Ewa is the inspiration for the "Magic" card in the new SHE Sirens oracle deck. In her own words: "I wake up every morning to teach people about how to be, live and work at their highest potential, fully and unapologetically, using their unique gifts and talents to serve others. I help them remember their magic. During daytime I am called a leader, a business teacher, a coach, a keynote speaker, an author. After the sun sets I am better known as an intuitive, a channel, an Akashic Records reader. In essence I am a beam of light. As we all are. You can see it in my eyes. I can see it in yours. You will find my day-time magic here and my moon-time magic here."

Blessed to know + love Ewa as a friend + sister in the world + I had a really beautiful conversation with her all about sharing our magic and telling our truth...even when it scares you.ESPECIALLY WHEN IT SCARES YOU.

Some of the things we talk about include:

✨ Recognising the magic in our everyday realities

✨ The fear and embarrassment that accompanies Ewa sharing her magic and why she has to do it anyway

✨ Finding the courage to share her truth no matter what

  ✨ The magnetism of truth telling

✨ What it looks like for Ewa to bring her divine feminine truth telling into traditionally masculine, corporate spaces

✨ Reprogramming your mind and creating an inner culture based on the ideas and beliefs you resonate with

✨ Being discerning with the frequencies we tune into

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"The siren song, it doesn't conform with the norms. It doesn't conform with the culture. It does conform with the nature and with SHE. And that's so scary!"

"I believe in truth. I believe in this from the belly wisdom, as you say, from the belly truth...as in the Pythoness oracle of yours. The from the belly truth. And I believe that it's worth every sacrifice. Because I feel that it is sacrifice. It's sacrifice because I am sacrificing my ego every time. But I do believe in truth. And I would say, that I get inspired, I've been inspired all my life by people like you. By people like you, like Martha Beck, like Elizabeth Gilbert, and all those beautiful goddesses who are willing to be vulnerable, to go out there, and speak the truth."

"Respect comes from Latin word 'specto,' 'to see. To perceive.’ 'Re' means to see again. To respect someone means to see them again."

"So I program myself, I create an inner culture if you will [Oh I love that!]. Yeah. Based on the voices of people with whom I do resonate."

"It's nothing external. It's not even the crystals that I love so much. It's not even the herbs. We are the ingredients."

"I believe we can't do magic alone. Even when I'm in Warsaw, I'm with you. I'm with you and I'm with other sisters, connected with this grid of love. We can't do magic alone. We have to be together. This is what I believe. And then it feels that our bellies are connected, not only hearts, our bellies."

If you already have your deck, PLEASE share + tag me on social media using #shesirensoracle so I can share the love + know that I’m hosting an Oracle attunement in a few weeks time (I’ll post the deets next week!) where we can gather together + tune into the medicine of the SHE SIRENS (+ eat chocolate + celebrate, obvz.)

A few things I talk about include:

✨ Tuning out of “small screen” vision, into the inherent, all-seeing capacity we all hold

✨ How the way we show up in the world can change when we act from a place of inner knowing

✨ How ‘inner sight’ was cultivated in my particular family

✨ My call back to ancient temple practices and why I share some of these in my new book, Self Source-ery

✨ Why these times require us to ‘see in the dark’ to help create what comes next

A few juicy nuggets that came up:

"The hypnosis no longer has the same effect on you...thank goodness for that! And you can see clearly now. You've always been able to but it's just that sometimes, inevitably, living in this world, you forget. And now you're able to trust your vision. Let it land in your heart. And it's here that you claim your power. You dare to take up space and lead in your own unique-to-you way."

"And from that place you do show up differently because you see and you know. And when you see and you know, you trust yourself. You trust your vision. You trust your knowing. And your presence, well that becomes your power. You can see what's going on. You can see between the words that are spoken and hear what's not being said. You know when you're being lied to and you know when you meet real."

"And if you are someone who bleeds it really might be worth noticing where you're at in your cycle. If this card comes up for you or if this conversation resonates with you, to recognize the all-seing experience in each phase."

"Now this all-seeing kind of concept...I call it a concept but it's a real, tangible skill set. It's a gift. It's a talent. It's an art. And it can be hella magical and trippy and it can span lifetimes and timelines. It's quite the ride."

"And to be clear, when I talk about cultivating our own inner sight, our own ability to see it all, I'm not suggesting that means we know it all. Although, we all know way more than we've been told we do. We simply need to remember. It just means that we're much more able to practice discernment."

"Look, we don't have to agree on everything. Far, far from it. But in our hearts, and in our wombs if we have them, we have to know that we can see in the dark. And yes, these times? They might feel a little too dark. Yet, it's in the void of no-thing that anything is possible."

Lisa’s new book Self Source-ery is available now from your favourite booksellers.

