About the show

What happens when you stop trying to fit neatly into this world? When you unbecome everything you were told to be? When you breathe nuance into a world obsessed with the binary? When you stop chasing linear success and remember the power of the cyclical, the seasonal—the way we were always meant to be? This is REWILD + FREE. Not a blueprint. But an invitation. To unmask. To unravel. To break free—not just from survival, but from the deep conditioning that keeps us disconnected. From each other. From our bodies. From the earth. In all facets of life—motherhood, womanhood, conscious business, spirituality. These are the conversations social media can’t hold space for. The ones that don’t fit into bite-sized posts or neat little soundbites. The messy, layered, deeply human ones. A mix of raw personal musings and soul-stirring interviews with those willing to go beyond the surface. I’m Nicole Pasveer—mother, truth-seeker, activator. Someone who spent years untangling herself from stories that were never hers to hold. I’ve done the people-pleasing, the perfectionism, the fitting into boxes too small for me. I know what it feels like to wake up and realize—this isn’t who I am. So here we are. Stirring good kinda trouble. Having the conversations that matter—healing, liberation, decolonization, reimagining how we live, work, and lead. Not with easy answers, but with big, bold, sometimes impossible-to-answer questions. Where nuance, reclamation, and reimagination collide Let’s rewild and remember. Together. Connect with Nicole on IG (@nicolepasveer)

MUSINGS + MAGICK: Late Diagnosed Neurodivergence, Big Decisions & New Directions WITH LAUREN & NICOLE

After nearly a year away from the microphone, we're back with a life update that (in true Lauren & Nicole style) manages to cover ADHD diagnoses, fractured bones, nursing careers, master's degrees, ear piercings, birth work, and the strange way life only makes sense when you look backwards.In this conversation, we reflect on the seasons that have shaped us over the past year. Lauren shares what has shifted since receiving her ADHD diagnosis, including the grief, relief, self-compassion, and unexpected freedom that came with finally understanding how her brain works. Nicole reflects on returning to nursing, beginning a Master's in Counselling Psychology, and navigating the tension between unmet expectations and trusting that no experience is ever truly wasted.We also explore the realities of parenting neurodivergent children, making difficult medical decisions, advocating for our kids, and learning to loosen our grip on identities that no longer fit. Along the way, we share updates on the work we're creating together, including our upcoming prenatal education offering, Weaving Birth, and the deeper questions we're asking about birth, matrescence, self-worth, and what it means to prepare for transformation.This episode is a reminder that growth rarely happens in a straight line. Sometimes the thing that looks like a detour becomes the path. Sometimes a diagnosis creates freedom. Sometimes the season you're resisting is quietly preparing you for what's next...Connect with Nicole:Instagram: @nicolepasveerPodcast: REWILD + FREE..Connect with Lauren:Instagram: @nestandnourishPodcast: The Well-Nourished Mother..If this conversation resonated with you, we'd love it if you'd share it with a friend, leave a review, or send us a message. We always love hearing what lands.

Bamboozled by My Own Anxiety: The Tenderness of Stepping into a New Identity

In this little riff, I attempt to unpack what it really means to “step into a new identity”... beyond the pinterest quotes and pop spiritual manifestation fluff.From the bamboozlement of future tripping, realizing how much mental energy goes into trying to get it right or plan for the future, to the tenderness of trusting yourself when the path is unknown — we’re pulling on threads of self-trust, perfectionism, and the nervous system’s craving for safety in this one!Expect musings on:Why “I’m working on it” language keeps you STUCK in limbo landThe MYTH of needing clarity before taking actionWhat straddling two identities actually feels likeThe quiet courage of trusting the breadcrumbs that energize and inspireIf you’re navigating your own identity shift (in motherhood, business, or life - hello late identified neurodivergence LOL) , let's connect!! As always, I'd love to hear what stirs or lands for you in this conversation. Send me an unscripted voice note on IG (@nicolepasveer) and let me know!

Rewilding Your Nervous System (92)

What if your nervous system isn’t something to fix or “capacity build”?What if the most radical practice isn’t doing more, but simply noticing?And what if the mainstream understanding of the nervous system is just whitewashed wellness hacks — colonized language for ancient ancestral wisdom?In this episode, I riff on those questions and share:🌿 The hidden ways our nervous systems keep us tangled in hustle, chaos, and productivity loops🌿 How to meet those patterns neutrally as data instead of flaws🌿 Why saying “how interesting” and “this belongs” can shift everything🌿 The truth that our bodies already know this work, long before science caught upThis isn’t about mindset tricks, productivity hacks, or another self-improvement project. It’s about rewilding, remembering, and coming back into relationship with your innate wisdom.Big love + exhale..Links✨ Learn more + join EXHALE✨ Get almost weekly Soul Snacks in your inbox

