In today’s episode, I come to you solo in the middle of a day when I had no intentions of leaving the couch. Something just sparked about using creativity as a method to express your whole authentic self, and I absolutely had to jump on it.

I talk about:

• The time I downloaded the content of several books without reading any of it.

• The social restrictions on making art and why they’re helpful.

• The spectrum creative and analytical thinking live on.

• Diving into the negative space of the spectrum between creative and analytical thinking.

• Why going hard on my analytical side helped me unleash my authentic self in the end.

• The value in connecting your creative and analytical sides.

• How to seamlessly connect these opposing parts of yourself.

Casually Profound is a podcast dedicated to anyone who has ever looked around at the people in their lives and realized they had no one they could really TALK to and go DEEP with. We are here to have those conversations and welcome you into the secret sanctum with us. There are no sacred cows here, we are just here to talk about what it has been like implementing half the stuff the "gurus" go on about on social media.

I’d love to tell you a story… if you’d like to join me. This is the hidden story nobody talks about, of how the ego creeps in to our spiritual journey. I’d like to tell you about the ways I thought I was being noble and spiritual and righteous, but I was really just seeking “specialness” and to feel better than everyone around me.

So let’s get into:

• The times I fkd around and found out with my spiritual gifts.

• My first experience with spirit.

• My first time giving energy work to another.

• The mentors who helped me learn to work with spirit throughout my life.

• The first time I tried making money giving energy work.

• The courses I took to learn how to provide energy work.

• The time I begged the universe for all my past life memories.

• What my ego sounded like to me (and why I only realized this in hindsight).

• How I used spirituality to gaslight myself into accepting the life I’d boxed myself into.

• The times I thought I knew better than the universe.

• The time I got kicked out of the Akashic Records and all my spirit guides went radio silent.

• What I learned from having all of my energetic modalities stripped from me.

• The value in knowing your own heart and being present in my body.

Liz & Anastasia join me to talk about all the things we have learned from our past lives, which of course veered us into timeline conspiracies and deja vu. We do this work for clients and ourselves, but the biggest takeaway we’ve all had is that this is deep, deep work that brings forward great gifts in our current reality.

In this episode we talk about:

• How we all connect to past life information for ourselves and for clients.

• How we each experience claircognizance and clairsentience.

• Important past life experiences we have each worked through.

• How past life healing affects our current-life mental, emotional, and physical issues.

• Why lessons come in the form of difficulties instead of happy-fun-times.

• The gifts past lives have given us, specifically for motherhood for Liz.

• The mix between ancestral knowledge and past life knowledge.

• The multi-dimensionality of time and the order of past lives.

• What happens when lives overlap, and how you might be living in multiple bodies at the same moment in time.

• Many wild theories of time, lifetimes, and lessons.

• Our weird deja vu moments.

• Why you can’t just go into past lives for funsies, spirit will only grant you access to the most important things. The rest is password protected.

Liz Zamorski & Meghan Sylvester join me today to discuss our long personal journeys from living in a corporate hustle and moving into a life informed by flow and intuition. We go well beyond the usual “follow your heart” jargon and really share the stories of what it looked, felt, and sounded like for us while we were going through our big transitions. The journey was long for all of us, but the revelations along the way helped form a rich and fulfilling life along the way.

In this episode we talk about:

• The long road we took to arrive at our spiritual careers.

• The self-talk we experienced while in the rat race.

• The physical symptoms we experienced while being deep in the hustle.

• How much longer things take to process and manifest than we expect them to.

• Why “I will build it and they will come” doesn’t happen.

• The difference between keeping yourself busy at a slower pace, and actually unplugging.

• How to move beyond cause and effect and into a life trusting the sustainable pace of trusting your intuition and acting on the hits it brings you.

• Process coaching versus results-oriented coaching.

• The capitalist nature of procrastination.

• The process of taking our time to de-escalate from hustle culture.

• What it’s like stepping into the void and trusting it to carry you through to your soul’s purpose.

• How “random” offerings culminated in something way larger than we could have originally imagined.

• How gratitude cultivates more awareness and trust in the void space.

• Playing in the energy of going back to corporate life to re-confirm the choice of living in flow.

Liz, Larissa, Rachel, and I all discuss the inner process we go through when we all read tarot. Each of us comes from immensely different schools of tarot, but we all go through a very similar inner landscape to bring forward the messages that speak to our soul. The way these different methods all weave together is truly breathtaking.

In this episode we talked about:

• What initially drew each of us to tarot.

• Finding the invitation inwards in each tarot reading.

• The different ways we use oracle cards and tarot cards.

• How the language and framework of tarot allow a reader to illustrate a story in response to the questions posed.

• Modern tarot decks and how images affect the information a reader might pull from a card.

• The artistic experience that is inherently present within tarot.

• How pop culture misses the mark with some novelty decks.

• Comparing reading tarot to visiting an art gallery (it’s magical).

• Analyzing how reading tarot subverts the conscious mind to access long-term memory and patterns.

• Describing tarot reading as doing a reverse-image search in your unconscious.

• Navigating the ego involved in delivering messages to the person you’re reading for.

• How to determine which tarot reader is right for you and your nervous system.

• Distracting your ego to allow the channel to open up for the messages to pour through.

• Discussing the ethics of making money from tarot readings in a capitalist context.

• Balancing fulfillment, curiosity, community, and capitalism in our modern society.

• Liz’s upcoming retreat, the Motherland Retreat, in Sweden (link below).

• Diving deep into specific cards in the tarot: the chariot, high priestess, moon, tower, pages, ace of wands, magician, star, 3 and 6 of cups,
