Mariana Mae on Listening to Clay & Walking Softly With Beauty20 févr. 202601:01:15

Mariana Mae shares about sitting at the feet of indigenous elder women who create with clay around the world.

Mariana Mae is an artist and visionary native to Coyoacan, DF, Mexico. She used to offer her work under the wingspan of Easy To Breathe in the Valley of Ojai, California.

We think you'll love Mariana's way of gentleness, softness, and beauty in the world as she does big work in a radically different way than the mainstream.

  • Receiving the messages of the earth through the elements

  • The medicine of culture shock from moving internationally as a kid
  • Overcoming shyness and finding your voice through creative expression
  • How Mariana first found the magic of clay at age 7
  • Growing up in a Catholic household and then leaving religion
  • Going back to the womb of the mother, listening to the elements, and being guided by elders in temazcal (sweatlodge)
  • Walking softly with beauty as a way of life

Textile Artist Christi Johnson on Magic Embroidery & Moving from NYC to Rural NY05 déc. 202500:59:40

Christi Johnson on moving from NYC to upstate New York as an artist who grew up in Florida.

When textile artist Christi Johnson and I spoke in 2018, she shared her story of moving from the city to the country, and it really inspired me. I love how honest she was about how it wasn't all glamorous and easy. But it was worth it.

Fast forward to now, Dec 2025, and I would never have guessed that I'd be going through a similar story! I recently listened to this episode again for my own personal inspiration, and it holds a timeless message about finding your way to places that nourish your deeper needs.

In this conversation we also get into:

  • How naturally dyed textiles and embroidery support healing
  • Christi's ancestral connection to textiles
  • Overcoming fear of sharing her thoughts and work publicly
  • Adornment as self-expression and talismanic protection

When this episode was first published, Christi created a special guide for our listeners about magic sewing and embroidery. Since then that guide grew into a full-blown published book called Mystical Stitches! And now she has a second book called The Art of Embroidery Design.

Christi has so many free and low-cost resources on her website, mixedcolor.net, so if you're interested in sewing, stitching, or magical embroidery, definitely take a look.

She has a pocket altar zine in her workshop section about crafting a sacred space of tiny talisman that you can carry with you.

Christi also has a podcast called Stitch Wish Radio, which you'll definitely enjoy if you liked this episode.

And we brought her back for a second interview on the podcast a few years ago about stitching magic making through talismanic embroidery.

All of this is linked in the show notes.

Thanks and enjoy this episode!

Make Paradise, Not Money w/ Joe Hollis of Mountain Gardens16 oct. 202501:26:31

Herbalist Joe Hollis shares his story about getting out of the system of capitalism and into a more direct relationship with the Earth over his last 50 years, where he made paradise, not money.

What follows is an interview with herbalist Joe Hollis of Mountain Gardens in the land of the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, outside of Asheville, North Carolina.

I was so fortunate to interview him in person in October 2021, just two years before his passing at age 81. 

The year after this interview, a devastating fire burned down his extensive library of both books and herbs. Then, in 2024, Hurricane Helene brought landslides that completely changed the land he tended. 

However, there are still people keeping his legacy alive, tending to the gardens, rebuilding the library, and recovering from the landslides. If you want to support them, go to mountaingardensherbs.com, and that link is in the show notes as well.

More Is Not Always Better, Yet We Need Not Be Without // On Temperance & Tending Our Aliveness09 oct. 202501:55:31

Temperance is challenging to talk about because it goes against society's decree that growth and accumulation of riches are necessary for survival in the modern world.

Temperance protects against deficiency and excess. 

Temperance mediates extremes, bringing opposing sides towards a more balanced and dynamic center. 

Temperance says more is not always better, yet we need not be without. 

Temperance helps us attune to the safety and abundance of enough.

Temperance is one of my favorite Tarot cards, and it aligns with my favorite somatic tool called titration, so when Cecily Sailer asked me to be on her podcast to discuss the Temperance Tarot card, I said YES!

This episode was originally published on Cecily's podcast, called Your Creative & Magical Life, and it is republished here with her permission.

We talk about:

  • How witches were given a negative image during the enclosure of the commons
  • The weirdness of having to learn how to feel safe enough to feel safe on one's trauma healing journey
  • Not blaming ourselves for so-called shortcomings that are actually caused by systemic oppression
  • How Temperance plays into healing trauma at a nervous system level
  • Tending to one's aliveness despite living in an age of chaos and collapse

Again and again I touch on how we're operating within a system that wants us to believe that it's our fault that we can't win at an impossible game, and how temperance can help alleviate some of the suffering that comes from these internalized beliefs.

