Join myself Tara Preston, Host of Radiant Matriarch for an expansive paradigm shifting conversation around increasing over-flow in midlife & beyond. 

In this episode we reclaim the joy of more by redefining it as nourishment, pleasure, and sovereignty rather than hustle, achievement, and depletion. We explore how nervous system capacity, deep listening, a reclamation of a woman's inner eco-system, emotional processing, and simple sacred acts create real overflow in midlife and beyond.

In this episode we cover:

• reframing more from achievement to nourishment
• conditioning that teaches women to override the body
• midlife recalibration through womb and heart listening
• building capacity for joy, vitality, and prosperity
• taking up space with boundaries and creative power
• somatic practice to discharge tension and receive more
• sovereignty as inner alignment that invites overflow

Now is the time. Maybe the maiden version of you gave herself away, but not the queen that you are becoming in midlife and beyond. It is time to claim yourself, and it is time to claim space for yourself.

SPEAKER_00:

Welcome to Radiant Matriarch, a gathering place for way showers, mothers, visionaries, and leaders ready to embody a new paradigm of feminine leadership for these changing global times. I'm your host, Tara Preston, transformational leadership guide, Akashic teacher, and creator of the Flower of Life Akashic Method, serving the global feminine for over 14 years. Here we rise beyond the old models of hierarchy, control, exhaustion, depletion, and into a way of leading rooted in radiance, sovereignty, and creational feminine power. Together we heal the motherline, expand our capacity through nourishment, and cultivate sustainable prosperity that honors the true design of women. This is leadership as sacred activism. Love and liberation in motion, creating personal freedom and transforming families, communities, and the world. While each episode may feel like a small step, I know it does to me. Together, they build momentum toward a higher vision for all of us. Stay tuned for today's episode. Hello and welcome to Radiant Matriarch. I'm your host, Tara Preston, and today I want to talk about the joy of more. We have so many limitations and conditioning around what it means to have more as women and what it means to actually be more as women. And so today I wanted to touch into this topic of the joy of more, especially how that applies to our mid-life expansion, right? And where we can tend to cut ourselves off from receiving more vitality, more nourishment, more joy, more prosperity, just more life when it comes to the version of us that is ready to shift from depletion and into this space of overflow, which we're gonna be talking about and moving through in the upcoming sovereignty series. These are three 90-minute experiential journeys that will take you deep into energetic rewiring, bringing you home to a deeper truth, a deeper space of flow, really looking at where there is an edge to building a capacity to receive more. And this is different than, you know, the joy of more, like the sense of feeling alive, how we can allow prosperity to circulate into our experience so that we can we can actually understand in a really embodied way what overflow, even in terms of prosperity, looks and feels like in our bodies, in our bank accounts, and in our lives. So very often when we talk about more, right, a past version of ourselves might have thought it applied to more success, more achievement, more doing, right? And then what happens is that we end up running from a space of depletion. Our cup is not full. And there's a lot of conditioning that goes around that. By the time we reach midlife, our 40s, our body's often paying the price, right? Feeling really out of balance. The feminine system is not meant to push, go, do, and always be striving for more. And what can often happen is that we disconnect from the heart, we disconnect from the soul and the womb, right? Because we are disconnected and we can fall into that programming and that patterning that keeps us seeking external validation. And we often will do that by placing another goal in front of us when we get here, when we do that, when we have this, then it will be more than enough, then I will be more than enough. But after years and years of existing like that in such an inverted way, it really disconnects us from the natural design of the feminine body. We disconnect from the beauty of our dreams, from our deeper needs, our truth, our wants, our desires as women. And so the joy of more actually becomes an invitation into an experience of how we get to feel very nourished by our life, but also very nourished by those exact things that I just touched on. Very nourished by our needs, our wants, our desires, by the beauty of our dreams, which is a different place to tap into when it comes to co-creating our life. Right? It's not necessarily goal-oriented. It becomes much more about our desires, about our sacred calling in the world, what it means to live from a very embodied place of radiance, of truth, of vitality and power, right? You can really feel in a woman when she's stable in her body. There's a very grounded sense of nourishment in her body. And that means to me, when I look at that, that's that is a woman who has done the work to dismantle the paradigm of go push, do hustle, which is exactly what we're deepening into in sovereignty series this upcoming three weeks. It's all about womb, soul, and flow. Womb, soul, and flow. So we're dissolving a lot of the conditioning, a lot of the patterns. We're looking at the mother line, the father line. We're doing internal work that actually starts to unpack and support nervous system rewiring so that we can build our capacity to hold more, but from a deeper aligned place of what it is that you desire as a woman, right? Prioritizing that space that really allows you to recalibrate your life into that space of overflow, of joy, right? Of joy. So the joy of more, redefining expansion in midlife. The