Female Frequency Podcast (Jodie Nelson)

Welcome to the Female Frequency Podcast!  I am Jodie Nelson, curator, artist mentor, divine channel,  and host of Female Frequency.

I am here to bring you unbound forms of eco-feminism- reclaiming art, spirituality and feminine power to revive the earth. The world is unbalanced, the feminine is in a deficit. It is not only affecting women it’s also affecting the planet herself.

Those who have worked with me before know that I believe in the power of art. I am a bridge for the creative spirit, to the artists, trailblazers, outside-the-box thought leaders, magic makers.

I am launching Female Frequency, podcast with the Aloha Spirit, I have gone on extensive pilgrimages all over the world to sacred sites honoring the divine feminine, so I thrilled to I am excited to be called to Hawaii.

Each episode serves as a catalyst – offering wisdom along with practical steps to empower you to make a positive impact on the planet. Whether you’re an artist, empath or eco-warrior, there’s a story here to invite awe and help you embody the female frequency.

Angelica Trimble Yanu’s artworks embody an epic journey of healing through honoring her Oglala Lakota roots in profound ways. In this tender conversation, she shares how her printmaking and site-specific sculptures reclaim sacred relationships to the earth as they carry the creative lives of her ancestors through layers of time and space. Angelica’s art is collaborative – with family or dynamic landscape (and the Great Spirit that lives in all the mountains, hills and lakes). Her works reference sacred sites in South Dakota, and implicitly resist a history of displacement, silencing and erasure. Her intentional titles draw from the poems of her sister, a native poet, to continue a tradition of cultural transmission. She refines her palette to the four Lakota colors to harness the power of their cosmology, as invocation and homage. Weaving the rich visual and oral languages of Lakota knowledge systems in her art, Angelica restores the wisdom, stories and voices of her ancestors for this contemporary moment. Explore the way her creative practice forges paths for healing, forgiveness, and grace. Discover how, beneath it all, is a fierce life celebration.     

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. Until the late ‘70s, it was illegal for Lakota peoples to create, hold ceremonies, or speak their language.
   
   
2. Find out how the sacred directions are included in her color palette. She was taught that the ancestors are drawn to the color red, often used in regalia and beadwork for this purpose. Angelica also uses red in her art as a powerful call to them. 
   
   
3. The star tattooed on her throat, signifying the Lakota peoples, the Star Nation, is a reminder of “where we came from,” and to continue learning the language and speaking from a place of truth.     
   
   
4. The historical, contemporary and futurist converged when Angelica had to learn how to use AI tools to scale her work to fit the expansive space of the flagship Google store.

I have a song in my heart in this solo episode, and it goes like this: “I’ve got my mind on my money, and money on my mind.” The younger generation, armed with books, the internet, and social media, sees more women like them succeeding because women are now openly discussing financial matters in these mediums and with each other. This shift is crucial, yet old, sticky patterns linger—especially those around money. These patterns hold us back, muting us and casting shadows on our potential.

I'm reminded that it’s a wild world out there. With women's history suppressed, it hit me like lightning: Women making money is challenging the status quo.

Struggles for financial independence are closely linked to broader issues of exploitation and inequality. Just as the earth has been exploited for profit, women have been undervalued in economic systems. By reclaiming financial power, we challenge patriarchal norms and pave the way for a more just and sustainable future.

Think of trailblazers like Sara Blakely, the inventor of Spanx, and Serena Williams, a tennis legend and savvy investor challenging norms. They speak out, revealing women's struggles. Sara’s recent REEL asked, "Do you know when women in the U.S. could get a business loan without a male co-signer?" The answer—1988—highlighted how women's economic empowerment disrupts power structures. It also raises questions about how women artists started their own businesses. Then there are Jerry Gogosian’s REELS, warning artists to avoid art school unless they have endless money, as it’s seen as a waste.

As we navigate these complexities, we can rewrite the narrative, creating a world where women's economic contributions are celebrated and valued. It's not just about making money—it’s also about reclaiming our voices, our agency, and our place in shaping a more equitable society.

