Episode 04: Emmi Banks and The Art of Rage

Episode 05: Jimmy Maldonado and Our Heart’s Intelligence

In our first episode of 2026, I am joined by Jimmy Maldonado who is a an Indigenous ceremonial piercer at Wolf and Goat Piercing in Denver, CO. He is also the sole survivor of a mass shooting. We get into a lot of topics during our hour chat, but ultimately, this episode is a testament to how art, ancestry, community, culture, movement, grief, and using our gifts/medicine can help us through the most unimaginable circumstances. It was really fun, and also a deep honor to connect with such a force in this world, and I can’t wait for you to imbibe every bit of wisdom that he shared with me during our time together.  You can learn more and connect with Jimmy and his work here:  https://www.instagram.com/corazon_de_tecpatl?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/corazon_de_tecpatl?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] https://www.instagram.com/tecpatl23?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/tecpatl23?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] In memory of Alyssa Gunn-Maldonado and Alicia Cardenas 🕯️

Episode 04: Emmi Banks and The Art of Rage

I had the pleasure of sitting with Emmi a few weeks ago after being connected through Instagram for several years. There is so much I enjoyed about our conversation, but what I loved the most is how genuine and raw Emmi is. She is a British writer who, unsurprisingly, happens to also be a deep thinker and feeler. She is authentically verbose, cheeky, and careful. She cares…a lot. She is my friend from “across the pond” and I am excited for you all to know her.  Connect to Emmi Banks here:  https://www.instagram.com/e.e.banks?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/e.e.banks?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] Connect to The Death Alchemist here:  https://www.instagram.com/thedeathalchemist?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr [https://www.instagram.com/thedeathalchemist?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr]

Episode 03: Death’s Diary

A quick confessional. Observations. Feelings. What sprouted up after an impromptu deep dive into my archival series called “Death’s Diary”  A few examples: https://www.instagram.com/p/DOQFQMxjoVL/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/p/DOQFQMxjoVL/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] https://www.instagram.com/p/DHw6OfNRdOM/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/p/DHw6OfNRdOM/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] https://www.instagram.com/p/DGt51zFyekn/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/p/DGt51zFyekn/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==] https://www.instagram.com/p/DA_6Ig_z3od/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== [https://www.instagram.com/p/DA_6Ig_z3od/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==]

Episode 01: Inheritance

“Because you can jail a revolutionary, but you can’t jail the revolution. You can run a freedom fighter around the country but you can’t run freedom fighting around the country. You can murder a liberator, but you can’t murder liberation.”  — Fred Hampton This episode is dedicated to every single revolutionary, alive and dead, and to all who are inspired by them. May their memory and way of being continue to light the way for us all. In this first solo episode, I get into the many iterations and emotions behind our understanding of inheritance, legacy, and what we leave behind while still alive.  I also answer a listener’s questions and share a bit of my own personal lore.
