What happens when a fiddle-playing, off-grid, freedom-loving spiritual anarchist invites you to her homestead—and hands you a loaded gun? You meet yourself in a way you never have before. And if you’re lucky, you come back changed.
In this electric episode of Fire & Soul, Michelle sits down with her soul sister and fellow sovereign rebel, Betsy Dewey—a philosopher, musician, homesteader, home-birther, and unapologetic truth-teller. They dive deep into a life well lived, from breaking free of mainstream narratives to creating a family rooted in love, liberty, and real-life connection.
What unfolds is a wildly refreshing conversation about reclaiming your power, questioning your assumptions, and choosing to live—truly live—in a world that often wants you numb.
In This Episode, We Explore:
How Betsy and her husband designed a sovereign life—on purpose
What home birth and homeschooling taught her about freedom
Why fear is the biggest trap of all (and how to break it)
Her unique approach to self-sovereignty: “Be the captain of your own damn boat”
The power of forgiveness, embodiment, and clean-hearted living
And what it really means to take life by the horns 🌱
Whether you’re brand new to the path of awakening or decades deep into your sovereignty journey, this one will light a fire in your soul—and make you want to ditch the screen, pick up a fiddle, and dance barefoot in the dirt.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
