12. The Sister Wound and the Sacred with Natalie Rose Silva

mercredi 14 octobre 2026 • Durée 01:08:22

Natalie Rose Silva is a ceremonialist and perfumer based in Santa Rosa, California, and a single mother raising her son, Sonny. She is the founder of Godseye Oils, a handcrafted ceremonial botanical perfume and body care brand that is evolving into a deeper practice of prayer — one-on-one scent healing sessions and full customization for each person who comes to her. She co-founded Made of Stars with her sister Erika, and together they are launching Sister School this November, a training devoted to healing the sister wound and building a new world. Natalie has facilitated ceremony since 2017, is the lead singer of a heavy metal cover band in Northern California, and carries Portuguese island and Welsh/Celtic ancestry as a third-generation Oakland native.

Natalie lost her mother, and that grief eventually blossomed into her perfume brand. In this conversation we talk about beauty made from loss, the rooms of women that changed her life, navigating ADHD, and how it feels to stop masking and let yourself be fully seen.

We also get into the pipeline nobody expected, from pole dancing classes to medicine ceremonies, and how sacred sisterhood became the center of everything. Plus channeled small-batch scents, the great gift of perimenopause burning away the mask, and the prayer for deep love.

A small heads-up: this episode briefly mentions suicide and sexual assault.

11. Living While Dying with Darlene Cordero

mercredi 7 octobre 2026 • Durée 49:27

Living While Dying: Conversations with Darlene Cordero

Darlene Cordero was seven months into her own business when she was diagnosed with stage four breast cancer. Three and a half years later, she calls it the thing that clarified her, not the thing that broke her.

In this conversation, Darlene shares what it means to arrive home to yourself after a lifetime of looking everywhere else. We talk about the difference between self love as a practice and self love as a hashtag, what it actually takes to meet yourself with compassion when you’ve spent years performing for everyone around you. She opens up about learning to ask for help after a lifetime of being the capable one, the single mother, the woman who never wanted anyone to feel sorry for her.

We also get into the work she’s building now: death doula trainings, a gentle guide to end of life planning, and her living memorial, a celebration of her life held while she’s still in it. Darlene is heading to Cambridge for a master’s in social innovation, studying how communities can better care for people living with long term illness. She’s writing about all of it on her Substack, The Art of Living and Dying.

This is a conversation about mortality, but more than that, it’s about what becomes possible when you stop running from it.

Find Darlene at @meetdarlene and at The Art of Living and Dying.

10. Speaking to the spirit of money with Isha Vela

mercredi 30 septembre 2026 • Durée 50:14

What if money isn't what they told you it is? This week, I'm joined by Isha Vela, a psychologist, financial strategist, and founder of the Wealth Ecology Institute, to talk about what it means to have a relationship with money.

Not a spreadsheet relationship, but a real one. Isha describes her relationship with the spirit of money as polyamorous, it wants to move, to touch lots of people, to be in circulation. We get into her journey from burnout and divorce to building a trauma-informed financial brokerage, the ancestral technology of rotating savings circles, why a satisfied woman is ungovernable, and the six patriarchal stories (the LIVIDS) that keep us small. We also talk about her ancestors, who told her: We had to bury the knowledge so you could speak it. This one will change how you think about money, community, and what you're worth.

9. Can We Just Be Human Together? With Flora Bowley

mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 45:36

In this episode I talk with Flora Bowley, a painter, teacher, and author who has been teaching her intuitive painting process for over 16 years. She’s written multiple books including Brave Intuitive Painting, The Art of Aliveness, and Fresh Paint, and co-owns a 20-acre retreat center an hour outside of Portland, Oregon. As we’re recording this, she’s about to get in her Toyota and drive cross-country on what she’s calling the Creative Revolution Tour: one-day workshops in cities across the country, because she believes we need to be in rooms together right now more than ever.

We talk about creativity as a birthright, what happens when the dream arrives and you realize you’re lonely, how teaching forced her to understand her own process, and the delicate balance between creative practice and creative business. We also get into finding your own voice when you’ve been inspired by someone else’s, buying a 20-acre retreat center during a pandemic (cabins, glamping tents, and all the county permits that come with it), and how she keeps showing up to rooms of 50 to 100 people even though part of her just wants to sit at the back.

