The Nature of Invisible Things

This podcast episode features my conversation with clinical therapist, tarot reader, and art witch Mallory Dowd about the intelligence of grief and self-doubt, and their relationship to personal growth. Mallory shared her personal experiences with grief, including the loss of her grandmother and a close friend, which led to a significant spiritual awakening and her current work as a therapist and spiritual mentor. Our discussion explored how self-doubt can serve as a signpost for important life changes, with Mallory describing it as an intelligence that invites slowness and the embrace of uncertainty. We examined tarot cards representing different flavors of self-doubt, including the Fives, Sixes, and Sevens, and discussed practical strategies for working with self-doubt, practicing self-compassion, and connecting with nature.
