    Medium Dani Worrell returns for an incredible live podcast event recorded at Revival’s pop-up studio in downtown Iowa City, where she offers intuitive readings for the audience.

    • Dani’s recent personal intuitive reading with her mentor, where her grandmother came through—a powerful figure who once encouraged Dani to shut down her gifts, now returning with guidance and affirmation.
    • The importance of signs and synchronicities from the universe and from loved ones who have passed, and how we can learn to recognize and trust them.
    • How the connection with loved ones doesn’t end when they leave this earth, and how tuning into these signs keeps the door open.
    • Several live intuitive readings Dani performs for audience members, offering profound messages from the other side.
    • A collective reading for the entire room, including Dani’s message that women will be stepping more fully into their power in 2026—the Year of the Horse—claiming what they truly deserve.

    185. Ophira Eisenberg: Scars & Laughing Her Way to Happy Endings
    2025/12/05
    Today’s interview kept us laughing nearly the entire time, and yet was deeply poignant as our guest shared her story of scars. Ophira is a stand-up comedian, author, and story teller who has been lauded as one of the “top 10 comics that funny people find funny”. Our attention was rapt as we listened to her many physical and emotional scars and how she has been able to create art, humor, and even happy endings from her life experiences. In today’s episode we explore: Ophira’s early days as the youngest of six children in Alberta, Canada in a family where telling jokes was their love language. She speaks of two major events (one with a meat grinder) before the age of 10 that created deep scars on her body, and the ripples that these experiences had in her life.When she realized she was funny and decided to pursue a life as stand up comedian. She shares the challenges of this career and the humanizing power of it which is what keeps her going.How her work doesn’t avoid showing her own vulnerability and talking about hard things, but why in the end she prefers to write the happy endings.Her most recent show “Scars” (which Kate saw live) and how the audience participation has become her favorite part.The diagnosis of breast cancer and how it brought more scars which was devastating because she thought she was done with scars on her body.Her future projects, the liminal space, and how she views life as a year to year sublet. Bio: Ophira Eisenberg is a Canadian-born standup comedian, writer, and host. She hosted NPR’s comedy trivia show Ask Me Another for 9-years. She can be seen live, regularly headlining across the United States, Canada, and Europe delivering her unique blend of standup and storytelling to a loyal fan base of smart, irreverent comedy lovers. She has appeared on Comedy Central, This Week at The Comedy Cellar, Kevin Hart’s LOL Network, HBO’s Girls, Gotham Live, The Late Late Show, The Today Show, and VH-1. The New York Times called her a skilled comedian and storyteller with “bleakly stylish” humor. She was also selected as one of New York Magazine’s “Top 10 Comics that Funny People Find Funny,” and hailed by Forbes.com as one of the most engaging comics working today. Ophira is a regular host and teller with The Moth and her stories have been featured on The Moth Radio Hour and in two of The Moth’s best-selling collections, including the most recent New York Times Bestseller: How To Tell A Story: The Essential Guide to Memorable Storytelling from The Moth.

    183. Anger: Still Channeling the Fire
    2025/11/21
    “There is an aspect that women need to master if you’re going to be a wild woman and that is dealing with what can only be called women’s rage. The release of that rage is required. Once women remember the origins of their rage they feel they may never stop grinding their teeth. Ironically, we also feel very anxious to disperse our rage for it feels distressing and anxious. We wish to hurry up and do away with it. But, repressing it will not work.” —Clarissa Pinkola Estes in Women Who Run with the Wolves In this episode we explore: -How anger is often considered a “bad” emotion, but that it is truly useful information and can offer us energy to sort through the complexities of life -How perfectionism and the need to be nice can repress anger early in life -How Kate found anger and rage as young women in spaces (law, politics, human rights) where appropriate anger could be acknowledged and accepted -How Betsy, whose training was to be good, nice and likable, held anger back until later in life -How women often repress anger, which then can manifest in the body as depression, heart problems, digestive issues -Heathy ways to express anger and how to figure out what message anger is trying to give us A Finnish study that mapped emotions onto where they are felt in the body https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1321664111 Past Episodes You Might Like with Kate & Betsy: Episode 163: Rage As Teacher Episode 131: Life Quakes Episode 124: Shadow Work Episode 98: Shake if Off: Facing the Criticism and Embracing Your Light Episode 76: Women Finding Their Voice Episode 55: Boundaries & Self Sabotage Episode 42: Midlife Awakening: Rise from the Ashes Episode 33: Anxiety: Surrender with Gratitude Episode 30: Grief: It’s Complicated Today’s Episode sponsored by: Kate Moreland Coaching Dr Yoga Momma Heartland Yoga Want to do your own Heroine’s Journey with Dr. Betsy?