Today I’m joined in our SOURCE-ED SESSION by the Creatrix, Caro Gomez.

Caro, is passionate about us all connecting with our divine feminine power through ancestral wisdom - what she calls BIG BUSH ENERGY.  She's a modern day shaman and queen of vulva fashion and ceremonial gowns, one of which I am BEYOND blessed to own + it’s bloody glorious! We met through out mutual appreciation of our vulvas + making vulva art - come join us as we pull a SHE oracle card + riff together on what comes up!

Website | Instagram

Some of the things we talk about include:

✨ Caro's philosophies of "big bush energy" and "viva la vulva!"

✨ The myths we're taught about creativity and uncovering our own innate creativity

✨ Why Caro refers to herself as "the joy witch"

✨ Embracing the fullest expression of your joy

✨ How adornment can help express the full spectrum of who we are

✨ The power of creative collaborations and women supporting women

✨ Understanding the value of creativity and art and the love and magic that goes into it

✨ The prophecy of the Eagle and the Condor

✨ Connecting with our ancestors and carrying the threads that they passed on to us

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"We go through our life unaware of our power. Unaware that our bleed is part of our superpower. And we say things like 'Uh I wish I'd never had it! What a pain! Why do we need to have this stuff come every month?' And to me, that is such an offense to our divinity."

"It is a call to say to all of you out there, to rebuild our relationship with ourselves. With our heart, with our soul, with our spirit, with our creativity."

"It's funny because I think in someone like me who speaks of joy and uses kind of joy as an act of revolution, it's like 'Oh does that mean that you're then saying that everything is happy and everything is positive? [Lisa: Right, or that you're spiritually bypassing all the horror in the world?]  Yeah, yeah, exactly. And actually, on the very contrary. I'm kind of saying, 'Can you dare to tap into your inner joy even with all the shit that goes on in your life and in the world and in society?' [Lisa: As well as. Can you hold it all? Yeah, absolutely.] Yeah. Both and then some."

"It's about that expression of physical adornment that then goes into the deeper layers of who we are, right? Like this is the physicality: the nails, the earrings, the patterns, the colours. Like that is such a powerful, visual part of your identity."

"There is this beautiful story that says a grandma says to their granddaughter, you know when you work with your hands you transmute any pain, any tears, any sorrow into magic. Because it's like a channel that allows that to come through and I think that's what creativity does for us, you know, for the world, you know. Those who make it and those who receive it, right? Because it's like a two-way street."

Today I’m joined in our SOURCE-ED SESSION by the intuitive powerhouse, Krystie Ann, also known as @TheWanderinglioness 

She’s a fierce cosmic, witchy woman who loves to spread magick + since our very first convo, it’s clear that she + I have done MANY lifetimes together.

Rooted in ancestral healing, body liberation, + multifaceted creative expression, Krystie Ann will help you to tap + step into your true divine essence. She also has an amazing podcast, Connected in the Den which I’m  super-blessed to have been a guest on - come join us as we pull a SHE oracle card + riff together on what comes up!

Website | Connected in the Den podcast | Instagram

Some of the things we talk about include:

✨ Navigating expression on social media in an authentic way

✨ Tuning into the difference between anxiety and intuition

✨ How stillness enhances our intuitive capacities

✨ The relationship between our cycles and our psychic powers and how charting can enhance these abilities

✨ The connection between magic and creative expression

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"However I can show up, however I can be, I don't think I could exist if I couldn't be creative so for me, that's my magic."

"If someone's performative... it's something that has to ring true for you, the person who is consuming the content. This is where we have to be getting our vessel and our antenna in tune. Is this resonating with me? Am I feeling this in my heart? Or, am I feeling it in other parts of my body? My gut? Or just that ick factor. If I get even a little smidge of that....mmmm... And then I question, 'Why am I feeling this way?' I'll kind of creep a little bit...what other content are they sharing? I think it's definitely if something resonates with you. I'm only speaking from personal experience and what rings true but it's definitely a heart connection for me. If I'm not feeling it in the heart then I'm feeling that there's some inauthenticity there."

"So many of us in this collective, in this community are empathic and highly sensitive and with that tends to come some anxiety because we tend to take in so much, right? So first and foremost for me was how I was taking in energy and not being so tuned outwards and trying to clear my station, I guess. I like to look at it like a radio station and my station needs to be in tune. I don't want to pick up any of the static. But I like to keep my station clear and then if I'm out or if I'm social or when I'm with a client my dial's tuned outwards so I can pick up what they're feeling. But with intuition you want your dial to be tuned inwards. So it was really programming myself to know the difference between out and in."

