us right back to the pain we’ve worked so hard to move through. It can leave our nervous systems overwhelmed, bring buried memories and emotions to the surface, and make us question whether we’ll ever truly move on.I know this feeling all too well.I share some of my personal healing journey, including the years I’ve spent exploring therapy, embodiment, plant medicine, shamanic womb healing and other practices that have helped me reconnect with myself. I speak honestly about the reality of healing, why it isn't always linear, and how something can still hurt even after you've done so much inner work.I also reflect on the irony that, after experiencing so much hurt because of men, some of the very things that once caused me pain became part of the path that led me back to myself.This episode is for survivors who are feeling triggered, overwhelmed, angry, heartbroken or exhausted by what they're seeing in the news. It's also for those who love survivors and want to better understand why these stories can be so difficult to witness, why moving on isn't as simple as putting the past behind us, and how to offer meaningful support.Most importantly, I want to remind you that you are not back at square one just because an old wound has been reopened. Healing isn't erased by being triggered. You are allowed to have difficult days, to feel what you feel, and to take the time you need.And to anyone supporting a survivor: believe them. Listen without judgement. Sometimes, simply being believed and feeling safe enough to speak is everything.If this episode resonates with you, please know that you are not alone. ♡#Cornell7 #SurvivorSupport #TraumaHealing #BelieveSurvivors 🌙 Connect with Danielle Murnane: Astrology Birth Chart + Tarot Reading  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Tarot and Oracle Readings  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Reiki Energy In-Person Healings - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Monthly Women's Circles - Divine Feminine CircleJoin The Divine Feminine Circle and sign up to receive updates on all our upcoming events!Instagram: @divinefemcircleFacebook: Divine Feminine Circle Support the showFind Dani at the following platforms:Website:  www.daniellemurnane.comInstagram:  @danimurnani and @thankgoddessthepodcastTikTok:  @danimurnani

Share what this episode stirred in your heart What happens when a woman claims that the Divine is speaking directly to her?In this episode of Thank Goddess, we journey back to medieval France to explore the extraordinary life of Joan of Arc, the young mystic, prophetess and warrior who said she received divine guidance from an early age.At just 19 years old, Joan was condemned as a heretic and burned at the stake.But her story is about so much more than her death.Joan was a young woman who trusted her spiritual experiences, stepped into a world dominated by men, challenged the religious and political structures around her, and followed what she believed was her divine calling.Through the lens of the Divine Feminine, we explore Joan as the archetype of the Prophetess, the Warrior Woman and the Sacred Rebel.What does her story reveal about female spiritual authority? Why have women who claimed direct connection to the Divine so often been treated with suspicion? And what happens when a woman trusts the voice within her, even when the world tells her she shouldn't?This is a story about faith, courage, intuition, spiritual authority and the power of the feminine voice.🌙 Connect with Danielle Murnane: Astrology Birth Chart + Tarot Reading  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Tarot and Oracle Readings  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Reiki Energy In-Person Healings - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Monthly Women's Circles - Divine Feminine CircleJoin The Divine Feminine Circle and sign up to receive updates on all our upcoming events!Instagram: @divinefemcircleFacebook: Divine Feminine Circle Support the showFind Dani at the following platforms:Website:  www.daniellemurnane.comInstagram:  @danimurnani and @thankgoddessthepodcastTikTok:  @danimurnani

Share what this episode stirred in your heart What happens when a spiritual tradition removes women from positions of power, rewrites the stories of female mystics, and transforms the Divine into an almost exclusively masculine image?In this episode, we explore how the rise of patriarchal Christianity shaped the way women, the feminine, and spirituality itself have been understood for centuries.We’ll unpack the ways the Divine Feminine was suppressed, from the elevation of God as exclusively Father, King and Lord, to the restriction of women from spiritual leadership, and the reinterpretation of powerful women within Christian history.But this isn’t simply about looking backwards. It’s about asking: What happens to us when we grow up with a spirituality that reflects only one half of the Divine?And what might become possible when we reclaim the feminine as sacred, powerful, embodied, intuitive and worthy of spiritual authority?This episode is an invitation to question what we inherited, look beyond the stories we were given, and remember that the sacred has never belonged to one gender.The Divine was never only masculine. Maybe it’s time we remembered the rest of the story. 🌹Thank Goddess Episodes Mentioned:Sophia, Goddess of Wisdom - EP 66 Reclaiming Pleasure with Sabina Wilde - EP 88🌙 Connect with Danielle Murnane: Astrology Birth Chart + Tarot Reading  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Tarot and Oracle Readings  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Reiki Energy In-Person Healings - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Monthly Women's Circles - Divine Feminine CircleJoin The Divine Feminine Circle and sign up to receive updates on all our upcoming events!Instagram: @divinefemcircleFacebook: Divine Feminine Circle Support the showFind Dani at the following platforms:Website:  www.daniellemurnane.comInstagram:  @danimurnani and @thankgoddessthepodcastTikTok:  @danimurnani

