Sue sits down with Talia Migliaccio, an interdisciplinary artist working with many mediums. She is globally known for her hand-poked tattoo work. She loves working across mediums as well, drawing, ceramics, photography, jewelry and design.

We dig deep into the Scorpionic realms of consciousness intimately discussing the creation process of ALL THINGS. Talia opens up her inner realms of reflection and emotion for us to sit with. Clearly presenting tactful practices around how to become aware of when we are "othering" or separating from source to avoid a solution oriented mindset followed up by right action. Critical discourse is important, but not the final step of integration.

Grief, suffering and letting go are foundational acts that knit community together, and we discuss the structure of more regenerative practices and community organization that needs to emerge.

Talia designed the cover of Sue's book Transitory Nature, and through this creation process together they formed a collaborative relationship. The conversation trends into the realms of "social media" as a consciousness shaping vehicle for late stage capitalism and what does it really mean to create nowadays? And how much does the public venue we share our work within affect the ways we intimately create ART and seek PURPOSE.

Alyssa Troob back on the pod this week with Sue. Alyssa a Human Design Practitioner, and Sue and Astrologer dive deep into a conversation around all things SEX ENERGY.

What is it?

How do we cultivate it?

How do we circulate it?

How do we avoid burnout? In creative entrupenurial positions and cultivate clarity around how/when sex energy is shared! Alyssa openly speaks from her personal experience and her work with human design clients. This is an incredible conversation if you are ready to become more sensitive on how you run energy within your own system. And within the sticky times of bumping up against social, professional or political expectations of over-giving or over-sharing. We both share our personal experience around our bodies at young ages and how we intuitively opened the exploration of sex energy in many manifest forms.

We would love to hear from you! Share this episode if it speaks to you, and we are always open to feedback and critical discourse.

"I have poured my existence into the science & art of Nourishment. I have 5 years of academic & in-the-field training, compounded with 6 years of my  private practice, as a RDN, where I have & still work one-on-one with nourishment clients." - Alyssa

Ok let's actually go there, let's talk about the backhanded misogyny of the Polarity Movement. It is also labeled "embodiment, yogic intimacy, relationship coaching or sexual polarity". You will see coaches in this space often term things Masculine/Feminine Energetics. Dan and I get pretty heated in this conversation, pulling direct quotes from talks given by polarity coaches and experts. We discuss cissexim, gender essentialism, and the hierarchical need to "gender" everything, and how that truly keeps the human consciousness in a cage of labels.

We touch on Transitory Nature's Chapter three, Body as Vehicle, and the new age spiritual platitudinal myths around "dual identity" "Wild Woman" "Sensitive Men", exploring the implicit bias that is the subtext of the polarity movement.

Sue and Dan get VERY PERSONAL in this episode.

We discuss the Masculine/Feminine Binary, the Maiden/Mother Binary, gender roles and power dynamics in relationships when deciding to have children or not have children. We know this is a triggering topic, discussing identity and being able to hold multiple choices with respect in your embodiment. We both open our hearts about pressures from family, society, and previous partners about "having kids" and ways we coped with that solo and together. This transparent conversation is about how to create more holistic and safe spaces about making choices that are against the grain of status-quo. Particularly at the intersection of creation, family units, sexualitity, gender expression and power dynamics; it can get messy and we are not claiming to have all of the answers. We decided to open some of our private conversations between each other on the podcast this week and really go for it around making the choice to not have children.

We are open to questions, responses and your thoughts around this topic.

Bess was one of Sue's editors on Transitory Nature, and over the last year they developed a deep friendship. Bess and Sue dive into ALL THINGS ASTROLOGY together for the remainder of 2021 in this episode. We discuss Bess's book on Virgo & Leo, as well as her current creative and writing projects. Bess is also the narrator of the Audible version of Transitory Nature. "I loved working with Bess over the last year and deeply respect her voice, work and creations out in the world." says Sue. This is an Ep. you might listen back to several times exploring transits, eclipses and all 12 signs of the zodiac and the planetary currents for the rest of 2021. Enjoy! HAPPY CANCER NEW MOON!

About Bess:

"As a fierce, fiery youth (Aries stellium + Leo Moon), I spent the time I wasn’t dancing in leopard print leotards or running around my neighborhood shirtless, speaking about all things mystical into my tape recorder for my closet cosmic radio show, and writing what I called “lipstick horoscopes” for an imaginary trapper keeper-bound mag called Teen Talk.

I’d first discovered the mystical language of archetypes at age 10, in the glossy, full-color pages of DK’s classic Parkers’ Astrology volume. These pages detailed not only each zodiac sign’s energetic and psychological components, but where you could find these energies in the material world. I reveled in my Aries Sun sign and its associations with everything from the pungency of cayenne pepper to the rough and ready streets of Marseilles, France.

As I completed a PhD and finished up the final throes of my Saturn Return, everything came undone. In the words of my beloved tarot teacher, Lindsay Mack, it was a “sub-basement Tower moment.” Broken down and bottomed out, I nearly left the planet. And in that pitch black of 2013-2014, the stars were my headlamp. I returned to the mystical world and its cavernous capacity to beckon us closer to our complete carnality, as I reckoned with what lived inside of me. I learned to look it in the eye, to lick its skin, and to love it, no matter the cost.

My work bloomed into everything from tarot dance classes to birth chart fragrance making. I slowly crawled back up to the surface of my own existence and built a career out of my belief that star-kissed synesthesia can bring us back to the selves we already are and are always becoming, as close and vital as a makeup case or dinner plate.

I love with ferocity and tenderness and I can’t stop, won’t stop. I cry easily and hard. I’m scared of flying and don’t ever want to die." + Bess Matassa

Sue sits down with Alyssa Troob to talk about all things TRANSPARENCY in new age healing spaces. We traverse the topics of Astrology, Human Design, consumption/nourishment and a bit about our passions for rock climbing. This is a very fluid conversation, intimate and real about ethics as we hold space for another's transformation. A large portion of our conversation trends around "social media avatars" and constantly being sold too on social media in the wellness space. As well as Body Image, pain and suffering  within our matriarchal lines around socialization in a "female body".

Alyssa has a life-long study committed to the art + science of Nourishment. As a holistic Registered Dietitian Nutritionist + Certified Human Design Analyst she has worked with hundreds of humans all over the world to guide them through the Avenues of their unique Nourishment.  How Alyssa teaches nourishment is born from interconnectedness. After all, we do not eat in a vacuum. Nourishment is all-encompassing & is unique to each of us. Because of this, Alyssa uses the system of Human Design to illuminate behavioral patterning, along with nutritional biochemistry & lifestyle modifications to ensure that all variables are accounted for. Since 2015, Alyssa has been working one on one with clients, guiding them through the Avenues of Nourishment.
