Digging For Mother’s Bones
In this February episode of Triggers in Spiritual Medicine, Laura is joined by mystic, author, and embodied truth teller Coco Oya for a conversation that moves far beyond surface level spirituality and into the bones of real healing.
Together, Laura and Coco Oya explore what happens when women’s circles stop bypassing discomfort and begin addressing the deeper ancestral, racial, maternal, and embodied wounds that live in the body. Drawing from Coco Oya’s powerful book Digging for Mother’s Bones, the conversation invites listeners to reconnect with the wisdom of the body, the womb, and the feminine creative force that has been suppressed, misunderstood, or diluted into “love and light” spirituality.
Coco Oya shares her journey from being a self described non feeler to fully embodying feminine power after a near death experience, and how that initiation revealed the collective mother wound that so many carry, often unconsciously. Laura and Coco Oya speak candidly about what it means to move from a mindset of being broken or needing to be fixed into remembering our inherent wholeness.
This episode weaves together embodiment, ancestral healing, racial truth telling, and the necessity of moving beyond band aid approaches to healing. They reflect on the discomfort that arises when spiritual spaces avoid hard conversations, and why true sisterhood requires honesty, accountability, and a willingness to feel what lives in the body rather than label or bypass it.
They also explore the balance between feminine and masculine energies, with women as alchemizers of energy and men as guardians of land and life, and how both are needed to restore harmony. The conversation touches on current global turbulence, bodily symptoms during times of rapid energetic change, and why trusting the body’s intelligence is essential as humanity moves through this pivotal threshold.
As always, this episode offers reflection, truth, and practical spiritual medicine, inviting listeners to turn triggers into transformation and remember the wisdom they already carry.
