Hello, beautiful souls. ✨This episode feels like a coming out to myself, and to you, with a side of myself that I haven't let myself own publicly beyond my words, and it's all about why I'm not a Girl, as a grown woman, and why I'm not a "Girl's Girl". Things we get into: ⭐️Girls' girl spaces where women don't heal, grow or hold each other accountable, and performative social media support and subconscious competitiveness that lingers here.⭐️ Why I despise anything about calling men “daddy”, and why the daddy kink a lot of women talk about makes me feel sad, touching on the male collective wounding and the father wound.⭐️ How my ADHD was showing up whilst at university, and how part of our neurospicy experience is that we can coast and suppress our full potential.⭐️ How the wounded maiden archetype manifests and its impact on our spiritual journeys, including within twin flame narratives.⭐️ Wild woman awakening related to our ancestries, including decolonial and depatriarchying work⭐️ Why we avoid being in our bodies as spiritual women, and what lingers underneath spiritual bypassing spaces.⭐️ The gruelling process of embodying your Wild Power.Additional resources:If you are new to feminine archetypes, here's a website that goes into them.Books mentioned:Women Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estes.The article I wrote on Twin Flames.✯✯✯Thank you for being here.💗Please like / share / follow/rate this podcast, it helps to boost it so it can reach more beautiful souls and helps me with my journey of being a creative soulpreneur too!✯✯✯Check out more of my work, including my Substack newsletter and books out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠.📱Let's connect:✨ Instagram & Threads - @bylaurelsibanda✨  TikTok - @thespiritualpoetessDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

Surrender. The final affirmation of this year.Hello beautiful souls, this is the last episode of 2025, and it's a fun conversation all about surrender and letting go of your old selves to embrace who you need to become to achieve what you are aiming for in 2026.We also talk about:🌿 Desire as sacred, get curious about them.🌿 How the mother wound affects how you feel about yourself.🌿 Preparing your own journey with your own project / launch your podcast.🌿 Doing your thing in your own way, and masking as exhausting.🌿 Being a spiritual artist and accepting that you do not work by the algorithm, and setting your own rhythm and schedule.My journey with getting to launch this podcast, and I seriously encourage you to launch your own.The story of Skeleton Woman:She’s a woman who was thrown into the ocean by her father, and on the way down she breaks her bones. She spends years lying at the bottom of the ocean as a broken, twisted-up skeleton, looking up at life above her. Until she is accidentally saved by a fisherman. He is first terrified of her but ends up tending to her skeletal frame, setting her bones straight again. He is also in sorrow and loneliness, and when he sleeps, he cries. She sees this and starts to drink his tears, listening to the drumming of his heart. As she does so, she regains her flesh again and becomes a whole woman again. They live happily ever after. Skeleton Woman represents and embodies the life/death/life cycle. That to live is to accept death as a natural process.✯✯✯Thank you for being here.💗Please like / share / follow/rate this podcast, it helps to boost it so it can reach more beautiful souls and helps me with my journey of being a creative soulpreneur too!✯✯✯Check out more of my work, including my Substack newsletter and books, out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠.📱Let's connect:✨ Instagram & Threads - @bylaurelsibanda✨  TikTok - @thespiritualpoetessDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

This episode is all about how ancestral work helps us feel more grounded with our time on Earth. We often feel so lost and deeply unbelonging when we awaken, and it can lead us to feel like we want to leave this experience entirely. But when we connect to our ancestries, it can help us with feeling more here, leading to a much more grounded and embodied spiritual journey. I'll be coming back to talk some more about this as I experience it. For now, check out my Decolonising Your Psyche journal that can help you with reclaiming your ancestry beyond the lies of colonisation about our beautiful uniqueness. ✯✯✯Check out more of my work, including my Substack newsletter and poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Let's talk about being queer and how not fitting in is exactly why we're the ones who are the real MVPs during humanity’s awakening.In this episode, we talk about how the crazy ones, the outliers, the misfits are going to save this planet.

Things we get into:💗 - Integration work as a journey of not throwing away our ego selves.💗 - How the false matrix system is rigged towards us vs them mentalities and identity wars.💗 - We talk a lot about queerness as a magical journey and how we've been taught to be ashamed of our own bodies and how this affects our sex lives.💗 - How our relationships shift as we awaken and are judged by blood family.★ Some post-recording corrections: blue people from Avatar = N’avi★ Mbuya Nehanda’s words, “My bones will rise again”Books I recommended: Between Life & Death by Dolores Cannon.✯✯✯Check out more of my work, including my Substack newsletter and poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠.📱Let's connect:✨ Instagram & Threads - @bylaurelsibanda✨  TikTok - @thespiritualpoetess - TikTokDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

Bonus episode. 🌺This is one of those episodes you're going to want to grab your favourite beverage, your notebook and a pen and write down some of the questions I proposed for you to reflect on during and after.So many of us want community, but we've got to accept that it is a huge responsibility.In this bonus episode, we're talking about why it's important to heal when you're desiring or creating community.I talk about why we can want big families and the “it takes a village” approach towards raising the child, but is the village healthy?I share this from the perspective of my African upbringing, too, where the “it takes a village” originates from. We have it within us to create beautiful, thriving communities that require each of us to do our part in creating them.Episode mentioned:Healing To Have Genuine & Intimate Connections.✯✯✯Check out more of my work, including my Substack newsletter and poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠.📱Let's connect:✨ Instagram & Threads - @bylaurelsibanda✨  TikTok - @thespiritualpoetess - TikTokDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