You'll also hear about:

  • Using poetry as a channel for the earth

*****

Jacqueline Suskin is a self-proclaimed ecstatic earth worshiper, the author of eight published books, all of which center around the earth and its bounty. Currently, she's focused on bringing her nature poetry curriculum into classrooms around the country and her new book "A Year in Practice – Seasonal Rituals and Prompts to Awaken Cycles of Creative Expression" is available at all major booksellers.  This episode was recorded in July 2021 during her time as artist in residence at Folklife farm in Bayside California. 

 

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Jacqueline's calling to make poetry more accessible and help people open the door to its transformative possibilities

  • How poetry's ability to condense deep concepts and quickly take us to the heart of the matter is the perfect medium for our era's shorter attention spans

  • How deep relationship with anyone or anything involves connecting and communicating on a sensory level beyond language

  • Magic not having to look a certain way 

  • How establishing relationships with the natural elements can allow one to be more spontaneous and less prescribed with their rituals

  • Jacqueline's experience running an artist residency 

  • How things can change overnight when we keep showing up in openness and presence, but the amount of time, space, and attention it takes to keep at it can be hard

  • Stewarding a sense of self to become more connected with our stories, wounds and joy

  • How healing yourself heals everything else – it's literally all you can do

  • Witnessing the shift as we return to more traditional ecological knowledge

  • The importance of lying down and letting the earth hold you

  • The power of vulnerability 

  • Poetry as a mindset and not just written words on a page

  • The institution of poetry vs the spirit of poetry

  • The importance of continuing to be open and following the signs in your life

This week we are sharing a replay from The Empowered Curiosity Podcast, with Spiritual Business Mentor Kat Lee and Earth Speak Founder Natalie Ross. In this episode, Natalie and Kat share 

Kat Lee is a Trauma-Informed Emotional and Somatic Alchemy Coach, host of The Empowered Curiosity Podcast, and Creator of The Heart Lab. She guides her community to rewrite their relationship to safety, love, trust and belonging so they are able to cultivate conscious relationships and manifest their Dao (purpose). Kat believes that healing is a deep remembrance of who you are + recognizing that you are not broken. She believes that the Body, Mind, and Soul are interconnected and respond best to an integrated approach where all the parts of you are remembered. She believes in leaving room for magic. For slowing down to allow your intuition and Truth to rise to the surface. For finding validation through being rather than doing. For flowing through life being actively allowing rather than grasping. Kat's role as coach and space-holder is to be your mirror and share tools and techniques that lead you back to the clarity of your own Heart and autonomy to make choices that are best for you, your body, and your Spirit

Natalie Ross is the host of the Earth Speak Podcast and co-founder of Earth Speak and the Earth Speak Collective. Natalie is also a trauma-informed marketing coach for spiritual entrepreneurs. She weaves mycelial webs that help people connect with self, community, nature, and spirit for personal and collective healing. Having experienced the debilitating impact of complex trauma (cPTSD), she knows how hard it can be for intuitive, caring people to exist, let alone run a business, in this society fueled by greed and domination. 

In this episode, we talk about:

  • When Natalie realized she didn't want to be a spiritual teacher 
  • How Natalie is now supporting change makers and heart-centered entrepreneurs to get clear on how to communicate their message and their values
  • Changing the paradigm from domination to kinship 
  • Nervous system integration and regulation in business 
  • Healing trauma and creating a business rooted in cycles
  • On questioning whether you are aligned with your path 
  • Co-regulation and biological empathy 
  • Embodying your boundaries through your business 
  • Finding safety and nervous system regulation in community 
  • Making friends with the protective parts of yourself 
  • How Natalie shifted her patterns and found aliveness, ease, and capacity 
  • Natalie's love of bunnies and how working with rescue bunnies changed her life 
  • Embodying boundaries and protecting your energy in business 
  • How BAM has supported Natalie and changed her life 
  • Business as a spiritual practice
  • Building a business that is both rooted in your purpose and your nervous system regulation 
  • Kat shares about her 2022 Business Alchemist Mentorship

Luis Mojica of Holistic Life Navigation is a trained somatic therapist, life coach, and whole-food nutritional counselor. He teaches people how to release stress and trauma through listening to their bodies, and he show's up to each client with unconditional love and understanding. Luis has been initiated into the wisdom of trauma through years of suffering. He learned that just as the body stores trauma, the body can release it. He believes that by using somatic techniques, whole foods, herbs, and connecting to the Earth, we are able to listen to our bodies and release stored trauma. 

