Welcome to the first episode of Fires of Alchemy: In Conversation—a fireside chat style podcast exploring fear, transformation, desire, embodiment, and the real magic hidden in everyday moments.

In this deep dive, we unpack the key ideas behind the Fires of Alchemy journey so far. Drawing from blog posts, tarot reflections, psychological research, and embodied wisdom, we explore:

The difference between fear and anxiety

How the brain’s ‘fear loop’ gets stuck (and how to exit it)

Guilt vs toxic guilt—and how to reclaim your energy

Inner child healing and emotional memory

Embodiment practices like quantum relics and nature rituals

Desire as divination

Tools for discernment in a noisy world: media literacy, algorithms, and AI

This is a warm, intuitive summary of almost everything Fires of Alchemy has covered so far, inviting you to begin your own transformation—one step, one scroll, one inner whisper at a time.
