EP 2: Lessons From Saturn

EP 4: Of Therapy and the Spirit

Happy New Year! In this episode of A Space from the Heart, Alexis opens the year with a reflective and deeply personal exploration of her relationship to the field of social work as a clinical therapist. She examines the possibilities and limitations that licensure creates, and how institutional rules can sometimes come into tension with spiritual guidance and personal, cultural, and ancestral ethics. Drawing from Malidoma Patrice Somé’s Of Water and the Spirit, Alexis shares how her own journey has illuminated the ways Western, pathologizing, white supremacist frameworks of “healing” often conflict with Indigenous spiritual beliefs and practices. This episode is an honest contemplation of what it means to practice care with integrity, spirit, and accountability while navigating systems not designed with holistic or ancestral healing in mind. This conversation invites listeners to consider how we define healing, who gets to name it, and what it means to listen when spirit calls us beyond the boundaries of what is sanctioned or legible.
