This month on the Feminine Frequency with Jennifer Mulak, we sit down with a dear friend Beth Carestia. Living in the Hudson Valley for almost two decades Beth has come to love our vibrant and diverse community. Local Tarot Reader, proud O+ Alum performer with The Goddess Party and soon to be the MC for the O+ Festival Comedy Show second year running.

Playing faithfully with the Rosendale Ukulele group for some time now has brought Beth joy beyond measure. Also being Beth’s fifth time contributing her voice to a Radio Kingston show, all have become sparkling personal highlights.

We chat with Beth about recently leaving her 9-5 and stepping into what’s next. How the yearning to do something more aligned with her passion and purpose started brewing long before the leap, how the loss of the structure has nudged her to look more deeply inward and importantly, how she values and cares for herself. We talk about how she’s approaching life with less structure, more joy and a lot of compassion for self. Having all been there in one way or the other, we all vibe about what it is to be in that liminal space, sometimes called the void or the underworld, between where you’ve been and where you’re going.

This past weekend’s New Moon is perfectly aligned with what we’re talking about and where we’re at.

Today’s show was engineered by Ian Seda from Radiokingston.org.

Diana Wassef is a Lebanese-Egyptian living in upstate New York with her lovely husband Patrick and two furry creatures Qi-Qi & Umpa. Her work centers on menstrual cycle awareness, natural fertility, and cyclical living as a path to deeper embodiment. She guides women toward reconnecting with their inner rhythm, and runs Cremona Studios — a sustainable fashion label rooted in the phases of the cycle and the stories woven within them.

We begin our conversation hearing about Diana’s background, her love for Lebabon and why she left. After suffering for most of her life with painful menstrual cycles, she at last finds a course that awakens her to a new relationship to her cycle and cyclical living. She shares about the 4 phase cycle and how this awareness transformed her life. After years of building this new relationship and some additional training, she now supports women who are seeking a deeper relationship with their cycle, whether it be because of the inherent beauty of it, or because of a specific need to balance things out or support a fertility journey. Diana shares honestly about her own fertility journey and the two pregnancy losses she’s experienced in this past year. We get a little personal together about these loses we’ve both experienced and how we hope having these conversations will help to normalize the discussion around pregnancy loss to better support those experiencing it.

We also dip into her clothing line, and how she went from a goth designer to one aligned with the seasons of the menstrual cycle. Yes, you heard “Bloody Romper.”

She offers regular “womb circles” in the area. Stay in tuned via her IG account for all the goodness.

This week on Spirituality and Politics with Marielena Ferrer, we are inspired by the Know Thyself Podcast and dive into what it means to know oneself. We converse about who are we, what enlightenment is in various traditions, how the Tarot provides that path in the Western tradition, our different levels of consciousness, judgement, shakti accumulation and bits and bobs more. We may need to carry some of it over to our next show if you want to join in. Email!

Robyn Moreno is an award-winning author, speaker, Curanderimso practitioner, meditation teacher. and host of the popular podcast: Get Rooted with Robyn Moreno. She has appeared on The Today Show, Wendy Williams, Extra, and CBS Mornings and has presented at the Sundance Film Festival, SXSW Interactive, and the Omega Institute, among others. A native Texan and certified yoga teacher and life coach, Robyn lives with her family in the Hudson Valley of NY.

Robyn’s work is rooted in her journey of overcoming burnout and rediscovering herself through the ancient healing practices of Curanderismo, a tradition passed down from her Mexican grandmother. Her powerful story and actionable wisdom are captured in her award-winning book, Get Rooted.

Today on the show Robyn shares some of her story of how she got to the point of burnout and what her healing journey has looked like. Similar to her book, our conversation weaves through her story and practical wisdom that she’s uncovered as a part of her journey, from the aha moment reading Woman Who Glows in the Dark to overcoming the uncomfortable stillness she’d avoided for decades. Robyn is honest, passionate, and generous with her knowledge.

She’s leading a retreat the weekend of August 22 – August 24, 2025 at the beautiful Omega Institute  guided by those teachings – Get Rooted: Mexica (Aztec) Practices to Find Peace, Purpose & Joy in Uncertain Times. This retreat is a calling to root back into nature, our ancestry, and the truth of who we really are before the world told us who we should be. Additional support is offered by three wonderful guest teachers Asha Frost, Daniela Miranda, and Sarah Anne Wilkinson who will offer their own ancestral wisdom.​

In the second hour of the show, Poet Gold returns to talk about her newly published book, Be The Poem, Living Beyond Our Fear, book signing and performance  this Friday, August 8th at CCE. A rare talent who grabs you by the heart and says “Recognize” – Poet, author, performer, songwriter, community “Artivist,” voice over artist, speaker and emcee, Bettina “Poet Gold” Wilkerson is pushing the boundaries of poetry and the spoken word. Living with a chronic illness since childhood, Poet Gold, or as she is affectionately known as, “Gold”, brings a soul-searching insight about the human existence, love, dreams, challenges, and triumph.

“Poet Gold is an inspiration, a beacon and a voice we need right now to bring
healing and to bring hope. Through poetry, prose and song, she feeds us, giving
us manna and well earned instructions on survival and how to live life fully,
courageously and with joy.”
—Pamela Sneed, Author of Funeral Diva, City Lights 2020
