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, Hannah Abouzahrah and Nicole Hartley Bradford, and is powered by Radically Alive Women, a context for empowering radical aliveness in Women (and also Men).

Nicola Hearn is a woman that walks the edge between mainstream culture, activism, and advocacy for societal change. With a background in technology, she was the heart behind Third Space Canteen, a social enterprise promoting food culture.
In July 2025, one of her Instagram reels went viral in which she calls out greed and profit-orientation and calls in collaboration for societal change.
Listen in for a radically alive, authentic and vulnerable conversation with Julia Neumann, in which Nicola shares about her journey of self-discovery and activism. Nicola speaks about her experiences with patriarchy, capitalism, and the unique struggles women face in these environments. She emphasizes the importance of collaboration, authenticity, and mutual support, as well as the need for systemic change to create a more equitable society and to ensure a better future for our children. Nicola also offers practical advice for women looking to find and speak their own truths.

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, Mia Ruby Plum, Estefania Santamaria and Sebastian Plum mainly free-of-charge. The Edgecast is financially supported through a Membership option and donations as investments in this creation.
