Shapeshifter
SHAPESHIFTER, is about celebrating the magic of all the parts of you.
Imagine what it would feel like to not have to chop yourself into tiny bits to fit into these predetermined boxes, imposed by society, culture, your family and even yourself?
Imagine a world where you are allowed, in fact, cheered on to explore all your different interests, desires and passions in a way that feels like water flowing through a river - yes, there will be branches along the way that might hit you in the face and want to throw you off course, but those river banks are solid AF. To guide you. To re-direct you.
And guess what?
You get to peek behind the veil whilst you’re at it. No more hiding your woo, yuk, let’s call it what it is. No more hiding your partnership with Spirit, here you learn how to dance and play with it.
Yeah, it’s unconventional, out of the box, audacious, bold, curious, weird even, but dear wild woman, so are you.
It’s time to flip the script and dive headfirst into the not-so comfy parts of life, and really embody your innate creative wisdom, build your business your way and call in your spiritual squad.
When these 3 things come together in song and play - ouuuuffffffff, that’s when your life becomes a wild ride that your future descendants will tell endless stories about.
That’s when your legacy is truly built.
Get out of that snug little bubble, it’s time to really live.

#25 - Hold steady, witch: how to find your role in a world on fire
In this raw, and nuanced, reckining filled episode, Shapeshifter returns from a short break and I speak about the noisy world we live in — and what it really means to find your role within it. From political flashpoints across the globe to the addictive hit of online outrage (takes one to know one), I share how easily we can get swept up in cycles that make us feel alive… while quietly distracting us from the deeper, harder work in our own homes and spirits.
This is not a call to disengage. It’s a call to discernment. To choosing where our fire truly belongs. And it’s a reminder that when the world grows louder, our roots can grow deeper. Anchored in the soil of legacy, spirit, and your calling.
In this episode we explore:
• The addictive dopamine of outrage and why it feels like action
• How world events outside the West (Nepal, Panama, Mozambique, Colombia) can shift our perspective
• Why online noise can mask unfinished inner work
• The grounding practice of rooting deeper when the world rattles
• Deepa Iyer’s Social Change Ecosystem Map and the roles of healer, disruptor, storyteller, weaver, and more
• Letting your purpose unfold in its own time (my journey with Ancestral Awakening)
• The gift of not forcing your calling to “pay the bills” — and what happens when you give it time
• A preview of Blood and Bones, my Día de los Muertos gathering with Eda, an Amazonian medicine woman