We're on season two! ♥︎This episode is all about turning your creative process & spiritual work into a business.🌸 I talk about the journey of being a soulpreneur as I have focused on turning my creative and spiritual work into my business. 🌿 We often see the highlight reels of our favourite creators and spiritual coaches, and influencers, and we miss the BTS that goes on with embracing this journey. 🌸 In this episode, I talk about embracing making money from your work, allowing yourself to charge beyond the "market prices", and facing stories related to money. We go into the importance of taking your work seriously and accepting that your life will often have to change when you surrender to the journey that your soul is here for.🌿 We can get so caught up in comparison often that it starts to affect how we feel about our paths, and when we are also embracing our awakening journeys, we can miss how we are showing up in incredible ways because we're seeing what someone else is doing. 🌸 All of this is what we get into with this episode, along with my nine months of nomadic living and allowing my brain to rest and adjust to spending some time in countries that were not English-speaking.

🌸 REUPLOAD 🌸Last of the reuploads before we start the next season. Thank you for sticking around for this season! I'm excited to return with new episodes recorded from where I am today since this one! In this fun episode and last episode for 2024, we are talking about twin flames as a healing path and an opportunity to close out karmic cycles.I get nice and honest and vulnerable about the beginnings of my journey meeting the person I believed to be my first twin and the "mysterious white woman" who haunted my past self as I have needed to de-patriarchy and decolonise my psyche. The lesson for the divine feminine energy within the connection is owning our worth and remembering that twin flames are about our relationships with ourselves. ★. ★ ★ ★. ★ ★ Like / follow / rate and share this podcast with everyone you know.Check out my work, including my poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at ⁠[email protected]⁠.Let's connect:✨ @bylaurelsibanda - Threads✨  @thespiritualpoetess - TikTok✨ @bylaurelsibanda - InstagramDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

🌸 REUPLOAD 🌸Notes from when I first recorded this episode back in 2024: ♡ Yes, everyone is your twin flame, just as we are all each other's mirrors. At the same time, we are not synonyms and it's important to honour our differences. In this episode, we're talking about twin flames and how the key element of this journey is healing. I am big on having a grounded approach towards our spirituality, especially when it comes to the Twin Flame narrative. We talk about the importance of embracing your unique and individual path, regardless of being twin flames.

🌸 Re-upload 🌸We are all artists. For so many of us we can claim this in childhood when we can easily play and engage with our imaginations but we start to be separated from our artist / creative selves as we become adults and we start to feel the pressure to "grow up" and follow the adult script that makes the most sense.In the process, we lose who we are, and we start to forget and suppress our creativity. This then bleeds into how we feel about ourselves and life in general. We stifle our self-expression, and our lives start to be grey, no longer in the vibrancy that comes from owning all that we are.We can also lose touch with it through attachments that mean we're unable to embrace our artist selves.This episode is a conversation on my journey with being an artist and the different avenues and detours I have taken to get to this stage.Thank you for being here.❤️Like / follow / rate and share this podcast with everyone you know.Check out my work, including my poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at [email protected]'s connect:✨ @thespiritualpoetess - Threads✨  @thespiritualpoetess - TikTok✨ @bylaurelsibanda / @aquestforhomepodcast - InstagramDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

🌸RE-UPLOAD. 🌸✨ This is a fun, vulnerable episode on the topic of love and relationships. ✨I talk about love and what happens after you close out chapters in your life related to relationship wounds. I talk about what my ideal relationship looks like and how romantic relationships serve as a place for us to grow and further expand our consciousness together. We go into the importance of conscious relationships and how they become the grounds for breaking generational cycles, which only happens when you are aware of what has been happening within our lineages.

🌸 RE-UPLOAD. 🌸In this episode, we go into what has been underneath the procrastination and how it relates to the witch wound. We talk about downplaying our spiritual abilities by calling what we can do as spiritualists, "woo woo" and the labels of "crazy" for being awakening souls. Also, the experience of becoming the kind of person my past self was judging since my awakening. We also talk about curating your space to reflect what is most inspiring for you. We also talk about the aspects of the "Rest in your feminine" and "soft girl era" that are unhealthy, as they ultimately promote a weakened masculine within women and perpetuate patriarchy. This is mostly in the context of relationships. In this episode, I didn't cover how aspects of this can be healthy in terms of the environments you choose to enter into, however, especially when you break up with the struggle and allow yourself to embrace what is calm for your nervous system. This is something I will revisit for another episode.We talk about the importance of inner work and how ultimately, our relationships mirror what is in our subconscious.

