  • The Blindfolded Archer Takes a Chance as We Transition to a New Year

    S2E7: Sharing news on big changes and exploring the decision making process when you can’t see the vision.  Naming the unknown trust that some call faith. With these changes I talk a bit about what it feels like when your community names you, honoring the pacing of this Winter's Solstice, and sharing my wishes for the New Year.

  • The Fatal Delusion of Independence

    S2E6: In this episode we continue the conversation on Uncertainty and take a stand for Interconnectedness.

    For many BIPOC, living in uncertainty is nothing new, as living in perpetual uncertainty has been a baseline.

    What has always been true and what we can’t escape (cause and effect), is increasingly evident. In the midst of it all, the Western delusion of Independence is trying to die, and we are witnessing its death throes.
