1.21 As Above, So Below: Astrology as a Path to Knowing Yourself with Dr. Maggie Red

1.21 As Above, So Below: Astrology as a Path to Knowing Yourself with Dr. Maggie Red

Tuesday sits down with Dr. Magdalena (Maggie) Redd — astrologer, somatic coach, former academic, and one of Tuesday’s most trusted translators of a very ancient art. If you’ve ever been drawn to astrology but felt overwhelmed, confused, or just a little bit lost in the noise, this conversation is your door in. Maggie and Tuesday explore what astrology actually is — not the sun-sign horoscope you read in a newspaper, but a 2,000-year-old system of meaning-making rooted in the cycles of nature, the movement of the cosmos, and the deep human desire to know ourselves. They talk about the different lineages and schools of thought, why something is always happening in the sky (and how to know what actually matters for you), what astrology can and can’t tell us, and the profound connection between the stars above and the systems we live within. Maggie also shares the one simple practice she recommends for anyone wanting to deepen their relationship with astrology — and it starts tonight, with the moon.

1.20: Doubt and Devotion: A Conversation with Katie Belgard

I've never once experienced the voice of the sacred as condemning. Not once. So when my friend and colleague Katie Belgard says her doubt has been a doorway - not a disqualification - that lands as deeply true to me. Because if you're willing to swallow things whole, I'm not sure I want to be your guide. Katie is a political organizer and strategist whose work changes material conditions for real people. She came into goddess practice with questions and zero interest in trading one kind of certainty for another. She stayed because the practice kept turning her back toward her own inner knowing instead of handing her a manual. We talk about awe as a doorway. About altars found on the side of the road. About the difference between doubt and discernment - and why slowing down long enough to hear an answer you don't want is sometimes the whole practice. If you've felt drawn to the sacred but wondered whether your skepticism, your critical mind, or your grounded engagement with the world disqualifies you - this one's for you. This is the conversation I've wanted to have on this podcast from the beginning. I hope it finds you exactly when you need it.

1.19: Sacred Medicines & the Balance of Masculine and Feminine with Haley Lamberth

What does it mean to work with plant medicines as actual medicine - not spiritual bypassing, not escape, but deep healing work? In this episode, I sit down with medicine woman Haley Lamberth to talk about Iboga, Ibogaine, Ayahuasca, and Kambo - powerful medicines used for addiction recovery, trauma healing, and profound transformation. Haley shares how her path as an endurance athlete prepared her for the physical and spiritual ordeal of ceremony, why she's drawn to medicines that "hit like a truck," and what it looks like to hold space with reverence for lineage, earth, and ancestors. We explore the masculine and feminine qualities of different medicines - Ibogaine's unbending sternness versus Ayahuasca's nurturing presence - and why honoring both energies matters in healing work. This conversation gets real about the discomfort of transformation, the importance of sustainability in medicine work, and how childhood connections to rocks and trees can become a lifelong path of communion with the sacred. Drawing from her mixed heritage including Ojibwa roots, Haley speaks about why honoring the earth isn't just practice for her - it's obvious, foundational. If you've ever been curious about plant medicine or wondered how the divine feminine and masculine show up in ceremony, this episode is for you.

1.18: Why Systems Work Needs the Sacred: A Conversation with Daniela Papi-Thornton

What if the systems change work we've been doing has been missing something essential? What if the sacred feminine isn't just related to systems thinking - what if it is the same work, calling us by different names? In this conversation, Tuesday sits down with educator and systems change leader, Daniela Papi-Thornton, to explore the territory where strategic thinking meets spiritual wisdom. Daniela has taught at institutions like Yale and Oxford, but she's done hiding the sacred dimensions of transformation work - and in this episode, she shares what happened when she stopped contorting herself to fit into conventional professional spaces. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

1.17: The Risk of Feeling Safe

What if the thing keeping you stuck isn't actually lack of safety - but your refusal to feel safe? In this solo episode, Tuesday gets real about how chronic unsafety has become a habit, a badge of honor, a defense mechanism against our own transformation. She explores the three doorways where risking safety changes everything: when you begin something new, when you claim what's already true, and when you allow necessary endings. This isn't about denying real danger or bypassing actual threats - it's about choosing internal sovereignty even in the midst of precariousness. If you've been waiting to feel safe before you start, before you claim your truth, before you let go - this episode will challenge you: What becomes possible when you risk feeling safe right now?