Also a musician and vocalist, Luis explores the nuances of androgyny, spirituality, and unorthodox male identity through his intuitive compositions and unique musical style. His new album Songs From the Land is a beautiful tapestry of guitar-driven songs that express, quite intimately, Luis' healing journey through shamanism, sex, pain, & ecstatic joy.

This week we're sharing a conversation with Earth Speak Founder Natalie Ross and Spiritual Business Mentor Kat Lee. In this episode, Nat and Kat share about their upcoming Conscious Marketing Weekend Intensive, which they will be co-teaching together in early April 2022. In this workshop, they will be diving deep and teaching participants how to implement the things they discuss in this episode. 

Kat Lee is a Trauma-Informed Emotional and Somatic Alchemy Coach, host of The Empowered Curiosity Podcast, and Creator of The Heart Lab. She guides her community to rewrite their relationship to safety, love, trust and belonging so they are able to cultivate conscious relationships and manifest their Dao (purpose). Kat believes that healing is a deep remembrance of who you are + recognizing that you are not broken. She believes that the Body, Mind, and Soul are interconnected and respond best to an integrated approach where all the parts of you are remembered. She believes in leaving room for magic. For slowing down to allow your intuition and Truth to rise to the surface. For finding validation through being rather than doing. For flowing through life being actively allowing rather than grasping. Kat's role as coach and space-holder is to be your mirror and share tools and techniques that lead you back to the clarity of your own Heart and autonomy to make choices that are best for you, your body, and your Spirit. 

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Nat and Kat's special offering to spiritual entrepreneurs 
  • On stepping outside of your trauma story, in order to share your medicine with your community 
  • Balancing yin and yang energy in business 
  • The ick-factor of marketing
  • On how can we approach pain and trauma in marketing?

  • Why authentic marketing comes from within
  • Making marketing fun and why your work matters 
  • How social media makes us think we have to market ourselves as cool, pure, and perfect 
  • The perfectionist archetype 
  • Learning how to push your edge but still come home to safety 
  • How to find help when you don't know how to move forward in your business 
  • On being taught to override the nervous system
  • Why you don't have to use fear-based tactics in your business

Folklore & Rituals of Imbolc, A Celtic Holiday on the Wheel of the Year, with Natalie Ross REPLAY03 févr. 202200:37:03

Natalie Ross, Earth Speak co-founder, shares about the traditions around the Celtic holiday called Imbolc that signifies the beginning of spring. From Natalie:

"My ancestral lineages are Celtic and Nordic. What I'm sharing is part of my investigations into my own ancestral roots to discover who are the people in my lineages who were Indigenous to a land, and what were their beliefs and customs. If you enjoy this, please let us know!"

You're going to hear about:

  • What Imbolc is and why it was one of the 4 most important celebrations of the year
  • How the Wheel of the Year isn't actually Celtic
  • Brigid, the multi-faceted goddess associated with Imbolc

I'll also share several ways you can celebrate Imbolc in your own practices and rituals.

Kat Lee is a Trauma-Informed Emotional and Somatic Alchemy Coach, host of The Empowered Curiosity Podcast, and Creator of The Heart Lab. She guides her community to rewrite their relationship to safety, love, trust, and belonging so they are able to cultivate conscious relationships and manifest their Dao (purpose). 

Kat believes that healing is a deep remembrance of who you are + recognizing that you are not broken. She believes that the Body, Mind, and Soul are interconnected and respond best to an integrated approach where all the parts of you are remembered. She believes in leaving room for magic. For slowing down to allow your intuition and Truth to rise to the surface. For finding validation through being rather than doing. For flowing through life being actively allowing rather than grasping. Kat's role as coach and space-holder is to be your mirror and share tools and techniques that lead you back to the clarity of your own Heart and autonomy to make choices that are best for you, your body and your Spirit.

She is a forever student of the plant realms and loves to share what she is learning through the lens of food. Tara creates colorful, gluten, dairy, and refined sugar-free food that are plant-focused with the intention that it gets people curious about the plants and how we can protect them. 

Tara believes that food is fundamental to our human community, weaving together what our ancestors knew was beyond survival; it is essential to our emotional, physical, and spiritual health. Food is integral to our reciprocal relationship with the land, people, and the many beings that inhabit our planet. Tara shares recipes, and teaches with the plants through her consciously created business The Medicine Circle, and through her Patreon @themedicinecircle.