sovereignty series is really an invitation to carve out that space, to come into a space of listening, of prioritizing more of what you need, want, desire, what the beauty of your dreams are. And I have to say, particularly when it comes to the joy of more, a lot of this has to do with creativity, vitality, pleasure, connection. These are all really beautiful attributes of the feminine. And when we come into spaces like the Sovereignty Series or really any of my work, and by the way, there's an invitation to work with me privately through this the Sovereignty Series six-week journey as well. So when we prioritize that space, just give me a moment. I just lost the thread of what I was sharing here. And I don't want to restart this podcast because so far I'm just like loving what's coming through. And just give me a moment. Oh, it is gone. So making that invitation to prioritize ourselves, to take the time to get that inner alignment, to uncover what it is that we need here, it is, is that women have many needs. We have many needs, but we have since the time of being small, and specifically since the time of our bleed, we're often conditioned to not listen to what we need. I love giving this example because if you think back to your very first menses, your very first bleed, what often happens is it was not always, but it was an incredibly awkward experience with our mothers. That that's often a common scenario. Um, there's not a real invitation into like listening to what the body needs. It's often just like, you know, pop some Tylenol and like get back out there, pop some some Advil and go, you know, go play your sport or get to school or just continue on with daily life, with daily living. When really what our body is asking for is listening. It's a really, it's a very yin time of being. And so that space of listening to our bodies, listening to the emotional density that is really present in our experience as young women, it gets overrode. So we're conditioned at a very young time to self-abandon, really, to override the deeper needs, the deeper emotional intelligence that's actually at play during that time. So this is another aspect of coming into this space of sovereignty, of being in this place of overflow where we stop overgiving and where we come home to ourselves and establish our own, our own ecosystem of what it is that we need, want, desire, the beauty of our dreams. And we really start, and also the beauty of our dreams, but also just emotionally, the layers that we're feeling. I can, if we don't take time to recalibrate and to honor and to listen and actually feel through the density of our emotions, we get stuck, we get stagnant, things stop flowing, right? And that can be uncomfortable. Sometimes, because of that conditioning of going, doing, hustling, it can be uncomfortable to actually stop and start to listen, to start to breathe into our emotions, to start to feel into our bodies, to start to listen to what that more vulnerable aspect of ourselves is saying or crying out for. Right. This can even show up in, you know, like overriding our need to like go to the bathroom to go pee, right? All of a sudden it's like there's urgency. This depends on the person, but there's this urgency because there's there's such an overriding of the voice of the body. But I want to bring it back to that space of deep listening, of really honoring the emotional intelligence of the feminine body. And we're not necessarily given the tools or the space to move through that, right? To start to slow down, to start to take us out of. And by the way, this is different than yoga or meditation. This is really listening to our feminine intelligence, the feminine embody, the feminine body, right? It's it's like it's a skill that allows us to strengthen our feminine um power. And as we move through the layers of this, we're able to anchor our power in a much deeper way. And as we open to and we we drop into more of our power as women, we actually start to take up more space in the world. We start to take up more space. We become much more anchored, we become much more of an influence on our environment. We start to take up space in a way that honors our own creative flow and our own creative power. Um, and there's there's an influence in our own creative dreams, right? And see, so many women are buried underneath the needs of everyone else, their children, their spouses, their parents, their siblings. And there's no space for them to be able to carve out, right, this space to just honor themselves, their needs, their feelings, their wants. And when we do that, there's a visit, but there's a missing visibility piece, right? If we want life to meet us in a really beautiful and powerful co-creative place, there has to be space for it. We have to be in our power and in our sovereignty and in our own divine flow as women. Because if we're buried under the needs of everyone else energetically, there's no room for the ease of manifestation or co-creation or prosperity or clients or opportunities to start to line up to meet us. And when we say yes to these deeper pieces, the deeper wants, desires, the beauty of our dreams, we really need to be able to acknowledge what it is and claim it for ourselves, to really unearth it, to get into the root system of what that is. And then we need to make space for it. And that's where the ease comes from. It's from the inner alignment, from the spaciousness, from how we learn to hold our power as women. When we give ourselves away, when we override the deeper alignment of who we are, what we need, who we're being called to be in the world, right? There's an imbalance that happens internally. Our life is not balanced externally to the true deeper needs and expression of who we are as women. I see this happen a lot. Women who love beauty, harmony, balance, but they're and they're they're catering externally to everyone else to try not to create upheaval. And yet they're suffering inside. And what they really need to do is create internal balance, get clear on who they