What if you didn’t have to have it all figured out to begin again?

On this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah sits down with poet, astrologer, and author Heidi Rose Robbins to explore what it means to move through change with more presence, creativity, and trust.

Together, they reflect on what the Moon Studio is calling the “year of the pivot”—a time of reinvention, letting go, and becoming someone new, often without having a clear plan. They talk about how to navigate these moments without forcing clarity or perfection, and why the smallest steps can be the most powerful place to begin.

Heidi shares how poetry, astrology, and daily practices like writing can become a tool to help us move through uncertainty with more compassion. The two also explore the role of repetition in creativity, the importance of showing up consistently (even imperfectly), and how structure can support us as we evolve.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen more deeply, and trust that something new may already be opening.

Have you ever felt disconnected from your intuition, your guides, or your sense of self?

In this episode, we’re bringing back from the archives, Sarah revisits a powerful and deeply relevant conversation on navigating a spiritual crisis.

Whether sparked by personal upheaval, collective grief, or a slow inner collapse, spiritual crises can feel isolating and disorienting. But as Sarah reminds us, they are also part of being human and can become portals to deeper connection, clarity, and transformation.

In this episode, we explore:

What if your bloodwork say you’re “fine”… but your intuition is telling you something is “off”?

In this episode, Sarah is joined by licensed clinical scientist and author of Brains Like Ours: A Smart Girls Guide to Mood, Modern Life, and the Science Behind Mental Health Tyla Bee, who is on a mission to help people better understand their labs, their symptoms, and the powerful connection between intuition and data.

After experiencing rough mental health symptoms and discovering a critical vitamin deficiency that changed everything, Tyla transformed her personal journey into a framework for helping others take their health into their own hands.

In this conversation, Tyla breaks down why standard lab ranges can miss important imbalances, how chronic stress and nervous system overload show up in your bloodwork, and which key markers are often overlooked in conventional care.

You’ll learn:

Meet Tyla:

Tyla Bee is a licensed Clinical Scientist, Sunnyside Coach, lifetime card-carrying member of the anxiety club, and the author of Brains Like Ours: A Smart Girl's Guide to Mood, Modern Life, and the Science Behind Mental Health (Redwood Publishing, 2026).

What if astrology isn’t something you believe in—but something you practice?

In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah is joined by Dr. Michael J. Morris, a queer feminist astrologer, tarot reader, artist, and teacher, for an expansive conversation on astrology as a practice rather than a belief system.

Together, they explore relational and feminist astrology, conflict as a site of growth, and what it means to become who we are through what we practice.

We hope you’ll find this conversation to be a grounding and thought-provoking exploration of how astrology can support personal and collective transformation, not as something to believe in, but as something to live.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Meet Michael:

What if astrology isn’t something you believe in, but something you practice?

If you’ve ever felt confused about astrology you’re not alone. So many of us have been taught to approach spirituality through belief systems: Do you believe in this or not? And if you don’t, does that mean it has no value?

But what if that question is the wrong place to start?

In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah sits down with Dr. Michael J. Morris, queer feminist astrologer, writer, and teacher, to explore a radically different approach: astrology as a practice. Together, they unpack what becomes possible when we move away from belief and toward something we return to, live with, and grow through over time.

If you’ve been craving a more grounded, relational, and expansive way to engage with astrology (and with your life), this conversation offers both clarity and invitation.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

In the end, the question isn’t what you believe, it’s who you become through what you practice.

What does it mean to follow creativity as a path of inquiry?

In this episode, Sarah sits down with writer, curator, and founder of Silver Press, Sarah Shin, for a thoughtful conversation about creativity, intuition, and the role of language in shaping how we understand the world.

Writing as Inquiry: Creativity, Myth, and Language with Sarah Shin

What does it mean to follow creativity as a path of inquiry?

Many of us feel the pull to explore ideas that don’t fit neatly into one category — creativity, intuition, philosophy, spirituality, scholarship. You might wonder: Is it possible to treat creativity not just as expression, but as a way of understanding the world?

