On the Enchanted Earth Podcast, host Maureen welcomes Amanda Walsh, founder of Astrology Hub and author of Life by the Stars, to explore astrology as a grounded, nature-based mirror of our inner lives. Amanda shares how realizing the stars and planets are part of nature reflects our connection to self, and how moving from Manhattan to Hawaii forced her to face both external wilderness and her own. She recounts a pivotal moment with her young daughter that sparked leaving an 80-hour workweek life and beginning a difficult but transformative journey. Together they discuss the collective “messy middle,” the accelerating pace of change, contributing in meaningful ways, and focusing on strengths and beauty to alchemize challenges.