are, what they need, how to position themselves in the world around them, and then make space for that, and then let others recalibrate to that so that she can take up space with her authenticity, her voice, her truth, her freedom, as well as everyone else. And I will tell you that anytime any human being does this, it is only for the highest good. We live in a society that works out of obligation. It works for the patriarch to have us work out of obligation because we're catering to others. We're catering to others. And if you continue to cater to others and you continue to say yes when really you mean no, you're just gonna get, you're gonna continue to get more experiences that ask you to override what it is that you deeply need, want, what your what your true voice has to say, right? And the beauty of your dreams. Life can and will recalibrate around you, and it's beautiful because it sets you as a woman free and it creates a radiance through your being. It creates radiance through your being in a very anchored way that brings you home to yourself, that stabilizes your nourishment and your power, and it becomes a gift to others. You become the nourishment just through your presence. And this is why we absolutely need to prioritize our own sovereignty as women. Now, that is the invitation for the upcoming sovereignty series. I'm just gonna go ahead and move us through a little bit of a somatic visualization in this place. And then I'm gonna make an invitation to join me for the upcoming sovereignty series. And I will say this is an intro to this three-week journey. It's 90 minutes. We move through some somatic work, we move, we journey through the Akashic records, through the Akashic field, we work on motherline and fatherline repatterning. We're gonna get into nurturing that creative spark from the level of the womb to open up more Shakti through your life, more nourishment. And then we're gonna get into expanding your capacity for more nourishment, more joy, more vitality, more creativity, more spaciousness, more connection, right? The things that actually feed you and allow you to start to rescript your identity and your experience of self through the midlife rebirth portal. Now is the time. Now is the time. Maybe the maiden version of you gave herself away, but not the queen that you are becoming in midlife and beyond. It is time to claim yourself, and it is time to claim space for yourself. All right, so let's go ahead and close our eyes. I want to invite you to take a breath in through the nose, down deep into the womb space. And we're gonna take a moment and just to be present with the heart and the womb. Taking in a few more breaths in through the nose, down into the womb space, and up and out through the mouth. Now, as you're sitting in this space, I want you to go ahead and you can keep breathing. And you're gonna continue to slowly, hopefully, you're sitting or sitting on the floor cross-legged, you're gonna rock back and forth, hand over heart, hand over womb. Taking a breath in as you rock back, breathing out as you move forward. We're just gonna continue to let that rhythm just tune you in. Keep listening, keep feeling, letting it feel good. Rhythm feels good. And now in this place, you can go ahead and we're gonna start to do some circles. Just at the waist, at the hips, you're just slowly going back around and forward. Head back and you're breathing. And then you're letting go, putting your head to the back. Letting it center you, letting it feel good. Then I want you to stand up and just give your body a shake. Shaking out your arms. Shaking out your arms, shaking out your um your feet, your legs, shaking out your torso. Beautiful. You're gonna have to stand up for this. We're gonna bring our again our attention to the emotional center of the womb space. So you can go ahead and just spread your feet hip width apart. Bending your knees a bit, placing both your hands on the womb space. Hip swirl slowly back and forward. Oh, there's my dog who's gonna go. Sorry about that. And we're taking a moment and just listening and breathing. And I just want you to ask your essence. Where in your life right now are you withholding more joy from yourself? More joy, more vitality, more love. Where are you withholding? Because more feels brings up layers of shame, of guilt, of sadness, of this idea of having too much or having more than more than enough, even feels shameful. Just breathing into the womb space, hip circles. And where are you ready to where are you ready to receive more joy, more vitality, more nourishment in your life right now? What does that look like? Where have you been withholding? And where does it look like? What are you it's almost like, you know, where are you thirsty? Where are you hungry right now? Where do you need to feed yourself with joy, vitality, nourishment? And be honest. Okay, and I'm gonna make the invitation. What is one way that you can honor that? Just over the next few days. What is one way that you can honor that? And create the space for it. Keep it simple, but create the space for it. Make it sacred. Whatever it is. This could be a small ritual, it could be a nourishing meal, it could be time with a friend, it could be a slow walk in nature. Make it sacred. Make it a gift to yourself. And this is how we start to build our capacity for more joy. We do it one step at a time. This is how it becomes embodied. This is how we build an integrated capacity in our nervous system. It's one step at a time. And if you want to continue going deeper, right, this is three weeks of just nourishment, coming home to ourselves, really examining where we're ready to reclaim more of our power and our energy, deep clearing work, somatic work, really coming into the womb space in a very anchored and nourished way, starting to recalibrate your life from the inside out, moving into a space of divine flow and prosperity, right? Some paradigm shifts in there and what it means to come into that space of overflow and hold it. So making that invitation right now, it's 250 USD.
