Whew ok - this is a BIG episode, full of lots of ideas that you may find just a little bit spicy. I talk about healthy masculinity, healthy femininity, the beauty of masculine and feminine polarity, and the ways in which contemporary feminism has set women up to fail by entrenching us in iron castles, preserving our trauma rather than healing us from it. I touch on my own gender and trauma healing...

Ok, I know I know - I can be a bit “take no prisoners” at times, but underneath it, I am warm and fuzzy. As much as I advocate a bit of a decisive cutthroat vibe at times, I do believe that feeling our feelings is important, and even deeply physically and emotionally healing. In this episode, I talk about the importance of feeling our feelings, seeing big feelings as gifts and lessons, and the imp...

Have you ever been left out? Not invited to the kewl kids’ party (or podcast, or book anthology thang, or conference, or or or)?

In the last few years, as we’ve seen the rise of anti-science stances among adherents of alternative spirituality, there’s also been an increase of critiques of things like reiki, witchcraft, and everything new age woo as being conspiracy theories or cults. In this episode I argue that many of the current critiques of contemporary fringe spirituality are fuelled by cynicism and contempt, and incor...

We’ve all experienced it - rejection! Maybe you get turned down from a promotion or a job interview, your partner dumps you, or maybe you realize that your crush isn’t as all that as you originally thought.
