Off The Grid: Leaving Social Media

When ChatGPT launched in 2022, I noticed a few spiritual practitioners talking about its ‘oracular consciousness’ and I wondered… is that a thing??
Today I’m joined by Casey Zabala of Modern Witches to talk about how AI is reshaping mystical practices in real time — and why that’s harming our intuition and agency.
Tune in to hear us discuss:
How Casey & I have used AI in the past
The embedded inequity and colonial power dynamics of chatbots
The astrology of 2026 and how it’s very AI-coded
Why using AI might be ruining your intuition
Considering where your body and the earth exist in relationship to AI
Holding space for the connective potential of these technologies
What an oracle actually is
And if you want to join the conversation... come chat with us on Substack! I've opened a community thread for paid subscribers. For only $5, it's a welcoming space to share your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and questions about AI with other considerate creatives. I'll also be chiming in to cheer and answer questions.

How are we feeling about AI these days, friends?

Ambivalent? Over it? Hopefully curious? 🧐

Today on the show, we’re kicking off a 3-week AI series, where we’ll explore the good, bad and ugly of LLMs.

Our first guest is Mel Mitchell-Jackson — who returns to the show to share their practice of AI Sobriety.

We get into why AI is a labor issue, how it’s impacting our creativity, and why we’re hopeful that locally-hosted small language models might save the day.

We also talk about addiction, accessibility, and why I’m practicing GPT-sobriety this year.

If you’ve had a tough 2026 so far, this episode is for you.

Today, I’m sharing a nuanced and practical chat with Akua Nyame-Mensah about how we can move from a reactive to a reflective mindset and shift our trajectory in the process.
Tune in to hear Akua’s advice for changing the narrative of your business — without repressing or ignoring what’s happening in the world (or your body or your bank account).
I also share some examples of how I reshaped my relationship to money through storytelling and ritual.
You can hear the whole conversation in the Clubhouse right here. Thanks to Akua for joining me on the show!
