Birth, Bees and Venom Medicine with Sasha Chadwick

In this episode, Anita sits down with Sasha Chadwick (creator of Hive Mind) for a grounded, yet mystical, conversation on bee venom medicine, the terrain model and what it means to rebuild trust in the body’s intelligence. Sasha shares her extraordinary entry into beekeeping (including a swarm landing on her doorstep), her personal healing journey through allergy, anaphylaxis and “purging" - and her evolving view of venom administration as a form of environmental exposure and recalibration. Together, they explore how the body interprets threat, how symptoms can be communication and why the hive itself is an archetype for community, contraction/expansion and renewal. This episode is a deep dive into sovereignty, nature’s patterns and the medicine of relationship - with striking parallels to birth and initiation at times! This episode is a conversation exploring philosophy, lived experience and ancestral frameworks around nature and health. Nothing shared is medical advice. Always seek qualified support for allergy, anaphylaxis, pregnancy and any medical concerns.

The Dead Template birthing the Wild Woman with Brittney Michelle

In this episode I sit down with Brittney Michelle - wild pregnancy, sovereign birthing mama and the woman behind Woman Be Wild.  Brittney shares the seven-year initiation that carried her from religious conditioning and “good girl” programming into a fully embodied, earth-rooted woman - and the magical 9 months she spent with her Mother, before the Father of her child walked into her life! We trace the moments that cracked her open: the vow she made to her bloodline, the near-death experience and the slow reclamation of her body, her language and her direct relationship with Spirit. Brittany takes us inside the bones of Woman Be Wild and why this fifth edition feels like the book finally “arrived.” She speaks to writing from a woman who has walked through the underworld, held the line through 2020 and birthed her baby in total sovereignty. We explore the “dead template” - the chain of cultural, religious, medical and political systems that bind women to a lifeless script, and what it means to consciously step outside of it so that real life, real birth and real motherhood can move through. We also weave the story of how our paths crossed – the invisible soul-network that connected us across countries. And the women scattered across the globe that are holding the same knowing - being the bridges between the system and the sovereign, the dead grid and the living earth. This conversation is for the woman who feels the deadness of the old systems, who has held the line with family, medicine, or culture - and who knows somewhere deep in her bones, that she is here to write her own program, birth her own way, remember herself – wildly, wholly, and free.

Infertility and Infidelity with Alex Croxford

In this intimate reunion episode, I sit down with international Love and Relationship Coach for Women, Alex Croxford - five years after first crossing paths in a Conscious Conception Tarot Reading Alex booked with me, in which the message of her infedility also came through.  (Yes we recap that - and the messages that came through from her gorgeous Spirit Baby!) What unfolded for Alex after 2020 became the catalyst for a profound unraveling and reawakening in Alex’s life. We explore the rarely voiced story of a woman’s journey in both infidelity - and infertility.  Alex shares how cheating on her ex-husband, whilst walking through the pain of an IVF journey, became the doorway to her deepest healing. Alex opens up about how that unraveling led to divorce, a spiritual awakening, celibacy, quitting her career as a TV Executive, a new relationship, pregnancy loss, her viral reel thats been viewed over 7 million times, the creation of her business and healing retreats - where she now guides other women through the same dark terrain she once walked alone. We speak about the shame and secrecy surrounding women and cheating, what drives someone to cheat, soul contracts and how many women - like Alex - reach their breaking point after years of self-betrayal and emotional suppression. This conversation goes deep into the territories of grief, guilt, personal reckoning and ultimately - transformation. You’ll hear about the sacred transformation that becomes possible when truth is finally spoken and how Alex’s medicine from her own personal healing journey now supports other women in their own reclamation.

Ritualising Disconnection of Mother and Baby with Veda

In this powerful and synchronistic conversation, Veda joins me to explore what it truly means to birth, and Mother, from a place of spiritual sovereignty. Our connection was deeply aligned from the beginning, and having the chance to come together in person (from opposite sides of the world!) made this conversation even more potent.  Together, we unravel the forgotten wisdom of lotus birth and placenta energetics, delving into its true purpose as the baby’s guardian and spirit guide on earth. We ask the question: when did we begin cutting the umbilical cord… and why? Tracing the roots of this intervention leads us into a larger conversation around ritualised disconnection, organised agendas, and the systemic efforts to sever the sacred bond between mother and child at birth. Veda opens up about her own journey into sovereignty - catalysed by a medical crisis and guided by messages from her spirit babies. We discuss how intentional trauma has been used to fragment the mind (including MK Ultra and religious programming), and how both medical and religious institutions serve the same purpose: to siphon life force and suppress the innate power of the mother. We share the identical message both our sons brought through, and what it truly means to raise children who are emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually free. Other key topics include: * The agenda behind circumcision * Veda’s personal experience with vaccine injury as a child * Reclaiming our right to choose from love, not fear * Trusting your baby’s wisdom * What it looks like to work with Veda This is a reclamation conversation.  You can find Veda at @veda.revival Host: Anita @themidwitch Join Mother Mystic here - https://www.themidwitch.com/mothermysticapp Studio and Producers: @wisecaststudio

Birth, Business & the Strawman with Abbey Rose

I have tried numerous times to add the show notes to this episode, with the words 'forbidden' continuing to come up when I attempt to save it. I'm not surprised. This is a powerful and controversial conversation and something is being flagged in what we're talking about.
