Shaman Sister Sessions

Katherine and Michelle both enjoyed travel to sacred sites this past year (Katherine has been on pilgrimage for one full year!) and by special request from a listener, they open up about their experiences. How do we engage with pilgrimage as an inner and outer journey? What makes a site sacred? Join Michelle Hawk and Katherine bird as they share some of their favorite takeaways from the pilgrimage...

You have probably already had soul activation experiences... but do you know what to do with them? Throughout the awakening journey, we receive many Soul Activations as direct transmissions from Spirit. They can come in many forms and expressions, and if you don't know how to work with them, they can kick your ass.   Join Michelle Hawk and Katherine Bird as they break down for you what Soul Activa...

At some point in your healing journey, you will want to say f*** it and quit. Whether you're receiving healing work or offering it to others, at some point, you will want to walk away from your practice and never come back. ...and you're not alone in that. This path contains many pitfalls that are common to both recipients and practitioners. Good news for you: Michelle and Katherine have been doin...

Integrity: the core foundation of any practice. What does it mean to be in integrity with yourself, with others and with Spirit? How do you know when you're in integrity? How do you know when others are acting in integrity? In a world of instant gratification, curated social media and glorified "personal development," many people present an image which is out of integrity with their personal and p...

  As we move through our awakening cycle, we experience activations and initiations into various lineages and teachings. Working with lineages can be incredibly powerful, but it's important to cultivate a conscious, dynamic relationship with these bodies of knowledge. How can practitioners come into right relation with their lineages? What does it mean to work with lineages, mystery schools and co...

There are so many Spiritual teachers out there representing myriad lineages, realms of expertise and practices. As you go through your own rites of passage, activations and initiatory experiences, it's vitally important to find the teacher that's right for you. What are the most important things to consider when choosing a Spiritual Teacher? What are the dangers of choosing a teacher who is not in...

For practitioners! How to Choose Your Clients In our previous episode, we discussed from the client perspective how to go about choosing which Shaman to work with. However, it is just as important for practitioners to carefully curate their client base in order to work with the people who are most aligned for their practice! Michelle Hawk and Katherine Bird offer their best advice, tools and pract...

Receiving healing and guidance is a very personal, intimate process and it is vitally important to make sure you have the right person in your corner. When you work with a Shaman, you're inviting another person into your process and energy field. What are the most important considerations when choosing a Shaman? How can you tell if they're authentic, and if they'll be the most supportive for you?...

As spiritual practitioners, we inevitably end up interacting with the Spirit realm. The Veil is especially thin this time of year, and more energy, information and magical connections become available to us... if we are open to them. What does it mean to work through the Veil? How can we safely interact with the Spirit Realm? How can we use this powerful time in the Earth cycle to connect more dee...

Welcome to Shaman Sister Sessions! We created this podcast to empower psychics, empaths, energy healers, Shamans and all those on the path of awakening. We offer a deep look into our personal and professional experiences as healers and Universal seekers, along with tools for navigating the expansion of human consciousness, cultivation of psychic and Shamanic gifts and living a fulfilled, uniquely...

More and more lightworkers are being called to serve in a professional capacity that takes their work from the realm of "calling" into the land of "livelihood." Together, Michelle and Katherine have lived a combined 15+ years as entrepreneurs. As we close this special September theme of Healing in Business and Finances, we'll wrap this month with a discussion on Conscious Entrepreneurship. What is...

Michelle and Katherine are delighted to welcome special guest Christine Wilborn for a conversation on Sacred Finances! As we continue this special September theme of Healing in Business and Finances, we are excited to jump in and tackle one of our crunchiest topics yet: MONEY. Everything that we do to cultivate our identity as practitioners is a skill, and money is no different. And yet, when it c...

A lot of discussion takes place in the healing community regarding "Prosperity Consciousness" vs "Poverty Consciousness." And frankly, some of it is downright bullshit. What does it mean to be in right relation with our finances? How can we gracefully integrate financial health and well-being into a thriving healing practice? What is the role of Prosperity Consciousness in the evolution of a new p...

