Perspective with Viv

Ep. 125. In this soulful and deeply introspective episode, we dive into the theme of Rebirth, exploring the powerful concept of Ego Death and its role in transformation. Together with Laura, we discuss the art of living and dying clean, the wisdom of past life regressions, and how our wounds—like those symbolized by Chiron, the Wounded Healer—hold the key to profound growth.

From shadow work to embodiment and healing, we unpack the beauty of acceptance and what it truly means to surrender to change. Laura shares a deeply personal experience with death and the perspective shift it brought, offering a raw and enlightening take on what it means to die before you die—and why it's the gateway to true rebirth.