Lazy Marketing + Dissolving Shame: Escaping the "If-Then" Trap (IG LIVE Sept 29/25)

I went live this week on Instagram planning to “market” my new group… and instead rambled about lazy launches, shame spirals, motherhood, if-then thinking, and why I’m DONE overcomplicating every f*ckin thinggggg! This episode is extra messy and unscripted, but maybe that’s the medicine? I touch on the following:Why the “if you just do this, then you’ll get that” narrative is so sneaky (and quite frankly, pure bullsh*t)How shame spirals keep us stuck in freeze (and what naming them does)My reframe on marketing and why I’m calling this launch “lazy”The truth about motherhood, identity, and seasons where everything feels heavyWhat I’m experimenting with instead of forcing strategyAt the end, I share about Exhale — my 6-week support group + practice lab for heavy-hearted humans, mothers, creatives + visionaries carrying a dream of a different world… while desiring space, nuance, and nervous system nourishment to keep holding it.Exhale is a space where we slow down, name our real desires, and anchor into rhythms that actually let you keep going.👉 We start Oct 9.

MUSINGS + MAGICK: ADHD Diagnosis Dilemmas and New Seasons of Motherhood (SEPTEMBER FULL MOON WITH LAUREN AND NICOLE)

Under September’s full moon, we sit in the messy middle of it all—thresholds, tenderness, and the very human urge to know what’s on the other side. In this episode, Lauren shares the mixed cocktail of grief and excitement as her daughter starts preschool and a whole new chapter of life and motherhood (and schedule) opens up. Nicole reflects on the one-year mark of her child’s autism diagnosis and what softened in their family because of language, support, and self-compassion. We also name the messy, nuanced terrain of exploring neurodivergence in adulthood as Lauren moves toward a formal ADHD assessment—the freedom, the grief, and the relief of finally having words for what’s been true all along. This episode is a love letter to liminality and a reminder that rhythm beats routine, devotion beats perfection, and identity is allowed to be in flux. If you’re carrying a lot, if you’re crossing a portal you can’t yet see through, or if you just need permission to cry, rest, and still call it forward motion—this one’s for you.You’ll hear us talk about:Thresholds and rites of passage for mothers and familiesWhy language (matrescence, autism, ADHD) can create compassion, not boxesTime freedom, ambition, and not overloading a new seasonRhythm over routine, devotion over perfectionFriendship, grief, and letting the full spectrum be welcomeThanks so much for hanging out with us, if you enjoy these episodes please share them with a friend, leave a review wherever you’re listening from, and come on over to instagram to continue the conversation.Connect with Nicole on IG (@nicolepasveer) Connect with Lauren on IG (@nestandnourish) ..P.S.

The Trees Were Laughing at Me: Lessons from the Forest About Consistency as a Colonized Fantasy (89)

Today’s quickie episode is basically me getting roasted by the trees on my afternoon walk. The forest had a lot to say about us “silly humans” and our obsession with consistency, predictability, and control, and let’s just say, the trees aren’t wrong. It’s colonized bullsh*t. And honestly? We deserve to be laughed at, because we’re over here over-complicating and over-efforting all damn day long.This one is equal parts truth bomb, reflection, and reminder that comparison and linear growth are manmade illusions. Nature’s calling us back to cyclical wisdom... come listen in...As always, I'd love to hear what stirs or lands for you in this conversation.

Creating Anyway: Even When You're Allergic to Structure + Sensitive to Rejection (88)

I’m sharing what it actually feels like to be in a creative season where nothing feels linear, my nervous system is sensitive, and I keep bumping up against the part of me that wants to throw in the towel.If you’re someone who’s also sensitive, quietly rebellious, allergic to rigid structure, or just plain tired of pretending the creative process is clean, consistent, and “high vibe” all the time, then this one's a love letter for you.I talk about:Coming out of a burnout wave and rebuilding trust with my own rhythmThe energy rollercoaster of the past month and what’s helped regulate meThe magic of co-regulating with people I trust and how momentum can be contagiousNavigating rejection sensitivity and the fear that I’m “too much” or “too inconsistent” to be understoodWhy the mess almost always comes before the clarityMy creative process as a neurodivergent mama who craves structure but also resists it deeplyLetting ideas crumble and reconfigure, like building block towers with my toddlerLearning not to run someone else’s race, and instead trusting my pace, even when it’s slow or weird or differentWhy I believe missed shots in business don’t mean anything about ME If you’re in a tender season, stuck in the swirl of too many ideas, grieving a past offer that didn’t land, or questioning your pace, I hope this episode feels like a soft exhale. You’re not behind. You’re just building something honest that probably looks more like web, instead of a ladder! As always, I'd love to hear what stirs or lands for you in this conversation.
