About the author

Cara H. Cadwallader is an embodiment artist and dance philosopher who dances with the pen on the page as well as her feet on the Earth.
A master of embodiment, Cara has spent over 35 years exploring, studying and performing movement and all of its metaphors. Over the past fifteen years, Cara's main investigation has been in how she can deeply connect to herself, others and our planet.

A creator of joy-filled, diverse and warm spaces, Cara co-founded a community gathering space and dance studio for organic connection in downtown San Diego. With the birth of her only child, Cara shifted her educator lens towards women’s health and well-being as well as in co-creating a village space for families to gather. Now, after having survived miscarriage, her partner’s 4th stage cancer diagnosis and subsequent death, Cara's book The Mama Caravan is a hopeful journey through the stormy waters of loss and grief as well as a maternal mental health map for how other mothers can remember how to prioritize their mental health and emotional bodies.

Driving over 12,000 miles across the USA while embodying her emotions and feelings, Cara worked to better understand how to care for herself and be more present and available to her young son. This is how she has coped with her shock and trauma in finding herself as a lone Mother in this brave new world of Covid, calamity, and chaos.

Update #8 - The Mama Caravan rides onto the Grief & Grace Worldwide Walkathon Podcast Party 11/15 1pm PST TOMORROW Nov. 14, 2022

Hi Friend,


I trust this finds you savoring the scents and climate of fall in your neck of the woods.

It's cold here in Chiapas - it was even 40 degrees the other morning! Our cabin does not retain heat, and there is no central heating, but I reflect on my neighbors, a 5-member family living in a 10'x15' shack nearby, and so I check in on any feelings of entitlement for a warm home that I might have. Which is another reason I like living south of the border.  

It's official! We're sliding down the last slope for 2022 - Thanksgiving is next week already! I will be offering some free Emotional Fitness Dojo experiences during the up and coming holidays to help both prepare for and let go of whatever experiences we may - or may not - be looking forward to and then having.  

Stay tuned for that email, and hop in on tomorrow's Walkathon Podcast Party. Jennifer Cormier, a fellow Mama sister friend in Encinitas, California, is the host of the Walk Through Grief with Grace Podcast and has a lovely lineup of presenters sharing about their experiences with Grief. Plus, you will be encouraged to get outside and go for a short walk - perfect! 

Grab your earbuds, and I hope to share with you tomorrow!

----Cara

I will be sharing about FEELING ALL OF OUR FEELINGS ~ Grief, Rage & Fear included.

FACEBOOK EVENT LINK HERE.

I HOPE TO DROP IN WITH YOU THERE. 

Or, Next Week.