Join me on this journey of discovery and empowerment. Together, let's blaze a path towards a future where every woman can thrive economically, creatively, and spiritually.

Highlights You Will Learn:

• Women making money is challenging the status quo. Sticky feelings about money are systemic.
• As recently as 1988, women needed a male co-signer for business loans—just 36 years ago!
• Pro-tips on how to sell your artwork.

What if the mountains, rivers and plants are, in fact, our living ancestors? What if the land and forests are relatives, and not “resources” to extract and exploit? How would that knowledge inform the way we act moving forward? 

Get ready to explore your inner forests as we dive deep with Osprey Orielle Lake—international activist, changemaker, and author of The Story in Our Bones: How Worldviews and Climate Justice Can Remake a World in Crisis. A game changer in the canon of ecofeminism, Osprey draws on decades of her experience as founder and director of the Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network (WECAN) to bring forth the embodied solutions and stories we need to hear now more than ever. Osprey’s work teases out the root causes of our modern disease—the harmful dominant worldviews of patriarchy, white supremacy, human dominion over nature, and separation from a living Earth. She maps possible paths forward by retracing our origin stories back to ancient, life-sustaining principles. The Story in Our Bones looks to the marrow of things. Literally, we are made of stardust. We evolved from our elemental, plant, and animal ancestors as part and particle of one miraculous lifesystem. Osprey reminds us that within our bones “is a place of world-making, of creativity,” regenerative energy, and healing forces. From the atomic to the cellular views, Osprey takes us into more expansive knowledge systems that restore our kinship to this animate cosmology. How can remembering our earth lineage, the awe within our bodies, influence our policies, social structures and daily choices? Learn how we can be a life-enhancing, rather than life-destroying, species by returning to our origins and lifting women’s voices. Join us in summoning a new paradigm for being in the Anthropocene and beyond. 

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode:   

1. How both Osprey and I have been influenced by female iconography: sculptures that have led us to be curious and ask more questions about sacred connections. Osprey recounts that what started it all for her was a black clay statue of a goddess holding a stalk of corn in one hand, and the moon in the other. The circular nature between women, earth, protection, and planting began to emerge for her at the age of 8.
   
   
2. Systemic gender inequality means that women are impacted “first and worst” by environmental degradation, but women are also proving to be the keystone to the solutions we need.
   
   
3. In the Itombwe Rainforest of the Democratic Republic of Congo, a community of women earth defenders have created nurseries and reforested swaths of devastated lands with hundreds of thousands of trees – all by hand, without any technical equipment, in the course of 8 years. 
   
   
4. 80 percent of the biodiversity left on earth is in the lands and hands of indigenous peoples who are stewarding them.

Rev. Frances Fayden is in the house, and we’re blowing the roof off patriarchal limitations to divine connection! As an interfaith minister, spiritual counselor and intuitive mentor, her greatest joy is enabling people to have sacred experiences of themselves and direct experiences with god – whether god appears as Mother Mary, Isis or Quan Yin. Frances champions connecting with the divine feminine through the deepest wisdom of our bodies and the earth. She shares her own journey of spiritual awareness, heartbreak, and reawakening. From the age of 7, she knew she wanted to be a priest but was told: girls cannot. Though she could read chakras and help people unblock emotions caught in the whirlpools of their energy centers. Though spirits talked to her. Years later, she joined an ashram only to be told: you do not fit. Now the Magnify Your Miracle podcast host helps countless women walk their inner path of healing, trusting in themselves, and manifesting their dreams in the world. Learn how the “Threefold Soul” of artist-mystic-healer (or creativity, ritual, and healing) can bridge heaven and earth. Explore the field of unconditional love within the female frequency. Plus! Rev Frances ends our conversation with an invitation to go within. Be guided in a special meditation to open your heart chakra and start feeling safe in yourself.