"Anxious thoughts or anxious hits are repetitive, whereas intuitive hits that's it. It comes in quick. And so you have to learn how your intuition speaks to you because your intuition is speaking to you all day. All damn day. Whereas anxiety is sort of like a repetitive loop. It'll enter in and then disappear. And then that same anxious thought will disappear. So for me, I had to learn to identify the patterns between the two and then when I was able to do that it was really easy to be like, 'That's an anxious thought; I don't want that.' You know?"

"Once you start to make it a habit of becoming quiet it becomes very easy and you will definitely notice when your powers, I say, enhance."

"Especially too because my cycle isn't the same. It's always changing. So it's important for me to track. And even if I'm not everyday, I'm always making little notes here and there. It is important I think, or it was for me I should say, it was very important for me to start to track. Going back to how I can show up for people because I would see okay, there's a couple of days where I need some rest so I'm just going to moonwalk out of social media for a couple of days and stay a little quiet and pop back in once I've boosted myself up a little bit. And so it's like honouring myself more and listening to myself more. But tracking was very, very important for me."

Today I’m joined in our SOURCE-ED SESSION by the glorious + creative Eset Rose, who is…well, she’s many things…A multidimensional artist, an intuitive strategist, AND…a transformational healer who advises some of the top talent of our time. For 20 years, she operated as a Creative Business Partner and trusted advisor to Grammy-winning recording artist Alicia Keys. She’s also a fierce powerhouse of a singer + performer in her own right, as well as a mumma, a programming consultant at Kripalu + a woman I get to call my friend - we met through our mutual friend, Guru Jagat, who sadly left her body in summer 2021 + who we could NOT not mention in our convo together. Come join us as we pull a SHE oracle card + riff together on what comes up!

Some of the things we talk about include:

 ✨ The role that our personal evolution plays in the evolution of others and the world

✨ The connection we all have to infinite universal wisdom

 ✨ Using art as a means for making visible the limitless possibilities that are available to us as humans

 ✨ How moving away from separateness opens up access to joy and play and pleasure

 ✨ Discovering what joy feels like for you and what brings you joy

✨ Eset's initiations into the path of the priestess

 ✨ The power of sound in creating what comes next

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"I was doing a session with someone yesterday and they were saying how they see themselves as a bridge. And they're embarking on the next phase of their journey. They're younger; they're just heading into their Saturn Return. And they're like, 'But I'm afraid that if I, you know, go further, that I won't...like, I'll be unrelatable. I won't be able to take their hand and help them cross the bridge.' And I was like, 'Oh honey, that's not your job. Your job is to be the bridge.' Because if you're standing on this side of the bank and there's no bridge to get to the other side, people are just like, 'I can't get there.' But if you become the bridge they're like, 'Oh, there's a way to get there.' Because you are the bridge. We just get to be the embodiment of, the living evidence of, and that's enough."

"I've had so many bridges, so many incredible, beautiful teachers who are known and who are unknown. And I think the ones who meant the most to me are the ones who kept directing me towards my own inner knowing."

"Through art we can take these things that are ineffable but that we all feel connected to and bring them to life and create a possibility of something. And so the more beauty and joy and pleasure and resource that we can start to bring through into this timeline the more people are like 'Oh! That's a possibility! I can choose that?' Because again there's this idea that we've got to suffer. It's not easy but we can have ease."

"Some of my biggest bridge builders were the ones who were like, 'Talk to the trees. And oh by the way, you're the same thing.' Who just kept taking away the idea of the separation and helping me understand that I am you and you are me and I am all these things around me and that I can be in this really deep dialogue with anything because it is me and we're all sharing the same intelligence. And my body and the intelligence of my body. And then all of a sudden these other worlds open up. These other dimensions open up. And you're like 'oooooh.' And then we can start to have more fun here."

"Right on the floor there's a piece of paper that says 'modern day priestess.' And it was my first time seeing this word; I was 26-years old. And it just like...from my toes all the way up to my head it was like 'whoosh!' And I was like 'I am that.' I just had this immediate, full bodied remembrance."

"You've got to take care of yourself. That's part of it. You've got to drink your water, you've got to eat well, you've got to sleep. You've gotta do what you've gotta do because we need the energy. And we don't have to suffer. There will be pain and there will be hard things and then how do you let that expand you into more love? More freedom. More energy. And keep going in joy. In pleasure. In play."

Lisa’s new book Self Source-ery is available now from your favourite booksellers.

Today I’m joined in THE SOURCE-ED SESSIONS by the gorgeous + super-talented Sarah Jayne Dunn.

She’s an actress, a mumma, a wife, an advocate for health and fitness + she + I met on insta when Sarah shared her love for the book, Witch.

I instantly fell for her over a super-smart post that she shared in response to someone’s thoroughly boring + very out-dated comment about her being a 40 year old woman who dares to share and celebrate her body online - I KNOW, right?!!I’m totally obsessed with her defiant celebration of ALL that she is - come join us as we pull a SHE oracle card + riff together on what comes up!