The truth is, many artists, writers, and thinkers are already doing exactly that. Creative practice can become a way of asking deeper questions about reality, memory, and meaning.

In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah sits down with writer, curator, and founder of Silver Press, Sarah Shin, to explore how poetry, myth, and symbolic language can open new ways of knowing.

If you enjoy these conversations about creativity, intuition, and imagination, make sure you’re subscribed to the Moon Beaming newsletter for new episodes, reflections, and resources.

At its heart, this conversation reminds us that language is not just a tool for describing reality — it’s also a way of shaping it.

How do you tell the difference between intuition, fear, and the voices of your past?

Many of us want to trust our intuition — but it’s rarely that simple. Old patterns, trauma responses, people-pleasing, anxiety, and our nervous system can all speak loudly inside us. When those voices mix together, it can feel confusing to know what’s actually intuition and what’s something else entirely.

If you’ve ever looked back at a decision and thought “I should have known better,” you’re not alone. Learning to trust your intuition isn’t about always making the “right” choice, it’s about building a relationship with yourself over time.

In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah answers thoughtful questions from the Moon Studio community about intuition, discernment, trauma responses, and the deeper work of learning how to listen to yourself with compassion.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

What happens when intuition leads you all the way to the edge of science?

In this episode, Sarah closes out the Intuition Series with a powerful conversation that lives at the intersection of neuroscience and the unexplainable. She sits down with cognitive neuroscientist and author Mona Sobhani, PhD, to explore what unfolds when a traditionally trained skeptic begins to question the very foundations of a materialist worldview.

After a series of personal experiences she couldn’t easily dismiss — coffee ground readings that came true, psychic encounters, and precognitive dreams — Mona did what scientists are trained to do: she investigated. What began as curiosity turned into years of research into psychic phenomena, reincarnation studies, quantum physics, altered states of consciousness, and competing models of reality.

Together, Sarah and Mona explore the possibility that science and spirituality were never meant to be separate — and that the “unexplainable” may simply be what we haven’t yet learned how to measure.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Meet Mona

Mona Sobhani, Ph.D., is a cognitive neuroscientist, author, and entrepreneur. A former research scientist at the University of Southern California, she holds a doctorate in neuroscience from the University of Southern California and completed a post-doctoral fellowship at Vanderbilt University with the MacArthur Foundation Law and Neuroscience Project. She is the author of the Ommie 2022 Best Spiritual Book Proof of Spiritual Phenomena: A Neuroscientist’s Discovery of the Ineffable Mysteries of the Universe (Park City Press). In the Cosmos, Coffee, & Science Substack, she writes about science & spirituality, the psychedelic renaissance, altered states of consciousness, and the transpersonal. She is co-founder of Exploring Consciousness, a community of curious scientists who are seeking to understand consciousness, spirituality, and the nature of our reality. She also served as a scholar for the Saks Institute for Mental Health Law, Policy, and Ethics. Her work has been featured in the New York Times, VOX, and other media outlets.

When Science Meets The Supernatural

What happens when your scientific training tells you the universe is random and meaningless — but your lived experience says otherwise?

If you’ve ever felt torn between skepticism and spirituality, between logic and intuition, you’re not alone. Many of us were taught that to be intelligent means to dismiss the mystical. So when something unexplainable happens, it can feel disorienting — even destabilizing.

In this episode of Moon Beaming, I sit down with cognitive neuroscientist and author Mona Sobhani, PhD, to explore what unfolds when a rigorously trained skeptic begins questioning the very assumptions she was taught to defend.

After personal experiences she couldn’t ignore — psychic readings that proved accurate, existential crisis, and precognitive dreams — Mona followed her curiosity into research on consciousness, quantum physics, and spiritual phenomena. This conversation offers clarity not by choosing sides, but by widening the lens.

If you’re drawn to conversations at the edge of science and mysticism, make sure you’re subscribed to the Moonbeaming newsletter for deeper reflections, tools, and upcoming events.

