Carolyn Elliott on Intimacy and Magic, Diving Deep into Shadow Work, and Finding Inspiration in Failure [episode 84]

Earth Speak is helping you to be your own best connection to your intuition, spirit guides, Earth, and the divine. Episodes feature  conversations with people, plants, nature spirits, and high-vibration places on Earth. For many episodes, we're giving EARTH the microphone with channeled messages from nature beings.  Human guests share their approaches to standing in their power, working with spirits, deepening their connection with nature, and shamelessly embodying their true selves. Topics covered include deconditioning your mind, working with ancestors and nature spirits, folk herbalism, plant-spirit medicine, true self-care, shadow integration, what it means to be a modern witch, conscious co-creation, (wo)manifestation, intuitive business practices, and more.

She guides her community to rewrite their relationship to safety, love, trust, and belonging so they are able to cultivate conscious relationships and manifest their Dao (purpose).  Kat believes that healing is a deep remembrance of who you are + recognizing that you are not broken. She believes that the Body, Mind, and Soul are interconnected and respond best to an integrated approach where all the parts of you are remembered. She believes in leaving room for magic. For slowing down to allow your intuition and Truth to rise to the surface. For finding validation through being rather than doing. For flowing through life being actively allowing rather than grasping.
