BROADCASTING FROM THE EDGE. FOR WOMEN ON THE EDGE.
An edgecast is a broadcast – as audio and/or video – of conversations, interviews, and other material from the edges of modern culture for Edgeworkers.
Radically Alive Women (RAW) Edgecast brings you conversations with courageous Women (and some Men) that are taking a stand for radical aliveness. We are broadcasting from and beyond the edge of patriarchy, mapping the way to regenerative cultures that emerge from initiated adult Women and Men collaborating.
This Edgecast is brought to you by Julia Neumann, Annika Korsten and Hannah Abouzahrah, and is powered by Radically Alive Women, a context for empowering radical aliveness in Women (and also Men).

Conversations with courageous Women (and some Men) that are taking a stand for radical aliveness.
We are broadcasting from and beyond the edge of patriarchy, mapping the way to Archiarchy: next culture of initiated adult Women and Men collaborating.
This Edgecast is brought to you by Julia Neumann, Annika Korsten and Hannah Abouzahrah, and is powered by Radically Alive Women, a context for empowering radical aliveness in Women (and also Men).
In this episode, Annika Korsten speaks with Anna Groves, a CNVC Nonviolent Communication Trainer and Somatic Practitioner based in Aotearoa New Zealand. Anna’s presence is captivating in its simplicity and humility, creating a space where the nervous system can relax and shift toward a more compassionate orientation toward oneself and life.
While acknowledging the pain that exists in every human experience, including her own, Anna illuminates a path where life can be full of love and adventure—living from what truly matters, not out of obligation, but from a genuine desire to do so. She creates a space of liberation, allowing for being with what is present in the body, while simultaneously observing the tendencies to critique, analyse, amplify, or minimise those sensations.
Anna emphasises the importance of connection – both to others and to a community – in interrupting addictive patterns and behaviors. For her, sobriety has been a key practice in developing her ability to remain fully present.
What if healing wasn’t just an abstract concept, but a lived experience? What if all the colors and emotions of being human were fully embraced, each finding a place of compassion within us?

INSPIRING. ENCOURAGING. EMPOWERING.
We broadcast these conversations to inspire, encourage and empower women to take courage, be their authentic selves, speak up and take bold action at and beyond the edges of mainstream cultures. When women do that, all life thrives.
Our interviews with women that are making an impact are designed to spark women’s innate power: “If she can do it, I can, too – in my own way”. A rising tide of radically alive women lifts the whole world.
The conversations are made available by Julia Neumann, Annika Korsten and Hannah Abouzahrah mainly free-of-charge. The Edgecast is financially supported through a Membership option and donations.
If you want to support this cause, we deeply appreciate your contribution.
