Remember Why You Are Here

What if the door you’ve been pushing against for so long was never the one meant to open? There may be another way through, and it begins when you stop pressing harder and start noticing what's already here.
As the veil thins this autumn, and this month of seership continues to unfold, I’m sharing why the subtle approach is so often the one that shifts what feels immovable. In this episode we’ll explore how attuning to the subtle opens our perception of the Otherworld, why it matters so deeply for those of us who are sensitive, and how learning to read your own subtlety is at the heart of becoming a seer. I also guide you through a gentle somatic practice for feeling your own yes and no.
If you’ve been waiting for a breakthrough, I hope this meets you gently.

What if one of the oldest ways to reach your ancestors is already sitting in your kitchen?
I meant to record something new this week. Instead, a virus swept through my household, and the days of sage tea, elderberry syrup, and rest became an unplanned practice of ancestral herbalism. So I’m bringing back a teaching on one of my favorite topics: the particular magic of working with the plants your ancestors knew, especially now, as the veil thins and those who came before us draw near. I share three accessible ways to begin, from a simple research project to an offering at your own table.
Chances are you’ve been practicing ancestral plant medicine all along. This is an invitation to do it on purpose.

Every autumn, you hear people say the veil is thin. But what does that actually mean, on a tangible level, in your own life?
This episode revisits one of the most-watched videos on my YouTube channel, brought back now during one of those rare seasons when the invitation to deepen your seership feels especially strong. I explore what can happen when the veil between worlds grows thin: loved ones reaching out from the other side, psychic openings, creative outpourings, endings that feel like a kind of death, and the seeds you can plant now that will nourish you for years to come.
If you're feeling fall's particular magic and wondering what to do with it, consider this your field guide.

There's a moment right after you release the arrow when all you can do is trust its flight. That's exactly where this October finds many of us—mid-motion, waiting, and being asked to stay centered while something we've already set into motion makes its way home.
Tune into this month's intuitive reading to explore what it means to become your own seer this season: not just catching glimpses of what's beyond the veil, but getting honest about the patterns already playing out in your own life, so you can actually shift them. We talk about what's yours to carry and what isn't, why the doubts that creep up around something already launched don't mean anything's wrong, and how the trust you built this September is about to open a whole new layer of your intuitive gifts.
If you've been waiting to trust your own instincts again, this is your invitation. Because the deepest gift of becoming your own seer is realizing you could trust yourself all along.

(0:01) – This month's invitation: becoming your own seer, and finding your center
(1:18) – Our card for the month, and the question it's asking of us
(4:18) – The arrow already mid-flight, and why it's time to get out of your own way

(9:25) – Letting what you learned about yourself this fall be true
(10:16) – Becoming your own seer this month
(13:05) – The soul retrievals from this fall, and the abilities they're opening up
(16:11) – Why being honest with yourself is what grows your seership
(21:19) – Repairing your trust in your own instincts
(24:20) – Finding your center as your arrow comes in for a landing

There is a root that stretches back in time. Follow it far enough and you'll reach ancestors for whom you have no names—yet who hold the memories that can heal our world. As autumn thins the veil and asks us to remember what came before, I'm revisiting one of my favorite transmissions: a conversation about the deep ancestors, those who lived long before written history, and who are far more eager to speak with us than we might think.
I recorded this one back when my daughter was still just a little seed in my belly, and I'm returning to it now from inside the painted caves of the Dordogne in Southern France, still working on the very book these ancestors first called me to write seven years ago. In this episode, I share the story of the shamanic journey that changed everything for me, how a DNA test later confirmed what I'd felt in that vision, and how you can begin your own conversation with the deep ones of your lineage this season.
IN THE EPISODE
(00:01) – Meeting the deep ancestors from inside the caves of Southern France
(04:36) – Why fall is the season the veil grows thin
(06:40) – What makes an ancestor a "deep" ancestor
(09:56) – The ancient wisdom that's resurfacing now
(11:02) – The shamanic journey that led her to the caves of Southern France
(13:08) – A DNA test that confirmed the vision
(15:00) – How to start talking to your own deep ancestors
(17:07) – An invitation for this season