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode: 

1. I met Rev. Frances Fayden for the first time in Paris.
2. Frances first practiced the healing arts as a massage therapist/bodyworker when she learned that chakras talked to her. All the information we could ever want to learn about ourselves resides within our bodies.
3. Creativity, ritual and healing all bring the unseen into the seen world, and move the invisible to the visible.
4. “The occult” (meaning magic and mysticism) has been demonized for too long. “We’ve been conditioned to not trust ourselves, the earth, our bodies, anything feminine and that’s why we’re in this pickle we’re in on this planet. We need to reclaim the words, the practices, the energy to vibe with the earth.”

“You gotta find the river. You gotta jump in.” Liz Childs Kelly, bristling with aliveness, rewilds us to discover the divine feminine inside us and all around us. The researcher and educator, host of Home To Her podcast and award-winning author of Home to Her: Walking the Transformative Path of the Sacred Feminine shares her own feral journey.

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode:

2. Learning the language of the body requires us to quiet the mind to listen to the indwelling presence of the divine feminine god within us.

In this special episode, we bask in the glow of the full moon, aligning ourselves with its energy to become the main character in our own story. Just as the moon reflects the world around us, it also mirrors our inner selves, helping us tap into our deepest creative sources.

We also pay tribute to pioneering women like Hilma af Klint and Nancy Holt, whose works challenge conventional notions of art and spirituality. Their legacies inspire us to blend the realms of fine art, design, and spirituality, erasing boundaries and nurturing a world where art truly exists for everyone.

Every episode brings fresh inspiration, and today’s conversation is no different. I’m thrilled to be joined by Kait Rhoads, an artist who dreams big. Her intricate glass sculptures, limited-edition jewelry, and public artworks all reflect her relationship with the ocean. Today, we dive into everything—from subjugation and underwater ecosystems to art espionage! 

In this conversation, we explore the intricate ties between her artmaking, ecology, and community because, as Kait says, “My method of construction mirrors how my life has formed me, with individual elements woven together to create a strong whole.”

Kait Rhoads’ story is one of transformation, bold creativity, and unapologetic innovation. From growing up on a boat to becoming a Fulbright scholar in Venice, Italy, she immersed herself in centuries-old glassmaking traditions steeped in patriarchal legacies. While honoring these techniques, she envisioned something entirely new. This fusion of respect and reinvention led her to develop her signature Hollow Murrine method, creating breathtaking sculptures collected by museums worldwide, including the Pacific Seas Aquarium, Seattle Art Museum, Corning Museum of Glass, Museum of Northwest Art, Shanghai Museum of Glass, Tacoma Museum of Art, and the Toyama Institute of Glass Museum in Japan, among others.

Highlights you will love:

• How important grants have allowed Kait to involve community members in her public art commissions.
• The creative use of light in her Hollow Murrine method, which has made her sculptures so distinctive.
• Kait’s philosophy of art as a reflection of interconnectedness, where every element contributes to the whole.

What happened to our goddesses and grandmothers? Meet Max Dashu, founder of Suppressed History Archives, who since 1970 has been compiling one of the most comprehensive cross-cultural collections of documentation on female heritage throughout human history. Her research digs into archeological records, petroglyphs, paintings, iconography, orature, and other visual testimonies to women as culture makers and agents for the earth. Listen as we unpack her newest work, Women in Greek Mythography: Pithias, Melissae and Titanides, and learn about oracular women and priestess traditions that preceded the Olympian pantheon. Max unearths older, nature-based matriarchal societies across the world that existed before ideas shaped by  colonialism and statehood dominated the cultural imagination. We explore ancient manifestations of snake women, bird women, bee women – not as portends of trickery, but as portals of truths and divine forces of nature. She traces the way sexual politics and patriarchal representations limited what female forms and their stories could be: as sacral, venerated, lifegiving potency. Explore how her work prevents the erasure of women and their contributions. Join us to reroot, recontextualize and restore women’s legacy from the misdemeanors of history. 

4 things you will learn in this episode:

1. We traverse the Paleolithic to Roman and Classical periodsand find compelling visual evidence of women’s contributions throughout time. 