Insta: @sarahjaynedunn

Some of the things we talk about include:

✨ Sarah's acting career and how it conditioned her to put other people in charge of  many of her life choices

✨ How looking for more autonomy and agency led her to create an OnlyFans account, and the controversy this led to

✨ Why industry norms in film & television impact the ways in which women view themselves, in particular the erasure of older women

✨ Social media's censorship of women's bodies and why this needs to change

✨ How viewing our sexuality through the lens of shame or "taboo" censors our very humanness

✨ What Sarah would go back and tell her younger self

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"It's brilliant. It's a much safer site for the users and the creators. Someone slides into my DMs on Only Fans and sends me a picture it's pixelated, so I have to choose to open that picture. So I'm not getting a horrible photo or an abusive message or anything. I can block a user and then they're shut down immediately. They can't then create another account. So much safer for me. I feel much safer on there. And I genuinely feel like the people who follow me on there because they're paying a subscription, why would they pay that and then come on and give me abuse. They're genuine supporters. And people who go on there and expect me to be doing porn, which I am not, very soon leave and go, 'Oh you don't do that then? You don't show that then?' And I'm like, 'No, you've come to the wrong place.' But they can just leave. It's fine."

"Why is it now that I'm, by some people, being judged and put down because I've now taken back that. It's my body. And I'm going, I don't want to edit my pictures. I don't want to be airbrushed my body. I might air brush out a bruise or a scratch from the dog or something. But I'm not going essentially move my belly button and my torso and make my boobs all pointy and do weird things to my body. That other people have done and decided."

"You've got all these younger women and men going, 'Well that's what I need to look like and clearly that's perfect.' But the pictures you're looking at aren't even perfect. They're not real.""Because of everything that happened, it opened up that door to go, 'Well I'm going to say these things out loud that people have stopped me saying out loud before.' I could never have said 'sex' before unless it was on their terms."

"You know, you want to live your life to the full. You want to do what makes you happy. And why should you be judged for something that alright someone else might go, 'That's not for me.' Alright well it's not for you, but it's for me.""Still the majority of my followers are still women on Instagram. And a lot of them are just like, 'Oh my god, this is awesome! And just keep shouting like you're shouting and blazing a trail and you know, stick to what you're doing.' So for every hater that you get on there you sort of get ten or twenty people who are like, 'Just tell them to go fuck themselves and crack on with what you're doing.' Because you're doing it for yourself and for the majority."

Lisa’s new book Self Source-ery will be released on 22 November 22. You can pre-order it from your favourite bookseller now.

Ayesha’s website | Instagram

Some of the things we talk about include:

✨ The cycle of rebirth that happens through the process of forgetting and then remembering who we really are

✨  The connection between our sexual energy and creative energy, and staying open to that energetic flow

✨ The difference between reactive rebellion and heart-centered, responsive rebellion

✨ Waking up and inviting in joy through connection to our inner child, and the medicine this offers to our creativity

✨ Putting the freak in 'frequency' and how we actually work with this medicine, rather than getting caught up in the buzz word

✨ Taking radical self-responsibility for our own growth and development

✨ The power in feeling strongly while holding loosely

✨ The dangers of dogmatic spirituality that keeps our hearts closed off

Here are a few quotable moments that I BLOODY loved from our chat:

"I relate to the journey of forgetting and then remembering and then forgetting. It's almost like we're rebirthing ourselves through all of these times where we forget who we are."

"The modern culture is all about hustle, hustle, hustle. I'm going to create something for myself where I don't have to run out of the door at 9am. Slowing down and living cyclically is a rebellion. Rebellion doesn't necessarily have to look like using force, but it can just but it can just be like, 'I'm going to do things the way I'm being asked to do them from a deeper place.'"

"All pain is just stagnation. It's like, 'I've carried these thoughts and ideas too long. I've kept my body in this shape too long. And I'm starting to feel the effects of it.' So now for me, it's like" 'Is it heavy? Is it light?' I don't need the density."

"I still have people in my feed where I'm like, 'Oh that's not exactly how I feel but there's something for me here. There's something for me to learn.' So I haven't turned my life into this echo chamber where everyone's like, 'Yeah! Exactly what you said!' Like no challenging at all. That's not how we grow. That's how we stagnate. We have to keep opening our hearts to things that aren't for us and we don't understand to keep connected to something pure, I feel like."

"If your spirituality is making you rigid, unable to be in the room with people who don't believe the same way as you then it's all wrong. Your breathwork is not working!"

"But the rebellion of the heart is what is able to move us forward out of all of this chaos into more beauty, into more love, into more compassion, into more truth. Into more ability for us all to coexist."

Lisa’s new book Self Source-ery will be released on 22 November 22. You can preorder it from your favourite bookseller now.
