For the next month, I will be taking a brief hiatus from the podcast to rest and recharge! Please let me know if there is anything you are interested in seeing on the show in Season 2. I encourage you to use this time to catch up on any old episodes you have missed out on! If you want to work 1:1 with me, join my Patreon, or book a guided breath and visualization journey, all of that can be found on my website. https://www.empoweredspirituality.online/

In this solo episode, I am talking all about the LOA/manifestation: the good, the bad, and the ugly! I talk about the things I like about it and the ways it could be useful, as well as the things I absolutely do not like and the parts that are downright toxic, abusive, and oppressive.  

Thank you to @seekingwithsattva for letting me read from your posts!

Rebecca M. Farrar, M.A., aka Wild Witch of the West, is an archetypal astrologer and wild woman living in the San Francisco Bay Area (Coast Miwok land). Her work has been featured in Elle, Reader’s Digest, Bustle, Astrology.com, and Elite Daily.  For more than a decade Rebecca has offered down-to-Earth astrology readings focused on the asteroids, dwarf planets, soul-care, feminine archetypes, depth psychology, relationships, and life purpose. When not staring at astrology transits, she can be found getting lost on a hiking trail, curled up with a good book, or watching silly TikTok videos. In this episode, we talked about blending mythology into psychology, being our wild selves, what it means to be a witch, and so much more!

Today I am talking about supplements and health research! TLDR - you probably don't need to buy all those supplements. ;)

Today I am joined by Mao Beckett! Mao is a co-host of Millennial Therapists podcast with Mao and Nao, a true crime/forensic psychology podcast. She provides liberation-oriented mental health care as a millennial attachment-based therapist, EMDR trained, a first generation American, and child of Cambodian immigrants and refugees. She helps first-generation, liberation-seeking millennials overcome stuckness to identify and reconnect with their desires.

As an inclusive therapist striving to decolonize mental health care and healing, she incorporates an ethical framework of psychotherapy, spiritual and healing of the mind, community, body, and spirit. She is independently licensed to practice therapy in Massachusetts, Guam, and Hawaii.

Today, we talked all about Multi-Level Marketing, or MLM. Mao explains the psychological tactics of how MLMs recruit, why they are so dangerous, how they can be abusive and cult-like, how hard it is to get out once you are in, the impact it takes on our mental health to be in an MLM, the sunk cost fallacy, and so much more. 

All the opinions expressed in this episode are our own.

In this episode, I am going to explore some ways that over systems like racism, colonialism, capitalism, and ableism plays into the information we receive about food and nutrition. I am not an expert on food racism, so these points are just from things I have personally researched. Stay tuned for an upcoming episode with someone who is more of an expert on these things! Also, please keep in mind that all the examples I use are not personal or an attack or judgment on your style of eating and lifestyle! This is more to look at popular diets from a critical lens that is something that is missing some of the time. Always defer to your own judgment and life experience (as well as your medical team) when making food decisions.
