Welcome to Voice Nodes :)

This share is personal and filled with rage, but delivered concisely and without aggression. It is definitely worth a lesson for anyone who has been invited into a "social economy" by a friend or family member; otherwise known as a pyramid scheme.

I have recently been presented with an invitation to one and it took me to a very dark place in the questioning of my beliefs and practices. This particular one cultivates a community of wellness/intuitive female practitioners looking to launch themselves in the space. I go into my own experiences with this type of capitalist corruption and I reiterate the importance of questioning whether something demanding our attention is upholding the patriarchal structure of a triangle or offering solutions to reform our current system into a matriarchal circle. I have shared about this extensively on Instagram, see links below, and I really want to invite listeners into sharing their own experience with this type of energy. I believe it was healing for me to share and that there will be healing for others too.

CORRECTION: I also wanted to revisit something I was incorrect about in the share. The partial word "archy" does not directly mean oppression or hierarchy, but rather means "to rule, govern, lead, or chief". Therefore, patriarchy is "a system of society or government in which the father or eldest male is the ruler (governer/leader/chief).

In it, I explore:

Oh boy! I really had a doozy with my intuition over whether or not I should share this recording. As I mentioned in Episode 4: Can't Go Over It, Can't Go Under It I really felt the need to do a retake and tap more into my feelings after recording this share. Get embodied and share from my face, because that's where I was feeling the energy percolating. I did a take two, was feeling it and then that night I felt compelled to take action on something I shared in this episode. The audio share that I thought would never live, but now it needs to! It needs to because next share I will have a guest who I don't know but I sense an encounter of sorts is needed, via our voices. I am most excited, but more importantly, today here is what I was avoiding sharing in the audio share I am now bringing to the light:

This time when I went to record a Voice Nodes share and I was preparing to upload it, I got the message that I avoided my feelings. So I did take two. In this audio share, I express what’s weighing on me today. I woke up with some heavy existential questions and really wondered who I am “supposed” to be, in the eyes of destiny’s plan. With less navigation and flow this is my imperfect reflection of today. In it, it includes:

As an added bonus I've included the childhood jingle I referenced and named today's episode after:

I knew from a meeting with the spirit of Voice Nodes, a drapey goddess of Kuan Yin colours and energy that I would be talking about my struggles to actualise my dream of moving to Portobello Beach in Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. I had HUGE reluctance because I hate repeating myself and I am tired of justifying why I have not taken action on a goal that is seemingly easy to accomplish. This share deep dives the Dark Nights of our lives that offer us the opportunity to cultivate new patterns and new outcomes through the process of confronting old behaviours.

The theme and message of this audio share is not rob ourselves of the opportunity and instead shares the experience of dwelling in it a little longer. If you stay in the dark long enough you'll acquire the eyes to see in it. Therefore, I explore:

Welcome to Voice Nodes :)

After last week, it became abundantly clear that this share is not what about what I have gone through, or passing along experiential knowledge, but rather a shared experience of the now. From today onwards this journey is a present invitation to explore and make space for what is needed now. In thought, I realised to give word to past experiences is to live in the past and to fuel imposter syndrome through a means of proving. So join me, in this share and from here on out where I am venturing forward by starting exactly where I am. Unscripted and unaware of where this path will take us.

In this share I arrive before my laptop without a plan, objective, or subject matter - but simply come as I am. This is the theme and message of the audio share. In it, I explore:

My favourite part in creating this vocal share is to spark dialogue, so please share with me your thoughts. Additionally I am working on my intro, outro, and accompanying sounds, so if this is your gift, please let me know what's working and not working.

Welcome to my first share of VOICE NODES!!!

In this episode I step into my shadow as public speaker by launching this podcast. I talk a little bit about my approach and beliefs around starting this, and spend much of our time together deep diving my own personal journey with my throat. I found myself wanting to share so much about the chakras, colour meanings and the elements, how this shows up in intimacy, and many other tangents I could have went off in but instead I tried my best to stick to my past.

I am a little self conscious of the length, but most importantly I'm proud I'm putting it out there. Please let me know what you think and I'm excited to hear about other people's experiences with a particularly sensitive and most likely intuitive body part.
