Healing Our Kindred Spirits
Welcome to Healing Our Kindred Spirits — created and hosted by Donna Gaudette. This soulful podcast weaves together storytelling, intuitive wisdom, and heart-centered reflections for those navigating life’s transitions, spiritual awakenings, and the deeper questions of being human.
Through authentic conversations and personal insights, I hold space for the sensitive, the seekers, and the resilient souls who are ready to feel seen, heard, and supported on their journey.
Each episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and reconnect — with yourself, with your spirit, and with the shared threads that bind us all. Whether you’re here to find comfort, connection, explore spirituality, or simply feel less alone, you are in the right place.
Be sure to look for journal prompts for each episode as well as an original guided meditation that further support you.
Because here, you are never too much — and you are always, ALWAYS enough.

Healing Our Kindred Spirits
Guided Meditation: Timeless Reflections from “Yes, Virginia, There is a Santa Claus”
What if belief didn’t vanish as you grew up—it just learned to whisper? We invite you into a slow, steady meditation that begins in the body and unfolds into a meeting with your inner child. Through grounding breath, a gentle body scan, and a vivid inner room, you’ll reconnect with the part of you that still trusts, asks brave questions, and wants permission to hope again.
We start by creating safety in simple ways: unclenching the jaw, softening the shoulders, letting the breath find a natural rhythm. From that grounded base, we guide you to a familiar inner space where a letter waits to be written. Your younger self asks the questions that many adults keep quiet: Is it okay to still believe? Is there goodness in the world? Is it safe to hope again? Instead of quick fixes, we offer honest companionship—and then the pen passes to you.
As you write back, you practice a kind of inner reparenting: reframing belief as quiet presence rather than certainty, and magic as meaning that changes form. We talk about how hope can be small and still be real, how permission heals more deeply than promises, and how receiving a simple gift—feeling, memory, or joy—completes a loop of self-trust. When the vision softens, we return to the body with a slower breath and a brighter center, carrying forward a soft commitment to speak gently to ourselves when hope feels fragile.
If this meditation helps you remember something true, share it with someone who needs a little light today. Subscribe for more guided practices, leave a review to help others find the show, and tell us: what line did you write back to your inner child?
