Listen "110. Healing Ancestral Wounds in Relationships | Kayla MacDonald"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Spiritual Mentor and Narrative Alchemist Kayla MacDonald joins me to explore the deep work of healing ancestral patterns, reparenting yourself, and transforming generational shame into creative power.Kayla shares how even in a healthy marriage, her body held memories of her lineage’s pain—and how she learned to release it through somatic healing, dance alchemy, and playful, creative self-expression. We talk about breaking free from inherited cycles around love, body image, and self-worth—and how healing doesn’t have to be heavy. It can be sensual, creative, and deeply freeing.If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying wounds that aren’t entirely yours, or you’re ready to step into embodied wholeness, this conversation will speak to your soul.Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/wordsbyashleyann/https://www.tiktok.com/@wordsbyashleyannhttps://thestudiopress.co/Connect with Kayla: https://www.instagram.com/embodiedwritingwarrior/ https://www.embodiedwritingwarrior.com/giftChapters00:00 Reclaiming Self-Authorship and Power01:57 Navigating Ancestral Wounds in Marriage05:29 Healing Dynamics in Relationships09:35 The Role of Support in Healing14:05 Creating Safety in Relationships16:52 Understanding Inherited Wounds18:49 Transforming Wounds into Gifts20:05 The Divine Masculine and Playful Healing23:58 The Healing Power of Playfulness25:30 Transforming Self-Worth and Metrics27:51 Redefining Worth Through Values29:39 Navigating Social Media's Duality30:50 Innovative Journaling Methodology34:21 Launching Food Freedom Fantasy Program36:08 Integrating Archetypes for Self-Expression41:37 Embracing Emotions and Self-Compassion