2. The Melissae women were connected to divine forces of nature  through the bees.   

3. How Venus Impudique got its name and how the iconic Venus of Willendorf represents so much more than just fertility.

4.  How the female form was sculpted in the paleolithic period versus the defensive positioning depicted through the renaissance. 

See her articles, webcasts, and open-access videos to go deeper. 

Today, I’m so excited to share this conversation with a true creative force—Mary White. Mary is not just a sculptor and educator; she’s a visionary leader who uplifts the voices of women in environmental art and education, empowering them to make waves and create meaningful change. I’ll leave her website information in the notes—it’s truly inspirational.

I am most intrigued by Mary as an artmaker. To me, Mary works collaboratively, but she never negotiates her values, holding steadfast to what matters most in every project she undertakes. She creates art that integrates natural sciences, environmental perception, arts education, and peacemaking, all through the lens of formed friendships. She seems to know everyone, and now I am pleased to introduce you to this amazing ecofeminist.

Mary is the daughter of a water resources geographer, and her early travels sparked a passion for the creative process, nature, and caring for the earth’s creatures and natural resources. As a scholar, she won a Fulbright to Ireland, where she produced a symposium with her cohorts, focusing on craft as a vehicle for social justice.

As a teacher, she taught at the Corning Museum of Glass and California College of the Arts, spent 20 years teaching at San Jose State University, and started the glass program at The Crucible in Oakland, California. She is currently co-chair of Women Eco Artists Dialog (WEAD).

Tune in to this conversation, where we catch up with Mary during her short stay in Colorado with family, and she takes us behind the scenes of her 18-foot public art installation titled Flood Marker, along with a few other works from her career!

Highlights you’ll love:

• How the glass was made for an 18 foot sculpture placed outdoors titled Flood Marker.
• Why is looking for new leadership from women and eco arts so important?

In this episode, we emphasize the importance of tuning into the vibe and reclaiming these qualities in a patriarchal world.

“Artists have a unique opportunity to challenge the viewer,” reflects American artist April Surgent. This adventurous, gutsy woman is a record keeper of time; her art offers viewers a glimpse into the fragility of our ecosystems through glass, a material that holds, refracts, and reflects light. As urbanization distances us from the environments we depend on, April's cameo glass engravings call us to attention—a moment to "Stop. Look. See. Listen. Smell. Touch. Breathe. Think. Learn."

In this conversation, we explore her career through life-changing experiences, from Pilchuck Glass School to her ongoing collaboration with the NOAA Hawaiian Monk Seal Research Program, where she confronted marine debris and witnessed the immediate effects of climate change, to a commission for Iowa State University.

April approaches artmaking as a comment on the status quo and a mirror reflecting our world. Her contemporary approach to the ancient art of cameo glass engraving expands the medium’s boundaries, both in scale and subject. Through an inward, reflective process, she moves through mark-making, including pinhole photography, to capture the delicate interplay between light and shadow, ultimately engraving her composition onto sheets of glass.

We dive into the artmaking and the public response evoked by In Our Absence. There’s a profound mystery to her work—moody, and some might even describe it as haunting, in a way that feels undeniably truthful. 

Listen as she shares her future projects: tuning into her intuition and continuing to follow her heart, undoubtedly reflecting her relationship with the planet and following the light.

When I asked ChatGPT what Madeleine Albright and Frida Kahlo have in common, it answered: "Both mastered the art of bold statements: Madeleine with her brooches, and Frida with her eyebrows!" I was appalled by this reductionist view. Albright, a human rights activist, broke glass ceilings with her work in politics and advocating for women's rights. Frida Kahlo is a trailblazing feminist whose art addresses issues of identity, postcolonialism, gender, and class. In reality, both women mastered art as political discourse.

In today’s episode of Female Frequency, we dive into the inspiring world of women who have used art to shape history and politics. We will explore how art influences and harnesses meaningful connections, recognizing its power to engage in political discourse, initiate big conversations, and mirror societal events. Madeleine and Frida both showed us that art is a comment on the status quo.

