Podcast #37 My interview with Desiree Cervantes on chaos magic, tarot and cultural appropriation

Summary: Hey dreambabes, I am incredibly honoured to bring you an episode with the wonderful Desiree Cervantes today! We first met online a few years ago and started to have really good chats about magic, cultural appropriation and identity this summer. Desiree is incredibly kind yet fierce, grounded, curious and magical and I am super happy she said yes to recording one of our conversations. This is some of what we talked about:  - Magic as a way to self-soothe - Coming out later in life - Cultural appropriation in spiritual communities - Working with ancestral traditions  - Chaos magic and dealing with the unexpected  - Shedding the idea that our worth as a person is defined by how desirable we are to men Desiree Cervantes is a shaman, intuitive healer and witch.  An indigenous femme, modern medicine woman and mother of two.  She is passionate about wild spirituality, radical honesty and creativity as a tools for spiritual healing. Desiree helps wild-hearted souls connect with and reclaim their personal magic through intuitive counselling, clairvoyant readings, practical magic and mediumship.
