What’s Required To Free Yourself From Others’ Shadows 14.10.2024 48:50
This is probably one of my favorite lives I’ve done in awhile. The reason being is for how applicable it is to ALL of us. So many times we lose ourselves in the projections of others. We are no longer able to understand what is our shadow and what is theirs. This leads to confusion, stagnation, and even more shadow. In this live, I cover the big 3 steps required to free yourself from the shadows o...
How To Align Yourself In Spiritual Integrity 09.10.2024 39:22
We live in a world that has made spirituality extremely accessible without proper guidance and protection. Anyone can go be in a plant ceremony or obtain a reiki certification. What is missing most right now is Spiritual Integrity. People are obtaining the IMAGE of a practice but not the ESSENCE. The essence is forged through understanding the sacrifice that’s required to hold that medicine. That...
Why You Feel Unprepared For The Next Level In Your Path 30.09.2024 36:14
Many of us are hitting a point where we are realizing that the certifications, ceremonies, and titles are not enough. We’re realizing that ESSENCE is more important than image. This is leading to a collective feeling of “What do I do now? I am unprepared for the future.” This is where shadow work becomes essential to the journey. Shadow work is understanding what is the true root behind the unprep...
Shadow Work 101: What It Is and Why It Matters 16.09.2024 32:53
There is a big misconception around “what is shadow work”. Many believe it is journal prompts, identifying attachment styles, and looking at the dark parts of self. This is just the surface of shadow work. Shadow work is a traditional, ancestral, indigenous practice of diving deep into your spirit and understanding what needs to be confronted. This touches on identity, ancestral cycles, the body,...
Where Are You In The Medicine Wheel? 09.09.2024 1:21:10
Read this carefully. If you don’t understand the medicine wheel, you don’t understand spirituality. The medicine wheel is a way of life. It shows us how spirits move, how to move with the natural cycles of the universe, and how to hold medicine with reverence. This live is full of teachings, so grab your notebook and pen. The medicine wheel is how we ultimately integrate our shadow and learn our m...
The Truth On Why You Feel Disconnected 19.08.2024 1:07:16
Many of us have the belief that we are disconnected from spirit, ancestors, and medicine. I’m here to tell you that you’re not disconnected, you’re mislead. We must go beyond the statement of “I’m disconnected” and truly understand the root of this shadow. It is our doubt. Our expectations of spirit. Our fear of the responsibility.
Uncomfortable Is Not Harm 13.08.2024 1:10:40
This is a potent one full of accountability checks, reverence, and most importantly a challenge to your shadows of comfort. Many people use the words “unsafe” and “harm” as a way to dodge accountability from their contribution to pain and shadow. We must cultivate discernment and true understanding of medicine in order to heal in a good way. 🩸 If you’re ready to confront your shadows and learn yo...
What’s Required To Be In Healthy Spiritual Communities 05.08.2024 43:15
When doing spirit work, you must be prepared for difficult conversations. To be challenged. To hit hardship. This is part of this work. It doesn’t “go away” through bypassing. It will simply build until it erupts. When looking at yourself and other spiritual spaces, ask yourself the following questions: - Are difficult conversations held here? - Am I allowing my shadow to be challenged and my medi...
Find Medicine, Not Modalities 22.07.2024 1:01:14
This live is HEAVY on responsibility and accountability. The greatest question you can ask yourself and your practitioners is “what is your medicine?” This must go deeper than certifications and titles. Ask them what are the spirits that work with them. What are the ancestors, plants, guides, etc. that work with them? This where we move from empty modalities to potent medicine. 🩸 If you’re ready...
Stop Overwhelming Your Spirit 16.07.2024 1:08:24
In this live we go deep into how mainstream spirituality has us half-hazardly using our spirits. Whether it’s through plant ceremonies or modalities, we need to create more awareness and protection for our spirits. A big reason you’re drawn to the next certification or healing is because you are half assing the real work needed. The work required to cultivate that connection you Spirit you desire...

Stop Using Spirituality Selfishly 14.06.2024 1:03:25
This live is for everyone. From spiritual practitioners to those of you just beginning, this is a message for you.

You Need More Medicine, Not More Shadow 21.05.2024 1:09:04
Many of us are familiar with the shadows. We’ve spent our whole lives there. We begin to fear medicine and mistaken it as bad because all we know is shadow. We are blind to the medicine.

Let me know your thoughts in the comments after you watch. Lets t...
What Does It Mean to “Know Your Shadow”? 25.03.2024 53:17
There’s a big misconception around shadow work and what constitutes a shadow. Shadow work is more than journal prompts. It’s more than bad feelings and behavior. In this live we go into what it truly means to know your shadow: - What is your shadow’s name? - What is its language? - What is its actions? - What is the pleasure you gain from your shadow? - What is it’s purpose? Shadow work has many l...
The 4 Phases of Healing: Where Are You? 13.03.2024 59:17
In this life I GO DEEP into understanding the four phases of healing. So many of us don’t understand that there are phases to our healing. Instead, we listen and follow New Age rhetoric that keeps us stuck and plateaued in our healing. The four phases go as followed: 1.) Awareness - the mind. Therapy, breathwork, sound baths, tarot. Concepts of the mind and curiosity. 2.) Body - Somatics. Plant me...
Shadow Work is Not Meant to be Comfortable 26.02.2024 46:25
Too much bullsh*t has been projected within spirituality. The belief that affirmations, rubbing crystals on our third eye, and taking plant medicine every week will heal us. No. This is an extreme form of extraction and privilege. Real healing is in the mud. It is where you are confronting the darkest parts of yourself and pushing through anyways. Shadow work is for the warriors. It is for those o...
Medicine Requires Shadow; Duality of Healing 19.02.2024 59:57
There’s a misconception that medicine is all love and light. Our deepest medicine is hidden in our shadows. It is what has been buried, not only ancestrally, but also by ourselves.

We discuss: 🌿 Knowing medicine without shadow is illusion 🪶 Our shadows hold our medicine ⚡️ Ho...