  • 182. Uma Subramaniam: Yoga is Life

    182. Uma Subramaniam: Yoga is Life
    2025/11/14
    In today’s episode, we dive into a rich and inspiring conversation with yoga teacher Uma Subramaniam. Uma shares her journey from growing up in India—where yoga was a natural part of daily life—to her years in the U.S. financial industry, and ultimately, to rediscovering her calling as a lifelong student and teacher of yoga. Through her story, Uma beautifully illustrates how yoga is not just a practice, but a way of being—one that guides her understanding of purpose, balance, and self-awareness. In this episode, we explore: Roots in India: Uma’s early exposure to yoga through her father and how morning practices by the sea taught her stillness, breath, and focus.A Spirited Beginning: How she describes her young self as a “Tasmanian devil,” and how yoga offered her a grounding foundation even as a child.Life Choices and Transitions: The story of her arranged marriage, her studies in international business, and her move to the United States.Returning Home: Her family’s decision to move back to India—to care for her parents and reconnect their children with their heritage and culture.A New Chapter: Uma’s choice to leave the corporate world and return to yoga as a path to healing and wholeness—ultimately earning her master’s degree in yoga and opening six yoga studios.Yoga as a Way of Life: Uma’s belief that yoga is life itself—that its true purpose is to help us understand who we are and why we are here.What’s Next: Her excitement about the upcoming Yoga Teacher Training with Betsy and Kimberly, launching in Iowa City in January 2026.Bio: Uma’s early experiences with yoga started at the age of 10 with her father, and strictly adhered to traditional yogic principles that included practicing before sunrise on an empty stomach. An Arts graduate with a specialization in English Literature, she later went on to pursue an associate degree in International Business. She worked as an Internal Auditor for one of the top banks in the US and lived in the US for over a decade. When she moved back to India in 2008, she turned back to yoga for personal practice and soon decided to teach. She has a Master’s Degree in Yogic Sciences, a Master’s degree in Vedanta (philosophy) and is a Yoga Alliance Registered ERYT500 Teacher, RCYT(Children’s Yoga) and RPYT(Prenatal Yoga) certified teacher from the Yoga Academy. Uma designs her classes to work slowly into classical practices beginning with awareness to spine, breath and the mind space. “I like my students to experience transformation with even a simple 30 minute practice”. She considers herself still a student, a teacher and therapist, a believer in yoga, naturopathy, ayurveda and natural, holistic and wholesome treatment of the human body and mind. Her happiness and satisfaction lies in her students improving steadily and in having strengthened their interest and belief in yoga, and holistic treatment of their body and mind. She is happiest when she is also able to encourage them to inculcate this new-found way of living among their family and friends. With experiential knowledge of different schools of yoga (Sivananda, Satyananda, Iyengar, Ashtanga, Yin and hot yoga), and having watched the yoga industry bloom around the world and particularly in Bangalore, Uma helps lead your way to the many options and offerings yoga has for the discerning seeker. Heartland Yoga Teacher Training: January 2026 This hatha training, co-taught by 3 experienced teachers, will prepare you to not only teach yoga but will introduce you to scientific research in psychology, neuroscience, and mindfulness to offer trauma informed practices to support mental health and healing.

    181. The Year of Endings & Beginnings
    2025/11/07
    At the start of Season 3 on Tend Her Wild, astrologer and coach Cathy Pagano talked about 2025 as a year of endings and beginnings. Today Kate and Betsy get personal and reflect on a moment in Iceland 4 years ago when they both had an inkling of something hard they were going to have to face. Kate faced her challenge 2 years ago that we discussed in Episode 44, and now Betsy is facing her challenge. We had no idea where this conversation would go, but feel it is an exploration into honesty, nudges from the soul, and surrender. In today’s episode we discuss: Betsy’s internal process and her story of leaning into a big relationship change.The messiness of life, navigating times of doubt, and how our brain resists change which is why it’s easy to stay in complacency.The pockets of darkness, self-hatred, shame and guilt that accompany divorce.The moment Betsy turned inward, quit asking for people’s insights or perspectives, and chose to move into trust-fall and surrender.How when we don’t shed our skin like the snake, we cannot survive.Following the soul, breaking generational patterning, midlife reckoning, and moving into a life of more authenticity and truth.

    180. Ginette Biro: A Near Death Experience & Divine Connection to the Other Side
    2025/10/31
    Today’s interview was both eye opening and fascinating as we interviewed Ginette Biro, a medium (someone who can see, hear, and communicate with spirits on the other side). We hear about her journey of opening into these gifts, and a near death experience she had at 2019 that encouraged her to step up and show more of her wisdom and perspective. In today’s episode we: Learn how Ginette was already seeing spirits by the age of 5, but had no language to express it, nor family members with a similar gift.How her psychic gifts continued to grow and she began to hear spirit around 17 years old which freaked her out and led her to find mentors and guides to create a framework for her, and help her learn to discern her voice from the voice of spirit.How friends and family responded to knowing about her gifts, and the naysayers along the way.The near death experience that happened to Ginette in 2019 during a routine surgery that took her to heaven where she was greeted by friends and family on the other side.The white room that Ginette eventually made it to during her near death experience where she saw the blueprint of her life, had a life review, was given the option to change destiny points, and the decision she made to return to her body instead of stay in the realm of spirit.The agreement she made to spirit that she would step up and share more of what she knew with the world, and how Ginette is doing just that. Bio: Ginette Biro s a powerful medium who is clairaudient, clairvoyant, clairsentient and claircognizant. She can hear, see, feel and know information from spirit and other dimensions. Since Ginette was a child, she has been channeling beings from the 4th to 12th dimensions, connecting people to the other side and bringing messages to inspire and inform our world. Ginette has many spirit guides and ascended masters and beings who are guiding her to support the planet in its ascension. In addition to these remarkable gifts, she has spent soul time on the other side through a near death experience. This allowed her to see and understand how our life blueprint and soul’s journey actually works. Learn more about Ginette’s work at www.avalonspirit.com.