Share what this episode stirred in your heart For generations, many of us were taught about sex through fear rather than understanding. We learned how to avoid pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, but rarely how to understand our bodies, recognise enthusiastic consent, or experience intimacy from a place of safety, connection and self-trust.In this episode of Thank Goddess, I'm joined by Integrative Sex and Intimacy Coach Sabina Wilde for a compassionate and empowering conversation about reclaiming our bodies and our birthright to pleasure.Together, we explore:Why pleasure extends far beyond the bedroom.How purity culture has influenced women's relationship with sex and desire.The myths surrounding virginity and why the hymen cannot determine whether someone is a virgin.Why pain during first-time sex has been normalised while pleasure remains misunderstood.Body literacy, enthusiastic consent and emotional readiness.What meaningful, body-positive sex education could look like.How reconnecting with your body can transform your confidence, relationships and sense of self.Whether you grew up in a religious household or simply absorbed society's messages about what it means to be a "good girl," this conversation is an invitation to release shame, reconnect with your body and remember that pleasure isn't selfish, it's part of being fully alive.I hope this episode reminds you that your body is not something to control or fix, but something to listen to, honour and come home to.About Sabina WildeSabina Wilde is an Integrative Sex & Intimacy Coach, educator, and founder of The Wonderfully Wilde Women's Collective. She helps women reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their pleasure, and build deeply fulfilling intimacy starting with the relationship they have with themselves.After spending much of her life feeling disconnected from her own body and femininity, Sabina now combines pleasure-based sex education with a compassionate, holistic approach to support women in moving beyond shame, people-pleasing, and self-abandonment. Her work explores desire, intimacy, nervous system regulation, body connection, and what it truly means to feel alive.Originally from Australia and now based in Vietnam, Sabina shares practical tools, honest conversations, and ongoing encouragement through her coaching, workshops, podcast, and online community, supporting women to come home to themselves, one small step at a time.Connect with Sabina:• Website: Sabina Wilde• Instagram: @thesabinawilde• Free live event: Come Home To Your Body• Podcast: The Sabina Wilde Podcast• Article:  I Spent 20 Years Wishing I Wasn’t a Woman — Here’s What Changed Everything• Online community: Wonderfully Wilde Women's Collective🌙 Connect with Danielle Murnane: Tarot and Oracle 1:1 Readings  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Reiki Energy In-Person Healings - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!90-Minute Soul Astrology Birth Chart + Tarot Reading  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Monthly Women's Circles - Divine Feminine CircleJoin The Divine Feminine Circle and sign up to receive updates on all our upcoming events!Instagram: @divinefemcircleFacebook: Divine Feminine Circle Support the showFind Dani at the following platforms:Website:  www.daniellemurnane.comInstagram:  @danimurnani and @thankgoddessthepodcastTikTok:  @danimurnani

Share what this episode stirred in your heart In this episode of the Thank Goddess Podcast, I’m delighted to welcome back author, teacher, and mystic Perdita Finn for a conversation about her powerful new book, Mothers of Magic: Summoning the Wisdom of Our Ancestors.If you enjoyed our previous discussion with Perdita and her husband Clark Strand on The Way of the Rose and the Divine Feminine mysteries hidden within the rosary (Episode 42), then you are going to love this conversation.Together, we explore what it meant to be a mother before civilisation narrowed the role into the modern definition we know today. As Perdita explains, mothering was once a communal act—one that extended far beyond gender, biology, or the nuclear family. It was a shared responsibility woven through an entire community, creating networks of care, belonging, and support.In our conversation, we discuss how reconnecting with this broader understanding of mothering can help us heal ourselves, our communities, and our relationships with our own mothers. We also explore the role of our ancestors, the wisdom available to us beyond the veil, and what becomes possible when we remember that we are part of a much larger lineage of love, care, and connection.This episode is a beautiful invitation to rethink what it means to nurture, to belong, and to be held by both the living and the dead.About Perdita Finn:Perdita Finn is the author of Take Back the Magic: Conversations with the Unseen World, Mothers of Magic: Summoning the Wisdom of Our Ancestors, and, together with her husband Clark Strand, The Way of the Rose: The Radical Path of the Divine Feminine Hidden in the Rosary. She teaches popular workshops on connecting and collaborating with both the dead and the animate world around us. Perdita lives with her family in the moss-filled shadows of the Catskill Mountains, where her work continues to bridge the seen and unseen worlds.Connect With Perdita Finn:Website: https://takebackthemagic.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/perdita.finnInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/perditafinn/🌙 Connect with Danielle Murnane: Tarot and Oracle 1:1 Readings  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Reiki Energy In-Person Healings - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!90-Minute Soul Astrology Birth Chart + Tarot Reading  - Book a 1:1 session with Danielle here!Monthly Women's Circles - Divine Feminine CircleJoin The Divine Feminine Circle and sign up to receive updates on all our upcoming events!Instagram: @divinefemcircleFacebook: Divine Feminine Circle Support the showFind Dani at the following platforms:Website:  www.daniellemurnane.comInstagram:  @danimurnani and @thankgoddessthepodcastTikTok:  @danimurnani