Join me as I profile Madeleine Albright, a collector, and a U.S. diplomat known for her strategic use of pins as a communication tool. Her exhibit "Read My Pins: The Madeleine Albright Collection" features over 200 pins, each with a story and message that reflects her wit, humor, and communication style. Learn how Albright’s pins served as powerful tools for cultural diplomacy and political discourse.

I’ll discuss Frida Kahlo, whose paintings are a profound exploration of personal and political struggles. Kahlo’s art is a bold statement against patriarchal norms, representing female autonomy and resilience. Her self-portraits and symbolic use of color provided commentary on identity and postcolonialism, breaking taboos and advocating for women's rights.

Additionally, I share pro tips on collecting art, highlighting three motivations for art acquisition and how artists can connect with potential collectors. Discover how colors, emotional connections, and personal values drive art collectors and how understanding these motivations can help artists foster lasting relationships with an audience.

4 Highlights from this episode:

1. Brooches & pins have been part of political discourse through history even in the era of the suffragettes.
2. The significance of the "Read My Pins" exhibit and the stories behind Albright’s pin collection, particularly the famous serpent pin.
3. Frida Kahlo’s use of art as a means of political discourse, addressing issues of postcolonialism, identity, gender, and class.
4. Learn directly from Kahlo’s journals what colors meant to here and Kahlo’s contributions to feminist art.

Welcome to the premier episode of Female Frequency Podcast! 

Artist Burcu Koleli insists on joy in a world of overwhelming climate grief. This passionate intersectional, ecofeminist activist celebrates women in all their fearless forms and nature in her biodiversity. Listen as Burcu talks of “infinite ways of being included in the climate movement” and tackling pressing issues.

3 things you will learn in this episode:

1. How she implements “the domino effect” and how it all begins from within.

Showing up as the main character in my life is the best choice I’ve ever made! Main character energy is about stepping into my power, owning my story, and embracing every aspect of who I am with unapologetic authenticity. It's about reclaiming my narrative, rewriting the script, and living each moment with intention and purpose. It's a journey of self-discovery, self-love, and self-expression—a journey that connects me with the natural world, my heart, and my creativity. It empowers me to shine brightly and live my truth, no matter the challenges or obstacles along the way.

In this week’s Female Frequency episode, I share my unique method of stepping into main character energy while staying grounded, spiritual, and creative. Through the lens of eco-feminism, I explore how reclaiming this energy is not just about personal empowerment but also about balancing and restoring our world.

 Highlights you will learn:

1. Understanding main character energy through a feminist perspective.
   
   
2. Recognizing and challenging patriarchal conditioning in our lives.
   
   
3. How to alchemize negative conditioning of the natural world, particularly in how it relates to polarizing: The diminutive phrase "Fragile as a Flower" implies weakness or inferiority, especially in reference to femininity. But what if we reframed that notion to "Fearless as a Flower”?
   
   
4. Why ask yourself: “How can I be more creative?”
   
   
5. What is a  Life Mapping exercise and how The Full Petal Project can help guide you with female frequency prompts to revisit your life events through the eco-feminist lens.

Experience the transformative power of reclaiming your main character energy and join me for the Full Petal Project workshop on May 23, 2024. Seats are limited. Reserve your spot on pressreign.com now!

How is your heart today? YogaTara, founder & director of the Isha Institute, tends deeply to the expansion of our incandescent hearts. In 1996, she turned from the hard science branch of biochemistry towards whole-body, whole-life sciences of yoga, ayurveda and somatic experience. Join us on this journey: from our first meeting in the rapids of the Marsyangdi River in Nepal, to her ongoing path of helping people access their capacity for healing and joy. She demystifies yoga: it’s not about postures or breathing, or even enlightenment, but the harmony of the head, the heart, the hands. Gain insight into what she calls a “beautiful science of radical acceptance” and awareness as we discuss intuition versus impulse. Explore ways to access other forms of intelligence through female frequencies of slowness, softness and surrender – which is not without its own forms of daring and courage. Learn how Shakti, or manifestations of heart-centered, divine feminine energy in the world, can rebalance the masculine “top-heavy” bias towards intellect to help us find our true life flow rather than just hurtle ahead. 

