Ann Merivale – Woman Through the Ages

Aired Monday, September 19, 2022 at 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM GMT / 8:00 PM CET

Did you know that the first named piece of writing was the work of a Sumerian woman in approximately 2085 BC, while a Japanese woman wrote the world’s first novel in the eleventh century? Or that Hildegard of Bingen, the great twelfth-century Abbess, writer, and composer, defied the Church’s traditions by viewing feminine sexuality as a gift of God? Or that one of China’s most powerful Emperors was a woman? Women’s voices have been shaping our world for centuries. They have also been silenced and continue to be oppressed. Where does our voice come from? How is it linked to our memory?

Join Voice Visionary Kara Johnstad and author Ann Merivale in a conversation about her new book Woman Through the Ages. Drawing on deep memory process over a lifetime, Ánn uses previous lifetimes in her own history to shine essential light on our common journeys and the nature of consciousness. She may be the only one who can answer the question, is our soul a particular frequency that remains with us no matter which physical realm we are experiencing? Is our voice the red thread that transcends time? The time for equality and greater respect for feminine energy is finally arriving.

Sharon Blackie – Hagitude: Finding Your Voice and Growing New Bones

Aired Monday, September 12, 2022 at 11:00 AM PST / 2:00 PM EST / 7:00 PM GMT / 8:00 PM CET

Our story begins with the bone-deep metamorphosis of menopause. Where transformation is not only possible, it is inevitable. Why do stories matter? Because how we think about aging depends on the stories we tell about it. Stories are the stars we navigate by. They help us to unravel who we are and guide us to who we want to become. Join Kara Johnstad and mythologist and psychologist Sharon Blackie as they discuss Sharon’s new book, Hagitude: Reimagining the Second Half of Life. As we slowly burn away old identities and outdated structures, we begin to grow new bones and reclaim our unique voice. May we insist on blossoming, just when the world expects women to quiet and wither.

Just as a rainbow is made up of the colors the human eye sees as white light, our voice can also split into gorgeous harmonics.

Join Voice Visionary Kara Johnstad and Nestor Kornblum, sound healer and co-founder of the International Association of Sound Therapy, as they explore sounding the mathematics of creation.