Many of us who are called to the path of healing work are stepping into not only offering this work as a calling and a service, but as a business. As we Soulpreneurs step into the realm of economy, we are redefining not only what it means to be a healer, but a businessperson. As Soulpreneurs, Michelle and Katherine have come to intimately understand not only what it means to serve, but what it tak...

In the modern consciousness of literal communication and linear thinking, we lose the magic of nuance and metaphor. We learn future-thinking and striving to push forward, and are taught to avoid "dwelling on the past." However, we are the Heroines and Heroes of our own Personal Mythology. Our lives weave together a complex tapestry of meaning, personal history, ancestry, tragedy and adventure. Dur...

This week on Shaman Sister Sessions, Michelle and Katherine are delighted to welcome special guest Holly Rhiannon Seraphine Morgana! The Isle of Avalon is a sacred landscape of activation and initiation. Avalon is the heart chakra of Gaia and holds ancient mythic codes that are waking up in her daughters and sons, to guide the Turning of the Ages that we are experiencing. What are the Codes of Ava...

In addition to our biological codes and genetic material, we also carry Soul Codes and BioEnergetic Signatures. These Soul Codes have just as much of a role to play in determining the expression of who we are and how we live in this lifetime. What are Soul Codes and BioEnergetic Signatures? Why are they important? We'll discuss: -Soul Codes and Energetic Signatures -Some of the key Soul Codes and...

Michelle and Katherine are so excited to welcome special guest Andrea Leda Wilborn! We place so much emphasis on "Solar Consciousness:" expansion, light, and moving toward the "good" and happy things in our lives. But what about Lunar Consciousness? What about the subtlety, the grace, the different perspective and the depth that comes from allowing ourselves to walk through the darkness without tr...

Learn about Past Lives and how to integrate them. Various traditions and lineages acknowledge Past Lives and the role that they play in our current lived experience. From the Shamanic perspective, we carry the lessons and the gifts, as well as the traumas and challenges, of our past lives with us. What happens when these traumas and challenges show up in our current lifetime? How do we reconcile a...

When we experience trauma and spiritual challenges that we don't later process and integrate, our soul can fracture. Soul fragmentation can result in loss of sense of self, loss of vitality, feeling disconnected from life force and as though something is missing. Soul loss is a cumulative process. We can experience trauma and soul fragmentation from past lives, and still feel the results of this i...

As we transition into the Summer, we shift into the season of the Child. So many of us hold wounds and traumas from our childhood. Trouble fitting in, abusive home life, forced to "grow up" too early, shut down for being who we are... we carry these wound with us into adulthood and they inform our trauma patterns for years to come. However, it is possible to work with our own Inner Child to come i...

Let us honor the Summer Solstice together! What intentions do you have for the most expansive, peak moment of light in the Northern Hemisphere, before we return back to the darkness? We are working with specific frequencies of remembrance and returning to a compassionate heart in this ceremony. As well as, deep prayers for the children of Earth. Receive channeled guidance and healing. We invite yo...

Ritual and sacred practice is an essential part of the Earthly experience. Throughout human history, we have been able to trace the thread of sacred rites and rituals that mark pivotal experiences. Earth cycles such as solstices and equinoxes, harvest and the rains, were traditionally honored with ceremony. Human events such as birth, naming, rites of passage and death, were also ritualized and he...

Sometimes it seems as though we are going up an insurmountable wall of our cumulative wounds, traumas and challenges. At times, we may ask ourselves, "Is it actually possible? Can I ever fully heal from all of this? Can I do it in this lifetime?" What is the nature of Healing? How can aligning with the healing process itself support us in our journey? What can we actually do in this lifetime to su...

Familiarizing yourself with the different Healer Archetypes can support you in coming into the fullest expression of your innate energetic signatures as a Healer, and overcome the shadows inherent to the archetype. What are...