🌸RE-UPLOAD.🌸In this episode, I talk about what can prevent us from creating our dream lives. I talk about part of my purpose here being to be free and embracing visibility. When we are living our best lives, we are not just doing it for ourselves but for our ancestors too.We get into how stories from childhood can influence the ways we view ourselves, and this ends up affecting our beliefs in our worthiness. Book I mentioned (completely missed the name of the author in the recording): Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents: How to Heal from Distant, Rejecting, Or Self-Involved Parents by Lindsay Gibson🔶 Post recording - At some point, I said "Unfortunately" over something that is not unfortunate at all.

🌸 RE-UPLOAD 🌸In this episode, I discuss how much of what we do as spiritual people, artists, or creators is about giving.We can miss this because we enjoy it, but it can leave us energetically unbalanced. We can be depleted, especially if we are not allowing ourselves to receive any rewards for the work that we do too. We must validate ourselves.I also talk about how what I am doing goes beyond myself, "think of the children", my discomfort watching Euphoria and the anxiety that technology and social media encourage, considering its effects on the younger generation. Also, my first experience of the Argos catalogue was when I moved to the UK.It's okay to receive - whatever that looks like. Let us allow ourselves to charge for our services and to let people buy our work. It's OK to let God take care of us, too. Also editor's note: podcasting when you're used to recording on TikTok (video format) is doing air quotes, then remembering that you, as the listene,r can't see them. Podcasting when you're a writer is speaking with my writer hat on and choosing synonyms in the middle of the conversation. It's a fun experience switching gears.Thank you for being here,Laurel 🌸Like / follow / rate and share this podcast with everyone you know.Check out my work, including my poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at [email protected]'s connect:✨ @thespiritualpoetess - Threads✨  @thespiritualpoetess - TikTok✨ @bylaurelsibanda / @aquestforhomepodcast - InstagramDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

🌸 RE-UPLOAD 🌸In this episode, we talk about the feelings of "being behind". We talk about what is happening as a collective right now with our energetic shifts, the 3D & 5D split, and the necessity of setting up boundaries. We talk about images of spirituality and not seeking to imitate what is ultimately someone else's journey, and why our egos can want to do this. You can be inspired whilst honouring that you are on your own journey. We talk about minding our lanes and questioning what is really for us.Spiritual teacher/video I mentioned:TIMELINE SPLIT - Humans Are Splitting into Different Dimensions - The AlchemistArticle I mentioned on spiritual bypassing:Thank you for being here,Laurel 💖Like / follow / rate and share this podcast with everyone you know.Check out my work, including my poetry books Patchwork and Mama, We Are Here, out now via my website ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.You can contact me via email for a hello or collaboration at [email protected]'s connect:✨ @thespiritualpoetess - Threads✨  @thespiritualpoetess - TikTok✨ @bylaurelsibanda / @aquestforhomepodcast - InstagramDisclaimer:The information provided in this podcast is for informational, educational, and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute medical, legal, psychological, or any other form of professional advice.

🌸 RE-UPLOAD. 🌸In this episode, I discuss how karma can be a good thing if we use it as an opportunity to break through and embody our higher selves. Even when our human egos try to fight against this, seeking a more black-and-white approach, we can see that ultimately, as we are all chosen to be here at this time and as a collective, we are all much better off when we are at our most joyful, healed and healing selves.  We can use the opportunities where our ignorance / being misinformed leads to pain and consequences of our actions to be inspired to learn and do better.

🌸 RE-UPLOAD.🌸In this episode, we talk about how there is no such thing as self-sabotage, using the artist journey and the mother wound as an example of when this happens.It might appear as such, but we are multifaceted and multidimensional, and parts of us may not always agree with one choice. We look into how unresolved wounds can appear as the reason you may appear to be sabotaging your journey.

🌸 REUPLOAD 🌸In this episode, I talk about navigating the 3D and feeling more comfortable in my soul work and healing our relationships from the past so we can have healthy relationships today.When we don't heal or address unresolved emotions leftover from the past, they influence our present relationships, leaving us unable to see each other. This can make us so lonely and isolated as we are living from our egos, ultimately. I also talk about why I'm against hitting children as discipline, all whilst going through an energy cleansing!

This feels like a good episode to return to as the reintroduction of this podcast. Thank you for sticking around for the beautiful souls who have been here since the beginning, and welcome to the new loves finding this journey. I took some time away as I was reconciling with life happenings, solidifying my focus with this podcast and doing some very much needed throat chakra clearing and heart healing too so I could continue to show up from a heart-centred space and less unconscious parts of the ego.I am not quite the same since I first recorded this episode - new information, things have changed, but the wisdom shared here remains. I look forward to showing up for you again weekly. I will be re-uploading some episodes from the previous launches, too. Thank you for being here. 💕🌸 We are talking about what the point of healing is. 🌸When you are not aware of what the point of the journey is, and you are in environments where this is not a regular conversation, your mind can easily be caught up in believing that you don't need to do this work. Or that it matters. When toxicity and dysfunction are normalised, you can start to perceive this as the norm. Our healing paths are about unpacking all the ways that the so-called "norm" is ultimately a manifestation of our wounded and hurting parts. When we choose to heal, we are shedding and releasing all that has been stopping us from truly embracing our soul paths and instead, allowing ourselves to experience who we came here to be, beyond the stories of the traumas, and cultural and societal conditions.
