Retreat & Transformation with the Body Magick Temple with Eva D'Luscious and Vanity Thorn

In this episode we are changing things up a bit and having a talk about our upcoming co-created retreat here in the PNW: Babes Getaway Weekend Nov 17-20 in Mt Hood Or with the Body Magick Temple with Eva D'luscious and Vanity Thorn. We discuss the power of retreat and what we have learned giving ourselves these powerful times away from our daily life to create the transformation & healing we desire.  With Eva at the helm, we are co-creating a retreat for women before the holiday hustle to replenish your cup so that you go into the holiday full with energy and love to share. During the weekend through dance, ritual, journaling and other practices we will be focusing on Self-Love and our connection to our bodies, minds and spirits as a way to walk through life with confidence and grace.

Introducing all things Initiation, Rites of Passage & Thresholds...what, why, how

This episode is a short introduction to Initiation, Rites of Passage & Thresholds that goes into the framing around what this podcast is about to give some context and understanding.   In this time of modern capitalist society, it seems like centering a conversation around Initiation is very potent for many of us who are living very far away from the lands and cultures we originated from & who knew how to initiate their communities through the many rites of passage and thresholds a human being experiences over a lifetime.   It has been my experience that once I went through a initiation experience consciously that it  catalyzed an awakening in my soul to step forward on my path in service.  This podcast has been inspired by many of these experiences I've had.  There is powerful medicine for each other when we share stories and wisdom, so I hope you will bring your voice here.   This podcast is a safe space for diverse viewpoints and respectful discussion of all things Initiation.  One of my core values is for inclusion & belonging so I strive to make this space feel welcoming to all.   On this show, I strive to amplify the stories and experiences of individuals from all walks of life. I recognize that each person's identity is unique and shaped by a myriad of factors.  As a cisgendered, heterosexual, able-bodied white woman, I am dedicated to using my privilege and platform to uplift marginalized voices and engage in conversations that celebrate our differences and commonalities alike. One of the intentions of this podcast is to serve as a safe haven where open dialogue and genuine understanding thrive. I am continuously educating myself about the challenges faced by underrepresented communities, and I am committed to learning and growing alongside our audience. I invite you to join us on this journey of exploration, empathy, and connection. Let's stand together, learn from one another, and build a world where everyone's story is valued and cherished. In that spirit, if you have a story to share or know someone who’s story needs to be shared, I welcome you & your friends to reach out to be a guest on the podcast. Land Acknowledgement: This podcast was recorded where I live & work in The Portland Metro area which rests on traditional village sites of the Multnomah, Wasco, Cowlitz, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Bands of Chinook, Tualatin, Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other tribes who made their homes along the Columbia River creating communities and summer encampments. I take this opportunity to thank the original caretakers of this land and acknowledge that we live here on stolen land.
