A Wild New Work

We all bump into periods when we desire movement but the internal or external circumstances don’t feel conducive to it. Or we want to make moves and feel a sense of agency in our lives but we can’t seem to connect with the fire within us.

In this episode, I’ll share how you can find movement and create heat in your working life no matter the circumstances.

As we cross into the mid-Autumn period, we enter the heart of nature’s death cycle. If we’re willing to be wise, we can use this time to look at and tend to what has died or is ready to die: lifeless jobs, projects, ways of relating, or beliefs about what’s possible for us. And what about when we’re on the other side of a death, what then? In this episode, I share what the vulture can show us about how to metabolize the little deaths we experience so that we can find liberation and soar with grace.

In this special episode, I’m sharing a piece of writing that I published on my blog on the Autumn Equinox. It includes my reflections on how difficult it has felt to connect to the magic of land and place as a descendant of white settlers living on colonized land, and the questions I’m asking in search of clarity about where to take my family line now.

Being in relationship, mentorship, and collaboration with others is essential to living a full and bright life, but there are times when we need to reconnect with the inner wisdom that flows through us first, letting go of the inputs from other people.

In the late Summer and early Fall, we can work with the seasonal shift by listening to the calls we hear to separate from daily life and attune to the transformation that is taking place.

This episode is all about how to do just that - align with the seasonal shift from Summer to Fall energetically, practically, and professionally.

Many of us carry around a belief that if we follow our soul’s purpose and do the work we’re meant to do in this world, we’ll have to suffer financially. We can be so bought into this idea that every idea we have about what else we could do is immediately discounted because we can’t see how we could “make a living from it.” In this episode, I share:

* What the rest of the natural world can show us about the judicious use of resources

* The traps that limit our thinking about finances and purpose

* More expanded, nuanced ways to work with your heart’s desire for good work and the realities of living inside capitalism

Crabs offer us one of the most profound models for transformation that I’ve come across in nature. As the Sun hangs in the sign of the crab, Cancer, I’m exploring what this creature can teach us about how to become so filled up that our old shells can’t help but break open. In this episode, I cover:

* The vocational themes of Summer: fruition and alignment

* How crabs molt and what that shows us about our own personal transformations

* How to change your life and work in easier, more joyful ways