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode

1. Heart intelligence, or pure awareness, will lead us on the pilgrimages that reveal our real life paths, usually off the beaten or certain tracks. But the heart never leads us astray.

2. Joy, and our immense capacity for joy, is the true outcome of yogic practice that aligns our various dimensions into a connected life ecosystem.
   
   

3. If Shiva is the masculine force of pure consciousness, then Shakti manifests as the dynamic, divine feminine energy that gives earthly forms to it.  

4. How to grow the feminine powers of intuition and knowing through softness, heart listening, and openness.

In this illuminating conversation, eco fiction author Monica McDowell subverts archaic notions of the profound and the profane. Her award-winning novel, Girl With a Gift, is a riveting ecofeminist saga that weaves connections between women and spirituality in a moment of cultural and climate crisis. Whereas traditional patriarchal theology tends to honor the spirit and debase the  body as “dirty,”, Monica’s modern work restores the sacred, divine feminine power to the corporeal and the earth. Gain insight into the ecological drive behind her liberation theology: how the honoring of women is the honoring of the earth. Dive into Monica's role as a whistleblower on sexual misconduct in her own church, and how that fueled her commitment to truthtelling as forms of dignity, healing and courage. Learn about a curious creative process that involves lucid dreaming, meditation, breathwork, and “turtle steps.” See how a timely coming-of-age story can help us realize the everyday magic within ourselves to heal our planet. 

4 things you will learn in this episode:

1. Learning to not judge yourself can be a great lesson. Instead, observe your own talents.

2. Obstacles come up during the creative process. She recognized certain signs and resistance in her body to ultimately craft her specific writing style – which sometimes meant just 5 minutes a day!

3. Monica’s theology is based in ecology and the need to restore the feminine 

4. Telling the truth is healing: Monica shares her whistleblowing experience.

In this soul-expanding solo episode, we journey beyond the surface of color, exploring how it goes far beyond what we see. Color is a powerful energetic force that influences our emotions, spirit, and entire experience of life.

I share my personal journey of working with some of the most iconic artists in the world, including Judy Chicago at SFMOMA and Dale Chihuly, and how my deep passion for color has shaped my path as an artist’s assistant.

But here’s the real secret: color isn’t just about painting on a canvas or sculpture—it’s about creating shifts in consciousness. Color is a frequency we feel deeply, a vibration that communicates without words and impacts us on a primal level.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Color as a Frequency: How color is actually a frequency of light that affects our mood, energy, and spiritual vibration. Yellow to lift you up, blue to bring you peace—color isn’t just visual, it’s transformational.
• Color's Legacy in Art: From the Impressionists to neon sculptures, discover how artists throughout history have used color to capture light, time, and emotion—creating profound emotional experiences for viewers.
• Color as a Language: Color speaks to the deepest parts of our soul, expressing what words cannot. Learn how to tap into this powerful language to transform not only your art but your entire perception of the world around you.

If you’re ready to experience color in a whole new way, beyond the visual, and tap into its emotional and spiritual power, then this episode is your guide to a more vibrant, awakened life!

From goddess to harlot — Dr. Joanna Kujawa ballbusts the patriarchal myths that strip women of their sexuality, and ultimately, their spiritual power. In her scintillating scholarship, The Other Goddess: Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge, the spiritual detective unravels ancient esoteric traditions honoring connections between female sexuality and divine power — and how they were pushed to the shadows. For Joanna, religious portrayals of women were too idealized, desexualized (or debased), and incomplete; this spurred two decades of research to recover a long lineage of priestesses who invoke the primordial alchemy of eros. Learn how “bliss consciousness” forms a path to cosmic consciousness, our greatest creative prowess. Discover what it means to live at your “highest octave” and operate from your highest self. Go beyond archetypes. Dr. Kujawa insists: honor yourself, you are the other goddess, and embrace transformative power. 

4 Things you’ll learn in this episode:

1. There is no scriptural evidence that Mary Magdalene was a prostitute. Gnostic gospels do reveal Mary Magdalene to not only be Jesus’ most advanced disciple, but also his erotic partner.        
   
