Women Waken: Spiritual Healing for Trauma in Relationships to Shift from Codependency to Divine Feminine
My name is Whitney Walker, welcome to Women Waken! I am a Licensed Mental Health Therapist specialising in substance abuse, addiction, eating disorders, trauma, and Spirituality. Over 10 years ago I walked into a therapist office for the first time because I realised that I felt incapable of handling life. I abused drugs and alcohol, had rock bottom self esteem, often felt suicidal, was very self destructive, and had no idea how to resolve what felt like a complete mess inside my mind and emotions. After years of therapy, getting sober, and choosing to begin the journey of unconditional self love for myself, things started to change. My self esteem rose along with my self regard and kindness towards myself. I knew there was only one thing I wanted to do with the rest of my life; help others out of the place that I was in and start figuring out how we can end these cycles for good, for all of us. Women Waken is building community and offering a platform for Women to come together who share a vision of creating a new way of life where insecurity, low self esteem, and self- destruction are no longer the norm. Where we are able to rebalance the dynamic between the inner and outer Worlds so that our ability to love and accept ourselves is no longer dependent on externals. On this show, we speak to Women who are seeking to heal from traumas/habits/addictions that are keeping them in a place of disempowerment who are ready to begin aligning with their true self and are ready to let their light shine I release two episodes a week, an interview and solo episode, If you feel ready to reclaim your power and stand in your Divine light I hope this show finds you!

Every person is unique in how they've learned to connect with and attach to others in romantic relationships. Many would say that these attachment styles are developed early on in infancy & childhood and stick with us into later life. Attachment styles impact how we conduct ourselves in our human connections. Many theories have been developed around attachment styles with prominent thought pointing to 4 specific types of attach...

Humanity has learned to keep itself very busy. Busy and distracted. To the point that It's becoming increasingly difficult for us to go even 15 seconds without some form of stimulation be it from our phones, computers, or other devices. The art of being still, present, and aware of our surroundings sadly seems to be slipping away from the human experience. Yet, not so fast. The...
It's a difficult realization when you see the places in your life where you have compromised, abandoned, and minimized yourself. Unfortunately, one of the most common realms where this occurs for Women is in dating. My guest this week, Maraya Karena, has created a vibrant business around her approach to this this phenomenon and sheds light on how to reclaim ourselves in the midst of Men. Maraya explains how most women have spent ye...

How often do you take the time to slow down and really take in the beauty of everything around you? The beauty of a flower, a moment, a smile, a laugh, a feeling of love, the food on your plate, the water flowing through a creek. There is beauty everywhere all the time, it's only of matter of whether we choose to consciously take it in and appreciate it for the unique...

Ok, hear me out here. I'm not making accusations, I just wanted to share some thoughts that came to me about being stuck in one dead end, dramatic relationship after the other. Intensity, passion, deceit, manipulation, confusion, ups & downs, on & on. I thought to record this episode when in a moment of nostalgia over an ex I realized that it's impossible...
Hello My Beloved Listeners,
I'm so sorry that it has been so long since I have been able to speak to you directly.

I'll still be on the go so additional new episodes might be sparse, I just wanted you all to know that I love you and haven't forgotten abou...

After doing a few episodes on tips to increase your chances of getting into a healthy romantic connection, I thought I'd take the next step. Once you're dating someone, how do you monitor your own defensive tendencies that crop up once we get into the early stages of relationships?
On this identify and Heal episode, I offer a few key steps you can take to identify, address, ...

The old adage is true; breaking up is hard to do. There is nothing quite like the ending of a romantic relationship to truly feel like you've been punched ...
*This episode was originally released in June 2023. Wondering if my current audience still resonates with the dating episodes:)
Breaking up is hard to do. It can be absolutely brutal when a relationship comes to an end leaving us feeling like a life force we've come to know and enjoy has just disappeared. There can be a lot of crying, deep sadness, confusion, questions, and intense longing to reconnect with our lost love. The more c...

I'm on a Self Love kick lately and I'm hoping many of you will join me. especially after the eclipse and New Moon in Libra this past weekend.

Falling in love with ou...
Music, happiness, and inspiring others are a few of my favorite things. Which is why I was very excited to speak with this week's guest, Galen Bingham, The Leadership Strategist and host of the fabulous podcast, Whisky, Jazz, and Leadership. Although I've been sober now for 10 years, I'm able to relate to Galen's concept for his show where Whisky represents savoring & appreciating life and Jazz & Leadership are our own bril...

People often ask what the personal Mission Statement is for your life. Which is an awesome exercise to do. Yet I particularly like the concept that this week's guest asks, What is your Soul Statement? Corey Lyon Folsom published his book, Soul Statements: A Love Coach’s Guide To Successful Communication in an effort to inspire others to simplify and improve their lives. His book is a practical guide full of simple, yet potent...
Regret is not inherently a bad thing to experience. In its initial stage regret can enable us to realize that we do not prefer the choice or action we made in a situation and would act differently in the future. Regret can keep us chained to the past, however, if we feel unable to learn from it, release it, and move on. Easier said than done sometimes, especially if we feel that something we did or didn't do changed the course of o...
It is such a delightful surprise when a synchronistic event seems to pop up out of no where. Something as simple as seeing the same recurring numbers over and over again everywhere (we call them Angel numbers, always good to look up the meaning of the specific numbers you're seeing) or seeing a message on a billboard that seems to answer the exact question you were contemplating in your mind. Or it could be something that really st...
