A Call to Retrieve Your Soulskin & Return to Yourself

The Stay or Go Podcast for Women Considering Divorce - A podcast by Britta Jo - Tuesdays

Episode 18: Hey beautiful souls! 🌟 Today, we’re stepping into something so rich, so tender—and totally you. Imagine being a seal-woman (yes, myth and magic—and yes, you), dancing on land while tucked inside you is this wild, instinctual home under the sea. That’s the soul-skin—your wild woman’s armor, your creativity, your truth. And for so many of us, that seal-skin gets stolen. We dry up. We grow quiet. We lose us. But babe… you can come back. You can breathe back into your wild skin. This episode is your homecoming. 🌊🦭I’m drawing inspiration from Chapter 9 of Women Who Run with the Wolves—where Clarissa Pinkola Estés talks about how the seal-woman must return to the sea, to her skin, to her soul—especially after being lost to expectations and survival. That chapter? It had my name written all over it. And I just knew I had to bring it here for you.We’ll journey through stories of women (including me) who’ve felt that tide pulling them back. We’ll explore what it means when societal pressure steals our sparkle—and how we actually reclaim it, in messy, tender, potent ways that feel like home.What’s Waiting for You Inside This Episode:The mythic map of soul-skin loss and recovery (spoiler: it’s a wild✨ride)Personal stories of losing my own soul-skin—and the simple, sacred steps I took to find it againWhy those whispers from your heart (even when you're scared to listen) are actually the truest thing you’ll ever holdA peek at what’s coming next—spoiler alert: our next episode is diving into the impact of affairs on our soulhood (mark your calendars!) 📆This episode is for the woman who feels untethered, the one who senses she’s been living someone else’s version of love, strength, or identity. This is your permission to lean into your wildness, your pain, your soft edges—and gently stitch yourself back together with soul-led devotion.Your soul-skin is sacred. It’s rad. It’s yours—and it’s waiting to bloom again.With fierce love and full-hearted hugs, BrittaSupport the showYouTube Channel The Deep Dive - 3 Month One-on-One Coaching Intensive Stay or Go Community Instagram Facebook This is a public episode.
