Life Lately

This episode is all about the value of returning to spiritual study with a mentor, and how learning, teaching, and ritual can support spiritual practice.

Azure shares her experience with clairaudience and her efforts to strengthen and ground her intuitive listening, while Holly considers how to balance intuitive perception with analytical thinking and how to communicate it clearly.

They also discuss Azure’s upcoming course on intuitive senses and energetics, and Holly’s plans to combine yin yoga with dream work at their Nourish Renewal Retreat in April (link below).

This episode Holly and Azure discuss how our relationship to devotion can change over time, and how letting go of goals that no longer feel aligned differs from giving up.

They reflect on the value of both deep commitment to one interest and exploring different subjects, as well as the changing energy of fall and the time it can take to process new experiences.

The episode ends with journal prompts about what we’re devoted to and where we want to spend our time in this season.

In this episode, Azure and Holly talk about returning from retreats and workshops feeling tired and needing more space to recover before getting back to daily responsibilities. They discuss allowing ourselves to slow down, rest, and integrate experiences instead of always pushing through.

They also reflect on how teaching and facilitating can bring new clarity after time away, and compare recovery to recharging a battery. They end by talking about journaling, noticing what needs nourishment, and using simple rest such as naps to recharge.

In this episode Holly and Azure talk about the idea of waiting for a sign versus making a decision, and question whether waiting is really about guidance or about avoiding action, discomfort, or change. They discuss how signs may come after we start moving, and how taking a first step can build momentum and make later changes easier.

They also reflect on fear of failure, rejection, and the unknown, and note that the discomfort of not acting can sometimes be greater than the discomfort of acting. They each share a journal prompt about comparing those feelings and considering what we may gain by staying stagnant.

They close by encouraging listeners to think of one difficult thing, imagine support around them, and take the step instead of overthinking it.

This episode is about getting to know Azure Wolfe and her life story, from being born in Alexandria and moving to Utah as a child to growing up with a strong connection to the outdoors. She reflects on her high school years, when she dealt with seizures, anger, and authority, and on the changes she began making around age 16.

Azure also shares the unconventional path she followed through her 20s and 30s, including jobs like running a bakery and wildland firefighting, while prioritizing freedom, travel, and time in nature. Later, she talks about becoming more spiritually curious, her connection to her body and the earth, and how community and turning 50 shaped her sense of self.

In this episode Azure and Holly talk about integrating after deep healing work and why insights can take time to settle. They discuss how this process can require more space and gentleness, including slowing down after retreats, workshops, or intense practices rather than rushing back into a busy routine.

They also explore journaling as a way to support integration by noticing changes in our responses, recurring patterns, dreams, and small impressions. Also, they talk about the role of clear intention, recognizing resistance as old patterns shift, and close by saying that integration does not always have to be difficult and can also happen through joy.

In this episode, Holly and Azure have a freeform conversation that moves through different ideas and the experience of bringing different parts of ourselves back together. They also discuss retreats, learning from different healers and teachers, and the importance of discernment when taking in other perspectives.

They then talk about costumes and clothing as a metaphor for authenticity and fit, including the idea that what works for one person may not work for another. The episode closes with a discussion of a timed meditation candle that was gifted to Azure, which she uses as both a timer and a focal point for watching the flame and reflecting on release and transformation... the magic of fire.

Holly and Azure talk about moments of uncertainty, low motivation, and change, and how the question of WTF are we doing with our lives can come up during times of growth. They reflect on how discomfort can coexist with progress, and how small actions may still have meaning even when their impact is not immediately visible.

They also discuss motivation in work, especially when results are harder to see online, and why in-person experiences like retreats can feel more tangible than social media interaction. Finally, Holly and Azue share ways of responding to these doubts, including journaling, checking in with our bodies, asking what we need to know, and reconsidering whether our current beliefs are still true.

In this episode, Azure and Holly talk about the ways we put ourselves into boxes and hide parts of who we are out of fear of judgment or rejection. They reflect on vulnerability, self-permission, and how being more fully seen can lead to deeper connection and support.

They also discuss what it means to feel “feral” or wild as we get older, including expressing ourselves more freely, moving naturally, and reconnecting with childhood traits. They close with journal prompts about what freedom would look like if no one were watching.
