Planting Seeds for Success: From Growing a Garden to Raising a Family, with Gina DiSalvo

Do you have a hard time trusting your intuition and end up following other people’s strategies in order to find success?  What if I told you that leaning into your intuition and simplifying what you can handle is the secret behind sustainable growth and success? 
This week, I'm joined by Gina DiSalvo and we dissect what it means to follow your intuition and focus on what you can actually manage in this season of your life. Gina is a backyard veggie gardener, wife and mom of 3 on a journey to self sufficiency. She doesn’t have much time to spend in the garden but loves growing food for her family that is nutrient dense and free of chemicals. We talked about the importance of simplicity and trusting the natural processes of growth, whether that's in the garden or in our own lives. Just like seeds and plants naturally want to grow, our babies and businesses have their own journeys and growth timeline.   
We also chatted about:

  • Overcoming good girl conditioning
  • Recognizing people-pleasing tendencies when you consider yourself a "rebel"
  • Standing in your truth ,even around authority figures 
  • Taking radical responsibility in your household 
  • The simplest definition of trusting your intuition 
  • Intuitive gardening and connecting to nature without adding to your to do list 
  • ...and so much more! 

If you're a mom or a business owner looking for tips on finding balance and owning your authentic self, you don't want to miss this episode!

About the Podcast

REWILD + FREE
Stirring good kinda trouble. This is a podcast where conscious entrepreneurship and personal exploration meets decolonization, nervous system healing, and cyclical living
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.
