Hello All! I am excited to share this episode of the Sober Shaman Podcast, in which I have a conversation with Soraya James. She is a "guide through life’s deepest thresholds — grief, betrayal, identity loss, menopause, heartbreak, trauma and awakening." (From her website: https://soreya-james.mvt.so/meet-soreya )

In our talk, we explore the idea of alchemizing trauma, and here's an overview of our conversational path: 

• We delve into the integration of spiritual practices with recovery methodologies, particularly focusing on addiction and trauma healing.
• Soreya emphasizes the importance of embodiment and physical awareness in the process of alchemizing trauma.
• We explore the multifaceted nature of grief, suggesting that many individuals fear grief more than death itself due to its complex layers and emotional toll.
• Soreya encourages listeners to recognize that transformation is a natural process, akin to metamorphosis, which occurs through various stages of personal and spiritual development.
• The podcast stresses the significance of listening to one's body and emotions as vital components in the healing journey, advocating for a deeper connection with nature and self.
• A unique aspect of the Metamorphosis series is its integration of a companion app that provides therapeutic resources, allowing viewers to engage with their healing process actively.
