How Kate Fisher found herself at the brink of death, having to choose between this world and the next. Plus one of the best foods to feel grounded: for keeping a level head and making good decisions(!)
Hi everybody, I'm Barbara Fernandez, the Rocking Raw Chef, here with my Clean Food, Dirty Stories: one to entertain, the other to inspire.
I help people stamp out stress, depression and fatigue over at RockingRawChef.com, and today's title is:
This world...Or Another
In addition to this story, at the end of this episode I'll share with you one of the best foods to feel grounded - in other words, to help us stay clear-headed and even make better decisions in our lives.
OK enough hints from me, I'm sure you have no idea what that food is...or maybe you do, so let's get on with the story.
Our guest, Kate Fisher
I am super excited to be joined here today for our story by Kate Fisher. Kate is a shamanic practitioner who specialises in helping others to connect with the power that is already within them. She is also an artist, and she works with drums, paint and clay to create shamanic tools, paintings and ceramics. And she works with people not only face to face, but also at a distance which I think is very cool. She has a pretty incredible story to share which I think you're going to love!
So Kate, welcome to the Clean Food, Dirty Stories podcast!
Kate: Thanks Barbara.
Me: Yeah, it's great to have you. I'm looking forward to sharing your story.
Kate's story
So you work in Norfolk, you live in Kent, but do you have a lot of trees surrounding you now? Because I know that you spent a lot of your childhood in trees, is that what you told me? Is that where your story begins?
Kate: Yeah, it kind of is, I was much more into sitting in trees and hanging out there and not really with the other kids. It just felt calming and I later found out that what was actually happening was that I was speaking with the tree deities and the tree spirits themselves.
Me: So like when most kids had imaginary friends, like little playmates and stuff, then you just had your playmates that were like in the trees and nature spirits and everything.
That's really cool, when I was...
