  • 91. Amorality, Suffering and Manifestation (Part 1) ft. Jaliessa Sipress

    This is one of my favourite episodes to date! I’m joined by the brilliant astrologer wizard Jaliessa Sipress to discuss amorality, the nature of suffering, manifestation and human duality


    • Amorality and moving away from good/bad and right/wrong
    • Manifestation and moving away from mainstream models. 
    • Engaging with world suffering and debating the idea of resilience
    • Social expectations, fear of judgement and being labelled a “bad” person
    • Is it possible to engage in the suffering of others without becoming consumed by it?
    • Detachment and choosing what to prioritize. 
    • The concept of urgency


    Part 2 is IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE over on Patreon! We shift gears and have a blast discussing pop culture:


    • Diddy, celebrity and how abuse is a symbiotic organism in Hollywood
    • Are you really ready to Eat the rich and cancel y’alls faves, Bey included? (NO)
    • Celebrity as a mirror of our own shadow and darkness
    • Andrew Huberman and the expectation of universal morality from the people we admire
    • The conduct we accept interpersonally vs. from public figures
    • Unfettered spiritual practice leading to psychosis, the importance of knowing your limits

  • 90. People Pleasing Causes More Conflict than it Resolves

    I didn’t stutter! On this episode we are graced with Nyak’s presence to discuss all things people pleasing. Is it a tool that helps avoid conflict, or does it actively contribute to it? We read out your juicy people pleaser DMs (thanks for sending them) and discuss polyamory and a dust up with a psychic (oops! everyone pray for us😬). Additionally: 

    • Communicating capacity and boundaries in friendships
    • Communication styles over text
    • Overextending oneself and its consequences
    • How to communicate the inability to hold space
    • Appropriate vs. Inappropriate white lies

  • 81. Leave Amanda Seales alone! Black Autistic Women are Targets

    Amanda Seales is being unfairly dog-pilled on. When people are cut down because they're honest and direct, what does this say about society at large? If it's unsafe for a successful, effective, beautiful neurotypical woman (I recorded this a week before she shared she was autistic - okay psychic!) to be unflinching in her anti-establishment critiques, what hope is there for the average black autistic woman? This episode dissects bullying dynamics, the price of honesty, Hollywood, blackness and the isolation that comes from being a truth-teller. I discuss:


    • The Unfair Treatment of Amanda Seales and Its Implications on black autistic women
    • The Intersection of Autism, Likability, and Professional Success
    • Black Hollywood, oppression, and how bullies thrive in silence

  • 80. The will to live amidst societal collapse

    TRIGGER WARNING: S*icide


    I've been having a hard time making meaning out of life - what with societal collapse, genocides and

    hustle culture - and wanted to share some conclusions I made about why it is better to stay alive than to opt out. I hope this episode makes you feel seen and a little less alone.


    Themes discussed:


    • Arguments in favour of staying alive
    • Finding joy while the world is burning
    • Finding ones place in the world
    • Autism and justice sensitivity 
    • Magic and nature

    In this episode we discuss issues around how to effectively and selflessly hold space for people. Do you know how to hold space for people without making their problems about you? Is wanting to fix loved one's issues a compassionate or selfish act? As a spiritual person is it defeatist to accept suffering and illness?