If you want to catch Flora on the Creative Revolution Tour, she’s stopping in Portland, Denver, Minneapolis, the Omega Institute in New York, Hot Springs, Santa Fe, and Santa Barbara -late September through mid-November. No art experience needed. Just art making, writing, and connecting soul to soul.

If you already know Flora, this will deepen your love. If you’re just meeting her, you’re in for a treat.

8. Threshold Moments with Tamu Mosley

mercredi 16 septembre 2026 • Durée 55:23

Tamu is a holistic wellness facilitator, teacher, and mama of three based in Oakland, California. In this conversation, she traces her origin story, from her grandmothers in Texarkana who taught her the art of tending, to her parents’ interracial marriage and migration from the South, to her own path as a kitchen alchemist, home herbalist, and practitioner of Cha Dao (the Way of Tea).

We talk about the menopause portal and how Tamu built a support circle that became a self-guided journal called Dancing the In Between; her experience sitting with plant medicine and how it cracked her open to compassion as a mother; and how a single hour of tea at Spirit Weavers Gathering brought her the same depth of release she’d found in night-long ceremonies. We also get into living spring water, daily tea practice as a moving meditation, and what it means to live by “everyday practical magic.”

Tamu's booklet Dancing the In Between is now available on her website. Link below.

7. Channeling Change with Tizzle (L’lia Thomas)

mercredi 9 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:06:54

This week I’m sitting down with Tizzle. An astrologer, perfumer, channel, and grant writer who shares her journey from an awkward misfit to finally feeling fully aligned.

We get into how art saved her life and teaching healed her, the shift from discipline to devotion that changed everything, and her work with the Sawalmem in Northern California. She’s 43, she’s thriving, and she’ll tell you the 40s are the decade.

I almost didn’t start this podcast, and it was Tizzle’s reading that pushed me to finally do it, so this one feels extra special.

You can find Tizzle on Instagram @aromakaura

Music for this episode is by my brother, Elam Blackman. You can find his work here.

6. Wearable Spells with Justice McNeil-Sumser

mercredi 2 septembre 2026 • Durée 45:16

In this episode I talk with Justice McNeil-Sumser, a fiber artist, creative facilitator, and yoga teacher based in San Francisco. She's a self-identified highly sensitive person who makes soft armor, wearable spells, and sewing patterns. She makes a living from her art without losing herself to it, which is harder than it sounds! We talk about color as medicine, what it costs to stay true to your creative vision, and the moment she shipped off a five-dress order feeling completely resentful and thought: I'm done.

Justice has built something entirely her own and uses her platform to lift others while she's at it. If you already know her, this will just add to the reasons why you love her. If you're just being introduced, you're in for a treat!

5. The Medicine of Expression with Zoë Swara Tollefson.

mercredi 26 août 2026 • Durée 39:51

I talk with Zoë Swara Tollefsen, one of my oldest, dearest friends. Zoë is a bodyworker and Ayurvedic practitioner in the Bay Area who’s been studying in an unbroken 3,500-year-old lineage for nearly 20 years.

Zoë traces her story from a wild, expressive childhood in the forests of the Olympic Peninsula; where she spoke to plants and sold tickets to her own one-kid shows -through the loss of her father, the meeting of her teacher, and the long road of learning to trust her own knowing over the fears of others.

We talk about growing up with Scandinavian ritual, finding a Vedic lineage through family, and how Ayurveda and Esalen massage became two halves of a single practice: creating spaces where people can land in their bodies and let expression move through them. Zoë opens up about why she tells every person who gets on her table: if something wants to come through, let it.

3. The Alchemy of Advocacy with Teyler Wallace

mercredi 12 août 2026 • Durée 55:07

I sat down with Teyler, a mother, doula, and founder of Doula for the People and the Foodie Doula. Her nonprofit that provides free postpartum care and nourishing meals to BIPOC and queer mothers in the Bay Area.

We trace her path from a childhood rooted in food and big family, to her own isolating postpartum experience -unable to afford the support she now provides; which became the catalyst for her nonprofit. We dig into building something meaningful inside systems you’re trying to resist, and the line between sacrifice and martyrdom.

We close on intuition, self-care as protection, and parenting through presence over performance.

In this episode:

* Teyler’s roots -Jamaican and Mexican-American family

* How not having postpartum support shaped her mission

* Building Doula for the People without becoming a martyr to the cause

* Staying rooted in community values while working within institutional systems

* Protecting your energy and parenting through presence, not perfection
