Sisters of the Valley launches Spotify podcast led by younger members

The California sisterhood known for plant-based medicine and women’s empowerment has launched Sit Down With The Sisters on Spotify. The show, which began Sept. 9 and now has three episodes, uses history and lived experience to examine patriarchy, economic systems and women’s labor.

Why it matters: - The podcast gives Sisters of the Valley a new public platform to explore women’s history, patriarchy and economic independence beyond its plant-based medicine business. - The project highlights how younger members of the sisterhood are shaping the group’s message and future conversations. - The show adds a media channel for discussions about historical injustice, social structures and more equitable economic models.

What happened: - Sisters of the Valley launched a Spotify podcast called Sit Down With The Sisters. - The podcast debuted Sept. 9, 2026, with an episode titled "The Ways Patriarchy Steals from Women." - Halla, a resident and member of the Sisters of the Valley community, leads the podcast. - Sister Camilla and Sister Hilda appear as regular contributors. - Founder Sister Kate joins occasionally, along with other members of the sisterhood. - The show currently has three episodes available on Spotify.

The details: - The Sept. 9 debut episode examines how patriarchal systems have historically diminished women’s contributions, opportunities and autonomy. - Two additional episodes were released Oct. 16. - "Caliban and the Witch: Chapter 1" begins a book-club discussion of Silvia Federici’s Caliban and the Witch: Women, the Body and Primitive Accumulation. - That episode looks at the rise of capitalism from feudal society, including the persecution of women, the destruction of communal traditions and changes to women’s labor. - "Invisible Labor" focuses on the often unrecognized work that sustains households, communities and economies. - The episode combines personal experiences with research and social commentary. - The podcast reflects a growing interest among younger women in the sisterhood in the origins of modern social and economic institutions. - Sisters of the Valley says additional programming is planned. - More information is available on the sisters’ website and the ministry site.

Between the lines: - The podcast signals a shift from the group’s core business into broader cultural and political commentary. - The format brings together different generations inside the sisterhood around shared questions about work, history and power. - The choice of topics suggests the younger members want to connect personal experience to larger structural critiques.

What's next: - Sisters of the Valley plans to add more episodes and expand the program. - The podcast is likely to continue mixing historical research, lived experience and commentary on alternative social models. - The group’s media presence could grow as the show reaches listeners beyond its existing audience.

The bottom line: - Sit Down With The Sisters turns the Sisters of the Valley’s social mission into a podcast focused on women’s lives, labor and the systems that shape both.
