009 | Navigating the Teen Years w/Rachelle Garcia Seliga of Innate Traditions

Welcome to the 9th episode of the Resonate Podcast!

We are excited to share this thought-provoking and important conversation about the journey of the “middle years” with our pre-teens and teens as a parent!

Our guest, Rachelle Garcia Seliga, is a mother, wife and midwife who is midwifing a cultural shift through her teachings.

She has a deep affinity for the postpartum period and has apprenticed with 17 home birth midwives in Mexico and the US but was surprised to find a void in the teen years transition.

Rachelle highlights how meeting our teens’ “full spectrum of their emotionality” often requires us as parents to really grow up and examine our capacity to be with the full range of human experience without judging ourselves.

These years are an opportunity to ‘step back in’ and re-do what we couldn’t support in our kids when they were younger. She asks, ‘What is innate within us?’

We access the blueprint and map by going within and sourcing personal authority. “This is how we create a living culture!”

Rachelle has been greatly influenced by her ‘spiritual adoption’ in her 20s. Her ‘Godparents ushered her through young adulthood, and this ceremonial path brought her to where she is now.

She now teaches through Innate Traditions, and her work centres around unifying principles, honouring innate wisdom primarily through maternal health and postpartum care. You can find her work here or follow her on Instagram @innatetraditions.

This conversation can help anchor you if you're in the throes of the teen years or offer you rich insight no matter where you are in the parenting journey! Enjoy!

With love, Eleanor and Emma
