In this episode, we dive into the powerful concept of discernment. I explore how discernment isn't just about making decisions, but about tuning into the subtle messages of the body and the energies around us.

In this episode, we’re diving into a wound that runs deep in the collective consciousness—the Witch Wound. Rooted in centuries of persecution, the Witch Wound stems from the witch trials that took place in Salem and around the world. These hunts weren’t just about fear of the supernatural—they were fueled by religious zealotry, patriarchal control, and the rise of male-dominated medicine at a time when midwifery and women’s healing practices were flourishing. We’ll explore how this wound shows up in modern times, especially for women who are reclaiming their power, intuition,...

Show Notes
Key Topics Covered:
-
The “Light and Love” Myth – Healing is often portrayed as a purely positive experience, but it also means facing discomfort and pain.
-
The Shadow Self – Real healing requires acknowledging the parts of ourselves we hide from—our shadow selves, where emotions like anger, guilt, and shame reside.
-
Isolation and Changing Relationships – As we evolve, relationships can shift or fall away, sometimes leaving us feeling isolated.
-
The Physical and Emotional Toll – Healing can bring up intense physical symptoms and emotional exhaustion, a natural part of the body releasing old trauma.
-
Healing as a Lifelong Journey – Healing isn’t about “fixing” ourselves once and for all; it’s a continuous journey with new challenges.
-
Dangers of Spiritual Bypassing – Avoiding real issues by focusing only on “positive vibes” can hinder healing rather than help it.
-
Regret, Guilt, and Shame – Confronting these challenging emotions is essential to clearing emotional blockages.
-
Reliving Trauma – Healing can mean revisiting traumatic memories, which can be intense but also transformational.
-
Identity Shifts – As we release old versions of ourselves, we may feel uncertain or question our sense of self.
-
Finding Community – Healing can feel lonely, but finding safe spaces and supportive communities can make the journey easier.
-
Healing Fatigue – It’s easy to feel burned out from “too much healing”; pacing yourself and allowing rest is vital.
-
Self-Judgment and Comparison – Healing isn’t a competition. Embrace your unique path without comparing your progress to others.
-
Navigating Uncertainty – Periods of confusion and feeling “lost” are normal. Learn to sit with uncertainty as part of growth.
Listener Takeaways:
- True healing is a mix of light and shadow; it’s essential to embrace both.
- Healing is a journey, not a destination. Give yourself permission to rest, feel, and move at your own pace.
- Remember that you’re not alone; community and support are out there.
