I share my 2024 self-reinvention, what Sacral Transformations and Divine Dark mean to me, and how I got back my lost Joy Soul Part.

The Wailing Circle at Braided Root Waters Healing Sanctuary embodies the Vulture Medicine of “gathering together in a Circle to uncover the Truth and renew Life by picking the flesh from the bones.” My bone-deep desire for this Truth and Renewal was born of Walking with my own Mother’s Death in May of 2022.

I learned my Divine Purpose, what I was given to call “The Work of My Spirit,” when Mother Earth and the three Indigenous Grandfather Spirits of Braided Root Waters come into my life. The youngest Grandfather becomes my first Spirit Lover and the child he seeds in me, that I give birth to, is my path of Shamanic Healing.

I met Mr. Catalyst at the 2023 Spring Equinox Circle at Braided Root Waters Healing Sanctuary. What followed was full-scale Chaos of my life-long ideas about love, relationship, and my own heterosexuality, which led to my finding emotionally, physically, and Spiritually fulfilling love with a woman and the embracing of my bisexuality.

I share more of my Why for doing this podcast, more of the backstory of my life, and how a Shamanic Soul Retrieval in 2016 brought back to me my Voice and gave me the ability to be and feel effective in the world.

I share two of my very first Shamanic Journeys from the workshop I took in January of 2016, Fundamentals of Shamanism with Bekki Shining Bearheart. This is when I learned to Shamanic Journey and I found that which I had been seeking all my life, even though I didn’t know I was searching…

Since February of 2023 I’ve been in one of the most significant periods of healing and transformation since I began this path in 2016. I share the details of a few very powerful Shamanic Journeys: Embarking on deepening my connection with the Goddess Kali Ma. Healing the patriarchal sexual trauma in my body by meeting the Self-Judge/ Self-Hater within. And retrieving the Soul Part I lost in the moment of my birth, which was the moment my life was stamped by fear.

On a wave of inspiration I recorded this first 20 minute episode by the flowing waters of Taughannock Creek. I begin to share my Journey from a small life stamped by fear to the life of meaning and purpose I live now, thanks to the path of healing, growth, and transformation that is available to all who learn to Shamanic Journey.
