Stories of Water – Details, episodes & analysis

Katie is an old college friend of mine, and ... just so happens to be a critically acclaimed author of her own memoir, Lightening Flowers, 2020.

We talk about her brush with death, journeying through the ultimate fear of nearly not finishing her book, what living means to her, and generally have a really fun discussion on the hilarity and magnanimous journey of human life.

This is one of my favorite podcasts yet, and Katie is so much fun to talk with. Find out more about her writing doula work here:

Brandy and I get really vulnerable about my healing journey, and what it means to be a spirit in a human body. We talk about sexual abuse, healing the sacral center, divine union, what warriorship is, how to rise out of victimhood, and so much more.  This one goes deep, and is a vulnerable share for me.  I hope it gives you some solace as you walk through your healing journey too.  🙏
