• 617: Why So Many Women Are Choosing Not To Have Children- Child-Free By Choice with Sahara Rose

  This week’s solocast is one that might get me canceled… but you know what? it’s also one of the most important. 🌱   For so long, women have been told our purpose is to have children—and if we don’t, we’re selfish. In this episode, I share my own journey of wrestling with that question. From believing I’d “want kids someday,” to a plant medicine journey that told me I was here to be a mother, to the deeper truth I’ve come back to: right now, I don’t believe motherhood is my path.   I talk about the “good girl” conditioning so many of us carry, the reality of how marriage + motherhood impact women differently than men, and why I see more women choosing to remain child-free as an act of resistance.   This isn’t about saying one choice is better than the other—it’s about being radically honest with yourself. Your worth isn’t tied to whether or not you have kids. Your life matters. Your dharma matters. 🌹   Join Embodiment Certification Waitlist - be the first to know when the FREE 3-part mini  series drops! https://highestselfinstitute.com/embodiment-join-waitlist   If you are looking for a diverse + nourishing community of like-minded souls I’d love to invite you to join the waitlist of Rose Gold Goddesses at https://www.rosegoldgoddesses.com    Receive 10% off your first month of therapy with our sponsor Betterhelp at https://www.betterhelp.com/sahara    Discover Your Dharma - Order your copy now - https://iamsahararose.com/dharma   Stream the Intro + Outro Music: Trust Flow by Sahara Rose ft.

• 616: The Real Reason We Go Through Love + Loss in Relationships with Dr. Zach Bush, MD

  Am I the only one who feels like relationships are both the most beautiful and the most challenging part of being human?   Sometimes it feels like we’re asked to hold so much love, loss, change, grief and still show up open-hearted. 🫀   This question has been alive in me ever since my divorce. And in this week’s Highest Self Podcast, I had one of the deepest conversations on the podcast so far with Dr. Zach Bush, MD on what relationships are really here to teach us.   At one point he said something that gave me chills: 💫 Relationships are not meant to complete us. They’re meant to mirror us to reflect the love and also the wounds we carry.   And suddenly… it all made sense.   Here’s what we’’ll discover inside this episode: 🌹 How the rapid rate of change in our culture is affecting our nervous systems + our capacity for intimacy 👁️ Why curiosity is the key ingredient that keeps love alive 🌀 How grief + heartbreak are actually part of the frequency of unconditional love ✨ Why relationships are a mirror for our own beauty and shadow 🌊 How unconditional love is a frequency that moves through all things, like a wave that never stops 💔 Why longing and loss are not failures, but sacred reminders of love’s presence   This isn’t just a conversation about romance, it's about remembering that love in all its forms is here to guide us deeper into truth.   Dr. Zach said something  that stuck with me: unconditional love isn’t an emotion that comes and goes. It’s a vibration one that exists beyond time and space, always circling back to us. 🌌   So if you’ve ever wondered why love feels so hard, or why heartbreak lingers, this episode will feel like a balm for your soul. 🕊️   👉 “Explore Zach Bush’s full ION line — from Gut Support to Skin Support, Cognitive Clarity, Immune Health, and Deep Sleep solutions. https://intelligenceofnature.com/collections/bundles?uid=19&oid=1&affid=449   Follow Dr. Zach on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachbushmd/   Glow up after your heartbreak with my Ultimate Heartbreak Healing Course - https://iamsahararose.com/heartbreak   Join Embodiment Certification Waitlist  https://highestselfinstitute.com/embodiment-join-waitlist   Discover Your Dharma - Order your copy now - https://iamsahararose.com/dharma   Stream the Intro + Outro Music: Trust Flow by Sahara Rose ft.

• Clearing Ancestral Karma + Subconscious Blocks with Frank Elaridi

  I never imagined I would experience such profound upgrades while being back in my ancestral lands, just miles away from the South of Iran where my mother’s lineage is from.  I found myself tapping into a new level of queen frequency. Channeling Nefertiti energy. And with that came a massive purge of unconscious blocks I didn’t even know I was carrying. And then, in a way only the universe could orchestrate… I ended up in a healing session at the side of a party. That night I met Frank Elaridi  a four-time Emmy Award-winning journalist turned energy healer and spiritual coach. Within minutes of talking, I felt like I knew him from a past life. In this powerful episode of the Highest Self Podcast, we dive into: ✨ How to uncover the original reference point of your blocks 🌀 Why your body stores patterns of fear, avoidance, or hyper-independence 💘 The connection between trauma and your ability to receive love 🌿 How ancestral lineage and past lives can hold codes that affect your current relationships 🔑 Why true healing doesn’t require rehashing your pain 🌹 And how clearing these blocks creates space for sacred union… within and around you Frank’s work is revolutionary because it gets right to the root. No bypassing. No over-intellectualizing. No staying stuck. Just deep energetic shifts that free you to become the version of yourself who can actually receive what she desires. This episode is for the woman who knows she’s ready for the next level of love — but something has felt in the way.

We explore: What to do when your partner isn’t growing with you How to avoid falling back into old gender roles Why most people settle for a relationship that’s just “fine” What it takes to build a conscious, connected partnership This episode is for the woman who’s ready to be met, seen, and chosen as her truest self.   Do you want me to shorten it further so it’s just one strong paragraph for the About section?   Explore  Sarah Jenks instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahjenks/?hl=en   Find out more about her and her husband's offerings here: https://sarahjenks.com/   Sign up this week and get 25% off with this code: 25SWS at checkout!
