Laura Bonetzky-Joseph

In this episode of Triggers in Spiritual Medicine, host Laura Bonetzky-Gaffney explores the powerful theme of Remembering the Inner Wise Woman.

Across generations, the intuitive wisdom and leadership of women has often been silenced, persecuted, or erased through systems of control and historical trauma. From the persecution of healers during the European witch hunts, to institutions like the Magdalene Laundries in Ireland, to the suppression of Indigenous spiritual traditions through European colonization of the Americas, the echoes of these events still live in our collective and ancestral memory.

In this deeply reflective episode, Laura invites listeners to explore how these histories have shaped the way many women relate to their intuition, voice, and spiritual authority today.

Through guided questions and storytelling, she encourages listeners to reconnect with the ancient wisdom carried within their bodies, lineage, and lived experiences.

Listeners are invited to explore three ways to reconnect with the Inner Wise Woman:
• Listening to the wisdom of the body
• Reconnecting with ancestral knowledge and lineage
• Creating space for silence, stillness, and deep inner listening
The episode also includes a guided drum meditation designed to help listeners quiet the thinking mind and connect with the deeper voice of the Inner Wise Woman within.

Laura concludes with an invitation for those who feel called to continue this exploration in community.

She will be presenting further on this topic at the Inspired Life! Women’s Weekend of Love, Light & Laughter in Quincy on April 11–12, where participants will have an opportunity to go deeper into the work of reclaiming feminine wisdom, spiritual sovereignty, and ancestral remembering.

This episode is an invitation to reflect on a powerful question:
What if the wisdom you have been searching for has been within you—and within your ancestral line—all along?

ABOUT TRIGGERS & SPIRITUAL MEDICINE PODCAST:

Real talk. Let's address the elephant in the room to the growing "sickness" in our society, address root issues and provide sustainable solutions.

We hope by addressing the intersectionality and connect the dots like a web of many of society’s challenges, we can help others understand the trauma infection that impacts all areas of life – addiction, domestic violence, racism, homelessness, sexual abuse, chronic health issues, cancer, environmental issues, climate change and more.

In this NEW collaborative program, we hope by highlighting these infected areas and what they share in common, a new perspective of solutions, healing, and resolutions can be birthed.

Each episode addresses a certain trigger while offering the spiritual medicine with at least 3 tips or actionable steps our listeners can take and implement.
