Daydreaming Wolves Podcast

Happy slightly belated new moon, you dreambabes! I hope the eclipse season is treating you well, that you are being showered in beautiful insights and that healing feels like softly floating down a river on a stable and supportive leaf (idk where that came from, I had a lot of rose tea this morning).  I feel super excited to bring you this gem of a conversation - it`s is a beautiful deep-dive into ideas, challenges and dreams around sharing, solidarity and engaging with money in sustainable, healthier ways. We also talked about the seduction of quick cash in the online business world, what it can mean to have social capital and access to resources and how the internet isn`t as democratic as we may think it is. I have worked with Sophie personally and feel that my life is so much richer with her in it - I can feel why she is so passionate about her work and I really value her perspectives.  Sophie Macklin is a queer femme witch, anti-capitalist abundance coach, and feminist priestess in love with the magic of valuing and care. She works with people on thriving within and despite capitalism as we all work to dismantle systemic oppression. She believes the current system for resource distribution is drastically unfair, and relies on the exploitation of land and people. She is interested in creating something different.  Sophie is passionate about women and queers getting paid for their work, mutual aid, and all of us getting imaginative about new economies and new ways of being.  You can find Sophie`s website here:  http://www.feministabundance.com/ And this is her instagram:  http://instagram.com/sophieamacklin ⋒ Hi, my name is Yarrow and I am your host.

Hey friends, happy almost blue moon to you! I have a really special episode for you to celebrate this magical moon - Vanessa Sage came back on the show (listen to the first episode with her, #9, if you haven`t already) to talk about intuitive tarot magic and finding confidence, inspiration and comfort through the cards. We had a chat about finding the right deck, making little rituals out of readings, giving yourself permission to approach the cards with unwashed hair and uncertain questions, trusting your intuitive interpretations and finding your own voice as a reader. Vanessa Sage’s work focuses on self-compassion, inner-bravery, and discovering the mystery in our everyday lives.

This week I had my beautiful friend and business guide Lisa Nagel on the show - we talked about keeping it real, simple and magical and how we can learn through joy rather than just through difficult experiences. We also shared some rituals that are pretty easy to do and have really helped us through challenging times, explored what it can mean to work with desire and surrender and talked about being at ease with the cycles of expansion and contraction. Lisa is such a sweet, wonderful babe and I am delighted to share her with you! In this episode we mentioned the concepts of mantras and chakras and as two white people we`d like to acknowledge that these are practices that have generously been brought to us in Europe by Indian teachers like Swami Sivananda who shared their wisdom with us despite the horrific experiences their communities have made through colonisation. Lisa Nagel is a card reader and healer currently based in Amsterdam, Netherlands. She supports women through a unique blend of love filled card and energy readings by marrying the magical, spiritual and the practical to empower them, witness and heal their wild sensitive souls. She deeply believes in the inherent wisdom each soul carries and in making more space for sacredness in our lives.  Lisa`s website:  http://www.wildsensitivesouls.com/ Lisa`s instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsensitivesouls/ Her free full moon ritual kit: http://www.wildsensitivesouls.com/yourfreeritualkit ⋒ Hi, my name is Yarrow and I am your host.

Hey friends, this episode is really, really beautiful - especially if you are into the tarot. Lindsay Mack has been such an inspiration to me as she has a really unique way of working with the cards in healing and creative ways. I got to ask her about self-care practices, plant friends, making wild career moves and healing from trauma and PTSD.  Lindsay shared her view on soul cards, how her astrological houses have helped her better understand her experience, how she started her journey as a tarot reader after a major crisis, what eucalyptus means to her and why she wants to connect to the plants of her ancestry. We also talked about healing trauma as a present moment process around something that happened in the past, what our relationship to the word witch is and our perspective on generosity and unconventional online marketing.  A little side note - the sound quality unfortunately is a little lower than usual in this episode as I had some tech issues, I hope you still enjoy it!  More about Lindsay:  Lindsay Mack is a Brooklyn based intuitive counselor, holistic healer, tarot reader, and the founder of Wild Soul Healing, and Tarot for the Wild Soul. She offers and facilitates Intuitive Soul Readings, Intuitive and Spiritual Coaching, Mentorship, and Tarot Trainings for those who desire to heal, evolve and live fully on their true soul path.  She is the creator of Soul Tarot, a way of interpreting, understanding and intentionally utilizing the Tarot as wild medicine for our soul's evolution. Soul Tarot is a fusion of channeled wisdom from her guides, her 22 years of experience reading and studying Tarot, and her own healing journey through abuse and PTSD.  Lindsay`s website: www.lindsaymack.com Her instagram account:  https://www.instagram.com/wildsoulhealing/ Her Tarot for the Wild Soul course that we talked about:  https://www.lindsaymack.com/tarotforthewildsoul ⋒ Hi, my name is Yarrow and I am your host.

I will be super honest here - Sarah had been an instagram crush of mine for a while before I was super brave and emailed her about coming on my show and thank Goddess she said yes! Sarah is super magical yet totally down to earth and has shared lots of gems about her way of reading the tarot, working with plants and letting go of habits that are no longer serving her. We also talked about authentic self-care, living in Asheville and reclaiming the word witch. I also highly recommend checking out her blog (all links below) and signing up for her self-care checklist. Enjoy! Sarah M.