In this episode, we explore:

Reality may be far stranger — and far more alive — than we’ve been taught to believe.

What if the reason intuition advice has never worked for you is because it wasn’t designed for your brain?

In this episode, Sarah explores the powerful intersection of intuition and neurodivergence — and why so much mainstream spiritual guidance can feel confusing, inaccessible, or even shaming for people with different nervous systems.

Sarah also shares more about her Intuition Series (Secret Studies), a grounded, trauma-aware, neurodivergence-inclusive approach to developing intuitive skills in a way that feels safe, sustainable, and empowering.

In this episode you’ll hear:

Take a breath. Slow down. Your intuition doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s to be real.

If Intuition Advice Has Never Worked for You & You Are Neurodivergent, Read This

What if the reason intuition advice has never worked for you is because it wasn’t designed for your brain?

Maybe you’ve tried to “just listen to your inner voice,” but you don’t hear one. There is nothing wrong with you.

Most mainstream intuition advice is built for linear, top-down processors. It rarely accounts for the way neurodivergence shapes perception, processing, timing, energy, or pattern recognition.

In this episode of Moonbeaming, (link) I explore intuition through the lens of neurodivergence and nervous system awareness — and why cookie-cutter spiritual advice often misses the people who need nuance the most.

This episode we explore:

If this resonates, this is also the final call to join Secret Studies: The Intuition Series. (link)

This is my grounded, somatics-informed, depth-psychology-rooted container for developing intuitive skill in a way that feels safe and sustainable.

And remember, there is literally nothing wrong with you. Your intuition isn’t broken — it’s just not linear.

What if intuition isn’t one clear voice — but a holographic field of many different kinds of knowing?

In today’s episode, Sarah explores the premise that intuition is not a single sensation or moment of certainty, but a spectrum — fluid, multi-channeled, and deeply alive.

Sarah breaks down two primary forms of intuition: the kind that arrives as calm clarity and recognition, and the kind that shows up as a pull, a compulsion, or an invitation into the unknown. She shares why the second form is often mistaken for anxiety, and how learning to trust uncertainty can be one of the most powerful ways we grow.

This episode is a reframe for anyone who has ever wondered if they’re “doing intuition wrong,” and a reminder that inner knowing doesn’t always lead to comfort — it often leads to expansion, healing, and becoming more fully yourself.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• Why intuition is holographic and comes through many channels
• The difference between certainty intuition and the intuitive pull
• How anxiety can arise in response to uncertainty
• Intuition as a healing GPS and an invitation into growth
• Why intuition doesn’t always lead to ease or comfort
• How trust is built through the unknown
• Learning the unique language of your own inner knowing

--- 

Intuition Isn’t Certainty — It’s a Spectrum

What if intuition isn’t a single clear signal? What if the moments that feel foggy, destabilizing, or even anxiety-producing aren’t signs that you’re disconnected… but signs that something meaningful is unfolding?

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re “doing intuition wrong,” you’re not alone. Many of us have been taught that intuition should feel calm, certain, and reassuring — and when it doesn’t, we assume we’ve failed or misread the signal.

In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah offers a powerful reframe: intuition is holographic. It’s a spectrum. It comes through many channels, shapes, and sensations — and not all of them are comfortable.

If this episode resonates, it’s part of a larger Intuition Series leading into Secret Studies: Intuition — Sarah’s foundational course on learning the unique language of your own inner knowing.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why intuition is holographic and moves through many channels
• The difference between certainty-based intuition and the intuitive pull
• How anxiety often arises in response to uncertainty — not intuition itself
• Intuition as a healing GPS rather than a guarantee of comfort
• Why intuition often leads to growth, not ease
• How trust is built by moving through the unknown
• Learning the unique language of your intuition, rather than copying someone else’s

Intuition isn’t here to give you perfect answers or a neatly wrapped outcome. It’s here to move the plot forward — to expand your capacity, deepen your trust, and guide you toward a more honest version of yourself.
