Embodied Writing Warrior: Food Freedom, Creativity & Spiritual Reclamation

179. Stop Hiding Your Magic: How Embodied Creativity & Emotional Alchemy Heal Witch Wounds (Ft. Maya Lila Di Vento)

Kayla MacDonald

If you’ve ever felt too weird, too intuitive, or too powerful for the world around you… this one’s for you.

In this soul-stirring conversation, Kayla sits down with holistic transformational coach and somatic mystic Maya Lila to talk about what it really takes to reclaim your creative fire, own your feminine magic, and stop self-sabotaging your brilliance.

Maya Lila shares her story of following intuitive breadcrumbs around the globe, leaving behind the old paradigm of martyrdom and stepping fully into her role as an embodied creator, spiritual teacher, and mother raising daughters to follow their dreams.

Together, they explore:

✨ Why movement and dance are the gateway to soul-led writing
 ✨ The deeper connection between “weirdness” and witch wounds
 ✨ How ancestral and past-life fears keep women from expressing their full power
 ✨ The danger of confusing control with safety - and why magic lives in the unknown
 ✨ Using somatic embodiment to heal without needing all the cognitive details
 ✨ How to stop leaking power into food, drama, or perfectionism and reclaim it for your art
 ✨ Maya Lila’s book-writing journey, mystical synchronicities, and why now is the time to write your damn book
 ✨ A simple but powerful embodiment practice to release tension and reconnect with your body’s wisdom

If you've ever wondered how to let your creativity lead, how to own your magic without fear of being “too much,” or how to finally stop hiding—this episode will resonate on a deep, cellular level.
