In this fiery, full-spectrum solo episode, Emily peels back the curtain on what it means to live, lead, mother, and rise in a world that feels like it’s coming undone. From the raw truth of first-trimester exhaustion to the grief of what we’re collectively navigating—and the audacity it takes to dream a different way forward—this conversation is equal parts personal and political, tender and unapologetic.

You’ll hear her explore the unraveling of outdated systems, the confrontation with deeply rooted conditioning, and her vision for rebuilding not just a better life—but a better world. She unpacks the difference between patriarchy and matriarchy (hint: it’s not just who’s in charge), the sacred messiness of identity reconstruction, and why this moment is calling wild women everywhere to rise, reclaim, and remember who they are.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by the chaos, questioning everything you’ve been taught, or holding the tension between grief and hope—this one’s for you. Consider this your rally cry. Because the way forward isn’t about waiting for permission or perfection. It’s about women like you choosing to lead anyway.
