In this transformative episode of Her Second Stage, Hilda Lunderstedt sits down with Elizabeth Kipp to explore the profound influence our ancestors have on our present-day lives, especially for women stepping into their second stage of life. Together, they discuss the difference between ancestral healing and ancestral clearing, how intergenerational trauma can manifest as chronic pain, and why so many women carry patterns of scarcity, competition, and disconnection that are not truly their own. Elizabeth shares her personal journey of healing from decades of chronic pain and the powerful role ancestral work played in her recovery. The conversation moves from understanding pain as a messenger to embracing the shift from duality into oneness. At the end of this episode, Elizabeth guides listeners through a powerful ancestral clearing experience designed to help release burdens, open space for healing, and reconnect with divine wholeness. This is not just a discussion—it’s an invitation to shed the past and step into your true empowered self.

In this deeply transformative episode of Her Second Stage, Hilda Lunderstedt sits down with Dr. Steven Young to explore masculine-feminine polarity, toxic masculinity, and how midlife women can reclaim healing, safety, and empowerment.
What if the masculine isn’t broken—it’s just been programmed to forget its purpose?
Together, Hilda and Dr. Young unpack how fear has rewired the nervous system of modern women, why true empowerment doesn’t come from “acting masculine,” and how to soften without losing strength.
You’ll discover how the suppressed masculine archetypes—King, Warrior, Lover, Magician— impact relationships, business, and inner balance, and why women often overfunction in their masculine to survive.
You’ll learn:
How society depolarizes men and women on purpose—and how to reverse it
Why nervous system regulation is the most powerful tool for feminine safety
The role of King and Warrior archetypes in leadership and love
How to recognize when you’re in your opposite polarity—and shift in real time
What “I got you” energy really means for healed masculine support
Why opting out of fear and choosing faith, play, and trust changes everything
This conversation redefines toxic masculinity, offers practical polarity tools, and invites you to step out of survival mode into sacred embodiment.

Welcome to Her Second Stage Sacred Sunday Meditations. Today’s transformative journey invites you to experience “Money as a Lover—A Healing and Empowering Relationship,” a sacred reframe of your relationship with money as something alive, intimate, and deeply loving. In a world that has taught women—especially in midlife—to fear, resent, or feel unworthy of wealth, this meditation is a radical act of reclamation. Together, we’ll breathe gently into the truth that money is not just a resource; it is a mirror. A mirror of how we trust. How we receive. How we love ourselves. With each breath, you’ll be guided to release old stories of scarcity, shame, and hustle culture, and instead awaken to a new energetic blueprint: one rooted in self-worth, sacred exchange, and mutual devotion. This is more than a money mindset shift. It’s an energetic intimacy practice. You will be invited to visualize money as a safe, generous, reliable presence—a lover who desires to co-create with you. You’ll explore how money feels in your body: not just in your mind or your wallet, but in your womb space, your palms, and your spine. Through this guided practice, you’ll begin to shift the fear and control around finances into a dance of trust, flow, and embodied respect. Perfect for women healing money wounds or ready to step into true feminine wealth embodiment, this meditation is especially powerful for entrepreneurs, healers, and midlife women reconnecting to their power. It’s time to stop chasing or fearing money—and instead allow it to feel safe, welcome, and loved in your life. This meditation is best experienced in a quiet, comfortable place with eyes closed, breath soft, and body relaxed. Whether you are just beginning your healing journey or are deepening your relationship with wealth, this is your reminder: you are a safe place for money. You are worthy of receiving. And when you partner with money from love—not fear—you open the door to freedom, beauty, and legacy. Come back to this practice whenever you feel disconnected from abundance, overwhelmed by scarcity, or simply ready to receive more with grace. Money loves to feel wanted, respected, and honored. Let this be the beginning of a beautiful, new devotion. This is Her Second Stage.

Welcome to Her Second Stage Sacred Sunday Meditations. This week, we invite you to experience a powerful journey inward with “Balancing the Sun and Moon Within,” a guided meditation for honoring the sacred masculine and feminine energies within you. As women in our second stage of life, we often carry the weight of doing, leading, and holding everyone else together. But within each of us lives a sacred balance—the sun of action and purpose and the moon of softness and flow. This meditation guides you to connect with both your inner masculine (structure, strength, clarity) and your inner feminine (intuition, receptivity, softness) in a deeply nourishing, restorative practice.
Set to gentle ambient music or nature sounds, you’ll begin by grounding into your body, then visualize and breathe life into your solar and lunar energies.
Through affirmation, breathwork, and vivid imagery, you’ll call forth your strength and softness in equal measure. Whether you're feeling burned out, disconnected, or simply seeking deeper alignment, this meditation is designed to bring your nervous system into peace and your heart into wholeness.
Feel the sun and moon unite in sacred harmony within your body. Let your inner masculine rise with confidence. Let your feminine spiral restore your magic. Together, they become your true power. By the end of this session, you’ll feel balanced, present, and resourced—held in the powerful truth that you are both the builder and the dreamer, the protector and the priestess, the fire and the water. This is the embodiment of feminine leadership. This is your homecoming. Perfect for meditation beginners and seasoned practitioners alike, this audio is best experienced with headphones, eyes closed, and full permission to drop in. Revisit this sacred union whenever life pulls you off balance. You are safe to soften. You are worthy of purpose. You are the balance of sun and moon. This is Her Second Stage.

Pleasure is power—and in today’s world, it’s still taboo. In this revolutionary episode of Her Second Stage, Hilda Lunderstedt sits down with Leola, founder of Talk Tantra to Me, to explore how women over 40 can access abundance, prosperity, and legacy by reconnecting to the core of their feminine power: their pleasure, intuition, and body wisdom. In midlife, many women hit a breaking point—burned out by masculine hustle, disconnected from their bodies, and unfulfilled by traditional markers of success. Leola reveals why the cultural obsession with “abundance” is often a trap, and how true prosperity comes not from having more—but from living in alignment with who you really are.
This episode unpacks the difference between abundance and prosperity, explains how attachment wounds and childhood programming shape your money story, and introduces a radical new path to wealth that starts in the body. You’ll learn how to treat money as a lover, shift out of scarcity patterns, and magnetize new levels of joy, vitality, and wealth by embracing your sensuality and power.
Hilda and Leola also dive deep into feminine archetypes—including the dark feminine—and how reclaiming parts of yourself that were once shamed or suppressed can unlock untapped reservoirs of purpose and creativity. Whether you’re successful but spiritually dry, or just waking up to your second stage of life, this conversation offers a powerful invitation to redefine what wealth and womanhood really mean.
You’ll learn:
If you're ready to move from burnout to bliss and from hustle to holistic prosperity, this one is for you.

Whether you’re facing divorce, starting over, or simply ready to stop fearing your finances, this conversation is your roadmap to rewriting your money story. You’ll learn:
