From Activism to Awakening: Life, Death, and Conscious Evolution with Stephanie Trager

from Inner Skilled

(Ai assist:) Stephanie Trager is a transformational coach and medicine woman and together we explore the shifting landscapes of life, death, and conscious living. Amidst a personal experience of loss, Stephanie shares her unique perspective on death as a sacred portal, shaped by a near-death experience at 17 months and her multi-dimensional journey. The conversation delves into the nature of identity, suffering, and the eternal cycle of existence. We touch on her activist past, including a tragic encounter with corporate logging, and her evolution into conscious influence through coaching and impact investing. The episode concludes with insights on opting out of societal games, the power of intentional words, and a call for wayfinders to shape a new world.
