The Sandbox

Capricorn-rising KP Kaszubowski is a poet, filmmaker, and astrologer. In this episode she talks about how writing connected her to her body and how she discovered astrology as a powerful meaning-making practice she feels called to use with solemnity and ethical consideration. KP shares a lyrical essay she wrote and gives us all a sneak peak into her current work. We discuss what a punk-rock approach to astrology means and the grit to be found in gratitude.

Astrologer and women's circle facilitator Peggy Foster lights up the podcast with an engaging conversation on what it means to be kind to oneself. In her work as a television reporter, radio personality, voice-over artist, worker bee in corporate America, and now astrologer, she's gleaned a lot of life gems about simplifying and showing up as one's authentic self through art, creativity, and community. To check out her astrology offerings (including book club) or to attend her in-person Virgo Bootcamp, head over to www.peggyfosterastrology.com.

Nancy Illman revisits the Sandbox to talk about her memoir, Instigator of Joy: Becoming My Own Fairy Godmother, available for pre-order soon at www.nancyillman.com.  In this interview Nancy talks how she was able to write a book despite her ADHD and why she believes the pay-off to be found in excavating and sharing one’s story is worth navigating the challenges.

Enneagram 4 Danielle Park talks about why tarot is such an important practice for her, how she addresses card reversals in a reading, and how to cope with anxiety. To close out the episode, Danielle also does a card pull for the listeners to answer the question, “How can we, as a collective, grow our capacity to meet what’s next?”

One of my favorite soundbites from this episode, “There is so much help.”

(Suggestion: Play at 1.5x speed or faster.) April Dawn is a 3/5 Splenic Projector, Enneagram 1, dream interpreter, Life Path 7. In this episode she explores several topics, including the premise that something can't be both a "should" and a "want to." Here's celebrating Pluto's entrance into Aquarius... (where incidentally April's South Node and IC are...this should be juicy!).
