Midlife Musings on Motherhood with Centehua Sage

I’m so excited to be kicking off season two of Thresholders with someone I have admired from afar for years, Centehua Sage.

Centehua is a mother, traditional cook, dancer and embodiment guide.  Born and raised in Mexico City, to artist parents. She currently resides in Northern California near the Yuba river. She shares her musings on Substack and offers a yearly embodiment course on her website at centehuasage.com.

In this episode Centehua and I explore:

- raising a toddler in the midlife years

- the individualism of the wild woman phase that makes way for  cronehood

- Navigating the weirdness of social media

- Schooling versus Unschooling: where do we take a stand and where to we compromise

- Listening to our kids about their needs, and meeting them in the years of letting go

- The importance of peers and outdoor experiences for kids in the pre-school years and beyond

- Curating a child’s education based on their actual needs (rather than our own ideals)

- the letting go years: when to guide and when to surrender

- Centehua’s nutrition journey from veganism, to raw foodie to eating animals from the land (including a hog named Lacey she tended in life and witnessed in harvest)

- Nourishing children

- Not restricting “the cookie”

- The healing power of SOUP!

- Embodying our gift and our life through dance

- And so much more!
