EARTH TRIBE RADIO

We started Earth Tribe Radio to bring people together — sharing wisdom, insights, and questions from thinkers and teachers, known and unknown, from all over the world. Through interviews, awakening stories, and honest conversation, we offer tools, techniques, and reminders that help us come back to the light we've always been.

For over ten years, this show has been a home for real conversations about who we are and how we find our way back to ourselves and our light.

Here's a little about the two of us behind the microphone. For over ten years, Fiona Whitmore and Jill Townsend co-hosted Earth Tribe Radio. Jill has stepped back from new episodes because of her cancer, but her voice lives on across our 375+ episode archive. Going forward, Fiona is joined by a rotating lineup of guest co-hosts.

Earth Tribe Radio gives tools, techniques, and meditations that can help us remember the light that we are, that we’ve always been. A radio station connecting people together, gathering questions from around the world. 

Fiona Whitmore.

Fiona grew up on a farm in South Africa for the first 8 years of her life. Before emigrating to Australia, where she trained as a coloratura soprano at the Adelaide University Conservatorium and performed with the South Australian Opera and at the Adelaide Festival Theatre. A spiritual epiphany — arriving around the same time as the birth of her daughter — led her away from the stage and into a life of healing, teaching, and travel, including journeys to Egypt and Delphi that deepened her sense of the sacred in the everyday.

She studied Qi Gong for sixteen years under Grandmaster Hong Liu, and in 1996 founded what would become the Healix School of Energy Healing and Earth Studies — first in New York, later relocating to Northern California, where she now lives. Fiona is also the creator of the Lemurian Sound Healing Technique, a Feng Shui practitioner, and a death doula.

She is the author of the Barefoot Series — Books That Walk You Home — a planned ten-book collection drawing on over 40 years of teaching across sound healing, Feng Shui, Qi Gong, death doula work, and meditation. Barefoot Enlightenment, Barefoot Feng Shui, Barefoot Death, and Barefoot Sound Healing are available now, with more books in the series on the way.

She co-founded Earth Tribe Radio over ten years ago as a space for real conversations about who we are and how we find our way back to ourselves, to our light.

Jill Townsend

Jill graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London and went on to a career in film and television, including roles in Cimarron Strip, Poldark, and The Golden Bowl. After ending her acting career in 1979, she studied at the London School of Journalism and worked as a journalist for the Daily Mail, before turning her attention to environmental advocacy — researching and working on legislation aimed at stopping the dumping of toxic and nuclear waste in Britain.

She went on to study behavioral aspects of international relations at the University of Surrey, and was later invited to serve as a teaching assistant at Harvard Law School's Program on Negotiation. Jill has led Rites of Passage programs and Vision Fasts, and is a Pipe Carrier — adopted by the Lakota in a Hunkapi Ceremony and given her Lakota name. She is a Spiritual Counselor, a Minister, and a Ceremonialist.

Jill co-hosted Earth Tribe Radio with Fiona for over ten years, bringing her voice to most of the show's 375+ episode archive.