   

2.  Sexuality is not sin. Sin is a consequence of choices based on acting from our lowest self – jealousy, fear, insecurity… 

3. Creative paths require creative practice. Make yourself available. Get up, show up, invoke the powers, and plunge in. 
   
   

4. Claim your path, whatever that may be. Claim yourself.

Join us as we welcome Robin Lasser, a natural-born storyteller and ecofeminist who has carved a unique path throughout her art-making career. In this episode, we traverse her journey, from her latest exhibit, Climate’s Shipwreck Ballad, currently on view at the Plattsburgh State Art Museum, to her earliest creations. Tune in to discover how the spiritual philosophy of As Above, So Below shows up repeatedly in her oeuvre.

Robin is not an artist who works alone; she collaborates with artists, writers, students, public agencies, community organizations, and international coalitions to produce public art and promote dialogue. Robin’s work serves as a form of activism, addressing climate justice while commenting on public health, environmental issues, and social equity, helping to rewrite history with honesty. Her art-making approach often integrates layers of textures, colors, elements of fire and water, humor, and research, showcasing the power of art as a vital communication tool.

Her recent exhibit, Climate’s Shipwreck Ballad, provides insights into Lake Champlain, exploring migration lines, 300 species of birds, 300 shipwrecks beneath its surface, and how the waters' currents served as a gateway to freedom. In this conversation, Robin shares her creative process, highlighting how she combines layers of photographs and videos to create site-specific installations and public art that engage with themes of placemaking. Her Dress Tent Series adds a layer of humor and wit, as she explains, “Through the humor of an oversized dress, we reference specific body and land topics pertaining to the place and culture where they are located. By exploring these two symbols of shelter, we delve into themes of protection versus oppression, expression versus exploitation, sexy versus matronly, and more.”

While Robin is constantly creating, she is also a professor of Art at San José State University. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, including venues such as the San Francisco Asian Art Museum, San José Museum of Art, National Gallery of Modern Art in Bangalore, India, the Museum of Goa, Exploratorium Observation Gallery in San Francisco, Kohler Museum of Art, The Metenkov Museum of Photography in Yekaterinburg, Russia, the Recoleta Cultural Center in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and the Caixa Cultural Center in Rio de Janeiro. She also participates in international biennials, including ZERO1: Global Art on the Edge in San José, California, Nuit Blanche in Toronto, Canada, and the Pingyao International Photography Festival in Pingyao, China.

Recently I’ve been reciting my favorite quote at events and the response has been amazing. People are asking where I found it and what was going on in my life that made it land as profound as it did. In my latest podcast episode, I dive into the powerful and soul-nourishing teachings of Wisdom Rising: Journey Into the Mandala of the Empowered Feminine by Lama Tsultrim Allione. It’s all about reclaiming our dynamic, multifaceted nature that patriarchy has tried to suppress for far too long. You are not here to choose between being sweet or spicy, strong or weak, the Madonna or the whore. You are ALL of these things and more!

If we keep looking at ourselves through a patriarchal lens, it won’t serve a balanced creative life. I share my personal journey—how, after a breakup, this book found me at the perfect time and reminded me that the feminine isn’t linear. The patriarchy thrives on binaries, but the feminine? She’s wild, circular, embracing the wholeness of who we are. If you’ve ever felt constrained by societal expectations, guilt, or limiting beliefs, this episode is for you.

I also share how my ecofeminist approach is rooted in ancient traditions. While living in Nepal in my 20s—studying sacred feminine sites, mandalas, and art—taught me how to connect with the divine feminine within. We explore how the teachings of the five wisdom dakinis can help us alchemize our emotions and transform them into wisdom, especially anger. Yes, even your anger is a sacred teacher, guiding you toward your truth.

This episode is packed with actionable steps on how to lean into discomfort, trust your intuition, and honor your life’s natural cycles—just like the seasons. The more centered and grounded you are, the clearer you’ll be when life’s turbulence hits.
