During this bite-size interview with Warrior Goddesses, Mel and Sarina, we explore how these two humans met at a Warrior Goddess event, fell in love over months of courting, and then learned how to navigate a whole new river of Life together.
This is Part 1 of a series we'll be doing on how they co-parent, partner intimately, and jump naked into the River of Life together. We talk about the wild way they handle challenging decisions when they're both decision-fatigued, the willingness to show up in conflict resolution together, and the wise ways of being in community together and feel wholeheartedly supported.
During this deep dialogue with Banafsheh Sayyad, we explore what it means to commune with the divine, free yourself from the inside out, and let go of the weight of the world's expectations. I ask her about her process of leading people through different forms of sacred dance and being in their bodies. We talk about attending to your body, moving your emotions out, and the transformation that can happen when you show up for yourself committed to all the parts of who you are.

During this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing one of my apprentices and long-time students, Sue Reed, who used to guide folks down rivers. We had a lovely chat about how women river guides do things a bit differently, learning to read the river, and how we can align with the river of life in impeccable ways. Join us as we discuss how to navigate eddies, expect the unexpected, and unlearn old ways of being.
